bay area engagement photographer | Mandela & Tim, featured!

This shoot makes me smile from ear to ear. I have been dying to share this and now I finally get to! Check out the feature on The Wedding Chicks for even more photos from the shoot! Mandela and Tim are such a cute couple and everything about this shoot, really captures their sweet personalities. We got a chance to collaborate with the amazingness that is Enjoy Events Co. We have been SO excited to finally work together and this was the perfect meet up. We brainstormed and incorporated Mandela and Timmy’s young, fun, urban style and wanted to bring it to life. We set the tone around the idea of Navajo prints mixed with the outdoors. Megan and Emily gathered some antique vessels, Navajo patterned pillows, hung a sheer backdrop, created a wildflower bouquet with a few vintage boxes to tie the look together. And this location could not have been more perfect! Lush rolling hills, crystal blue glistening water and oyster shells all over the floor added such a unique element to the shoot. I especially loved all the old shipwrecked buildings– can’t go wrong with that. I can’t wait for next weekend when we will all meet again for the wedding!

bay area engagement photography | Hannah & Josh

Ok I am so excited not only to share these photos but to have you meet two of the most fun loving and just pretty cool people ever, Hannah and Josh. Sometimes you meet people who you click with and these two are totally those people. We share alot in common from art to just being lovers of creativity and sold out members of the creative industry. Hannah and Josh met at Dreamworks, where they both work…and actually worked on the movie, Megamind together. How cute is that? I can definitely relate to falling in love with someone who shares the same passions and can motivate and challenge you creatively. From teepees to chickens…this session will definitely remain as one of my faves to date! So excited to shoot their wedding this summer!

bay area engagement photography | Caroline&Greg

Caroline and Greg are getting married in a couple months and I can’t wait for their wedding! We had quite the adventure walking the rolling hills of Tiburon and finding some really special spots that mean alot to the two of them. Could we be any more blessed living in the bay area? The locations alone are breathtaking not to mention the amazing company I get to share them with. 

San Francisco Wedding Photographer, Presidio | Layla&Tom

undefined

Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue, and a sixpence in her shoe! This was the theme that wrapped Layla and Tom’s San Francisco Wedding. Her grandmother’s ring, her new silk wedding dress, borrowed pearl earrings and the blue wedding cake– subtle details that made the day even more special. Everything about this wedding was done with class. The gorgeous church with its traditional flair, Layla’s lace cover up, the Rolls Royce, the flowers, and the backdrop of San Francisco — all came together so beautifully. It doesn’t take long to notice that Layla has a special spark about her, the joy she feels and the genuine heart that she has comes through instantly in her smile– you could see how happy she was to be marrying Tom. After all was said and done, Arash and I drove away convinced we just shared a night with one of the sweetest, gracious and genuine couples ever. Have I mentioned how much I love what I do?

bay area wedding photographer, los gatos | Kathryn & Jeff

undefinedJeff and Kathryn got married at Nestledown in Los Gatos, a gorgeous venue. Kathryn’s dress was her mother’s wedding dress and I thought that was super sweet and really special that she wore it on her wedding day. One of my favorite shots of the whole day was of Kathryn and her mom as she walked her down the isle to meet Jeff. There is so much joy in both their eyes. The fog set in super thick that night too which made for some pretty photos and I just LOVED shooting among the birch trees.

bay area wedding photographer, winters | Zoe & Jon

 

undefined Zoe & Jon’s wedding was one of my favorites that I had the honor of shooting with Jose Villa. The location was Winters, CA at the gorgeous Bear Flag Farm. The farm was filled with lovely lavendar fields, citrus trees and the perfect touch of vintage elements–this is a photographer’s dream location. The wedding itself was filled with unique DIY elements like custom illustrated invites, create-your-own cocktail menu, pretty patterned seating tags and little notes on every straw. There was so much eye candy at this wedding from Zoe’s Vera Wang dress to the cake toppers, and all the floral arrangements–loved it all! undefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefined
