I cannot say enough wonderful things about the newborn photo session... everything about it was so sweet and perfect from the nursery to the plush blankets wrapped around darling Audrey! These photos just melt my heart!... It was so hard for me to decide what photos to post because everyone just makes you smile :) Thank you baby Audrey for being such a wonderful model and congrats to Mama and Dad!

Classic San Francisco Engagement Session... |Bay Area Wedding Photographer

Back at the end of July (which seems forever ago!) I photographed this amazing couple Mary and Ryan for their engagement session! We thought it would be fun to capture "A Day in the Life" of these two around the Marina in San Francisco. We met at The Grove for some yummy coffee and treats before taking to the streets for SF and ending up at Crissy Field with classic views of the Golden Gate :) These two are awesome, fabulous and totally fun... but I think my favorite part about them was they way they made each other laugh! They crack each other up and the laughter was contagious! So many good times!!!

I will be sharing there amazing Fort Mason wedding later this week... but for now enjoy these photos!

Mary and Ryan, thank you for being the awesome couple that you are! My day with you was so much fun! XO

Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk Engagement Session... |Bay Area Wedding Photographer

One of the best things about engagement sessions is you get such great one on one time with the bride and groom before the wedding and it is all fun and laughs! This engagement session was no different... total blast and a lot of great laughs :) Jilian, Dan and I walked up and down the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk snapping fun photos, eating cotton candy, and getting our feet wet in the water. I am so excited to photograph this wedding and send more time with these guys! XO
