It is full on wedding season and it’s vacation season to boot. I can’t complain about either but it’s definitely caused a blog backlog – say that 3 times as fast as you can. So, to tide you over, or possibly just to tease you, here’s what’s in store for the blog. When I get back from VACATION, that is. That’s right, I’m off to British Columbia for a week! If I can catch up on “work” photos then maybe I’ll even get around to sharing some vacation photos. Until then…
Leila and Aaron’s gorgeous wedding was featured in the most recent issue of The Knot. It’s so fun to see them in print! You can see more details from their wedding here and here.
I am a photo editing machine but I still can’t seem to get them done fast enough. Here’s a little peek for Fung Yee and Harvey…
Just a quick peek from Michelle and Brian’s happy and colorful wedding at Dawn Ranch in Guerneville. Stay tuned for more…
It’s time for another Snap Happy Workshop! My dear friend and fabulous photographer, Annie and I are offering a Sit and Learn workshop on June 27. It’s always fun, everyone learns and laughs and makes new friends and we keep you well fed and hydrated to boot! If you’re interested or know someone who is, visit the Snap Happy site and sign up.
And speaking of the super talented Annie, mosey on over to her site and see the cute, cute pic she took of my little photographer-to-be. How awesome is that??
Fung Yee and Harvey fed me yummy treats at Tartine when we first met so I suspected early on that I would like them a lot. Then they showed up for their Golden Gate Park engagement session in Harvey’s awesome vintage car and proceeded to feed me candy the entire time. So now you know the way to my heart – if you are warm and funny and genuine and feed me delicious food then we’ll be fast friends. We started off at the Conservatory of Flowers…
Gorgeous, right? As I was choosing these photos I couldn’t seem to stop smiling. These two just make my heart sing. Next we got a few shots with Harvey’s car…
And then we found a beautiful patch of sun and flowers next to Spreckels Lake… these are my absolute favorites. (We also saw a gopher? Chipmunk? Something very cute burrowing a hole came out to say hello.)
I made Fung Yee and Harvey put on their serious faces…
The next one I liked in black and white and color and I couldn’t decide which I liked better so here it is both ways…
We said our good-byes (to each other and to the gopher/chipmunk) just as the sun set. Then I stole the rest of their candy and hauled butt to my car!
Fung Yee and Harvey are getting married at San Francisco City Hall (one of my absolute favorite wedding venues) in June and I can’t wait to see what kind of treats they bring me! Just kidding! Or am I?
Janet and Ishaan both attended Stanford University so it was a perfect pick for their engagement photos. I’m not at all familiar with the Stanford campus so I was excited to check it out. Janet and Ishaan had picked really lovely locations and we even hopped a fence to get a few shots on the golf course. (Shhhh, you are sworn to secrecy.)
First the Stanford Red Barn…
Then a pretty lake…
And then one of the many beautiful buildings…
I was adjusting my camera settings and just happened to catch Janet and Ishaan practicing their moves.
Christina and Michael decided to have their engagement session in one of their favorite spots – their neighborhood. And it’s a great neighborhood indeed. Which one? you ask. Well, after a discussion about San Francisco’s many petite ‘hoods, the conclusion was Corona Heights. We walked up one of the many tucked away staircases… it was so green and beautiful… so Mediterranean.

Then we headed up Tank Hill to take in some views. The sun graced us with it’s presence off and on which made the lighting a little challenging but well worth it.
Then back down the hill to their street where we dodged some cars and said our good-byes. They just bought a cafe, by the way, so you SF locals should check it out – Kafe 99 sqft. Awesome! Thanks for a fun time, you two!
