Jeannie and Joshua Engagement | Fort Point

Jeannie and Joshua flew all the way from Seattle to be greeted by pouring down rain in San Fransisco on the day of their engagement shoot. Since our original location, Crissy Field, definitely wasn't going to work I thought of Fort Point under the Golden Gate Bridge. At Fort Point the lighting and structural aspects were perfect. I asked them to change into more formal wear for some of the pictures to compliment the background and the shoot went along without a hitch. This was my first time shooting at Fort Point and I really enjoyed it as did they.

Cheryl and Scott Engagement | Coit Tower | North Beach

Cheryl and Scott were a great couple to shoot for. They are both working at UC Davis, but travel here to San Fransisco for work conventions. On one of their trips down here we met up for the engagement session. Even though Scott was a little nervous at first he was much more comfortable by the end which made for some amazing pictures. Their wedding will be at Westin Saint Francis in San Fransisco and I am looking forward to capturing their wedding on camera.

Daisy & Edward Engagement | UC Davis

What a fabulous day it was to visit my alma mater UC Davis! Daisy and Edward met at UC Davis and Edward proposed to her there as well, right in front of the water fountain. Naturally, that was where they chose to take their engagement pictures. The campus was not only a beautiful setting, but held a lot of meaning for them and myself. This couple is particularly special to me since Edward is the brother of one of my close friends. I can't wait to see them as bride and groom!

Anita & Mike Engagement | San Francisco City Hall | San Francisco Library

"Oh no, it's pouring outside again! Today is our engagement day!" Anita worried. "Don't worry! Let's have it done somewhere indoor, how about San Francisco City Hall?" I said. That was how we started the engagement session of Anita and Mike. On the weekday, you would find many new couples getting married in the City Hall, but there are some quiet spots in the building can be a perfect background for pictures. Anita also suggested to go to SF library for some shots, what a great idea! That was my first time shooting in library. We had to keep our tone down to avoid disturbing others, so I used my body language and showed them how to pose between the bookshelves, so hilarious!
