Jen + Skyler: Love in the City (San Francisco, CA)

From our first meeting, I already felt connected to this charming couple. Jen and Skyler are one of the couples we worked with this year who moved away from the Bay Area but will be coming back to this beautiful city of San Francisco to host their wedding.  

We first went to the Palace of Fine Arts, an all-time popular spot for engagements and weddings. The place was crowded with tourists as usual, but we got the charms from the couple for the nice weather and blue sky, which was all we needed! We had so much fun making some creative portraits with the light.

Our second stop was Crissy Field. The nice weather and the crimson Golden Gate Bridge made a perfect scene. I especially like how Jen's dress and hair danced in the wind! A gorgeous, romantic feeling, especially with the sunset lighting!

Can't wait to work with this lovely couple next year for their wedding!

Ashley + David: Cheers to our love! (Tiburon, CA)

What a beautiful day to saunter in the Tiburon town and the surroundings of Horseshoe Bay! It's also the day that marked one year before Ashley and David's wedding day! Such a nice thought to pick this special day for their engagement session. 

Ashley and David walked along the hillside where the charming looking Old St. Hilary's church sits on top, and wandered through the beautiful town of Tiburon. We then went to the pier at Cavallo Point by Horseshoe Bay, and the couple made their toast on the shore! 

I especially loved and enjoyed creating this set with the soft afternoon light! So dreamy and romantic. Although it will still be a while, but I'm already anxiously looking forward to this gorgeous and fun couple's wedding next year! 

Julie + Andy: Married! (Ben Lomond, CA)

Julie and Andy's wedding took place in the woods in Santa Cruz, which was surrounded by the serenity and beauty of nature. The wedding was very unique. Kudos to the couple and the wedding event planner, Mary, and her crew, who tended to the most minute details and making the flow of the entire day so smooth. And one of my favorites of the day was the origami decorations and ornaments. They are really beautifully done.

A few more of my fav's of the day were posted in the sneak peek.
