Julie + Alberto: Engaged! (San Mateo, CA)

If I hadn't talked to Julie and Alberto before their e-Session, I would have thought that they were professional models! From the very first minute we started our photo session, they were just so natural in front of the camera! It was a very enjoyable shoot with the sweet couple, not to mention the cooperating weather, with the nice warm afternoon sun.

The Cheong Family: Leaving our footprints in San Francisco!

The Cheong family from Hong Kong visits San Francisco quite often, and the Palace of Fine Arts and the Baker Beach are no new places for them. However, this time, Christine decided to have me capture their family fun time at these beautiful spots during their summer visit. What a great idea to treasure a wonderful family vacation with such lovely images!
