Barbara + Michael Wedding - Allied Arts Guild Wedding / University Club of Palo Alto Wedding - {Bay Area Wedding Photographer}

Another HOT HOT Wedding!! But its hard to pay attention to the weather when you have such a sweet bride and groom to photograph in such a beautiful garden. I love that Barbara and Michael wanted to go to the Allied Arts Guild for their first look and photos. Such a quaint little spot with so many photo ops. Loved all the blue hydrangeas! Then we were off to the University Club to say their I do's, celebrate, do trivia, dance, and eat donuts! Yes thats right, they had mini-donuts for their guests from Harvey’s Mini Gourmet Donuts at their reception. Such a yummy delicious surprise. Thank you so much for having us capture your big day - such a great celebration for two people so clearly in love! Thank you to my amazing team for all your help! Kirsty & Emily you both are so amazing...thank you.

running free - Presidio, Lovers Lane - {Bay Area Family Photographer}

oh to be young...to have the energy to just run and run and run...and not even be out of breath. Loved shooting this sweet family again in the Presidio by the troll bridge (what this 5 year old told me they called it) aka Lover's Lane trail in the Presidio. I loved capturing this family's energy with one another and then just letting their kids be kids with Dad playing pretend with his daughter and letting her just run free. So nice to see, no structure, no forced smiling, just letting them be them. Thanks for having me there, I felt like I was spying on the perfect family day!
