Ragen & Mitch's Baker Beach Engagement Session | San Francisco Bay Area Wedding Photographer

I am so excited to photograph the wedding of these two lovely people next fall just outside of my hometown of Sacramento! For their engagement session we chose Baker Beach in San Francisco in large part so that they could bring their sweet one year old labradoodle, Fitz! We had the best time playing ball, running around in the sand, and cozying up to stay warm (them, not me, lol). Ragen and Mitch asked if they could bring along one prop - American and Canadian flags! I had fun incorporating them into their engagement session :)

Kennedy & Brian | Los Altos History Museum | San Francisco Bay Area Wedding Photographer

It's impossible to find cooler people than Kennedy and Brian. You can hold me to that. These two were some of my favorites to work with this year and as I look back on these images I find myself smiling without even thinking. Their wedding took place place at the beautiful Los Altos History Museum in early summer. Lots of laughs, a few happy tears, a designer ice cream cart by Milk & Wood, a beautiful Hawaiian dance by Kennedy's mom, and a ton of love...what's what their wedding day was all about and I am so honored that I got to be their photographer.

Lindsey & Brian's Saratoga Springs Wedding | San Francisco Bay Area Wedding Photographer

Lindsey & Brian's day was nothing short of magical beneath the towering redwoods of the Santa Cruz mountains. Tucked away on a winding road in Saratoga, Saratoga Springs is a mountain oasis a world away from Silicon Valley. As you step out of your car the first things you notice are the drop in temperature and the smell of fresh greenery. The entire area exudes romance, similar to that of a fairy tale. Add in two beautiful people (Lindsey and Brian, obviously) and it's a perfect location for a wedding.

I lost count of the times I laughed alongside these two. From the moment we met at a Starbucks in Los Altos to discuss their wedding we were all at ease, fast friends. It was an honor and a privilege to document their day, as easy at that was with so much beauty -inner and outer- surrounding us.

Congratulations you two!
