Karina + Victor Engagement Session | San Francisco Bay Area Wedding Photography

Karina and Victor are getting married this week!  We had so much fun together exploring the Mission area of  San Francisco.  Using Balmy Alley as a backdrop with all the colorful murals made for some wonderful pictures.   I couldn’t have enjoyed any area of  SF more for an engagement session since I love Mexican culture.  Thanks for creating these images with me, you both look amazing.  I’m really looking forward to capturing your wedding!

Allyson & Nate’s Enchanted Wedding | Santa Cruz Mountains | SF Bay Area Wedding Photography

Here’s a peek into Allyson and Nate’s absolutely enchanting wedding.  On the full moon of June we gathered in a redwood grove high in the mountains of Santa Cruz where glittery stars and moons hung from branches and owl’s cast their magic spell.  It was truly a mid-summer nights dream.  I’ve never seen creative talent like Allyson’s.  Every charming detail was hand made by her reflecting the story of their relationship and love of nature.   I hope my pictures captured a  glimpse into the magic of their wonder-filled celebration.

Neither of these pictures would have been possible without working with the talented photographer  Julie Kay on this wedding.

This photo placed 8th!  Judges comments: “Not your typical receiving line! Really funny picture- it made me laugh. Good seeing by the photographer.”
