Alison Yin Wedding Photography Blog bio picture

Welcome to my Blog!

Hi!  I'm Alison Yin, and I'm a photographer based in Oakland, CA.  I grew up in Los Angeles, and I frequently travel throughout California photographing people and events.  I love traveling to new places and meeting people.

Photography is a way of life for me - I make pictures almost everyday.  I love capturing natural moments and the essence of personalities, and I use my documentary roots to tell the story of your wedding.  Please visit my wedding portfolio here.

You can see more of my work by viewing my editorial portfolio here.

I also share a photojournalism blog with my partner Adm Golub here.

I've created this blog so I can have another platform to share more photos and wedding related resources.  I love feedback so please feel free to leave comments!

Ginny + Sep Engagement

Ginny_Sep_043

Ginny and Sep’s engagement session marks the start of our 2010 wedding season, which is shaping up to be a BUSY one (only a few more spots left)!  Woohoo!  We had a great time photographing these two in San Francisco AND lucked out with a beautiful day!  Sep prefaced the session by letting us know that he doesn’t enjoy having his picture made, and by the end of the shoot, he was making suggestions for spots to be photographed in.  Now, that’s the power of the engagement session: not only do you come away with another set of beautiful photos, but if you’re shy in front of the camera, it’s great practice for your wedding day and you find out that we’re not so scary after all!

We started at Sutro Baths, which is amazing, and I’m embarrassed to admit that neither Adm or myself had been there so it was super fun to explore a new place.  We wandered in and out of the caves, climbed on mossy rocks, and jumped on springy bushes.  Next, we headed to the carousel at Golden Gate Park where I pulled out the viewfinder for a few photos with the square vintage look.  Ginny and Sep were so sweet to each other throughout the shoot, and they had great laughs!  Their wedding is going to be a blast!
