Alison and Bryan are SO much fun. Need I remind you how I fell during their engagement session at Crissy Field last year and they kept me laughing all the way through to the end? While their wedding remained injury-free, Alison and Bryan again kept me and everybody else smiling all day long. This is a couple who, as they put it, cherishes one another so much that you can see it in every smiling moment. I think my favorite moment of the day though was during their first look at Lyon Street Steps when Alison was caught between laughing and crying as she saw Bryan for the first time. Seriously, it was one of the sweetest first looks that I've ever witnessed, and I still tear up a little when I look at those photos.
These two had a completely San Francisco wedding with portraits at Lyon Street Steps and their ceremony at Inspiration Point where guests were treated to an amazing view of the Marina and San Francisco Bay. Afterwords, family and friends walked across the street to the vaulted ceiling and open beams of the Presidio Golf Course for the reception. Adm and I have loved getting to know Alison and Bryan, which started over a little game of bean bags at Jaclyn and Andy's wedding last year, and we wish them nothing but love and happiness.

When it comes to engagement shoots, it's no standard day at the office for Adm and me. Even when we know the locations, the situations often hold many surprises, and Ngoc and Steve's session was no exception.











Today,
My dear friend Jamie and her husband Steve just had a baby! This is little Dylan Jacob at about two months, with his doggie brother Charlie at home in San Diego. Dylan is pretty stinking cute, especially when his mama dresses him like a snuggle bear.


A couple of weeks ago, my grandma asked me to take a picture of her, my aunt Carolyn, my cousin Stephanie, and Stephanie's baby Marcella - four generations in one photo. We also had time to do some photos of Steph, Bill and Marcella, who is just the cutest.



Bee and Stanley were out here visiting from Malaysia and even though they're technically married, they wanted to do some wedding portraits around the city. We hit up a lot of the San Francisco landmarks including the cable cars and Golden Gate Bridge, which we had to visit twice because the first time, it was completely covered in fog. These two, who have known each other since primary school and reconnected at a class reunion 15 years later, are planning a small wedding ceremony at home in December. We wish them lots of love and happiness.
