A Coastal Maternity Session | Bay Area Lifestyle Photographer
These two may look familiar since - they were also featured in the previous blog post of their wedding! (SEE BELOW).
It was so great to see these two again and while I couldn’t hug them and had a mask on 100% of the time (and they did too when we weren’t photographing) - it was SUCH a joy to get out of my house, take in some fresh air and talk to people outside of my household (all while maintaining social distancing protocols of course! - I’ve never been so glad of my 70-200 lens purchase till 2020 happened!).
A Tropical Fall Wedding at Kirigin Cellars | Bay Area Wedding Photographer
I have no idea why I haven’t yet blogged this wedding (shame on me!) , which took place in 2019 (oh, yeah I know why - the pandemic life).
I first briefly met Vicky & Terence at a bridal show in 2018 but it was because of Vicky’s close friend, Cree, who connected us. Cree is a wonderful wedding planner and just an all around great person that I was so lucky to have worked with.
Before their wedding day, Vicky & Terence planned a small tea ceremony at a very well known restaurant, Koi Palace, in Milpitas and I got to capture that and meet a few people before their wedding day (and got to take some yummy food home too!)
A Bay Area Backyard Wedding | Intimate Wedding Photographer
These two were originally to get married in Oakland at the Terrace Room in November (love that local venue) but like many of my 2020 couples - they’ve had to reimagine and come up with a plan B. Luckily, the groom’s parents had a home that would be a perfect backdrop for their newly laid plans.
An Intimate Bodega Bay Wedding | Bodega Bay Wedding Photographer
Oh these two! The first time we meet in 2019, we shared an amazing meal at a very fun & rambunctious and not to mentioned packed Thai restaurant (oh how I miss going to restaurants with friends). When they booked me, I was so elated and could not wait for their wedding in Monterey in November of 2020. And we all know what happened in 2020.
Los Angeles Engagement Session | Destination Weddings & Engagements
Leah & Wojtek’s engagement session was something I was looking forward to last year, but like many 2020 events - it too had to be reimagined. The original plan was to photograph these two in and around Big Sur - which holds a special place for them- but due to the fires within the Big Sur area (and really all over the western states and much of California) - we had to come up with a new location and plan.
