{ San Jose Backyard Wedding } Luisa + Michael

August 21, 2011 Posted in Weddings No comments

Luisa and Michael is the first Match.com couple that I’ve ever photographed. I must admit that their connection and love for each other is so genuine that I’d have never guessed that they’ve only known each other for a year. They’re practically a match made in heaven – Michael, a lawyer, and Luisa, a doctor to be.

Seventy close friends and relatives gathered in San Jose for an intimate wedding of this amazing couple. I’m extremely thankful for Michael and Luisa and their families for welcoming me into their home for this joyous occasion! Also, special thanks to Amanda Lock shooting this even with me.

{ San Francisco Shakespeare Garden Wedding } Jennifer + Ken

August 20, 2011 Posted in Weddings 1 comment

I had been looking forward to Jennifer and Ken’s wedding since the beginning of this year, especially after such an amazing engagement session we had back in early April. I knew it was going to be a long day (about 14 hours) because that’s the typical chinese wedding – jam packed with details, traditions, but amazing FUN! Best of all, Jennifer and I have a lot of mutual friends, which made the wedding even more special, getting to see many familiar faces whom I’ve lost touch with since graduating from High School.

 

Locations:
Legion of Honor  |  Japanese Tea Garden  |  Shakespeare Garden  |  King Wah Seafood Restaurant

{ San Francisco Maternity Photography } Yana + Dan

July 26, 2011 Posted in Maternity No comments

Remember Yana and Dan’s first maternity session I did a couple of months ago? Well, I recently returned to their home for round two! It was week thirty-two for Yana! (Edit: Correction… it was actually week thirty-five. Thanks to Yana for the clarification. I hope I didn’t scare any moms-to-be. ) We took advantage of all the different rooms in their charming home in the mission and got lots of wonderful shots. To top it off, there were some amazing original paintings hanging on the walls, painted by Dan’s late grandmother.

On to the photos:

{ Saint Simon Catholic Parish | Wedding Photography } Rebecca + Matt

June 22, 2011 Posted in Weddings 1 comment

Rebecca and Matt’s wedding marks the official start of my 2011 wedding season. If you haven’t seen their engagement session in AT&T Park, check it out here. With such spotty weather this spring, I was so glad the Sun decided to come out for their wedding. Cypress Hotel is one of my favorite hotels in Cupertino, so I was excited to be able to shoot there again. Their decor and ambience is excellent. We then headed over to Saint Simon Catholic Parish in Los Altos for the ceremony, where family and friends witness the union of this lovely couple.

Here’re some highlights:

{ San Francisco City Hall | Palace of Fine Arts Engagement Photography } Michelle + Henry

June 10, 2011 Posted in Engagement 3 comments

Since this session, I’ve fallen in love with shooting at the San Francisco City Hall. Although it was a Friday afternoon and the crowd got a little bit unmanageable with two weddings taking place, Michelle and Henry seemed very much at ease. They had an incredible amount of trust in me to capture the love between them, allowing me to set up lights and shoot creatively throughout the entire session. This was also my first time visting the Palace of Fine Arts since it reopened from renovation. It’s such an amazing place.
