Saturday night I met Michael and Mara at Grace Cathedral in Nob Hill. Until recently Mara lived just across the street from the church, so this area is very close to her heart. We had a big agenda for the night: 3 locations in two hours! So we quickly left Nob Hill and drove towards the Palace of Fine Arts. After parking the car we were so deep in conversation that we didnt realize the whole building was under renovation! Scaffolding and all! A little disappointing but we made the best of a bad situation and found small spots that were not covered in steel and wood planks. And luckily for us we found some trees that had a cherry blossom feel that were still in bloom. (Mara & Michael both expressed in our first meeting how nice it would be to find some cherry blossoms… so when they all bloomed over a month ago I was crossing my fingers to find some trees still in bloom!)
Our last location was at the Marin Headlands, where Michael proposed to Mara. In the time we waited for the tourists to subside I asked Michael if he had ever explored past this point in the road. Neither of us had. So I did what any photographer would do when we still had sunset light… I went exploring (thanks for letting me guys!) We ended up on a one way windy road thinking we would be on it forever! But we found some old forts and beautiful rolling hills. I’m glad we did, some of my favorite photos were at the end!
Check back in August for Mara and Michaels wedding. Its at this adorable church on the peninsula…. straight out of a movie!
One of my favs even though its soft!
