Beautiful spring day for such a sweet couple from Minnesota… much warmer here eh?! Check back in July to see their wedding from Hans Fahden.

You know those days where they don’t go exactly as planned but they are fun anyways? Kind of adventurous? I had one of those days last Sunday! I was set to meet Brad and Jamie at Coit Tower where they both were engaged. I was sitting in THE longest line of traffic to get to the top so I called Jamie to let her know I was there… but wasnt moving. She quickly informed me that they were the reason for the traffic… er…. actually the guy that Brad was helping was the reason.
Some guy face planted off his bike and Brad came to the rescue! Soon enough a fire truck and ambulance were on their way and the chance of ever making it to Coit Tower in the next 30 minutes were slim to none so I suggested we go to the next location to try to salvage what light we had left. And that we did. We explored the presidio and eventually made it back to Coit Tower with minutes of light left.
Thank you Jamie and Brad for going with the flow! Check back in May for their wedding at The Lodge at Sonoma.

Marie and Tom are so cute I can’t stand it. They were total naturals for the camera and at the end of the session Marie even admitted that she was nervous before the session… then said it was easy! They both share my love of sweets too: after the shoot we snacked at Bouchon Bakery. YUM! Check back in June for their wedding at Auberge du Soleil!

This might have been the FASTEST engagement session on record thanks to mother nature! I was set to meet Olivia and Jeff in St Helena for their engagement session. As I drove north on 29 the clouds were pitch black and and I could tell it was raining up there. I quickly called them to see if they left their hotel in Yountville yet. Plans quickly changed and I met them in Yountville instead to try to salvage their engagement session. All of these photos were taken between 9:03 – 9:27. By 9:20 it was pouring so we took cover at the French Laundry for a few more photos. I think they rocked it out despite the cold, wind and rain. THANK YOU both for bearing the elements with me!
Check back soon for their wedding photos.
