Tabitha + Sarn: Legion of Honor + Golden Gate Park Engagement

When it comes to engagement photos, should you choose classy and sophisticated, or fun and casual? Tabitha and Sarn chose both! We started at the Legion of Honor, for their all-black dress-up outfits. We arrived just before closing for a few photos in the courtyard, and took the rest around the exterior. The wind made it a bit extra chilly on this moody, overcast day, but it also added some drama, tossing Tabitha’s hair and skirt!

Our second location was the Rose Garden at Golden Gate Park. I love using this garden because it’s free and easy to access, and there are a variety of colors in bloom all year round. T&S changed into more comfortable and casual outfits and we used the many rows of roses to create some colorful, dreamy portraits together. I can’t wait for their wedding this summer!

Claudia + Freddy: Legion of Honor + Palace of Fine Arts Engagement

My first visit to the majestic Legion of Honor Museum in San Francisco was for this elegant and sophisticated engagement shoot with Claudia and Freddy. Their choice of outfits, sleek and all-black, made them really pop against the off-white walls and pillars of the building.

We switched gears and went for a more playful and casual vibe for their second photo location: the Palace of Fine Arts. We wandered around the park after the sun had fallen behind the structure, which gave us some soft dreamy light, and included their puppy in a few shots for some extra fun! Photographing this beautiful, effortless couple was an honor and showcasing the city’s gorgeous architecture made it even better.
