I love working in the city there are so many hidden gems, but also the beautiful landmarks give me a chance to be creative and change things up. This was our second time engagement session within a few months at the Palace of Fine Arts, and I was worried about creating the same look. However, that wasn’t the case. Arriving to this venue at the crack of dawn is always best. We basically had the whole space to ourselves. The highlight of the morning was going down to Crissy Field and shooting along the beach there.

I loved shooting this couples engagement photos. Blanca is going to be a beautiful bride, and her fiancé is hilarious! Like many of my couples initially they are nervous or unsure about taking professional photos. However, Antoine was so wonderful at keeping the day light and funny, and kept Blanca smiling. I try very hard to no be so much of a ‘strict posing’ photographer so that my couples can be as natural and comfortable as possible. See below for some of wonderful shots we captured.
