Land’s End / Sutro Baths area is definitely a popular choice for sessions and the reason I never get tired of shooting there is I never know what kind of weather we are going to get. As someone who isn’t originally from the Bay, Karl the Fog still confuses me so much. It seems backwards that the summer months in SF are always cold and foggy and the best sunsets happen in winter!! For Maddie & Stephen’s session, I left the 112 degree heat in Sacramento and by the time I got to the beach it was only 65f - so wild!!

I’ve been dreaming of doing a Tahoe session since moving to Sacramento last year, so when Perry let me know they were in town visiting family and wanted to do their session there I was stoked! As I was driving around Donner Lake, I actually pulled off the side of the road to check my phone for a new trail, and BAM! right there in front of me was the most magical wooded area.

I met Kira and David out by Tomales Bay at the furthest point of Point Reyes. I’d never been this far out on the point before and the whole drive there was so pretty; I knew it was going to be an awesome session. Kira and David have done this hike multiple times while they were dating, so it was meaningful for them to get some photos here now that they are engaged.

Valerie and Sam, where to begin?! First thing to note is that yes, this is a real couple, and no, they are not in fact models hired for a wedding magazine. When Val first reached out to discuss their wedding day plans, I immediately searched up Ardenwood Historic Farms and started to envision all the dreamy photos we were going to capture.
