For the last year we have been photographing Compass Real Estate Agents as they join the SF team :) It's been so much fun, especially since real estate agents are super friendly, personable and playful! We took most of these at beautiful Cavallo Point in Sausalito, the perfect backdrop to highlight all their stellar smiles! Here's just a little sample of some of the agents we've photographed so far. Enjoy :)

Almost four years ago we met Jessica at a bridal show in downtown San Francisco. We ended up chatting at our booth for what seemed like an hour together, hearing all about her upcoming wedding celebration at Carneros Inn in Napa and her wonderful baby son Issac. After having the privilege to photograph Jessica + Simon's wedding, we have documented birthday parties for their kids (and they've come to Juniper's), had ice cream parties in Sausalito and most recently, took family photos with their newest addition, adorable Asher, already running around like a pro! We spent the afternoon together in Glen Canyon, a wild hidden treasure of a park in San Francisco, filled with magical light.
After witnessing this family celebrate so many milestones, we feel that they are part of our extended family. And just like that first meeting where we talked and talked about our lives, after this photo sesh in the canyon, we found ourselves carried away in wonderful conversation with Jessica, while the kiddos played with their dad in the jungle gym. There's always so much to catch up on, and future playdates to plan :)
Hugs to this sweet crew! MUAH!

Martine + Vlad had an intimate gathering of family and friends to celebrate their wedding at Meadowood in Napa Valley. Elegant, joyous, and perfectly planned by their lovely wedding coordinator at Meadowood, Elizabeth Harris, the day was a pure distillation of wonderful love.
The morning was spent getting dolled up in their respective places, with such sweet calm that the pitter patter of the spring shower outside provided appropriately peaceful accompaniment. Martine + Vlad met for their first look, taking photos on the gorgeous grounds of Meadowood, and looked more glamorous than movie stars on the red carpet. The ceremony and reception followed, filled with sumptuous treats and drinks. Around dinner time, the newly married couple said goodbye to their guests and ran through the rain to their private dinner in the kitchen at the restaurant in Meadowood.
Martine + Vlad, congratulations darlings! You are married! We adore you and wish you all best in your beautiful life together.
xoxo,
Ariel + Sam

Where to start... Jen + Tim's wedding was The Best! These two, plus their beautiful crew of friends, really know how to throw a wedding! The day started out at the homes of two of their best friends, the gals brunching, doing hair and listening to sweet jams, while the boys played at a dudes only “campsite,” complete with camping chairs and trail maps. Super sweet!
Once everyone was perfectly dolled up, we hopped in vintage VW vans, Beach House blasting, to dance our way through Golden Gate Park, making stops here and there to take photos and cheers (with Solo Cups) the happy duo with lots of bubbly.
After our city tour, we made our way to Stable Cafe in the Mission, for their ceremony (which included a ring-warming ceremony and loving notes from Tim's high school basketball teacher) and reception, full of tearful toasts, delicious food and groovy dancing.
Congratulations Jen + Tim! Being part of your wedding day meant so much to us! We adore you both and wish you so much love!
