We spent last weekend on retreat, dreaming, planning and growing. It was a beautiful gathering with close friends, filled with time in nature, open conversation and lots of delicious shared meals.

We take family photos of Melissa and her adorable son Hai almost every year and this time before their family session started, we took some time to take Melissa's headshot. Melissa is launching her own consulting business and we are so excited for her! Congratulations Melissa :)

Every year we have the pleasure of photographing two of our fave people, Melissa + Hai. This year we met with them on a gorgeous Sunday in Golden Gate Park at Stow Lake, to take family photos. It's been such an honor to photograph Hai as he grows, both in height and also from a sweet little boy to a wonderful young gentleman. We have so much fun with these two and look forward to many more years of afternoons with them in the sunshine, celebrating their beautiful family.

Hilary + Ryan's wedding reception was an elegant and relaxed celebration at the SF Film Centre in the Presidio. Everyone sat along one long table, sharing stories about the happy couple and enjoying a delicious meal. Then came dancing and cake, the perfect finale to a wonderful wedding.
Congratulations Hilary + Ryan! As you can tell from these photos, Mr. DJ (Hilary's pups) totally approves of the newlyweds :)

Hilary + Ryan's love story is straight out of a fairy tale. These two love birds dated in high school and years later reunited at their high school reunion. Their bond was so meant to be! On Valentine's Day, they pledged their love for each other, surrounded by their friends and family, at the SF Film Centre in San Francisco.
Hilary's wonderful pup, DJ, walked the bride down the isle, to the music of a fantastic Balinese Gamelan Band. The ceremony was officiated by one of Hilary's dearest friends and there was not a dry eye in sight throughout their whole sweet ceremony. It could not have been a more gorgeous day!
We hope you enjoy this peek into Hilary + Ryan's first-look and wedding ceremony. More photos coming soon :)
Congratulations Hilary + Ryan!! We are thrilled for you two!!
