Smoke bombs, caves, urban ruins, rock scrambling -- Casey + Daniel's engagement photo session at Lands End had it all! We had SO MUCH FUN with these two and felt a little bit rebellious with all our crazy green magic tricks ;) Congrats on your engagement C + D! You're the best!

Mo + Ryan: San Francisco Engagement Photography in the San Francisco Botanical Gardens & Baker Beach

Bowerbird Photography March 3, 2016

Mo + Ryan share a real romantic spark, not to mention they were almost struck by lightning when Ryan was going to propose! They had hiked to the top of Mt. Fuji to watch the sunrise, and ended up arriving as a storm swept in and feeling the heat of a bolt sear the air within a few feet of them. As Grease's John Travolta howls in the song, "You're the One I Want" --- "It's Electrifying!!"

M + R traded in a storm for a sunny day to serve as the backdrop to their engagement session in SF, including a stroll through the San Francisco Botanical Gardens, bursting with vibrant spring magnolia blooms, and then an excursion to Baker Beach with their pup, Lucca.

These two are such a perfect couple together. We love their energy and had a wonderful day with them. We're so excited for their wedding later this year -- it's going to be awesome!

Congratulations Mo + Ryan on your engagement!!

Alissa + Brent: Anniversary Photo Session at Stanford University in Palo Alto

Bowerbird Photography July 30, 2015

We met Alissa + Brent last year at Liz + Will's wedding, and these love birds made quite the impression: they were some of the most memorable guests on the dance floor! They had some totally amazing moves and we got some awesome photos of them in action.

We were so happy to connect with them again when Alissa contacted us about setting up an anniversary photo session at Stanford University in Palo Alto. After having such a great time with them strolling through campus, sharing laughs, cooling off in the shade, and stretching out on the green lawn under the sun, it was clear that they are the perfect partners for each other, both on and off the dance floor. :)

Hats off to you both! Congratulations on your anniversary!

Lauren + Steve: San Francisco Engagement Photography at Baker Beach and the Legion of Honor

Bowerbird Photography July 27, 2015

Lauren + Steve got engaged on the beach, with Steve setting up a treasure hunt for Lauren that ended with an actual treasure chest, holding a gorgeous diamond engagement ring. So it seemed utterly perfect to have their engagement photo session at another beach; this time, San Francisco's Baker Beach. It was a classic, romantic foggy summer afternoon, and these two love birds took the opportunity to get cozy in each other's arms. We could not have asked for a more wonderful duo to photograph. Not only do they look like super models (Lauren's outfits were stunning and so colorful!) but they are also incredibly playful. We were all laughing like goofballs and cracking jokes. By the time we arrived at the Legion of Honor, Lauren + Steve were having so much fun, they took the occasion to sprint, hand in hand, through the colonnades.

We're so excited to Lauren + Steve's wedding this fall! Congratulations sweeties!!
