Lucy and Luke trekked all the way from Australia to get married at our amazing City Hall here in San Francisco. After their ceremony at City Hall, we headed over to a record store for some fun wedding portraits. Lucy and Luke are huge music fans, and Luke’s in a band, so this was the perfect setting to show their love for music. Congrats to Lucy and Luke!

This has been a really busy year for us, and in addition to large weekend weddings, I have the pleasure of photographing San Francisco City Hall weddings. One of my favorite aspects of the City Hall weddings is that I get to meet people from all over the US and the world. Earlier this year I photographed the wedding of Frances and Duff, who flew in from Beijing, China to be married at our amazingly beautiful City Hall. After their ceremony, we drove out to the Sutro Bath ruins for their portrait session.

A few months ago I had the pleasure of photographing this amazing punk rock wedding tablescape by the fabulous Karin Woodward. From the corseted table cloths and t-shirts, to safety pink details, black martini glasses with skulls, and studded belt napkin holders, Karin completely rocked this tablescape! Too bad I didn’t know Karin when Ray and I were married because we would have loved to have had this at our wedding. Sometimes you just need an antidote to stale and boring wedding decor, and this is the perfect antidote to that.

You may remember Chenin and Nick from their fabulous NYC engagement session. They were married at the beautiful Landmark Art & Garden Center in Tiburon and a reception at the Corinthian Yacht Club. The best way for me to describe their wedding was relaxed elegance, from the khaki colored suits for the guys, the ocean theme with seashells mixed with flowers, everything had a light, clean, elegant feel. Nicole Ancelovici-Lenihan did an amazing job planning the wedding. The amazing Nancy Liu Chin worked her magic with her floral design.
Rabbi Charles Familant really set the tone for the entire day with his ceremony. He told the story of a man who is lost in a forest. He runs into a woman who is also lost and can’t find her way out. They realize that they can only find their way by staying together, which is a nice metaphor for the journey that Chenin and Nick are starting in their lives. It’s also a great reminder for the rest of married folks — that we have to work together with our partner.
People often ask us where our favorite weddings have been. But I always tell people, it’s not about the venue, it’s about the people — the family and friends are what truly make a wedding spectacular. And this was definitely the case at Chenin and Nick’s wedding.

You may remember Jess and Pontus from their Conservatory of Flowers wedding. Instead of an engagement session, they opted for a “We Did” session about a month a few months after their wedding. What’s great about a “We Did” session is that you get to wear your wedding dress again!
It was great spending time with Jess and Pontus again and getting to know them better. We had such a great time chatting about architecture, art, design, and life in general! We headed out to the Golden Gate Bridge and the Marin Headlands for lots of variety and gritty textures.
