San Francisco City Hall Wedding
This past Christmas Eve, I had the opportunity to photograph Meagan and Paul’s elopement at San Francisco City Hall. Their family and friends joined the for their wedding day celebration. Their ceremony was held in the gorgeous rotunda at the top of the grand staircase. We took photos in the many locations inside City Hall. The front door of City Hall is one of the most iconic locations inside. Marilyn Monroe and Joe Dimaggio were married at City Hall many years ago, and they were photographed at this very same front door.
Because it was a bit chilly, Meagan wore a beautiful winter white coat. Her hair was adorned with a feather fascinator. She wore her hair in a stunning updo. Paul wore a black slim fit suit.
When they mentioned that they wanted to bring their scooter, I was thrilled! The orange paint of the scooter perfectly matched the paint on the Golden Gate Bridge. What a wonderful coincidence! We had a rare sunny day in December and we took advantage of the beautiful weather.
Congrats to Meagan and Paul!
Hair by the amazing Jaclyn Jean.

I love the viewpoint from these, great perspective. The contrast effects and lighting are lovely!
I saw this superb set on GSS (linked above). Rockin!
The dress is BCBG… I only know because the beautiful bride is my sister! :)
Any chance we can find out where her gorgeous dress is from? I’m in love with it – along with the absolute joy and beauty portrayed in their very special day.
