Heather and Steve Engagement

Heather and Steve decided to have their engagement session at Tilden Park in Berkeley. I was really excited because it was my first time there. The park was gorgeous with little bridges, creeks, and nooks and crannies perfect for taking pictures.

Heather and Steve are such a fun couple so relaxed and easy going. Steve was cracking jokes throughout the photo session. I was laughing so much I almost had a hard time photographing them.

Jennifer and Darren

On the richest and luckiest day of the decade Jennifer and Darren invited me to take part in their wedding. I think they will have a very "fat fat fat" ("wealthy, happy, and fruitful") future together.










The Fairmont in San Jose is where it all began for Jennifer and Darren.





Come back in October when they will be celebrating their Chinese wedding

Elaine and Datsun Wedding

I have been looking forward to Elaine and Datsun's wedding since I took their engagement photos earlier this month. They are such a fun couple. Their friends were just as fun too I felt like I have known them for a long time. Their wedding was at the First Congregational Church in Palo Alto follow by the receptions at Mings. Heres a few of my favorite moments from their wedding day.

























Thanks to my friend Auey Santos for helping me. Check out her blog for a few more photos.

Elaine and Datsun Engagement

Elaine and Datsun are getting married later this month. I can't wait for their wedding they are such a cool couple and so hot for each other. We met up this past weekend at the De Young Museum in Golden Gate park for their engagement session. They drove all the way down from Davis where it was sunny and warm to a sunny but chilly evening in SF. Thanks for braving the chilly weather you guys are troopers.

Asha and Ian

I met up with Asha and Ian late in the afternoon so we could catch some golden light for their photo session. When I arrived both Ian and Asha were full of smiles and ready to go. Asha was full of energy running around, and her little brother Ian was very curious checking out and tasting every blade of grass and leaf on the ground around him.

Asha is a born model. She is so photogenic.







Asha was showing me how high she can jump.





We had the funniest time trying to prevent Ian from eating the leaves, grass or anything green.





Asha is trying to make her little brother smile.



Nothing is more fun than a game of tag with dad.

Shiva, Samir, Anmol, and Arjun

Over the weekend Shiva's dad asked me to photograph Shiva and his three cousins who flew all the way from India to spend the summer with him. His cousins are so smart and so much fun. Can you believe they flew all the way from India to SF by themselves ? That's a really long flight.


I haven't seen Shiva since I photographed him last year. Look how fast he has grown up. Here he is with his new Spiderman bicycle.



It was Samir, Anmol, and Arjun's first trip to the US. They were so excited to see the beach and Golden Gate Bridge. They couldn't stop running and jumping around. It's not very often they see the ocean because they live in central India. Anmol said to me playing at the beach was the best part of their trip.





After Shiva finished attacking Samir he tried to attack me :)
