Maurice and Christina gave me so many pretty, pretty things to photograph this weekend. From four different gowns to Up adventure books to sneakers to their cute faces – I had the hardest time narrowing down what to share in this blog post! Their wedding was the result of master planning. Christina and Maurice thought […]

Cinnabar Hills Wedding Rainy San Jose

“Sometimes during college, Tram would ask me ‘When are we going to get married?’ but I didn’t even know what I was having for lunch! Years later, I can now confidently answer that I think we’re going to be married in a few minutes.” ^^A paraphrase from Allen’s vows Tram and Allen are the best. […]

Allen & Tram’s Rainy Wedding at Cinnabar Hills

I don’t know what it was about 2001, but it was a good year to have twins. I’ve photographed three sets of twins this spring and I’ve been loving it! Senior photos are extra fun with your best friend. And Rosie and Georgie are truly best friends. So far, the longest time they’ve spent apart […]

Benicia Street Mansion Wedding Harry Potter

I met Joe and Courtney through Steve, one of Joe’s childhood friends. Steve and I shot weddings together in early 2018 before he moved to Southern California. It was so much fun to see him again, this time in front of the camera! Steven was a dope groomsman and he really introduced me to a […]

Berkeley Rose Garden Monte Vista High school senior photos Caili Chung

Sienna is a doll. I think that’s the best way to characterize her. Her hair, her skin, her teeth, just everything about her! I didn’t edit her skin at all. That’s how perfect she is naturally. Seriously, there’s not a more photogenic person out there. We planned to shoot at UC Berkeley’s Botanical Gardens, but […]

Crissy Fields Car Engagement Photos San Francisco

Dalena and Brian are the coolest people. Shooting with them really just feels like hanging out with friends. I met Dalena a year ago when she dyed my hair (and did an amazing job with it. Link to her bomb AF work here!) You’re with your hairstylist for a few hours, and it was great […]

Lovers Lane Presidio SF Engagement Caili Chung

For sure bring your pets to your photography session! Past couples and seniors have included them in sessions before and it’s always a good time. I love love love your furry friends! And I have no allergies + I’m always down to run around with them. If your dogs don’t require constant attention, they can […]

Bring Your Furry Friends

I love it when my seniors take their senior photos with friends! Photoshoots are meant to be a lot of fun anyway, but they’re even more fun when you can share the experience with your best buds. You can bounce off of each other’s energy and draw out really genuine laughs together. AND get photos […]

Baker Beach San Francisco Senior Caili Chung Photography

Kristi has perfected the gentle hair wave. Serious goals. I brought this up when we met for her order and reveal session, and learned that she had had it done soon before our shoot. Does it show or what? Kristi has grown up in San Francisco so taking her senior photos at Baker Beach was […]
