Treasure Island SF Engagement Session Caili Chung Photography

This engagement shoot reminds me of the 20th Century. Just everything is so classy and timeless. From Ingrid’s pumps and curly hair to Marcos’s car— just EVERYTHING. And Ingrid and Marcos are absolutely wonderful. They make each other laugh so much. You get the best view of the San Francisco skyline from Treasure island, but […]

Brady & Sarah’s Engagement Session at Coyote Peak & Facebook

I had absolutely no idea what to do with my camera. The only button whose function I was aware of was the shutter button (the button you press to take the picture). Everything else was completely foreign to me, so I did not bother with it. The camera settings I used were whatever settings the […]

When Alicia said she was getting married at Big Cottonwood Canyon and she really wanted to capture the beauty of this mountain, my heart sang.

Salt Lake Cactus & Tropicals Wedding Caili Chung

Love is real. This wedding could have convinced any nonbeliever of that. And I’ve been itching to share these images. I’ve been sharing them with all my friends and family behind the scenes, and everyone commented with, “Oh, they look so in love” or “Wow, she’s gorgeous.” This day had all the spectrum of beautiful […]

Tiffany and Logan’s Blue & Pink Wedding at Salt Lake Temple and Cactus & Tropicals

I got to know Melissa and Jason when we took their engagement photos and I thought they were incredible people. But on their wedding day, I got to know their friends and family, and they were equally as amazing to be around with. One moment that especially stuck with me (other than their Dancing with […]

Muir Beach SF Engagement Caili Chung Photography

If you’ve met Karl and Brittany and you don’t love them, you’re lying. Karl and Brittany are both individually so genuine and funny and kind, so them together is kind of perfect. They were the ones in front of the camera, but their energy was so contagious that my cheeks were sore from smiling. It […]

Karl & Brittany’s Engagement Session at Muir Woods & Muir Beach

When I first talked to Courtney, she told me that Alan can make things you might not think interesting, super interesting. For instance, she said, Alan loves trains and when he talks about them, he makes transportation intriguing. Alan works in transportation in San Francisco, and his passion for his work is apparent. He told […]
