2008-10-18 Engagement shooting with Sheryll & Philippe | Embarcadero SF

I have one of the most chilling afternoon shooting Sheryll and Philippe's engagement portrait. They wanted the shooting to be done in the embarcadero area , capture that city atmosphere and at the same time want to have some pictures where Philippe proposed to this pretty woman Sheryll at the broadwalk pier 5.

They are 2 great person and so friendly , in every word they said, you could totally feel their care to each other. We talked about cars, friends, funny dating stories, the Audi A4 vs BMW 3-Series, the WRX sti, the Evo, the blow off valve......When I talked about a great connection between me and my clients, this is it. Their wedding is in 2009 Aug at Pleasanton Ruby Hill Golf Club, but they emailed me and asked my availability this year March , yes, it is 17 months in advance ! They are so loyal to me and I totally feel that respect, honor and trust. Here share some highlights .

2008-10-12 Wedding shooting @ Byington Winery & Vineyard

Shooting a wedding in a winery yesterday was such a treat to myself . Lucy & Brian 's wedding was at Byington Winery & Vineyard located up the hill in Los Gatos. After the ceremony, we spent an hour for our portrait at the vineyard . We also got to go to the cave for some beautiful shots with all the wine barrel in the background. Hey, I was at the winery , I totally took the advantage of it and did some free wine tasting and some fresh grape tasting :P . Totally enjoyed it and had fun with my assistant, as well as gorgeous Lucy and Brian.

2008-10-5 Spontaneous fun day with Stephen and Emma

It was such a great weather and I decided to go out with my friend Stephen and his lovely 3 yr old princess Emma to the San Jose Children Discovery Museum. It was not a planned shooting day, I just grabbed my camera and a 50mm lens for some casual shot with them and have some fun hanging out. Here share some fun photos of us.

2008-10-1 After the day shoot for Sue & Andrew

Just released the online wedding album to Sue and Andrew and they loved it. If you have followed my blog, you already knew that how gorgeous their wedding looked . The San Francisco City Hall ceremony and reception was elegant and the downtown SF shooting was also a lot of fun. Here I post a screen shot of their final wedding album . Also some portrait that we took 2 days after the wedding at the same location SF city hall.

Just a reminder if you want to dome some serious shooting there, better apply for the permit before you go.
