Isabella and Nolan were all smiles when their mom Thi brought them over 🙂
This is probably our favorite and most endearing shot from the session. Nolan is definite a role model big brother at the age of seven!
Nolan looks entranced with the landscape of Byxbee park in the background 😛
When Tina and Marcelo showed up dressed up in their delightful spring time outfits, we could not help but smile. They looked so cute together!
Their love story is one for the books… Let’s just say there was Taboo, alleys with dumpsters, La Fondue, and a fire station involved 😛 To pay tribute to their love story, we visited a few places near and dear to them both 🙂
La Fondue in Saratoga… where Marcelo first swooned and wooed Tina 🙂
A game of Taboo in the park! The board game that sealed the deal for both of them 😉
Their big day is only a few months away!
Each wedded year together for Dee and Budeck is a special one and for their fifth year anniversary they chose to do photos to celebrate their five years of love. We had a great time with Dee and Budeck along the beautiful coastline of Half Moon Bay for their little photo (make-out) session 😛
The air was filled with extra joy, not only for their anniversary, but because tomorrow will be an exciting day, as Budeck’s little sister says her “I Do’s” 🙂
The last time we shot with Sydney, she was big-sister-to-be. Now, she is officially big sister with the arrival of her baby brother Winston!
Winston is a giggler. It wasn’t hard at all to get some baby laughs and smiles out of him 🙂
“I’m ready for my nap. Is this photo session over now?” says Winston. 😛
Terence has got to be one of the most calm baby we’ve worked with. His mother initially contacted us to shoot photos to commemorate his 100 days after birth. On this special day in Chinese tradition, relatives and friends will send gifts such as clothes, shoes and hats for the baby. This is an important day for the baby because the celebrations represents the wish that the baby will live 100 years.
Whoops… looks like Terence may have done some baby damage. His grandfather’s reaction was just too funny 🙂
Here’s to Terence and his 100 days after birth and 100 years (and more) of prosperity and happiness to come 😉
We’re excited to share our menagerie editorial shoot, inspired by old world antiques, aged wood and metals, and taxidermy. The palettes of antique neutral tones with dashes of blush pink, amarillo and blue-greens go perfectly well with the vintage and lacy dresses.

We had a wonderful time venturing around San Francisco for Mona and John’s engagement session… not to mention our pit stops at Chantal Guillion to satiate Mona’s (and our) love for macaroons 🙂
We’re looking forward to their big day later this year!
It was so nice to walk into Teresa’s home and find that she had perfectly arranged every little detail in her home to make their portrait session a little extra special! Her and her hubbie wanted photos together before they took the next step into parenthood, which I thought was very endearing 🙂 Enjoy the photos!
We had the pleasure of joining Andi and Mike at their nuptials at San Mateo City Hall. Funny how you can get a marriage license via a computer station nowadays – technology eh? But regardless, Andi and Mike will be celebrating their special day in Half Moon Bay in just a few weeks from now, which we’re super excited about!
Congratulations to the wonderfully delightful Andi and Mike ❤
Highlight film by Lightbulb Videography to come – super excited to see what magic they will muster up this time!

Never in their wildest dreams did they Ali and Quinn think a child’s game would change their lives forever, but it did. Fate had a way of ensuring that they were both in the right place at the right time in their lives, even through they had similar life journeys. “And of all the places in the world and various points in time, it wasn’t high school, it wasn’t college, it wasn’t work, or a party, or a grocery store, or through a friend – but rather, Fate chose an adult kickball league?”
Regardless of how funny Fate is sometimes, these two are finally together and we’re so happy for their love of no bounds!
Congratulations to Ali and Quinn!

Jaxon was an absolutely delightful little toddler. He isn’t exactly camera shy either, as seen from the photo above (He was trying to kiss the camera). Some fun facts about Jaxon: He likes reaching for the stars and stuffing his face with dehydrated bananas and strawberries. Here are some of our favorite candid shots of Jaxon, a change from the more ordinary portraits 😛
Did we mention he also had a strange infatuation for his cute little belly button? Super cute!
