San Francisco Baker Beach Engagement | Wallis and Josh Engaged

Monday


Wallis and Josh started dating in the 8th grade. Through seven years of being together, they have gone through life's battles, triumphs, valleys, and mountains. I'm lucky to say that I've known Wallis for a few years, but just recently was able to witness her and Josh's ebbs and flows as a couple. That totally sounds silly, but I truly believe that couples know how to move together, fit together and really can become in sync; they flow. And no, not only while walking down the street together or cuddling on a couch watching their favorite show, but during a photo session as well. And when it happens, its magical! There is a photo I captured of Wallis and Josh...and when I came across it editing, I stopped. THIS is what I want to capture. I asked them to dance in the streets of San Francisco; they laughed, they stumbled, they turned multiple shades of red; and then, Wallis reached out and grabbed a hold of Josh and they came together, totally in sync. My heart pitter-pattered, because let's face it, I'm a hopeless romantic!

Not only did we spend some incredible time in the streets of the city dancing, but we also went over to Baker Beach for some golden hour glory! Man oh man! The light showed up for these two! These are easily some of my favorite images to date...it was completely magical! We laughed so much about #shouldersandchin that it might actually become their wedding day hashtag...maybe! ;)

I am beyond humbled that Wallis & Josh asked me to take their destination engagement photos while they vacationed here in San Francisco! We frolicked all over the city and had so much fun going to new spots and exploring together! I cannot wait to see how stunning their wedding will be this year back in Tennessee!

Thursday



This family, this city, this session. Everything absolutely lined up for my FIRST San Francisco shoot! I couldn't have asked for better clients to kick start my business. It's kind of crazy how Katie and I "met". I posted K&R's sneak peak of their Knoxville wedding, and Katie happened to see it in a round-a-bout way. She then happened to see that I was located here in SF and boom I got a message! Not only is she crazy sweet, but she is also "from" Knoxville. What?! It's like it was meant to be! Her husband is completing his residency here in the city and they will be heading back to Knoxville later in June. I'm crazy sad to see them go as I've developed quite the little crush on this family!

Katie said she wanted to document her family's short time here in the city with some of their favorite local spots! A typical Saturday for them. I loved the idea! So off we went to Alta Plaza Park then for a couple of sweet treats at Sift. I LOVE some of the shots we got there!! To see Ella and Collin light up at all the cupcakes was SO stinking adorable! We rounded out the lifestyle session with a quintessential SF moment. Catching the Muni. Lets say, this was perfect. Not only was it a crowded bus, but it 100% had the feel of San Francisco. People completely did their thing while I snapped shots all around them. Then, as we were getting off of the bus, it just so happened to break down. A sweet southern accent and a question and boom, we were back on the bus for a few minutes taking extra pics. LOVE this city!!! Enjoy!




































 These three next photos are so stinking cute!!! LOVE the last one...probably my favorite picture of the session!
