Some sweet highlights from Lisa and Steven's wedding shot by our associates.

Engagement Shoot | California College of the Arts SF | Caryn + Martin

Photography by Jerry

How appropriate that we visit both sides of the California College of the Arts campuses.  One in Oakland the week before and now the one in San Francisco.  I didn't plan this, it just ended up this way.  

Engagement Shoot | Oakland | California College of the Arts | Lindsay + Russell

Oakland Engagement Shoot Wedding Photography

Photography by Jerry

I loved Lindsay and Russell's idea of shooting at the California College of the Arts right in Oakland.  It's four blocks from my studio, but I've never gone inside.  I was actually thinking of taking some classes here, but you have to enroll into a full program.  Just being there made me feel more artsy.  I almost got Lindsay and Russell to shed their clothes to model for me.  Well, not almost.  We just laughed about it.  Maybe my next couple.

Outtakes are inevitable when you're looking for a keeper.

My brain almost blew up after seeing this shot in camera.  No photoshopping here.  

Engagement Shoot | Alameda | Theater | Alexandra + Anthony

Alexandra and Anthony are theater actors.  So of course we had to get them on stage.  I love stage lighting for engagement shoots.  Sometimes I wish all weddings had stage lighting.  Imagine how awesome wedding photos would be if you had stage lighting.

Engagement | Botanical Garden | San Francisco | Leona + James

Photography by Jerry

James loves trees.  I don't like working with plain trees.  I think we found some interesting trees.  What do you think?

Engagement | We Oakland | Urban | Jamie + Adam

Photography by Jerry and Ingrid

This is my sister.  She's getting married to a boy named Adam.  He's a great guy.  He's also a creative art director for Acura.  Even though he could have directed the knees and toes out of the shoot he let us do our thing.  I think we got some keepers.  

After showing our mom the first three pictures in a set of like four hundred shots, she immediately says that this the best engagement shoot ever in the history of time.  My dad wasn't so eager, it took him about twelve shots into the slideshow to say the same.  Gotta love unbiased opinion!  

The first and last shot of the day are complete contrasts.  It wasn't planned that way, it just happened.  

Although he works for Acura directing commercials by day, he also dreams of one day selling used Mercedes.  He promises 2 for 1 deals.  

One of my faves.  I like animals in pictures.  

Cool shoes Jamie.  

Adam also wants to sell you a house.  2 for 1 is also included with this one.  

They loved this house so much they decided to keep it all for themselves.  How selfish.  

My other fave.  

My mom's fave of course.
