What is it that is so magical about San Francisco? I love visiting this city, dining, exploring, relaxing, and of course shooting there. This session was such a fun mix of their beautiful light-filled loft {in a historic building that used to be a brewery!} and the prettiness that is Crissy Field.

The weather was perfect (how do I get so lucky almost every time I’m up there??) and I loved every minute of this session!

I always get so so excited when couples decide to do their engagement sessions at home, a place that by default is filled with special memories, cozy corners, and a relaxing atmosphere. And it’s just an added bonus when their home happens to be as beautiful and bright as this one. Myesha & Craig’s house is perched up in those twisty hills of Silverlake, with ridiculous views of the city, a lush backyard, and the most lovely hand-picked pieces (be still my mid-century-modern-loving heart!) Walking in, holding my camera, I had a brief one of those moments – the ones where there is so much pretty everywhere {including the gorgeous couple!} and you have no idea where to start first. But we started with one colorful corner, and then moved along to another one, and in the end I drove home with a big smile and a memory card full of these photos. In addition to being fantastically stylish, Myesha and Craig are so fun and down-to-earth – can’t wait for their wedding in just a couple months!

There are a lot of beautiful things I saw during the afternoon I spent with Tori & Kate in and around their home. A cozy living room with bright cheery posters. A sun-drenched kitchen. Colorful berries atop homemade vegan pancakes. Matching aprons. A wall of hearts. Sweet terriers and cuddly cats.

But the most beautiful thing? By far?

Was love.

Because this is love you see in these photos. That giddy giggly kind of love. That connected souls kind of love. That feels-like-home, best-friend, you-really-really-get-me kind of love.

I’m counting all my lucky stars that Tori’s sister found me online through Green Wedding Shoes and gifted this session to Tori & Kate. Because of her I was able to meet two amazing ladies and capture a glimmer of their lives together :) These kinds of homey sessions are still always my favorites and this one is no exception… it makes my heart so so happy.
