Engagement Session with Janice & Jason's (Palace of Fine Arts & Baker Beach)

It was on a surprisingly warm and sunny San Francisco late afternoon in mid-June that Janice, Jason and I set out to take their engagement photographs at the San Francisco Palace of Fine Arts. Assisting me at the session was my wonderful supportive husband, Andrew. :)

I always know a session is going to go really well when I see that the couple took the time to prepare. So when I saw Janice and Jason walking towards me on the day of our session, rolling behind them a big suitcase, I was excited! Janice, who is naturally already so beautiful, had had her hair and make-up professionally done for our session. And Jason had picked out outfits that coordinated with Janice's cute summer dresses and put on styling white shoes to boot (no pun intended, of course). Their energy and commitment to the session was fantastic! And now, I will let the pictures take over the story.

With an hour left till sunset, the magical "golden hour", we headed to Baker Beach, just a short 7-minute drive from the Palace of Fine Arts, to continue our session.

Did I mention that Jason can fly? All right, maybe he cannot quite soar like an eagle, but he jumps really really high! We were pretty blown away! He even jumped over the Golden Gate Bridge, though not on the two photos featured below.

And last, but not least--I find this photo very romantic. Janice and Jason seem to be looking out towards the same bright future together, don't you find?

I am looking forward to shooting Jason and Janice's wedding at the Hakone Gardens in a few short months. Congratulations, guys, you were fantastic!

Until next time!
