Engagement Photography in San Francisco

San Francisco Engagement Photography with Brianne, Michael & Their Golden Retriever

Some engagement sessions are effortless, and this was one of them. From the start, Brianne & Michael were all about having fun, and their golden retriever made sure we kept things lighthearted. My goal with every session is to capture real, candid moments while making sure couples feel completely at ease—and these two made it easy.

We started at Land’s End, where the rugged trails and ocean views set the perfect tone. Their pup stole the spotlight a few times, but that only added to the fun. At Crissy Field, the Golden Gate Bridge gave us that classic San Francisco backdrop, with the wind adding just the right amount of drama.

Next, we headed to Lover’s Lane, a quiet, tree-lined path that brought a more intimate feel to the session. Brianne & Michael took their time, soaking in the moment, and it showed in every frame. We wrapped things up at Torpedo Wharf, with the bay and city lights glowing behind them—a perfect way to end the session.

Engagement sessions aren’t just about the locations (though San Francisco delivers every time). They’re about capturing the connection between two people in a way that feels natural and true to them. With Brianne, Michael, and their pup, it was all about laughter, movement, and simply enjoying the experience.

Can’t wait for their wedding day!
