Dana & Bob | San Francisco Engagement Photographer

I shot Dana & Bob's engagement session up near Walnut Creek a few weekends ago. We couldn't have asked for nicer weather... it was warm, sunny and the mid-day sun had just passed over so lighting was great (but still really bright!). We started off at a park with a nice view of Mount Diablo. (Mount Diablo is claimed to have the second largest viewshed after Mount Kilimanjaro. On a clear day, it's pretty incredible...) Anyhow, after a short session out in the sunshine we headed over to the Lafayette Hotel near Walnut Creek to grab some shots. This hotel is very pretty -- modern with a nice classy feel. It was pretty quiet inside so we had a nice chance to get some shots out in the courtyard by the fountain. I really love seeing how excited two people are about their wedding day and all of the methodical planning that goes into it... we stopped by the church before the shooting began and it was a great opportunity to check out the space before the big day -- so I could get a feel for the lighting, setup, etc. I can't wait to shoot their wedding in June! Anyhow, check out some pics!
