Kirsten and Brad's San Francisco City Hall Wedding

On a beautiful April morning, Kirsten and Brad tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at San Francisco City Hall. Surrounded by two close friends and Kirsten's younger sister, the couple exchanged vows in a setting that was both grand and intimate.

Matching casual outfits with green tennis shoes set the tone for a relaxed and fun atmosphere, and the photos beautifully reflected the joy and love shared on this special day.

While they will be having a larger wedding in November, this early morning ceremony was a wonderful opportunity for Kirsten and Brad to celebrate their love in a more intimate setting. I wish them all the happiness in the world as they embark on this new chapter of their lives together.

Sam and Dave's St. Francis Intimate Wedding Reception

I had the pleasure of photographing Sam and Dave's small and intimate wedding reception in their hotel suite. The reception was filled with delicious catered food and a beautiful cake, but what made the event truly special is the incredible love between them.

I first met Sam through my photography work with DiPietro Todd, and he has always been a supportive presence in my life. Being able to witness and capture the love between him and Dave was truly beautiful, and I felt honored to be a part of their special day.

Despite the small size of the reception, the love and connection between Sam and Dave shone brightly, and it was a joy to capture every moment of their celebration. I wish them all the happiness in the world as they embark on this new chapter of their lives together.

Sarah-Ray and Liam Portland Wedding

In March, I had the opportunity to fly to Portland and photograph Sarah-Ray and Liam's small and intimate wedding at the beautiful Opal 28 venue. The wedding was particularly special for me because Sarah-Ray is the sister of my long-time friend and collaborator, musician Emma Ruth Rundle. It was Emma's gift to her sister, which made the whole experience even more meaningful.

As a photographer, I always strive to capture the unique essence of each wedding, and Sarah-Ray and Liam's was no exception. The intimacy of the event allowed me to really focus on the emotions and connections between the couple and their loved ones, resulting in some truly beautiful and heartfelt images.

Overall, it was an honor to be a part of Sarah-Ray and Liam's special day, and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to capture their love and connection in a way that they will cherish for years to come. Thank you to Emma for bringing me on board and allowing me to be a part of this beautiful celebration!

Katie and Michael City Hall Wedding

Katie and Michael are beautiful people who are also expecting a baby boy soon! I can feel their happiness in these photos, plus it was the morning in City Hall and barely anyone was there. It felt like such a gift to have the place practically to ourselves! This was my final wedding of 2022 and a great one to end the year with. Congratulations you two!

“Kristin was great to work with from Day 1! She was very responsive, gave great guidance for the event flow and made sure we felt comfortable during our City Hall Wedding. Kristin ensured we captured all of the moments possible to remember our special day and we highly recommend working with her!” -Katie and Michael

Christopher and Lexy Wed

This was a special one for me because the groom, Christopher is my cousin and I am so happy that him and Lexy found each other. It was a wonderful day photographing their families celebrating with them in the beautiful redwoods of The Russian River.

Viveca and Evan Wed

It was such a pleasure to be in The Sea Ranch capturing Viveca and Evan’s love. They also wrote us the most beautiful review, thank you Viveca and Evan!

“Kristin is just amazing. We were so lucky to have her photograph both our engagement shoot and our wedding, and we now have the most incredible selection of photos capturing the memories of our beautiful day. The photos really speak for themselves, but she is also so easy breezy to work with, full of creative ideas for shots and just a lovely person. It's clear that she loves what she does, as does her wonderful sister Kaitlin who assisted with the photography on our big day. Some comments from family and friends on our wedding photos:
"Wow Viveca these are so beautiful!!! I especially love all of the ones of you and Evan out on the bluff by the ocean. Kristin did such a good job and you guys look so great and happy."
"Beautiful, beautiful beautiful - Kristin really did a great job."
"Your photos are beautiful! Wow! What a great photographer."
"Those are absolutely spectacular."

Joe and Matt Wed

I was ecstatic to photograph Joe and Matt’s rescheduled (twice) wedding this last weekend in Oakland. I used to work with Joe and it was my honor to photograph his and Matt’s day and celebrate my first time photographing an LGBTQI+ wedding! Congratulations Joe and Matt, here is to many years of love and dancing!

Sarah and James Wed

Sarah and James were the first wedding I photographed in 2021. They were a rescheduled pandemic wedding and I’m so glad their event could happen.

It was a beautiful afternoon on a rooftop in downtown Oakland where, surrounded by their friends and family, they said, “I do”. Thank you for having me capture your day Sarah and James, I think you are both wonderful people!
