Katherine and Corey’s Wedding
Last year, Katherine and Corey first hired me to shoot some engagement photos. Their wedding at Valley Presbyterian was going to be so intimate, they weren’t planning to have a photographer, so I was definitely honored when they asked me to be there. Katherine’s vintage-chic and refined style was featured on glamour.com. You can click [...]
Holly & Juan – Ahwahnee Hotel, Yosemite National Park
I’m excited to share images from Holly and Juan’s winter wedding at Ahwahnee Hotel in Yosemite National Park. I could not ask for a more breathtaking backdrop than Yosemite in the wintertime! They had expressed to me how lucky they felt to have found each other and that sentiment stuck with me throughout the day [...]
Kim and Daniel’s Wedding
Kim and Daniel had an awesome wedding, and we mean awesome in both definitions: “inspiring awe” and “excellent or outstanding”. This was a fourteen hour day for Jack and his assistant, but when there’s a dragon dance at the reception, does that really matter? Take a look at some of the beautiful images that were a labor of [...]
Rowena & Scott – Landmarks Tiburon Art and Garden Center Wedding
It was a bit drizzly the afternoon of their wedding, but spirits were high. Rowena was radiant! It was a lovely day with warm people and delicious food.
Jennifer & Fred – Palm Event Center Wedding
I really enjoyed spending time with these two during their summer engagement session, so was looking forward to their big day in October. Rain was expected but the weatherman was thankfully wrong again. For anyone keeping track this year, that’s Andria-3, weatherman-1. After sharing the slideshow with them, I received an email from Jenn that [...]
Serendipity and Preparedness in wedding photography
Well, actually, this applies to all sorts of photography but more so any type of photography that has less controlled situations. With weddings in particular, one of the challenges is that things never go exactly as planned. Even when they do, specific moments can happen in split seconds and unexpected moments pop up all the time. Capturing [...]
Francine & Greg – Queen Wilhelmina Tulip Garden Wedding
The Mexican Party Bus was the ultimate ride to their ceremony in Golden Gate Park. All the flowers at Queen Wilhelmina Tulip Garden were in full bloom, and despite a bit of morning rain, the clouds held steady for their outdoor ceremony. We took the bus (blasting M.I.A.!) back to the Mission District where the [...]
Action:Reaction – wedding photography from both sides of the aisle
or in this case, alley… I feel like the only times I end up in a photo that my assistant shoots during a wedding happens to be when I’m on the ground and this was one that Gavin Farrington, who was assisting me at Prudence and David’s wedding, caught. The girls were dancing in the [...]
Hanna & Dong’s wedding – Palo Alto Garden Court Hotel
These two had a large ceremony in Korea a couple weeks prior, so they were able to relax a bit more for their American wedding and we got to spend some quality time taking portraits. Hanna looked so stunning in her dress, though all the fabric probably weighed more than she did.
Julia & Kevin’s Wedding at Mill Valley Outdoor Art Club
Julia and Kevin were married at the charming Mill Valley Outdoor Art Club, a lovely Bernard Maybeck structure surrounded by redwood trees. It’s like a secret garden/oasis in downtown Mill Valley! These two share a love of their families, football, and good food. Their wedding day coincided with both of Julia’s nieces birthdays (who are [...]
Kevin & Emily’s Wedding
Meet Kevin and Emily! They had a lovely wedding at the charming and historic Webb Barn in Wethersfield, Connecticut. The vibe was intimate and warm – it was all about the essentials. Loved ones, a sweet ceremony, amazing food and some hard dancing in a barn. I have never been to Connecticut before – so [...]
Nicole and Shaheen
If you’ve never been to the San Francisco City Club, you’ve been missing out on a treasure: a rich history dating back from 1930, a gorgeous Art Deco interior felt in every corner, a giant Diego Rivera mural, and amazing views of downtown San Francisco from ten stories up. Where better to stage the dreamy [...]
Ayaka & Ryo – Japanese wedding details
Ayaka and Ryo are from Japan. They planned everything for their Bay Area wedding while overseas, so the first time I met them in person was just an hour before they said “I do!” This ended up working out just fine because I developed an instant crush on them and luckily for me, they let [...]
Erin & Matthew
Erin and Matt got married in late April, and throughout the day I was praying that my wife wouldn’t go into labor! Luckily, the baby came a month later and the day went without a hitch. The entire wedding was at the Flood Mansion and the set up was extraordinary, as I recognized many of [...]
Wedding trends we like: pockets in dresses
I can’t live without pockets. I hate having limited storage options and one of the coolest things I’ve been seeing at weddings lately is pockets in dresses. My most recent wedding had the coolest pockets – integrated right into the stylish wedding gown.
Adria & Wayne – St. Francis Yacht Club
Adria and Wayne got hitched at the St. Francis Yacht Club in San Francisco. Blue skies and blue waters provided the scenic backdrop. You really can’t get a better up-close view of the Bay. You’re practically at sea level and there’s the Golden Gate Bridge to your left, Bay Bridge to your right, and Angel [...]
Christina and Ethen
Christina and Ethen had a beautiful Buddhist ceremony at one of the most gorgeous resorts north of San Francisco, Cavallo Point. The surrounding views of the Golden Gate Bridge and our lovely city of San Francisco makes it a perfect place to tie the knot. Although they are rare, I love Buddhist ceremonies as it [...]
Stephanie and Lloyd
Two lovely people who had a lovely evening tea ceremony and reception at the very chic Xanh in Mountain View. The most adorable kids were in attendance –they had a fun dance party (breakdancers in training) and gobbled up all the wedding cake.

Founders Jean Marks & Jubilee Lau were amazing hosts, and I still can’t imagine the time and energy they put into making this happen. Their panel of speakers included Grace Ormonde, San Francisco’s own [...]
Orange Photography Super Collages!
Andria was playing around with Picasa’s Photo Collage Maker today and created these super colleges. A great idea for posting images from your personal projects. We also think this mosaic would be a fun way to showcase photobooth images from events or parties. Check out our photobooth collage from Molly & Brian’s Makin Whoopie Fundraiser [...]
Catherine and Kieran
Catherine and Kieran celebrated their wedding day all around San Francisco. The bridesmaids looked stunning in pink with their pink and white bouquet of flowers! Nikki was there to capture the special moments.
