liana & henry not only love each other but they also heart sf. henry is a true san franciscan, born and raised in the city, while liana lives not too far away and currently works for the city. for their engagement session, they wanted "trendy, yet classic" san francisco, so they chose the embarcadero, where we were able to roam around the ferry building just before all the stores opened. we headed to one of the piers along the waterfront, where we ended up seeing another photographer with another couple, which caused both couples to stare in disbelief at one another. (see "behind the scenes" below.)
afterwards, we headed on to ride an old-fashioned "f-train" towards the the hub of all shopping, union square. this was all too fitting, since this lovely couple met at macy's in college, while they were both employees. of course, we made sure to get a good view of the macy's sign in their photos.
congratulations on your engagement, liana & henry! can't wait 'til your sf wedding next june!

you never know what can happen in san francisco. while we were shooting at this rather popular pier, there was another couple who were also getting their engagement photos done. this is pretty usual for monica and me to see other couples and photographers as we tend to gravitate towards the same pretty places. however, the funny thing was, the couple that was getting their pictures taken had on the same exact outfit (almost to the "T") - it was hilarious. below is liana and henry's reaction. LOL!!! don't worry, you both looked way better in your fit than they did!
and while we were shooting outside of macy's, a man and his baby got in one of our photos. why? we don't know but it was pretty funny. must be a proud papa!
