Matthias Photography » San Francisco Wedding Photography by Matthias Giezendanner

After having spent a month in Peru its wonderful to be back home, and I feel all the more grateful for my life and work here in San Francisco. Of course San Francisco may not get snow, but it sure does get a lot of fog. The day we shot was freezing (ok, not literally, just really, really cold and gray). In my mind it is a testament to how wonderful a couple Amy and Norbert are to be able to laugh their way through the afternoon, even as their noses turned red, and their hands began to lose feeling in their fingers. In any weather the Marin headlands are one of the most beautiful places in Northern California, and we had a blast wandering the rocks, bunkers, and vegetation of Rodeo beach. Thanks for being such great sports guys. I think it was worth it, and hope you do too. Enjoy!

I had a blast flying out to Chicago and shooting a stylized gold vintage wedding fashion shoot for Events by Willow a little while back. The whole shoot will be featured on Style Me Pretty in the next few weeks. But here’s a little preview…

Stay tuned for the Style Me Pretty Feature, and have a wonderful Christmas!

When Gina and I were conversing about her engagement session it became very clear that she loves her home city of Stockton and loves Christmas and Christmas lights. So we pretty much planned their shoot around those two elements. From the old buildings to the beautiful leaves of the fall, Stockton was really a perfect place to shoot. And when we got to her backyard which she had filled with Christmas lights we had our own little winter wonderland. Of course the most fun for me was to spend some time with a super-fun couple and get to know them together. Next April can’t come soon enough!  In the meantime, welcome to Christmas and the holidays!
