I was honored to shoot an engagement session for two very good friends, Lena and Henry. We picked a warm and clear July afternoon to visit their most sentimental places in San Francisco. Each location represents a first in their relationship.
Their first home sits atop a hill on California Street.
When they first started dating, they would come to the Ferry Building every weekend. Lena says this is where they fell in love.

They had their first date at Tartine Bakery on Guerrero. Quiche, gougères, and lattes.
We climbed up Twin Peaks, where they had their first kiss. A blustery evening led to some hilarious moments and out-of-control hair.
