Not your typical City Hall staircase shot—
the couple walking towards the Mayor’s Balcony,
with the grand staircase quietly framing the background
and that glowing chandelier holding the center like it was meant to.

This angle is rare.
The balcony has to be clear. The staircase empty.
The light? Gotta be just right.
It takes a little patience—and a lot of luck.
But when it clicks, you get something timeless.

Golden hour at Stow Lake, a rusty boat, a red pillow, and two humans in love.
Some couples just go all in—and I’m here for it.
Calm water, soft light, a little laughter echoing between the trees…
These are the sessions I live for.

If you're up for a fun and relaxed shoot like this—on a boat, at the beach, or somewhere with meaning—hit me up. Let’s make some magic.

I get asked a lot: what happens in case of bad weather? Here is an answer: Weather does not have the power to influence our emotions and excitement. Couples that are truly in love will feel no rain. On a side note, this beach reminds me of Iceland. Volcanic sand is truly amazing. We are so lucky to have such an incredible coastline.

One of my favorites from Ruyan and Afshin’s wedding! As much as I want to claim a credit for this photo, I can’t. I didn’t take it. Kate did. Swipe to see my version. It’s awesome to have someone who can capture a moment like this by your side. Thank you Kate and congratulations to this gorgeous couple!

Some locations are simply magical! This is one of favorite shots from a session I had in Oregon last month with and . I am just starting to work on multiple events from March-April so thank you for your patience. So many beautiful weddings and engagements to review, sort and edit. Can’t wait to get to it!

After absolutely insane week with 3 large and two small weddings, an engagement session in Oregon, I am off to Santorini. It’s going to be amazing.

Many of you know that I am not very social person when it comes to Instagram, and instead I prefer a personal connection. It is true when it comes to my family, friends or clients. But for those who are curious, please follow my stories, I will try to document this journey.

Last year was one of the busiest in my career with over 300 couples and this year seems to be the same. Hopefully next year it will calm down a bit.

At this point of my career, I am I also supposed to calm down, but something still drives me to capture amazing moments. I think it is related to my family, friends and people who surround me. They motivate me so much. Everyone has important part in my journey and I am trying to return a favor every time I have a chance.

Also, I am grateful to my daughter for investing so much of her time to help me with weddings.

And finally, my wonderful wife who manages to help me with wedding clients while spending countless hours working with helping the Ukrainian refugees find the safe place during the war.

World can be a scary and yet a wonderful place. I love you all.

A lot of people ask me when is a best time to photograph in San Francisco. Well this photo was taken around noon few days ago. For those who aim for sunset photos in San Francisco, keep in mind that there is a chance of fog and wind instead of a beautiful sunset.
