Jess and Nico had a larger wedding a couple months earlier in Panama, but were officially married in San Francisco. Jess’s grandparents weren’t able to make it down to Panama, but were able to see her off, along with some close friends, in a lovely celebration at City Hall. Grandpa was the officiant adding much sweetness, as well as gravity and wisdom from a man who’s been married for more than fifty years. It just one of those weddings surrounded by a feeling of warmth and smiles.

ATLASSIAN | SAN FRANCISCO TEAM BUILDING | ORACLE PARK EVENT
Atlassian had an epic team building event with a scavenger hunt throughout the Fisherman’s Wharf and North Beach neighborhoods of San Francisco. After all of the shenanigans were over with the hunt, we headed to the ballpark where the San Francisco Giants mascot, Louie the Seal, greeted us with spirit. DJ Trevor Williams rocked the party with tunes and his super capable turntablism. Everyone was served classic ballpark fare from hot dogs to peanuts and washed away the day with their beverage of choice chilling on the ballpark seats overlooking the beautiful Bay high above on the Virgin America Club Level.

Carrie and Aaron love experiencing the outdoors and have adventured all over the world together exploring epic back country. They chose Stinson Beach as the place to bring together some of their special people to celebrate in the midst of its natural world beauty and dynamic environment. Banks of fog rolled in periodically adding atmosphere throughout the day, but it was all sunshine during the ceremony. After the wedding and portraits above the beach along a ridge, we headed off to the Stinson Beach Community Center for the rest of the festivities. A beautiful day.

Read MoreLEROY JONES FILM SCREENING | SAN FRANCISCO PHOTOGRAPHER | AFRICAN AMERICAN ART & CULTURE COMPLEX EVENT
What a treat to photograph the festivities surrounding the film screening of ‘A Man and His Trumpet’, a documentary about one of the best trumpeter’s to ever come out of New Orleans, Leroy Jones. Filmmaker and musician Cameron Washington presented his film in the Western Addition. After the showing, over a dozen brass band musicians coalesced outside the venue and did a musical procession through the city streets to the party site in Hayes Valley. It was lovely to witness a piece of New Orleans culture on the streets of San Francisco. Numerous San Franciscans came out of their homes to see what the commotion was about and many passerby organically joined in on the parade; of course they all had smiles on.
Leroy Jones was the leader of the Fairview Baptist Church Marching Band, which eventually turned into the Hurricane Brass Band, which was extremely influential to later generation New Orleans brass bands, including the Rebirth Brass Band. Through the documentary I found out that he opened and played with Harry Connick, Jr. for many years, which for me was amazing, since as an extremely little shit Connick’s album ‘Blue Light, Red Light’ was the first jazz album I ever had and listened to constantly. Leroy was lead Trumpet on that album, and can still hear those powerful, yet smooth musical phrases he blessed us with in my mind. Thought it too dorky to mention when I had the opportunity to chat with him, but talked to him about how my first Second Line had me smiling and crying at the same time, and he expressed that he was happy that I got to experience that. On a later convo with him and Cameron, Leroy thought the party seemed like a Spike Lee film, but I added I thought it was more like a David Lynch film, but positive and upbeat. We had a good laugh. There were a lot of colorful and eclectic characters at this party ya’ll!
Leroy plays all over the world, and you can find him playing in New Orleans at many different venues, including regularly with the Preservation Hall Jazz Band at Preservation Hall. He is the coolest and sweetest. Check this national treasure out!!

Eric and Katie reached out to help commemorate an elopement during their visit to Sausalito. This couple was so easy going and fun to be around and never flinched whenever I gave them silly things to do as we adventured from the Golden Gate Market, down Bridgeway through downtown and ending in the Sausalito Yacht Harbor. Loved the range of romantic, silly and fun photos that we were able to capture together. A total blast was had. Enjoy!
