I loved Park Winters the moment I first saw it and couldn’t imagine a better place for Alison and Justin’s Wedding. The Locally Grown Weddings team transformed the property into a magical and romantic place to gather with friends and family.

Getting married in October has its advantages, such as beautiful light, gorgeous weather and giant pumpkins!








Alison has amazing eyes: I have never seen the like.





























Do you remember Alison and Justin’s engagement photos? They chose this one image for their gift table.

Madeline designed this beautiful map of the premises.













Every time I have been to Park Winters, I have seen wild turkeys!



Pei-Yee worked closely with Alison to choose an alternative to the traditional wedding cake. A dessert table is always a great option.











Weddings are a team sport. Here are the wonderful people who made this event a success:

Second Photographer: Genevieve Shiffrar

It’s always such an honor when somebody you work with asks you to take photos of their family. It’s also lots of fun to get to know the important people who love and care for your friend.
Pei-Yee and I work together with the rest of the Locally Grown Weddings team and this was such a wonderful opportunity to spend a few hours together in Golden Gate Park with her whole family.
Here are some of my favorite photos from the shoot. Enjoy!


I love these candid moments! You can’t really expect young children to pose for the camera and often what they do spontaneously is so much cuter.


Pei-Yee’s parents have been together for 40 years…I just love these kind of stories, it’s the romantic in me :)

Here’s a great idea of what to wear: the family chose a combination of blues and purples. These colors worked beautifully with the green and February flowers of Golden Gate Park.


And here’s another “behind the scene” moment…
