Rob & Kim - Brazil Room, Tilden Park, and San Francisco

A few weeks ago I started this photographic adventure with Rob and Kim. They were married at the Brazil Room, a small building nestled away in the middle of Tilden Park near Berkeley. Living in the Berkeley Hills, this is one location that I pass by nearly every week, so it was great fun to be able to roll over to this beautiful place to share the momentous evening with Rob, Kim and their friends and family. We pulled out my umbrellas between torrents of rain, and some gusting wind to take advantage of everybodies great spirits during an exciting February day.






Rob and Kim passed on the traditional wedding cake and instead opted for a tower of decadent cupcakes. They were a real hit!



And had some fun dancing too...



With an evening ceremony, Rob and Kim decided to set their own unique schedule, and take pictures together on a separate day after the wedding. Common in the Southern US, "Bridal shoots" are my new favorite thing! We were able to wait until we had perfect San Francisco weather, ample time, and the ability to bring along the couple's beloved third family member Ernest. We went to Chrissy Field in San Francisco where Rob and Kim often took Ernest for walks, before heading to the Presidio and then to Baker Beach. We took lots of artistic shots before heading into uncharted photographic territory for me, and all took the plunge into the chilly San Francisco Bay. My camera stayed dry, and here are some of my favorite shots.













Many thanks to the talented Cate Corbitt for her help during the wedding. For a full view of all the pictures from the day, be sure to check out the full slideshow HERE.
