Sarah + Kiely approached us with such a unique idea for their San Francisco Marina engagement session. They wanted to loosely reenact their meeting and their beginning of their relationship. This is how Sarah described it to us:

“Two people knew each other in college, never dated but remained friends after college.  They are out doing their everyday routine (getting grocery, pick up the newspaper, walking down the street, getting coffee, crossing the street) and somehow always run into each other.  Then one day, Kiely decided that the 2 of us should get together for lunch/dinner.  Then we hit it off.  That was how we met and ran into each other back in college (in Santa Barbara).  Perhaps the tiny spark was always there but our timing didn’t fully blossom until 3 years after we graduated.  We met up for lunch (it turned into a 4-hour lunch) and have been inseparable ever since. ”

It totally sounds like a plot right out of a romantic comedy movie!  We decided to make the concept even more dramatic by changing the session to have Sarah + Kiely not know each other and always end up around each other.  There are a bunch of potential first meetings that turn out to be “just misses”.   We were more than happy to put together a concept for the engagement session and has so more fun walking around the Marina with Sarah + Kiely  photographing the different scenes. They even surprised us with a present at the end. Upon opening it, we saw it was one of our most favorite baked goodies- SCONES.  (How did they know? )^.^ They even thought of including some organic tea to go along with our treats… Everyone knows scones are that much yummier with a nice cup of tea. We were totally taken by surprised and touched by how the extent of their thoughtfulness. Thanks so much Sarah + Kiely! We are so excited for your upcoming wedding!!
