Some couples make you feel like you have known them for years within the first ten minutes. Puja and Kishan were exactly that. Warm, fun, full of energy, completely at ease. They found me online and reached out, and from the first message it was clear this session was going to be something good.

We shot at Baker Beach as the light turned, that late afternoon golden hour when San Francisco stops looking like a city and starts looking like a painting. They gave me everything I needed without being asked. They just were themselves, and it translated into every frame.

A few weeks after I delivered the photos, they sent me a video message. They said it was beyond what they had expected. I think what they actually meant was that the photos looked like them, and that is the only thing I am ever trying to do.
