Nick chose a Baker Beach proposal to Lexie while they were visiting from Bakersfield on vacation. If you want the iconic Bridge in the background, get inspired with this Baker Beach proposal.
I love Baker Beach proposals because they are the best place to show the Golden Gate Bridge. As a San Francisco native, I love showing off the City at this location.
Nathan wanted to surprise Jihye with a Palace of Fine Arts proposal since it was the perfect stop along the way home after hanging out with friends in Marin. Check out this Palace of Fine Arts proposal.
When someone wants a more architectural location, I always suggest a Palace of Fine Arts proposal, since its the best in the City! The Dome is one of the more recognized SF icons.
Rishi chose a Lovers Lane proposal to Natasha, hoping to have an empty scenic location for his big moment. To see how gorgeous this location is check out this Lovers Lane proposal.
Lovers Lane proposals are always great to photograph since a majority of people don’t even know it exists! It is perfect for those who want a gorgeous natural backdrop.

Ian Chin was a magician in his former life, I swear. Heard the saying, “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade?” Well let me tell ya, Mr. Ian Chin is Minute Maid himself! We received the photos and I was dumbfounded. His creativity and professionalism made that special day in our lives much more memorable.

Ian did a great job photographing my proposal. He was great with planning the logistics of how to find us without my now-fiancee realizing. The photos he took in the moment and staged afterwards came out great. And he got all the photos to us quickly. His price was also extremely reasonable. Would fully recommend.
