Veronica & Paul J | San Francisco | Ferry Building Marketplace | Sur La Table | Park | Carnival | Engagement Session

I knew Paul J when he was just known as just J.  I have no idea where he picked up the Paul part, but it's very cool.  He's definitely one of the most down to earth and chill guys I know.  Veronica is one of those girls that is so warm and full of positive energy.   I've gotten to know Veronica from all the past weddings that she's been a part of as a bridesmaid and makeup artist.  If any of you brides are looking for a makeup person let me know and I'll pass on the info to her.  That was a shameless plug, but she's really awesome so she deserves it. 

Veronica has been a blog stalker from the very beginning.  I think she was the first one to comment on our blog too!  She's a huge fan of theimageisfound, of which we are also ginormous fans, so we definitely wanted to bring our A-game to their shoot.  This session was a lot of fun because for the first time we actually had some audience participation going on.  All I had to do was ask Veronica to bat her eyelashes at various strangers and ask them to do some crazy stunts for us.  

I am so looking forward to their wedding. 

This was taken right next to a huge group of people having lunch at the Ferry Building.

Veronica's family are great readers so she wanted to center some of her wedding decorations around books.  What a great idea.  We had to grab some shots in the book store.

Vern has such killer eyes.  I love the hat prop that we picked up.

Raving with oven mitts at Sur la Table.  Too cool.

These guys were such great sports.  I asked them to jump so many times, but it was worth it!

Subtle flare frames the shot.  I love it.
