It is neat how a city often has more of a neighborhood feel than a small town. And North Beach epitomizes that completely.
A magical place filled with great bars, fantastic food, fun people North Beach is the neighborhood where Lupe and Chau started dating, so what better place to do their engagement portraits than along the storied streets of one San Francisco’s elder ‘hoods?
Okay, so Chau had a bachelor pad there, too — and we do mean pad — and, yes the apartment is still vacant after he moved out 🙂
They are awesome people and were sports for going to the bars and starting off with a quick shot (a true North Beach tradition, we think!)
A kindly patron there offered true advice on relationships, even posing some tough questions to our lovely couple, both of whom handled the queries with great aplomb.
We also visited their old haunts: Golden Boy and Mama’s before heading off to Chrissy Field and the Golden Gate Bridge.
But for a little wind, the weather cooperated nicely, especially for a San Francisco “summer” day.
We are looking very forward to their wedding in October!
We had so much fun that day! Thanks again for taking the pics – we love them! Looking forward to the wedding!
Great photos…..really captured you guys well.

Love the one of you guys with the GG Bridge behind!!!
Fantastic pics, Gregory! The one of me jumping in front of the garage is one of my favorites (because it shows my explosive jumping ability, j/k) It was a great working with you and Dave.
