Tan Wedding

I've lived in California my whole life, all 33 years of it. Sadly enough, I really haven't explored many of the treasures that can be found within the Golden State. Don't get me wrong, I've been to many parts of California, but there is so much more to see. Take the city of Carmel for instance. Carmel by the Sea is only about 5 minutes south of Monterey (a city I've been to many times), but it wasn't until this last year that I actually went there for the first time. If it were not for Leon and Cheryl having their wedding in Carmel, who knows when I would have gone there.

Below are some of the photos from Leon and Cheryl's wedding. A quick note, the Tan's were married at Mission Ranch, owned by actor Clint Eastwood. We were hoping he would stop by and have a dance with Cheryl, but I guess he wasn't in town.

Cheryl looked beautiful, as you will see, and Leon brought his Singapore style to complement. Thank you for the privilege to photography your wedding.

Tan Engagement

Melanie and I had a great time during Leon and Cheryl's engagement session. We started down by the Ferry Building in San Francisco, then made our way towards Crissy Fields so Leon could bust out his Superman shirt and show off his flying abilities. We wrapped up the session in style as our sunlight slipped into the ocean.

Tan Proposal

Being that I have not posted any images from Leon and Cheryl Tan's proposal, engagement session, or their wedding, the next three posts will be dedicated just to them.

My Journey began with them at Sea Cloud Park in Foster City. Leon asked me if I would take some undercover photos of him proposing to Cheryl. How could I pass up an opportunity to take some stealth photos, not to mention witness a beautiful moment between two wonderful people.

After we scouted where Leon was going to propose we headed back to Cheryl's condo and waited for her to arrive. When she was pulling up in the driveway, Leon showed me what I would describe as a secret passage that led to the back outside of the building. . . now it really felt like a top secret mission.

I made my way undetected to the park, situated myself, and waited for them to arrive so Leon could pop the question. Way to go Leon, you're the man!

Check out the footage.

This is where it all happened.

Leon makes his move.

Looking good.
