Intimate Rainy Point Bonita Lighthouse Wedding

An Intimate Rainy Point Bonita Lighthouse Wedding in the Marin Headlands

This was my first time shooting a Point Bonita Lighthouse wedding. It is perched on the edge of the coast overlooking the Pacific. The Lighthouse is in the Marin Headlands and has a great view of San Francisco. This spot is so stunning.

EJ and Tim were wonderfully sweet.  There were 13 people at this wedding.  I like small gatherings. They got ready for a day at a rental house in San Francisco. Once everyone was dressed and ready, we got on a motorized trolley and headed to Golden Gate Park, and then over the Golden Gate Bridge to the Point Bonita Lighthouse.  

It was raining for about half the day, but the rain seemed to magically stop for us as soon as we got to the lighthouse. The wind was blowing, waves were crashing on the rocks below us, and EJ and Tim walked hand in hand down to the point.  Tim’s mother officiated the marriage ceremony.  Her joy was infectious.  I felt super stoked to be able to capture this special moment in EJ and Tim’s lives.

After the ceremony, I took a few portraits of EJ and Time, and then we drove back over the Golden Gate Bridge to Flour + Water restaurant in San Francisco for an amazing multi-hour meal. They have a private dining area that accommodated the guests perfectly.
