San Francisco Wedding, Portrait Photographer Kelly Chau
I’ve been surrounded by babies lately! Coincidence? Or is someone trying to tell me something?
Here’s a teaser from Sunday’s mini-session that involved five-month old baby Ronin, a cutie-patootie who was an angel for the camera. Funny moment of the day: Ronin got hungry midway through his shoot, and as I was holding him, he turned toward me and made a beeline towards my chest. I believe he was looking for his dinner. Hehe.
More to come soon!
Yay, more babies!! No pressure, no pressure… and haha about him searching for food. It’s extra funny when they look for it from men and the horror on said men’s faces when they realize what’s happening.
this is one of my favorite shots!
On Saturday, I had the honor of attending cute pie Kaelyn’s baby party. Kaelyn is incredibly lucky to have such loving and talented parents. Vir did such an amazing job with the candy buffet/dessert spread! I wish I had seen this inspiration while planning my own wedding. Amy Atlas would be so proud.
I LOVE the pennant banner that Vir made for Kaelyn’s name.
Check out the cute little bees buzzing around a gorgeous flower-topped cake! The details truly make this spread.
Yellow whirly pops. Even the name is adorable.
And the best part? Vir secretly told me all of the goods were store bought and many of the platters were borrowed. Wow! Presentation really makes a HUGE impact.
Below are a few more pictures from the party… I wish I took more photos but I was having so much fun talking to all the guests. I came by myself, a little self-conscious about not knowing anyone, but Jess & Vir’s family and friends were so sweet, I had nothing to worry about.
Vir and Jess displayed some of the photos from Kaelyn’s baby session. I especially love how the gatorfoam print turned out. These are a great, inexpensive alternative to canvas wraps. I really like the clean black border around the foam core.
Last but not least, the sunny party invitation designed by Vir. I’m not exaggerating when I say that she is the best graphic designer that I know. I wish she would start a stationery line because I’d be her best customer.
If I ever host a party and I coincidentally happen to do the EXACT SAME dessert buffet spread, you can just pretend you never saw it on my blog.

Wow!!! this is an AWESOME dessert buffet =) and love the invitations!!
Everything is spectacular!
HOLY WOW!!! Vir is absolutely amazing, that buffet would seriously impress Amy Atlas!! I <3 Vir, she is so talented (she designed my logo and initial company branding!)
OMG!!! This is absolutely incredible. Every detail is perfect. The pictures are beautiful too!
To be fair, I think kel’s amazing photos make it look better than it was! So glad you were able to come kel and I’m so tickled to see this post!
Wow! These are beautiful and what an adorable little bundle of joy! Great work!!!
The details are so pretty. Love the theme and the pictures!!
Beautiful! All the details are delightful, the images are wonderful and the invitations are awesome!
I love these images so cute kelly! I love the color and the clarity when I have a baby I want to dot he yellow thing so much life and energy! Thanks for sharing.
Darling baby Kaelyn was born two months ago into the loving home of Virginia and Jess. They are two of the most genuinely sweet people I’ve had the pleasure to know. It’s no surprise baby Kaelyn has an equally sweet temperment.
Kaelyn has the cutest baby nursery ever, and you’d never guess it was decorated on a budget. Vir and Jess painted it the color of warm sunshine, accented with touches of fresh sea spray.
Vir ordered a precious tutu from Etsy especially for the photo session. How unbearably cute does Kaelyn look wearing it? Be still, my aching ovaries.
I loved watching Vir’s gentle nature with Kaelyn. She changed her several times throughout the session, each time comforting baby Kaelyn with her sweet voice.
Kaelyn is going to be the best dressed baby in history. I especially loved her yellow and white polka-dotted swimsuit. Why are baby clothes so much cuter than adult clothes?
Darling little Kaelyn isn’t much bigger than her beloved plushy Bear-Bear.
Jess and Vir obviously love baby Kaelyn with everything they have. It was such a privilege to document their family for an afternoon. And if I didn’t tell you that they made me want a baby of my own, I’d be lying.
Curled little baby fists: quite possibly the cutest things on the planet.
Last but not least, one picture of Jess & Vir’s firstborn: Wicket the Ewok Maltese-Yorkie.
To Vir & Jess: Thanks for letting us be a part of your family for an afternoon! We love baby Kaelyn and we can’t wait to watch her grow up.

These are amazing! Vir, Jess, and Kaelyn (and I can’t forget Wicket) make for an adorable family and you’ve captured them so sweetly and beautifully.
I looooove love love them (and baby Kaelyn.. haha)! You are so talented. Thank you so much for capturing our little one so beautifully!
I LOVE her adorable sundresses! She is such a cutie pie. Very nice job capturing the cute smiles. Lovely family…
Kaelyn is so precious! And you captured her and her family so beautifully

Beautiful!

i LOVE your pictures and that little girl is absolutely precious..:) the dog is really cute too!
Vir! Your baby is so precious. And the best dressed baby EVER! Emmy wishes she was smaller so she could get the hand me downs. Poor baby wears the same 5 outfits all the time. And the Ewok is super cute. Hope s/he’s handling baby duties well.
The sweetest pictures EVER!

Love the closet shot – that is one well dressed little baby. Great work.
