What began as a pregnancy announcement photo session became an unforgettable surprise proposal in the heart of San Francisco. Thinking they were simply documenting the excitement of their growing family, Janelle had no idea that Nate had planned a proposal during their session.


Their photos took us through some of San Francisco’s most iconic locations, including Pier 39, Fisherman’s Wharf, The Embarcadero, and Rincon Park, with stunning views of the San Francisco Bay Bridge as the backdrop. From joyful anticipation to complete surprise, every moment reflected the excitement of two major milestones happening at once.


This San Francisco surprise proposal and pregnancy announcement session beautifully combined romance, emotion, and the city’s breathtaking waterfront scenery.
