Harpo Harrigan

Nancy & Aaron
May 5th we helped our friend Teddy shoot his cousin Nancy wedding in San Francisco. I wasn’t restricted by flying so I utilized a paint pole which extends much higher than my monopod. Here’s a very small sample of images from the wedding.
Wayfare Tavern
As a pre-birthday celebration for Sandy I made reservations at the Wayfare Tavern a Tyler Florence Restaurant in San Francisco. We ferried in and had an amazing dinner.
Isabella
Wanting to shoot more portraits, we took Isabella out this morning for a short session by an arched door that I’ve had my eye on for quite a while.
