It still doesn’t feel real to write this—but I am beyond honored to share that Brandon and Lauren’s romantic San Francisco City Hall micro-wedding has been published in Tatler’s August print issue as part of an exclusive Condé Nast advertising campaign.

This campaign is invite-only, and when the opportunity came through, I quite literally had to read the email twice. Tatler has long been a source of inspiration—a publication that celebrates timeless beauty, elevated artistry, and meaningful storytelling. To be included among such renowned creatives is something I’ll never take for granted.

Brandon and Lauren’s day felt like a quiet love letter to the city. The symmetry of the architecture, the hush of marble hallways, the way the light danced in golden beams around them—it was cinematic, intimate, and entirely them. Micro-weddings like theirs remind me why I do what I do. There’s something so sacred about capturing a moment that feels like the world paused just for two people.

To now see those moments honored in the pages of Tatler? I’m speechless. It’s a dream I’ve carried since I was a teenager with a film camera in hand—and today, it’s real.

To my couples: thank you for trusting me with your stories, your emotions, your once-in-a-lifetime moments. Your trust is the reason opportunities like this happen.

And to Brandon and Lauren: your love, your quiet confidence, and your deep care for one another made this day unforgettable. Thank you for letting me be a part of it.

With gratitude and heart,
Danielle
