Hakone Gardens Engagement // Roberta & Kevin

Every Hakone Gardens Engagement session is a delight to see! There’s something truly enchanting about Hakone Estate and Gardens: the way the manicured greenery blends seamlessly with serene water features, the charm of the Japanese-style tea house overlooking the pond, the little arched bridge beside the pond known as the Moon Bridge, and the quiet elegance of every hidden corner. As San Francisco wedding photographers, we love exploring every nook of this venue to capture couples in both natural and artful ways, turning each moment into a timeless memory.

Kevin and Roberta’s engagement session was a perfect reflection of their journey together. They first arrived in classic attire, him in a suit, her in a corporate gown with heels radiating sophistication and grace. Later, they switched into casual outfits, barefoot and carefree, capturing the playful, relaxed side of their connection. Their story began through an app, blossomed over Bay Area hikes, culinary adventures, and exploration, and led to a proposal atop Engagement Hill in the Marin Headlands, an unforgettable moment that embodies their adventurous spirit.

From the lush gardens to the quiet Moon Bridge and the picturesque Japanese-style tea house, every shot told a story of love, laughter, and shared adventure. This session perfectly captured the balance of elegance, fun, and intimacy that defines Kevin and Roberta’s relationship, leaving images that will be cherished for a lifetime.
