San Francisco Wedding Photographer
Here’s a sneak peak at some Engagment Photos [a.k.a. epics, e-pics, engagement pictures, portraits, session] I recently took of one of my favorite couples of 2011 at the newly renovated Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco, CA. We did a couple shots over at the Legion of Honor at the end as you will see.
A special thanks goes out to DIGITAL DESIGN DIRECT for their amazing Level 1, Wedding Image Post Processing on these pre-wedding engagement pictures.
Welcome to Robert Valdes Photography. I am a San Francisco wedding photographer with over 20 years experienced. I specialize in Organic, Elegant & Edgy wedding photojournalism that is at once expected and unexpected. In short, my clients expect AMAZING PICTURES from me and I do deliver everytime. However, I also deliver the unexpected images that go above and beyond anything that you will expect.
My website features images from weddings, engagement sessions, trash the dress sessions and all other works that I shoot in San Francisco, the SF Bay Area and Beyond.
I am also available for travel worldwide and I often shoot in Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe, Santa Barbara and Los Angeles.
Below are some of my favorite images from recent weddings I have photographed. When you view these wedding photos, you will notice many REAL CANDID MOMENTS, not just the posed ‘eye candy’ moments but also the in-between moments and once in a lifetime moments and expressions. My goal is to capture the emotion of the moment so you can relive it forever.
As mentioned, these are some of my most recent moments. I’ve moved my LEGACY IMAGE GALLERY to a different post. Click here to see my older FAVORITES.
I am a seasoned pro with 20 years of experience. I started in my early 20′s so I’m still relatively young and have the vitality and stamina necessary to take on 10 to 15 hour shoots. You can see me in action by clicking here.

As one of the most sought after San Francisco Wedding Photographer, the additional styles and techniques that I use and am interested in are: Wedding photojournalism, photojournalistic, journalistic, candid, posed formals, relaxed formals, traditional modern, eye light, butterfly light, five angles of the face and much more. I also use a BACKLIGHT that I call a lightstick which is basically an off camera flash that I use to backlight a subject or throw light from a different direction than the camera angle. The lightstick is also great for the times when one flash on the camera is not enough. I prefer the lightstick over cumbersome strobes because of the dynamic nature of wedding photography and the fact that often there is little to no time to set up strobes. I also like to travel light so that I can move to new locations quickly and easily with or without a wedding photography assistant.
