This was my 5th session with this family and every one just gets better and better. Kaleigh always has such good ideas for locations and she always styles her family impeccably. This year we chose a cliff full of sea lavender and the weather could not have been more perfect. But, what really makes their […]

If you looked at Josh and Eliza’s wedding you might think it happened in the spring, possibly summer. But no, only in gorgeous Southern California could you have a stunning garden wedding in November. I was obsessed with all the pastels and earth tones. The Barton House was a perfect backdrop for a wedding full […]

There’s something truly magical about capturing love and anticipation against the backdrop of the ocean. This maternity session in Carlsbad, California was nothing short of breathtaking—filled with laughter, intimacy, and golden light that just got better and better as the evening went on.  We started the evening on the cliffs where they held each other […]

Yes, you read that right. Not a wedding theme you see everyday but also, my most favorite wedding I’ve every shot. Adriene and I used to bartend together so I had an in to get to photograph this wedding and I can’t tell you how excited I was to do it. First of all, I […]

When Matisen and I started talking about plans for their engagement session, she told me she wanted something non-traditional, romantic, with lots of black and whites.
