I'm a lover of color, family, love, laughter + sunshine.

 

I also live on coffee + tacos, but what mom of toddlers doesn't?1

Dawn + John { Santa Barbara Elings Park Pirate Themed Wedding }

To start off, I would love to quote Robert Fulghum, because I think he said it best: “We’re all a little weird. And life is a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness—and call it love—true love.” Life...

Elie + Jeff { La Quinta Desert Engagement Session }

Lovers of music, life, and each other. What else could you ask for? Tomorrow they are getting married in the backyard of Jeff parent’s house, and I’m so touched to be there to photograph it. Congratulations you two!

Ashley + Omead { Big Sur California Engagement Session }

Have I mentioned how much I love traveling and seeing new locations? It’s kinda like a 5 year old seeing a new shinny object. Must have and must figure out how it works. Ashley and Omead are tying the knot in Southern California later this year, but when I asked them what location was important...

Kylie + Andrew { Houston TX – The Gallery Houston Wedding }

With Kylie + Andrew’s wedding, we ended 2013 with a bang! Earlier last year I met with the two of them in Laguna for a destination engagement session, and I was so incredibly flattered that they wanted me to make the trip out to Houston Texas for their wedding! Instead of flying out like sane...

Sarah + Daniel { Nelson, Nevada Ghost Town Engagement Session }

Last year, over warm coffee and yummy breakfast foods…Sarah, Daniel and I brainstormed for cool, unique spots for their engagement session. See these two are exactly my type of people…and they wanted an engagement session that was just as unique as them. No beach and khakis for them. 😉  Years ago I photographed a session in...

Chelsea + Brian { Santa Barbara El Encanto Resort Wedding }

  Hello lovlies! Chelsea + Brian will always have a soft spot in my heart. Two years ago I photographed her sisters wedding in Palm Springs, and that day I was watching Chelsea + Brian from a distance (creepy I know). This isn’t completely normal for me, but something about these two just drew me...

2014 is the year of Appreciating Moments

Instead of New Year Resolutions that are only doomed to fail, instead I’m making this the year of appreciating moments, feelings and acceptance. 2014 is the year of: Becoming a wife Deep Breaths Trusting God (Most) Nights off & not taking myself too seriously. The photo below was taken in Colorado for Aimee + Eric’s...

Thea + Cody { Lake Crystal, Minnesota Farm Wedding }

Since Thea + Cody’s wedding is such a unique (and awesome) take on a wedding day, I wanted Thea to share a little about their experience: From the bride: Cody and I have been together for almost ten years, so we were already pretty committed to each other (and our fur baby), but we felt...

Amanda + James { Placerville, CA Fenton Herriott Vineyards Wedding }

Back in June, Jay and I made our way up to Sacramento for Amanda + James wedding in Placerville, CA. Like I mentioned earlier, I really like these guys.

Chelsea + Brian { Santa Barbara Farmers Market + Mission Engagement Session }

I seriously love seeing familiar faces. To me it’s like a full glass of wine just waiting to be enjoyed. You can’t beat it. I’ve known Chelsea since her sisters engagement in 2011, and since then I’ve been welcomed into the family arms wide open. So when I heard the news of Chelsea + Brian’s...
