Happy month anniversary to Michael & Alyce. It was a dream come true for us to shoot this wedding for you guys @thesearanchlodge. Truly it was an incredible day with an amazing team of vendors! As we reflect on another year in business coming to a close, we cannot believe that it has been almost 9 […]

Reflecting back on this summer with pure gratitude. I still have to pinch myself that Eli and I get to do this job we love so much together. We get to create art, bring joy to others and create for them stills/films that will help them remember one of the most important days of their […]

So excited to share photos and a super 8 film for this amazing wedding! Mendocino is one of my favorite places in the world and @switzerfarm is a dream to shoot at as always! Nicole and Isaiah this was truly an amazing day and seeing your love for one another & contestant encouragement for each other all […]

Documenting a wedding day as a video/photo team has been a gift. Being able to be intentional as a team before the wedding day and get to know each couples story to make their film/gallery unique to their wedding weekend experience has been a joy. This wedding Eli and I had been going over for […]

One of my favorite elopements, ever. I loved how easy going it was and also how diverse it was. We did an engagement session at a local park the same day they got married in the city (seen on a separate blog post), shot at city hall for the ceremony and then shot in China […]

This proposal was stunning, it was located at Schafer Vineyards right next to the volcano & the view of the vineyards. I could not think of a better location for a proposal in Napa. Then after the proposal Mike surprised Maeve with her family by having them fly out to surprise her. It was truly […]

This is why I do creative shoots. They fuel my soul, give me inspiration for my wedding season, and let me try new and challenging things. Shooting on a fast ferry, swaying while shooting, shooting in rain and in darker indoor yellow light conditions are all things I wanted to perfect. I also have been […]

I cannot wait for Nicole & Isaiah’s Mendocino wedding at Switzer Farm next month. When Nicole reached out for this whimsical engagement shoot idea, I did a little happy dance! These two are the sweetest couple and willing to brave wind, cold and the one sunny day a-mist crazy snowy/rain storms. Eli and I had […]

A couple years ago I had an idea to do a series of nostalgic shoots based upon some of my best childhood memories. Last year @mua.samanthak and I did a shoot at a artwork inspired Pee wee golf place that I had some of my best memories as a kid. For this shoot I wanted […]
