I love Sonoma County so much. I love it so much that every time a destination couple or even a friend comes here I immediately send them a list of 30 things they need to do and the longest list for places to eat at. That is when I got the idea to make this […]

Thank you @lindseykang_ and @kangpaul_ for helping us pull off my dream of a shoot on the subway. When it comes to creative shoots I usually sit on ideas before doing them. Often times if it is a trend I will sit on the idea and then let it go. As an artist I can […]

The last couple weeks of shoots revolving transportation has filled me with joy. For this couples shoot we shot around a beautiful thunderbird. Thank you @heartworkinn @whoismichaelroy for going above and beyond for all our ideas. Thanks for having one amazing idea for a real life depection shot for being broken down on the side of the […]

This Mendocino wedding started at the lighthouses on the cliffs, which were so dreamy! Then we headed to the redwoods for the ceremony and back to some private cliffs for sunset. This Mendocino wedding by the cliffs inspired me not only by the beauty, but by the sweet couples love for each other. Their joy […]

We originally had booked the day before this day at sunset. However, it got rained out so we chose the next morning when there was a break in the storm. Normally all my couples shoots are always at sunset for best light so this was a good challenge for me to embrace the harsh light […]

Over 6 years ago we traveled to Nashville and met this amazing couple and took pictures of them on a bridge just out of town. Many years later these two got engaged, married and bought/fixed up a home. We are back in town for a wedding and I could not think of the more perfect […]

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 […]

This beautiful San Fransisco city hall elopement started with an engagement shoot in the Dog-patch area. They ate yummy pasta and drank coffee before we headed to city hall. My favorite types of shots are ones revolved around food, so this was a dream come true for me. Jae and Jasmine you both inspire me […]

First time I have ever done an engagement session the same day as the wedding ceremony. I have done in home mini sessions before a wedding, but this was a full on in home and adventure around the city type of shoot. It was the best and truly loved every second of this San Fransisco […]

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 […]
