You know when you meet someone and they feel like you have been friends for years? Well that was these two. We bonded over our love for food and traveling as well as later the type of music. They had Ben Rector’s I like you as their first dance song. Thats the band that opened […]

I get asked this question roughly 40 times a year. I love that every couple asks me this question, because what you wear to a session effects how it will turn out just as much as the location. Think of this as a puzzle. You have to get all the puzzle pieces in the right […]

I honestly did not want to take a ton of pictures this Oahu trip but instead just spend as much time sleeping, eating and enjoying family time. I feel like I did this and I need to do this more often on trips. Truly I shut off my phone a lot of the times and […]

I honestly always thought of Oahu as the touristy island full of big buildings and cluttered with people on every beach. I have been to Maui and Kuaui and thought nothing could compare to those islands but oh how I was wrong. East & North shore resembled Kuaui’s mountain ranges and beaches so much. Plus, […]

For a day that was supposed to be rainy for their Point Reyes engagement session, it sure turned out to be beautiful. We pranced in the meadows, chased the sunset and walked over a lot of dunes by the sea. It may have been super windy but man it was so stunning. The waves on […]

I met Toni & Andrew through our mutual friend Lindsay. The second we jumped on face time and started talking it felt like we had been old friends. Maybe thats what happens when you share a mutual friend or maybe its because these two just have a way of making you feel like old friends […]

So the story of how I met Sadie was a God moment for sure. I happened to shoot her friend Madison’s pictures and before I even shot her pictures she recommended me to Sadie. Within minutes I got a DM from her and within hours we were Facetiming about her wedding and bonding over Jesus […]

It would be easy to post these pictures and to say this was the best trip ever but I am working on being vulnerable with everyone in my life. Kauai was bittersweet. My best friend told me the day we left she was moving away, we got a call for a baby that did not […]

I planned what I wanted this shoot to look like for the last two years. Call me crazy but this girl likes to plan. I wanted to go back to the home where we worshipped and prayed for peace over my hysterctomy and the adoption process. I wanted to go back to the place where […]

Seriously, so glad I met these two, not only do they love Jesus but they also are one amazing videography team. I CANNOT wait to work with them hopefully someday soon. (So please hire them you guys they work magic!) They danced for me in the desert, shot on their super 8 video camera and […]
