I really don’t think I’ll ever get over Jen and Andrew’s wedding on the northern California coast 🥹 Set between the iconic Sea Ranch homes and the art-forward town of Gualala, the incredible couple and their guests - beauty surrounded us the whole day 🌊🌲 #portraits #californiacoast #weddingphotographer #bayareaphotographer #santacruzphotographer

Fun fact about me is that I’ve taught 8 years of elementary education 👩‍🏫 M + O were my students in first grade in 2020 (yup our class unexpectedly moved to remote learning during the Covid pandemic!), and it’s just absolutely amazing to photograph them now as they’re growing into such awesome little ladies 🌸 Also I LOVE shooting at the colored houses in capitola! Keep an eye out for some mini sessions here this summer! #portraits #californiacoast #familyphotographer #bayareaphotographer #santacruzphotographer

Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the importance of what my photography is for my clients. While I love that social media is a platform to share the beautiful moments, I want my clients to know that what they’re paying for isn’t just a quick dopamine hit. My photos are a physical document you can hang, print, put into an album and look back on for the rest of your life. My photography is your personal history. I felt reminded of that when I sent off this session to the Smith Fam 🌞, who have been through an incredible amount of hardships in order to bring their two adorable kids into the world. I’m So happy that I could be a part of documenting this part of their history as a family 🥹 #portraits #californiacoast #familyphotographer #bayareaphotographer #santacruzphotographer

Pat + Jenny’s wedding couldn’t have been more relaxed. They invited their closest friends to stay in a rented house in Temecula on a beautifully warm weekend. Their ceremony was short but meaningful with intentional words shared between themselves and their best friend who officiated the wedding. Afterwards a personal chef made dinner for all, as the warm sun set and we took portraits among the grapes 🍇 #portraits #weddingphotographer #bayareaphotographer #santacruzphotographer
