A look back at a few of my 2025 weddings — full of real emotion, quiet in-between moments, and love that felt effortless.
These days reminded me why I photograph weddings the way I do: honestly, gently, and with so much heart.
As I begin opening my calendar for 2026 & 2027, I’m so excited for the stories still waiting to be told.
Scroll through, soak it in, and if this feels like your kind of love story — I’d love to hear from you ✨
She arrived in blush and grace. 🌸 A vintage pink car, a chapel veil, a cape that danced in the ocean breeze — and Dana Point as her backdrop.
This styled shoot at the West Yacht Club in Dana Point was a dream to photograph, and proof that Southern California weddings don’t get more romantic than this.

There is something incredibly special about being trusted to document a wedding day. Out of all the moments in life, your wedding is one of the few days where every person you love most is gathered together in one place — celebrating your story, your relationship, and the life you’re building together.
As a wedding photographer, I never take that responsibility lightly. Capturing the quiet in-between moments, the tears during vows, the way your partner looks at you when you aren’t paying attention… those are the memories that become priceless over time.
Getting to preserve love stories in a real, honest, and timeless way is one of the greatest privileges of my life. Thank you to every couple who has trusted me to photograph such an important chapter of their story. 🤍
If you’re currently planning your wedding and searching for a photographer who values genuine moments, emotional storytelling, and timeless wedding photography, I would absolutely love to connect. Serving couples across Los Angeles, Long Beach, Orange County, San Diego, and destination weddings.
The little things mean so much to me. “Hey I recommended you to my friend” text that makes my jump for joy in my apartment and excitedly tell my family about the new memories I get to capture…. I just love my job and I love all of you for the wonderful ways you make my job special as a wedding and elopement photographer. 🥹🩷
POV: you open your sneak peeks and it’s your wedding day… but softer, slower, and exactly how it felt 🤍
Your family farm, the place that holds your memories, turned into the place you said your vows. The kind of day where everything feels personal — the dirt roads, the open fields, your people all in one place. Nothing staged, nothing forced. Just real moments, real emotion, and a story that actually feels like you.
Sneak peeks are more than just “a few photos.” They’re that first deep breath after your wedding day. The “we really did that” moment. The beginning of reliving it all over again.
If you’re planning a wedding that’s meaningful, a little nostalgic, and completely your own — this is your reminder to choose a wedding photographer who knows how to capture it as it felt, not just how it looked.
