What started as a crush has developed into almost a decade of love. Eight years ago Derrek and Katie first started dating. Throughout college and learning who they wanted to be they grew together in their relationship and are looking forward to a new journey as husband and wife in June 2017. This new chapter will continue on the foundation of love and friendship that they’ve built and my hope for them is that they continue to adventure together and always cherish the years of love they have.
Derrek and Katie love to go camping and when I suggested a few locations for their Engagement Session they were eager to check out San Onofre State Beach Campground in San Clemente. They camped there a few weeks before their Engagement Session and fell in love with it. Its so close but feels so remote. To quote the Wheeland Brothers, its the “nearest far away place”. San O is one of my favorite escapes and so happy to share that with them.


Katie brought one of the sea shell succulent table centerpieces she is making for the wedding.

Tracy and Andrew had the sweetest, intimate wedding ceremony on the bluffs of Laguna Beach, overlooking the gorgeous coastline.
Tracy’s two daughters stood proudly by her side as bridesmaids, while Andrew’s two sons stood with him—making this beautiful day even more meaningful and special. 🥂
@ocbeachweddings brought the perfect touches for a coastal celebration, including parasols and fans for the guests, plus champagne for the bride and groom to cheers with. They made sure everything ran smoothly so Tracy and Andrew could simply soak in every moment of their beautiful day. ✨

Nicolette & Tyler had the most gorgeous wedding day on the bluffs of Dana Point, overlooking the harbor.
Their ceremony took place at the beautiful Heritage Park Alcove, followed by an intimate reception at the Chart House. As the evening unfolded, the warm, romantic golden sunset lit up the coast, creating the most magical backdrop for celebrating their love. ✨🌅
A truly beautiful Dana Point wedding filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable coastal views.

I can’t believe my sweet little Skyla Jade is already two months new and my daughter Cali will be three this week! I’m such a lucky mama to have such sweet girls.
