Adam + Bianca // San Clemente Engagement


You wouldn’t know it from looking at the photos but we photographed Adam and Bianca’s Engagement Session in late January (yes, I’m a little behind on blogging, haha). We met over at the gorgeous Casa Romantica in San Clemente and had the whole venue to ourselves! What could be more romantic than being in the […]

Big Sur holds a special place in Erik and Marisa’s hearts.

Kyle + Emily // Plaza de Magdalena Wedding


I don’t think Emily stop giggling all day. Ear-to-ear, uncontrollable smiles. I guess that’s what happens when two High School Sweethearts tie the knot after years of becoming best friends. Love doesn’t come at a particular age or time in life, but when you find it hold it tight and don’t let go. The ceremony […]

Chris and Lauryn’s love for the Phantom of the Opera and the theater inspired their wedding theme with bold red roses and long draping velvet curtains. Got to love their red hot details!

Mick + Jen // Orange County Wedding


The day started out with Jen receiving a two paged single-spaced love letter from her husband-to-be. There is nothing sweeter than a love note – and a sure way to ruin fresh makeup with tears. Jen was adorned with a cathedral veil, handmade by her Aunt and walked with her dad down the aisle and […]
