High School Sweethearts hold a special place in my heart – especially when they hail from my alma-mater El Toro High School! Emily and Kyle are the second couple Ive photographed that have been dating since they went to El Toro. I first starting dating my now husband when I was just a JR in highschool. Love doesnt come at a particular age or time in life, but when you find it hold it tight and dont let go. Enjoy growing in life and love together and always be each other’s biggest fans.
Kyle proposed to Emily in downtown Laguna Beach so it was only fitting that we head back to Laguna for their Engagement Session. Just like the day after Emily said “YES!” we made sure to stop by Urth Caffe and grab a quick latte mid photoshoot. It was so sweet having their dog Sullivan join us for the photoshoot and great having Emily’s sister take special care of Sully while we romped around Laguna Beach.
Kyle and Emily I am so excited for you two and am so inspired seeing your love grow over all these years. Congratulations!!


Here’s a recent album. I’m delivering to my clients tomorrow. I don’t get to show them off as I have them delivered directly to my clients, but I had this one on hand and wanted to show you. For the cover, they chose a stone, distressed leather with a cameo, showcasing, one of their photos and engraving of their name and wedding date. These albums make such a great heirloom and I love seeing their love story unfold in the album.
Sarah and Judah met at church and after just a couple coffee dates sparks were flying! Their relationship grew from there and over a year later Judah popped the question.
They share such a sweet love. I’m so happy for them.
The First Look is so special. 💕 It’s a time set aside, before the ceremony, for just the bride and groom to see each other and have a moment before they go into the rest of their day together.
