I’m thrilled to see this image from Michaela and John’s Sonoma wedding place in the ISPWP Summer 2017 contest. I am always pushing to get a better perspective to capture the true emotion and story of the day; and, I love everything this says about all the friends and family surrounding these two lovers at […]
I’m always extra humbled when another photographer chooses me to capture their wedding journey! I was honored to know Chris from the Sacramento community, and his fiance Kayleigh is as sweet as she is beautiful!! For this session we traveled around downtown Sacramento taking advantage of the natural light and culture. Chris and Kayleigh wanted […]
Friends are such a gift. They share similar interests, offer great advice, and help you navigate through this crazy journey of life. Some friends stay for a season, some last a lifetime, and some are lucky enough to get the title of “best friend”. If you’re really lucky, you’ll get to marry your best friend. […]
I love watching love in action. I once heard that love is often mistaken for a feeling, when it in fact is an action- a decision. I couldn’t agree with this sentiment more. Feelings come and go, but when you decide to wake up everyday and love somebody you know you’re in it for the […]

Wedding planning is such an exciting time for couples. Months and months of working out the perfect arrangements, tweaking the seating charts, and trying out every flavor cake until you’re sure if you try one more you’ll have to let your dress out an inch. All the choices can sometimes make it stressful, but it […]
Spain has been on our bucket list for many years. So when we started planning our 20th wedding anniversary trip, we knew it was time to go! We try and travel often and every five years on landmark anniversaries go on our adventures sans children. We missed them terribly, but it was nice to have […]
There’s something about travel and the experiences of meeting new people from different backgrounds that opens your heart, mind, and soul. When Betsey went to France, I don’t know that she expected to find the love of her life. But that’s exactly what happened. And it was nothing short of magical. But with the warmth […]
