Engagement sessions are amazing. I think every couple should have one because they are so awesome. It helps you get used to being in front of the camera, and it’s basically a great time to connect with your bride/husband to be! Trust me; no one walks away from one of my engagement sessions without a smile on their face. And sometimes, a little bit exhausted too! Looking good for the camera can be hard work people!! And my couples ALWAYS look good.
When I get couples who share a love for adventure, my photographer’s heart sings. I always love an opportunity to venture out and see what inspiration nature will provide. Of course, it never disappoints. Rachel and Cody just got engaged, and they wanted some portraits to display and share, but also a collection of photos […]
Folsom Lake, located in northern California on the American River, is one of my favorite locations for engagement sessions. The natural, wood-lined trails, peaceful lake, and fields of wildflowers mirror the recently-engaged bliss of couples who are ready to spend the rest of their lives together. The openness gives them space to laugh, walk, chat, […]
If I had to describe these two in one word, it would be genuine. Everything about them is loving, sincere, and real. For their engagement session, I didn’t have to ask them to fake any poses—they were perfect just as themselves. Megan and Cody have a special, once-in-a-lifetime kind of love the others dream about. […]
If you’ve never visited the Japanese Tea Garden at San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park, I highly recommend it. During the fall season, the foliage just comes alive with bright orange, red, yellow, and evergreen leaves—if you’re looking for autumn, you will be sure to find it in this serene garden. If you can’t make it […]
I’m a hopeless romantic. All these gorgeous couples I have the privilege to photograph don’t help my case. I get to hear their stories, see them interact, and capture their love as my heart melts into a pile of mush over and over again. I’m captivated by each unique story and mesmerized by the connections […]
I am absolutely loving the gorgeous fall colors this year! It was the perfect time of year for this Apple Hill Engagement Session!
Capturing this Apple Hill Engagement Session for Terrence and Cecelia was nothing short of an absolute honor. What a stunning couple they are!
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 […]
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 […]
Traveling provides such a wonderful and unique life experience. Not only do you get to see beautiful views unlike any you may see in your own backyard, you also get the pleasure of being immersed in other cultures and traditions a world over. You gain the sightly views, but more importantly, the worldly views of […]
