Custom House Plaza, Monterey, California Wedding Gee and Andy

I approach wedding photography like I'm shooting for a documentary, a love story. I like to believe couples and families will look back on these photos with their children and grandchildren. What an honor that I was chosen to document every detail so that Gee & Andy won't have any problem remembering their perfect day when they choose to re-tell it. Their memory gardens wedding in Monterey was magical, the magnolia trees were blooming, the sun peeked through the trees just as Andy promised Gee forever and all their loved ones gasped as Gee walked down the aisle. Photography can be a love-hate relationship, constantly comparing oneself to others, or feeling uninspired. I love when I get to step back from being the director and just watch for the beauty in the details. And there were so many beautiful details!

Rachel and Jonnie had the most beautiful elopement day at the Sequoia Retreat in Santa Cruz California. They originally planned their day in Big Sur but two days before their planned elopement the road slide happened and we had to re-plan to make their redwood dreams a reality. With the help of the Sequoia Retreat Center letting us use their beautiful property and the adventure to the coast in a rented vintage Mustang from Monterey Touring Vehicles and the most amazing picnic by the incredible Michelle with Forage Vintage rentals, their day came together beautifully.

M & J eloped in an intimate ceremony in Pebble Beach, California on a rainy afternoon last week. The private beach where the ceremony was held was one she had been tide-pooling since she was a child so it was extra special. After the ceremony they popped champagne and danced in the rain, as they finished their first dance the sun peeked out from behind the clouds and a rainbow appeared, It was beautiful!

Andy and Vicki’s Engagement session in Big Sur California in the rain was one of my favorite sessions this year. I absolutely love when couples just embrace the weather and have fun no matter what, because I’m all about the mood.
