Carmel Elopement
K + K came to Carmel from the UK to elope and chose me as their photographer! I felt so honored to show them around and do all the California things. From driving a vintage mustang to going to In N’ OUT and saying their vows on the cliffs. I absolutely loved where they stayed in carmel the Petit Pali Hotel was full of charm and unique design. I used one of their vintage coffee table books for details and loved capturing them writing the last bit of their vows on the perfectly cute bed before they both helped each other get ready. The petit Pali is decorated in such a thoughtful way and the staff was so helpful and kind even singing as witness to their elopement ceremony. Thank you both so much for including me in your day

Brandon and Kathryn had the most beautiful Big Sur Proposal. Originally Brandon wanted to propose at Ventana, but decided to switch it last minute to a surprise photo shoot with a proposal during it. I had so much fun planning with Brandon and showing them some views they hadn’t seen before. From their cliff proposal to running on the beach, it was the perfect combo of epic views and lots of movement, playful fun. I’m so honored Brandon trusted me with his Big Sur proposal.
Emily and Austin eloped at Jedediah Smith Redwoods this week in California. With a private ceremony surrounded by massive redwoods, they continued their day with a beautiful first dance on the beach, followed by a picnic, where they mixed custom cocktails, surrounded by my favorite feature, beach grass. They had such a beautiful day crossing back and forth between the Oregon and California border.
