Some love stories are best celebrated surrounded by the people who matter most, with the beauty of California's coastline serving as the perfect backdrop. Hannah and James' wedding was exactly that—a heartfelt celebration filled with breathtaking views, meaningful moments, and unforgettable memories. Their day began with an intimate ceremony at Wedding Rock, where they exchanged vows in front of their closest family. Perched above the rugged coastline, Wedding Rock offered sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, creating a setting that felt both peaceful and awe-inspiring.

Claudia and Avery Eloped this week in Carmel, California, with both their best friends, all the love in the world for each other, and nothing but laughter. We adventured to the cliffs where their friends led them through heartfelt vows; they celebrated with a champagne spray and shots. We explored Garrapata Beach for couples portraits and their first dance on the beach. They had the most beautiful, heartfelt day, and I felt so lucky to be a part of it.

Aline and Dean eloped this week in Big Sur, California by the tall redwood trees, they exchanged their vows with their toes in the sand and danced at the edge of the cliffs by the Pacific Ocean.

Carina and RJ came to Big Sur and stayed at Ventana for their adventure elopement. Their first look was under the tall redwoods and the ceremony was on the edge of the cliffs on the Big Sur coastline where they both had the sweetest words while reading their vows with the Pacific Ocean waves crashing behind them!
