California engagement photographer of M+ R. They met while they were both on separate vacations in Anchorage Alaska, they chatted for a while in a local bar and exchanged IG info. A few months later they met up in Colorado and that is where their love story began.

I was so honored to have 4 images chosen in the top finalist categories for the International Wedding Photographer of The Year 2023. Big Sur Elopement and Wedding Photography.

Big Sur couples adventure photography session, from the tall redwoods to the cliffs above the Pacific Ocean, Big Sur is an amazing place for your memories.

C & M grew up on the coast of California so ai knew I had to take them to some of my fav spots I knew they had never seen! Capturing their engagement was special to me because I have known Michael since High school, I was so honored to be a part of their special day!

Paula and Phil chose Big Sur for their adventure session along the Big Sur Coast of California to commemorate where Phil proposed. The cliffs of Big Sur were awesome for their session and we got some amazing Cliffside photos and drone shots!

Christina and Malcolm were engaged this week in Big Sur, they are getting married later this year in Banff, Canada. Malcolm wanted forest, and Christina wanted cliffs so we did a little of both. Their dog Ollie was with us and he loved both stops and everything in between!

It’s always fun to photograph a fellow photographer’s family and watch them as their children grow!! We choose Big Sur which was cold and windy this afternoon but the Redding family made exploring with the three boys look easy!

Justin and Ashley were engaged in their adventure session this week, with the beautiful fog rolling in and the evening light and the couple being madly in love, this was one awesome engagement shoot. Congratulations to them both!

Kirsten and I shoot weddings together so when she asked me to take her maternity photos I didn’t hesitate. We had the best day and with a little rain, there were very few people in Big Sur which made the adventure so fun!

The fog rolling over the hills during this time of year is so beautiful. My family and I love the fall, It's a time to focus on what’s important and spend time with those you love. Getting to spend the day with Jeremy, Kate, and Brody was such a pleasure. I love documenting the real moments between families, I hope they look back on images I take with fond memories and show them to their grown kids and grandkids one day.
