Coming from Utah to intimately speak their vows to one another made with only a minister, me the official witness as well as the photographer. I so enjoyed my time with Craig and Kate!  After the ceremony and some lovely portraits,, their spark for a few fun in-the-water ocean shots arose which was really fun! A beach elopement is great for any couple who wants to marry in a secluded location with limited guests, or even no guests like Craig and Kate! It’s such a beautiful way to focus solely on your partner and your vows.

{Pet Photography Photo Session} Staci + Al while on vacation!!!

Pet Photography

I had the pleasure of meeting Staci and Al before they were married on their first vacation to Cambria.  They planned to meet up again on their most recent vacation to have some portraits taken of them with their adorable dogs Lexi and Sal on Moonstone Beach, and at the darling beach cottage they rented too! Pet photography is so adorable and fun for me! Dogs make for interesting clients, which result in fun photos! Plus, whats better than spending time with pets for my job? It’s so cool to see how connected people are to their own dogs, what a loving relationship!

Intimate Chapel Wedding in California’s Coastal Small Town Harmony { Lisa + Mark }

An Intimate Chapel Wedding in small towns are simply delightful. Not only because you can really hear the officiants words of love, acceptance, guidance, support etc, and it feels endearing.  But also because I think small towns embody a special warmth that carries into the sweetness of the day.  I catch myself smiling the entire time I’m photographing the event… and I love it.

Intimate weddings are perfect for couples who choose to spend their wedding day entirely focused on each other. It’s a sweet, loving, and beautiful ceremony to share exclusively with a limited amount of guests or each other.
