Valerie hired me as her Proposal Photographer to capture her secret marriage proposal to her girlfriend Tyle. They vacationed to California from New York and Valerie proposed on a beach in Cayucos.  It was entirely wonderful!!! She gave Tyler a hand written love letter and at the end it said “Now turn around” where Valerie held her ring!!!!  These two brides are beautiful together, inside and out, and I am so thankful to be a part of such amazing displays of true love! Meeting couples so in love and inspiring is just a small perk of my job.

Congratulations Valerie and Tyler!

Scott + Tony Married at Cambria Pines Lodge

Tony and Scott Cambria Pines Lodge Garden Wedding _Cambria_Destination_Gay Wedding_Wedding Photographer_Debbie Markham_gay_lgbt

Being a same sex wedding photographer for the Central Coast of California is rewarding on so many levels!  The vows seem more loving, kind, meaningful, funny, and reflective. But most importantly, full of the most important reasons we all want to be married; unconditional love for another human being! Their family and friends attending were united, accepting, and delightful. A Cambria Pines Lodge Garden Wedding is such an awesome location for a destination wedding in California.

The elegant rustic hotel and gorgeous grounds have been serving wedding couples for years. With marriage equality in California, they have open arms for same-sex weddings.   To top it off, Jane Wiedlin, 2nd vocalist for the 80’s band The GoGo’s officiated the ceremony. And stayed through the reception for a momentous event!
