A Picture-Perfect Surprise Proposal at Treebones Resort

When Ken reached out to me to capture his surprise destination proposal in Big Sur, at Treebones Resort, I knew it was going to be something truly special. He had arranged for a breathtaking setup with a heart arch and flowers, perfectly placed against the backdrop of the rugged California coastline. We hoped for the golden hour light but squeaked by before the storm hit later that evening! The stage was set for a moment they would cherish forever. Watching his partner’s face light up with pure joy and emotion as he got down on one knee was an unforgettable sight, and I felt honored to document every bit of it.

The awe-inspiring Pacific Coast of California has always been a dream destination for romantic moments, and this destination proposal in Big Sur was no exception. The love between Ken and his soon-to-be fiancée Victoria was evident in every glance, every hug, and every heartfelt laugh. After the big “Yes!” we explored the surrounding area for some stunning post-proposal portraits, capturing the raw happiness and excitement of the moment. It was a privilege to freeze these emotions in time, ensuring they can relive their magical day for years to come. Congratulations to the happy couple!

True love is easy to see/feel in every photo I took of Marla and Ryan; I had a difficult time narrowing down which images to post!

Elegant engagement photos are so lovely, and exude the intimate connection between two souls.   I totally loved Marla’s beautiful red long skirt too – it was an awesome contrast to the colors of nature all around.  Moonstone Beach in Cambria has it all, sand, cliffs, trees, rocks, boardwalk, trails…

What a true pleasure it was to capture Marla + Ryan’s love… I’m blessed!

Lynn + Ming’s Couples Photo Shoot in Cambria

Lynn and Ming from Singapore scheduled a couple’s photography session on their vacation! I love meeting such a variety of sweet, unique, lovely and adventurous people from around the world. Together for 12 years, they were traveling the California Coast from S.F. to Pismo Beach. I think they’ll remember Cambria best, as they smiled, hugged and laughed throughout their photo shoot from the coastline out to the local country roads. “SO Much better than ‘our in-the-mirror’ or ‘selfies’ pics,” they said!
