    La Jolla Cove Bridal Photos {Dorothy+Kurt}

    April 1, 2015

    I have photographed countless weddings and couples in La Jolla and around San Diego over the years but am always in awe of the amazing beauty of Southern California.

    LA Observatory Engagement {Katie + Brian}

    April 29, 2014

    I was so thrilled to go out to Los Angeles to photograph Katie and Brian’s engagement session at the LA Observatory. What a great session! Katie and Brian are such an incredibly fun couple to be around, and really are just so in love. I love the Observatory in Los Angeles. Its a breath of fresh air… literally from the busy city below. Situated up in the hills it mixes the modern art deco lines of the observatory with the nature and surrounding it. Photographing Katie and Brian there reminded me just how much Southern California has to offer. From…

    Amorology Wedding (Featured on the Style me pretty)

    April 12, 2010

    Robyn and Brandend’s Wedding was a science them. Yeah sounded a bit crazy to me too when Heather of Amorology told me the idea. Like always though, Heather pulled it off, and put together an absolutely beautiful event centered around the them of Science. Every table had a different center piece, and periodic table number. The guest cards were in test tubes, and the candy and flowers in beakers. It was really fantastic, and I was so pleased to be a part of it. Style Me Pretty also loved it, and featured it on their website today. Please everyone, check it out, and leave…

    Encinitas Engagement Session (Haley & Chase)

    March 15, 2010

    I loved doing this great couples engagement photos in Encinitas. Haley and Chase made the trek from Provo to California for their engagement session. Theirs is one of the many shoots Nate Pickett of NP Films and I did while we were there last month. We scored with these beautiful fields of flowers. It was the exact look Haley had mentioned when we first talked about her engagements. Their wedding will be in Las Vegas… maybe not as green, but with these two, for sure tons of fun!
