    Torrey Pines Engagement {Rose+Montry}

    March 2, 2019

    Torrey Pines State Park Engagement Photographing engagement sessions in Southern California is always amazing. I love a great Torrey Pines Engagement session, and this one was one for the books. Rose and Montry are the sweetest and most enjoyable couple to be around! Rose and Montry are both from California, but live a couple hours from Torrey Pines State Park. They wanted to have photos at the beach, and this was a perfect fit. I love the architecture of the old Torrey Pines ranger station. The light as the sun comes through the beautiful torrey pines is pure magic! Although…

    February 22, 2019

    Half Moon Bay Wedding Photographer Photographing Half Moon Bay engagement sessions in the Bay Area is always amazing. I photographed Reetu’s sisters Indian wedding in Salt Lake City . It was wonderful to have the opportunity to work with her family again. They live in the Bay Area, and their wedding will be taking place at the Nakoma Resort in Lake Tahoe. Although I am based a couple states away, I always love photographing couples in California. The coast of Northern California is beyond beautiful. I love the high cliffs and beautiful light of Half Moon Bay. There is no shortage…

    Albion Basin Pre Wedding Cassie and Collin love spending time in the mountains! Their Albion Basin engagement session was absolutely perfect for showing that love! These two have such unbelievable chemistry and I had the best time photographing their engagements! Albion Basin has to be one of my favorite spots in Utah. The light as it comes through the trees and wildflowers is complete magic! Not to mention the views over the valley below. The area is known for its amazing hiking and ski areas. It has also become very popular for photography over the last few years. With extraordinaire views…

I love photographing weddings in Zion, and am so happy to have photographed Whitney and Daniel’s special day! This was a destination wedding in all senses of the word. Traveling all the way from Australia, the two came across the world to be married in Zion National Park. Many of their friends and families came from the east coast, or from Australia.

I had the wonderful opportunity to recently photograph the wedding of Lindsay and Adam at The Montage. Michelle Leo Events was the coordinator for the wedding and as always, they did a flawless job. They have such an amazing eye for detail, and such great control over the goings on of the day. Lindsay and Adam were in amazing hands. Like most Park City and Deer Valley weddings, this was a destination wedding for all involved. It was wonderful to see how many…

    Guardsman’s Pass Engagement {Carrie+Jeff}

    August 7, 2017

    Park City Wedding Photographer Park City and the Deer Valley area are one of my absolute favorite places to photograph a wedding or engagement session. Carrie and Jeff mentioned that they wanted to have mountains and trees for their engagement photos. I knew guardsman’s pass was the perfect spot to take their photos. I love the mountains, the light and the trees at Guardsman’s pass. The panoramic views though, are what really make this location stand out. It is a breathtaking location with vistas looking over Park City on one side, and Heber on the other. As a Park City, and Deer…

    July 28, 2017

    Wedding at Zion Overlook I love to photograph weddings in Zion National Park. The majestic views and panoramic vistas make for one of the most magnificent wedding backdrops in the world. It is no wonder that couples travel from all over to be married in this awe inspiring location. More often then not weddings in Zion National Park end up down in the canyon. The temple of Sinawava is a beautiful spot that captures some of the canyon feel from below. If you are looking for a spot in the park though, that really captures the essence of Zion, there…

    Hoi An Engagement Photos An and Ben were both going to school in Australia, where they met several years ago. An and Ben are from different parts of Vietnam but have since moved to the city of Danang. Only about a half hours drive from the city of Danang is the quint and perfect city of Hoi An. Graceful, historic Hoi An is Vietnam’s most atmospheric and picture perfect town. Hoi An was once a major port throughout the ages. It now boasts architecture and a serene riverside setting that befits its french heritage.

This engagement photo session with McKenzie and Adam provided some awesome light! I love the sun shining through the Joshua Trees where we started their photo session.

I grew up in San Diego, and always love coming back to photograph weddings. Many people know of Liberty Station as the navy base.
