Monterey Family Session // The Payne Family
I’ve photographed the Payne family for the past four years and it’s so nice to see how they grow as a family year to year! They’re a local Pebble Beach family who spends a lot of time at Still Water Cove and wanted to capture their holiday session in a space they know and love. This cove can be tricky with tides but we got so lucky with a nice low tide and sunny weather! I love how Mandy styled her family, her dress is Anthropologie and the girl’s outfits are from Velveteen. Mandy always does a great job printing her pictures and I can’t wait to see what she does with these!

N + K were married two days ago at the Santa Barbara courthouse but always wanted to have photos in Big Sur. I was so honored when N told me she had been following my work since before she was even engaged and knew she wanted me to be her photographer. They scheduled a three-hour elopement to have the best light in the forest and at sunset. A day before their session we saw that heavy rain and winds were in the forecast, so after a bit of rearranging, we were able to move it up by a day and skip all the rain. I actually normally love a misty, low-fog day, but three hours with heavy wind and rain can be difficult, so I was glad to be able to accommodate the move. Feeling so honored to be able to capture a bit of N + K’s love story in Big Sur.
