H + J chose Carmel by the Sea for their engagement session. They have known each other since high school, and their relationship is so full of laughter that it was easy to capture them naturally. I appreciate both of you for trusting me to preserve this time of your life in Carmel. I love Carmel for engagement sessions as a variety of landscapes and the ability to get away from crowds is second to none.

Lauren and Courtney are Engaged!!! I felt so honored to work with Lauren on her proposal to Courtney at the beautiful Ventana Big Sur Hotel. Lauren and Courtney love playing Scrabble together and stay at Ventana Big Sur multiple times a year. Lauren had a custom Scrabble piece made on Etsy that said “Will You Marry Me?”.

California engagement photographer of M+ R. They met while they were both on separate vacations in Anchorage Alaska, they chatted for a while in a local bar and exchanged IG info. A few months later they met up in Colorado and that is where their love story began.

Jordan and Taylor were engaged in Big Sur along the coastline with family and friend overlooking the engagement. Jordan wants to be married in the forest so we adventured into to forest of Big Sur and they posed among the tall redwood trees. Super fun day!
