Intimate stories.
Honest Moments.
Radical Love
I’m a storyteller who believes in the small moments being the important ones.
I'm a California native who loves to travel and chase the light in Big Sur, Yosemite, San Francisco and destinations everywhere. I Love to ski, snowboard, hike, kayak and explore new places. My dad passed on his love for national parks, the moon, vintage cameras and Polaroids. I became a photographer because I have always felt that photos are the best souvenirs of any moment I want to remember.
I feel the most inspired by wide open rugged landscapes and small intimate moments. From dreamy foggy mornings in the mountains to sun drenched sunsets by the coast I aim to photograph your love with an organic honesty that you can recognize your relationship in. This isn’t just a photoshoot this is a documentary of your love story.

What I value
Sincere Moments
I want to capture you and your love how you really are, the laughter, the romance, the moments of the day that matter.
A Documentary Approach
My favorite images are candids, the moment your dad sees you for the first time, the way you and your husband now look at each other across the room. Images you recognize yourselves in.
Love
I love capturing LOVE.
I value moments where you can be yourselves together and forget everything else.

FAQ
Do you offer mini sessions?
No, my smallest package is $1,700 for two hours and two locations.
Do you offer one hour elopement packages?
I want to capture all the moments a big wedding has. Three hours is the minimum amount of time I offer to capture your day on our coast. From getting ready. to reading your vows and enjoying your time together three hours goes very quickly!
How many Zoom calls can we have with you?
Generally two is perfect! Once before you are booked and once about a month before your wedding, this allows us to go over timeline and any adjustments that are needed!
What do we do if it rains?
On the California coast rain is generally not an all day affair, I’m usually able to adjust your session time based on weather predictions. A light drizzle or wind can be part of a beautiful experience and images!
What if I’m scared of heights but want to do an adventure session?
Not a problem! I just ask you to make me aware ahead of time so I can plan locations in the redwoods or on the beach.
Where should we eat?
I have a local food guide here.
How much are your sessions?
You can find all session info here.
What should I wear?
I will send you a style guide as soon as your deposit and contract are signed!
What is the best time to shoot?
I love golden hour into blue hour on the coast. This is generally an hour before sunset but if we’re shooting in the forest or you are willing to wake up for a sunrise session these times change! I really try to avoid shooting in mid day light.
Are you LBGTQ friendly?
Love is Love! I absolutely love capturing love in all shapes, sizes and colors!
Do you do formal family photos?
Yes! Although my work is centered around emotion and moments I do take traditional family photos during your wedding and elopement. Keep in mind if your focus is on everyone smiling at the camera most of your day, we are probably not a good fit.
Do you shoot on dual card cameras?
Yes of course! I shoot on two memory cards at once so the chance of loosing images is very small. I shoot on two nikon z6ii.
