With only three days before their Highlands Inn wedding, I met up with Noel and Marin for a quick engagement photography session in Felton. We started at Covered Bridge Park – I just love the tall, barn-ey feel of this miniature wooden palace. After half an hour or so there we drove over to Henry […]

The neatest thing I can think about Chris and Frances is how they met. Their priest told the wonderful story during the ceremony, but the gist of it is this: they grew up as neighbors, but never really met or interacted. They’re both really involved with their church and community, and they didn’t truly meet […]

I have an affinity for black hot rods (since I own one), so when Joe rolled up for his and Christine’s engagement session in his black corvette, I knew we’d get along just fine. We had a great time exploring the Los Gatos mountains around Belgatos Park, chasing the sun up the hill before it […]

This was my first wedding at Seascape Golf Club in Aptos, and I have to say it is a really fun venue – especially with a fun couple like Mya and Chase. Their little one tried to steal the show with all her cuteness, I just love photographing kids at weddings and she was no […]

Meghan and John are big into the outdoors – hiking, camping, whatever. If it’s under the roof of the sky, they’re down with it. We started out our friendship with a smokin’ hot engagement session in Santa Cruz. We started out with a “lost hiker” theme which somehow turned into a bikini/shorts-clad Baywatch I’m-gonna-rescue-you-from-that-shark type of […]

The first time I got to really hang out with Ben and Monica was during their Moss Beach engagement shoot at Fitzgerald Marine Reserve. I pretty much make it a requirement these days for many reasons, but most of all I just like to get to know couples a little better before spending the biggest […]

Gilda and Tony are a fun, loving couple that I really enjoyed getting to know and photographing. When we shot the engagement session at 3-mile beach, the first thing I noticed was the height difference between the two. This opened up opportunities for creative compositions that I usually can’t try, which is fun. I love […]

Our first photographic encounter was at Central Park in Santa Clara for Jenn and Jacob’s sexy engagement session (bat and balls included). I had so much fun with this couple I knew their wedding was going to be one to remember. Fresh into my September weddings, I was in top form for this loving couple. […]

I’m good friends with Jennie, we love to meet up for tacos and margaritas at Olita’s on the wharf. When she suggested we do a big shoot with her siblings and their kids, I was happy to take on the big group and see what I could capture. All the kids were fantastic, took direction […]
