If you’ve ever been to Uvas Canyon County Park, you know just how far off the beaten path it is. While technically in Morgan Hill, it’s at least 40 minutes from that town. But man it is totally worth the drive! I met Lilly and Chris at the state park on the first sunny day […]

We had so much fun with our first engagement shoot at Panther Beach we decided to do it AGAIN! Ok, so most brides that hire me are usually content with just one engagement session before their big day, but Samantha says she never gets photos of the two of them – and of course I’m […]

Angela and Josiah’s wedding is coming up next month so we figured we should get that engagement shoot taken care of straight quick. We met at the Palace of Fine Arts up in San Francisco as they’re both fans of architecture – I’m usually there in the evening but it was really fun to explore […]

Even though it appeared to be an overcast, dreary day in Capitola, Amy and Elliott turned up the heat for their engagement session in downtown Capitola. They rode their cruisers, posed in front of the mural, cuddled on private property (oops!), trespassed on the train tracks (double oops!), and of course traversed all around the […]

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 […]

What an enjoyable engagement session at Three Mile Beach (3 miles north of Santa Cruz) – Katie and Wesley are getting married in October and after meeting them I truly can’t wait. They’ve got chemistry, love, and everything in between. I’m so glad I met Katie’s sister Hollie during our portrait shoot last year. See […]

WARNING: This post has LOTS of big photos!! What can I say, Jared and Jasmine are an Attractive Couple (see: capitalization) that knows good photography when they see it. They reviewed my work online and booked me for their upcoming wedding without even meeting me first. I could’ve been some psychopath that also happened to […]

Even though I’m a Santa Cruz-based wedding photographer, I’m often traveling all over the Bay Area for my clients. Danny and Rachelle wanted their engagement shoot up in San Francisco, so I was excited to oblige. It was my first session at Stow Lake, which is part of the expansive Golden Gate Park. I got […]

Shannon and Greg are a fun, easygoing couple who aren’t afraid to roll with my crazy ideas. They wanted to have an engagement shoot at a beach in Santa Cruz, so after looking through some recent e-sessions I’ve done around the area, they settled on 3-Mile Beach. It’s a couple miles out of town, a […]
