Kimberly + Bryan (Engagement Photography)

Wow. What a smokin’ session. It didn’t matter that it was raining, cold and windy – Kim & Bryan heated up the west coast and I had a blast capturing their sweet interactions. We met at Lighthouse field, which was a new location for me, although I’ve driven past it a thousand times. Then after […]

Jason and Kelley (Engagement)

I got to try out a new photo location when Jason and Kelley showed me “3 Mile” near their house. It’s 3 miles from downtown Santa Cruz, hence the oh-so-clever name.

Hollie + James + (Family) Dog

Hollie and James have been married a couple years, and they just had their first baby. OK, so it’s a large puppy (Sheldon) – but everyone works at their own pace 🙂 They live in Felton, and are active outdoorspeople, so they wanted to go to a special place in the woods. It ended up […]

Rocio, Sebastian and Aiden (Family Portraits)

Rocio, Sebastian and 18mo Aiden are residents of Capitola, so it made sense to get some professional family portraits done near their home.

We were able to shoot for an hour at Natural Bridges beach in Santa Cruz before their littlest one started melting down. It was a challenging shoot, as most involving toddlers tend […]

Gaurav + Isha (Engagement)

I met Gaurav through my Yelp profile, he originally wanted me to take photos of his actual proposal. I was thinking, cool, I will finally be hired to to Schmauch-arazzi work! But alas, plans changed – I guess the pressure was too great. However, his fiancee said “yes” this morning so I made my way […]

Jennifer & Leon (Engagement)

After one postponement due to the rain, I was determined to make today’s engagement shoot with Leon and Jennifer happen. The weather was iffy in Carmel according to the interweb, but we met up at 4pm anyways at Carmel Beach (Carmel-by-the-Sea). It’s a gorgeous, beautiful, stunning location – and the quality of light was simply […]
