On a warm day in June, Emma and James met me just outside of San Francisco, picked me up in a little red mustang, and we spent the afternoon taking their engagements on this tiny stretch of the California coastline.

For their wedding day, Julie and Michael rented a home in the hills of Calabasas. They filled the backyard with pretty florals, their favorite people, and at least a few gallons of aperol spritzes and threw one of my favorite intimate weddings of all time.

This summer, I had the privilege of getting to photograph a wedding for two of my favorite people in the world. Sam and Dylan held the most beautiful, intimate wedding at Our Place, an AirBNB on the Oregon coast. They filled the house with their closest family and friends, got married overlooking the ocean, and sang karaoke as the sun went down — a picture perfect day.

Gianna and Wyatt held a camp wedding out in the Wind River Mountains of Wyoming, deep out in the field of his father’s ranch. They invited their friends and family to bring their tents and camper vans and spend a whole weekend with them, and this is how it went.

For their engagement session, Mary and Mitch decided to spend an afternoon together at the Washington coast, something a little different from the Arizona desert they used to call home.
