I've spent 15 years working with California couples to help them have the most amazing wedding day of their dreams- and to relive each amazing moment through candid photos that capture the joy and love of their day.
My couples say I’m quick to respond, endlessly helpful, and a peaceful presence in the middle of a big, emotional day. I’ll guide you with gentle direction, keep the timeline flowing, and celebrate right alongside you—so you can let go and just take it all in.
Genuine moments, real emotion, and beautiful light.

Make sure you stay
The second you slip into your gown and see yourself glowing in the mirror. That emotional father-daughter first look. The way your partner looks at you when you aren’t watching. A quiet golden hour escape, just the two of you, dancing through the vines. Storytelling is the core of what I do.

what
Animals, fashion, travel, and interior design. Give me all the dogs! I obsess over french stationary, designer shoes, and Italian food. When I am not photographing a beautiful couple in love, you'll find me reading Jane Austen on the couch with my cats- or maybe surfing Pinterest for the latest wedding styles!
With over 500 weddings behind the lens, I bring a calm confidence that only comes with time, heart, and devotion to the craft.
I’ve learned from some of the most celebrated photographers in the world—artists who shaped my eye and elevated my standard. I am always growing, pushing myself to be the best I can be. My inspiration comes from my couples love for each other, their stories, and the idea that these images will be with them for the rest of their lives.
