Emilia + Jake, married at Marin County Civic Center on a warm Friday morning 🫶🏼

Last Friday I cruised out to one of my favorites to join Emilia and Jake for their short and sweet ceremony at Marin Civic Center along with their family and of course their pup, Toby!

Post ceremony we wandered around for some photos and talked about their plans to celebrate their marriage. It was the perfect morning and it was such an honor to document it all. A big cheers to these two and their new life ahead as husband and wife! More to come soon.

Reunited with Alicia + Landon 🫶🏼

Last year I photographed their wedding, this year I photographed them preparing to expand their family!

Last week I had the pleasure of linking back up and spending an evening with Alicia and Landon for their maternity session. We talked life after the wedding, navigating into parenthood, laughed, and walked around a small portion of the park. One of my favorite parts of this career is the continuous documentation of your stories. From pre wedding planning, to the wedding, to maternity photos, to family photos for years to follow. The connection and storyline feels so special and creating that for Alicia and Landon is such an honor 🥹

We had a blast catching up and I’m so stoked for them! More to come from this evening soon.

A whole 20 slides for the magic that was Saturday for Laetitia + Kevin 🫶🏼

Over the weekend we had the absolute HONOR of celebrating and documenting the love of Laetitia and Kevin’s wedding day.

The day begun in the hills of Martinez for a small, intimate ceremony surrounded by family and friends. Laetitia got ready in the pool house and Kevin at home with their cat, the said I Do on the lawn, and carried into some food before we made our way to Kevin’s parents house for an unforgettable party. After they shared their first dance, Laetitia danced with her dad, sweet words were shared by their friends and family, the light faded into the evening and the real party began. Drinks flowed, laughs rung out through the neighborhood, bubbles carried through the air, and they ended the day with a jump + a swim in the pool. The raddest end to a wedding day ever.

It was truly the perfect day for these two and I’m honored to have been apart of it. More to come soon!

In the studio with Megan + Drew 🫶🏼

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of having Megan and Drew stop by the studio for what was probably the chillest maternity session. Megan came to me with a vision of laid back and simple. We immediately caught the vibe quickly creating memories that’ll carry them into this new chapter in life. It’s always such a huge honor documenting these moments. Documenting the love, the excitement, the nerves. It’s such a beautiful thing 🥲

I’ve shot so much in the new space over the last couple of months that I’ve yet to share. I’ve taken so much time to learn the space, its light, its tones, its character and its beauty. Now that my office is also located inside of the studio, I spend nearly everyday in here still in disbelief that this place is real and mine. It’s wild.

If you’ve been thinking about a studio session, I’d love to have you!

Em + Jay married in a quaint, private air bnb right here at home in Benicia 🫶🏼

Last Saturday we all finally got to celebrate the love and marriage of Emily + Jay. They celebrated with their closest friends and family along with their kids, they married in the garden aside the old chapel building then followed with a party where all the fun was had.

I’ve gotten to know Em and Jay quite a bit over the last few years through my sister as well as many sessions and it’s been a blast. Having the honor to photograph a day so special to them and their family means the world. It was perfect in every way and exactly how it was meant for them.

Truly an incredible day and much more to come from it soon.

The in between moments of Erin + Ben’s special day at 🫶🏼

The intimacy of Erin and Ben’s day was something so special. It wasn’t a huge wedding, there wasn’t a hundred staff running around trying to setup tables and decor, there wasn’t worry of time or a ton of events that needed to be done. It was just them and their closest loved ones there to celebrate a marriage they’d all been waiting for. It was simply perfect 🥹

Last I shared of these two there wasn’t enough slides left available to share more and I’d figured I’ve waited long enough so here’s some more! This won’t be the last you see these two either I’m sure.

Reminiscing on last weekend for Andrea + Louis as we move into this rainy weekend ahead 🫶🏼

Easter Sunday looked a lot like this for me this year. I had the honor of spending the later afternoon with Andrea and Louis back at my favorite for their beautiful micro wedding. Family gathered from across the world, tears, laughter, and hugs continued throughout the day, Star Wars was honorably mentioned, and a celebration for their love was had. Nerves settled as the sun shined past the hills and it came to be the perfect day for the sweetest two.

Such an honor to document their day and continue returning to this stunning venue. A very special thank you to Andrea and Louis as well as a big cheers! More to come soon!

Elyssa + VJ married on a Friday morning ♡

A couple of weeks ago, to end a back to back wedding week, I had the honor of photographing the wedding of my friends VJ and Elyssa. They wanted simple and it was exactly that.

They got ready only a floor apart at a Berkeley BNB, they shared a first look and private vows in the front yard before making their way over to for their ceremony where they’d say I Do and have brunch. If they were going to have a wedding here at home, this was exactly how it was going to be. It was a brunch wedding with no stacked timeline of events, no pressure, no huge guest list. Just a ceremony, lawn games, waffles and all of the best breakfast foods, time with their closest peeps, and an early afternoon end time. It was simple, simply perfect.

A huge congrats once again to you my friends! More to come from these two soon 🥂

Last week at for Erin + Ben 🫶🏼

Last week I had the pleasure of returning to my favorite to document the wedding day of Erin and Ben. A micro wedding in the start of spring for the sweetest souls.

I first jumped on a call with Erin and Ben back in January to chat about their plans of coming out to California from the UK to make things official and become husband and wife! During our call we immediately clicked, a friendship started and I was overjoyed to document their day.

They spent the morning getting ready with their immediate family, held their ceremony under the tree surrounded by those closest to them along with some beautiful floral, they spent time with their families during cocktail hour then walked around through the pasture for some photos, to ending the night in the dining room for dinner, toasts, and some cake. It was perfect.

I have so much more to share from this day as 20 slides just simply wasn’t enough. More to come from these two very soon!

A warm Sunday evening with Alora + Landon 🫶🏼

Sunday evening I had the pleasure of spending some time with Alora and Landon for their engagement session. As we explored, we talked about their wedding day, they chased each other around, and learned more about one another. Upon officially meeting them, I could immediately see the fun love they share making documenting it so seamless and natural. We had such a good time and I can already tell that their wedding day is going to be even more fun! Cannot wait to celebrate these two!

I’m prepping my bags to head out to wedding 1 of 2 for this week. I’ve got back to back wedding days today and tomorrow then Marisa and I are headed out for the weekend to celebrate our 6 year anniversary. Be back Monday! 🤍
