Two years ago today, I had the absolute joy of photographing Kaitlyn and Kyle’s wedding at the beautiful Brigalias. What a day it was! From the moment Kaitlyn stepped out in her sparkly, floral dress to the surprise first dance with her mom, it was a celebration packed with heartfelt moments, hilarious memories, and some seriously epic dance moves. Having known Kaitlyn’s family for nearly 30 years, it truly felt like I was part of the celebration, which made it all the more special.

The day was filled with love, and the way these two lit up together is something I’ll never forget. It’s been such an honor to capture their story, and I can’t wait to see what the next year brings for them.

Here’s to a lifetime of belly laughs, spontaneous adventures, and unforgettable memories! Happy Anniversary, you two! 🥳

Happy wedding celebration anniversary! These two got married under this majestic oak back in 2020 surrounded by the magic landscapes of Paicines Ranch. We went back out to the oak under the night skies next to that ancient valley oak and they had a blast dancing in their wedding costumes.

Wishing you two amazing humans the happiest celebration of love, silliness, and bird costume magic for now and forever!

A little front yard bird nerd action from the past couple months.

This Costa’s hummingbird built her nest in late February, tucked into a branch right outside my house. She laid two tiny eggs, incubated them for a few weeks, and then spent the next few weeks feeding and raising the chicks completely on her own.

Both chicks made it. One fledged a few days ago, and the second followed a couple days later. You can probably guess who fledged first based on the video.

Also, as is tradition, the male Costa’s hummingbird contributed absolutely nothing to this process except good looks and vibes. The female does all the work. Nest building, incubation, feeding, defense… the whole operation.

Costa’s are desert specialists, timing their nesting with early blooms and insect availability, which makes sense when you watch how fast those chicks grow.

Anyway, feeling pretty lucky to have had a front row seat to all of this right outside my door.

Five years ago, after many delays and so much anticipation, Jessica & Robert finally got to say “I do” at the beautiful Paicines Ranch. Their wedding was a celebration not just of their love, but of patience, resilience, and the joy of finally getting to gather with loved ones after the chaos of 2020.

Time has flown since that incredible day, and their love story just keeps getting better. Happy 5th Anniversary, Jessica & Robert! Wishing you many more years of love, laughter, and adventure. 🥂

Two Years ago, Carly and Sean said “I do” in the most beautiful way—surrounded by love, laughter, and the stunning desert landscape. From their intimate moments to their infectious joy (and, of course, that unforgettable decorated VW bug), their wedding was a perfect reflection of their adventurous and fun-loving spirits.
Happy Second Anniversary, Carly and Sean! Here’s to many more years of laughter, adventure, and beautiful memories.

Three years already?! Happy anniversary to Kayla and Robert!
Your cruise wedding was such a blast — still one of the most fun and joy-filled days I’ve photographed. You two were glowing, the views were unreal, and your crew was the absolute best. Hope year three has been full of love, laughter, and maybe a frozen cocktail or two. 🛳️💙

Two years already?! Happy anniversary to Emma and Braden!

Your New Year’s Eve wedding at Paicines Ranch was such a beautiful way to close out the year. That first look in the Oak Forest still gets me, and the whole day was just so full of love and celebration.

It’s been awesome seeing your world grow since then. Here’s to year three and whatever adventures come next. 🥂
