Surrounded by the rugged boulders and golden afternoon light, Cassie and Nick are stepping into their greatest adventure yet. There is something truly special about watching a couple start a family of their own, and capturing this chapter against the raw, beautiful backdrop of nature makes it all the more magical.

So incredibly happy for you both as you get ready to welcome your little one!

Under a relentless 109 degree sun out in the Indio desert, we braved the heat to witness something even more radiant. Every beautiful journey has its own timing, but finding true, deep-rooted happiness later in life and finally discovering what it means to be truly known, cherished, and anchored is a quiet miracle. It is living proof of a love that was always worth the wait.

"He has made everything beautiful in its time." - Ecclesiastes 3:11

Chasing the last few minutes of golden hour with these two. When your couple effortlessly drops editorial-level poses right as the light hits perfection, magic happens. Absolutely obsessed with Malia & Tyler.

There’s so much beauty in tradition. At Tami & Yerachmiel’s wedding, capturing the Hakafot—the sacred Orthodox Jewish tradition where the bride circles her groom seven times under the chuppah was an absolute privilege.

There’s a quiet, powerful reverence in watching centuries of history, faith, and devotion unfold in a single moment. It was an honor to witness and document.

Sometimes it's all about the details and the story behind them. While I was busy photographing our bride Tami, my talent...

Sometimes it's all about the details and the story behind them. While I was busy photographing our bride Tami, my talented associate Christine was off capturing magic with the details.

This ring belonged to Tami’s grandmother, perfectly cradled right between these stunning heels. The absolute best part of the day was showing Tami the test shot on the back of the camera and seeing her instantly tear up when she saw her grandmother’s ring displayed like.

Huge shout out to Christine for catching such a meaningful shot!

I'm obsessed with Kaelyn & Dylan's stunning wedding day!

We took a quick adventure off-site from their venue, the beautiful Wedgewood Weddings San Clemente Shore, and it was so worth it! Just minutes away, the dramatic, towering, and layered sandstone cliffs of Calafia Beach Park created this incredible, ancient, canyon-like atmosphere.

Going off-site totally elevated the aesthetic of their gallery, making their intimate moment feel grand and timeless against these amazing textures.

I've been on a bit of a hiatus, but I'm officially back and my editing queue is overflowing with so many amazing shoots that I can't wait to share with you all.

First up, this absolutely magical maternity session with Elizabeth and Richard. The light, the love, the energy. Everything about this day was pure perfection!

Stay tuned because there is so much more beauty coming to your feeds in the days to come!

They say your groomsmen are there to support you, but Ariel’s crew took that literally! Ha!! A bad back isn’t going to stop this man from walking down the aisle, even if it takes a three-man tug-of-war to get him there. This is what family and friendship look like in the trenches!

I remember these quiet moments pretty vividly as this was the true calm before the "I do."

Spending these final peaceful minutes with Kat before she stepped into that dress was a highlight of my career.

You see, Kat is family. Watching her take it all in, surrounded by the scent of orchids and so much love, made this particular wedding extra special to capture.

I remember looking at her and thinking to myself, "You’re going to be the most breathtaking bride. Now, let’s get you married!"
