Looking back on 2018, I feel so honored to have been a part of so many special celebrations. Thank you to all of my clients who trusted me to capture and witness such beautiful moments in their lives. I was able to photograph weddings at some new places and check them off of my bucket […]

Emily and James envisioned having an intimate ceremony with a small group of family, but that didn’t mean they couldn’t have a big celebration afterward! They exchanged their vows, complete with happy tears and lots of giggles, on the rooftop of The Pearl in San Francisco. Downstairs, they welcomed their guests with food, drinks and […]

The recent San Francisco Engagement Session with Emily and James was no exception. They are the sweetest couple, and Lands End was […]

“What are we going to do on our third date?” I’m sure this is a question many newly-dating couples think about. But for Lauren and Nathan, the answer was easy…thanks to me! In January 2015, I was visiting New Orleans with my best friend. One night, we were hanging out with our awesome Airbnb hosts […]
