This spring engagement in Yucaipa is one of my top three favorite engagement sessions! Katie and I have been social media friends after many encounters at Starbucks and the gym. At the beginning of the year, she reached out to me about her upcoming May wedding at the The Retreat in Corona, Ca. We met […]

Meet Casey and Lucy and their desert engagement at Vasquez Rocks! I had found this spot on google last year for an anniversary session but we went a different route instead. When Lucy brought up having their desert engagement session there or the dunes (one day!), I jumped at it. Both of us were just […]

I loved this Pismo Beach proposal/Ocean Sand Dunes engagement! So fun story about these two, we hit it off so much during their wedding consult that they snuck back in minutes later to tell me they’d like me to be their photographer. It was pretty much the sweetest thing ever and I adore them. They […]

Blake is an old friend and just one of the greatest guys and I met Lexi the day of our Redlands summer engagement and of course immediately adored her. The only word I could think of to describe her personality and smile is effervescent. I could definitely see why Blake knew he would marry her […]

Lance and Linna came down from Portland for their spring Redlands engagement session! I had the weekend off for my birthday and Linna asked if they could squeeze in an engagement session. Antoine and I were headed directly to a Saint Patrick’s Day get together after. The timing worked out perfectly. We had been in […]

A magical January Redlands engagement session with Daniel and Sarah! This session is still near and dear to my heart. Sarah found me through her sister who had followed me for several years. When we met for the first time at the consultation she told me the story of how her and Daniel met. I […]

We ventured out on this Santa Monica Pier spring engagement.  The city and pier had sentimental meaning for these two because it was where Hector asked Araceli to be his girlfriend.  What we didn’t think of was that it was also Saint Patrick’s Day and that everyone else in California would want to be out […]

This rainy Redlands engagement proved to be an adventure! California got onboard with the whole idea of winter this year which meant many a rainy weekend!  Weddings…engagement sessions…almost all of them for the first several months of the year were either raining or overcast. I loved it and my AWESOME couples were pretty much down […]

For this Top of the World Laguna Beach engagement I can’t help but think about how incredible this year has been.  Each couple, each breathtaking location, and each photograph made has exceeded what were once my wildest dreams.  Now I know that it’s only the beginning of something that’s been a decade in the making. […]

This Thomas F Riley wilderness park Engagement was a two part, full day adventure that started at Victoria Beach and ended with a golden hour hike in the wilderness park. I have to be honest when I say that this is one of the most fun engagement sessions of all time!  You see, Taelor has […]
