Denny and Luce currently live on the mountain and since I’m a mountain girl through and through, they didn’t have to do much convincing to get me to agree to this San Moritz Lodge Engagement in Lake Gregory! They bring their puppy here often so it became a special spot. We started out at San […]

This spring Juniper Point Big Bear engagement is something special…because it’s not actually an engagement at all! I met these two at Cynthia’s sister’s Redlands wedding over two years ago.

Heather and Jessyka had me dying of laughter during their Oak Glen Preserve fall engagement! Jessyka tracked me down once the wedding planning got underway and Heather reached out to see if I remembered her. For some reason, we had all just thought these two were already married so I was so excited when they […]
