        What a beautiful day with Brooke & Nathan at the Old Point Loma Lighthouse! We explored the cliffs at the bottom which overlook the Point Loma tidepools and the Pacific Ocean. Then we made our way up to the lighthouse where the rain lightly sprinkled. I always love a bit of […]

       It was a real privilege to photograph Kellyn & Taylor’s engagement session!

       This Mount Helix Engagement Session was so much fun! Justin and Kelsey own a few restaurants in San Diego and they pride themselves in local, garden-fresh produce and a farm-to-table experience.

Richardson Thanksgiving I love spending a Richardson Thanksgiving in San Luis Obispo with my family. Ever since I was a little kid, my family and I would drive up Hwy 101 to spend time with our relatives throughout the year. Recently, a central coast Thanksgiving tradition has developed and it’s become my favorite holiday.   Every time the Richardsons […]

          In case you missed Part One of Ariana & Brayden’s amazing Yosemite National Park Engagement Session, take a look here!        We made the decent down to the valley floor, approximately 3,214 feet from the amazing views from Glacier Point. There’s simply no where quite like this place. The towering Sequoias, arching waterfalls, glassy Merced River parading through the valley […]
