I’ve said it beefore and I’ll say it again. Maravilla Gardens is one of my favorite places to photograph weddings. It’s just magical. And every couple that I get the chance to photograph there are just the best! Molly & Ben are no different. They met at Dartmouth and live in Massachusetts, so the first […]

From the moment I saw Sonia at her friend Palak’s wedding, I thought, “I want to photograph that girl!” So you can imagine my joy when, many years later, she asked me to photograph her wedding. But I had no idea just how epic it would be! Often at Indian weddings, the groom rides in […]

The flowers. Her dress. The day was full of so many beautiful details. But the ones that stand out the most to me have nothing to do with anything that can be bought. The look on her dad’s face when he saw his little girl as a bride. The tears she shed as she saw […]

Amy & Amir are such a sweet couple. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a guy dote on his love as much as Amir does with Amy. His words of love and affirmation leave no question; he loves her with all of his heart. His reaction to seeing his bride for the first time […]

They were high on the cliffs overlooking the ocean, with Point Vicente Lighthouse in the background, when he popped the […]

Annie and Bryant met at UC Irvine. Bryant’s path would lead him back to his hometown, in the Bay Area. Annie would eventually follow. But when Bryant decided to go back to school, their journey together led them back to Southern California, Annie’s home. Since they met in college, and since grad school at USC […]

I love coming up with locations for engagement sessions. It usually involves a series of emails back and forth with the couple. I ask, “What do you like to do together? Where do you like to go?” Well for Paige & Don, the answer was The OC Mix Mart. If you’ve never been there, and […]

This wedding. This is why I do weddings. These two. They are why I have the best job ever. I get to work with some of the greatest people on such an important day in their lives, and when they are like Kanan and Sean, we are guranteed to have a blast! I had never […]
