San Juan Capistrano Photographer
Well if those faces don’t make your day, I don’t know what will! Look at those puppers and paw-rents. I seriously love any photo session with dogs included and had so much fun photographing Kim and Victor with their dogs. We met up in San Juan at Los Rios St for some fun photos including wine, whiskey, and later on tequila shots! Talk about a fun crew & day!!
I’m such a fan of engagement session that are 10 minutes from my house AND combine my former part time job with my current full time job. Cassy and Ethan are SO FUN and SO SWEET!! They were totally down to shoot in the rain if it did rain, but thankfully it stayed clear for our entire shoot. Sure the clouds were gray, but this shoot turned out MAGICAL!!! The light was perfect since there were tons of clouds and they were just SO IN LOVE!!! I barely had to direct them, which is my absolute favorite. I turned on some tunes and let them dance, play, and cuddle up as much as they wanted! After wandering Los Rios St and Northwest Open Space, we needed an afternoon snack and In N Out was on their list of shoot locations, so it only made sense! Enjoy!!!
Sam and Tanner are one of the sweetest couples who were referred to me by our mutual friend Brady Cramm. Turns out we have a lot more mutual friends including Sam's brother Evan and Tanner's friend Nate. Tanner and I also attended APU together, but we weren't the same major, so we didn't have classes together and our paths really didn't cross at all. It was such an honor to have my friend and associate photographer, Carsten Tice cover this wedding for me. Sam + Tanner's wedding was so beautiful, which you'll see very soon! They shared in some special moments including prayer time with their family + wedding party as well as communion with their family during the ceremony.
It's not every day a childhood friend reaches out and asks you to photograph their wedding. I was beyond thrilled when Kaelie reached out, especially since we haven't seen each other since middle school. She and Chase met in Nashville and she somehow managed to get him out to California haha! They are so sweet and so perfect for one another! I really enjoyed walking around Los Rios street with them while Chase goofed off and Kaelie modeled away. We even grabbed their favorite coffee and my favorite chai from Hidden House after the shoot. Enjoy!
I love this family, The Adams - Mike, Pam, Nick, Mandy and Mike! I grew up going to Coasts Hills Church with them. Nick and I also went to APU together. I was so excited when Mandy reached out wanting to gift a family session to her parents. They gained inspiration from family friends, The Bates who I also photographed in black and blue. We shot in San Juan Capistrano and had such a blast laughing and joking around!
Capture real, raw moments.
