Abigail & Chris | One Year Anniversary | San Francisco Photography
This is one of my favorite collaborations I have ever been a part of. When Abigail, editor of Wedding Row California, came upon her one year wedding anniversary with her husband Chris, we helped them to celebrate in style. It was such a pleasure to photograph the happy couple and to work with our entire…

Ojai | California Coasting, Part 6
Prior to my visit, the best I could gather about Ojai was that it was a small town with a lot of farm land, and that people also like to go there for high end spas and relaxation. Both of those things seem to hold true. Ojai also happens to be where the Gardner family…

Solvang & Santa Barbara | California Coasting, Part 5
Solvang. It’s a little Danish town in California somewhere between San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara. This was my fourth stop on day two of my solo road trip. There are plenty of bakeries and windmills to go around, and the town also got a little feature in the movie Sideways. I also happened to…

San Luis Obispo & Mission La Purisima | California Coasting, Part 4
On day two of my California Coasting road trip, I awoke to the coast blanketed in fog. My first stop was Montaña De Oro Park which is often noted for its sand dunes and tide pools, but unable to find any trail maps and not having much time, I really just stopped by, said hello…

San Simeon | California Coasting, Part 3
Elephant seals, black angus cattle, and beautiful horses. I had no idea my road trip would quickly turn into a menagerie of interesting animals. After checking in to my room in Cambria, I drove, windows down, back up highway 1 to pay another visit to the Pacific Ocean. As trite and car-commercial-like as it may be,…

Anny & John | Thomas Fogarty Winery | Woodside, California Wedding Photography
Anny and John first met at a summer camp, when she was just about to start as a freshman at UC Berkeley and he was a senior at Cal. They soon became good friends with a bit of a crush, but it took quite a bit of luck, determination, and quite a bit of time…

Cambria | California Coasting, Part 2
Part of the joy of not doing too much research before a trip is the pleasant surprise of experiencing a town like Cambria for yourself. It was charming to say the least. I rushed over from Hearst Castle because I wanted to make it to the Tea Cozy before it closed at four. When I arrived all…

Hearst Castle & Piedras Blancas | California Coasting, Part 1
How do I convey the magic of getting in a car and simply driving down the California coast– on a Tuesday morning, all by myself, no less? Nothing in particular prompted this trip, other than my love for travel and a well-timed week with no other obligations. But of course, I am no stranger to…

Propel | Maternity Boudoir Photography
Following my previous post with the announcement of my new boudoir photography line, I wanted to show a bit more from a maternity boudoir session I shot at Caroline Tran’s Propel workshop. I’ll post more soon about the workshop itself and some of the other shoots we did, but for now, enjoy some of my favorites of…
