Our baby girl at 5 weeks! I know I’ve been a bad blogger lately, but with Ellie I jumped right back into work shooting my first wedding just 2.5 weeks after giving birth and so this time around I’m allowing myself some time to really enjoy this newborn phase as it goes by in the...

Ellie as Dorothy
She had never seen The Wizard of Oz, but she fell in love with the little fuzzy dog in a basket when we were out shopping for a potential Halloween costume for Ellie. From there we found her a wig that she adored in the store and a costume was born. I didn’t really like...
A Lazy Weekend with Your Love : Jen and Rodney’s Couples Boudoir
I’ve always wanted to shoot a couples boudoir session, but not in the traditional overtly sexy way. I liked the idea of shooting something cozy and intimate, like the perfect lazy weekend afternoon spent in bed with your love. Now doesn’t that sound romantic? I love shooting these two so so much. The love that...
Tracy and Jeff’s San Juan Capistrano Engagement
Tracy and Jeff are good friends with one of my past couples (Jennifer & Anthony) whom I absolutely adore, so it was no surprise that we hit it off as well. I was a bit worried about our engagement session as we had some horrendous rain leading up to the day and Tracy and Jeff...
Sherri & Patrick’s Day After Session at LA Arboretum
I know I’ve been a bad blogger lately, but I’ve been so busy. Doing what, you ask? Oh, you know, growing a baby in my belly (just 10 weeks to go!). I will whole heartedly admit that this pregnancy has been kicking my butt. Hard. I’ve been working like mad on all the weddings/albums/shoots/editing in...
Montira & Chat’s Santa Monica Engagement Session
You probably recognize this beautiful couple since I recently posted their engagement session at Condor’s Nest Ranch. Prior to even seeing their images from their first session with me, they booked another and I’m so glad they did! Montira wore her wedding gown this time and looked so beautiful. I was a little worried about...
Sophia & Aaron’s Silver Creek Valley Country Club Wedding
I hope you all are ready for some pretty! Sophia and Aaron’s wedding was a day filled with much love and gorgeous details. So much so that I had a really, really difficult time culling through this wedding. I wanted to include it all! Jen and I traveled to the Bay Area for this wedding...
Montira & Chat’s Condor’s Nest Ranch Engagement Session
I just got back from shooting Montira and Chat’s second engagement session and figured now would be a good time to show you all their first one. Montira and Chat wanted something a little out of the ordinary for their location and so we ended up at the beautiful Condor’s Nest Ranch in Pala, California....
Rhysa & Andy’s Wedding at The Langham
There was so much from Rhysa and Andy’s wedding at The Langham Resort in Pasadena that I loved capturing. The details were to die for, Andy shed tears at their first look, Rhysa teared up during the ceremony, both families were just so happy for the new couple, and did I mention the to die...
Orange County Family Photography : The Machikawa’s
I adore photographing new families. I love seeing parents’ eyes light up at their little ones and witnessing how inquisitive babies are over new surroundings. Babies grow and learn so quickly that I’ve already forgotten what it’s like to have a baby who puts everything in her mouth. Or a baby who can’t yet walk,...
