… and Laura & Jonathan are style’s epitome.

Throw in love and it’s irresistible.

The handsome one…

The sassy one…

Elegance and simplicity…

It was a family affair.

Man’s best friend was there for Jonathan.

Theirs is a match made in heaven.

Love was in the air.

The night was just stunning.

The first Piñata wedding cake I’d ever seen. Pretty fun. Laura killed it.

Gorgeous!

Bless you two. What a treat to be a part. Huge shout out to Josh and Emily for carrying the weight of the day and letting me coast in for the good stuff.

My favorite are couple’s that make their day theirs!

That was certainly the case for Liz and Malcolm. After feeling stress about their state-side wedding plans, they made their day their own by eloping in Maui. Because I was already booked, my good friend David Hessemer took care of them in Hawaii and I got to celebrate in Healdsberg, near Napa, California to shoot their reception.

The day felt just like a wedding day but with NO stress. It was all family and fun!

There’s just something about Italian’s that make life more enjoyable.

These two are so hot!

Vineyard’s in the Fall/Winter in Napa are gorgeous!

These two made the fields come alive even more!

Getting ready for some fun.

One quick pit stop though…

Good times!

Congrats you two. I’m blessed to know you and be in your lives!

Weddings in Santa Barbara are some of my favorite. Whether destination or not, the combination of history, aesthetic and individuality bring a unique style to every event.

Janelle and Brett were no exception.

Color and light… and love were what marked this day.

Brett was just a little excited.

I loved how all these two wanted to do was go find each other.

They just love being together.

Epic space.

Epic people.

Epic style.

Bless you guys.

I know by utilizing the things I have learned from this workshop alone I will be able to take my business to a level that I have only previously dreamed of. There was information and experiences that beginning and seasoned photographers both would benefit greatly from. There was also a synergy that was generated by the other workshop attendees that created a community of support and inspiration. I highly recommend this workshop above anything else you could attend to give yourself the momentum you need to succeed!” – Carol C.
