Welcome to my blog! I’m a photographer based in Orange County, California. Wedding photography is what I specialize in but I love capturing ALL the special moments life has to offer! This blog serves as my online journal where I’ll post pictures from my most recent photo shoots, share my favorite “YouTube” videos, post adorable pictures of my dogs (yes, I’m one of “those” people), and talk about anything else I feel like! Take a look around…I hope you enjoy your time here!
I think this has to be my longest blog post ever! It took me the entire day to pick my favorites to blog because there were just sooo many that I loved! Amy and Frank (one of the the coolest couples ever) got married at my new favorite venue Strawberry Farms. Seriously…I LOVE this place! The grounds are beautiful, they have a barn (I have a “thing” for barns), and their on-site coordinator Heather Howery is awesome! She showed me all the cool spots to take pictures a couple of weeks ago and I couldn’t be more pleased!
I have been looking forward to Amy and Frank’s wedding ever since their engagement session! They live in Chicago but decided to get married here since Amy is originally from So-Cal. Amy found out about me through a friend of a friend and I’m so glad she did! Amy and Frank are two of the most coolest, easy going, care-free couples I’ve ever met. On top of that, they are just so sweet to each other..every time I would look over at them, they always had smiles on their faces and just looking totally in love..just how it should be!
Amy and Frank left no detail unturned which made me very happy! The beautiful flowers were provided by one of my favorite florists, Flower Allie Weddings. She always delivers so I was happy to hear that she was Amy’s florist! Their colors were pink and green which just so happens to be my favorite color combo EVER! The colors just really popped which made for some beautiful, vivid images.
Amy and Frank…I hope you’re enjoying each other in Malaysia! I had SUCH an amazing time sharing your wedding day with you and I’m so honored to have been your wedding photographer!



Love this shot of the bouquets…GORGEOUS!


Amy is so beautiful!

One of my most *FAVORITE* images I’ve ever taken!




I want one of her..(the little one that is!)






Frank said I had to tell him dirty jokes to get a smile out of him…gotta love him!




The view over Strawberry Farms is BREATHTAKING!

My Favorite from the day!






LOL…Amy’s dad had one of the best speeches ever!

See…in love..just as it should be!
