That beautiful time between “Yes” and “I do. ” Our favorite engagement sessions.
When we first met Sam and Maclay, we immediately knew were a pair of #TYDreamies – and it was confirmed with this absolutely stunning Newport Harbor engagement session. We adore the beginning of their love story. When they met by chance in 2019, Maclay...
Alex is an accountant that works remotely, and Kat's a freelance graphic designer... and they have spent the past five years or so (pre-pandemic) working remotely from all around the world. They settled for a month (or more!) at a time in hostels and hotels across...
On the day Kyle had planned to propose to his gorgeous girlfriend Kelsey, it was freezing, pouring rain, and the sky was full of dark clouds. But Kyle could not wait another day to propose. Overlooking a beautiful lake in Wisconsin where they had been visiting with...
When her life took a turn towards law school, there was a series of events that totally changed the trajectory of Kate’s life. The first was a move back to the west coast, and the second was being re-introduced to a special guy named Dave. She was a La Jolla born...
There is something particularly magical about medium format film, my friends. For Nikhil and Tracy’s already gorgeous engagement session at Crystal Cove State Park (see their first post here!), the film captures those ocean blues in its own dreamy-creamy...
It all began with a little bit of mystery. When they met in medical school, Tracy couldn’t quite figure out if Nikhil was just being a *super* nice guy, or if he had a thing for her. He’d make her feel extra special and taken care of - always bringing her coffee...
The giddy feeling in our hearts from Bob and Taylor’s engagement session is still going oh-so-strong! Jeff and I photographed these lovebirds at Hotel Del Coronado, where the property was glowing with that beautiful winter golden light that we love soooo very much....
Oh my oh my, this anniversary session is SO. GOOD! We love photographing our past couples, and when it’s on a nearly-empty Brooklyn Bridge? Jeff and I just about died of happiness! We photographed Brendan and Emily’s wedding six years ago, and it was SO MUCH FUN...
There’s something about the way Lucas and Anna love each other that’s simply different than anything they’ve ever experienced. It’s much deeper than a friendship, though theirs is unbreakable. It goes beyond the love language of affection they both speak (and...
With all the far-away places that life takes Dan and Jen, HOME is the most sacred place. Tons of time and elbow-grease have gone into making their home the perfect haven… and they could spend hours content at home with a charcuterie board, two glasses of wine, and...
As the sun made its way to the horizon and covered Chris and Sarah in warm, golden light… it also covered them in an overwhelming assurance of grace. That peaceful, oh-so-beautiful moment served as a reminder of all they’d walked through in the last year: more...
Every minute of their oh-so-long flight, Greg and Courtney were giddy with all the adventure that awaited them in Paris: crêpes and wine and patisseries and touring all the iconic landmarks in the city of love. But Greg had one specific moment rolling over and over...
