This one is personal (although, to be fair, all my clients feel personal), Craig is my youngest cousin and I have known him his entire life, so it was a huge privilege to be able to photograph his big day with Bethie surrounded by our family and friends. I trust you two are having an killer time in New Zealand and I can’t wait to see what your future brings!

I knew when I first met Milan and Olga that their wedding would be one big party. After all, both the Indians and Russians are known to celebrate marriage unions over several days!
Here in California, Milan and Olga held a beautiful backyard wedding in Chatsworth that went on for two days, boasting a party quotient that could have easily rivalled any multi-day ethnic wedding!
Thanks Aishia for helping me out with this one!

Wayfarers Chapel began as a dream in the 1920s, for a small and exquisite chapel to provide a meditative and spiritual shelter for wayfarers to rest on a hillside above the Pacific Ocean. How fitting is it that these days, it also fulfils the dreams of so many couples.
Greg and Anna wed in an intimate backyard reception, surrounded only by their closest of family and friends. It was a beautiful ceremony.
Congratulations, both!

I could almost have forgotten I was back at work last weekend, when Jamie and David held their wedding at the beautiful Stonewall Ranch Malibu. You’d have read in my earlier post that they’re a rare car-free couple in L.A. Upping their cool factor, I learnt that they met all the way in Ghana while on study abroad 12 years ago! The stars have really aligned for this lovely couple.
Congratulations, Jamie and David, and thanks for making my first post-vacay photography session such a great one!

Benita and Derek found a lovely venue right in the heart of West Hollywood — tucked just minutes away from the famed Sunset Strip — for an intimate wedding celebrated with the closest of family and friends.
What did that mean? We got the best of both worlds — energetic city AND verdant landscapes.
Congratulations, Benita and Derek!

Two years after we first discussed their wedding, JoBeth and Kevin proved that time does nothing to dilute unadulterated joy. If anything, it only intensifies the pleasure of reunion!
We had Phoebe — JoBeth and Kevin’s newborn daughter — join us at their beautiful oceanfront wedding at the Sea Cliff Garden Inn. Blessed with gorgeous weather and blue skies, we HAD to take a couple of snaps in the scenic forest surrounding the inn.
I hear that there’s breathtaking nature — lakes, rainforests, beaches — anything from 20 minutes to 2 hours away from the inn. If anyone is venue shopping, this is one to shortlist!
Congratulations, JoBeth and Kevin!

Amanda + Sami had one of the biggest wedding days of my season at Eden Gardens! Their Persian celebration was complete with SO MUCH DANCING, singing, laughing and then more dancing that my feet where grumbling at the end of the day; but SO worth it!
Congrats you both!

It took two extra years because of multiple waves covid, but on the third try we finally found a date for Brittany + Alex to celebrate their wedding! They were joined by all their family and even their 4 month old son, Evander! I couldn’t have asked for better people to nerd out with about comics and Dungeons+Dragons! Congrats to you both!

June was one of the busiest wedding months I’ve ever had, so needless to say I’m behind on the blogging and have lots of new stuff to post! Starting off with Cameron + Alexa at the Lorimar Vineyard in Temecula, California. It was an absolutely stunning day and I can’t say enough about how these two charmed me. Congrats and I hope the move to San Francisco went smoothly!

You can never go wrong getting married at Westland Distillery and then heading onto the Kraken Ice Rink for wedding photos, right? Obviously Brent + Elizabeth are badass human and I was thrilled to celebrate tier wedding with them! Can’t wait to see what life brings you both!
