Renata & Andre

I just love it when I meet someone and we just click. The energy is being matched on both sides, the excitement is bubbling over and you just can’t wait to get started on helping them with their future. Renata found me on Instagram on Wednesday and by Friday, we were celebrating her and Andre’s marriage with a couple of their closest family and friends. Not every wedding celebration has to be a big blow out party - sometimes you’re just ready to get married and you don’t want to wait any longer. That was the case for these two after a 5 year long-distance relationship. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for these two.

Mrs. Brown's Floral and Event & Glen Ivy

There aren’t many people that can get me up at 4:30 in the morning, but Megan is one of them. When she came to me super last minute needing a behind-the-scenes photographer, there was never going to be an answer other than “I’m yours.” I’ve admired Glen Ivy from afar and was thrilled to be a small part of their video for Wedding Wire. A huge thank you to Megan and her company Mrs. Brown’s Floral & Events for trusting me to capture these photos!

Mr. & Mrs. Luna

October 9th, 2021 has come and gone and taken a piece of my heart with it. You see, I met Brittney when we were in high school. We showed horses on the Arabian circuit religiously every month and she was always one of my favorite people to talk to. As we got older and life got in the way of showing, we were able to keep in touch by the power of MySpace (did I just date myself there?).

Many, many years later, Brittney reached out to me shortly after I had opened my photography business and wanted me to be the one to capture her vet school announcement. Talk about an honor! Of course, seeing her and her mom at the shoot was like no time had passed and when she said “you’ll photograph my wedding one day!” I took it as a compliment, but didn’t put much stock in to it.

How wrong was I?! It was truly incredible to be the one to capture Brittney and Alex’s wedding day. It was nothing short of perfect at the most beautiful venue in Murrieta, Monteleone Meadows, and even had a flower/beer man instead of a flower girl! The single best thing I’ve seen at a wedding, ever, and I’ve been to plenty of them lol.

Here is a sneak peek of their wedding day!
