There’s something infinitesimally calming about the rush of the wind over the vast expanse of flowing green grass—the chill of the breeze on your cheeks and the beauty of nature around you. Add the sweet love of James and Kari into that moment and you have nothing short of perfection. It makes me so happy […]

There’s something about the quiet expanse of the open desert that offers such soul-curing peace. It’s not the flurry of a forest with all the sounds and motion of bugs, trees, wind, squirrels, and trees stretching swaying, and leaning their limbs, with the birds diving, and the deer and rabbits leaping. The desert is different, […]

Rachel’s thick curls rustled in the wind as the last drops from the rainstorm ran off the trees overhead. The birds tentatively emerged from their hiding spots to greet the sunshine with their little chirps in the fading hour of daylight moments before the sun dipped behind the horizon. Together Jeff and Rachel walked down […]

The peace and serenity of expansive gardens always make me feel such a calm. As I walk through the leaves heal to toe softly treading as soundlessly as possible through the peace of curated nature.

This week was HOT, but I still had so much fun with Zach and Kiana at the Los Angeles Arboretum. You two are just so adorable with your comfortable love, your inside jokes, and all your giggles. I can tell you are best friends and so meant to be together. Enjoy a few of my […]

Sunday afternoon was such a lovely time. The gorgeous broody storm clouds, the historic Berry College old campus, and the oh-so-sweet love of Haley & Ethan! Some days are just filled with those sweet moments those cute glances, and all the love. It was so cute to see all Ethan’s sweet little glances into Haley’s […]

When your eyes meet and hold each other, those long seconds stretch into hours as the world around you disappears until suddenly you feel an intense jolt of electric sparks flow through your whole body. When it happens it’s so unexpected and so warm and so real the emotion is palpable and leaves you dizzy […]

I met Brent at a bridal expo a few weeks ago and made an instant connection. First, any guy willing to go to a bridal show with his woman loves her a lot (usually it’s the brides and their moms there). Second, he is just a fun and well-rounded guy with enough interesting stories to […]
