Engagement Session with Lisa + Josh

I recently had the opportunity to work with Lisa and Josh on their engagement session at Wilder Ranch..The location is  special for Lisa... since she had spent a lot of time out there as a kid!. It was my first opportunity to meet them and i am super stoked because they are really  great and soooo in love! I am looking forward to working with them in August- they are getting married at the Seymour Marine Discovery Center

Santa Cruz Wedding - Private Residence

Ben + Marissa were married in Santa Cruz on June 14th. The couple decided to get married at Ben's Auntie's home located in Santa Cruz, since he has such fond memories from his childhood there. It was a special day- very low key and mellow.. my favorite!! Unbelievable really- since Ben was graduating from UCSC the same weekend he was getting married and then moving to Texas 3 days following the wedding with his new bride!! They were so great to work with we giggled most of the day together. They are so in love  and have so much respect for each other-it was a honor to be there! Here are some of my favs from the day.. enjoy!!

Santa Cruz Wedding

Portrait Session

I love working with children. Unpredicatable..sometimes- but always fun! Dahlia was no exception- she was great! It was a hot day.. but she handled it like a pro. She was never fussy even through her outfit changes and the heat! I just love her cheeks and her great smile. Mom really wore herself out.. she was singing songs and dancing around to get Dahlia laughing and smiling.. it really worked! Dahlia just lit up at the sound of her voice..it was so sweet! here are a few of my favorites from the shoot..enjoy!
