Elizabeth + Kevin's Engagement Session

Upon meeting both Elizabeth and Kevin, I knew right away that I wanted to work with them on their wedding day. They are a super sweet couple and really down to earth fun peeps! When asked if they had a particular theme for their wedding their reply was" Hillbilly Chic". A big smile came across my face..SWEET. I can't wait until their wedding in October!!

We headed over to Santa Cruz for their engagement session-I had such a great time- they were up for anything and they did an amazing job...just being them! Enjoy!

Sheep Farm- Garden Cheese Variety

Rebecca King of Garden Variety Cheese Brand so graciously gave my husband and I a tour of her 40- acre- sheep farm last week. So STOKED.. cuz I LOVE farms.

The farm lies in a canyon in Royal Oaks and is an amazing place. Formerly, the property was used to produce strawberries. However, now it is home to over 140 sheep that openly graze on about 17 acres of newly planted land. The organic sheep’s milk help produce unique cheese varieties. Using European techniques Rebecca produces all handmade artisanal sheep cheeses and they are awesome! I had an opportunity to try both the Black Eyed Susan and Moon Flower and they are delicious! You can purchase her cheese at Santa Cruz Farmer’s Market Downtown on Wednesday and Saturday you can find her cheese at the West Side Farmer’s Market (Mission+Western).
