Pre-pandemic, we’d spend Thursday nights at Kelly’s playing trivia with John and Traci. It was the place where they’d had some of their first dates, making Kelly’s a meaningful chapter in their story. So when John reached out and told me he wanted to get the gang back together again and propose to Traci at […]

One of the things I love most about newborn photography is creating a session that feels completely personal to each family. Mia’s parents wanted to incorporate several meaningful themes into her session. These themes included Mary Poppins, a fairytale castle, soft lavender tones, and a touch of Star Wars. This session took place in our […]

Every newborn session comes with its own creative challenge ~ and Baby Luke’s session was easily one of the most ambitious builds I’ve ever done. When Luke’s parents asked if we could create an X-Wing–inspired setup for their newborn photos, I knew it had to feel epic, while still staying soft and lovable. So, I […]

I love portrait sessions at Disneyland before the sun rises. The park is quiet, the lights are still glowing, and seeing the park before guests come to enjoy their day is something I just can’t describe. Kaitlyn and Jathan’s Sleeping Beauty Castle portrait session took place after their wedding at the Disneyland Hotel. It was […]

I loved stepping outside of Orange County for Sydney and Gio’s Monterey Beach Station wedding. It was truly something special.

This newborn session at our Santa Ana studio was a sweet one. The family asked for a Cinderella and Snow White theme. I love it when we have princess themes! A new backdrop was used for our Cinderella carriage, and made sure to incorporate soft pinks and blues. I tried some new ideas for our […]

Chris and Dan’s Hawaiian-themed vow renewal at Disney’s Grand Californian was a celebration we will never forget. It was meaningful to us on a personal level because Chris had recently gone through cancer treatment. I’m in remission and Andrew is undergoing cancer treatment, so we teased that they had the “C” team. The day was […]

Michelle and Jay’s Disneyland engagement session felt meant to be captured inside the park where so much of their relationship began. From their very first conversations to their careers, Disney has been woven into every chapter of their love story. Michelle swiped right on Tinder when she saw that Jay was a Jungle Cruise Skipper. […]

I love it when we grow alongside our families ~ and Harlow’s Alice in Wonderland cake smash was one of those moments that truly felt full circle. We’ve been photographing this family since the very beginning. We started with their engagement session at Disneyland, then welcomed their sweet girl with newborn photos, and recently photographed […]
