A Brooklyn Boathouse Wedding | Kat + Ed
A Washington National Park Wedding | Laurel + Benton
A Cape Kiwanda Wedding | Tahnee + Samuel
A Cape Kiwanda Wedding. For years I have been madly in love with one specific spot on the Oregon Coast, Cape Kiwanda. Not to say there’s isn’t a a ton of magic all along the coast, but if you’re skipping out on Pacific City in favor of Canon Beach, you’re really missing out.
Tahnee & Samuel found my blog of Grayce & Tanner’s Styled elopement and planned their whole important day around something I put together years ago, which is pretty incredible. Once in a blue I get to feel a little more involved in the day and planning than a typical weekend. I think Tahnee and I shared more phone calls than any other client I’ve had to help build a day around that felt intimate but grand. This even included me drawing out a seating plan on a napkin in the morning.
A Bolinas Wedding | Sabrina + Tyler
A Bolinas Wedding. When Sabrina told me about her day, the highlights included a small wedding with 100 guests in a sleep beach town, her fiance was a photographer, their tagline for the day would be “best mothf***ing day ever", they’d be giving out mini joints at the end of the evening and most importantly, there’d be a dog. Their whole goal was a classy day then collided with their inherently weird selves. This meant skipping the worn out trend of kimono robes for bikini tee shirts & opting for shotgunning beers in the morning rather than relaxed glasses of whiskey. To cut to the chase, Sabrina & Tyler are badass New Yorkers who know exactly how cool they are and they didn’t hesitate to let that be their theme of their whole day.

An Oregon Camp Wedding | Sonya + Kevin
A New Mexico Wedding | Maverick + Steven
A New Mexico Wedding. With everyone rushing to the PNW (myself included) I think an untapped area of photo wonderland is New Mexico. From little towns in the middle of nowhere, venues that remind me of scenes from a Telenovelas and the desert just a hop and a skip away, NM can have me back anytime. We got so lucky and fall was spitting out golden oranges everywhere we looked around La Mesita Ranch, which contrasted the moments indoors with THAT DRESS that felt more like a renaissance painting than it did a moment from 2017.
A Barcelona Elopement | Kim + Zane
A San Fransisco Engagement | Whitney + Sid
A Diablo Lake Same Sex Elopement | Sean + Tom
An Iceland Red Sand Beach Elopement | Sherry + Johnny
A Rainforest Elopement | Kym + Adam
A Rainforest Elopement. Kym & Adam chose to spend the weekend with their friends and family in Mora Campgrounds camping both before and after their elopement. Even with the constant rain and the perpetual feeling of being wet, they were such troopers and didn't complain even one time. They were just so wonderfully elated to be having their day with all of their supporters nearby.

Ruby Beach Portraits | Grayce + Tanner
Ruby Beach Portraits. A few weeks back I Co-Hosted Over Yonder Washington on the coast along with Cody Harris, Stephen Ramsden, Twyla Jones, Grace Hurtienne, Michael Cardwell & Nicole Seligman of Junebug Weddings. Over Yonder is a hideaway for likeminded creatives seeking an intimate experience with other artists to awaken their connection to their work, their clients and their passions. We spent 4 days in a cabin with 19 other people from all over the globe sharing our insights, experiences, victories and defeats. But most importantly a piece of ourselves. Our final day on the coast had sudden downpours but it didn't stop anyone from running around, getting soaked and making moment and memories together.
Thanks to our amazing Over Yonder Sponsors

A Seattle In Home Session | Laura + Tim
A Seattle in home session. Laura & Tim are a photographer duo (really amazing at that, definitely check them out) newly moved to Seattle, getting settled into their ridiculously charming home in West Seattle. They're honesty the type of people when you meet them for the first time, they're so charming it feels like you could have known them for years. This session was not a long thought out or planned thing, but more on a whim and a neat setting to meet someone new too, and I don't think it could have gone anymore delightful.
An Irish Elopement | Verena + Marco
An Irish Elopement. The internet is a crazy place sometimes. Verena & Marco found us on instagram, and one skype call later plans were set to meet in Ireland. We went down to the Sugar Loaf just south of Dublin where we met a lovely man and his dog, a small path of ponies who wanted nothing to do with us, and a gorgeous Irish countryside to set the mood for the afternoon.
An Irish Wedding | Rhona + Cormac
An Irish Wedding. Our paths crossing with Rhona & Cormac couldn't have been more slim, but man oh man are we thankful. This was our very first European wedding and Rhona & Cormac we're absolutely the perfect people to spend that time with. They seemed to be just as excited to have a couple of Americans with funny accents hanging out with them as we were excited to hang out with them and their equally funny accents.
We got to spend two amazing days with their friends, families and the gorgeous coast of Western Ireland. Thanks so much for connecting with us and making it a freaking blast to jump abroad for your smashing day!
A Cliffs of Moher Engagement | Rhona + Cormac
A Cliffs of Moher Engagement. The fun fact about this session is that it actually happened the afternoon after Rhona + Cormac got married, and just before some amazing day after couple's formals too. We can't thank couple's like this enough for giving us the opportunity and time to run along the cliffs or the coasts with us for a couple of hours to get even more lovely magic than we did on their wedding day just the day before.
Portland In Home Session | Christie + KC
A Portland in home session. While Christie and her dude were on a PNW road trip they connected with us in Portland for what was planned to be a full day of shooting and adventuring for their anniversary. Some crazy timing and tire blowouts changed things around, fortunately everyone was safe and sound and we managed to still have some photos from the morning to show before they continued on their trip!
A Cape Kiwanda Elopement | Grayce + Tanner
An Outdoor Midwest Wedding | Sara + Corey
An Outdoor Midwest Wedding. Our paths with Sara + Corey crossed such a serendipitous way. We saw his adorable proposal online and ended up connecting through mutual friends. From our first coffee meeting onward they've felt like friends so much more than clients.
Sara + Corey have such a strong love for each other it's hard to put to words without using the words infectious. Everyone around them loves them, and wants to love like they do. Kind & thoughtful don't really begin to scratch the surface of how these two treat the people in the world around them. It's one of those special weddings where even we felt loved being there.
A Fiesta Backyard Wedding | Haley + Jose
A Fiesta Backyard Wedding. Haley + Jose met in college and took their day as an opportunity to celebrate not only themselves, but their circle of friends, family and traditions that run deep in their cultures. A simple midwest backyard turned into a celebration of color and love. Add in some elotes, a roasted pig and some of the best margaritas...it was a full on fiesta wedding.
