I'm an outgoing ambivert who loves to connect in deep and meaningful ways with others. I live in a cozy forest cottage in the Santa Cruz mountains. I'm a fan of hiking among ferns, painting with watercolor, and dreaming up fun and unconventional parties. I have been photographing weddings & elopements full time for 12 years.
ALL people are welcome here. Couples and polycules of all gender identities, orientations, ethnicities, races, religions, sizes, and abilities.
The reason I have been a wedding and elopement photographer for 12 years is simple: honest, thoughtful documentation of our deepest moments adds meaningful longevity to the memories and milestones we worked hard to create. My heart feels full when I use my gifts and skills to do meaningful work that makes a bright little difference in a monumental moment in a person's life.
You found life-changing love! I am genuinely so happy for you! You're about to experience some beautiful moments and emotions that may be completely new to you. Those moments should be given space and documented with honest, un-staged photographs that let you return to that experience. Don't you think?
Contrived photos will end up in the trash and steal from your ability to fully experience the present moment. You are not about to be burdened with that! Instead of turning your day into one big photoshoot, let's bring the focus back to what truly matters. Yes, we will take beautiful portraits too! But, the priority will be discreetly capturing meaningful, candid photos that let you return to emotions and important moments years later. Those are the photos that will be held dear and eventually framed by hospital beds and at funerals as years pass.
A *whoosh* is the tingly feeling you get when a moment is worth remembering. It’s when you feel something beautiful.
