Ben + Liz

Easter 2011 was BEYOND amazing. 

Not only did I wake up to rainy personal love letter from God, but I got to hang out with Ben and Liz in Liz's family beach house in Cayucos. This house holds a special place in their hearts, not only beacuse Liz grew up running around the beach in front of the house, but Ben popped the question in the kitchen!!! (she said "yes"... just in case you were wondering). 

I had the most blessed time getting to know these two and the story that brought them to where they are.

Nick + Chelsea

I would adventure down Highway 46 West with these two ANY day!!!

I've always said that if you can laugh together, you can make it through anything.... needless to say, life is going to be one laughter-filled adventure for these two :)

Mother's Day Special

MOTHER - n. A woman who creates, originates, or founds something.

How are you showing your mother how much you love and appreciate her this Mother's Day? 

I got to thinking - what better way to thank her for your existence than to capture and document this time in your family's life? Give her the gift of time, by freezing these precious moments forever. 

This special is good until Mother's Day 2011 (May 8th). 

You will receive a fun gift certificate to present to your mother on her special day :)

Bruce + Erin [Arroyo Grande, CA]

I could not be blessed with a more perfect wedding to kick off this year's wedding season. 

If you can't tell from the photos, Bruce and Erin are over the top, beside themselves, CRAZY in love with each other. I will never be able to accurately describe how adorable, beautiful, precious and PERFECT this whole day was. It was filled with laughter, ear-to-ear smiles, dancing, and lots of wine (I knew I liked them for a reason!). 

Here's to 2011!

It's going to be a good year. 

Oh, and you can see their engagement/family photos HERE.

This next photo is of Erin seeing her son, Tanner, in his tux for the first time :)

[Beloved]

I don't even know where to BEGIN! I am so DRIVEN and PASSIONATE for this right now.
Beloved is a new mindset I have adopted, and have been slowly introducing it into my normal "engagement" or "lovebird" sessions.

So... for all you lovebirds (married or not married) out there who could do for a breath of fresh, romantic air... this is for you (really it's for everybody, whether you realize it or not). I want to give you a special, intimate experience with your special someone that is bound to make you fall in love with them all over again.

Email me for booking info and pricing :)

Matt & Kathrin

Matt & Kathrin are madly in love. You wouldn't even have to know them to realize that.

There's something magical that happens when two lovebirds catch each other in their gaze.... and let me tell you - the 2 hours I spent with these two was just one big magic show :)
