Authentic stories and real couples. Excited anticipation, heartfelt ceremony, and joyous celebration. A kind of photographic time machine. These are prime examples of my style of visual storytelling.

Shelldance Orchid Garden Elopement, Pacifica, California

An adventure elopement among orchids and sweeping views of the San Francisco Bay! This couple has one of those love stories that you only ever hear about in the movies.

Sequoia Kings Canyon Elopement, California

Flying all the way from Maine, these two dreamed of marrying each other beneath towering sequoias. "To feel small" as they described their hopes to me. Despite a two year delay and many speed bumps along the way, that wish finally came true.

Backyard Zoom Wedding, Santa Cruz, California

Oh yes, virtual ceremonies are now a thing! These two originally planned an epic wedding in LA, but of course, those plans changed. While they still hope to have their big party some day, they chose to elope at their home in Santa Cruz in the meantime.

Santa Cruz Mountain Elopement, Los Gatos, California

Just a month after wildfires tore through the Santa Cruz Mountains, this couple eloped on a peak overlooking the still-smoldering Big Basin State Park. The resilient, redwood-filled forest was an unexpectedly beautiful backdrop for this intimate wedding.

Garrapata Elopement, Carmel-By-The-Sea, California

A summer sunset, the beach, and your partner in crime. Yep, that's the winning combination for the best elopement in Big Sur! It takes a lot of fearlessness and love to travel thousands of miles and explore the unknown together.

Post Ranch Inn Adventure Elopement, Big Sur, California

What happens when two Swedish artists elope in Big Sur? Well, magic, obviously. J & S own and run a creative video studio together in Sweden and when they started to plan their wedding, they realized they wanted it to be anything but ordinary.

Burning Man Inspired Wedding, San Francisco, CA

When you can't go to Burning Man, you gotta bring Burning Man to you! These two bonded over a love of Burning Man, and while they would have loved to tie the knot at Black Rock City they still honored that connection by bringing the playa to the redwoods!
