Coastal Engagement Session

18 years ago I slung a camera strap around my neck, and I’ve been capturing moments and memories that will be cherished for generations to come ever since. My goal? Put you at ease in front of the camera and document what matters and giving you something timeless in a fleeting world.

Recently featured on the drool-worthy wedding inspiration site, Tahoe Unveiled, was Lauren and Kevin’s Valhalla Grand Hall wedding. I’d shoot this wedding over and over again if I could.
