Could you guess where this wedding took place while scrolling through the photos? A pretty mountain lodge? A cozy crafstman-style resort? Would you guess it was at the happiest place on earth? :) Tim...
At Nisha & Woody’s wedding, there was quite a bit of talk about opposites. Like that Woody is an artist and Nisha is an attorney. That one is right-brained, one is left. One is a dreamer w...

This wedding makes my heart happy! I felt it was such a perfect extension of Candice & James’ engagement session – warm, genuine, laidback, and full of down-to-earth love. The LA Riv...
Four friends. Ten days. Rome, Venice, Paris, Amsterdam, London. I had been to some of these cities (and a few others) in Europe as a kid. I remembered very little, so I had conjured up these fantasti...
