I’ve met my couples in some pretty interesting ways over the years, but how I met these two was a one-of-a-kind experience. I met Jing and Rob on a styled wedding shoot they were modeling for back in February. It was a six-hour long session and, of course, we had a lot of time to […]

There is a lot I adore about this shoot, but the right place to start would probably be the loving couple in the photographs you’re about to see. I met Linda and Alex back in December when they were looking for a person to capture their intimate wedding in May of 2018. We chatted for […]

As you might already know, I’m a total dog lady. I have a schnauzer pup named Susy and I like to get her involved in as many parts of my life as I can! Meet Susy! I also find that lots of my clients have a furry friend (or two, or three) that they want […]

Engagement sessions are always a lot of fun and a chance for us to get to know each other better before your big day! That said, I know there are lots of things to think about before the session and that can be intimidating. The most important ones are to pick a perfect location and […]

If you’re engaged and looking for a wedding photographer or you already have one lined up, you’re probably wondering whether or not you should have engagement photos taken. From my experience, most couples prefer to have their engagement pictures taken, but some skip out on it. If you’re in the majority, however, I have a […]

Wedding of Tori and David was a dream! They flew us to San Diego and the mom of Tori’s best friend warmly hosted us at her place. We truly felt like a part of the family! Tori & David chose to have their wedding at an amazing venue called Ethereal Open Air Resort. This venue […]

Let me start this post by telling you that photographing Hana and Jeremy’s wedding was an absolute dream come true! I have a million reasons why their day was so special, but let’s begin with the most important one: Their wedding day was about them, their loved ones, and most of all, their incredible bond. […]

You might not know this, but I grew up in Ukraine where winters are cold and snowy. When I was little, there was nothing better than playing in the snow all day long and coming back home with wet feet and a red nose! I remember this time with such nostalgia and winter always brings […]

I always encourage my couples to make their engagement sessions fun and to plan for something special. You’re going to be engaged for such a short period of time, so you might as well spend it having lots of fun together! When it comes to doing something unique and special, what can be better than […]

  I’d had this idea kicking around in my head for a while. It wasn’t even fully formed, but I just had a feeling that I had to flesh this out. I wanted to create inspirational photographs for brides who love that Anthropology vibe, lots of greenery, lace, and gold accents! Even though I love […]

The first thing I thought about when I entered Jenna and Omar’s wedding venue was, “All these flowers are incredible. This is going to be a great day.” Fortunately, I was so right. This ceremony was one filled with love, joy, and so much beauty. Let’s start from the beginning. Jenna and Omar chose to […]

I always love weddings at wineries. Even though I obviously don’t drink at work, it still does the soul some good to be around great wine, right? But you know how most wineries have an almost vintage, rustic feel? Well, this one wasn’t anything like that. I’d say it was the polar opposite: modern, with […]

  Weddings are all about details and personal touches. I love taking photos of some of the little details added in by the bride and groom, because these are the things that make their day look and feel even more special. I photograph the bride’s and groom’s details in a way that matches and showcases […]

Confession: I love fall so, so much. I mean, between the foliage, the perfect temperature, and all those Sunday afternoons spent huddled up on the couch with some hot tea, what more could you ask for? This editorial session was inspired by all things fall and designed by Buttercup Event Co.! We chose to shoot […]

One of my favorite parts of my job is getting to know couples at the engagement shoot. Learning more about them in such an intimate setting helps me learn what their vision is not just for that shoot, but for their wedding day. I love that we all get to create something so special together! […]
