Buckle up, because B + A took “wild” to a whole new level! Out in the heart of the desert, they brought their vintage bronco, their trusty campsite-on-wheels, and their dirt bikes for an adrenaline-packed session that’s like something out of a rockin’ adventure movie. With dust kicking up around them, they looked like the ultimate desert daredevils – conquering the landscape with a flair that’s just plain awesome. Imagine it: the sun dipping low, casting a warm glow on their laughter as they posed by the bronco and revved up those dirt bikes. It’s like they’re writing their own desert anthem, and the cacti are dancing along. From the sandy trails to the starlit campfire, this session was like a high-five to all things wild and free.

Get ready to turn up the groove, because this engagement session was pure homey happiness! L + N brought the house down – literally – during their in-home session in a rad Palm Springs crib. Imagine this: twirling around the record room, their laughter syncopating with the music. Vinyl beats and love’s rhythm, what a combo! And that’s not all, folks. The kitchen turned into their hangout hub, where they whipped up love as savory as any dish. Mixing giggles, they gave the room a run for its money in the “cuteness” department. Who knew that walls could practically blush? From the record spins to the heartwarming kitchen chats, this session was a real-life love song, and Palm Springs was the perfect chorus.

Step into a time machine, folks, because M + C’s session was a retro blast in the heart of the desert! Picture this: a quirky outdoor art museum becomes the backdrop for a love story that’s straight out of a vintage postcard. These two rocked the scene with their throwback style and killer attitudes. Amidst the eclectic sculptures and eye-popping installations, they were like modern-day art themselves, adding their unique brushstrokes to the canvas of desert nostalgia. From groovy poses to laughter that echoed through the artistic corridors, they turned the museum into a playground of love. It’s like they were channeling the spirit of the past while spinning their own love tale. Move over, art – these two just stole the show!

Waking up for sunrise is hard, but if you have a great reason then it’s definitely worth it! Z and M love to surf at sunrise, it’s one of their favorite things to do and I love that I just happened to capture them doing it, even if just a little! They love catching the waves early and watching the sun come up as they glide along. It’s so peaceful and special, and it’s something that they both love to do together.

B, C and I had an amazing time in the scenic desert of Palm Springs! It seems like a no brainer to take advantage of the stunning landscape and the complete quite the desert has to offer while in California. Not to mention the fact that the B + C looked amazing – B in his white shirt with dark slacks and C in her exquisite Rue De Seine dress, they were a vision! This unique combination of classic and modern elements created a beautiful space to capture their energy and love.

Overcast days are some of my favorites. It is less bright outside which = no squinty eyes, it creates soft light on your skin, and it seems that there are less people out and about! And that is exactly what we got during this week day session near San Francisco with D + M. We could not have asked for better weather. The clouds made it moody and the weather was the perfect temperature.

Imagine a date night with your person that includes a vintage car, a sunset view from Malibu cliffs, and beautiful florals! That is what C + S did on a Wednesday night in February. It is nice and sometimes necessary to take a break in the chaos of life and work to reconnect and breathe. After finding the perfect pull off, with views facing the west, we hoped out of the car to experience the quite up there. My favorite part of this evening was that after the sun had set and blue hour was upon us, we turned on the headlights for C + S to dance to their favorite song as the last of the light left us.

Running around on this chilly morning with A + V was well worth the early wake up call and the cold!

A + V went to the University of Tennessee Knoxville (go vols!) along with a good friend of mine E who I also met at UTK. After graduating A + V moved out to Los Angeles and E moved on up to NYC, but we still stayed in touch.
