Deanna & Jeremy’s Tioga Pass E-session

We definitely know Deanna and Jeremy are not afraid of heights. They’ve chosen Glacier Point for their ceremony next year and asked about doing engagement photos at Olmstead Point. So, for our highest elevation shoot to date, we travelled up to 8,000-9,000 feet on Tioga Road for their session. We just love the crisp blue...

Kristin and Jason’s Yosemite E-Session

We are really looking forward to their wedding this Saturday at Wolf Lakes. We know it will be a day full...

Elisabeth & John’s Yosemite Engagement Guest Book

Guest sign-in books are a new option we offer in addition to our wedding and engagement sessions. It’s a way to showcase images from an e-session and provide guests with something to sign as they enter your ceremony or reception. We just love this album we designed for John and Liz.

Liz and David’s Mt. Diablo E-Session

Our apologies for being a little behind on blog posts. In the Spring we traveled to the Bay Area for Liz and David’s engagement session. They had suggested a visit to Mount Diablo State Park for their engagement photos and it was such a great spot. The views from the Diablo Valley Overlook were incredible...

Erin & Matthew’s E-Session

Erin and Matthew’s wedding was just two days ago and a couple of weeks ago we photographed their engagement session. We really enjoyed getting to know them and hearing about the wedding plans. Both are part of agricultural families, so we decided to visit the plant (part of Matthew’s family business) to get some photos...

Bri & Donnie’s Central Coast E-Session

We headed over to San Simeon, just North of Cambria, for Bri and Donnie’s engagement session to one of our favorite beaches. They loved the idea of an ocean shoot and wanted to include their beautiful dog, Cody. He was not disappointed (except that he didn’t get to be in all of the photos). We...

Devan is from North Dakota. Cindi’s close friend moved there and told Cindi she had found a husband...
