When weather conditions threatened their Washington elopement this past weekend, Joe and Stephanie decided at the last minute to book flights to Santa Barbara- a place where they had their first date, where Joe proposed, and now their wedding. They exchanged heartfelt vows on the beach, we did a little hiking in the Santa Ynez mountains, and then returned to the beach to meet with friends and family for the best tacos I believe I’ve ever had! The day was everything they’d wanted- from beginning to end.
You guys, last night with Greg + Brittany was unbelievable. One reason I love adventure sessions is that before I even start shooting, we talk. We have real conversations and get to know each other while we hike! I loved learning more about these two, getting all the details on how they met, how Greg proposed, seeing pictures of their family (adorable Alleigh and their dog, Kimber), and hearing about their celebrity sighting of Jason Momoa at a LA concert and meeting Miranda Lambert when they were in Hawaii! I value experiences more than anything, as well as the relationships created over the past several years with so many ‘clients’ turned friends. I get to document such memorable milestones in people’s lives, and I don’t take that lightly. Not for one second. My good client-turned-friend, @kimberlykommer, came along with us and took it upon herself to capture some videos from our evening! SWIPE to check out the beautiful video clip she created 🥰
I’m heading to one of my FAVORITE places tomorrow for a pretty epic adventure.... any guesses where?!?
Alpine lake swims are always a win in my book 🙌🏻 Icy dunks included! Who wants to go swimming?
I’m excited to say I’ll be heading to upstate NY next year to photograph these ladies exchange their vows among their closest family and friends! I’m so grateful for these opportunities, and am already counting down the days until next August! 🎉
Here’s a sneak peek into Forest and Alycia’s BEAUTIFUL day yesterday! I’m still picking my jaw up off the floor... Seriously though, I could not be happier for these two families uniting into one, and I cannot wait to share more with you!
Pop the champagne, it’s wedding day for these two! 🍾
From the archives: 3 years (+2 days) ago, Vince, Tracy and I were playing around in the North Cascades for one of the clearest, most colorful sunsets I’ve seen! Who wants to go? I’m offering a discounted adventure session for this Thursday or Friday!
Obviously, I can’t predict the weather. When taking off for an elopement or adventure session, I can’t guarantee views for miles, or the most colorful sunset you’ll ever see. But I can guarantee an EXPERIENCE- one with fun conversations, laughter, champagne popping, and moments worth cherishing for years to come. I’ll even share my gummy bears with you ♥️ Oh and pictures? I’ve got you covered... can’t forget those 🤣
Champagne pops may look easy, but sometimes it’s harder than it looks! Especially when temps drop down to the 40s, and you’re already a tad chilly... 🥶 BUT! We laughed for quite a while, and it’s an experience I know I won’t forget!
I hope everyone had a productive Monday! Meanwhile, I’m already looking toward my next adventure like... 🏔✌🏻🍾
Wow. I’m still amazed at what went down last night 🔥 @floraasheville @maggibridalasheville @cramseur @thelittlelinny @lindseyrourkepro @faithangelique w/@atlasbeauty_asheville
