California Elopement – Emily & Brandon

When I first started my business 10 years ago, my husband spent one year as my 2nd shooter before he finally broke down and told me he just couldn’t do it any more. (Apparently long days photographing weddings and being ON non-stop isn’t for everyone? Who knew). The hunt for a new partner in crime was short — because THIS girl. Emily and I have known each other since we were emo little middle schoolers at the church youth group, and we were the perfect fit. A LOT has happened since our time slinging cameras every weekend (stories which demand bottles of wine and a blog post novel — so I will keep it short), but I am SO grateful that I still get to count her among my friends. She is a fellow badass mom boss who works a day job, runs her own photography business, has two beautiful daughters, and inspires me to no end.

And then there’s Brandon. This guy is full of humor, laughter, and adoration for his beautiful bride. These two have been together over 5 years, and finally decided to make it official in front of their 5 closest friends… and me 🙂 Intimate little elopements like these fill my heart to the brim. The wind was blowing, the sun was moving through the clouds with feline stealth, and the energy between these two lovebirds was thick with emotion and commitment. I could not be more honored to have been a witness and documenter of such a glorious moment in history.

Based in San Luis Obispo and traveling the globe documenting destination weddings, elopements, and stories of all kinds. Inspired by love, light, heartache, and all the things that make us human.
