George & Melissa, One Year Anniversary | San Luis Obispo Elopement Photographer

One year ago, I woke up at 6am to a text message from my dear friend and photography cohort, Sabrina Klomp. It was an SOS. She had been stricken with food poisoning and was supposed to be photographing a wedding that day. This is why we have a village — to call for aid when we are in trouble. Sabrina had been there for me through many a quarry, and I was grateful to be able to show up for her in dire straights.

That wedding was George & Melissa’s (which you can see over on Sabrina’s blog, if you’d like).
And for their one year anniversary, I got to hang out with them on the Cambrian cliffs and do it all over again. Life is beautiful that way.

If Covid has taught us anything, it’s to find gratitude in the unlikely places. It’s also taught us a great deal about flexibility, creativity, and what’s REALLY important. And know one feels these lessons greater than couples getting married this year.

After 12 years of photographing weddings, I thought I’d seen it all. I was very, very wrong.
The way couples get creative in having their wedding celebration despite the wrenches 2020 has been throwing like confetti — it inspires me to the core. Because at the end of the day, all you need is each other and a few loves ones to cheer when you share your first kiss as Mr. & Mrs. And a killer photographer to capture it, of course.

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.
