I am so excited to share these photos. I was Tara and Morgan’s wedding photographer 3 years ago, and they are now expecting their first baby!

This session almost had to be rescheduled. There were some pretty ominous clouds overhead, and the weather predictions were becoming more and more dreary. They decided to go ahead and risk the rain, and we were running/driving away from the rain every few minutes. I am so glad we didn’t reschedule, because we got some AMAZING light, and a rainbow! It doesn’t get much better than that, folks.

Tara and Morgan are one of the sweetest and most genuine couples I know, and they are going to be amazing (and gorgeous) parents. I cannot wait to meet their perfect little girl when she arrives.

I had the huge honor of photographing my first elopement this weekend! I had an amazing time! I loved being able to attend such an intimate ceremony, and focus on just the two of them. Madison and Kevin were so sweet, and we had so much fun adventuring around the Santa Barbara Courthouse, and getting some delicious cupcakes at Crushcakes Cupcakery.

And yes, that is her wedding dress. They are beautiful and awesome.

Gus is a super sweet 6 month old I have had the pleasure of meeting when he was only hours old! He is growing into such a sweet baby boy. Gus’ parents found out soon after he was born that he has Cystic Fibrosis. It is a condition that he will have the rest of his life, but there is so much research and improvements on treatments that we are hoping to find a cure! They had a walk for awareness recently, so we took some photos for his thank you cards to all who donated to his team. He is such a sweet boy, and I guarantee you’ll be seeing more of him as he grows!
