This Halloween elopement editorial gave me allllll the spooky fall vibes I needed! Around this time last year, a TikTok trend blew up of people putting pumpkins over their heads and taking photos in the woods.

Jami + Malik’s Spring Yosemite Elopement The idea behind this Yosemite elopement editorial came when I sent a local photographer, Karen Vargas, a message on Instagram. I told her “Let me know if you’re ever down to put together a little elopement editorial with me. Maybe in the mountains or something?” Needless to say, we […]

Jessica + Corey’s Bass Lake Anniversary Photos Bass Lake holds an extra special place in my heart. I had some family live up the mountain when I was younger, and I have a lot of good memories hanging out on the lake. From going airborne in an inner tube to jumping off rocks I definitely […]

As a wedding + elopement photographer, Yosemite National Park has always been one of my dream photography destinations. After my husband and I did our day-after session in Yosemite after our wedding this past October, it became my favorite location for all types of sessions.
