Emma and Jake’s intimate Newport Beach wedding took place at Pelican Hill, a great venue that would normally be booked solid with weddings and events.

This private and intimate Palos Verdes elopement was held in such a beautiful area at the Neighborhood Church. The Neighborhood Church sits right on a cliffside overlooking the water.

When a Five Crowns wedding comes along that involves taking a ride in a convertible mustang to the nearby beach to capture romantic moments between the bride and groom, it’s a given the shots are going to be incredible. Thankfully, this Five Crowns wedding followed that rule instead of breaking it. I love shooting in […]

While a city hall might not be your first choice for an intimate wedding day shoot, let me change your mind with this Pasadena City Hall photoshoot.
