Marlene and Adam’s Smoky Hollow Studios wedding was EXTRA special for me: I’ve been friends with Marlene since we met through mutual wedding-industry friends almost seven years ago. We’ve worked on product and recipe shoots together, I fell in love with her sauces and spices (and her INCREDIBLE cooking), and now we make it a […]
Erica + CJ // Topa Mountain Winery
Erica and CJ’s Topa Mountain Winery wedding was one I looked forward to for months! Ever since we bonded during their engagement session, I was bursting with excitement to see them again at their Ojai wedding in August. This fun, down-to-earth, hilarious couple first met on a blind date: three years ago, Erica had just […]
Kelsey + Ian // Dos Pueblos Orchid greenhouse wedding
Kelsey and Ian’s Dos Pueblos Orchid greenhouse wedding was an insane amount of fun.

The bride wore […]

Dara + Chad // Palm Springs Colony 29
