What a joy it was to photograph the sweet Yrigollen family for the third year in a row! This year's session was extra special as I got to meet their newest addition, adorable baby Waylon! We returned to beautiful Lema Ranch in Redding, California, where the dreamy golden hour glow shining through the olive trees made for the perfect backdrop. I just love watching this family grow and capturing these precious memories year after year! 🤍

It was so wonderful getting to see the sweet Rosales family again for their family session at Verbena Fields in Chico! It's been a whole year since I last photographed Kat, Miguel, and little Lucas, and I couldn't believe how much Lucas has grown! He's walking now and is just the cutest little guy! We had the best time soaking up the dreamy golden light filtering through the trees, capturing sweet snuggles, giggles, and all the little moments that make this season so special. I just love getting to watch families grow year after year! 🤍

Kasey and Jason’s gorgeous ranch wedding at Bow and Arrow Ranch in Whitmore, California was full of joy, personality, and so many sweet moments! From Kasey’s stunning white pantsuit and embroidered cowgirl boots to fishing by the pond, an epic golden hour, and a reception packed with dancing, their day felt perfectly them. It was such an honor to celebrate alongside their closest friends and family and document this beautiful beginning!

Cassey and Mook’s Lake Almanor wedding was filled with colorful details, breathtaking views, and the sweetest people! From their stunning first look on the dock overlooking the lake and mountains to the most incredible sunset portraits, every part of their day felt so special. Their intimate celebration at a family member’s private lakeside residence was beautiful, joyful, and full of love, and Matt and I were truly honored to capture it all!

What started as a sweet baby shower for Rachel and Daniel quickly turned into the most unforgettable surprise wedding! After celebrating with food, games, and loved ones, the couple shocked their guests by announcing they were getting married right then and there. From the priceless reactions and Rachel’s gorgeous gown to a heartfelt ceremony officiated by her grandmother, it was such a beautiful day filled with love, family, and the best kind of surprise!

Kayden and Ben's Fourth of July wedding at The Giddy in McCloud, California was a day filled with joyful moments, breathtaking Mt. Shasta portraits, a stunning bridal suite first look, an unforgettable dance floor, and a spectacular sparkler exit. It was an incredible celebration of love surrounded by family and friends, and we were honored to capture every meaningful moment from start to finish. 

Adria and Nick's mountain ranch wedding was filled with meaningful family traditions, breathtaking scenery, perfect summer weather, and unforgettable moments—from an adorable dog ring bearer to a sparkling sendoff under the stars. It was an absolute joy to celebrate these two and document another beautiful chapter in their family's story.

Kasey and Jason's engagement session in the forests of Whitmore, California was made even more meaningful by the location itself—the beautiful property they recently purchased and where they plan to build their future dream home. Surrounded by towering pines, golden light, and the peaceful landscape they both love, their session perfectly reflected their shared passion for the outdoors and the exciting journey ahead.

Some families become so much more than clients, and Clay and Ashley are one of those families for me. From their engagement session and wedding day to maternity photos and now family portraits with their newest little addition, Alora, it has been such a gift to document their journey. We returned to the beautiful 29 Rows Lavender Farm in Happy Valley, where golden summer light, blooming lavender, and years of memories came together for a truly special evening.
