“She had the biggest crush on him, but wouldn’t gather the courage to actually talk to him for the next few months. Once they finally got to talking, he asked her out on a date, and a year later, they were married at Chateau Lill with the prettiest classic details. Modern touches like their signage placed all over the venue, and Kaia’s earrings and jewelry were the perfect finishing touches on the day.”

“Tim and Amanda were some of the most welcoming people we have ever met, their presence is calming, but fun. They have an insane amount of fun when they’re together, and that was all but clear on their wedding day dancing and singing in the pouring rain. They put so much time and detail into their big day, and it was an absolute dream of mine to be able to capture it all. “

…”Little details like their signs & cake table were handmaid by the bride and groom. Just so much love, & sweat went into making this day what it was. They had the whole ranch to themselves for the weekend, so the atmosphere was extremely chill & everyone was so relaxed on the day of since they had ample time the day before for the set up. Gina wanted to make sure she hired tons of small businesses, and everyone created magic for this amazing couple!!!”

“…When Miriam first reached out to me, she was SURE I was going to be her wedding photographer. SO sure, in fact, she messaged me BEFORE she was engaged!!! AHAHA, she definitely said yes to the photographer before seeing the ring. But having been with Kholt for many years, she knew it was coming soon, and wanted to make sure her perfect intimate elopement was planned with plenty of time TO PLAN! hehe…”

…Derek admitted to sometimes not even feeling like drinking coffee, but still going in to the store to buy a cup so he could talk to Kaia. Both being super shy about the other person, their love finally blossomed one day, when Derek asked Kaia on a date. Of course she couldn’t resit, and here they are today.

…I stayed the night at Dean and Sierra’s the day before they’re shoot, and we sat around their fire, outside their brand new house, eating smores and reflecting on all the time they had spent together as a couple. The next day we ventured up to Mt Rainier (one of their fav spots) and captured their time as fiancés.

…The sun shining down on us, we had the most amazing time petting Burrito (the donkey), walking with the peacocks, dancing by the pool, playing with shadows, drinking, and dancing the night away. I was beyond excited to be invited to Mexico to capture the two of them celebrate years and years of love and friendship surrounded by their closest friends and family.

…And when I finally met up with them in Big Sur to capture their engagement session, it felt as though I had been catching up with long lost friends. I’m not kiddinggggg hahah we all got along SO well together. I was so excited running all over these beautiful green and yellow hill sides once we just pulled over on some random road.

…They laughed, they cried, they took tequila shots during their wedding. Yup, ain’t joking about that one and I was SO EXCITED ABOUT IT.

…Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE SIMPLE PROPOSALS. But before I stuck my head full of ideas into places it shouldn’t be, I asked him if he would like any wine, or a blanket laid out for the two of them to celebrate afterwards. We talked a little bit more, and then a little more, and then a little more, before I heard the magic words from this groom to be: “Kayla, I trust whatever you think will look great, I know it will!”.
