Traveling has been a passion of mine since I got my first passport at 6 months old (no joke!) I sat on my moms lap and made gaga sounds at the photographer. I started traveling alone at age 6 to visit my Aunt in Missouri every Summer. I haven't stopped since. Where I go, my camera follows. I love experiencing new places and capturing each one in my own way.

Mandi and Allison met with this sweet couple at Santa Rosa Plateau in Temecula. They had quite the run in with the ranger and after some reprimanding and a case of mistaken identity, they were on their way to a fun engagement session!
My fav! <3
Congrats to you two! And best wishes on your September wedding, I know Mandi is looking forward to it!

When I went to WPPI in 2009 I didn’t get a chance to shoot at all! So I knew when I went in 2010, I had to make that happen! I helped organize a group trash the dress for my friends and even got some tag-alongs along the way! And Mandi and Charise decided to don their wedding dresses and play model in front of the camera instead of behind for once!
We had fun traipsing around the Strip of Las Vegas, with lots of onlookers and catcallers and even Spiderman!
This is what a group trash the dress looks like!
You tend to get a lot of arms in your way… 😉
These were my Vegas roomies! Such a fun group of girls!
Couldn’t resist a photo of us! New About Us photo maybe? 🙂
Cannot wait to see what WPPI 2011 has in store!

I only met Devon one time before her wedding weekend and I remember thinking what an easy going and beautiful bride she would be. Boy, was I right! The whole day was centered around the love of Devon and Todd and it could be felt by anyone in their presence.
We started the day at the Harbor Island Hilton. Devon and her girls were having a blast, I’m posting a few more getting ready images than I normally do…
Love this shot Mandi got:
The ceremony was held at NTC Chapel, right next to my studio!
This was my first sword arch – so fun!
Stunning!
The light was going down as we got to Tom Ham’s Lighthouse.
This was a dancing group! DJ Daniel Peterson from DiscoFriend played some awesome music!
And a big thank you to Kasey Shephard for being a fabulous coordinator (as usual)!
Devon and Todd – hope you enjoy your photos and congrats on such a wonderful day!

These two lovebirds booked me a long time ago for their 2010 wedding…it had been a long time since I had seen them! We caught up on life while avoiding the rent-a-cops at Seaport Village.
Just before the sun went down, we headed to Hotel Del for a few beach photos. It was super overcast this day, so the sunset wasn’t remarkable, but these two are so hot, they create their own heat! haha
I’m looking forward to your Labor Day Weekend wedding!
xoxo, M
