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.
Stella + Nate have such a romantic love story. They met online (via Instagram!!) and started chatting. Chatting turned to romance which turned to meeting in person. After their initial meeting, they both knew. Not long after, Nate moved across the country to marry the love of his life and now the mother of his child! These two are just so kind and caring. Two of the sweetest, trusting clients I’ve had. I’m thrilled to share their Palm Springs wedding with you! 
This wedding is a little extra special to me because the bride is the little sister to my best friend Audra! When people say you go together like Peanut Butter & Jelly, they are talking about Dara and Bryan. They are so perfectly matched as a couple and now parents to an adorable little girl! One of my favorite memories of their wedding day was when Bryan signed an adoption document to adopt Dara’s beloved pup, Albie! How cute are they?!
