Families

 

Love stories. Legacies. life.

Love fuels me. Legacies inspire me. Family is everything to me.

San Diego is my hometown but the people I come home to everyday are my home. My girls are my EVERYDAY WHY. (I’ve got three of them)

I am passionate freedom and God's unrelenting, fierce pursuit of me astounds me. I feel most at home when I'm surrounded by light, there is fresh coffee is brewing and I'm being serenaded by Ella or Louis ' timeless vocals. My soul comes alive when I get to witness sweet exchanges between two people in love. CELEBRATING is my favorite. On any given day you can catch me singing along to one of the hundreds of Disney songs I've got memorized or snuggling with my favorite people ;)

So how did I end up choosing photography? Click the link below to hear more of my story.

I adore these two and this image of them soaking up sweet kisses on their wedding day. Their venue at @lionsgateventlocation was the perfect setting for them to surround themselves with family and friends as they vowed to love each other for an eternity. The best is yet to come you two.

It's been summer for a whollllleeee week! Have you been to the beach yet? 🏖 I for one plan to be there ATLEAST once a week this summer. I definitely want to get back to surfing at some point too! A pretty lofty goal since I've got a pretty full schedule...BUT living in San Diego makes it easy to stop and enjoy life. There's much to do and discover together. How are you going to enjoy summer this weekend? #sandiegosunshine #beachlife #discover #explore #family #yolo #sandiegolife #sandiegophotography #everydayagift #socality #summertime #summervacay #selfcare #sandytoes

"Give me a kiss to build a dream on.. And my imagination will linger with that kiss." - Louis Armstrong One of the BEST parts about your wedding is stealing some sweet time to savor your dream come true. Alba & Henry sure did that as they often would just look at each other in awe. #sophiaelizabethphotography #sandiegowedding #sandiegosunshine #sandiegophotographer #lovestories #besos #kisses #louisarmstrong #sheraton #harborisland #sandiegobay #theknot #weddingwire #ourweddingconnection #socality #risingtide #greenweddingshoes #theweddingchicks #isaidyes #ido #justmarried #engaged
"All the riches in the world couldn't compare to you my love. " You guys! It's Monday. Are you hustle/task driven today or relationship driven? I know it seems kind of counter cultural to say that we should be interupptable. Buuuutttt have ever thought about why we're not? Our successes shouldn't come at the expense of relating to the sea full of precious people around you. The heartbeat behind what I do is 100% people driven. If you know me at any level, you know I work my butt off, I can't not because I'm out to do THE BEST that I can. But to me, real success is connection. Real success is every person I come in contact with to walk away knowing they are precious, they are seen and they are worth everything. I hope you taste a little bit of that today and it causes you to stop and be interupptable.
