I am a California girl at heart who is lucky enough to live in one of the most wonderful, un-California cities in the world, New York. Most days, you'll find me exploring my new home with my amazing husband and our dog, Friday. I love to travel, eat just about anything with peanut butter, meet new friends, shop, read, take pictures, and spoil other peoples' kids and pets rotten. This blog includes my rants and raves about my personal life as well as my adventures in the photography business.

Inspired by fashion, art, and pop culture, I love to capture images using natural light. Although I enjoy taking all kinds of pictures, my style veers towards lifestyle and editorial photography and my favorite subjects are people. I am a photographer purely for the love of it, and I think you'll see that reflected in my work.

Thank you for stopping by and please feel free to leave a comment!

Keith and Mariah: Rehearsal

As the beautiful bride and beaming groom walked down the aisle to strains of "All You Need Is Love," I think everyone attending sighed a little. That happy, joyful sigh when all is right and you know that two people who are perfect together have committed themselves to each other for the rest of their lives. On a sunny, hot day the last weekend in July, Keith and Mariah were that gorgeous bride and groom.


I was so excited when Keith asked me to help capture their rehearsal and rehearsal dinner because he's been a dear friend for most of my life. These events are such a fun time, as friends and family gather and excitement and anticipation for the actual wedding build. Normally, the bride and groom also look much more relaxed during the rehearsal process, but if Keith or Mariah were nervous on their wedding day, it didn't show a bit. Call it destiny, fate, God's will - whatever your beliefs - but they had the contented look of two people walking down the aisle toward what was simply meant to be.


Here are just a few images from the day before the big day... Congratulations and much love to you both!
