I’ve known Matt for a few years, since before he met Alyssa, and it’s been such a pleasure watching their relationship. He’s just so clearly smitten with her, and of course, I can never get enough of smitten couples. These two were such troopers through some of the oddest spring weather we had in our rainiest-in-recorded-history March. We had sunbreaks, we had showers, we had everything in between. Cathedral Park in St. Johns was the setting for our shoot…
The next day we headed over to Lompoc’s Side Bar on North Williams for a few beers and a few more images…
Congratulations, Matt and Alyssa!! I’m so, so happy for you two.

I’ve always been a traveler. I blame my parents for raising me like a nomad. So when KD got in touch with me about shooting a wedding in Alaska, I jumped at the chance. And then she reiterated: Alaska. In December. Cold? I’m from Michigan. I can handle it. And I’m so glad I did, because it was such a wonderful experience. I felt so incredibly lucky to have sunshine as we landed, and once I got settled at the hotel, I was off with KD and Wess for the engagement shoot. They picked an amazing spot on Douglas Island, across the channel from Juneau proper.
I’ll say this: Alaskans come from hearty stock. KD and Wess had no problem tromping around in the snow and even getting their feet wet. Love it.
Favorite shot of the day! I couldn’t believe we stumbled upon actual ruins in Alaska, but nevertheless, there we were.
Next up, their New Year’s Eve wedding celebration!

Just a little bit of sweetness for the day before Thanksgiving. I know my friend Tricia (and fantastic hair stylist at Blu) is so thankful for this little bundle that came her way last month. Here’s Miss Tennessee…
Baby shoots don’t have to be fussy affairs! We got little Tennessee after she had just woken up from a nap and was good and happy. Clear off the bed, lay down some blankets, that’s all the backdrop the little ones need. Okay, so the gorgeous window light was the bonus…
