London Retrospect on Film

London is a wonderful city that balances 20th Century diversity and traditional British ideals beautifully. The city is alive with a hustle and bustle, but relaxation is never too far away with one of the city’s many parks. It’s here that you can relax with friends and enjoy the London sunshine, when it does decide to make an appearance.

Nicole and Brad wed amongst the company of their close family and friends at the Beaulieu Garden nestled in the Napa Valley.

Bermudian Summers: A Travel Film

Summer is coming and with it so does the desire for sun-soaked afternoons spent outside. Recently, we traveled to the island of Bermuda and got to enjoy the lively people, beautiful landscape, and iconic architecture. It seemed like at every turn, there was another bit of quite charm just waiting to be explored.

Radiant Santa Ynez Wedding Celebration

As I’ve traveled around the world, I’ve noticed that the quality of light seems to be distinct to each place and I love to watch and see how that light fills a space and transforms a moment. Lit by the warm light of the California Sun, Shayna & Seth’s wedding was beautifully set amongst an old olive grove followed by their reception set underneath a gorgeous starry night sky.

A California Coastal Wedding

Sometimes there’s really no place like home and when we have the opportunity to shoot on the California Coast, it really does not get any better than that. Taylor & Michael’s beautiful Montage Laguna Beach wedding was a mix of both traditional values and a playful relaxed experience. To top it all off, Taylor & Michael celebrated with their family and friends while enjoying a world class meal set against a spectacular sunset.
