about the artist

I've always loved telling stories, but never enjoyed writing. When I
found photography, it was the perfect medium for me to express myself. With each shoot, I unveil the unique stories of
my subjects, and tell them with beautiful imagery. People often tell me
that they feel like they know my clients just from reading my blog.

They say photographs are the only tangible memories after a wedding,
which means that my perspective is how you will remember your big day. With that in mind, I have to capture the details (big and
small) in the most beautiful light. I want you to laugh and cry (tears
of joy, of course) when you look at your photos. Whether it's your wedding day or your babies growing up, time goes
by so fast, so it's
my job to document your story... beautifully.

I am based in Los Angeles, but love to travel.

Destination weddings are most certainly welcomed!

In order to give each client my full creative energy, I only take a limited number of weddings a year. (aka I book up fast and don't offer discounts.)

Up! Regina & Danny are planning their wedding in 4 months! Amazing! What that also meant was that we had to quickly do their engagement session because their wedding is in mid-June! Great thing they already knew the location they wanted to shoot at, so stylizing this shoot was very smooth. I love the red theme we did throughout with the washed out backdrop! It was surprisingly really overcast, so I played up the weather’s tones.

We started with 6 balloons. One popped as we walked from our cars. We got one shot with the 5 balloons, and as we walked, we hit another tree and 3 more popped. And then we were down to 2. lol. It ended up being cute with 2.

Regina’s fabulous hair & makeup was done by none other than the amazing Kelly Zhang.

This beach was SO SO beautiful! It totally reminded me of our honeymoon in Hawaii!

Thanks Regina & Danny for a wonderful shoot! Can’t wait for your wedding in 2 weeks!!!
