Kit Carson Park Escondido | Pauley Family

What interested me most about Kit Carson Park was Queen Califia's Magical Circle. A sculpture garden which consists of large scale sculptures and a circular "snake wall" maze entry. Pretty cool.

Meet the Pauley family. They are locals who have spent many days in this beautiful park for walks, picnics, and leisure time. So, naturally this became a location to document family memories through photographs.

Oh, and you might notice a part of that circular snake in the background...

Citrus Club at La Quienta Resort | Joe and Cathy

I really liked Cathy from the moment we met. Her sweet smile and giddy laugh warmed my heart as we chatted over coffee about the details of her wedding day. She was smitten by her fiance's spontaneous proposal and agreed to a speedy wedding date which was one month away...yes, I said one month!

Nevertheless, we worked fast, and Cathy and Joe were married in a beautiful intimate ceremony set in the desert sunset of the Citrus Club at the La Quienta Resort.






The handsome groom, Joe.


Joe with his daughters, who seemed a little surprised by their well wishes, too cute.


Cathy is stunning in her dress as she counts down the minutes on the clock!






Joe and Cathy, congratulations to you both, may your days be filled with much laughter and love!

15 Years

Today we celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary. Has it really been that long?

What a long journey the years have given us filled with many life lessons of humility, forgiveness, and sacrifice. May we have many more years together as we grow old gracefully.

Happy Anniversary to my husband, my hero, my best friend.

Heisler Park Laguna Beach Wedding | David and Becky

Doing a little blog catching up...

David and Becky were married this past summer at Heisler Park in Laguna Beach. The best part? Walking barefoot in the sand, feeling the soft breeze of the ocean while witnessing a union of the two coolest people ever.

Becky's spirited laughter and Dave's beaming grin were a sure sign of a love and affection that was long anticipated for this wonderful day and it was my pleasure to document it.

A swanky reception followed Becky and David's wedding ceremony at the Blue Laguna Restaurant and Lounge.
