Let me first just preface this by saying, I do not normally do engagement or wedding pictures. It’s just NOT my forte’! I know at least a dozen wedding photographers here in the valley, and any of them could rock a wedding better than I ever could. The thought of all that pressure of someone’s wedding day is enough to have me shaking in my boots!
But this was special. Because this was for my little sister.
And no, I am not shooting her wedding… I only have one sister and I plan on celebrating, toasting, laughing, eating and dancing my booty off that night with her. I want to celebrate and be in the moment with her. So she’s much better off leaving the photographic work to someone who knows what she is doing! And for those of you wondering, she has chosen an absolutely incredible photographer from Santa Barbara CA, named Christianne Taylor. I have been a big fan of Christianne’s work for a long time, and I still get giddy when I think about her being here to photograph Em’s wedding!
With that said~ I was honored when they asked if I would do some engagement pictures for them
. I could go on and on about my love for these two, and how much they mean to me… but I have to save something for my Maid of Honor speech![]()
In a few simple words- God designed them perfectly for each other.
I love them both, and can’t wait to see them joined in marriage…








































I love you guys!
And most importantly… from a very protective big sister… thank You Arece, for loving and taking care of my baby sister. I will be honored to call you my brother-in-law![]()
