Katie + Larry {Avila Beach Wedding Photographer}


























As a wedding photographer, I get to meet a lot of people. I get to see the most intimate moments of the most intimate day of their lives. I still find myself in awe of the fact that someone chose me to document their Wedding day, because after the filet mignon has been eaten, the flowers wilted, and the decorations put away, what will be left are the photographs I take. So in addition to the details and the events taking place, I do my best to capture a key element of the day: The emotion. And with Katie and Larry's wedding day I definitely felt a lot of it. You'd think that after doing so many weddings I'd almost be immune to the cake being cut and the first kiss after the I do's, but during this beautiful beach front wedding I still found myself choking back tears as I saw two wonderful people committing themselves to one another. It was so beautiful and something I will never forget, and I am still in awe that they allowed me to share it with them.

Congratulations Katie and Larry, I'm so thrilled that you two are so happy and in love and I got to witness that.

Dustin + Janet: {Married}

When Janet emailed me asking if I could be the photographer at her sunset beach wedding she used the terms "not photogenic" when describing herself and her fiance. All week I was in anticipation to see what they would look like, and when I first walked through the bedroom door where she was getting ready last Saturday I walked in to find this:

Tan, super skinny, and flawless skin. Not photogenic? Nice try, Janet. You guys are total babes.

Oh, and did I mention the sunset beach wedding?

Yeah, everything about this wedding was my kind of wedding. From the open wound Janet had got because she went surfing that morning, to the grandmas that were getting down on the dance floor, to the groomsmen in tuxedo t-shirts, it just screamed laid back beach wedding. Great food, great company, and a fantastic looking couple made for a truely amazing Central Coast wedding.
