I love California. I spent a lot of time in San Francisco in my early twenties and by my mid-twenties I moved to Santa Monica. When I lived in Los Angeles I spent a handful of my weekends in San Diego. I feel like I have a strong connection to California and someday I plan to spend every January and February out there.  

I recently spent two weeks in California. I attended a photography workshop, saw friends, and spent time with family. I had the pleasure of doing a few styled photoshoots so I wanted to share my favorites with you.

I loved everything about this shoot. The whimsical flowy silk dresses, valor table clothes (SWOON!), gold tipped cutlery, colorful lush bouquets (with fruit!!!), the headpieces, and the two brides instead of a traditional wedding couple. I loved this shoot because I felt very connected to the entire vibe – the fashion, décor, and outdoor surroundings.
