Finch Arboretum is one of those spots that looks different every time I shoot there. Late May might be my favorite version of it. Olivia and Zaq’s engagement session on May 31st caught it at peak green — leaves fully out, a few trees still holding onto their blooms, and that late afternoon light filtering […]

Natalie wanted flowers everywhere for this session, and once I knew why, it made perfect sense: she and Caden are naming their daughter Violet.

Julia and A’lon brought the kind of energy to their Seabrook engagement session that makes photographing easy — small inside jokes flying back and forth, the two of them cracking each other up between every frame. Their personalities are big and silly and unmistakably theirs, and the beach at Pacific Glen gave us the soft […]
