I’ll have more to share about these two lovely people when I post their entire santa barbara wedding in a couple of weeks. For now, here’s a little sneaky peeky from Heather & Chad’s Bacara Resort wedding!



Two of my favorite people in the whole world, Shariyah & Cameron, whose Santa Barbara Wedding I shot a few weeks back, are finalists in The Knot’s “Beautiful Love Stories” Contest. They’ve made it to the Top 5 Finalists out of nearly 3,000 entries! WOW!! Shariyah & Cameron are incredible people, and after you read their love story, you’ll know why! Check out their story at this link to The Knot, and if you’re moved by it, show some love and VOTE! I know you will be. I sure was! Shariyah & Cameron can receive a new vote from you everyday between now and October 7th. Let’s help ‘em win!! Congrats, Shariyah & Cameron. You deserve to win! You’ve got my vote!


I love it when two genuine, kind-hearted people find each other, and decide to spend their lives together. Not only are Crystal & Keith two of the kindest people I’ve ever met, but they have a circle of family & friends who share that same spirit. I knew this was going to be a great wedding after I met up with Crystal & Keith for their engagement session. Many of you know that I LOVE Santa Barbara weddings, and this one was no different! The day began with a beautiful ceremony at St. Raphael’s Catholic Church. I then had the opportunity to spend a little time with just Crystal & Keith. Santa Barbara has no shortage of great shooting spots, and we hit some of my faves! Their reception was held at the AMAZING Four Seasons Biltmore Santa Barbara. Thanks so much, Crystal & Keith, for a wonderful day and new friendships!

Be sure to let Crystal & Keith know what you think about their wedding pics!

Every wedding, I have the honor of shooting is another amazing opportunity to capture a new love story. Shariyah & Cameron have a very sweet, deeply spiritual love story, and their Santa Barbara wedding was a magnificent reflection of that. They traveled all the way from New Zealand to say their vows at the historic Unitarian Society of Santa Barbara. It was a rich & beautiful day, and an incredible reminder to all present of what marriage is really all about. Thank you Shariyah & Cameron, and your loving families, for allowing me to be a part of such an AMAZING day! Be sure to check out their amazing wedding Slideshow!

I’m sure Shariyah & Cameron would love to hear what you think (and I would too!). Feel free to leave comments….

Santa Barbara has to be one of my all-time favorite cities!! That’s one of the reasons I was REALLY looking forward to meeting up with Crystal & Keith for their engagement session in Downtown SB. Although Crystal is from Santa Barbara, they both flew in from different parts of the country for this shoot. What a super sweet couple! We had a great time together. Now I’m just that much more excited about their Santa Barbara wedding this summer!! Can’t wait to share….
