Santa Barbara Courthouse Elopement

So, funny story… Alizah + Nick booked me literally the day before their Santa Barbara Courthouse Elopement! Things fell through with their original photographer, but with a stroke of luck I was available to capture their special day, and wow…how special things turned out to be. We had perfect weather and lighting conditions at the courthouse, and although I wasn’t able to capture the ceremony due to pandemic restrictions, we were able to make use of the gorgeous greenery outside for family portraits and their first look! We then took to Hendrys Beach for the final portion of our session with the most beautiful sunset I’ve seen in a long time. Simply perfect. So much gratitude. <3
