Santa Barbara Courthouse Elopement

flying-2

So, funny story… Alizah + Nick booked me literally the day before their Santa Barbara Courthouse wedding! 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.

Downtown SLO Wedding at The Penny

Vineece & Kiyoji brought such radical authenticity and raw emotion to the table throughout their gorgeous wedding at The Penny in Downtown SLO. I loved every minute with these two, especially when we drove out to Madonna Mountain (or Cerro San Luis to true locals) for beautiful sunset portrait action. The unfiltered love these two share is so palpable in their final images, ahhh ~ can you feel it? <3

Katie & Sean ~ Tiber Canyon Ranch Wedding

Wow.

It’s been almost a year since I’ve made time for a blog post. Crazy. But what better way to re-enter the blog game than with another gorgeous Tiber Canyon Ranch wedding! Katie & Sean tied the knot at this epic venue in July and their day couldn’t have been more glorious, nor their smiles any bigger. These two brought the party and I’m so grateful to have been a part of the magical celebration! Allow yourself to live vicariously through the wedding with the photos below, and if you’re looking for coverage like this on your wedding day please don’t hesitate to reach out!

Special shout-out to Dylan Kyle Photography for helping out and providing me with a few of the photos here! You can find his work here: https://www.dylankylephotography.com/

With love,

James

Annika & James ~ Tiber Canyon Ranch Wedding

Still basking in the afterglow of this one. My first time shooting a wedding at the beautiful Tiber Canyon Ranch did not disappoint! Annika & James brought some Louisiana culture to our little California town with their special day, complete with a bluegrass band (look up The Big Decisions, they’re amazing!) and a second line parade to introduce the newlyweds! Had so much fun on this one, and I hope you can feel the love through their photos! Congrats to Mr. & Mrs. Dorman! 🙂
