Hey Mendocino County!
I have a surprise proposal coming up next week, and I need an extra pair of hands to help me photograph & video the event! I’ve had people reach out in the past wanting to work with me- and now I wish I had made a list. So if you’ve ever wanted to photograph an event with me, please let me know! I’d love to hear from you. ❤️

This beautiful woman turns 20 today! It feels like I was just taking her senior photos for graduation, now she’s a college girl, seeing the world. I hope you have the best day Miss Laila! Thank you for letting me be your photographer, and trusting me in all of those wild locations. Totally worth it! Happy Days to you lovely girl. (Also, I had to include a photo of your beautiful mama with you… I love her so much!)

Would you like to work with me this year?
Would you like a complimentary gift certificate?

How long has it been since you had family photos taken? Updated headshot? Celebrating?

A few years ago I was invited to go to a women’s expo in Sonoma County. I had 500 gift certificates printed, and signed them all with $25 towards a session, and I also wrote “enjoy the women’s expo!” Out of 500 gift certificates, I have 21 left. I found them today in my office and thought- what if my favorite people would like one? So I’m gifting a gift certificate to anyone who writes to me and says they would like one! Yes, I will mail it to you!
This gift certificate is for $25 (or more, I saw a couple that said $50!) off any photography session with me. This can be used for a family session, senior grad session, proposal, wedding- you name it! I only have 21, so hurry and let me know if you’’d like one mailed to you!

Comment below, and I’ll let you know the next steps. This is a one time only offer, while supplies last.

Heading to the coast today to capture a surprise proposal- I’m so excited! We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful place. I hope the clouds today are as beautiful as they were for Michael & Gianna’s proposal in these photos. Here’s to hoping for the rain to hold, the ring to sparkle, and the bride to be to say yes! 💍

It's snowing here where I live, and I'm dreaming of those warm sun kissed days of Summer when I got to photograph this beautiful girl and her horse Pistol. I can't wait for days of golden grass and sunshine again. Thank you for modeling for me Savannah, it is such an honor to be your photographer! ❤ And thank you Red Barn Ranch Events for the gorgeous backdrop!

Happy Anniversary to Mr. & Mrs. Broin! Today we celebrate 10 years married for these two wonderful people. This was my very first wedding at Yokayo Ranch, and it’s amazing to look at how many changes they have made over the past decade. Not only was I the photographer (with Shailyn helping me), but I was also the florist that day as well. I loved Jenna’s choice in florals, and style. It was such a special day! Thank you Corey and Jenna for choosing me to be a part of your beautiful wedding and allowing me to celebrate with your friends and family! It was so fun going down memory lane today, seeing all of those smiling faces and remembering your wedding day.
