When All You Need are the Memories - Monterey County Elopement Photographer

So you finally put a ring on it. Congratulations!

You and your honey are beyond happy! You're ecstatic to have made this commitment to each other and start planning your future together! But planning a big, traditional wedding... not so much. This day is about you and your honey, after all, not necessarily everyone else. The more you think about it, the more you want to just run off to Vegas and get this thing over with. Hey, there's nothing wrong with that! I'm a firm believer in doing what's best for you, regardless of other people's expectations.

Whether it's a small intimate ceremony with your parents and best friends as witnesses, or its only you looking into the eyes of your future husband or wife and promising yourself to them forever. Love is love, no matter how you decide to declare it. But what I feel pretty strongly on is that you must, must document this incredibly momentus day. Just because it's not a lavish affair doesn't mean you shouldn't have beautiful photographs to remember it by! No matter how big or small your wedding is, the one thing from the day that you'll be able keep forever are the the photographs. A professional photographer is simply a must!

These days I don't usually photograph big weddings. The all day affair with 100s of guests is not where I shine. I prefer to focus small: families and couples. But the heart of a wedding is really capturing the love between two people as they pledge their hearts to each other. And that is something I don't think I could ever get tired of! That's why I've decided to start offering small wedding photography packages especially for elopements and small intimate ceremonies. Just the two of you, your officiant, and your vows. In fact, I can even recommend a great officiant...

Instead of just a disc or flashdrive, all of my wedding packages will include a custom designed wedding album. These high quality books feature sturdy pages that lay flat, so you don't lose part of your image in that pesky crease!

If you're thinking about tying the knot without a lot of fanfare, contact me to see if I could be the one to capture the beauty of your special day. 

This gorgeous bride wanted to celebrate her love of color, so she dared not to wear white!
