As we look back on 2018, we are filled with so much gratitude in our hearts. We’re beyond grateful for every wedding, every newborn session, and every commercial client we’ve been given the opportunity to create a legacy for. Our deepest desire is that the footage we capture and the images we deliver will always remind our couples why they chose each other. That it would be a visual representation of the legacy of love they are creating for future generations.

Paul and Jessica were married in Jessica’s hometown in Northern California. For college these two both found themselves moving to Reno which is where their paths would cross. They were introduced by mutual friends that knew they were both from the Army brigade.
2018 has been such a big year for them. They both graduated from college, started their careers, got engaged, planned a wedding and are now married! Wow! That is no small feat for one year…but it just shows what amazing strength and community these two have rallying around them.

Spencer and Sarah met us in Dixon California for their engagement session at Sarah’s family’s property. The first ranch we took photos at was Sarah’s grandfather’s and the next was her cousin’s ranch. We love when couples utilize meaningful places for pictures such as family properties or significant locations to them. A big part of their relationship has taken place around the Agriculture community and we loved incorporating Sarah’s rich family history into this!

A few weeks ago Stephen and I were in Mendocino for a beautiful wedding on the coast at the Heritage House Resort. The wedding took place overlooking the cliffs and had the most spectacular views. Like most of our personal work, we only brought our medium format film camera. This time in particular, we chose only to shoot on our new Hasselblad so I could get used to using it faster for our newborn sessions. This camera is super fun as it’s all manual, has no batteries or anything. It shoots in a unique 6x6 square format which is fun and creatively challenging.
There are so many statements we could choose when talking about Petar and Hannah. Their wedding came together perfectly. They had an incredible dream team of vendors we love getting to work with here in Chico. The details were elegant with personal touches everywhere, remembering those who were in attendance, but those also who couldn’t physically be there

Kyle and Marek have a beautiful home here in Chico filled with personal touches everywhere you look. I love how they have photos throughout every season of their lives displayed on the walls like a walk down memory lane. I can just imagine as their kids grow, looking at those images as a reminder of the bond their family shares. Family heirlooms in the form of photos are everywhere you look. This is such a powerful representation of the legacy of love we fully believe in when we're working with these sweet families.

Family lifestyle photos have become sessions I look forward to. People open up their homes to us and we photograph them in the spaces they raise their little ones. Homes come in all shapes and sizes. Decoration styles vary and that's the beauty of shooting in people's home because it has their personal touches everywhere you look.
