Kaycie & Broderick,
I’ll admit it—you two are a few years my juniors (but hey, that’s on me 😉). With age, though, comes a bit of wisdom—or so I like to think. In this line of work, I get to witness a lot of love stories. And watching you two, it was undeniable: the love, the joy, the connection.
Thank you for trusting us to document your day—it was truly an honor. Wishing you a lifetime of belly laughs, quiet sunsets, and all the little moments that make love so worth it. 👢💍

Last night, as we attempted to climb a sycamore tree, we realized these boots are made for walking ONLY…go to the next aisle for the climbing boots.
Ride Ataxia SLO 🚴♀️🌊
Or as we like to call it: our college reunion.
A bunch of buddies—now a few years out of college—coming together for a good cause: @rideataxia. While he might be a bit of a Barney, it’s always easy to show up for Kyle Bryant: a fierce athlete, a constant source of motivation, and since our days at UC Davis, one of my closest friends.
Most of my greatest adventures started with one of his wild, bone-headed ideas—and he’s been dragging me along ever since: New Zealand, the Race Across America, countless Ride Ataxias… to name a few. I’d bet many of you reading this have your own story of how you know Kyle Bryant. 😉
This past weekend, friends and FAmily (pun intended!) showed up in Avila Beach for the 2nd annual Ride Ataxia Hometown event—a fun cruise down the Bob Jones Trail to support the Friedreich’s Ataxia Research Alliance (@curefa_org) 💙
The fundraising goal is BIG, and we’re almost there. If you’re able, please consider donating:
Short ride, big impact.
