Of all the celebrities kicking the bucket, I never cared too much. Oftentimes, it’s just a good reminder to reflect on their work, listen to their songs, watch a film, or just enjoy what they’ve left behind…but we all know that Dolly had more to offer. Too big for this world. <3 RIP, Dolly

It’s not only an immense privilege and absolute joy to photograph the wedding of a close friend and colleague, but Aerin & Robin’s celebration was truly one of a kind. Every moment was filled with surprises, whimsy, and so much heart. I feel incredibly grateful to have witnessed—and documented—their love. 💕 I’m so proud of Robin for the journey they’ve been on since the day we met (I think they were 17!) and every day since. Inspirational. And Aerin is every bit as amazing ~ these two are an explosion of beautiful in all of the ways. Congratulations!

"Tonight isn`t about standing out from each other, it`s about standing alongside each other." 🤍
That`s exactly what Vibe After Five is all about.
An evening dedicated to bringing together the incredible wedding professionals of the Central Coast to connect, collaborate, and celebrate the community we`re fortunate to be a part of. From familiar faces to first-time attendees, every conversation helps strengthen this industry.
A huge thank you to everyone who made this year`s event possible and to everyone who came out to be part of it. Here`s to supporting one another, building new relationships, and continuing to grow together.
Until next year! ✨

Some weddings are just “the vibe” ~ I don’t even know why, but every frame from this wedding was glorious. Probably just a beautiful couple, a glorious day and some incredible views*
