Kristen and Steve chose the perfect spot to start their engagement session.  The light at Alice Keck park in Santa Barbara was amazing!  I love that Kristen’s parents also had their engagement session there as well. I’d love to see how the park has changed :)

After a few years away from Baxter, it was good to see Ingrid again!  I enjoyed meeting her family & shooting her portraits.  We met at the Santa Barbara courthouse & mission.  Two of my favorite locations.

Nadine & Michael are getting married in Hawaii but had a fabulous Santa Barbara engagement session!  Enjoy!

I was so excited to meet Polly & Chip for their engagement session! I was happy they brought their adorable puppy for the engagement session as well. She made the best prop ever! I’m looking forward to the wedding in San Diego!

This wedding album is designed as a 12×9 thick coffee table album.  I designed this one in particular to match their engagement album.  The two go perfectly together!  Alisa and Kelly got married at the Canary Hotel in Santa Barbara.  The groomsmen did some portraits at the Santa Barbara Mission and the girls went to the Santa Barbara Court House, Sunken Gardens.  The ceremony was on the rooftop of the Canary hotel and the view was amazing!  You could see all of downtown Santa Barbara and the artistic spanish tile roofs.  It was breathtaking!  We headed back over to the Sunken Gardens for family, bridal party and Alisa and Kelly’s portraits.  The Santa Barbara Court House is one of my favorite places to photograph.

I’m so excited about the sample engagement album that I’m about to order.  This engagement album is designed to be a sign-in book for the wedding. As you can see this album has tons of white space for fun and loving notes from all of your guests.  The album is going to be printed up as a coffee table album with really thick fine art matte paper.  The colors just pop out on this paper and the black and whites look so rich and warm.  I’m so in love with these albums.  And the best thing is you have a book to  remember your engagement pictures with lots of nice words from your family and friends.  This album will sit on your coffee table for years to come.

Check out the matching wedding album!

Here’s the fun cover!

Alisa and Kelly had their engagement sessions in Santa Babara.. one of my favorite places to shoot! Santa Barbara is just one of the most beautiful places ever. Combine that with two adorable people and you have some really cute engagement pictures! We started out at the Santa Barbara Mission and then worked our way down state street to the beach. Alisa and Kelly are such a fun couple. They danced on the train tracks and played a little soccer. My favorite was the picnic lunch with some vino :) Of course they shared! I can’t wait to shoot their wedding in September!

I love shooting in SB! I ws sooo excited when Jenny and Brian wanted to do their engagement session. Santa Barbara just has such a feel to it … it’s rustic yet luxurious at the same time. I drove up with Jenny and Brian and had so much fun chatting with them about their wedding. We started out at the Santa Barbara Mission. The light there was so amazing!
We had some fun times at the Santa Barbara Courthouse. Our last stop was the pier. The sunset was amazing. I think we timed the engagement session just right. Jenny and Brian were such a fun couple to shoot. It was a good way to spend a Sunday :)
