Elopements & Intimate Celebrations

Santa Cruz is a dream destination for couples seeking something intimate, adventurous, and breathtaking. As a Santa Cruz elopement photographer, I help couples plan and capture unforgettable small celebrations.

• Destination Elopement in Santa Cruz – Whether on the cliffs of Davenport, the redwood forests, or a hidden cove, I know the perfect spots for epic vows.

• Intimate Celebration Photography – For couples who prefer meaningful gatherings with just close family and friends.

• Coastal Proposal Photography – Planning to pop the question by the ocean? I’ll capture the surprise, the joy, and the moment you’ll never forget.

Engagement & Couples Photography

Celebrate your love story with a session that feels true to you. My engagement photo sessions in Santa Cruz are relaxed, fun, and full of laughter. Real emotions, not forced poses.

Family & Lifestyle Sessions

Life moves fast, but photos keep the memories alive. My portrait sessions are all about capturing your family’s personality and love.

• Family Portraits – Playful, genuine moments that reflect who you are together.

• Maternity Sessions – Celebrate the beauty of pregnancy with soft, intimate portraits.
