Alex & Greg

Vows on the bluff, a pup in a tux, and golden hour on the beach.

"She brings such great energy to everything she does and made us feel so comfortable behind the camera. Her work is incredible!"

Alexandra & Greg

Alex and Greg said "I do" on the bluffs at The Cliffs with the whole Pacific behind them. Their pup had his own little tux, the parasols were out, and golden hour on the beach was SO dreamy. Then everyone danced under the string lights all night long.
