Jonathan and Bethany Anniversary (Flagstaff, AZ)

Jonathan and Bethany just celebrated four years of marriage and I had so much fun working with this sweet couple. They were willing to try any thing and go any where when I asked and I love how much creativity they brought to the shoot, a photographer's dream!

Wednesday Portraits

Wednesday is one of the prettiest girls I've ever met, inside and out.  This girl exudes kindness and I had so much fun spending time with her on the beach!  She was such a trooper walk down Torrey Pines State Reserve and back up the mountain and she did it all bare foot.  I loved working with her because she didn't hesitate once when I wanted to try something and even offered to go further into the freezing Pacific water, what a dream she was to work with.  She's actually a photographer herself and you can check out some of her work at http://wednesdayfoley.tumblr.com/.

  

Inspiration

So much of what inspires me, I find in nature.  One of my all time favorite places to visit on a beach day is the Self Realization Meditation Gardens in Encinitas, overlooking the Pacific Ocean.  We recently had friends visit us and I knew they would have an appreciation for the beauty of this place.  Well, we all ended up geeking out with our cameras for a good hour so I thought I would share some of the inspiration San Diego has given me for my shoots.
