An elegant
black tie wedding in Carmel, CA

Mary and Dylan's black tie wedding in Carmel, California was a stunning and elegant wedding day. They were surrounded by all of their closest friends and family on their rainy wedding day that ended with a gorgeous sunset just in time for their "just married" portraits before they enjoyed cocktail hour! Their wedding was a great representation of  documentary & timeless imagery.

Between the ocean views, coastal paths, and the way the light hits just before sunset, it’s one of my favorite places for engagement sessions. Mark and Chris were so easy to photograph.

Sometimes the best engagement sessions are the ones that don’t go according to plan. Jennifer and Eric’s session was originally set to take place at the Griffith Observatory.
