This was a really cool shoot because Monique is my friend and co-worker. She gave me authority to do whatever I wanted during the shoot! We hit a lot of different locations - Marina, Pfieffer Beach, and the Big Sur Redwoods. I did a few different styles of lighting and post processing. I'm pretty happy with the end result. Enjoy!

I love getting to work with the bride and groom before the wedding! This session was especially fun because Lauren and Michael are an awesome couple! Down to earth, in love, and like to joke around. I was meant to be their photographer because Lauren went to The Ohio State University and is a Buckeye, and I don't meet to many other OSU fans being in California. Did I mention that my dad is from Ohio and I use to spend summers there as a kid!? We went everywhere for this shoot. We started at the Monterey Wharf, then Asilomar Beach, Pebble Beach Forest, and ended up on Cannery Row. Enjoy!
