{Kelsey and Scott} The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe

Kelsey and Scott’s wedding at The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe was elegant, beautiful, relaxed, and so much fun to photograph. Kelsey was gorgeous and the color palette of soft purples combined with the natural beauty of the Inn was perfect. Here is the all star line up of vendors and of course a few favorite images of the day….

What I’ve learned over 20 years is that every family has their own rhythm, and the best portraits come when I let that guide the session. If you’d like photos that feel like your family, let’s chat.

I’ve photographed in so many local spots—beaches, trails, fields, and in-home sessions. Each one tells a different story. If you’d like help choosing, let’s talk about it.

Your portraits should bring you back to the way it felt in that moment—not just the way it looked. If that’s the kind of memory you want, let’s work together.
