Rancho Valencia Resort Wedding Photography | Alison + Kelly

Vallentyne-Photography_1432.jpg

I love working with Susanne Duffy of Crown Weddings and this Rancho Valencia Resort wedding was no exception! Every detail was unique and I love how the entire wedding really reflected the bride and groom’s unique style and personality.

It was so much fun to work with Alison and Kelly on both their engagement and wedding photos…and also so wonderful to see Alison’s cute little baby bump on the wedding day! Of course she looked just as amazing as ever and I am so happy for the expansion of their little family! I can’t wait for family portraits in the future- congrats you two!

Here are a few of my favorite images….feel free to pin or leave a comment, we’d love to hear from you!

Photography isn’t just my career—it’s been my life’s work for more than 20 years. Each session still excites me, and I’d love to bring that passion to your portraits too.

Some of the best photos happen when nothing goes to plan—kids running, wind in the hair, real life unfolding. That’s where the beauty is. If that sounds like your family, I’d love to photograph you.
Full-service photography means I don’t stop at taking pictures—I help you design wall art, albums, and keepsakes you’ll treasure for a lifetime. If you’d like that kind of support, I’d love to work with you.
I’ve worked with families for generations—sometimes photographing the same people from engagement through grandchildren. It’s an incredible privilege. If you’d like a long-term photographer for your family, let’s connect.
Every family is unique, and that’s what I love capturing—the real connection, laughter, and personality that make you who you are. If that’s what you want in your portraits, let’s plan something together.
Being born and raised here means I know this area better than anyone—I’ve discovered hidden gems that make for the most beautiful portraits. Want me to share them with you? Send me a message.
