Convict Lake Resort Wedding, Mammoth Lakes | Rebecca + Chip

One of my favorite places just outside Mammoth Lakes, Convict Lake Resort is a wonderful wedding venue with enough cabins for all the family and wedding guests! When Rebecca contacted me after seeing a previous Convict Lake wedding featured on Mountainside Brides’s wedding blog, I was so excited for the chance to shoot at Convict Lake again! This time I loved ducking into the grove of Aspen trees for the pre ceremony photos. The entire day was gorgeous, windy, and clear. I loved working with this entire family, it was the perfect fit and I am honored that they trusted me to capture this amazing wedding day! I can’t wait for the oppertunity to work in Mammoth Lakes again, such a lovely part of California!

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

I get it—being pregnant can feel overwhelming. You’re tired, you’ve got a million things on your list, and the thought of planning a photo session might feel like one more thing to manage.

That’s where I come in.

From helping you choose what to wear, to finding the perfect location, to guiding you through every pose—I’ve done this hundreds of times. You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just have to show up, and I’ll take care of the rest.

Because these months go by faster than you think. And when they’re gone, you’ll want to remember the way it felt to be here, waiting.

Just two people and a whole new chapter rolling in with the tide.
No shoes. No stress.
Just soaking it in before everything changes.

Still so new to the world, and yet already so full of soul.
It’s these tiny, unexpected moments that take my breath away.
Simple. Honest. Powerful.
No props. No posing. Just your baby—exactly as they are.

There’s nothing quite like those first days of motherhood.
The way she holds her baby close, still learning each other’s rhythms.
The quiet strength in her arms. The softness in her eyes.
It’s raw, overwhelming, beautiful.
And it passes faster than anyone warns you.
That’s why I keep things simple in the studio—so all the focus stays right here:
On the connection. The love. The beginning of it all.
