Green Gables Wedding Photography | Kendall + Andrew

Green Gables is a historic Garden estate in North County that was absolutely perfect for Kendall and Andrew to celebrate their decision to marry and spend the rest of their lives together. After eight years together, this adorable couple was so excited to share their love and make this commitment in front of all their friends and family, it was truly special and I was honored to be part of it! Green Gables is so beautiful and unique, it is surrounded by Ivy covered Arbors, blooming rose gardens, trickling fountains, picturesque statuary, and thousands of bright twinkling lights. I love photographing weddings at this venue and I feel that the look and feel of the property was perfect for Kendall and Andrew’s wedding. I love so many of the photos, here are a few of my favorites!

Your photos shouldn’t just sit on a computer—they should live in albums, frames, and prints you see every day. If that sounds right to you, I’d love to help design it.
Being part of this community means I get to photograph people in the same places I grew up. That history makes each session even more special. If you’d like to create your own memories here, let’s connect.
My clients often say the hardest part was just reaching out—after that, I guide them through everything. If you’ve been thinking about photos, I’d love to make it easy for you.
When people ask what kind of portraits I do, the answer is simple: ones that show love, connection, and personality. If that’s what you want, I’d love to create it with you.
Every wall in your home tells a story. I’d love to help you design artwork that reflects the people you love most. If you’d like that, let’s start planning.
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.
