Full circle We photographed their wedding in Napa. I think it was 2008? Now look at them. Thank you, Morgan and Alex! Seeing you two again after all of these years and playing on the beach with your beautiful kids was the best. Morgan Hawley Ford #familygoals #lagunafamilyphotos

Here's an article about the "shot-list" we can agree with. "The bond between the couple and their photographer should always come down to trust" ... John and I take the time to understand our couple's priorities (and just as importantly what they don't want)! We love to hear about the plans and visualize the day and how the photographs will lay out. Planning ahead and keeping it simple is everything! From a venue walk thru to creating a photography timeline that works seamlessly with the event planners vision and carefree timing. This supports our ability to remain quietly present the day-of, aware of the nuance and fleeting moments we want to capture. Have questions? Reach out for a free consultation!

Alone in downtown L.A. The couple chose this horizontal image as the cover wrap for their wedding guest book. Looked great! #engagement2020 . . . .... . See more
