johh & christina
Columbia, South Carolina
Meet John and Christina Locke, a loving couple who met at work and have been inseparable ever since. Christina, looking to make a new friend, asked John what he enjoyed doing in his free time. He told her that he loved being outdoors and cooking, and promised to steal her heart with his delicious meals. A few months later, he made good on his promise and brought her an entire home-cooked meal of turkey, macaroni and cheese, sweet potatoes, and broccoli. It was love at first bite!
The couple tied the knot in a beautiful and spiritual ceremony in Columbia, South Carolina. Surrounded by their loved ones, John and Christina exchanged heartfelt vows and celebrated their love for each other. Their wedding was a truly special and meaningful occasion, and we are honored to have been a part of it. Thank you, John and Christina, for allowing us to capture the magic of your love story.

San Diego, California
Meet John and Rachel, a wonderful couple who recently tied the knot in an intimate and special small wedding at the Hotel Del Coronado. The ceremony, held on the beach with their family in attendance, was an amazing opportunity for me to work with them. As an officer in the Marine Corps, John was proudly supported by his loved ones on this special day.
In a stroke of luck, John and Rachel called me just the day before their wedding because they had a problem with their original photographer. I was fortunate to have availability and was able to step in and capture their special day through photos. It was an honor to be a part of such a memorable occasion and witness the love and joy that filled the air. Congratulations, John and Rachel, on your beautiful union!

ray & bia
Meet Ray and Bia, a couple whose love story is truly one-of-a-kind. They met in 2012 during high school in South Florida and quickly fell in love. Despite being separated for six years, their feelings for each other never wavered. Eventually, they found each other again and their connection was stronger than ever.
Their love has only grown stronger with time and, in December 2020, Ray surprised Bia with a magical proposal that captured the essence of their relationship. He wrote a script, animated characters, and even sought out the help of some incredible people to create an animated short of their story, which he projected in an intimate amphitheater during a camping trip in the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. It was the perfect proposal for the couple, who love movies, camping, and the desert, and were surrounded by their close friends from San Diego.
Ray and Bia's love story is truly a cinematic one, full of love, longing, and a happily ever after. We are so excited to see what the future holds for this amazing couple.

jared & catie
Costa Rica
Meet Jared and Catie, a couple whose love story began at a Christian speed dating event in San Diego, California. On February 13th, 2021, Jared walked into the event with very low expectations, having only attended to help with marketing. Catie, initially resistant to the idea of speed dating, eventually decided to give it a try after encouragement from friends and frustration with online dating.
During their 4-minute conversation, Jared and Catie realized they both attended Northern Arizona University and quickly hit it off. Despite getting multiple matches with other people, Catie knew there was something special about Jared.
In the early days of their relationship, Jared and Catie took things slow, focusing on getting to know each other and building a strong foundation. This "slow burn" paid off, as it became clear that their relationship was something special. In July 2021, Catie spent several days camping in the Sierra Nevada Mountains with Jared's family, and it was on this trip that Jared realized he was falling for her. In September of that year, Jared told Catie he loved her for the first time while looking up at the stars.
Several months and trips later, Jared proposed to Catie on their dream trip to Costa Rica. The time spent in Costa Rica was magical, and Jared planned an amazing beach day to propose on a hidden beach.
