Sasha and Ryan, San Luis Obispo, CA

Sasha and Ryan showed me around Shelter Cove beach in Pismo Beach for their engagement photos. I never even knew it existed, but it's actually a pretty big beach with nice steps leading down to it and all. We were also going to shoot around Tolosa winery, but ended up arriving after they'd closed. On the way there I spotted a super rad green field with lots of trees, and we passed it going back right as the sun was setting over the hills so of course we had to stop and take a few photos there!













Ryan is very good at skipping. Rocks.

Joe and Karen, San Luis Obispo, CA

Joe and Karen and I met in Shell beach for their engagement session, and ended up shooting near Avila Beach and in Pismo Beach State Campground. Their wedding is NEXT MONTH (woohoo!) at a gazebo on a cliff overlooking the ocean. They were super easy to shoot - I'd be getting my camera set up, and I'd look up and they'd already be snuggling and looking awesome. Great hanging out! :)

Cameron's first time on the swingset

Avila beach swings + happy baby = lots of fun.

Lauren and Ralph, San Luis Obispo, CA

Lauren, Ralph, and I lucked into an amazingly beautiful day in See Canyon and Edna Valley (San Luis Obispo) for their engagement photos. The apple trees are just starting to bloom, the grass is green, and the central coast is really an amazing place right now.

Lauren and Ralph were very easy in front of the camera - visibly in love. A great couple to spend an afternoon with. :)

The Kienows, Avila Beach, CA

We went for a little family walk at Avila beach this afternoon. It was really warm, and the clouds were super cool, and the surf was really small and was making little pools on the beach that were calm enough for Cameron to check out. This may have been his first experience with sand, I'm not sure. In any case, he likes how it tastes.
