FAVORITE MOMENTS OF OUR 2018 WEDDING SEASON

Another wedding season down (number 9 to be exact!), which means it's time for another "Favorite Moments" post. This year was a fun one!! We went to Italy, Georgia, and Palm Springs for three beautiful weddings. I also photographed weddings for 3 fellow wedding photographers and 1 planner. It's always a honor to be asked to shoot a wedding for someone else in the wedding industry! We also traveled to Joshua Tree for my friend and fellow photographer Olivia's engagement session (her wedding to come in 2019). And lastly, Adam got a drone and we incorporated that into our videos! If you didn’t already know, we LOVE shooting together at weddings (photo + video), and we had so many together this year! In our personal life, we bought and fully renovated a 1970’s Aframe house on the Central Coast and found out we were pregnant with our baby boy, Fischer, due in March! It was a VERY busy year, but it was also one of the best!
