Linzy & David ♥️ | Garden of the Gods

I was so excited when my friends Linz & David got engaged and asked me to do their photos at this stunning location. These two both have such kind and caring souls and are genuinely good people to their core.

I was so obsessed with Linz’s black dress with the red rock background, it was such a mystical Stevie Nicks vibes.

They brought their sweet boy, Rosco, and dressed him in a cute little tuxedo. Rosco’s sister, Riley, had just passed away before we took these. And I fully believe she is present in these photos through the light. The light is always shining on her brother Rosco, I think she was there as an angel, looking down on her family.

Ruby, the smallest but fiercest little baby, is a perfect addition to the their lives. Rosco passed not too long after these photos were taken. If you’ve ever lost a pet, you know it is like losing a piece of your family, a part of your soul, your reality and brain chemistry is changed forever.

I loved being able to capture these happy moments they had with him and to celebrate their life long journey together. I can’t wait to see the photos of their Hawaiian Elopement so soon! ♥️🌺

Rebecca & Jeremy | Colorado Farm Wedding

As Twenty One Pilots says “My Taste in Music is your Face”. That’s how I would summarize these two. Both music lovers, dogs lovers, and fantastic human beings.

My favorite part of weddings are the Vows and the Speeches. You can really tell what the couples relationship is and what their friends and family think of them. And these two were making me cry all day.

So much love for you guys! taken in Denver, Colorado by @stephmathenaphoto

Jason & Meghan | Big “Sur”prise Proposal

In April of 2025- my dear friend Jason asked me to come out to Big Sur to photograph him proposing to his girlfriend. Actually - he had really asked me an entire year in advance in 2024 :)

He and his girlfriend Meghan both ran the Big Sur Marathon. (They’re crazy!) Funnily enough though- they didn’t know each other when they ran the race…

Jason + Meghan actually met on the airplane going home from the race. Talking nonstop for hours. That’s what they call a “Meet Cute” in movie biz. 🎥🎬🍿

I thought it was so beautiful. That they were once strangers- running the same path. And the universe put them together to now be two people in love- forever on that same beautiful path.

The actual proposal took place at the lookout for Bixby Bridge- the iconic and historic 714 foot long bridge they ran across together- but separately.

I was able to capture the moment without Meghan seeing me (somehow he proposed at a time when no random people were around to photobomb.)

It was perfect and she was so shocked and shaking!

After the initial shock and the happiness at her new ROCK 💍 we went to Pfeiffer Beach- which literally made us feel like we were in a movie.

The fact that I never posted these of Chelsea + Zack’s wedding should be a crime.
