A couple of weeks ago, my mom decided that she needed a vacation and we needed to visit my aunt in California. After some deliberation, she decided that we'd go to the Golden State and visit Carmel, Monterrey, and Big Sur before going back up to the San Francisco area.
The entire trip was absolutely amazing. I was able to visit some of the mot gorgeous places on the West Coast and was able to see family I hadn't seen in 15 years.
Even though the trip was only a couple of weeks ago, I'm ready to go back.

And now for the iPhone photos:





















A while back, I photographed Katy & Drew's engagement session at Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. One of the backdrops we used was the St. John's Episcopal Church Ruins Well, that session led Chris to me even BEFORE he proposed to Callie!
Callie and Chris met in Hawaii (where Callie now lives), but they have spent much of their relationship apart since Chris was stationed in Georgia. Ever since the possibility of becoming engaged, Callie wanted to have the engagement shoot in front of church ruins. This lead to asking around, lots of google searching, the proposal, and finally the shoot!
