2017 was quite a year!! It consisted of bags always being packed because lots of traveling, ALL the weddings (11 of my own, 44 second shooting), adventurous and fun couples, new gear and too many memories to count! I photographed couples in Chicago, San Francisco, Napa, Oakland, New York and many more places. I visited Detroit for the first time and photographed a wedding for Swanky Fine Art Weddings. I traveled to Seattle with my family for the first time and photographed a sweet couple in Georgetown. I went to Ireland, England and France with my friends Adrian and Sheri and we were able to photograph some gorgeous couples in each country. I shot an elopement in Laguna Beach and we got drenched, including my gear, but we all survived. I'm excited for all the adventures to come in 2018 and can only hope they live up to this year's adventures!

Victoria + Sgt. Orozco: San Diego Military Homecoming

A MILITARY HOMECOMING

You can't help but love and get emotional during moments like this. There were so many people there and as soon as someone even got sight of a helicopter, the crowd started screaming and cheering - just thinking about it makes me get emotional. This was one of the most special days and moments I've photographed. Victoria had contacted me about a week prior and I was so thrilled to meet her and her kids. They were all so sweet and so fun to hang out with while we waited for her hubby's return. In the midst of all the excitement, I forgot to even ask what Sgt. Orozco looked like, so after formation was let go, I threw my camera up and was ready for Victoria to start running. I saw her face light up and I turned and saw him running! Enjoy!
