LAUREN & BEN

“Ben and Lauren are so gifted at inviting others into their lives, where even the walls of strangers fall down. I wanted to do the same for them — to provide a place where they could be fully present & fully authentic.”

APRIL 2018 — BIG SUR, ca

This adventurous bridal session of Ben and Lauren helped define who I wanted to photograph and why. I was on a vision trip to California before officially moving here and have known these two for quite some time. Lauren and Ben are unbelievably hospitable and warm, having them in front of my lens was pure gold. I wanted them to be on the coast of Big Sur, not only because of the beautiful landscape, but because I knew they could really play, hang out, and soak in this irreplaceable time.
