While I've been exploring along the Central Coast of California with my camera in hand for nearly 10 years, it wasn't until I began including people into the places I loved so much that my passion and perspective behind the lens changed. Now, I long to capture raw, timeless and emotive photographs with love, light and life behind them. 

Being newly married myself, I understand the tender hopes of a bride-to-be on her wedding day - realizing that those dreams and visions look differently for everyone. They did for me. I’m here to tell you that it’s ok to not fit inside the quintessential bridal ‘box’ - that your day can feel and be effortlessly, imperfectly and exquisitely you. I knew swiftly as my own wedding celebrations came to a close and my journey with my husband began, that this inner draw to love stories and my affinity for authentic wedding experiences would continue. I was captivated by the remarkable beauty of romance, and began to look through my lens in a whole new light.

hi, I'm Morgan

FILM & DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHER, TRAVELER, LOVER OF STYLE & INTERIORS

I relate to couples who relish in intimate occasions, opt for non-traditional touches and stray away from checklists for cherished, from-the-heart moments; never sacrificing a genuine glimpse of time for a staged, constructed experience. Your love story is anything but ordinary and your imagery should reflect that.

I know firsthand how important the fast, fleeting and heartfelt moments are. These are the quiet, untouched moments that mattered to me. I’m here to capture the laughs, the tears, the spilled champagne - the true essence of your day. 

When I'm not behind the lens of my camera, you can find me on the road with my husband Allen and our pup Butte, or simply discovering new recipes in my kitchen with a glass of wine in hand. While I'm a photographer by day, I also have a degree in marketing and a background in fashion, styling and production - meaning I love to curate props, style flat lays, design mood boards, offer wardrobe advice and more - serving as a resource and confidant for my couples every step of the way.

With an eye for natural aesthetic, contemporary design and a love for Mother Nature - I strive to weave a synchrony of inspiration into my captures that reflect a nostalgic, natural yet modern artistry. I yearn to document organic, soulful love stories with impeccable style - for couples who value artful, design-driven occasions, and above all - for those who find the most meaning in the moments-in-between.
