When Jessica and Nick traveled all the way from New Jersey to elope on California’s iconic Big Sur coast, they dreamed of sweeping ocean views, towering cliffs, and endless sunshine. But as fate would have it, their special day came with an unexpected twist: rain.

Some places are so magical, they seem made for love stories, and the Big Sur coast is one of them. For Londen and Craig, this iconic stretch of California coastline provided the perfect backdrop for their engagement session.

To say I am obsessed with this wedding day would be an understatement. I want to share with you an incredible experience I had the pleasure of being a part of: Shaneel and Gemi’s breathtaking coastal wedding at the Pacific House in the heart of Monterey, CA. As a wedding photographer and videographer, we had the honor of capturing their special day through both photographs and film.
