Laughter, Snuggles, Smiles, and LOVE....


Tara & Alex have become such dear friends since this session. What started as a fun, colorful shoot in Balboa Park turned into game nights, Renaissance fairs, and a friendship I truly cherish. These two are so full of joy, love, and energy—I’m beyond grateful that our paths crossed. Spending the day capturing their love was magic... but gaining their friendship was the real gift.


See for yourself—aren’t they the absolute cutest?
