There are two types of people in this world, those who are living it with you and those who make it worth living. We like to think of ourselves as the people who make it worth living. We dream big, love hard, and believe every moment is an opportunity to create a memory. This is how we approach couples...as living, breathing, feeling people who are just as passionate about their special day as we were our own....not as clients. It's for this reason we treat every single wedding we capture as if it is our very own.  We love to tell the story of love. That's why we chose to forgo the standard of naming your photo business after yourself and instead named it Be Authentic Photography, because we felt like it captured who we are and what we do better than just our names.

When we were invited to contribute to the Basic Invite Blog, one of the main questions they asked us to answer was, "what was your favorite wedding to shoot?" We don't have favorites as much as one that stands out to us.

I'm not one for quotes but I love this one because I don't really even believe in luck. I do believe that there are no rewards without hard work. If I work hard enough to find out if luck exists, I'll take all that I can get. I'm thrilled that at such a young age I have found and started my dream career. As a recent graduate from UC Davis with a degree in Design and Communication, I always knew I wanted to work in a creative field. A few years ago I began second shooting weddings and that led to me taking off on my own business venture and photographing weddings, seniors, families, lifestyle, events, camps, artwork, food - you name it. I really haven't said no to anything yet. It's the reason I love this field. There is a challenge around every corner, with every photoshoot and every subject, to give your work its own voice and individuality.

One of my favorite projects thus far was a lovely, leisurely engagement
