The Pismo Beach sand dunes are such a beautiful, unique location so close to the Central Valley. I love that I was able to start this session off at the Dunes and end it on the beach. I had been dreaming about shooting at the Pismo Beach Dunes for a while, to be honest even […]

Diego and Jessi got married at the beautiful Chapel on the Hill just outside of Paso Robles in Shandon. This gorgeous Chapel sits up top a hill (hence the name) looking over picture-perfect vineyards and rolling golden hills. There is a small winding road that leads up to the back of the church and a walkway that leads you through the vineyards and up the hill towards the Chapel. I think you would be hard-pressed to find a more beautiful location for a Chapel in California.
