Best of 2017 Portraits | Central Coast of California

January 18, 2018 By Michele 1 Comment

What a year!! 2017 took me all over California from private estates, to stunning properties and venues. Being able to live in San Luis Obispo is such an amazing opportunity. Each year I find new places to take pictures or host events. Venues like Oyster Ridge, The White Barn, and Oak Heart Estate provide romantic backdrops for weddings and events. My favorite locations for families are Talley Vineyards, the Monarch Butterfly Grove, the Arroyo Grande Village. This year I was blessed to witness countless special moments in people’s lives. Whether that be graduating high school or college, adopting a child, proposing to the love of your life, renewing your vows after five years of marriage, celebrating twelve years of wedded bliss in Maui, honeymooning on the Central Coast, and having all the family come into town to celebrate and create new memories. I can’t thank each and every one of my clients enough for trusting me with their images and their memories. I truly love what I do.

Now let’s go on adventure! Have an idea in mind for photos? Want to explore and bring us along for the fun? I’d love to hear all about it. Traveling to New York and Boston in the fall and would love to capture YOU!

So grab a cup of coffee or your favorite glass of wine. Enjoy lots of my favorites from all of my sessions this year!!

| 5 Engagements | 9 Seniors | 44 Families, Babies, and Baby Bumps | 1 Adoption Ceremony | 2 Proposals | 1 Vow Renewal | 1 Anniversary Shoot | 1 Honeymoon Session |
