Sunrise Elopement Overlooking North Lake Tahoe

The California Coast – more specifically, Redwood National & State Parks – is one of the most magical places on earth, I’m convinced. From the obvious beauty of the Pacific Ocean, to the flora & fauna of the Northern Coast, and of course; the stunning and awe-inspiring presence of the Redwoods. 

When Mary & Collin reached out to inquire about a Redwoods National Park elopement, I was so excited for the chance to make their day come to life in a place that holds so much weight in my heart.
