HI, I’M TAY
It all started with an old Nikon camera, and a love for beautiful people and the way they fall in love.
What initially drew me to photography was the way people fell in love, the story that came with it, and the genuine connection between the couple that I got to witness; it’s precious, exciting, and effortless.
A LUXURY CALIFORNIA WEDDING & FINE ART FILM PHOTOGRAPHER
An extroverted, tequila loving, bulldog obsessed summer girl at heart with a deep love for new places and faces.
If you feel that your love story is best told in a place that is significant to your story, or somewhere you’ve longed to explore together, I would love to meet you there to document it.
BUT WILL TRAVEL ANYWHERE FOR LOVE
behind the Camera
I am a film and digital wedding photographer who is passionate about capturing your authentic love stories - joyfully, uniquely, and heartfelt.
I discovered my love for photography over a decade ago while interning in rural Haiti. I spent my highschool and early college years traveling to orphanages and medical clinics within Central America, and the Caribbean. I would then go on to study Criminology at ASU before following this calling of mine. It was an unexpected and divine encounter that ultimately changed the trajectory of my life and career. I haven't been able to put my camera down since.
If you know me, you know that I laugh far too often, and sometimes way too loud. I love trying new food and tequila, and I’m always trying to get outside. You can find me capturing the most stunning weddings and intimate love stories all along the West Coast. When I’m not taking photos or working on the back end of my business, I’m most likely spending time with my husband or window shopping with my girlfriends. I strive to be truly present each day, slow down and enjoy the little things in life.
THE RUNDOWN
"I believe in creating heirlooms that will be left behind for generations to come."
When it comes to capturing your love story, the more relaxed you both are the more your love story will be genuinely captured. I will lead you with prompts instead of poses so you will be able to interact with your significant other and enjoy every little moment.
What I'm
loving
European architecture that can take your breath away! I am truly blown away by the many sights we cherish today that have survived global wars, domestic turmoil and empire rule. They are some of the most beautiful pieces of art that tell us so much history.

learning
As a business owner I am always investing time and money to learn and grow within my business in the most rewarding ways possible. I am currently enrolled in a program directed by one of my dream photographers! This has been such a season of growth, new beginnings and being stretched beyond my comfort zone.
What I'm
not about
I am never wanting you and your honey to feel stiff and uncomfortable! Whether we are shooting your engagement photos, or the day of your wedding, I want you to feel present and relaxed.
what I
believe
I believe in creating heirlooms that will be left behind for generations to come. I strive to capture moments that are candid, heartfelt and authentic to your love story to relieve time, and time again.
