We’ve been nominated for California Wedding Day Magazine’s ‘Best of’ in San Diego for Wedding Photography. Living in Southern California is a dream come true and although it’s only been 2 years here, we feel so loved and welcomed by the wedding community. Stepping out into a new market can be tough, especially when your business is 11 years old! Thank you to all of the vendors that have turned into friends. We’ll never tire of shooting weddings up and down this beautiful coastline. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photo by us @purasoulphoto Venue @delcoronado Planner @monarchweddings Florist @parkerandposies Scans @goodmanfilmlab #purasoulphoto #sandiegoweddings #cwdbestof2019 #cwd #ocweddingphotographer #hoteldelcoronadowedding #hoteldelcoronado

On the night of their engagement, Eddie and Gillian were celebrating at home when they heard a tap tap tap on the glass doors of their waterfront Miami home. They thought maybe it was a special delivery from a friend congratulating them but when they approached the door they didn’t see anyone. Quickly they noticed it was a crab tapping on the glass. Legend has it that when a crab knocks on your door it’s a sign of protection and good fortune. Swipe left to see how our clients incorporated this omen into their letterpress wedding invitation suite.

Architecture informs how we shoot and how we approach urban weddings and portraits. Skylar studied art history and architecture in college and it’s definitely an anchor point for much of our work. The hard or soft lines of a building can set up a frame so nicely. The moorish architecture at Aly’s Beach is no different. We welcome any and all wedding bookings in Alys Beach, Florida.

Update! As of 4/13/19 they’re back! The posts were gone for just over 2 days. ___ Hundreds of our @instagram posts and Stories were removed from our account last night. We can still access our account just fine and we didn’t lose anything but content. We’re guessing we were hacked, maybe partially hacked? Or that it’s a glitch. Hoping it’s a glitch. It happened right after I entered my cell phone number as prompted through the @Instagram app for security reasons. We have reported it, we have two-way security turned on, and we have spoken with knowledgable friends who work in the space. Something we read on Reddit makes us believe it was temporary so we’re hopeful. The team at @jumper_media told is it could take up to two weeks for our account content to be re-indexed through IG. 👍🏻 Of course we have all of the missing images saved onto hard drives (it’s our job to save all of these images safely) but we lost the captions and the Stories that went with them. If we don’t get it back, it’ll be the thoughtful messages, little videos, and moments that we’ll miss the most. Thank you for your concern and your thoughts. This is a great reminder to live presently and to make all life and business connections and memories offline. :) #purasoulphoto #disappearingposts #instagramglitch #bahamasweddingphotographer

T-4 days until we head on an adventure of a lifetime rafting down the Grand Canyon. I mentioned in Stories yesterday that I still can’t believe Robyn & Devin won the permit lottery and this is really happening. There will be 16 of us total in the group. We’re rafting as a team and hired an outfitter to help us with food, supplies, sleeping arrangements, etc. Devin and I will be together in one large raft/boat and our “boatman” will have the oars and row it for us. 6 boats in total and 1 safety kayaker. Apparently, there is a rapid called Lava Falls that’s supposed to be terrifying and thrilling. I’ll take all the prayers and emotional support as I put one foot in front of the other and take it day by day. 3 weeks is a long time to be outside (for me, not for Devin)! Until then, I’m relaxing in the beauty that is Rachael’s bouquet from her recent flower workshop in San Diego last month. She is a floral goddess with a humble heart.
