When I am photographing weddings in Tahoe, I am reading! I love love love to read. You know that kid that goes to a buffet and their eyes are bigger than their stomach and gets way too much food?

What do you get when you have two photographers together to photograph a gorgeous couple in one of the most breathtaking places in the world? Well besides excellent photos, one hell of a time!

When I flew up to Canada, Danielle and traveled to a place that has been on our bucket list… Lake Louise! We also got some photographer dreams answered; to photograph an engagement session there at Lake Louise..
