let me tell your story…
behind the lens
MEET WILLOW – YOUR SANTA CRUZ PHOTOGRAPHER
I capture heartfelt weddings and lifestyle portraits throughout Santa Cruz and the surrounding area.
My faith in God and my family is everything to me… my purpose, my heart, my whole world! If I’m not spending time with my kids, my husband and I will be in the mountains or the desert. I’m passionate about exploring this amazing planet and always down for an adventure… boondocking, hiking, paddle boarding. Simple things bring me joy – a wildflower, beautiful words, collecting rocks, sounds of rivers, light rays and layered mountain ranges – they feed my soul!
I will forever be crying during your vows, barely staying still on the edge of your dance floor, and appreciating all the beautiful thoughtful details that show me who you are… dragging you out to chase some magical light! If we aren’t already, we will probably be friends by the end of the day… I love that I get to follow my couples through this beautiful life and document all the big moments. I am so blessed to be able to do what I love!
let’s create something you’ll
always want to remember
I want to tell your story in a way that captures the feelings and emotions and everything that makes you you… the looks, the touches, the shared laughter, the hugs of your most treasured family and friends… People are so amazing and although we are all perfectly imperfect in some way, we have so much beauty inside and out. Time is flying by, but if I can catch these moments and preserve them, when your memories fade, your photos can bring you back to feeling the feels all over again.
Tell me a little about you, what you’re celebrating, and what you hope to remember about this season of life. I can’t wait to hear your story and dream up something beautiful together.
