I met Raymund through my dad. Raymund’s dad was working for my dad’s company at the time and came over for a Bbq for my sisters birthday. At that time I was in a relationship but my parents didn’t approve of him. It was also an unhealthy relationship. After that first meeting Ray was suppose to go back to the Philippines and go to college there, but he ended up staying here to help his dad. He started working part time for my dad’s company and within that process, he asked my dad for my phone number and my dad gave it to him. My dad called me right away and told me to answer my phone when someone calls. That night, he called and we started talking and getting to know each other. After a few weeks of just talking on the phone and texting, my family and I went on vacation for a month. While I was away, he still found ways to keep in contact with me via email, text message and myspace (LOL). During the time that I was on vacation with my family, I was already single. My ex-boyfriend and I had already broken up before I left. When I came back from my vacation with my family, we went out our first date. Ever since then we have been inseparable. We went to college and took almost the same classes together. We’ve had our shares of ups and downs but at the end of the day, I would never change anything in past that we have been through, because those are the reasons why our love and respect for one another will never be broken. We have now been together for 10 years and finally, we both decided that we are ready to take the step. He first asked for my parents blessing and as soon as he got the approval, our secret engagement has now become official. I was able to wear my ring and tell everyone about it and our wedding plans.


Karen & Jay reside in beautiful Sydney Australia. These two decided to travel the distance to Los Angeles to hire Sun & Sparrow to shoot their engagement photos. We are so happy to be a part of their rustic destination engagement in Palos verdes!

I love a good bridesmaids reveal. Unfortunately, it doesn`t happen every wedding... BUT if the timing is right and the setup favors a moment like this, the bridesmaids showing their truest emotions, it never disappoints. Look at all these reactions right at the peak of anticipation! Can you imagine starting your day with this kind of encouragement? Gawd, its the best.

Gosh its been a while since I have gotten to put together a proper Flaylay. Coming from a wedding photographer, seems that a lot of couples are recently opting out of these precious little setups and allotting time towards other things like mingling at cocktail hour and late night photos. It makes so much sense to me that (if they were pitted against the choice) anyone would choose to spend time on their precious day with people that traversed from out of town to celebrate with them. But selfishly, I wish they might add time or sneak in some way to include flatlays like these. In any case, I love how my clients choose to spend their time and love their people, their wedding day, and the moments that fly by with haste. THOUGH, I would never want to convince someone to give up any of those warm memories for a more decorative moment. BUT... if we can add it in, then I will absolutely be all over styling these shots faster than you can say please.

I need this wedding to take up more space on my grid, because it was just phenomenal. Cape Horn Estate SCREAMED of natural beauty and incredible landscaping with the mountain view of the Columbia Gorge and the brilliant florals that surrounded the entire property. It is unmatched with its unique and jaw-dropping scenes.
But far past the beauty of the estate, MacKenzie and Dan just shined with their love for each other and their family&friends all day long. Their focus was on the beauty if the environment and their love for adventure.
Minus the sunburn, I would do it ALL over again just to rewatch their unhindered joy shine everywhere.
