Shannon and Tom‘s Pismo Beach Wedding at Spyglass Inn was anything short of a dream. The elegance that they designed around their day was stunning. Getting married with the ocean at your backs, the sunset kissing the rolling hills as the sea spray rolls in that golden glow, standing hand in hand and surrounded by the people you love most and dear, and Shannon’s stunning fairytale dress — all of it was magical.

I love it when couples choose to get married in the place they yearn to return to again and again. The place that represents wanderlust, pure happiness, adventure and love. A place they want to bring their family to, a place they want to grow old with. And what is beautiful is they can.

My heart bursts when I think about these two. The love they have for each other and the beautiful families that weave around them — I know I say it often, but I am so grateful to have the chance to walk into people’s worlds, witness so much of who they are and those who helped them get there, it always leaves am imprint on my heart.

Shannon and Tom, thank you ever so dearly for letting Brian and I into your world and to capture this magnificent day. I will forever swoon over your photos and your love. And please, let’s make more beautiful photos in your happy place. xoxo
