D + C: Hyatt Carmel Highlands Wedding

What do you do when you want to have an intimate ceremony and an adventurous elopement in Big Sur? Do it all in one day! D + C imagined a sunset ceremony with just their family overlooking the Pacific Ocean, so I took them adventuring before their ceremony at the Hyatt Carmel Highlands. I asked her how adventurous she wanted to be, and she said she was down to get the dress dirty. You got it girl! (But don’t worry, you can’t even tell it got dirty from the gorgeous ceremony shot on the gazebo). They spent the rest of the evening dancing the night away with their loved ones at a beautiful reception (all of which was handmade by the bride's mom - the floral arrangements, agate placecards, and prints of Big Sur!) Check out the rest of their Hyatt Carmel Highlands wedding below!

Amazingly talented photographer who has mastered her craft!

Dare I say book your wedding around her availability (haha)! Her photos are next level and she is truly an artist. From the start, she is professional and through with communication (phone, text, email…) and has easy to access portals to ensure we were on the same page with timing, locations, vibe, etc. On the big day she was a pleasure to work with! She’s kind, relaxed and makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera. There was a hiccup in plans and she rearranged on the spot, with no hesitation. She never felt intrusive, or invasive or in your face at any moment- which was a topic of conversation for guests at the wedding that I didn’t expect. Just another example of Lynn’s professionalism. The DAY AFTER she sent over a teaser album that is magical :) everyone is in awe when they see the photos because they truly are spectacular! Conclusion: WORK WITH LYNN! You will not regret it. Photos last forever. -D+C
