Until then, a few decorations from our California Christmas. I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! John and I spent our week in Dallas with his family where I successfully made my first pumpkin pie and lattice cherry pie! There were some tears and a few batches of dough thrown in the trash, but alas […]
Good morning! Happy Thursday! Today we start the second part of Paige & Clayton’s wedding with the entrances to their reception. Some of the best wedding party entrances I’ve seen yet!

To be the one who says, “This moment stays,” is one of the greatest honors of my life. I’m René, and I create images that are romantic, timeless, enduring, and authentic. My work is unhurried and intentional, meant to be returned to again and again, like photographs tucked into a grandmother’s cedar chest, preserving your family’s story and legacy. I’m deeply passionate about honoring both the legacy you’re building and the one you’re already part of, and my hope is that the images we create together are cherished for generations to come.
