Microwedding Amidst the Redwoods
There’s something incredibly magical about saying “I do” surrounded by nature, especially when it’s a microwedding nestled in the heart of the Redwoods. This was the dream setting for Stephen and Jenny’s fall wedding at the Secret Gardens, a day defined by intimacy, close bonds, and the serene beauty of the natural world.
13 Guest Wedding at Secret Gardens
With just 13 of their closest friends in attendance, Stephen and Jenny’s wedding was the epitome of a close-knit celebration. The towering Redwoods and the lush greenery of the Secret Gardens provided a breathtaking backdrop, making their vows even more poignant. Fall, with its rich colors and crisp air, added an extra layer of warmth and charm to the occasion.
Their ceremony was a testament to the beauty of simplicity. There were no grand fanfares, just the genuine expressions of love and commitment. This intimate gathering under the Redwoods was a heartwarming sight, encapsulating the essence of what a microwedding is all about – focusing on the couple and the joy of their union.
An Evening of Warmth and Celebration
Post-ceremony, the celebration transitioned into an intimate dinner. Imagine a small, elegant setup under the open sky, as the leaves of the Redwoods rustled softly overhead. The dinner, filled with laughter, heartfelt conversations, and exquisite dishes, felt like a family gathering where every person played a significant part in Stephen and Jenny’s journey.
But it wasn’t just the formal moments that made their wedding special. The parking lot turned into an impromptu celebration space, with drinks being shared and champagne toasts ringing out in honor of the newlyweds. These spontaneous moments of joy, often overlooked in larger weddings, became the highlights of Stephen and Jenny’s celebration.

Wedding days end, newborns become toddlers, and parents become grandparents. These moments go by so fast. You deserve to live fully in them, to be present, and then relive them through imagery that tells your story. Photography is more than just a picture, it’s a way to document your history. These are the good old days. Let me help you remember them.

Let's Connect
Photographer, dog mom, book hoarder, and Trader Joe’s loyalist. I’m a Pisces, an ENFJ, and an Enneagram 3, which basically means I feel everything, care deeply, and always have a running to-do list (with color coding).
These days, I’m also figuring out life as a new mom — balancing baby snuggles with camera gear and reminding myself to slow down and soak it all in. I’ve built a career out of noticing the details, chasing the light, and turning everyday moments into art.
