The Details

Couple: Raya & Dean
Venue: Araceli Lavender Farm – Dixon, CA
Guest Count: ~100
Memorable touch: Raya sewed two gorgeous wedding signs for their special day!

Raya and I first met in military training in Tampa, FL. We eventually became roommates in California and trauma-bonded as nurses during COVID. When she asked me to be her wedding photographer years later, I was so stoked! 

What started as an innocent crush on the neighbor boy soon turned into the love of a lifetime. I was privileged to watch it all unfold while I lived with Raya in Davis, CA. Whether they’re surfing, camping, riding bikes, or cooking together, these two do life side-by-side in the best way. 

They tied the knot on a warm May day at Araceli Lavender Farm in Dixon, surrounded by wildflowers and a hundred of their favorite people.

Cheers to Raya & Dean!
