YAY! I am so glad you want to get to know me
I want to get to know you too!
Hey friend! I'm Sheryl! I live in San Diego, California!
My husband and best friend in the whole world is John. We've been together for over 11 years and we love traveling and living life together! We are dog parents to our huskies, Kaia & Nova, and we love them so much (even if every corner in our home is covered in their fur)!
Although I picked up my first professional camera in 2018, my love for photography dates back to when I was a little girl. Capturing moments has always been a big part of my life thanks to my parents! They always had a camera at the ready to capture moments of me & my sisters, and it taught me that every moment is fleeting, precious, and worth capturing. Looking back at our photos, I am reminded of the power of these memories. Photographs serve as reminders that we can relive and pass down to future generations the love and joy we experienced. These moments are proof that we made an impact on this world and that our lives are worth remembering.
I believe that couples should have the freedom to celebrate their love in a way that truly reflects their personalities and relationships, and this is why I love doing what I do!
After I photographed my first elopement, I discovered my true calling and decided to focus my art on capturing intimate weddings and elopements.
I was approached by a couple who asked me to help them plan and photograph their special day doing the things they love most, with a few of their closest loved ones accompanying them on their adventure. It was a beautiful and breathtaking experience to witness them focus only on each other, surrounded by the most stunning views, hiking, and exploring with their family.
This experience inspired me to empower other couples to have similar adventure experiences for their elopement and to help them plan a day that truly reflects their relationship instead of feeling obligated to follow traditional wedding expectations that often cause stress and anxiety. By providing personalized planning, timeline creation and management, permit assistance, and location scouting, while using creative imagery through GIFs and drone shots, I want to help my couples have the most incredible elopement experience in whatever epic destination they choose!
If we're going to be friends then you should know these fun facts about me!

"Sheryl is the absolute best! She has great upbeat energy yet makes you feel calm and confident during the photoshoot. She is the perfect combo of hype and grace. We were both so nervous to be in front of the camera, but Sheryl provided great suggestions for poses and movement. Eventually, we became so comfortable that she captured some of the most candid moments that didn’t feel forced. We both were so happy with how natural and candid the pictures turned out. Sheryl captured such beautiful memories that we are going to cherish for a lifetime. Her pictures stand out because it feels so organic and her editing is timeless. We are so grateful for Sheryl and her photography skills!"

"I could try to describe how wonderful Sheryl is as a photographer both artistically as well as personally, but I don’t think I command enough mastery of the English language to do her and the magic she creates with her camera justice. Sheryl is an artist and a savant at that. She is to the digital photograph what Saragent is to the canvas, in addition to being a genuinely pleasant, incredibly kind, and unbelievably thoughtful person to work with."

"I could not recommend Sheryl enough!! Me and my husband were so nervous to have our photos done because of how awkward we can be, but Sheryl made us feel so comfortable and gave us prompts that were so fun! She has the best energy & her excitement and passion for photography is so amazing to work with. We are so grateful we had the opportunity to meet and work with her, and can’t wait to reach out to her for future photos! If you are looking for a sign to book her, this is it!!"
