This Gardens at Heather Farm wedding is so special because it took place (not only in the middle of the pandemic), but on Amanda and Ben’s 11th (!!! yes, I know !!!) anniversary. Amanda and I were on the phone together at least once a week, talking as we schemed and planned about how to […]
Wedding planning – ah!! What can I say? I can’t speak for the entire world, but if I could, I think I’d say that collectively we’re so sick and tired of being in quarantine and pausing our living indefinitely since we don’t know when all of this COVID-19 business is going to end. It’s […]
As a Bay Area wedding photographer, intimate backyard weddings have become one of my favorite things. Especially with all of the rescheduled weddings from earlier this year, it makes me SO happy that some people are choosing to get married still in 2020, including Lacey and Aaron. Their precious micro-wedding was somewhere between an elopement […]

With so much pain and suffering impacting the Black community, and our communities of color around the country, Paige Vaughn Photo is committed to doing it’s part to stop the systemic injustices that face our non-white brothers and sisters (and those who identify with no single gender – of course). Even though I will begin […]
Couples with weddings planned this season have some tough decisions to make and my heart goes out to them. Tying the knot is such an exciting experience that the idea of postponing your wedding can be a huge disappointment. Because of government restrictions around gatherings due to the COVID-19 / coronavirus pandemic and, of course, […]
Hands down, one of the best things about being a Bay Area wedding photographer is being able to shoot at the stunning outdoor wedding venues that decorate the region.
