Serving wedding clients in Fair Oaks, Sacramento, Tahoe, on the Mendocino Coast, in the Napa & Sonoma wine country, throughout Northern California, and Beyond.

Offering you my 20 years of photographic experience and consummate professionalism, an open mind, a warm and unobtrusive presence, and a desire to collaborate artistically to create a body of work that captures the distinctive expression of who you are.

My experience has made me comfortable photographing all kinds of weddings, from formally orthodox to casually agnostic, candid and photojournalistic or composed and illuminated, dotcom millionaires in the most elegant hotels and barefoot hippies deep in ancient redwood groves. No matter the location or aesthetic, I embrace the unique qualities of each situation and work to capture the essence of the wedding day by focusing on the moments of intimacy, humor, and celebration, while avoiding the stiffness of traditional wedding photography.

You are in search of the ideal wedding photographer.  Someone professional and experienced with a distinctive artistic style and lots of beautiful photos.  But also someone good-natured and unobtrusive, a photographer with whom you will feel at ease, and who isn't going to dominate your celebration with their ego.  

You need a photographer who is eager to collaborate with you to record the unique essence of your event in a way that is natural and true, with just the right blend of creativity and humor and fine aesthetic sense.  

You want to find a photographer who you can trust to catch all the special candid moments and little details, to take gorgeous and flattering portraits, and to create a collection of images that tells the story and evokes the emotion of your wedding in a style both contemporary and timeless.

If this sounds like a reasonable description of what you are seeking, then allow me to offer you my services!

In addition to the creative and thorough documentation of your event in the highest-possible quality using professional Nikon equipment, all the resulting images are edited and individually color-corrected by me personally, with artistic modifications applied to some photos as inspiration strikes. Most of the photographs are rendered in color, but the option exists to have any image converted to black & white or sepia later if that look appeals to you.

Included in my services are the following features:

• Complete ownership of your images in the form of "digital negatives" (high-resolution jpeg files on an archival disc).
• One set of 4x6 proof prints of all the edited images.
• A personal online gallery at Pictage.com (where you, as well as friends and family, can view the photos, and order prints if desired).

Wedding photography services are offered at a rate of $350/hour (plus sales tax in California).

I also offer a wide variety of options for the presentation of your final images, including exquisite personally designed albums.

Please feel free to write or call with any questions.

I look forward to helping you realize your wedding vision.
