San Francisco Bay Area wedding photographers
We are Helena and Laurent, a Marin-based photography team working across San Francisco, the North Bay, East Bay, coast, redwoods, and Wine Country. We photograph candidly, use editorial direction when it helps, and keep the wedding more important than the photo shoot.
Read ↗02San Francisco wedding photographer
From City Hall and Nob Hill clubs to neighborhood restaurants, gardens, and private homes, we use the city’s architecture and energy without sending a wedding on a landmark tour.
Read ↗03Marin County wedding photographer
Marin is our closest region and one of the deepest parts of our work: Mount Tam, West Marin ranches, the Headlands, redwood venues, family homes, beaches, and the roads between them.
Read ↗04Oakland and East Bay wedding photographer
Oakland weddings often move between family homes, civic spaces, churches, restaurants, gardens, and rooms with their own history. We keep that context instead of flattening the day into generic portraits.
Read ↗05Napa and Sonoma Wine Country wedding photographer
We photograph weddings throughout Napa, Sonoma, Healdsburg, Calistoga, and the roads between them. Vineyards, ranches, restaurants, and estates shape the day, but the people, weather, food, family, and movement give the photographs their story.
Read ↗06Northern California wedding photographer
We photograph weddings throughout Northern California—from San Francisco, Marin, and Wine Country to redwood camps, working ranches, the Mendocino coast, and destination weekends farther north. The setting matters because it changes the light, travel, weather, people, and pace of the day.
Read ↗07Documentary wedding photographer
Documentary wedding photography is not the absence of judgment or help. It is the decision to treat what people experience as the primary material, and to use direction without replacing that experience.
Read ↗08Photojournalistic wedding photography
Photojournalistic and documentary are often used interchangeably. The useful promise is a photographer who can anticipate, frame, and connect real events without making the day perform for the camera.
Read ↗09Editorial and candid wedding photography
Editorial judgment shapes framing, light, color, pacing, and the small amount of direction that makes a portrait work. Documentary attention keeps that judgment from turning the wedding into a production.
Read ↗10Bay Area film wedding photographer
We add film photography to complete digital coverage so texture never comes at the expense of the story. We choose the cameras, formats, and moments according to the light, pace, and character of the day; digital protects fast movement, difficult light, and everything that does not wait.
Read ↗11Bay Area luxury wedding photographer
For complex, design-led, multi-day, and deeply personal celebrations, luxury is the quality of attention: experienced planning, calm communication, complete coverage, beautiful finishing, discretion, and photographs that still feel inhabited.
Read ↗12Destination wedding photographer
We photograph destination weddings when the location is part of the story: a rainforest and beach in Tofino, a family hotel in Asbury Park, a Yucatán hacienda, or a place that asks everyone to arrive and stay awhile.
Read ↗13LGBTQ+ wedding photographer
We photograph people, relationships, families, and chosen families as they are. Planning language, portrait direction, traditions, and the shape of coverage should fit the couple rather than forcing everyone into inherited roles.
Read ↗14Bay Area Indian wedding photographer
We photograph Indian and intercultural weddings as complete stories: the traditions and design, the people who carry them, parallel preparation, multiple ceremonies, changing clothing, food, speeches, and the party that follows.
Read ↗15Multicultural wedding photographer
Intercultural weddings often carry several families, languages, ceremonies, faiths, and expectations at once. We build enough context to photograph those layers clearly while the couple remains free to be present.
Read ↗16Bay Area family photographer
At home, outside, or in a place your family actually uses, we follow play, affection, noise, quiet, and the small routines that change faster than anyone expects.
Read ↗17Bay Area maternity photographer
A maternity session can be quiet, intimate, funny, physical, and connected to home or landscape without becoming a performance built around poses.
Read ↗18Bay Area newborn photographer
Feeding, soothing, changing, siblings, pets, unfinished rooms, and exhausted parents are not interruptions. They are the real shape of early family life, and the session can move with them.
