Events & Celebrations — Bay Area & Wine Country

My work is rooted in warmth, discretion, and an inclusive approach that welcomes couples and families of every background.

Events & Celebrations Across the Bay Area

Not every celebration needs a ballroom or a timeline- some live in backyards filled with people you love, or at a long table where everyone talks over one another. My event photography leans toward the moments where connection leads and the camera follows.

How Events Unfold

Events move differently than portraits, which is part of the fun. I keep the direction light, the rhythm flexible, and the focus on people being themselves. Most celebrations involve a mix of candids, small groupings, and the details you spent time choosing. What matters most is that the photographs help you remember what the day actually felt like.

Whom This Is For

Families marking a milestone (birthdays, graduations, moving-away gatherings)
Bar and Bat Mitzvahs
LGBTQ+ celebrations where comfort and trust matter
Small backyard events
Wine Country gatherings that deserve elegant, natural documentation
Anyone who prefers ease to spectacle

Where We Photograph Your Event

Events happen wherever life happens. Some favorites include:

San Francisco homes and backyards, which tend to create relaxed, joyful frames
Pacifica and Half Moon Bay venues, where the light plays along in late afternoon
Wine Country estates and tasting rooms, especially for intimate dinners or milestone celebrations
Neighborhood parks or community spaces, which are especially good for kids, cousins, and everyone needing a soft landing

If your venue has tricky light, I will work around it; if it has charm, we will use it.
