I absolutely loved Grace and Andy’s unconventional approach to their wedding. Everyone says your wedding day flies by too quickly, said Andy, addressing the crowd. So we decided to drag this out as long as possible. They went for a two-day affair. Day one was an adorable ceremony and outdoor party at the Rengstorff House in Mountain…
It’s a three-hour drive from the San Francisco up along the California Coast to Sea Ranch. And since I was making the trek to photograph a beautiful wedding up there, I decided to turn it into a little weekend retreat. On the way up, I stopped at this little roadside cafe in Jenner for brunch. …
They met at the CIA (the Culinary Institute of America and not the Central Intelligence Agency). They had grown up across the country from each other, Ashley in Pennsylvania and Chad in Las Vegas, each with a wide range of interests. But their love of cooking drew them to California. They bonded over food, laughter, and wine,…
The story of how Jen and Mike met would not be complete without all the stories of how Jen and Mike almost but did not meet: their mutual friend Tom could’ve introduced them but decided Jen wasn’t Mike’s type; when Tom threw a party, Jen attended, but Mike skipped it; and when Tom invited Jen to…
Back in June of last year, a group of twelve of us had an incredible experience dining at The French Laundry in Napa Valley. Immediately afterwards, we started plotting our next group dining experience and set our sights on Alinea in Chicago. I really liked the idea of dining with a group, but after my inquiry returned a quote of $36,500…
We walked into the former macaroni factory-turned-artists’ lofts, a character-filled space perfectly befitting Jessica and Alex. After we ascended six flights of stairs, we were treated to the most spectacular gem, with all of downtown Chicago ready to serve as the backdrop to the wedding ceremony. It turns out those 80% chance thunderstorm forecasts were all bluster….
What a beautiful Labor Day weekend in Chicago! I was in Chicago for a wedding on Saturday, but of course, we packed in lots of other adventures while we were there, and it was all capped off with this engagement session for my friends Ninna and Eric. We explored some nature-filled areas of Lincoln Park before…
Since the beginning of 2014, I have been working on my year-long personal project, Art for Art. Once a month, I find a fellow photographer whose work I admire, and I photograph them; they photograph me. View the full set of previous shoots in the series here: Art for Art.

There are a lot of things that float through your head on move-in day your freshman year in college. What are you going to major in? Who will your friends be? Is your roommate crazy? It might not occur to you to think, “Will I meet the love of my life today?” But of course that’s exactly what…
I absolutely love Mairin and Nikhil’s final products from their two-day Indian wedding celebration. We created a wonderfully large 80-page book to include as many photos as possible while still keeping a beautiful, clean layout. And in addition to their large 12×12″ album, they also created two 6×6″ mini books to share with each of their parents….
