Bay Area Elopement & Wedding Photographer

 

Inclusive, emotionally intuitive photography for couples throughout the Bay Area, Northern California, and beyond.

 

YOU GET TO BE PRESENT. I'LL BE THERE TO OBSERVE.

 

Your wedding isn't a performance. Your photos shouldn't feel like one either.

You shouldn't have to spend your wedding day thinking about the camera or feeling like it's a production.


Laugh without wondering if it looks good. Get swept up on the dance floor. Take a quiet minute together when you need one. My job is to give you direction when you need it, step back when you don't, and make space for you to actually be with the people you love.


I'm paying attention to more than what's happening right in front of me. The people you love, the reactions you didn't see, and the little moments unfolding on the side. The photographs matter deeply. But so does getting to live the experience happening inside them.

Kind words

"We love how, still to this day, every time we look at one of the photos from our engagement session or wedding we feel like we were still in that moment."

What you can expect here

⟡  Support that starts long before your wedding day. From figuring out how much coverage makes sense, to timelines, locations, permits, and all the little questions along the way, you don't have to figure everything out on your own.

⟡ A photographer you don't have to manage. We go over everything beforehand so when the day comes, you can trust me to know what's important and where I need to be.

⟡  A real human in your corner. Someone who can read the room, keep things grounded when you need it, celebrate right alongside you, and respectfully shake some ass on the dance floor.

⟡ A space where you get to show up fully as yourself. Your identities, relationships, families, bodies, and boundaries will always be treated with care and respect.

Two different celebrations. One intentional experience.

I’m Taylor! A queer wedding and elopement photographer based in the Bay Area of California documenting celebrations throughout Northern California and wherever your love story takes you. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The warmth you feel here is real,

 

 

and the love I have for this work, and for the people I photograph, runs deep.

Wedding & Elopement Photography Across Northern California


As a Bay Area wedding and elopement photographer, I photograph celebrations throughout Northern California. From Oakland and San Francisco to the redwood forests, Big Sur, Yosemite, Santa Cruz, Napa, Sonoma.



While California is my home base, I'm always ready to pack my bags for destination celebrations.

Don't just take my word for it

"She truly went above and beyond and made our day even more special with her warmth, creativity, and professionalism."
