VINTNERS INN - SANTA ROSA | BAY AREA AND SACRAMENTO WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER


There’s something so magical about capturing a couple’s wedding day, especially at a beautiful location like Vintners Inn in Santa Rosa. This wedding was filled with moments that truly told their love story—from the quiet anticipation as they prepared, to the emotional vows, and the joyful celebration that followed.


For couples who want their wedding photos to feel authentic and real, documentary-style photography is the perfect choice. My approach focuses on capturing those candid, unscripted moments—the ones that show the genuine smiles, the teary eyes, and the laughter shared between friends and family. This style allows for timeless photos that bring you back to the emotions of the day, without feeling posed too posed.


Throughout this wedding, I focused on documenting the small, meaningful moments that make up the day. From the bride’s final touches in the getting-ready room to the sweet glances shared during the ceremony, every photo is a piece of their story. Some of my favorite shots include the bride’s veil catching the wind as they strolled through the vineyards at Vintners Inn, the joy of family and friends during the speeches, and the couple’s first dance under the evening sky. Capturing these real, intimate moments is what I live for.


Vintners Inn provided the perfect blend of scenic vineyards and elegant spaces, creating a beautiful backdrop for every part of the celebration. This wedding was a reminder of why I love photographing in the wine country—each location has its own charm, and every wedding tells a unique story against these stunning settings.
