Why Healdsburg

Healdsburg blends small-town charm with high design—walkable tasting rooms, redwood-lined roads, and hillside vineyards that glow at golden hour. The historic Plaza, Michelin-level dining, and modern boutique hotels make it an effortless destination for guests and a dream canvas for photography.

Working with Us

Our process is simple and personal: a quick call to learn your vision, location and timeline planning, style guidance, and day-of direction that keeps everything natural and unrushed. We offer hybrid coverage (digital + analog film) when it suits the light and mood—most couples love the blend.

Weddings in Healdsburg

From intimate winery courtyards to vineyard overlooks at sunset, we photograph the full story—quiet moments, family, the beautiful in-between. Popular venues include private estates in Dry Creek and Alexander Valley, and design-forward hotel spaces near the Plaza.

Engagements & Proposals

We help plan surprise proposals (best light, exact spot, timing) and design engagement sessions that feel like you—vineyard strolls, forest paths, riverbanks, or a chic walk through the Plaza with a cocktail stop.

Destination Engagements

Making a weekend of it? We’ll map a relaxed route (sunrise redwoods, late-afternoon vines, dinner downtown), with wardrobe guidance and built-in breaks so it feels like a date, not a production.

Portraits & Branding

Clean, modern portraits for creatives and teams—on location at tasting rooms, maker spaces, hotels, or outdoors. We produce cohesive brand sets sized for web, print, and social, with room for headlines and graphic overlays.

Corporate & Events

We cover executive retreats, launches, culinary experiences, and incentive trips across Healdsburg’s hotels, wineries, and private properties. Options include headshot stations, same-day selects, and private online galleries.
