SAN FRANCISCO PHOTOGRAPHER FOR WEDDING AND FAMILY LIFESTYLE
Welcome! I’m glad you found me
Hey there! I’m Christian – a Bay Area-based photographer who’s passionate about preserving the real, fleeting, and beautiful moments of life. I specialize in natural light family photography, lifestyle family portraits, and intimate wedding photography in the San Francisco Bay Area. My work is rooted in connection and emotion—because your story deserves to be told with heart.
Photography has completely changed the way I view time. It’s shown me how incredibly fast life moves, and how a single photograph can hold the power to pause it—just for a second. Whether it’s the quiet giggles of your child during a family session, or the emotional exchange of glances between newlyweds, I live for those small, unscripted moments that reveal something real. As a lifestyle family photographer, I don’t just pose people—I create a comfortable space where you can be fully yourselves, and I’ll be there to capture it all, naturally and beautifully.
My approach to photography is personal, warm, and candid. Many of my clients say working with me feels more like hanging out with a friend, and that’s exactly the kind of experience I want to give. That ease and trust help me capture images that feel honest and meaningful—not just beautiful on the outside, but full of soul.
When it comes to weddings, I’m all about the in-between moments—the fleeting ones that feel like magic. My style of candid wedding photography in the Bay Area means I won’t be barking orders or staging stiff poses. Instead, I’ll blend into the background, observe the day unfold, and preserve the laughter, tears, and subtle glances that make your wedding uniquely yours. If you're planning an intimate wedding in the San Francisco Bay Area, I’d be honored to document it in a way that feels true to you.
Outside of my work behind the lens, I’m a foodie at heart. I believe food is an underrated yet powerful way of connecting with people and their cultures. I’m also a big traveler—it inspires me creatively and gives me a new lens (pun intended!) through which to see the world and people’s stories.
I’m a firm believer in personal growth. Some of my favorite reads include Die With Zero by Bill Perkins, Taking Stockby Dr. Jordan Grumet, and Atomic Habits by James Clear. These books have deeply influenced the way I live and work. They remind me how precious time is—and how important it is to spend it well. Just like good habits compound over time, I believe capturing genuine moments with the people we love becomes more valuable the older we get.
And speaking of love—my family is my whole world. Spending time with them is when I feel most myself. Whether we're traveling or simply hanging out, they bring me joy and keep me grounded. They’re also a constant reminder of why I do what I do: to honor and preserve the relationships that mean the most.
More than anything, I want my work to feel like an experience—not just a photoshoot. I aim to go beyond the traditional photographer–subject relationship and create a space where clients feel seen, celebrated, and at ease. With a keen artistic eye and a deep appreciation for emotion and detail, I’m here to document your story exactly as it is—full of love, laughter, and life.

Let’s create something unforgettable together.
