I hired Dennis for my wedding pics. Dennis had something come up and he let me know that unfortunately, he couldn't be our photographer that day. He made sure that I was taken care of and put me in contact with his partner Nick.
Nick was great and made us feel comfortable and relaxed on our special wedding day and captured our essence as a couple in candid photos. Dennis finalized our photos and sent them to me within weeks of our wedding. They are so beautiful and I'm grateful to have found Dennis and his team.

We had the absolute best experience with our photographer for our sunrise wedding near Yosemite. He showed up right at 6 AM, full of energy, professionalism, and genuine excitement for our day. The photos completely blew us away—he captured every moment so beautifully and naturally. The quality is beyond anything we could have imagined, and we truly feel like he preserved the magic of the morning forever. We absolutely love him and would recommend him to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and incredibly gifted photographer.

I asked him to shoot our surprise wedding proposal and he did a top notch job. He was there on time ahead of us, and in the perfect position to take the pictures without arousing my fiance's suspicion. The photos themselves were fantastic and we've already gotten many compliments on them from friends and family. He also got us our photos that very evening despite the fact that we weren't in any sort of rush. I would recommend him to anybody looking for an engagement/proposal photographer.
Details: Proposal photoshoot • Candid • Outdoors • One location • Online or digital proofs and prints • My home, venue, etc.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is set to be competitive and helps clients save, while also reflecting the time and artistry that goes into creating and editing every image. Because of this, my prices are firm; but, I promise, you’re getting my absolute best work!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to start with a conversation to understand their vision and what’s most important to them. From there, we go over details, create a plan, and make sure they feel comfortable and excited for their big day!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I studied photography and cinema at CSU Sacramento and I have been trained in a wide range of photography styles and genres, which has prepared me well to handle any environment on a wedding day, or any other large event.
