Peter & Julia | Marin Headlands, California
Peter and Julia are a creative, ambitious, and fun loving couple. Undeterred by rain or cold, they loved, laughed, and danced with their close friends and family in one of the most beautiful places I’ve photographed.
Nestled in the Marin Headlands, the Marin Headlands Center for the Arts is a decommissioned military base that was transformed into an artist-in-residence space and gallery. When Peter and Julia walked me through the space before the wedding, I think I told them at least 10 times how awesome the patina on the walls looked and that the window light was to die for. Marin Headlands wedding photography is easy when you have such great people and locations to work with. Coming from Seattle, the rain and weather was quite normal for me, and it was second nature to use the soft light that the cloudy skies provided for clean, clear, portraits and candid photos.
Peter and Julia are not only best friends, but true soul-mates. When their friends sang an acoustic version of Bob Dylan’s ‘Forever Young’ during the ceremony, there wasn’t a dry eye in the room. I really enjoyed spending time with Peter and Julia and their amazing friends. I know Peter and Julia will have an incredible marriage.

Perfect. If those were my photos of my wedding that’s all I’d need. What a great edit. The headshot portraits are awesome.
Great inspiration.

Portraits are my favorite thing in the whole world… so I try to make a lot of them at every wedding if time permits.

Great photos and wedding. Your photos capture all the beauty of the surroundings and beautiful detail while still feeling very personal and all about the people. Really really impressed.
