My approach in photography is relaxed and lightly guided, leaving room for movement, connection, and images that feel nostalgic and timeless. I’m especially drawn to in-home family sessions — unhurried, familiar, and captured in the spaces where life is already growing. It would be my honor to document your sweet moments with family and loved ones!

Annette is incredible to work with - she is so gentle and kind. She quickly learns your dynamic as a couple, and helps guide the shoot to help match your energy. She has taken photos of my husband and I throughout our relationship, and they capture our love so well, while also being classic, timeless, and elegant.

Memo really came to the rescue when we had originally booked with a studio that flaked two days prior to the wedding. Memo was extremely patient and understanding of our situation and offered us a very generous and flexible rate to accommodate us with such short notice. He maintained a positive attitude during the whole event even when the circumstances were not ideal. Memo is very professional and friendly, you can tell he is passionate about his work. We were so happy with our photos, I would definitely book him again for an anniversary shoot or a family shoot. Thanks again, Memo. :)

Hey, I'm so glad you're here! My name is Heather and I live in beautiful Foresthill, CA. I love any and all hard seltzers, my Great Dane Fritz, and using my camera to capture all the feels. About my business? Well I'm basically a professional wedding crasher, so you know you will always have fun with me! Oh and I've pretty much cried at every wedding I've ever been to...and yours is no exception. Let's be friends!

You can't go wrong with Heather. She and her team handled our engagement photos and shot our wedding. Both sets of pictures are incredible! She captured amazing moments of our wedding--and they match our memories perfectly. Heather's photos are stunning, but also feel authentic. Beyond her photography and editing abilities, she made us feel very comfortable. My wife and I aren't used to professional photoshoots (we are humble folk), so having someone so kind and down-to-earth made those experiences fun. Heather felt like someone we'd want to have at our wedding anyway! Hire her, have fun, and frame those prints.

I’ve had a camera in my hand since I can remember. On family vacations each of us had a camera and would come back with several rolls of film. It was great to see different perspectives of the same place. My photos became more refined throughout my childhood as I graduated to my stepdad’s Minolta film SLR. In college I dedicated myself to photography professionally with a degree in photojournalism, then found my calling with a wedding studio at 19.

I am really interested in other people. I like to find out about you. I believe we all have value, and everybody deserves to be happy. Sour Pusses are quite the bummer, and seriousness is overrated. I really believe there should be very little reason for people to not get along. EVERYONE is welcome. I LOVE nostalgia, and having my work appreciated enough to be on your walls is the best feeling. I roast my own coffee, I am a friek for Legos, old black and white movies, the ocean, the forest, the jungle, and chatting with people.

Daniel Cewinski Photography was an outstanding choice for our wedding photographer. From the beginning, Daniel's communication style was assertive, positive, and thorough, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. His work is truly exceptional - passionate, professional, and sophisticated. On our wedding day, Daniel paid particular attention to our needs, being extremely accommodating with our family and sunset photographs. It was significantly beneficial to meet Daniel during our engagement photoshoot, as it helped us feel secure and motivated for the upcoming wedding. Daniel made the entire experience a joy, and we are thrilled with the beautiful, high-quality photos that captured our special day perfectly.

You know that friend who always gets your good angles? Brings her digital camera to every event, and when it's photo time she'll fix your hair, tuck in the tag that's sticking out, move your arm just so, then pull out a flash you didn't even know she had for better lighting. That's me. I'll get shot that'll make you fall in love with you again.

Working with Ela for our Save the Date session was a wonderful experience from start to finish. She has an incredible eye for detail and guided me and my fiancé through poses in a way that felt entirely natural and effortless. Not only is the final gallery breathtaking, but Ela was professional, warm, and exceptionally talented throughout the shoot.

I capture your wedding with energy, intention, and an eye for moments that matter most. My couples get more than beautiful photos – they get someone who keeps things organized, brings a fun and calming presence, and makes everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. The result is timeless images that feel as genuine as your love story.

I’ve had my photos taken by Quentin multiple times, and every single experience has been amazing. He has this incredible ability to make you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera, even if you’re someone who normally hates having your picture taken. He gives just enough direction without making anything feel forced, and somehow always captures the most genuine moments. When I got my gallery back, I was honestly blown away. The photos felt like me natural, flattering and full of personality. Beyond his talent, he’s simply a great person to work with professional, fun, patient, and someone who truly cares about his clients. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for beautiful photos and an even better experience.

Throughout the wedding day, she is silently present capturing moments on camera, allowing these to organically occur, and not be forced.

If you’ve landed here, my guess is you want the perfect balance. Someone who will give you direction during your couple’s portraits, while avoiding making you feel like you’re on the MET gala red carpet during your ceremony. I’m here to help you feel at ease, to make jokes, to reassure you everything and nothing matters all in the same breath. I take years of stealthy concert photography skills and apply that to documenting the candid familial embrace. The wild shirtless last dance of the evening. The moment when you two look at each other after all the speeches are done, and you realize how wonderful it is to be showered with so much love.

“I could not have chosen a better photographer for my album cover art. Not only do I have a collection of exquisite and totally unique photos, after working with Jessie I also see myself in a brand new light. I feel more confident, more graceful, and frankly more badass. When I was designing my album cover art, I wanted something dreamy, but not cheesy or cliche. When I saw Jessie’s underwater photography I knew immediately that this was the right match. If anyone could capture the feel I was going for, it was her. I loved everything about working with her—it felt like playing around. I am not a model, or much of a water person, but together we figured out how to move my body, how to push my hair around, how to use the fabric underwater, how to relax my face. All I really needed was one good picture, but I ended up with so many stunning, magical photographs, unlike anything else out there. It was beyond anything I had imagined. What an incredibly special experience. I am so grateful that I was able to work with Jessie. People compliment my album cover all the time, but more importantly, it’s actually the cover I always dreamed of."
