Thank you for being here and looking at some of my work.

I would love to be invited to photograph your most intimate and momentous occasions that brings together so many of your favorite and most supportive people— your community. I am lucky that I get to see your world and get to feel just how love unites us all. To see the wonderful glimmers of friendship, kindness and of course the love that has supported you throughout your journey, together.

My priority on your day is to have you forget I’m there with a camera, but rather that I’m a guest who gets to witness & root for you and the incredible community the two of you have made that are gathered here for you. I offer my expertise & support every step of the way— to have you feel at home & at ease, so that you two can be fully present and able to celebrate and enjoy yourselves among your guests. And after it is all said and done, you’ll get to enjoy the results from this day, forever & ever.

With your trust & collaboration, I photograph your day with an open & honest heart and will blend seamlessly within your world to capture everything that is both seen and felt. Moments— both big and small and especially the in between ones.

Wedding photography packages are tailored to each of my couples.

So if my work resonates with you and our values align — I’d be honored to photograph your wedding day.

The Process:

  • Send an official inquiry using the contact form so we can start to get to know each other and you can share with me what you’ve dreamed up for your wedding day.

    Then, let’s set up a time to connect with a consult call. With the consult, we’ll get to know each other, you can ask all the questions and I get to learn more about what is important to the both of you.

    After the call: from what you’ve shared with me, I’ll create your custom proposal and email you the link within 48 hours.

    *If you much prefer to do most of our communication via email or zoom or through your wedding planner —no problem! Just let me know your preference.

  • Over our consultation, we’ll get to know more about each other— from how you two met, how one proposed to what you envision for your day and how my expertise & artistry will help you feel at ease to perfectly capture your day best.

  • Once I’ve answered all your questions: whether it’s about how I approach your day or what my contract terms look like, then I’ll send over your contract & invoice—which you can sign digitally & pay securely online.

  • Whether your collection included a site visit or an engagement session: we’ll work together to schedule these and check them off your to-do list!

    I will send over the following questionnaires to start this process:
    - Site visit & venue walkthrough
    - Engagement Session
    - Wedding Day Photo Timeline + Photo list

  • The day is finally here! We’ll take care of you.

    Along with your planner— we would have worked tirelessly to make sure all the i's have been dotted and all the t’s crossed, so that on your wedding day— you just get to enjoy yourselves and celebrate with all your guests.

  • Within 24 -48 hours, you’ll receive a handful of my favorite images from your wedding day straight to your phone so you can keep on smiling after the day is over and make it official on social media!

  • Within 8 weeks from your wedding day, you’ll receive your completed online gallery curated and personalized with your edited high resolution images.

    If you would like additional heirloom items, such as fine art prints or albums, then we can discuss this whenever you are ready.

Kind Words

  • "Cherlyn was amazing. She was so kind and professional and took the most gorgeous photos that looked real and candid, never staged or posed. Excellent for someone looking for more natural, low key but awesome wedding photography.

    — Nicolette & Thomas

  • "Loved working with Cherlyn! She was everything we wanted in a wedding photographer and more. She cared about capturing our wedding day but also about us enjoying our day. She helped us get some moments alone in the midst of all the crazy. We would have her again any day :)"

    —Rebeca & Ben

  • "We booked Cherlyn for our wedding and engagement photos and she did such an incredible job! The day was supposed to be clear and beautiful for our engagement photos but once we got to the beach - the fog rolled in but the photos ended up being so beautiful and very SF. It couldn't have turned out better! For our wedding, we don't like doing many posed photos and really wanted her to just capture all the moments throughout our wedding and they all turned out amazing! She is so easy to work with and laid back. We're so glad we booked Cherlyn for our wedding!"

    —Franny & Enrique

  • "Cherlyn went above and beyond our expectations as our wedding photographer. She was extremely thoughtful, detail-oriented and communicative. After we postponed our wedding due to covid, we are so thankful to have worked with Cherlyn and have her expertise to guide us through a difficult time. She is an experienced photographer and was able to capture the very essence of our day. I highly recommend working with Cherlyn if you are looking for a photographer in the Bay Area."

    —Ellen & Eli

  • "We met Cherlyn through a friend and we are so glad we got to work with her. Cherlyn is an amazing person and even better photographer. She was so easy to work with, was very responsive and worked with us when we had to change our wedding venue. We booked our engagement shoot, rehearsal dinner, wedding and photo booth with her. Her use of natural lighting is simply breath taking. Her photos came out absolutely perfect for all events. She was able to provide our photos in such a timely manner. When we sent out the pictures to our loved ones, they all commented how quickly we received the photos and how beautiful they all turned out! On the day of the wedding her team was great to work with. Both were so patient with our family and friends. We love Cherlyn and look forward to working with her for future milestone celebrations."
