Thank you!

Recently voted “Best Wedding Photographer” by the North Bay Bohemian.

“The best photography is about how you feel, not just how you look”

I’m your wedding photographer, your family historian, a documentarian. My goal isn’t to simply take photos and gather evidence, it’s to make great photos that look like how a moment felt. The photos I take aren’t just for you, they’re for future generations to feel connected to you and your story. When you see a great photo, you should feel like you were in that moment.

Let me ask you something…

Do you want to feel present at your wedding? Not only because you don’t want to be trapped in an all day photoshoot, but also feel present every time you look at your photos?

Are you sentimental but, not super serious?

Do you want a fly-on-the wall and sometimes up close and personal view of your unique wedding day?

Do you want to see all the emotional, wacky or absolutely stunning moments of one of the best days or your life?

If you’re saying “ I do,” we should talk!

— Claire B.

Loren took a cast of very different family members and through her patience and good humor, helped us find the commonality in all of us. She worked well with young kids, older teens, parents and a grandparent.  Everyone enjoyed the shoot and the photos show it.”
