ABOUT
The magic isn't in the perfect,
it's in the in-between
Hey, I’m Wade.
I’m a Tahoe based wedding photographer, but not in the pose and smile sense. I’m more like a quiet observer with a camera and a deep respect for weird, beautiful, human moments.
I’m not here to create content. I’m here to create keepsakes. I shoot what’s real: shaky hands before vows, windblown veils, spontaneous dance circles, drunk uncles, and stolen looks when no one else is watching.
My work is rooted in natural light, film inspired tones, and the feeling you get when you’re halfway through a perfect day and don’t even realize it yet. I work all over California, Hawaii, and anywhere the light hits just right.
On your wedding day, I won’t ask you to fake anything. I’ll just be there with a camera, a calm energy, and an eye for the magic you might miss.
What I believe
✦ I don’t pose people like mannequins. I guide, then get out of the way.
✦ I care more about your grandma crying than your flat lay details.
✦ I shoot how it felt, not just how it looked.
✦ Natural light > artificial drama. Always.
✦ I don’t bleach your skin or desaturate your soul. Your color stays.
✦ If you want someone to direct your every move, it’s not me.
✦ If you want someone to catch the in between stuff you didn’t even notice.
Then yes, It's me.
Still here? Let’s make something beautiful.
No pressure. Just great photos and good vibes.
