Preserving not just how your wedding day looked, but how it felt.
honest storytelling, rooted in presence, connection, and nostalgia that will have you reliving every moment as it happened for generations to come - from the sweet pinky hold during cocktail hour, to the tears your grandmother has watching you during the parent dances.
I'm Sydney jai
I specialize in documenting the heart in weddings across Northern California because when you look back on your photos, I want to ensure you don't just see the pretty photos but are reminded of exactly how you felt in that moment.
But you can call me Syd
Where Real, Raw, & Authentic
Moments are cherished
I’m known for being the loud, friendly, outgoing horse girl — and it’s 100% true. I live in beautiful Marin County with my husband (my childhood best friend), our two sweet boys, our dogs, and my horse — the only other girl in the family (I am fully outnumbered by boys). Our life is beautifully full with a touch of wild. You can usually find me chasing sunsets, riding horses, or playing outside with my boys.
"Our wedding would not have been the same without her."
"Sydney totally exceeded our expectations! She was incredibly kind, flexible and punctual. Our wedding would not have been the same without her. Her positive energy was exactly what I needed and her wedding expertise was a huge comfort. You will not regret booking with Sydney!"

"She showed up & captured our day in a very unique & personalized way"
Olivia & Ben
"Sydney was such a wonderful wedding photographer. She was the perfect combination of professional and fun we were looking for. Sydney puts in so much work before the wedding getting to know you as a couple, so that she can show up and capture your day in a very unique and personalized way. Anyone can see by her gallery that she is an awesome photographer, but once you get on a call with her, you can see how much a wonderful person she is to work with. Would definitely book with her again!!"
