About Craig

Photography for me has been a life-long love which continues today in many capacities. While I continue to serve on staff as a photojournalist at The Fresno Bee, I am also a full-time business professional with a focus in wedding, portrait and commercial photography.

Photography, when done right, is timeless, important, indelible. I strive to find truth in photography with documentary style, while capturing the true personalities in lively portraits.

I really appreciate your interest in my work and would love to talk to you about your event. To contact me about an event, go to the contact form or send me an . For more of my work you may see my main site. Thanks for dropping by.

Daena & Chris: Dinkey Creek wedding

I some pretty interesting weddings – and I’m so grateful to my clients for that! – but I don’t think I’ve seen one more interesting that Chris and Daena’s wedding held at the Dinkey Creek campgrounds. These two really knew how to throw a party. They reserved the entire lower loop for all their family and guests and they stressed a very casual attire for the wedding. In fact, they demanded I not get dressed up to shoot their wedding. They said wear shorts (!). Who was I to argue? OK. I had a great time shooting their wedding because it was so low key, casual and, well, fun. The location was absolutely beautiful. I wish I could do all my weddings in a setting like this. I really appreciate Chris and Daena for their generosity and hospitality.

This photograph is wonderful! I love casual weddings. So stressless. She’s so pretty in this picture and they make such a cute couple. I don’t know if we have a setting like that here, in Delaware. But, I’m going to make it my mission to find one. My children would love to camp at this campground. I love your work. Your a talented photographer.

What a great low key wedding! What a fun couple. You captured the day well (in your summer shorts and all!)
