My Ultimate Dream Destination Wedding List

Every photographer has a dream list of destinations, and these are mine. Each location combines breathtaking landscapes with the chance to tell a love story that feels cinematic, intentional, and unforgettable. From misty coastlines to golden cliffs, these places inspire creativity and connection.

Banff’s alpine lakes, Santorini’s glowing sunsets, and Scotland’s Isle of Skye bring romance to life with every frame. Yosemite, Big Sur, and Joshua Tree offer wild, dramatic backdrops for couples who crave adventure. Across the ocean, the Amalfi Coast and Ireland’s Cliffs of Moher set the stage for elegance and timeless beauty. Closer to home, Tofino remains one of my most beloved spots, with its rugged beaches and Pacific sunsets.

These destinations are more than dream backdrops. They are places where couples can feel fully present, grounded, and connected to each other. That’s why they sit at the top of my ultimate wish list.

If one of these locations is part of your vision, I would love to capture it. You cover the travel, and the photography is my gift to you. Together, we can create something extraordinary.
