About

Darren is an artist who approaches the day as a humble witness, a documentary photographer in search of capturing genuine moments. He strives to tell each unique story and it's many layers in a creative and authentic way, always looking for the moments in between moments, the unexpected, the intimate and candid interactions that arise within the fluidity of the day. Darren and his entire team bring the highest quality, integrity, craftsmanship, and kindness to the process and hope to be a gentle presence and trusted source of ease on your wedding day.

His time documenting stories across the world as a photojournalist has greatly influenced how he approaches wedding photography, as have his collective interests and experiences. Away from the lens, he's a boat captain, a meditator and a student always in search of learning more. A best friend and a new dad. An avid skier and adventure seeker who enjoys getting off the beaten path and exploring as much as he enjoys the stillness of a week at home.

Darren has documented gatherings of all kinds around the globe with some of the leading event planners and alongside a diverse and talented team who all share in a commitment to excellence and upholding their core value of treating all with dignity and kindness.
