Natural, cinematic photography.

Murphys Photo Studio specializes in cinematic wedding photography rooted in the beauty of the Sierra foothills. We capture the real emotion of your day — the quiet anticipation, the laughter, the wind catching a veil at golden hour — with a refined, film-inspired style that feels timeless and natural. From vineyard ceremonies in Murphys to celebrations across California, our focus is simple: preserve your story with depth, elegance, and intention so it feels just as powerful decades from now as it does today. Have camera, will travel.

I have been shooting weddings and general photography for over 20 years. My daughter has now joined me as we now shoot as a team for most events.

Our Works

Real moments hit different. Clean tones. Strong contrast. Timeless frames.

At Murphys Photo Studio, the light moves first. It spills over vineyard hills, settles on lace veils, lingers in the dust after a Friday night game. We step into that glow and press the shutter, freezing the quiet electricity of a moment that will never happen the same way again.

The wedding gives us the backdrop. You bring the story.
