Hey, I’m Josh
A Northern California & destination wedding photographer telling love stories in NorCal, Napa, Sonoma, San Francisco, and beyond.
I specialize in cinematic, story-driven imagery that captures more than how your wedding day looked—I capture how it felt. Through real film, digital, Polaroids, and even Super 8, I preserve the in-between moments with intention and honesty.
I've been married to my best friend—who I’ve known since the first grade—since 2015, and we’re raising two amazing daughters here in Chico. My days start with espresso, are filled with slow moments with family, and are deeply shaped by my faith and love for timeless stories—the kind that speak to loyalty, legacy, and love that endures.
Whether I’m photographing a full wedding weekend in wine country or documenting a quiet connection between two people in their own home, I show up fully—with empathy, curiosity, and a deep respect for the trust you’ve placed in me.
I don’t believe in posed perfection. I believe in telling the truth—beautifully, quietly, and with heart.
At Fire by Night Photos, I offer wedding collections as well as a single, all-inclusive luxury experience crafted for couples who value story, subtlety, and soul. With full-day coverage, I document your day with a legacy-forward approach— capturing everything from the quiet in-between moments to the details you've spent months dreaming into reality.
Using timeless color tones, intentional light, and honest emotion, I create imagery that doesn’t just reflect your wedding — it feels like it. Your story, told with care, depth, and the reverence it deserves.
Working with Josh is more than photography — it’s a guided, intentional experience from start to finish.
From the first consult to the final gallery, I’m here to help shape the visual tone of your day, offer creative insight, and make space for real emotion to unfold. On the wedding day, I move quietly and purposefully — documenting with a quiet elegance and an eye for detail.
The result? A gallery that doesn’t just show what it looked like — but what it felt like.
Josh is professional, genuinely cares about his clients, and is incredibly talented! My husband and I love the vintage, classy style, and he delivered us such a beautiful gallery from our wedding. We will forever cherish these photos! Thank you so much for making it such a great experience working with you.
