Switzer Farm: Our Dream Wedding Venue in Sonoma
There’s something truly magical about Switzer Farm in Sonoma, and I’m thrilled to share that this is where I am getting married! From the moment I first stepped onto the property, I fell in love with its rustic charm, rolling vineyards, and intimate, natural beauty. It’s the perfect backdrop for a wedding that feels personal, romantic, and full of life.
Switzer Farm offers a versatile and stunning setting for ceremonies and receptions. Its open fields, charming barns, and vineyard views create endless opportunities for timeless wedding photography. As a wedding photographer myself, I can’t get enough of how the light dances across the landscape, making every shot feel warm, natural, and romantic.
Beyond its visual appeal, Switzer Farm has a welcoming and personal atmosphere that makes you feel like you’re celebrating with family. I love how this venue blends the rustic elegance of Sonoma wine country with a relaxed, intimate vibe—exactly the feeling I wanted for our own wedding day.
For couples dreaming of a wedding that is beautiful, authentic, and uniquely theirs, Switzer Farm is a standout choice in Sonoma. Personally, I couldn’t imagine a more perfect place to begin this next chapter of life, surrounded by the landscape I love and the people who mean the most to me. Pairing this stunning venue with professional wedding photography ensures every magical moment is captured forever.

BEHIND THE LENS
MEET Claire
Capturing love, connection, and timeless beauty in every wedding and lifestyle session.
An editorial and cinematic wedding photographer based in the breathtaking landscapes of Northern California. My journey as a wedding photographer began in 2016, shortly after I graduated from UC Berkeley. Photography started as a creative outlet for me as I worked towards a doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology but each year that my business grew, my passion for storytelling grew with it. After completing my doctorate, I decided to venture on the path less taken (or likely never taken) and apply the incredible skills learned in my graduate training towards a career as a wedding photographer. This has given me the ability to capture not just moments, but emotions, creating timeless visual narratives that reflect the genuine essence of each couple's love story. My awareness of emotions allows me to better connect with clients, translating their stories into captivating and authentic images. Driven by both artistic passion and psychological understanding, I aim to transform weddings into art, preserving the beauty of emotional connections that last a lifetime.
While Northern California is my home and my muse, my love for photography knows no boundaries. I've had the honor of traveling to capture destination weddings, crafting timeless images that reflect the essence of love in the most extraordinary settings.
I hope as you browse through this site you enjoy my work and you will be able to see how much I love capturing raw and authentic moments with all natural lighting!
"While there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see.”
