Not Your Typical Wedding Photographers — and Proud of It
The Hendrys are a camera-wielding husband-and-wife team who’ve been keeping wedding photos funky since 2011. Originally from Scotland and now based in the Bay Area, they’ve made a name for themselves as one of California’s most delightfully offbeat photography duos.
Their philosophy is simple: normal is boring. They skip the stiff poses and awkward smiles, focusing instead on the real stuff — laughter, chaos, bad dance moves, and those blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moments that actually matter. Every photo tells the story as it unfolds, raw and unfiltered, in a style they lovingly call “candid documentary with attitude.”
Together, Sarah and Darren bring a mix of artistry, humor, and heart that makes couples instantly feel at ease. Their chemistry behind the camera (and in life) shows up in every frame. She’s the detail-driven creative with a soft spot for bunnies and adaptogens, he’s the former architect-turned-photo-nerd who believes progressive metal is therapy. Between them, they’ve captured countless love stories that feel anything but generic.
Whether they’re shooting coastal elopements near Big Sur, urban celebrations in downtown San Francisco, or sunset weddings in the desert, The Hendrys bring their signature blend of punk energy, cinematic flair, and heartfelt storytelling to every frame. Expect vibrant colors, a dash of moonlight, maybe even a UFO cameo - and always, photos that feel unapologetically you.
So if you’re hunting for Bay Area wedding photographers who care less about perfection and more about personality, you just found your match.
Meet Sarah & Darren aka The Hendrys, your wedding photographers in the Bay Area:
"Hey you two! We’re The Hendrys - proudly offbeat, delightfully weird, and all about keeping things real. No stiff poses, no cheesy clichés. Just you being you, while we quietly capture the magic as it unfolds. We know being in front of the camera can feel awkward (same here, honestly). So we’ll do everything we can to make it easy: terrible jokes, weird shit-chat, whatever gets you laughing and feeling like yourselves.
Our style? Fun. Imaginative. Creative. Authentic. We chase great light, embrace the unexpected, and show up with open hearts for every couple we photograph.
"Imperfect, joyful, full of personality" - If that sounds like your vibe, and you want photos that feel like you, then we’d love to be part of your day."
- Sarah and Darren
