Tahoe Wedding Photographers
Creating memories for life... one image at a time.
I first moved to South Lake Tahoe in 1999, being from South Africa and having lived all over the world in places like Australia, New Zealand, the UK and Israel. I would be the first to admit that I was a bit of a vagrant. In fact, one friend once described me to another person as "That guy that travels around the world with a camera and a skateboard..."
Once I got to South Lake Tahoe, I was blown away by the beauty and the culture that is all around us here. I spent my first 10 years in Lake Tahoe photographing action sports and working with various ski resorts in the area, as well as snowboard and ski companies. I loved the adventure that living in Tahoe provided as well as the passion of the people here.
For a few years my family relocated to the DFW area in Texas and here is where I fell in love with wedding photography, particularly the diverse cross section of cultures and locations that I got to work in. I particularly enjoyed photographing "cross cultural" weddings, having worked with Indian, Ethiopian, Nigerian as well as Vietnamese and Egyptian couples. What AMAZING experiences those were!!!!
However Lake Tahoe always had my heart, so after the pandemic and my kids graduating high school, I moved back here... and what a great decision. It finally feels like I can breathe again. I was even blessed enough to reconnect with an amazing woman and we got married here at our house in South Lake Tahoe in the summer of 2024.
Just a quick shout out to our amazing photographer, Jaime Emery from Rose Street Studios
Being back in South Lake Tahoe has given new meaning to my motto “Inspiration for life…”
In all my photography, I strive to let that be a central theme, capturing life and capturing moments that will cause one to look back and be inspired to live more, to love more and appreciate those moments that made it all worthwhile.
My photography is a mix between spontaneous and editorial as I love to showcase the natural beauty of the area combined with dramatic lighting and elegant poses and settings that bring out that ‘wow’ shot that every bride needs. I love the opportunity to be creative, genuine and fun.
I look forward to being a part of your day, creating friendships in the process, not just clients.
I know that Jorik Blom Photography will be able to capture your day beautifully.
