A Campaign Rooted in Nature: Clean Origin at Sea Ranch Lodge

Earlier this summer, I had the opportunity to photograph Clean Origin’s latest bridal and engagement collection in a place that feels quietly majestic—Sea Ranch Lodge, nestled along the windswept Northern California coast.

This shoot was part of a new campaign celebrating the brand’s commitment to sustainability, ethical craftsmanship, and timeless design. Every image we created was grounded in those same values: intentional, honest, and connected to the landscape.

Sea Ranch, with its iconic architecture and endless horizon lines, gave us the perfect canvas. Clean Origin’s lab-grown diamonds stood out not just for their brilliance, but for what they represent—modern love stories built on integrity and care. We chose to work with natural light and minimal styling to allow the pieces to shine: radiant-cut solitaires, classic round stones, and elegant settings that felt at home against the backdrop of wild grass and open skies.

The vision for this campaign came to life thanks to the thoughtful direction of Wed Vibes, who brought a sense of ease and clarity to every frame. Hair and makeup by La Di Da Beauty leaned into effortless elegance, and our real-life couple Mari & Wyatt (@marandwy) brought authenticity and warmth that you simply can’t fake.

I always believe that great campaign imagery should feel personal. These photos aren’t just about rings—they’re about a sense of place, a feeling of calm, and a vision of love that’s rooted in intention.

As always, every image was captured on my LEICA cameras—tools that allow me to translate not just how these moments looked, but how they felt.

Grateful to this fabulous team, with every single team member going all out to make magic happen:
