Diane Askew ~ Caswell & Askew Studio

Hi! My name is Diane Askew and I am a wedding photographer in Sonoma, CA. I have owned and opertated Caswell & Askew Studio for over nine years now - during which time I have photographed over 300 wine country weddings.

In addition to showcasing my work on this blog, I also hope to educate couples as they organize their wedding photography coverage, often from thousands of miles away. I hope to help shed light on some often-confusing aspects of wedding photography, helping couples to make some important decisions armed with the most helpful information possible. I know what works and what doesn't. I have gained invaluable knowledge over the years, having encountered just about every possible "situation"! I truly believe that there is no substitute for experience when it comes to wedding photography. We have to be able to handle the pressure - along with the time-constraints, changes, etc. - that often accompany weddings, with the greatest of ease and confidence. There is no situation that I can't handle, which means that every wedding I photograph ends up flowing beautfully, no matter what arises.

Since I spend time behind the camera whenever possible, in addition to my work you can expect to see photographs from my birding trips, volunteer work at a local animal shelter, fine art, my son and two dogs, etc.

Please check back frequently as this blog evolves into an informative, entertaining, and useful resource for engaged couple around the world.


♥ Brian & Jennifer | Cline Cellars, Sonoma

I have to commend Jennifer for her ability to plan a wedding while living in another country and making all the arrangements in a language she is just beginning to learn. As soon as I met Jennifer, I understood how she was able to accomplish so much under such challenging circumstances. She is energetic, vital and has a wonderful zest for life. Nothing was going to stand in the way of one of the most important days of her life. And, Jennifer did indeed get the wedding of her dreams…it went beautifully, flawlessly. I think her photographs came out beautifully, too. Here are but a few…

The beautiful flowers were arranged by the talented - and ever-so sweet - Maki Gilman of Viola Flowers in Sonoma.

I just love the red interior of the bridal room/converted train car. How fun!

There's an etherial quality to this place. The way the light filters through the Weaping Willow Trees and refects off the water is magical
