Southern California Wedding Photographer
Southern California is one of the most extraordinary places in the world to get married. From oceanfront ceremonies on the Malibu coast to vineyard celebrations in Temecula, desert elopements in Joshua Tree, and elegant ballrooms in Beverly Hills — every wedding here has its own character. Based in Orange County, I photograph weddings across all of SoCal with a timeless, editorial approach.

Wedding Regions Across Southern California
Orange County Coast
My home base. Laguna Beach cliffs, Dana Point headlands, Pelican Hill, the Montage, Franciscan Gardens, and the Ritz-Carlton. Orange County offers a perfect mix of coastal elegance and garden romance for weddings of every size.
Los Angeles & Malibu
From the rooftop venues of downtown LA to the cliffside estates of Malibu, Los Angeles weddings are as diverse as the city itself. I've photographed at iconic venues like Calamigos Ranch, Saddle Peak Lodge, and the Getty Center.
Temecula Wine Country
Rolling vineyards, rustic barrel rooms, and sunset ceremonies with mountain views. Temecula is Southern California's answer to Napa — and it's just an hour from Orange County. Venues like Ponte, Leoness, and Europa Village are stunning.
Palm Springs & Desert
Mid-century modern architecture, mountain backdrops, and golden desert light. Palm Springs and Joshua Tree weddings have an energy all their own — minimal, dramatic, and unforgettable.
Santa Barbara
The American Riviera. Red-tile roofs, ocean views, and Mediterranean charm. Santa Barbara courthouse weddings are iconic, and the surrounding wine country offers world-class vineyard venues.
San Diego
From the historic Hotel del Coronado to waterfront ceremonies at Liberty Station, San Diego combines laid-back coastal vibes with architectural charm. Perfect for couples who want a relaxed, sun-soaked celebration.
Travel Throughout SoCal
Based in Irvine, I'm centrally located to reach anywhere in Southern California. Orange County and nearby LA venues are within easy reach. Temecula, Palm Springs, Santa Barbara, and San Diego are all within my regular travel radius. For destination weddings further afield, I'm happy to travel anywhere — just ask.
