Engagement & Wedding Photography

Orange County engagement
and wedding photography.

From save-the-date portraits to first look, vows, family formals, and the quiet in-between moments, I photograph couples across Orange County with a calm, observant, editorial approach.

The approach

One photographer for the full story.

Engagement sessions help you get comfortable before the wedding and give you photographs for save-the-date cards, wedding websites, invitations, and announcements. Wedding coverage stays focused on the real day: the people, the emotion, the details, and the moments you did not see happening.

  • Engagement sessions available on their own or with wedding coverage
  • Complimentary one-hour post-wedding session when you book engagement and wedding together
  • Unlimited hand-edited, high-resolution wedding images
  • Optional second shooter for larger weddings
  • Heirloom fine-art album available
  • Sneak peek within 48 hours

How it fits together

Engagement first, wedding day next, then one more session when the pressure is off.

This keeps the experience simple: photos for the announcement stage, complete wedding-day storytelling, and an extra portrait session afterward when you are not rushing between the ceremony and reception.

01 / Engagement

Photos before the wedding

A relaxed engagement session for save-the-date cards, your wedding website, invitations, announcements, or simply a set of portraits that feels like this season of your life.

02 / Wedding day

Calm, complete coverage

Natural, editorial coverage from getting ready through the last dance, with the right amount of direction for portraits and the right amount of space for real moments.

03 / Included bonus

Free post-wedding session

Book engagement and wedding coverage together and receive a complimentary one-hour post-wedding session. Use it for newlywed portraits, a second Orange County location, anniversary-style photos, or a playful ruin-the-dress idea if that fits you.

Questions

Frequently asked

How much does engagement and wedding photography cost?
Every wedding is different, so I build custom quotes around coverage hours, locations, guest count, and whether you want engagement photos, a second shooter, an album, or extra sessions.
Can we book an engagement session without booking a wedding?
Yes. Engagement sessions can be booked on their own for save-the-date cards, wedding websites, announcements, or simply updated portraits together.
Is the engagement session included with wedding coverage?
Yes. If you book me for wedding coverage, we can include an engagement session so you are comfortable in front of the camera before the wedding day.
What is the complimentary one-hour post-wedding session?
Couples who book engagement and wedding coverage together receive a complimentary one-hour post-wedding session. Use it for relaxed newlywed portraits, a different Orange County location, anniversary-style photos, or a playful ruin-the-dress idea if that fits your style.
How many photos will we receive?
You will receive every hand-edited image from your wedding, typically 400-800+ depending on coverage hours. Engagement and post-wedding sessions are delivered in their own private online galleries.
When will we receive our photos?
Wedding galleries are delivered within 4-6 weeks, with a sneak peek of 15-20 images within 48 hours. Engagement and post-wedding sessions are usually delivered sooner, depending on season and schedule.
Do you travel for weddings and engagements?
Absolutely. I am based in Irvine and photograph weddings and engagement sessions throughout Orange County, Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, Los Angeles, San Diego, and beyond.
