I am a Los Angeles based wedding photographer serving clients throughout Southern California and beyond. I started my professional journey over 5 years ago with press shoots for local indie artists earning publications in Billboard, NPR, among others. At the beginning of 2023 I switched to weddings and haven’t turned back.
I am a hybrid photographer shooting on both digital and film. You’ll notice for every wedding & non-wedding package I include some sort of film. I shoot on 35mm, 120 (medium format), and Polaroid film. I love the depth and texture of a film photo- something a digital photo cannot replicate and even in post production it doesn’t come close. Another thing you may notice as you look through this website is that I love color. I attract colorful people and they tend to look good in color. I want to show the vibrance of your personality on Portra 800, Portra 400 and Kodak gold.
With my love of film integrated into my love of portraiture, I hope to create a moving experience for you that allows for me to best capture your personality and the genuine atmosphere of your wedding day. It’s imperative that you be as present as you can on your big day. Relax and enjoy yourselves while I’ll do all the heavy work.

Love, Mariah
