Hey! I’m so stoked that you’ve found your way to my little corner of the inter webs. 
I am a wedding photographer based out of Southern California with a soft spot for intimate weddings + out of the box couples. My passion is capturing the moments, the feelings, and the person you are most passionate about. I strive to give you the best experience as possible by making you feel comfortable in front of my camera. Trust me, I know how awkward getting your pictures taken can be (flashback to my emo high school senior portraits). You’re marrying your best friend, so taking your photos should be fun, effortless and authentic. Just think of me as one of your best friends that happens to have a super nice camera. I’m here to hold your hand through the planning process and point you toward the best wedding vendors that I’ve had the pleasure of working with. As a wedding photographer it has been such a privilege and honor to make new friends, geek out over the same things, and turn moments into memories. I can't wait to take this journey with you! So make yourself at home and take a look around! 

WE ARE THE PERFECT FIT IF...

Your idea of adventure is chasing waves and
racing to catch that last bit of sunlight.

Photography is a huge part of your wedding day. Every photographer is different and each have an approach that might not be the same as others. I know that choosing the right wedding photographer is not an easy decision for most. That's why I'm here to help and make sure that we're the perfect fit. Before a couple books with me, I always set aside time to just meet, hangout and get to know them over some coffee (or virtually through skype or a phone call). I'm here to answer any questions you might have!

When we first talked to Justin, he explained his shoots as being like "hanging out with a friend who happens to have a camera". And he was just that. Our engagement shoot was each of our firsts and Justin helped us feel so comfortable and at ease. This came right through the pictures. Justin's photos bring out genuine and natural moments that totally represent us as a couple. His editing was simple, precise, and only helped to amplify these moments. Throughout the process, from engagement shoot to wedding shoot, Justin was kind, fun, patient, and professional - we couldn't have asked for a better photographer nor could we have been happier with the photographs.

Joanna + Kevin

Such a sweet spirit and awesome talent! He captures very precious moments and incorporates lovely light and composition... his style is a great blend of editorial and can be cinematic without being brooding. Isn’t that what you want in a wedding photo? Light, bright, and full of joy!

Leslie + Kevin

While planning our destination wedding, I stumbled upon Justin's Instagram account while researching wedding photographers. I loved how he captured couples naturally and beautifully. After meeting with him for our engagement session, we knew right away we wanted him to document our wedding as well. He was easygoing, super fun, and just a really great guy all around! We were floored when we received our engagement photos -- the way he captured our personalities, our vibe, and his use of natural light. We received so many compliments after sharing the photos with our friends and family that we had no doubt our wedding photos would also turn out beautifully. We trusted him fully from the get-go and that's so important when choosing a wedding photographer. I promise you will be ecstatic to work with him and recommend him 100% to document special occasions such as your wedding day.

Kate + Houston

Justin is everything you need for the big wedding day. He is professional, passionate, knowledgable, and artistic. His photos are very soft, romantic and not over posed. He curates his poses carefully to make sure they come genuine and sincere. He captures the love and the physical attraction between a couple so accurately, and he is not afraid to go in the bushes or turn you around just a little more to capture the perfect angle.  It has been a pleasure working with him through our engagement and wedding photoshoots. He made my stiff husband feel at ease with his friendly mannerism.
120% Satisfaction Guaranteed!

STEPHANIE + KIEL

The advice I would give couples when they're trying to decide to book with Justin Critz Photography is, BOOK HIM!! Justin IS absolutely amazing and HIS work is breath taking. HE captured every moment perfectly. When WE received OUR photos WE WERE able to relive every step and moment of that day. I cannot thank HIM enough for such beautiful photos.

CHRISTINE + ANDY

"We absolutely LOVED having Justin as our wedding photographer! He took time to get to know our personalities, which helped make the photo sessions fun and enjoyable. Totally recommend him if you are looking for a photographer!"

RACHEL + CHRIS

JUSTIN WAS AMAZING. NOT ONLY WAS HE SUPER PLEASANT AND EXCITED ABOUT OUR WEDDING, BUT HE MADE US FEEL SO AT EASE THE DAY OF! HE POSED US NATURALLY AND LISTENED TO WHAT WE WANTED. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE PHOTOS ARE AMAZING. HE HAD SNEAK PEEKS FOR US THE DAY AFTER AND EVERY SINGLE PHOTO THAT WE'VE SEEN HAS TAKEN MY BREATH AWAY. WE TOOK PICTURES INDOORS, OUTDOORS, AT SUNSET, DURING THE DAY, AT NIGHT -AND EACH ONE IS TRULY INCREDIBLE. HIS USE OF LIGHT IS AMAZING AND I JUST LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT WORKING WITH HIM. I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE IN A HEARTBEAT! THANK YOU JUSTIN FOR DOCUMENTING OUR MOST IMPORTANT DAY IN SUCH A WONDERFUL WAY!

ALEXA + ERIC

LOVE LOVE LOVE JUSTIN!! HE IS VERY PROFESSIONAL, TALENTED, AND HAS A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR! I HIRED HIM TO DO MY ENGAGEMENT AND WEDDING PHOTOS, AND IT WAS A TRUE PLEASURE TO WORK WITH HIM. HE TOOK HIS TIME TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT. HE ALSO GOT OUR ENGAGEMENT AND WEDDING PICTURES BACK TO US IN A VERY TIMELY MANNER. I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYBODY THAT IS IN NEED OF A PHOTOGRAPHER!
