ABOUT Justin
I've always been drawn to all things creative, but didn't pick up a camera until my senior year in high school to document a trip my friends and I were taking to San Francisco. I had no idea how to correctly work my camera, but instantly fell in love with the concept of capturing moments in an artistic way. I became obsessed with photographing anything and anyone willing to get in front of my lens. Still lifes, landscapes, pets, people. People. What started out as a passion for photography quickly turned into a passion for people and the love they share.

What I can say is how incredibly fulfilling photographing weddings all over the west coast for the past twelve years has been. I'm thrilled to have you here and can't wait to work with you!

Hey friends! A couple weeks ago, I had the complete honor of photographing Lydia + Gene’s wedding at Luce Loft in San Diego! This place has been on my photography bucket list and I couldn’t have picked better first couple to get to photograph there! These two are so sweet, grounded and kind. They made […]
