The same coast,
without the coast price.
We are on the Orange County coast most weekends of the season and we are based in Riverside, which is the whole argument: an eight-hour day here is $2,829 instead of the $3,500 to $4,500 an Orange County studio quotes, and there is no travel fee. Bilingual, documentary, from $2,200.
2027 Season Rate — 15% off. Book by November 30, 2026. Weddings from $2,829.
Why we cost less
than the studio down the road.
Orange County's median household income is 25 to 36% higher than Riverside County's, and photographers price to the market they sit in. That is genuinely the entire difference. An eight-hour wedding day from an Orange County studio runs $3,500 to $4,500; the same day from us is $2,829.
We are forty-five minutes from the coast and we are on it most weekends anyway — the Laguna sunset sessions run every season and fill months out. So there is no travel fee, and there is no version of this where you pay extra for the drive.
The one thing we will not do is imply a history we do not have. Our full wedding days have been in the Inland Empire and Santa Barbara. On the Orange County coast we shoot couples, families and elopements constantly, and everything on this page is ours.
Orange County questions.
How much does a wedding photographer cost in Orange County?
Orange County studios quote $3,500 to $4,500 for an eight-hour day, and $5,500 to $6,000 for a full ten hours with a second photographer and an album. Ours is $2,829 for eight hours and $3,536 for ten hours with photo and video together. The gap is not quality — it is that a studio prices to the market it sits in, and we sit in Riverside.
Do you charge a travel fee to Orange County?
No. Laguna, Newport, Irvine, Anaheim, Santa Ana, Huntington Beach and everywhere between them are covered with no travel fee, the same as the Inland Empire. We are on the OC coast most weekends of the season anyway.
Have you photographed weddings in Orange County?
We photograph the Orange County coast constantly — beach sessions at Treasure Island in Laguna run every season, and our elopement and courthouse work covers the whole region. Full wedding days have so far been Inland Empire and Santa Barbara. We would rather tell you that than show you somebody else's OC wedding and let you assume.
Where do you shoot in Orange County?
Treasure Island Beach in Laguna is the one we know best — the coves, the tide pools and the forty minutes before the sun goes into the water. Beyond that: Crystal Cove, the Newport back bay, the Old Orange County Courthouse in Santa Ana for civil ceremonies, and whatever venue you have already booked.
¿Hablan español?
Sí, completamente. Francisco y el equipo trabajan en español e inglés, y una buena parte de las familias que fotografiamos en la costa hablan español. Bodas desde $2,200, quinceañeras desde $1,800 y elopements desde $1,224. También por WhatsApp al (951) 478-2639.
What about a smaller day — an elopement or a beach session?
Elopement coverage starts at $1,224 for four hours, which is the right shape for a courthouse ceremony plus portraits on the coast. Sunset mini sessions at Laguna are $320 for twenty-five minutes, and they run on set evenings through the season.
More: the Laguna Beach gallery, courthouse and civil ceremonies including the Old Orange County Courthouse in Santa Ana, and sunset mini sessions at Laguna.
