I couldn't be happier with our wedding photography experience! My husband and I are both pretty camera shy, but our photographer made us feel completely at ease from beginning to end. Even with a bit of unexpected rain, they found the most beautiful ways to capture the day—and the results are better than I ever imagined. Some of the shots still make me smile every time I look at them. Now that it’s all over, there are a few things I might change about the day, but choosing our photographer definitely isn’t one of them. I’m so grateful for the way our wedding was captured—it truly looked incredible.

We were so lucky to find PKA Photo and Video to capture the memories of our wedding day! We had an intimate wedding on Coronado Beach with just our family members, and we absolutely love the highlight video Mia made for us! What made it even more special was how she was able to incorporate the personal song we wrote and sang with each other. Hearing the groom's guitar strumming and our own voices singing the duet in the background was so meaningful. Listening to our vows, (which were clearly recorded - by the way), and seeing the beautiful video clips of our family on the beach is a cherished gift. We are so blessed to have this video to replay when we look back on this most precious day of our lives. It makes us so emotional thinking about what happened to us with our previous videographer, and how they came to our rescue by agreeing to be our videographer at the last minute. We are truly grateful. Mia and LaRon are an amazing team, and we highly recommend their photography services!

Hello! I'm Natalie, a passionate documentary photographer dedicated to capturing the authentic and heartfelt moments of your special day. My approach to wedding photography is all about storytelling. I believe the most beautiful photos come from genuine, unscripted moments that reflect the true emotions and unique story of each individual couple.

I’m always inspired by the beauty of everyday moments and bring this inspiration into my work.

Hi, I’m Chris Wood—founder of SD Photo Studio and a wedding photographer with over 24 years of experience capturing authentic, timeless moments. Based in San Diego, I’ve had the honor of documenting weddings all across Southern California, In addition to my work behind the camera, I’ve spent the past 10 years teaching photography at UC San Diego, including courses in portrait photography. I believe the best photos come from a relaxed atmosphere and genuine connection. I’ll help you feel confident in front of the camera and deliver a final gallery that truly reflects your day.

My husband and I used Wedgewood for our wedding. They offered multiple vendors, but I knew after the first phone call with Chris, that he was going to be our photographer. He was very professional with a wealth of knowledge since he has so much experience with photographing weddings. He assured me that when you hire SD Photo Studio, you aren't just getting a new photographer that he sends out, you get him and his expert team. We had a few phone calls, making sure every detail was perfect and what we wanted. He would always give his opinion, but ultimately it is up to the client to decide. We pretty much let him do his thing, and during the entire wedding day, we didn't have to think about photography. He captured everything we wanted and more (even my husband watching the final minutes of the Celtics game). Wedding pictures are something you'll have for the rest of your life. I am so proud to have these pictures, and they were worth every penny. Too many great ones to choose, but I included a good range. Please don't hesitate to hire Chris and SD Photo Studio for your special day; you won't regret it!

I’m Cecilia, a photographer, entrepreneur, and creator. For me, photography is more than just my job, it’s a central part of who I am. Since I was a kid I’ve felt the need to document life as I see it, to capture beautiful moments that last. I am so in love with this art form in every sense. It brings me such joy and fulfillment to be able to document people’s stories and bring them to life through my lens. At the end of the day, I do this job out of love. Love for people, the earth, and connection. I want to capture who you are as people. Your energy and vibrancy are at the heart of what I do and I wouldn’t trade that for anything.

I believe that love inspires art. Your wedding day will most likely be a blur of joy, nerves, and excitement with some extraordinary moments in between. Using both film and digital mediums, I balance a combination of both editorial and photojournalistic styles with a fine art approach. This collaboration will allow you both to fully enjoy each and every moment, as we tell the story of your wedding day. Wedding photography is an investment that lasts a lifetime, it’s the part of your wedding day that lives on. This is your love story, told in a classic, authentic, and timeless way.

Here is your super sweet review: My husband and I love our engagement and wedding photos! I especially loved working with her as she is organized, professional, warm, so enthusiastic, and passionate about what she does!! She was also encouraging and made us feel comfortable during our engagement/maternity photo session and wedding day. I am so happy she was there on our wedding day, as she was a joy to be around and all of her pictures she sent us are beautiful!

I am so excited you decided to stop by! My name is Alyssa and I'm an elopement+wedding photographer currently based in SoCal. It's my mission to take photos of that high vibe, fun & goofy type of love that you have with your partner. My passion is portraying the true connection shared between the people in front of my lens with a photojournalistic flare. I love capturing small details and candid moments through natural-looking photos. These traits evoke a sense of nostalgia when looking at your photos years down the line!

Our experience was absolutely amazing. As someone who is not the biggest fan of taking pictures or very comfortable in front of cameras, I can tell you Alyssa made it feel like second nature. She was kind and very helpful the entire way. My husband and I have been together 5 years, and Alyssa has managed to capture our favorite picture together in all that time (and that was before the wedding) 10/10 recommend.

As a photographer, my goal is to capture stories in the form of images.

When I work with you on a photo project, my goal is to provide you with photographic records of those moments. I want you to be able to look back at your photos years from today and be able to relive that moment in time.
