Wedding Photography
Our wedding photography service captures every emotional nuance from preparation to reception. We employ a documentary-style approach, blending into events to document genuine interactions while ensuring key moments like vows and first dances are preserved with artistic composition. With two decades of experience, we adapt to varying cultural traditions and venue challenges, delivering 600+ high-resolution images in a custom online gallery. Clients receive full printing rights and a curated slideshow set to music for immediate sharing.
Engagement Sessions
Engagement sessions focus on showcasing couples' unique relationships through natural environments. We guide clients to relaxed, authentic interactions while capturing flattering portraits suitable for save-the-date materials. Sessions typically last two hours and include 75+ edited images, with optional add-ons like sunset timing or location scouting for ceremony backdrops. This service also serves as an introductory experience to build comfort with the photographer before the wedding day.
Destination Weddings
Destination wedding coverage includes full-service documentation for events held outside our local area. We handle logistical coordination for international travel, with expertise in navigating diverse cultural ceremonies and environmental challenges. Packages include pre-trip consultations for location scouting, timeline optimization, and contingency planning for weather variables. Our single-photographer approach maintains consistency while ensuring comprehensive coverage through strategic positioning during key moments.
Family Portraits
Family portrait sessions emphasize natural interactions across multiple generations. We specialize in coordinating complex groupings while maintaining relaxed atmospheres, particularly during wedding weekends. Sessions incorporate both formal compositions and candid moments, with guidance on wardrobe coordination and location selection. Deliverables include a mix of posed and spontaneous images that capture familial relationships, with options for heirloom-quality album creation.
Bridal Portraits
Bridal portrait sessions focus on individual storytelling for pre-wedding preparation or standalone celebrations. We create flattering compositions that highlight personal style while incorporating meaningful details like heirloom jewelry or venue elements. Sessions include styling guidance and typically occur in natural light settings or venue-specific locations. The resulting images serve as both personal keepsakes and potential additions to wedding-day decor or announcements.

Report
Our wedding was a 'COVID wedding' and I was hesitant to make such a big investment for such a small wedding. But after working with Hooman and seeing the results, I was more than thrilled and would do it all over! Hooman is professional yet fun and thinks of every detail to not only capture great photos, but also to ensure the day goes smoothly. The photos are fantastic and we will cherish them for a lifetime!
