This is about who you really are, not some polished version of you. I make photos and films that not only document your love but encapsulate the genuine emotions, joy, and romance that make each love story unique.

Hi, I'm James. I am a wedding photographer and filmmaker based in Southern California. My goal is to provide you with an authentic documentation of your wedding day that tells the story of your love in an artful way. I am inspired by the styles of contemporary art and editorial photography, as well as Cinéma vérité, a style of documentary filmmaking that literally translates to "truth cinema" or "truthful cinema."

he is your guy. James did a super sick edit on ours that turned out so amazing. He is super talented and his work isn't cliche like so many wedding videos can be."

James was amazing to work with. He was incredible at getting us comfortable in front of the camera. My face hurt from smiling so much after we had gotten our photos back."
"I can't even begin to describe how amazing our experience was.
Summer, Bride
He is capturing genuine moments. Every single photo I received back from james during my shoot had me speechless. I am so thankful that not only do I get to know James as a human now but also as the very talented, passionate, hardworking, creative photographer that he is."
