Hey, welcome!!

Hello, I’m Khoa /kwa/

I’m here to help you achieve the dream vision for your wedding, preserve every fleeting moment, and make this experience enjoyable!

I’m Here
For You!

Your photos should be all about the genuine moments that make you feel – a look into each other’s eyes, a soft touch, the gut laughs, and ugly cries! All made up for a beautiful love story and will always remind you of how much you love each other!

I’m not just another vendor but a friend on your big day and the help you can count on through this planning journey.

I want to capture your story with 110% energy and celebrate with you these special moments!

Behind the camera

I moved to the States from Vietnam in 2013 and am so lucky to call San Diego my new home!

I love all things weddings because witnessing couples’ happiness brings me joy and fuels my creativity.

I want to create photographs that can stand the test of time so couples can relive their day years from now and for generations to come.

Let’s hang out, tell me your story and create something beautiful together.

A Little Bit About Me

Life is a great adventure!

I love spending time outdoors chasing light, having campfires, and sleeping under stars.

Bubu

This is Bubu, my group of college friends who traveled all over the place with me and showed me what friendship really means. Coming from different backgrounds but we always respect and be there for each other. Our college life includes many late night talks, gut laugh, group studies, skipping classes for road trips, all made up for a good time!

Life changing experience

Back in 2010, I biked around Vietnam for a month for a volunteer project and I’m forever grateful for this journey. Through this experience I was fascinated by human connections and friendships I made along the way.

It’s giving and helping others that make my heart so full.

Outdoor enthusiast

My love for nature has grown deeper since I moved to the States. It’s always been my go-to when it comes to seeking comfort, clarity, and inspiration. Whenever I feel stuck, this random quote at Mt Woodson is always in the back of my head:

“May your search through nature lead you to yourself.”

Live for Experience

Experiences over things for me on any day. Forever grateful for all the experiences I’ve had, crazy decisions I’ve made, and wonderful stories come from those. It’s what makes life richer in every way.

Fun Facts

I have been collecting stamps for over 20 years now and still going strong!

I like running and have run three full marathons.

I love sending/receiving Christmas cards and keep them for eternity.

As a tropical guy, I love love love taking photos in snow!

On a mission to visit all 63 US national parks with my wife, we are currently at number 12th.

Kind Words From Couples

Our daughter was married a week ago and I cannot sing the praises of Khoa and his team enough. They were there from hair and makeup before the wedding until the sparkler send off. Constantly moving, always professional and fun to be with. The sneak peeks we’ve seen are absolutely stunning and we couldn’t be more pleased. I would recommend Khoa to everyone without hesitation. Thank you for making such an incredible day even more so with the memories you captured. We love you!!!

Ruth, Mother of the Bride
