YOUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHED WITH HEART AND INTENTION
MEET
YOUR
WEDDING & ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER
I’m Svanna a West Coast photographer who believes your love story deserves to be documented with warmth, intention, and honesty. My journey into photography began after my own wedding when my husband and I left with only one blurry photo of our first kiss. That ache shaped everything about the way I photograph now. I’m deeply protective of my couples and committed to making sure you walk away with images that feel like the day you lived.
My approach blends cinematic natural imagery with vintage nostalgia, guiding you gently while letting real moments unfold. I’m a wife, mom, and combat sports competitor who finds beauty in the balance of softness and strength. I love old cameras, Super8 film, and anything that carries history and emotion.
Above all I want you to feel seen, supported, and completely yourselves. I advocate for your vision, create calm where you need it, and document the connection that makes your love yours. If you feel everything and want your photos to reflect that we will be a perfect fit.

Film brings a softness and depth that feels timeless and Super8 adds movement nostalgia and emotion in a way that digital alone cannot. These additions are perfect for couples who want their gallery to feel warm artistic and full of memory rich texture.

“Svanna is seriously the best, and choosing her as our wedding photographer was one of the easiest and best decisions we made.
From the very beginning, she made us feel completely at home. It never felt awkward or overly “business-like” it honestly felt like hanging out with a friend who just happens to be insanely talented.
From our engagement session all the way through our wedding day, we laughed nonstop. She has such a fun, calming energy and makes being in front of the camera feel so natural. Because of that, our sessions were relaxed and enjoyable, and the photos reflect that perfectly."
