Southern California wedding photographer

Coastal light. Honest movement. A story with room to breathe.

CDTPhoto serves Southern California as an equal home market for celebrations along the coast, in the desert, and at estates throughout the region.

The approach

Direction when it helps. Space when it matters.

The approach stays grounded in real interaction: enough direction to feel confident, enough space for the unscripted photographs to happen naturally.
