Lead Photographer: Mike Yoon
I got into photography when film cameras were transitioning into digital. There was something special and precious about film that I feel modern day cameras lack. It was in this start, my roots of capturing moments frame by frame, that storytelling became an ethos I would grow to follow in my years of developing this hobby into a profession.
So how does this directly relate to my direction and style of photography? Even though I consider myself a professional portrait photographer, I am first a storyteller and an artist trying to capture images that resonate with meaning. My early years as a hobbyist with Kodak Gold & FujiFilm Portra carries over to the look and feel of my digital images.
I believe in enjoying the moment regardless of the assignment. I do my best to create in the moment without having to re-create or stage moments and work towards connecting with all my clients. I believe getting to know each other is a critical part of creating amazing and genuine images.

Photography was not my first choice, neither was it my second or third. But throughout my life of bouncing around different careers and jobs, I’ve finally found a sense of meaningful purpose and home in life I’ve been looking for, with photography. When I’m not working weddings, you can find me as a photographer at Disneyland taking photos of numerous families, which taught me how to really connect with clients and make each session uniquely special. I don’t want to just capture your photos, I want to build a personal connection at a level where you can fully trust me to capture all the raw emotions felt each moment of your special day!
