REAL PEOPLE. WILD PLACES. BEAUTIFUL PHOTOGRAPHS.

Hi, I’m Roya, a Pasadena-based photographer specializing in documentary-inspired wedding, couples, and portrait photography throughout Los Angeles, Southern California, and beyond. With more than 18 years of experience, my work is rooted in authentic connection, thoughtful storytelling, and an appreciation for the people and places that make each story unique. My approach blends documentary photography with natural, intuitive direction, allowing moments to unfold organically while creating photographs that feel both artful and honest.

I'm drawn to the beautifully unscripted moments: windblown hair, spontaneous laughter, nervous hands, muddy shoes, quiet embraces, and all the little details that often mean the most. Whether documenting a wedding, a relationship, a family, or a meaningful chapter of life, my goal is to create timeless images that capture not just how it looked, but how it felt.

Your story is already worth remembering. I'm here to document it.

HEY, I'M ROYA!

β€œWith more than 18 years behind the camera and a background in fine art, photojournalism, and commercial photography, I bring an experienced eye and an intuitive, documentary approach to every story I photograph.”

My work is influenced by the natural world, a love of travel, and the belief that meaningful photographs don't have to feel staged.

From intimate celebrations to wide-open landscapes and familiar backyards, my goal remains the same: to create photographs that feel unmistakably yours. I’m happiest when photography gets me outside. Mountains, deserts, coastlines, or backyard adventures. I love photographing people in places that make them feel something. If your idea of a photo session involves hiking, getting a little dirty, or jumping in the water, I'm in. And if you'd rather stay home, drink wine, and hang out in your own backyard? I'm into that too. The point isn't the adventure. It's making photographs that feel like you.

Whether you're planning a wedding, dreaming up a portrait session, or simply have a story worth documenting, I'd love to hear what you have in mind.
