Hi there, I'm Samantha Klose a Santa Monica Wedding Photographer and I’m so excited you’re here!! I would love to share some fun facts about me! Most days you can find me in comfy yoga pants with a mug of coffee, sitting in front of my computer, hanging with my two ADORABLE dogs, while editing photos. People often refer to me as fun and silly, with a big heart! The things I am most passionate about in life are my beautiful daughter Victoria and my very talented husband Jay (you can find his work under Cinematography). My family is my world, without them, I wouldn’t be the human I am today. They keep me grounded (and on my toes - always)!

We have over 10 years experience shooting high end portrait and wedding photography. From engagements on the beach to weddings in museums, we want to capture the light in your love story.

The images we create together will communicate an emotion, a feeling, a touch, smell, glance, desire, memory and take you back to the moment that image was captured. My work stands out because my images communicate. In 20 years of being a professional photographer I've learned how to make my subjects glow and look amazing with lighting, posing and timing. I will make you feel at ease while we're having fun, this communicates in the images. I know how to balance the technical with the artistic and this gets results that my clients are thrilled with!

To me photographs are special. They’re more than simple images, but they’re precious heirlooms full of memories, stories, and emotions that allow one to experience this all in one glance. It connects people to other people, communities, and to God. As a result, I believe it is an incredible honor to be a herald for you. There’s a deep level of beauty and genuineness within your story. Therefore, rather than molding your story into a false narrative to fit a standard wedding template, I’m a firm believer in artistically preserving your story of one of the most important days of your lives.

When we pick up a camera, our goal is to make an art of memory preservation. During the events that you’ll forever carry to your future, we provide a doorway into those joyous memories, accessible from here on out. We have cultivated an instinct for creating salient images. We will use this instinct to retrieve those fleeting moments of happiness on your most important days and make them permanent.

Hi! I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and have been living in Los Angeles (currently in beautiful Pasadena) for the past 10+ years. So how did I get into wedding photography? With a background as an actor and writer, I've dedicated my entire life to telling stories. In taking photos of people, I genuinely feel lucky getting the chance to help others tell their unique story. My passion for connecting with people through the lens evolved from taking headshots for actors to photographing families, happenings, real life moments... and eventually the most “real life, real moment” day of all... weddings!

There is something genuine and beautiful about people when they are in love. I love the anticipation and excitement for the bride and groom to see each other for the first time on their wedding day, and it is my privilege to be in the special position as a wedding photographer to tell the story in beautiful images. Love also extends to friends and family on the wedding day, and it's amazing to be able to capture their pride and happiness through photographs.

Hi there! My name is Kinsey. I believe in living a life you love, which brought me to begin photographing people in the first place. I began my photography journey ten years ago, when I bought my first camera at 18. It never left my side, and I began photographing anything, everything - in love and obsessed with the idea of documenting the love and connection we share with each other, the intimate, in-between moments, and the things we communicate without speaking.

Hola, I’m Belinda (Bee). To get to know me short and sweet, my life is all about my faith, family, and what I love/enjoy to do. My passion for photography started in my junior year of high school when I picked up my first film camera and was taught by the best (shoutout to Mrs.Cordova). I haven’t stopped taking photos since. I started my career while studying the art at Long Beach University and that’s when I questioned myself as to what was going to be my favorite subject.

I’m Kelly Balch, an international wedding & editorial storyteller. A curious empath who loves to hear all truths from different walks of life, a hopeless romantic with a buzz cut, and I have the most profound faith in love and truth. While my heart is in the present, my head is in the cosmos. I’m unnecessarily obsessed with tattoos, coasters, and waffles. I am a big believer in energy, synchronicities, and that everything happens for a reason. If you’ve come this far on my page and felt a little bit of a connection or you’re wearing a smile, then I stand true to that belief. So let’s meet, collaborate, and make beautiful magic together.

I desire to tell a true narrative with honest and powerful images, where one photo can tell an entire story. I have a passion for personal meaningful relationships, am highly community centered and have a love of people. Inclusivity lives here and I thrive knowing that with my craft, there are no bounds, the sky is the limit and the stories are endless. A photograph can leave one feeling a plethora of emotions, a visual representation of reality. It may be happy, it may be painful but whatever the case, it is real.

I had always wanted to start my own photography business but never jumped in all the way. Being here in LA made me realize that now is the time. I don’t want to wait any longer and I needed to stop being afraid. So I asked Matt if that’s something he would be interested in doing with me for real. We have spent the last couple months dreaming and planning and learning, ready to dive in deep. We are passionate about marriage, photography, and people.
