About Eli Suzuki-Gill Photography

Eli Suzuki-Gill Photography

Owner, Head Photographer

Your wedding day is filled with once-in-a-lifetime moments, and I’m here to capture them in a way that feels natural, effortless, and truly you. With a calm presence and an eye for storytelling, I focus on the real, unscripted moments—the quiet hand squeezes, the deep belly laughs, the happy tears—so you can relive them for years to come. My approach is simple: Be a steady, supportive presence, document your day with care, and make sure you feel comfortable in front of the camera. Whether you're camera-shy or love being in the spotlight, I'll guide when needed and step back when the magic happens naturally.

Based in the greater Los Angeles area, I photograph weddings in Southern California and beyond. If you're looking for a photographer who’s not just behind the camera but fully invested in your story, let’s connect—I’d love to hear all about your plans! Let’s make something beautiful together.

Eli was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the moment we first spoke, Eli's communication style was incredibly clear, generous, understanding, consultative, and open-minded. He listened closely to our vision and worked to bring it to life. The quality of Eli's work is truly unique, niche, visionary, and explorative. He has such a innovative eye for capturing the special moments of our day in a way that feels both authentic and artful. Eli was extremely organized in planning out our photo timeline, keeping everything moving smoothly without overlooking any of the moments we wanted captured. He is one of the most kindhearted and compassionate people we've ever met, and we felt so fortunate to have him there to document our special day. We couldn't be happier with the results and would recommend Eli Suzuki-Gill Photography to any couple looking for a truly exceptional wedding photographer.

Eli was an absolute pleasure to work with for our engagement pictures. From the very beginning, Eli was always responsive, super helpful, and super nice throughout the entire planning process. On the day of the shoot, Eli made us feel incredibly comfortable in front of the camera and truly cared about capturing our special moment in the best way possible. He paid special attention to every detail and knew how to properly light our photos. We were so in love with the final results and we can’t wait for our wedding to see the pictures he will take. I would highly recommend Eli to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.
Exceptional Wedding Photographer! WOW!

We were thrilled to have Eli as our wedding photographer! His relaxed manner and constant smile made the whole experience enjoyable. Eli has a wonderful ability to focus on capturing natural interactions, steering clear of overly cheesy poses, which was exactly what we were looking for. Our wedding ceremony took place at the Santa Barbara courthouse, and with 60 of our closest friends and family in attendance, Eli documented the intimate atmosphere. One of the highlights of our experience was when he surprised me by showing up at my hair appointment unannounced. It was such a thoughtful gesture, and he managed to capture special moments with my family that I will cherish forever. His willingness to go above and beyond throughout the entire day truly impressed us! Eli's photography style is modern and simple, featuring clean lines and natural colors that beautifully reflect the essence of our wedding day. He even brought along a second photographer for the ceremony, which was fantastic! This ensured that every precious moment was documented from multiple angles, and we are so glad he did. We can’t wait to plan our next party so that Eli can be there to capture every special moment again. If you're looking for a dedicated and talented photographer who is genuinely passionate about his craft, we wholeheartedly recommend Eli! Thank you for making our wedding day so memorable!
A True Professional!

For most two-hour photo sessions, I typically send proofs within two business days and final photos within two weeks. Additional retouching will add days to this timeline. For weddings and several-hour-long events, I typically send proofs within a week and final photos within 30 days.

Yes! Some clients of mine have made stop-motion videos, others have kept small copies of all the photos from our session for a more complete way to remember their special day, and others use it to see more options from a particular moment.

Yes, I keep a backup of all the edited photos I send you for at least a year and can keep them indefinitely. I keep them backed up physically and on multiple cloud platforms to ensure your images are always safe.

We'll talk about this on our planning call(s) together! Every wedding is different, so I collect what I need based on your day. They typically include: 1. Your wedding planner and day-of coordinator's contact information 2. The day’s schedule 3. The venue location and contact information 4. If you have one, your “must-have” photo wishlist

Yes! I have a handful of galleries from all sorts of weddings. Let's find one that fits yours best! Whether you're inviting several hundred guests or you're doing a simple elopement, I have a gallery for you.

Yes! I recommend this by default for weddings over 100 people. A second photographer benefits everyone: Double coverage of your ceremony, an assistant for family and post-ceremony portraits, and added freedom and security for us as photographers to be more creative when capturing your day. I also tap into my network for backups to ensure that you have someone you approve of in case I can't make it. So far, I have *never* had to call in a backup!

Yes! You’ll save money by bundling both shoots together, and this will help us get to know each other. That way, you’re nice and comfortable on your big day.
