Coverage Built Around Your Day

Every wedding runs on its own rhythm, so your coverage should too. Most couples choose a 6 or 8 hour package, which comfortably covers getting ready, the ceremony, portraits, and a full reception. We tailor from there. Multi-day and cultural celebrations often call for more, and we regularly photograph 10 to 12 hour days and multi-day events for Indian, Jewish, and other traditional weddings where every ritual deserves to be documented. Tell us what your day looks like and we'll build coverage that fits it, not the other way around.

Why Add a Second Photographer

A second photographer is an optional add-on, and for many weddings it's worth it. One photographer can only stand in one place. With two, we capture the same moment from two angles at once: the bride's face and the groom's reaction, the wide scene and the intimate detail. A second shooter also means we can be in two places at the same time. If you and your partner are getting ready in different locations, we photograph both, so nothing from those first nervous, excited hours goes unrecorded. For larger weddings, fast timelines, or big families, the extra coverage pays for itself.

Where We Shoot

We're based in Orange County and photograph weddings across all of Southern California, from the coast to the mountains to downtown Los Angeles. We also travel for destination weddings. A few of the venues we love shooting at: the historic Padua Hills Theatre, Gold Mountain Manor in Big Bear, and Trump National in Palos Verdes. Getting married somewhere else? Even better. We know how to walk into a new venue and find its best light fast. Explore more of the venues we shoot.

“Every last photo, whether it be of the wedding party, the ceremony, or the photos of my husband and I are truly amazing. The different angles and thoughtful editing lead to some of the best photos we could have asked for. I had friends who got married before us say they wish they could have used DMJ Photography because the photos were so beautiful. David was so great to work with, completely professional and incredibly talented.”
