AKA: Your California Based Wedding Lovers
We're Justin and Zach, two best friends with a passion for photography and videography. We believe the best moments from your wedding day are the ones you actually got to live. Our job is simple: show up, blend in, and capture everything that made your day feel like yours — the nervous laughter, the happy tears, the dancing that went way too late. No over-directing. No stiff posing. Just honest, artful documentation of the people and moments you love most.
Hey there, we're your new favorite photo + film duo.

"Natural, relaxed, and expert guidance Justin was amazing to work with for both our maternity photoshoot and baby shower photos. He made the whole experience feel easy, relaxed, and natural, which really showed in the final pictures. He was great at coaching us through poses, finding the right locations, and helping us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We never felt awkward or overly staged… we felt just like ourselves. We’re so grateful to have these moments captured so beautifully and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer for maternity, engagement, wedding, or family photos."

"Working with Justin not only helped us capture moments from our campaign but also took the worry out of making sure we had enough content and video while we were focusing on other sides of our project. It was a great experience having him on our team, not only as a collaborator but as a person as well. We really enjoyed his vibe and would love to work with him again in the future."

"We cannot recommend JustLivingMedia enough! Justin is an absolute professional and a master of his craft. He worked entirely by himself on our wedding day while also being a groomsman, yet he somehow managed to be everywhere at once without ever being intrusive. He knew exactly how to direct us so nothing felt awkward or forced, and he caught every single epic moment on the dance floor completely solo. The turnaround time for our video was fantastic, and the editing, music choices, and overall quality exceeded all of our expectations. Our friends and family haven't stopped talking about how incredible the highlight reel is."

A sun-soaked winery wedding with all the good stuff: golden light, close people, easy laughter, and the kind of moments that only happen when everyone feels fully present. Tatiana and Matt’s day at Danza Del Sol felt warm, relaxed, and wildly genuine, captured with a mix of quiet candids, soft portraits, and everything in between.

Katrina and Ryan’s Carmel Beach session had that effortless coastal feeling you can’t fake. Wind in the hair, ocean in the background, no stiff posing, no overthinking. Just two people soaking up the moment together, with images that feel clean, romantic, and nostalgic in the best way.

A timeless San Clemente wedding with golden light, ocean air, and the easiest kind of joy. Erica and Max’s day felt romantic without ever feeling overly posed, filled with quiet in-between moments, soft movement, and the kind of laughter that makes everything feel effortless. Photo and film came together to preserve the day exactly as it felt: warm, emotional, and easy to relive.
