Love, The Clove & Kin Family

We're so excited that you're interested in choosing our team to document your wedding! We believe in real emotions and savoring moments, and in creating the kinds of images that in 30 years will still remind you of the joy you felt in the moment that photo was taken. Images that are itching to be printed, placed in beautiful albums and hung on walls for years to come. 

Our studio began capturing weddings in 2012 and has shared in countless heartfelt wedding journeys since. Our small, tight-knit family of lead photographers and filmmakers all have one thing in common - they deeply value relationships and savoring the good things in life. Whenever they pick up their cameras, their goal is for you to create beautiful memories that live just as vividly in your hearts as it does in your images and films. We are truly honored to be considered for your most important day. 

welcome

I feel like they are now part of our family. They truly provided me some of the best moments and memories from our wedding."

"We knew we had found the right photographer team for us.

kind words

He knew how to make sure my wife and I enjoyed the moments we had alone. We will always cherish the photos they took for us."

"We had great chemistry with our photographer.

kind words

After photographing hundreds of weddings over the past ten years, we’ve found that we’re not the perfect fit for every couple. That’s why this process begins with a conversation. We want to hear everything—how you met, funny first date stories, and how the proposal went down.

We’ll get to know one another, talk about the details of your day, answer any questions you might have about working with us and figure out if we’re the best fit for each other.

LET's CONNECT

We're here as a resource beyond photography—whether you're looking for engagement session outfit recommendations, timeline advice, or vendor referrals.

Even if you're working with a wedding planner or you're planning a simple wedding, there are likely still a lot of moving pieces left leading up to your big day. We've photographed more than 200 weddings and we're happy to share everything we've learned along the way! 

Wedding CONSULTANTS

We’re big fans of engagement sessions for a few reasons. Not only do they allow you to get comfortable in front of the camera and spend one on one time with your photographer, they also give you the opportunity to showcase your personalities in a more casual setting that is significant to the two of you. 

If you include an engagement session in your collection with us, the ideal time to photograph an engagement sessions is 6-9 months before your wedding date, but we will always work around your unique wedding schedule. 

Engagement Session

One of our mottos at Clove & Kin is "Spontaneity is the reward of preparation." We check-in about 4 months before the wedding to start chatting about timeline specifics, special details, family formal shot lists, special traditions and anything else we should know about your big day. 

Based on the details you give us, we'll put together the perfect schedule of photography and list of family portraits for your day, and we'll work closely with your wedding planning team to make it perfect. Your only job on the wedding day will be to celebrate!

Wedding Day PLANNING

It's finally here! The day the two of you say "I Do" and dance the night away surrounded by your family and friends. 

Just know we're excited to celebrate and capture your wedding day. It's going to be awesome.

The Big Day

Your gorgeous images will be brought back to our studio where they'll be lovingly curated and edited.

You can expect your photos to be delivered via an online gallery a month after your wedding. At that time, we'll begin creating your initial album designs and begin prepping for your Design Session. 

Photo Delivery

If you purchase an album, we'll sit down with you 4-6 weeks after the wedding to view your album designs, curate them to perfection, and select your final album options. This is when we get to craft your first family heirloom - an album that will be passed down for generations to come. 

At this time, we'll also be selecting any wall art you'd like to place around your home. These are the moments we'll preserve for years to come, and that you'll get to experience on a daily basis - from the moment you wake until you lay down to rest, so be thinking about where you'd like to see your beautiful memories displayed.

VIEW OUR ALBUMS

As we all know, technology changes rapidly. We don't know how you're going to experience your digital images in 30 years, but we do know that a wedding album will last for generations. Which is why we offer high quality Wedding Albums. These professionally designed albums come in a variety of linen & leather colors. They’re modern, lay perfectly flat and are built to last.

Learn more about all of our Heirloom Albums and product offerings below. 

HEIRLOOM WEDDING ALBUMS

Engagement sessions are our most popular add-on! Timelines can be pretty tight on weddings days and 30 minutes may be all we have for your couple portraits - which is why we’ve found that wedding day portraits turn out so much better when couples do engagement sessions ahead of time.

Sessions also allow you to showcase your personalities in a more casual setting that is significant to the two of you (and even include pets!) Engagement session are also great for save-the-dates, wedding websites, and guestbook albums, and the ideal time for the session is 6-9 months before the wedding day.

Engagement Sessions

Fantastic! To reserve your wedding date, we’ll need a completed contract and a $1500 non-refundable retainer. All of our bookings happening electronically, so contact us via our inquiry form here or email us at studio@cloveandkin.com and we'll set up a consultation to select your photographer, create a proposal and book your date.

We love your work and we’re ready to book! What’s the next step?

We deliver roughly 100 final images for every hour of coverage. The exact amount varies from wedding to wedding, depending on the number of guests and the events that take place. Your online gallery will come loaded with fully edited images that you can download and share anywhere you'd like.

How many photos will we receive and will we be able to download them?

Of course! This day is incredibly personal and we desire for you to build a relationship with your photographer. This is why we include an engagement session in every collection, so you can spend one on one time together and get to know each other. 

Can I meet my photographer before the wedding?

We work with a lot of couples that don't live locally, so if traveling here for your engagement session doesn't work out, we can transfer it to rehearsal dinner coverage instead. That way you'll still get to spend time with your photographer before the big day!

I don't live in San Diego and am not sure I can do an engagement session with your team. What can we do instead?
