San Diego Wedding Photographer Serving Temecula & All of Southern California

For couples who want fun direction that create scenes you look alive in, and one photographer handling the story from first email to final gallery.

I'm Zeus.

I am a wedding photographer in San Diego capturing love stories the way they actually happen — unposed, cinematic, real. As an engagement photographer in San Diego, he documents the moments before the moment: quiet mornings at the coast, hands intertwined, the nerves before the big question. As a proposal photographer in La Jolla, he's hidden in plain sight for some of the most important seconds of a couple's life, so nothing gets missed.

From an intimate San Diego courthouse wedding to a Maritime Museum wedding aboard tall ships and harbor views, to a Temecula winery wedding photographer's dream — vineyard rows at golden hour — every kind of "I do" gets the same editorial eye and unscripted style.

Wedding photography packages start at $1,800, with options built around what your day actually needs — not a one-size-fits-all package.

WHAT I SHOOT

I photograph weddings, engagements, and surprise proposals throughout San Diego and beyond. As a solo photographer, I work directly with every couple from the first email to the final gallery delivery. No associates. No surprises. Just one person who cares about your day as much as you do.

I've had the honor of shooting four weddings at the Maritime Museum of San Diego, capturing couples on the Star of India, the Berkeley, and the San Salvador. I've photographed surprise proposals at Sunset Cliffs and engagement sessions from Mission Beach to the desert landscapes of Trona Pinnacles. Whether you're planning a courthouse wedding in downtown San Diego, a winery celebration in Temecula, or an elopement with just the two of you, I build a timeline that protects the moments that matter and makes the most of beautiful light.

More Than Weddings

Beyond weddings, I'm always open to portraits, headshots, and family sessions — as well as event photography for corporate gatherings, nonprofit functions, and private celebrations. With 14 years of experience running security and large-scale events before becoming a full-time photographer, I know how to move through a crowd, anticipate moments, and deliver images that tell the full story.

What It’s Like to Work With Me

You deserve photos that feel as good as the day itself. As a Southern California Wedding Photographer, I focus on honest moments, calm direction, and a process that helps you stay present, without worrying about the camera. I’m there to document the emotion, energy, and in-between moments that make the day yours, and when it’s time for portraits, I’ll guide you in a way that feels natural and effortless.

Most couples tell me they feel awkward in front of the camera. That’s completely normal. You do not need to know what to do. That’s my job. I’ll give you clear direction, keep things moving, and make sure the experience feels smooth from start to finish.

Planning With Purpose

We’ll build a timeline that gives your day room to breathe, protects the moments that matter, and makes the most of beautiful light.

Direction That Feels Natural

I step in when needed and step back when the moment should speak for itself, so nothing feels forced or overdone.

Images That Feel Like Your Day

You’ll walk away with photographs that feel personal, emotional, and timeless — not just beautiful, but honest.
