A Los Angeles wedding photography package from Original Weddings typically includes full-day coverage, a professional wedding photographer, and a curated gallery of edited wedding photos.

With a team that understands both editorial and candid wedding photography styles, you’ll enjoy timeless images that tell your story beautifully.

Choosing the right Los Angeles wedding photographer starts by reviewing portfolios, identifying the wedding photography style that speaks to you (e.g., timeless, natural light, editorial), and meeting the team to gauge your comfort level. At Original Weddings, our wedding photographers are known for making couples feel at ease while delivering wedding portraits and imagery that are both artistic and heartfelt. Whether you prefer posed elegance or unposed authenticity, your wedding photo shoot should feel like a reflection of you. Look for someone who understands lighting, pacing, and the emotional flow of the day—and who offers wedding photography packages that fit your coverage needs and timeline.

The best wedding photography locations in Los Angeles include El Matador Beach, Griffith Observatory, Pasadena City Hall, and the rooftops of Downtown LA. These spots offer dynamic backdrops for your wedding photo shoot, whether you’re seeking golden hour portraits or urban elegance. Our wedding photographers also love shooting in Malibu gardens, West Hollywood venues, and scenic overlooks in the Hollywood Hills. Original Weddings provides wedding photography inspiration and guidance on choosing locations that match your style and dress code. Whether you want editorial wedding pictures or candid couple photography, LA has a setting to elevate your visual story.

Wedding photography styles range from photojournalistic to editorial, fine art, candid, and classic portraiture. Photojournalistic wedding photography captures real moments unobtrusively, while fine art photography emphasizes composition, lighting, and aesthetic. Editorial wedding portraits mimic magazine-style poses and dramatic lighting. At Original Weddings, we blend these styles to create a personalized gallery that reflects your personality and venue. During your planning call, we’ll go over your preferences, suggest wedding photography poses that feel natural, and ensure your imagery feels like you. Whether you’re drawn to soft romantic tones or bold, vibrant colors, we’ll match you with a Los Angeles wedding photographer who fits your vision.

Yes, Griffith Observatory is one of the most iconic spots in LA for engagement photos because you get skyline views, clean architecture, and that classic “city glow” backdrop. The best time to go depends on the vibe you want. Sunrise is usually the calmest option with softer light and fewer crowds. Golden hour into sunset is also beautiful, especially on weekdays, but it can be busier. We’ll help you plan timing and a simple route so it stays relaxed and natural.

Yes, Urban Light is a popular spot for couples photos, and it photographs beautifully when the lamps are glowing. The best window is late afternoon into sunset, then “blue hour” right after sunset when the lights feel extra cinematic. We’ll plan timing so you get variety (natural light plus the lights turned on) and so we can work around peak crowd times.

For skyline photos, we recommend locations that give you a clean city backdrop without feeling chaotic. Favorites include Griffith Park viewpoints, Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook, Vista Hermosa Natural Park for DTLA framing, and select Mulholland Drive overlooks for sunset or city lights. We’ll suggest the best option based on your preferred look, modern, romantic, dramatic, or classic LA.

If you love timeless architecture and “Old Hollywood” energy, Pasadena City Hall is a top choice for a classic, elegant look. For a vintage LA feel, Union Station is also beautiful with historic details and cinematic angles. Depending on the style you want, we can also suggest iconic architectural backdrops in DTLA or estate-style locations that feel elevated and timeless. We’ll help you choose based on your timeline, the day of the week, and how much privacy you want.

Yes, we offer drone footage for Los Angeles wedding films. Drone rules depend on the exact location and airspace, and many public areas or venues may restrict drone use. We always confirm what’s permitted ahead of time and only fly legally and responsibly. If drone footage isn’t allowed at your location, we still capture cinematic “scene-setting” shots with ground-based filming so your wedding film keeps that big LA feel.
