After 10 years of marriage, the memories from our special day have slowly faded. With weddings going by in a flash, it's nearly impossible to commit it all to memory and with time, it will fade. The work we do, the memories we capture will last you a lifetime. We know that decades from now you will be flipping through your photo album or watching your wedding video; overflowing with love and joy. Knowing this is what motivates us!

“Gleimlight did such a great job with our engagement photos, wedding photos and our wedding video. Everytime they sent photos I was always so extremely happy with their final products. They were sooo fast getting the images back to us too. They even would send me a sneak peek photo, which was so great to get. They really care and are so easy to work with. We didnt know the first thing about how to pose for photos and they told us exactly what we needed to do to make for great photos. I highly recommend them!”

Lulan’s creativity has led to his path beyond most conventional definitions. He has won 25+ wedding photography awards, named the Best Wedding Photographer in Los Angeles; while acquired advance degree in immunology and medicine from UCLA.

“We found Lulan Studios about nine months before our wedding day. We were immediately drawn in by their professionalism and their reputation. Lulan is an inclusive photographer who was very receptive to our wedding vision. He and his team were incredibly kind, supportive, and helpful all throughout the process. We elected to go with Lulan Wang himself for our photographer who worked with an associate. After our initial consultation we were turned over to Shannon who was our go to contact for day to day clarifications and vendor contact until Lulan took over just before the wedding. Shannon was immensely resourceful and responsive. She communicated with our coordinator very efficiently and was always on top of our booking. We are very grateful to her as well for making the process so easy and for continuing that communication after the fact. On the day, Lulan and his associate were spectacular. It was clear his associate had more than enough talent for the job just like Lulan, but they divided and concurred by using two different types of cameras for different types of shots. We regret not doing an engagement session with them, but we will likely return for an Anniversary session in the future. We didn’t even need one though, because he is skilled enough that he understood us as a couple immediately. They made us feel comfortable and confident. They hyped us up and moved through the shot list masterfully. Nothing was missed and we captured far more than we expected. Please look through our attached photos as they speak for themselves. One of the most exciting moments was when Lulan handed us a little blue book filled with about fifteen physically printed preview photos DURING THE RECEPTION. A lovely surprise that absolutely shocked me. Turnover was 4-6 weeks and we got ours just before the six week mark right on schedule. We were floored. They are jaw-dropping. We ultimately got 950 photos permanently digitally available for high resolution download and access to a shop with impressive options for prints and albums of a wide array of types and sizes. I’m thrilled to show them to you here and implore you to consider booking Lulan Studios. We trusted in their ability from the beginning and we were not disappointed. They are among if not the absolute best in the business.”

Serves Carlsbad, CA

I’ve been happily married for almost 27 years. I have three awesome sons. My parakeets Kiwi and Sparky are very social, meaning very loud! Champagne (maybe that’s why I love weddings) and sushi lover here! Photography has been my passion ever since my dad gave me my first film camera and introduced me to the dark room at age of 10. I lived in Japan for 12 years, and even performed on a stage there. I’m always up for a great road trip! I love tuna fishing. I love hats and want to wear them everyday (over 20 hats in my collection). I’ve been shooting beautiful weddings for almost 10 years. I secretly cry at every wedding.

“I've never been so excited to review somebody in my entire life!!! We were so lucky to have Irina as our photographer. I cannot say enough how important it is that your photographer on your wedding day is just as wonderful as a person as she is a professional at what she does. A good photographer makes you feel comfortable and effortless behind the camera. Posing parents, siblings, wedding parties, flower girls, ring bearers, and the bride and groom coming together perfectly in a crazy short amount of time? You feel like it’s IMPOSSIBLE. It’s not! I’ve heard that weddings are always not on time. The truth is it’s more worth. The rings may be forgotten, the very important guest is being extremely late, and a lot of other reasons. Irina was super patient, she captured each and every photo I wanted without me even having to make sure that she did it. Her creativity, eye for perfection, and professionalism are unbelievable. The wedding day does by so fast, and it's important to have all the moments captured. My now husband and I could not have chosen a better photographer. Everyone at the wedding was talking about how great our photographer was. Irina introduced herself to every guest and family member at the wedding and made sure she got every guests’ picture which we are so grateful! We had so many out of state guests and wanted to remember every moment with them on our best day. If you are looking for pricing that makes sense, photographer who cares about the quality, your happiness on your wedding day, and feeling confident throughout that entire day and every time you look at pictures afterwards, then look no further!”

I help my couples extensively with timelines to ensure we have the perfect photography timeline to capture all of your important photos.

“Amira is absolutely amazing and not only talented but truly such a beautiful person inside and out. Her calming and engaging presence is so comforting and has a perfect blend of guiding a client organically, yet can assist with a pose to feel most feminine/masculine and enhancing the best of one's features. Her ability to capture beautiful moments, heartfelt feelings and joy between her couples, families and everything in between is goosebump worthy. She stops time through her camera and produces images that reflect a story; although the images are still, they are not motionless. She has the ability to capture that moment in its raw form and somehow layers an illusionary movement to the mind. Her photos, and editing combined produces an album of images that encompass a story. Simply put, Amira is magic *heart eyes*”

When I am not behind a camera, I love to spend my time at the beach, camping with friends or reading a good book. Preferably, all of those things together!

“I cannot say enough about Ashley! I talk her up to every single person I come across looking for photos. She took our engagement photos and our maternity photos, and not only were they so beautiful, but she made us feel like we are just hanging out (while she’s behind the camera)! On top of all of that, we were slated to have her photograph our wedding but due to COVID, it had to be moved. She made me feel so calm and gave me all the back up plans she could think of (all while planning her own wedding during COVID). In the end she recommended someone else who was also amazing for our new date, and then edited those photos for us. I can’t imagine working with anyone else in the future, and can’t wait for her to capture our growing family over the years. 5 stars to this very sweet, loving lady!”

She was great at directing us for group photos, ensuring everyone was in the right spot without feeling rushed. She is funny and a total photography pro, and now we want her to take all of our images. By the end of the wedding, we had friends asking for her information and complimenting her left and right.

He was very thoughtful and thorough in using all aspects of our venue to provide amazing photos capturing the whole day. He worked very efficiently with us leading up to the ceremony to get us photos while still keeping us hidden away from our arriving guests, and then, during the ceremony and reception, he was amazingly unobtrusive but still able to capture all the great moments of our night! Khoa sent us a few preliminary photos which were all so perfect for personalizing our thank you cards. Once we got the full complement of photos from him we were blown away by the quality, editing, and energy he was able to capture from our wedding day. He is immensely generous with the number of photos he provides, and we have to stress that he somehow manages to deliver on both quantity AND quality.

“My wife and I hired Wellington for both an engagement shoot as well as for our wedding day and we are absolutely in love with the results. He has an exceptional eye behind the camera and his photography style is artistic but also captures the truly special moments. We were blown away by the portfolio he delivered to us after the wedding. He seemed to be everywhere at once. He captured so many amazing moments from our big day. The knowledge and experience that he brings to the table is invaluable as well. I know he is new as a small business but he seems to know a lot about photography and he is passionate about it as a hobby. We appreciated how he was able to work within our budget but also was able to provide realistic timelines and photo locations. Cannot say enough good things about the photos that Wellington delivered, and it was a delight working with him. I would not hesitate for a second to hire him for another event.”

To me, capturing the moments of your wedding day is not only about making photos. It is about seeing your love in every single detail. The way you look, smile, touch and hold each other’s hands are those tiny things that help me portray the story of your big love without any words being said.

“I really enjoyed Natalia so much! So creative with the film shots. The eventual overall photos were beautiful. I’m not sure how she ran around and captured it all in such a way! She was very punctual and very cooperative about the multiple locations over the course of the day. Wonderful photos I’ll adore forever. Thanks so much Natalia!”
