About Irina

photography has captivated me since my dad showed me the wonders of the dark room at age of 10.

my story:

I’ve been happily married for almost 25 years to my soulmate, best friend, and a partner in crime.
I’m a boys’ mom, I have three awesome sons.
My parakeets Kiwi and Sparky are very social, meaning very loud!
Maui is my happy place, and if I wasn’t in love with San Diego, I would move there!
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 over 7 years.
I secretly cry at every wedding.

Words From My Clients

testimonials

“Irina did our wedding photos and they turned out wonderfully! She did an amazing job capturing all of the moments we wanted plus some more. Irina was incredibly keen on the shadows and the way my dress lay so each picture was just right. There was no time for our portraits of just the two of us between the ceremony and reception, so she even pulled us away for only 15 min and got some perfect shots during the reception. She was also incredibly flexible when my hair salon ran late and was so nice she added zero stress to any crazy situation that came up. Thank you Irina for adding to special day!”
