Candid & Romantic Couples Photographer in Newport Beach


So often, the idea of being in front of a camera can feel intimidating or awkward. My goal is to completely transform that expectation into a relaxed, fun experience where you can feel comfortable enough to just be yourselves.


The Connection-First Couples Experience


Think of it less as a photo shoot and more as a fun, guided date where I happen to have my camera. Whether we’re exploring a favorite sun-drenched beach in Newport or a meaningful spot in Orange County that’s special to your story, our time together will be about creating beautiful memories.


Forget the rigid, traditional poses—our session is about movement, interaction, and capturing the way you naturally laugh together, hold each other, and connect.



Iconic Newport Beach Photoshoot Locations


Whether we're catching the sunset at Crystal Cove State Park, walking the Balboa Pier at sunrise, or finding a quiet stretch of sand at Little Corona del Mar Beach, we'll find the perfect backdrop for your story.

My goal is to make this simple and transparent. My couples packages are all-inclusive, meaning you get everything we shoot and you don't have to pay extra for "extra shots". You can find detailed pricing information on my main pricing page.

Testimonial

Mariano wasn't just a photographer; he felt like a friend. We were so nervous about being awkward, but he made the whole thing fun. The photos are pure magic. He didn't just capture our faces, he captured us.
