Caroline Tran Photographer – Los Angeles Wedding Photography bio picture

about the artist

I love having fun, learning new things, making people smile, and telling stories. I love seeing life through fun angles. I enjoy inspiring others as well as being inspired by others. I have the most supportive husband, best friend, and partner. We enjoy hiking, traveling, our furry kids, snowboarding, weddings, and of course, photography.

I love weddings.  Weddings are filled with thoughtful details and emotions, and I love capturing those precious memories. I love telling vivid wedding stories. I put my heart into every photo, so you will see personality, new perspectives, a great story, and life in my photos.

I work unobtrusively, using my mix of photojournalism, candid, and fine-art portraiture style.  I document those important moments with the most interesting, truthful and beautiful perspective.  I understand how much time and thought is put into each wedding - that’s why it is so important to me that you to experience your big day all over again every time you see your pictures.

The opportunity to capture your memories and tell the story of such a special day is truly an honor to me. I enjoy developing relationships with each couple, which allows me to make each set truly unique & memorable.

This blog is where I will update my most recent photos along with random bits from my life. It is a casual place to get to know each other. If there are specific photos you want to see more of, you can click on the categories at the top to see photos of that category. I hope you find what you’re looking for here. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments!  I’d love to hear from you!


I am based in Los Angeles, but travel and destination weddings are welcome!
I book weddings up to 15 months in advance. 

My wedding
calendar is booked through April 2011.

Pasadena Engagement Photography | Kristin + Eric

Kristin and Eric are just so adorable together.  I could see what a perfect pair they are the moment we met.  It’s evident in the way they laugh together and the way they just get each other.  Kristin and I already had a great connection through email, and when we finally met, we clicked immediately and I knew that we were a perfect match.

We started at the Pasadena Library and I love how everything just flowed so naturally.  Kristin & Eric’s love just radiates.  You can help but to smile around them.

We popped in the library for a few shots before they closed.  They are just so loving, sweet, and playful together.

Kristin walks by these poppies everyday – I’m sure she’s thinking about her wedding plans and all the excitement of their engagement period every time she walks by.   I wanted to capture these poppies for her because I think they’ll bring back memories of this once-in-a-lifetime period.

Right:  Crazy plant that I just had to capture them though.  I LOVE her facial expression!

I cannot wait for their wedding this May!  I can’t wait to see all the personal touches!

Fun fact:  I lost my phone after this shoot.  In the grass you see in the above image.  I was dropped off, so I didn’t have a car and no cell phone.  After borrowing many stranger’s phones and waiting around for nearly 2 hrs, Jonathan found me.  We back tracked all my steps and found my iphone laying face up on the grass!  I met a lot of cool strangers though, including a newly engaged couple, but that adventure would be a whole seperate entry.  :)
