Caroline Tran Photographer – Los Angeles Wedding Photography bio picture

about the artist

I've always loved telling stories, but never enjoyed writing. When I
found photography, it was the perfect medium for me to express myself. With each shoot, I unveil the unique stories of
my subjects, and tell them with beautiful imagery. People often tell me
that they feel like they know my clients just from reading my blog.

They say photographs are the only tangible memories after a wedding,
which means that my perspective is how you will remember your big day.  With that in mind, I have to capture the details (big and
small) in the most beautiful light. I want you to laugh and cry (tears
of joy, of course) when you look at your photos. Whether it's your wedding day or your babies growing up, time goes
by so fast, so it's
my job to document your story... beautifully.

I am based in Los Angeles, but love to travel.

Destination weddings are most certainly welcomed!

In order to give each client my full creative energy, I only take a limited number of weddings a year. (aka I book up fast and don't offer discounts.)

Since Diane and Eric both live up north, I didn’t meet the two of them until they came down to LA for their engagement photos.  Right from the start, I could see how genuinely they admire, love, and care for each other.  And at their wedding, I was reminded again how perfect they are together.  They both have an amazing love for each other, life, the people in their lives, and God.

They met through a mutual friend while Diane was visiting New York and it was instant chemistry.  A few years ago, they moved to San Jose and here’s the beginning of a new chapter in their lives…

Their wonderful day took place at Hotel Valencia.  Diane’s beautiful dress is by Vera Wang.

Eric’s a car fanatic, so it was only appropriate to have carbon fiber cuff links & tie clip from Mont Blanc.

They are so sweet.  They met up beforehand to share a prayer together.

Anyone looking for an alternative to your traditional cocktail hour?  How about a Pinkberry hour!  To cut cost, Diane and Eric decided to cut the alcohol and do something more fun.  Everyone loved the Pinkberry and it was enjoyed by everyone of all ages!

While guest enjoyed their Pinkberry, we ran around Santana Row for some fun couple photos.

And a giant chess board!  There was actually a game going on at the time, but they were so nice to pause their chess game for us to take a few wedding photos.  King and Queen!

Even the back of the doll matched Diane’s Vera Wang dress!  So darn cute!  Congrats to Diane and Eric on a gorgeous wedding!  I look forward to seeing you write this next chapter!
