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.

Greetings from Whistler!  Before I hit the slopes, I wanted to share with you an awesome session stylized by Jen of Green Wedding Shoes.  Green Wedding Shoes is one of my all time favorite wedding blogs.  Jen has amazing taste and shares the most wonderful inspirations.  We got the ball rolling at the end of summer and shot this past fall, right at their one year anniversary!  What a great way to celebrate!  Jen is an amazing stylist!  We came up with a look and Jen stylized the entire thing.  I love the outfits and props she put together!  Many people don’t realize it, but a lot of thought and planning goes into a shoot!  If you haven’t, go to Green Wedding Shoes to read all about how she put this session together.   She is amazing!

Jen is now going into photo styling, and she is totally perfect for it.  I love the book Jen put together and the bouquet.

Jason started taking pictures of Jen and he was a natural!  We totally cracked up when he started to imitate me!
