Freelance Wedding Photographer

Location: Southern California – Los Angeles, Orange, & San Diego Counties
Compensation: $200/hour | $300 per wedding (1.5 hrs) | $200 per elopement (1 hr)
Payment is made in full prior to the event.

About the Role:

Intimate Beach Wedding creates sacred, minimalist beach ceremonies. We’re looking for freelance photographers who are technically skilled and emotionally attuned—those who can capture beauty in movement and stillness, guide couples gently, and work with intention.

You’ll provide RAW images only (no editing required) within 48 hours of the event. Each session is one hour for elopements, and 1.5 hours for weddings with decor and setup.

What You'll Capture:

  • Ceremony pull-backs and décor

  • Scene-setting details (waves, seagulls, florals, textures)

  • Emotional moments: vows, handoff, rings, kiss, recessional

  • Light direction for family formals

  • Portraits that feel guided but real—natural connection over stiff posing

Who You Are:

  • Calm, reliable, and punctual

  • Professional in communication and presentation

  • Experienced with diverse couples, backgrounds, and expressions

  • Able to gently direct without over-controlling

  • Covered by liability insurance and confident shooting solo

Logistics & Pay:

  • $200/hour | $300 per wedding (1.5 hrs) | $200 per elopement (1 hr)

  • Payment is made in full prior to the event

  • RAW images must be delivered within 48 hours via a cloud link

  • Parking fees reimbursed with receipt

  • Must be local to Los Angeles, Orange, or San Diego Counties

We’re not looking for flashy. We’re looking for presence.
