About

Khoa Photography is a passionate wedding photographer based in San Diego, California. Khoa focuses on a natural and photojournalistic approach to tell your wedding story.

If photography is on top of your list, then you'd be glad to have him as a part of your special day. As couples usually said, choosing him as their wedding photographer was easily one of the best decisions they made during their planning process.

Note from the owner

Hi, my name is Khoa /kwa/ and I'm excited to meet you!

I truly value connections, this is why I love wedding photography because it's a day of celebrating relationships and connections between humans and generations. To witness and capture those moments bring me joy and fuel my creativity.

Photography is a great way to give back beautiful memories to my couples. 
I want to make photographs that can stand the test of time and help couples to relive their day, and remind them of why they love each other so much!

Let's hang out, tell me your story and make magic together!

Fantastic!!!

Khoa exceeded our expectations. I had a vision with some Pinterest inspirations, and he completely exceeded my vision! From the very start, he was very professional and reliable. On the day of we were both nervous because we both don’t like getting our pictures taken and he gave us so many good pointers and tips that made our pictures look incredible. We genuinely enjoyed getting our pictures taken. I am so thankful that we booked him and cannot recommend him enough! Pictures were taken on digital and film!

Beautiful photos, great service

Khoa took both our engagement and wedding photos, and wow did he exceed our expectations. He was very accommodating to our requests and willing to travel (Sequoia National Park and Sedona, AZ) to help create our vision. He was great to work with - an excellent communicator, professional during the shoot, and had the photos ready for us well before we were expecting! By all accounts, we were extremely satisfied with Khoa’s services and would certainly hire him again to capture our future memories.

Simply Incredible!

I simply couldn't recommend Khoa more! My fiancé planned a surprise engagement with Khoa while we were traveling throughout California. My favorite part of it all (aside from the engagement) was how much Khoa was able to support and assist in the planning process with my fiancé. Khoa was unobtrusive and even during/after the engagement he gave us space to just "be" and soak it all in. When it was ready for the portrait part of the engagement (post saying "yes"), Khoa was helpful in giving direction but still letting us be natural and ride the highs of love. The photos he captured were unbelievable. You can feel the love, excitement, and all of the emotion through the screen. I feel so lucky that my engagement was captured in real time, nonetheless by Khoa himself. 10000/10 would recommend!

Beautiful photography for San Diego Civil Ceremony

We found Khoa after searching through dozens of photographers in SD County. We planned to have an elopement at the County Clerk's office and wanted someone to be able to capture the intimate moments of the day very artfully since we wouldn't have a big wedding or any guests. Khoa had excellent communication, was very professional, and made our day even more special by agreeing to be our witness. In a way, he brought me a lot of comfort since we didn't have any friends or family there. My now husband and I rarely take photos even for socials or anything personal and are super awkward in front of the camera, but Khoa provided just enough guidance and direction that it felt very natural posing for the camera without it feeling like an entire production or feeling too stiff. I really appreciated that he asked us what we prefer the focus environment should be-- whether its architecture or nature, to ensure that he captures the vibe we were looking for. He delivered the final products very quickly and his post edits were beautiful-- the colors, light, and balance of us and the backdrops were absolutely stunning. I highly recommend his service to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

Exceptional and Creative

We hired Khoa for our wedding pictures and could not be more pleased! We reached out for a custom quote given the amount of hours requested. He quickly responded and set up a Zoom meeting to understand more about our expectations of the day and a general timeline. We were worried about rain, which luckily didn't happen, and Khoa was able to offer his expertise advice in the event it did. The day of the wedding, he was very friendly, had a true creative eye for detail, and was very professional. He delivered far more photos than we expected and within 2 short weeks. We were so excited to share with everyone and everyone was very impressed with the photos. We cannot recommend him enough!

Amazing photographer

Khoa captured the little moments of our backyard wedding perfectly. He was flexible and nonintrusive throughout the entire event. We had a specific vision in mind for our couples session, and he totally understood what we wanted and delivered beyond our expectations. A great experience overall. Fair and transparent pricing. Quick turnaround time. Professional and friendly communication. Breathtaking photos.

Highly Recommend!

Khoa was our wedding photographer from getting ready until the end of the night and we had an amazing experience with him the entire time! He is incredibly sweet and easy to work with, and made us feel very comfortable from the get-go.

He was very thoughtful and thorough in using all aspects of our venue to provide amazing photos capturing the whole day. He worked very efficiently with us leading up to the ceremony to get us photos while still keeping us hidden away from our arriving guests, and then, during the ceremony and reception, he was amazingly unobtrusive but still able to capture all the great moments of our night!

Khoa sent us a few preliminary photos which were all so perfect for personalizing our thank you cards. Once we got the full complement of photos from him we were blown away by the quality, editing, and energy he was able to capture from our wedding day. He is immensely generous with the number of photos he provides, and we have to stress that he somehow manages to deliver on both quantity AND quality. He is also very talented in composition and there were more than several photos that we never noticed him getting - everything perfectly captured the energy and feeling of the day and felt like we were reliving it again.

Overall he feels like the complete package and we recommend him without hesitation!!!

The best photographer!

We worked with Khoa for our wedding ceremony and reception and it was everything we wished for and more! As photographers ourselves, it takes a lot of trust to feel comfortable with another person doing the job. Khoa not only met our expectations but exceeded them and we recommend him highly to everyone. Not only did he make us feel so at ease, but he was so kind, patient, and professional. Khoa helped make our wedding day so effortless and we thank him greatly for that. From the minute he arrived, myself, my husband, and all of our loved ones felt so comfortable with Khoa. Thank you, Khoa, for everything - your professionalism, patience, great direction, photography knowledge, kindness, we could go on and on! We look forward to working with Khoa in the future. Don’t hesitate to find any other photographer – Khoa is THE ONE!

Dark Romantic 1920s vibe

Khoa is absolutely amazing! He’s very response and understood the idea and vision that we were going for. He’s very easy going, communicative, helped us to relax and pose (as we’ve never had professional photos taken before), and WOW the photos came out amazing. We wanted dark romantic 1920s vibe and he gave us JUST that. Love it! Thank you so much Khoa!
