Hey guys, I'm Shant Atarian, a wedding photographer based in Simi Valley, California. My love for photography started at a young age. Even as a child, I always knew that I was different. I always preferred to explore the world alone or with those closest to me. I've always been intrigued by the silence of nature, simplicity, and the mysterious darkness of nighttime. I'm committed to working closely with you to create a collection of pictures that reflects your genuine bond.

As for my style, I'm really focused on the cinematic and artistic look. I try to steer away from staged and forced shots. I want you to be comfortable through the process and do only what feels natural to you. Moreover, I try to capture your real moments. I will guide you through the entire experience so you do not have to stand there wondering what is next. The goal is to be yourselves--to be who you really are.

There's always beauty in darkness and happiness in simplicity.

Let's be friends and create together.
