A Southern California Wedding Photographer Capturing the Unconventional

Welcome to Mary Jo Tait Photography, where we celebrate love that transcends the ordinary and captures the genuine, adventurous spirit of your story. I'm MJ, the founder and photographer behind the lens, and I'm passionate about creating breathtaking, timeless images that capture the unique personalities and styles of each couples.

An Unconventional Approach to Wedding Photography

For me, a wedding isn't just about the dress, the flowers, or the venue. It's about capturing the emotions, the laughter, the tears, and the genuine connection between two people in love. I believe your wedding photos should reflect who you are as a couple-your personalities, your dreams, and your unique journey together.

I'm not just a photographer, I'm your guide and confidante on your wedding day. I'll help you plan, coordinate, and execute your vision, ensuring every moment is captured beautifully. I'll also be with you every step of the way, offering support, calming anxieties, and ensuring you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera.

My Philosophy: Adventure & Authenticity

I believe in embracing the unexpected, celebrating the unconventional, and capturing the authentic moments that make your story special. I encourage you to let go of stuffy traditions and embrace your passions, infusing your wedding with your unique flavor.
