WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY INVESTMENT FOR SAN DIEGO COUNTY
Welcome — I'm so happy you’re here.
This page is all about one thing: telling your love story in a way that feels real, heartfelt, and unforgettable. Your wedding day is more than an event — it’s a reflection of your connection, your people, and the start of your forever. My job is to capture that honestly and beautifully, so you have images that feel like you — and become keepsakes for generations to come.
As a trusted San Diego Photographer, I've photograph weddings across San Diego County and the surrounding cities.
Coverage starts at $600 per hour (with a two-hour minimum for intimate weddings under 50 guests). Most couples invest around $3,500 — but I offer flexible collections, à la carte options, and an elopement package as well.
If photography is a priority but you’re working within a specific budget, I totally understand. Let’s chat and find something that fits. I’m here to make this easy, enjoyable, and unforgettable — just like your day.
Each package features the following details: - Cary Pennington as your personal photographer - Professionally edited digital images - An online platform for viewing and secure ordering - Images available in both color and black-and-white - Flexibility to shoot at multiple locations.

THE DETAILS THAT make the YOUR DAY special
Time
Most of our couples choose wedding photography coverage between 5–7 hours, depending on the flow of their day and what moments matter most to them. If you'd like to extend coverage, additional hours can always be added to your collection.
Digital Files
All wedding packages include your edited digital images, delivered in a beautiful online gallery — and a USB drive is available upon request.
Second Photographer
Some collections include a second photographer. For weddings with over 100 guests, we highly recommend adding one for at least 3–4 hours to ensure every moment is captured.
Print Release
All packages include a print release, allowing you to use your photos for personal use — like printing and sharing with loved ones. Copyright remains with the photographer, so the images can’t be sold or used for commercial purposes.
Travel
There’s no travel fee for weddings within San Diego County. For locations outside the county, a travel fee may apply — either a per-mile rate or a flat fee, depending on the distance. For destination weddings, airfare and accommodations may be required.
Albums
Our top packages include a wedding album, but if yours doesn’t, you can always add one later — many couples love ordering theirs around their first anniversary!
Photo Editing
A big part of our work happens after the shoot, carefully editing your photos to make sure they look absolutely stunning. While some studios offer minimal or no editing, we take pride in delivering images that truly shine and reflect the beauty of your day.
Additional Shoots
Additional shoots like engagement sessions, bridal portraits or rehearsal dinners can be included into any existing package. Just request that in your inquiry to us!
