Ian Chin Photography

Ian Chin Photography is a San Francisco-based wedding and proposal photographer focused on candid, moment-driven images rather than posed or contrived shots. Ian is known for a candid-first approach to wedding documentation, with creative portraits as a secondary offering, and also operates as a proposal photographer and runs a Bay Area Glambot photo booth. Ian has photographed 400 or more weddings as a Bay Area wedding photographer, started with a Pentax Honeywell film camera, and grew up as a San Francisco native now based in Dublin, CA. Primarily serves the Bay Area, including San Francisco, Marin County, Livermore, and the surrounding Northern California region, with elopement work extending to Yosemite National Park. Clients highlight Ian's strong candid photography, responsiveness, pre-event consultations with location and posing tips, preparation on the day of the shoot, and calm presence that reduces nerves.
