Our inspiration for picking up the camera has and always will be our couples. Katrina and I have been fortunate enough to not only have these people accept us to document the most important day of their lives, but also to accept us to be their friends and family. Your stories are our life.

Brandon started his photography career in college when he joined the school newspaper. A passion for capturing real moments and telling the story led him to become the photography editor and win several awards for his coverage within only a year. Shortly afterwards he began shooting weddings with Katrina using this same style. The rest is history.

Aimee + Dantonio

When Aimee and Dantonio told us that they wanted their engagement photos at Disneyland we couldn’t have been more excited. It was at the “happiest place on earth” where Katrina and I spent most of our first year dating, so it was great coming back to see it through a photographer’s eyes. Great conversation and their warm personalities made the day flow by so effortlessly. On top of that they were patient with our crazy ideas and even came up with few fun ones themselves. If this is just a little piece of the two then we can’t wait for what’s in store during their wedding day next year.

Megan + Scott

Years ago, Megan’s parents used to go on trips and bring her back a little present. One of the gifts was a wedding gown. Many years later she found the man of her dreams and we couldn’t have been any happier to document it.

When the bridal party made their way to the ceremony via trolley we knew it we were in for an amazing wedding. If you thought it couldn’t get better we were also treated to a one of a kind Britney Spears dance by Megan at the end of the night.

Capture POD

After months of planning, Brandon Wong Photography is excited to announce a brand new addition to our family. It’s called the Capture POD.

We steered away from the traditional wedding photo booth with its sharp edges and dark exterior. In its place, we created a one of a kind photo booth, with rounded edges, LED illuminated walls, and an aluminum frame. The design is simple yet sensational and a league above the traditional boxy photo booth rental.

After years of attending weddings we are so happy to have a photo booth fitting for the modern bride. It’s also great for Bar/Bat Mitzvah’s, Sweet 16s, corporate events, and more. Please shoot us an e-mail for pricing information and availability, we would love to have you experience the POD!

Vivian and Calvin hold a special place in our hearts as the first of our couples to be expecting a baby. When they called us up asking to take photos we couldn’t help but jump in joy. Emma should be here any second now and we absolutely cannot wait to meet her.

Kristel + Trevor

We first met Kristel and Trevor two years ago and since then, we’ve kept a close friendship amongst the four of us. I can still remember the day Trevor was elaborating on his plans to propose to Kristel at their childhood elementary school after six years of dating. We all couldn’t be more excited. Just last month the two tied the knot and it was nothing short of emotional. We could instantly tell how close the two families have grown the past six years and how much their relationship has matured with them.

They were married at the historical Heritage Museum Kellogg House, a truly wonderful place to shoot. We instantly fell in love with the victorian property with it’s old classrooms (which seems fitting since Kristel’s plans to becoming a teacher), a large ship mast that had been salvaged and incorporated into the house’s staircase, as well as historic blacksmith shop. Kristel and Trevor both love the Victorian era, and the Kellogg House was the perfect fit for their intimate wedding.
