About Aaron Alvarez Photography

Aaron Alvarez Photography

Photographer

I'm Aaron Alvarez, a wedding photographer based at the Historic Santora Building in Santa Ana. I've shot professionally since 2008 and run my own studio since 2015. My background blends a photography degree with a computer science degree, and that combination shapes how I work: structured, detail driven, with nothing left to chance. A wedding only happens once. I treat it that way.

Two things. First, I work with you in English and Spanish, from the planning calls to directing your day, which matters when family, officiants, or guests need both. Second, I run weddings on systems, not memory. Your timeline, your vendors, your day-of details, all tracked in one place, backed by a two-week gallery delivery. You get a documented process, not guesswork.

I've shot professionally since 2008 and have run my own studio at the Historic Santora Building in Santa Ana since 2015. Weddings, quinceañeras, and headshots are what I do full time.
Yes. I work with couples in English and Spanish, from our first call through directing your wedding day. If your family, officiant, or guests need both, that's already part of how I operate.
Every package includes a full resolution digital gallery with unlimited downloads, a pre-wedding planning consult, and a custom day-of timeline. Higher tiers add a second photographer, an engagement session, and a printed album. I'll walk you through the right fit on a quick call.
As of 2026, packages start at $4,475, and most couples land around $6,500 to $7,000 once they've built out their full experience. The exact number depends on coverage hours, products, and whether video is included. The fastest way to get a real quote is a short call.
Full gallery delivery runs two to three weeks from your wedding day, depending on your package. Sneek-peeks are available in select packages.
Yes. I work with a dedicated videographer for full day video coverage, included in The Legacy package or available as an add-on.
Yes. The Old Orange County Courthouse is four blocks from my studio, and courthouse weddings are one of my specialties.
Yes. A lot of the couples I work with have family overseas or unable to travel, so livestreaming is part of what we offer.
Yes. I shoot throughout Orange County and greater Southern California, with travel outside that radius factored into your quote.
