About Azaria Chavira Photography

Azaria Chavira

Photographer

Hi! I’m Azaria. I am a Northern California-based Travel Wedding and Elopement photographer. How did I get here? I grew up in small-town Nebraska with a love for adventure and photography. I got to explore those passions when I got married, my husband joined the military, and we got stationed overseas. I used that opportunity to travel and see many countries. When we returned stateside, I pursued my passion for photography by getting my degree at Brooks Institute of Photography.

I feel like photography is a unifying language that transcends boundaries. I want my images to reflect real life, so my style deliberately switches between editorial, advertising, and journalism. I want my photographs of you to feel timeless and look amazing when you show your family and friends or print them out to hang on the wall.

    Absolute Best Decision we Made

    We hired Azaria to shoot our engagement photos and our wedding day. We cannot recommend Azaria highly enough. From the very first conversation, she made us feel like we were her only client. She walked us through every step of the planning process with patience and expertise, helping us build a realistic timeline and offering practical advice that took so much stress off our shoulders. She genuinely cared about making our experience great, not just showing up to take pictures. On the day of our engagement photos, we were honestly nervous about feeling awkward in front of the camera. But Azaria has an incredible gift for putting people at ease. She gave us space to be ourselves and soak in every moment without ever feeling rushed or posed. On our wedding day, Azaria managed to capture every meaningful moment; especially the tender moments with our friends and family. It felt like we had a friend documenting our day rather than a photographer directing us. When we received our gallery, we were completely blown away. The photos are stunning—they don't just document what happened; they capture the emotion of the day. Every time we look through them, we are transported right back to those moments. The lighting, the composition, the candid shots—everything exceeded our expectations. She truly gave us a gift we will treasure forever. One moment we will always hold close is when Azaria pulled us aside during the golden hour for a few quiet minutes alone. We didn't even think about photos in that moment—we were just enjoying each other—but the images she captured during that brief window are some of our favorites. It was such a thoughtful touch that showed how much she cares about creating meaningful memories, not just checking boxes. We were also thrilled with our wedding album. The layout was beautifully designed and told the story of our day from start to finish. You can tell Azaria put real care into perfecting every detail. To any couple searching for a wedding or elopement photographer: look no further. Azaria is the full package—a talented artist, a calming presence, and a genuinely kind person who goes above and beyond for their clients. She made our day unforgettable, and we will be grateful to her forever.

    Amazing experience

    Azaria truly made our wedding experience less stressful. She brought humor, energy, and care while taking first look photos and photos during the reception. She is knowledgeable with best poses and angles for height differences in bride and groom and got children ranging from 18 months to 5 years old to focus and smile for pictures! she is knowledgeable and comes with passion. We can't thank her enough for supporting us during our day! We will be coming back for future photography needs. Her husband David, was also extremely knowledgeable and supportive as our officiant and helped run our ceremony smoothly. We love you guys! They met with us over video or phone multiple time throughout the process to make sure we were comfortable and happy with what was going to happen on our wedding day. She really helped alleviate stress and many questions we had.

    Amazing Wedding & Engagement Shoot

    Azaria took our engagement photos and our wedding photos and was absolutely incredible! She was so sweet and easy to work with and kept us laughing! We loved having her in Yosemite and her photos turned out incredible! She just sent over a few sneak peaks from our wedding album and I can’t wait to see the rest! Not only did the photos turn out great, but she also helped me all day long and even handled all the buttons on my dress for me!

    Greatful Newly Weds

    My wife and I highly recommend Azaria Chavira! She was easy to get a hold of, very communicative and helpful getting things planned. The experience we had working with her was very professional but also on a personal level as she made us feel more comfortable while taking pictures. Azaria took the most beautiful pictures of our special day and we are forever greatful to have chosen her as our photographer for such a memorable occasion. We will always remember her making our day feel a little more magical as she made us smile and laugh and being able to take pictures that truly captured who we are.

    Best Decision ever!

    Azaria! Where do I start when it comes to her and her as a photographer!? She genuinely has been phenomenal all the way around. Not just as a professional photographer but also someone who wants and gives her clients her 110% best and it absolutely shows! She's been insanely patient with me and very reassuring too. Although I am her client who booked her for our engagement photo's and wedding, I have to say there is not a single individual who could compare to the work she's provided. Her confidence, communication, professionalism and reassurance is definitely top tier!! I have total faith in her and what she does, that I wouldn't change a single thing or have it any other way! Her photo's are proof! Her personality is proof. She is so approachable but professional as well as understanding that it was very easy for me to gravitate to her. I know from the moment we had our phone consultation that I knew I just had to have her. Her photo's are gorgeous and the fact I can be so comfortable and be myself makes the photo's even better. Like think about it? If you can't have a client relationship with who your hiring as an important key to your day is it really worth it? Yeah there's a ton of photographers out there but Azaria, I dont regret her and her work for a single second. When she tells you it's about you and what you want what... she means that from the heart. Not to mention she's such a good hype person to have in your corner. I adore this woman so much and her work that I'm already planning on doing photo's with her for when my husband to be and I have our 1st wedding anniversary! She's got an eye for photography and a passion that runs deep in her heart! When I say I recommend her, I truly mean I recommend her without a single doubt!


Typically, couples book me about 6-14 months before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about my availability, even if you’re planning on a shorter time frame.
Definitely. All final images will be edited for color, saturation, exposure, and sharpness to ensure they look beautiful. I also offer retouching services like blemish removal, teeth whitening, hair flyaway, and anything that is distracting from the photo for an additional charge.
My turnaround time varies by season. Typically, you’ll be able to view your photos online about 6-8 weeks after your wedding. Within this time, you can also expect to receive an online gallery with high-resolution image files, so you can share the photos with your loved ones and order prints.
I do! Just let me know if your venue requires a certificate of liability, and I’ll send that over to them.
You can expect an average of 80 images per hour of photographing. But keep in mind this estimate varies depending on your wedding package, number of guests, venue type, and other factors.
Sometimes, I’ll bring one assistant depending on the size of your wedding. Don’t worry, this won’t cost you extra. It helps the day run smoothly.
