Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose us?
CaliPhotography was formed in early 2006 with the mission to become the best photographers around. We are a group of like-minded individuals who appreciate top quality and creating art for you, not just "taking photos".
We got our start in motorsports here in Southern California and built a large following of dedicated customers. After countless times being asked if we shot weddings or portraits, we turned our skill set to this fabulous new world of art.
We're having so much fun with our clients, and they love what we have done, that we're putting most of our effort into this area of the business.
We look forward to the opportunity to work with you, so we can pour our attention, creativity and energy into making your photographs and video as memorable as your very special day.

What should we wear for our shoot?
It really depends on what your goals are with the shoot. For instance, if this is a corporate head shot, then what you typically wear to work is ideal. If this is a family portrait, then you can dress casual, in your Sunday best, somewhere inbetween, or even themed. Don't forget you can change your clothes for different looks.
