Alison Yin Wedding Photography Blog bio picture

Welcome to my Blog!

Hi!  I'm Alison Yin, and I'm a photographer based in Oakland, CA.  I grew up in Los Angeles, and I frequently travel throughout California photographing people and events.  I love traveling to new places and meeting people.

Photography is a way of life for me - I make pictures almost everyday.  I love capturing natural moments and the essence of personalities, and I use my documentary roots to tell the story of your wedding.  Please visit my wedding portfolio here.

You can see more of my work by viewing my editorial portfolio here.

I also share a photojournalism blog with my partner Adm Golub here.

I've created this blog so I can have another platform to share more photos and wedding related resources.  I love feedback so please feel free to leave comments!

Reshma + Jimmy in Pleasanton, CA

Remember Jimmy and Reshma and their double engagement sessions?  Here they are again on their wedding day!  This was Adm’s first wedding back after recovering from back surgery, so I was a little nervous going in, but he did wonderfully and his back seems to be holding up well.  We can’t say enough good things...
