Hi! I'm Zaina.

Meet your Photographer

I believe in the power of storytelling

At the age of 13, I was gifted my first camera and used it to capture fleeting moments of family and friends, never imagining it would become my true calling. Now, I channel my passion for storytelling into crafting visual narratives that commemorate your biggest moments and romanticize the everyday ones. 

Beyond the camera, you can find me rock climbing at a local gym, exploring nature's trails, discovering hidden gems in coffee shops, or diving into a good book.

Zaina is incredible. She shot our wedding photos and we are truly stunned! We couldn't have asked for a better photographer or person to be with us on our day. She was unbelievably patient and kind and even met up with us before our wedding to do location scouting. She is extremely professional and an expert at her craft. We will cherish these photos for a lifetime. BOOK ZAINA! Don't even think twice! 5/5 stars!!

the world's our oyster

Shooting weddings near, far and everywhere

I find inspiration in nature and the incredible landscapes that surround us -- from grassy fields and rolling hills, to lush waterfalls and sun-kissed mountains. I'm a firm believer in the healing power of nature, and that greenspace is a place for all to enjoy. I let this mantra guide my craft and my work.

What better way to honor these places than to unite in them with the love of your life? I'm available for travel and would be absolutely honored to document your once-in-a-lifetime adventure. 

I offer discounts for destination weddings and bucket list locations. Reach out to learn more!

"We hired Zaina to be our wedding photographer, and we couldn’t have made the better choice! All of the pictures turned out incredible, and she was so chill and professional to work with. She made us feel comfortable when we took our engagement & wedding pictures, and she was great with communication throughout the entire process. We love her work and we can’t wait to hire her for the future!"

"My fiancé and I booked Zaina for an engagement shoot and we couldn’t have been happier! I live in Canada so she was so helpful in suggesting locations and helping create the vision we were looking for. On the day of the shoot she made us feel super comfortable and was able to direct our poses so effortlessly and on top of that, she made it so much fun!! Our pictures turned out better than we could have expected. Definitely recommend Zaina to anyone whose looking for stunning pictures to last a lifetime!!"

Zaina keeps calm, cool, and collected taking beautiful photos, keeping your family at ease, and rolling with the ebbs and flows of your wedding evening. She touched base throughout the night and made sure to say goodbye before heading out for the evening, with a quick return on beautiful photos - she worked flawlessly with a darker setting at our church. She worked well with my type B personality and I would recommend her for any and all activities you need a photographer for.

Zaina was such a blessing on our wedding day! She was patient and passionate. She was excited for us and sought to understand us before our big day. We loved her!
