Vivian Bartell Photography

Hello! I am a traveling Southern California Wedding and Elopement Photographer! I enjoy adventure, food, music, nature, comedy, art, and road trips.

What gives me life: scuba diving, cooking, kayaking, hiking, camping, geode hunting, blasting karaoke with friends, having deep conversations, and trying new things.
I was 18 when I started to do photography and I loved it. I used to be in the science field and then became a professional matchmaker for a year. Lots of fun stories and facts to tell about myself! Eventually, I decided to go back into photography starting a whole new chapter after realizing how much "loving what you do" matters. Now I want to capture snippets of peoples lives while bringing out the best in them. By that, I mean I'm going to reach deep inside and capture you as this beautiful piece of work. I want all the raw, true parts of you, and we are going to present it to the world. Let's get comfortable and make some memories.
