My name is Ian and I'm a photographer in greater the Los Angeles area. That's my wife Tanya over there too- she's great with clients and has a fantastic fashion sense [we got married at Point Lobos, CA ourselves a few years back]. I specialize in Wedding Photography and LA Headshots but you'll often catch me out shooting landscapes and traveling insane distances to visit National Parks in my spare time.
In my wedding photography I like to combine both, so I guess I'm a landscape-wedding photographer. I love long roadtrips and have been all over the US from Rhode Island to California. I enjoy planning far away trips and going over to Europe to drive around aimlessly for an extended amount of time [especially Iceland!]. Tanya and I run Ian Grant Photography out of our beach spot in the Los Angeles suburb of Playa del Rey, CA. Enjoy your stay, and feel free to introduce yourself!
Wedding dates for 2012/2013 are quickly filling up! If you're interested in having us shoot your wedding or event, please contact us and we'll get right back to you! Feel free to let us know your wedding ideas and how we can help!
Thank you for visiting! -Ian and Tanya
Hi everyone, You might have noticed we've been absent from this blog lately, and rest assured there's a very good reason. On November 20th we welcomed our daughter, Lily Madeline Grant. She was born at 3:23 am, was 19 inches, and weighed in at 5 lbs 14 oz. She's been our biggest and best project...
Manhattan Beach Baby Photography Little Madeline is growing up! Last we checked in with her she was barely 1 month old, now she's already 7 months and getting into everything. It's been so much fun seeing her grow from a little newborn and keep that crazy personality we saw from the start..and such perfect facial...

Our little wombmate Lily is getting pretty huge and Tanya and I are getting more excited by the day! As of today she's about 30 1/2 weeks developed and has gone from floating around and sneak kicks to constantly pressing against Tanya's belly and giving nice little skin moving jabs. I usually get in bed...

uhh... in that last picture Lily looks like an alien who wants to eat your face.

hahahaha! That's hilarious! Tanya has been starting the waddle, it can only get worse from here.

Oy. It was well past 32 weeks. It was really hard to roll over to the edge of the bed, and I pulled a muscle in my leg scooting over one day. I foolishly said that "my scooting leg' hurt. But the story has been bastardized by some people :::cough Jeremy Gross cough::: to include a hill billy accent and moaning.

She needed it to get out of bed towards the end of her pregnancy. Hysterical!

What's a scooting leg? I'm afraid.

Ask Julia Nardelli Gross about her scootin' leg - I think it started at about 30 weeks!
When Fernando, told Cherisha that he wanted to give her the gift of family portraits, she spent months looking for the right photographer. She wanted someone who would be happy to shoot her six-month-old daughter, Isabelle, along with her other "babies," dogs Cubbie and Bear. Funny enough, when we joined up at Malibu Creek State...

Love the last few photos of her. Great photos as always! :)
Corie is our great photogenic photographer friend and it's been a lot of fun seeing her go through pregnancy [see below] and then have her little beauty Jaelyn. A week or so ago we went and hung out at the shore in Long Beach and let little Jaelyn play in the sand and make a...

Great moments, you captured there! You could send the photo with the kid looking sideways to GAP, looks like an image from thir catalog ;)
How adorable is this little guy? Mason was just a few days old when we first met him out near Palm Springs, California. As you can tell by some of the photos he already has quite the personality! There's something really special about photographing babies this small- it seems like they grow exponentially by the...

He is just adorable.... love how simple, but PERFECT these shots are!!!
We had such a blast shooting Katie and Patrick's wedding last year that we were thrilled when they told us they would be welcoming their first child. Madeline Jane was born just before we headed to New Zealand and we got to meet her when we returned. What a treat! Madeline is one of the...

Ian,
What an amazing baby portfolio this is! True to your nature, your unique perspective on life is apparent and I can not imagine that any new parents or grandparents who view these photos will not rush to call you!
They are spectacular!
