Los Angeles and Santa Barbara Wedding Photography Blog by Photographer Ian Grant bio picture
  • Welcome to Ian Grant Photography

    Thank you for checking in on our blog! 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 design and fashion sense.   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. 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 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!

Malibu Creek State Park Engagement Session - Deepa and Bart

One of the [many] amazing weddings we have to look forward to this year is that of Deepa and Bart. They're going to be getting married at the fantastic old California style Adamson House overlooking the ocean.  I think since the first time we saw it [ironically while we were out shooting landscapes] we thought it would be an awesome venue, and it's right by the pier in Malibu.  Anyway, back to Deepa and Bart- our first connection to them was through Tanya as they were going to be having a traditional Indian engagement ceremony down in Irvine and wanted us to shoot it.  Sadly it was last August and I was tramping through Switzerland at the time.  So off Tanya and a friend went to shoot it and I was incredibly jealous when I got back and was editing through the photos- such vibrant colors with lots of reds and teals!  Their wedding is coming up in early May and we can't wait.  Since they're real nature people like us we chose to do their engagement session over in Malibu Creek State Park up in the Santa Monica Mountain Preserve.  It's a great place to get away from Los Angeles, especially now when everything is beautifully green.  I hope you enjoy the photos!
