Changing Lives With One Click At A Time AllanKuoPhotography.com For me, witnessing a wedding is the greatest honor of being a photographer. Whether in rustic backyards or grand ballrooms, the greatest story is told through the couple and the lens that captures their most powerful moments. I take pride in skill, but most of all, commitment. Some say patience is a virtue; however, commitment transcends time. Commitment to my craft, commitment to honoring the couple, commitment to making their day one to remember. From the Monterey seas to the golden hills of Napa County, I travel to preserve memories. From hilarious happenings to once-in-a-lifetime moments, I strive to capture life's most meaningful memories. Destination to local, I do it all. My years as a wedding and lifestyle photographer have given me a keen eye, deep professionalism and creativity. I shoot in cities ranging from the Monterey Bay Area to Santa Cruz and surrounding areas, as well as the South Bay (Los Gatos, San Jose, Marin County, San Francisco and Mill Valley), and the East and North Bay (Fremont, Oakland, Berkeley, Napa and Wine County).

Thank you for understanding Hi! I’m Payton. I am an artist + photographer from California. I love what I do, and I take the time to make sure each and every photo is beautiful, and that your memories are captured. I turn your stories into art, giving you the opportunity to relive that special moment for years to come.

Growing up I was always the girl taking pictures with my phone of moments with my friends and family, whether they were big or small. I would collect keychains, tickets, snowglobes, or any little souvenir to remember those moments by. I'm a sucker for memories. Then I got my first camera and I absolutely loved it. It made me realize the power of a photo, being able to freeze in time an important moment for someone and them being able to treasure it for the rest of their life. I can't wait to capture yours :)
