“Mandee, I don't even know what to say. The photos are incredible. The colors… the composition… the little moments where we didn't even perceive that there was a camera on us... I don't quite know how to explain this, but I feel lucky to even be IN these photos, which are truly WORKS OF ART.”  - Lindsay & Sam

Portrait of Mandee Johnson drinking coffee

HELLO! I’M MANDEE

I’m a Los Angeles wedding photographer. I live near the ocean with my partner Joel and our many plants. I’m from the Midwest originally, Indiana, to be exact. I've published a beautiful coffee table book about independent comedy in Los Angeles with portraits shot on my 4x5 camera, am a big ACFC fan, and love old movies on TCM.

I want you to have the most fun ever on your wedding day, and I’ll be there to capture it all—the laughter, tearful vows, unforgettable moments, all the big feels, and, of course, the epic dance parties. We’ll even sprinkle in some beautiful portraits along the way.

On any given weekend, you can find me at a wedding or elopement anywhere in the world, capturing a love story with my documentary editorial style on digital and analog film.

Relaxed. Candid. You.
