At Next to Me Studios, we believe the place by your side is special, as are the people who fill it. Be it your better half, new baby, best friend, great-grandmother or your whole tribe, it’s the people you choose to stand next to in life that make it meaningful. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to capture the relationships that matter most in your life.
We are a San Diego family and couples lifestyle photography studio employing a 'crafted candid' approach to capture authentic, beautiful, and personal stories.

OUR APPROACH
We are Visual Storytellers and approach every shoot as a collaboration. We want the shooting experience to be fun and easy—it’s how we capture photos that are True to You. We Seek Beauty believing that nothing is more beautiful than our relationships, and by being Fully Present we are able to create the moments, interactions and experiences that honor our bonds with those who are dear. Our greatest desire is that years from now you’ll look back on your photos and remember these days as if they were yesterday. We are Memory Makers.

We love with a love that is more than love
