VALIN is a wedding photography studio based in Los Angeles, CA blending editorial elegance and documentary soul
Hi, my name is Sage and I’m the artist behind the Valin brand. I’m a wedding photographer based in Los Angeles. Inspired by the beauty of storytelling through photojournalism, my goal is to encapsulate the narrative of your day through the point of view of your loved ones. I’m a quiet and eager observer waiting to capture the laughs, the tears, and everything in between — so you can be present for every moment.
Outside of photography, I fill my days trying new food spots in town, watching comedy specials, and sketching random people at coffee shops. As an artist and designer, I like learning and exploring different mediums to stay creative — from painting and cinema to architecture and dance.
Thanks for stopping by! If you have any questions, concerns, or cafe recommendations, you can reach me at hello@sagetimog.com
ABOUT
Los Angeles based, traveling anywhere.
PHILOSOPHY
An approach that encourages you to live the moment. A style that exudes timeless sophistication. Creating heirlooms that thoughtfully preserve your story.
Your wedding experience should feel like an excursion into the present moment — as your wedding celebrations begin, I encourage you to let go and immerse yourself in the wonder of it all.
Contemporary. Nostalgic. Timeless.
Documentary-style photography with a slice of editorial.
I understand the culmination of hard work and dedication that happens behind every wedding day. From the meticulously woven patterns on the white dress to the carefully curated table pieces on the reception table. With years of experience and an artistic eye, my mission is to capture every detail in its essence, preserving every fleeting moment — the heartwarming laughs, the tender caresses, the silent hums of anticipation. Each moment and detail is a testament to the commitment and effort poured into creating your special day. I aim to craftfully weave the essence of your day onto the fabric of time, a tapestry of memories treasured for years to come.
“Thank you so much for bringing our wedding vision to life with such care and professionalism. We are truly grateful for your dedication and the special touches to make sure we have the most unforgettable photos!”
— Miribel & James
