ABOUT ARI

My name is Ari Simphoukham (Sim-pu-come). I'm a visual storyteller and wedding photographer currently living in Roseville, CA. My goal as a wedding photographer is to produce images that illustrate the love between not only the bride and the groom but also between the couple and the people that mean the world to them.

In my opinion, if you are not left smiling while scrolling through your wedding pictures from beginning to end and finding captured moments that you didn't even know happened during your wedding, I did not thoroughly do my job. I thrive on creativity, open-mindedness, positivity, and enthusiasm. Here are few random facts about myself that will hopefully give you a feel for who I am and what I'm about.

PHILOSOPHY

As a wedding photographer, my goal is to capture the story of your wedding day. I want to create images that reflect what you're feeling during all the emotional peaks at your wedding.

I believe that the most powerful images are produced when they are captured unscripted and unforced. With the exception of the creative portraitures, every aspect of your wedding day is documented as they unfold throughout the day as if I were a reporter covering the news.

If my photos speak to you and you like my photojournalistic style balanced with dynamic portraiture, then I look forward to hearing from you!

My Wife

This was the day I asked my high school sweetheart to marry me in Hawaii . I feel incredibly lucky to have Kat in my life. She's been my biggest supporter since day one and continues to be by my side to push and motivate me everyday.

My Dog

I have a shih tzu named Azor whom we both adore. In case you're wondering what his name means, Azor is a blood pressure medication. Yes, we named him after a drug! I love my dog!
