Photography Locations
Based in San Diego. Available wherever the story goes.
From the coast and city neighborhoods to open desert, mountains, and destinations farther from home.
Madeleine photographs weddings, couples, portraits, families, maternity sessions, creatives, and lifestyle stories throughout San Diego County and Southern California. A location does not need to be famous to photograph beautifully. The best setting is usually one that fits your pace, your plans, and the way you want the session to feel.

Choosing a Location
The place should support the story, not overpower it.
Some sessions feel right near the water. Others need downtown streets, open fields, a family home, a quiet neighborhood, or the landscape of a destination trip. Madeleine can help narrow down options based on light, accessibility, privacy, timing, and the overall feeling you want from the photographs.
Destination Photography
Available across all 50 states and for select international destinations.
Destination availability depends on the date, location, travel schedule, and type of coverage. Travel can be built into a custom wedding, elopement, couples, or lifestyle collection.
