The Beth
in Beth Legg Photography
Photography is intimate, so you probably want to know a little bit about who's on the other side of the camera.
I can't wait to get to know you!
Hey there, I'm Beth (she/her): an Elopement, Wedding, and Lifestyle Photographer! I'm based in the beautiful San Diego, CA and love documenting worldwide. With a heart for capturing authentic moments and a love for planning, I'm here to help genuinely document your day and prioritize your presence and comfort. I'm a type A Virgo, and you best believe I have backup plans galore. Here are some of my values:
IMPACT WITH EVERY BOOKING.
I'm very passionate about recognizing privilege and supporting non-profits, so 5% of every full-price session booking goes to any nonprofit you'd like to help me support. I have many local and national nonprofits I can recommend depending on what cause you're most passionate about.
REAL MOMENTS, REAL EMOTIONS.
Less posing, more candids – I'm here for the genuine moments. Think laughter, stolen glances, and those moments that are unique to you and your person.
RELAXED VIBES, MAXMUM PRESENCE.
Your wedding day (or any session!) should be about all of the moments, not stressing over details. From being your supportive confidante to ensuring the day flows seamlessly, I'm here to make sure you're fully present to take it all in. No matter your style—traditional, unconventional, or a blend—I'm committed to making your vision come to life.
ADVENTURE IS ANYWHERE (& EVERYWHERE).
Whether you're exchanging vows on a mountaintop or wandering through your favorite city spots, I'm there to capture your unique adventure. I've also got a knack for planning in urban and remote environments, so you can focus on the adventure while I handle the logistics.
YOUR ADVENTURE, YOUR STORY.
From San Diego to anywhere your love takes you from nationwide to worldwide, I'm all about those real, unfiltered moments that make your connection uniquely you. Whether you're hiking, dancing, or hugging your dogs, I'm here to capture your story, adventure, and all of the details that make it special.
It's so lovely to meet you.

How it's going:
As you might’ve guessed, a lot has changed since I was 13. I’m now openly queer, live in California, have fallen in love with a wonderful human and with capturing love, and photographed hundreds of adventure sessions over the span of more than a decade. As a curious introvert, I take genuine interest in getting to know couples, and during every adventure session, my approach is to capture both candid moments and guided prompts. This way, I ensure couples feel truly seen and supported, with their unique love and dynamics captured. My style is documentary and true to life colors, and I still chase sunsets and get giddy with excitement when someone is down to wake up at sunrise with me for photos (this is your sign to do a sunrise elopement).
How it started:
When I was 13, I got my first DSLR camera to begin the 365 project - one photo a day for a year (fun fact: it’s still on Flickr to this day... happy Googling). It ended up being many photos many days, and I craved any opportunity to explore a new field or an abandoned building (edgy, I know...). Not much has changed. After school, I went on photo excursions with my grandma - shooting in film and digital. As someone freaked out at how transitory moments are, photography helped me freeze the big moments and slow down to appreciate the smaller ones I’d otherwise take for granted. I’ve always been sentimental AF and very much a romantic, so it did not take me long to discover that couples photography is my truest passion.
