About Sd Photo Studio

Sd Photo Studio

Photographer & Videographer

Hi, I’m Chris Wood—founder of SD Photo Studio and a wedding photographer with over 24 years of experience capturing authentic, timeless moments. Based in San Diego, I’ve had the honor of documenting weddings all across Southern California, In addition to my work behind the camera, I’ve spent the past 10 years teaching photography at UC San Diego, including courses in portrait photography. I believe the best photos come from a relaxed atmosphere and genuine connection. I’ll help you feel confident in front of the camera and deliver a final gallery that truly reflects your day.

What sets me apart is 24 years of wedding photography experience and 10 years teaching portrait photography at UCSD. Unlike many California studios that assign a photographer from their team, I personally photograph every wedding—bringing my full expertise, attention to detail, and calm, professional presence to your day.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Chris for our wedding and portrait photography, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, Chris was incredibly easy to work with—friendly, professional, and always quick to respond to our questions. He captured our day beautifully, especially the stunning sunset shots that we’ll treasure forever. Chris has a natural talent for managing both the wedding party and guests with ease, keeping everything relaxed and enjoyable while still staying on schedule. Our final gallery was delivered in a surprisingly short time, and every photo was exactly what we hoped for—full of emotion, beautifully composed, and a true reflection of the day. If you're looking for a photographer who’s both skilled and a joy to work with, we highly recommend Chris!

Sd Photo Studio was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was prompt, polite, and extremely helpful. Chris, our lead photographer, was an amazing communicator and demonstrated incredible attention to detail throughout the entire process. He helped us create a detailed timeline that kept the day relaxed and stress-free. On the wedding day, Chris was a joy to be around and captured every moment beautifully with his clean, artistic style. The final photos were absolutely stunning and we are thrilled with the value we received from Sd Photo Studio. We highly recommend them to any couple planning their special day.
