Kenny Phan Photography | Los Angeles & Orange County Photographer bio picture

Hi there!

I am Kenny Phan, a Los Angeles & Orange County photographer specializing in weddings, portraits & events and willing to travel if necessary. Welcome to my website where I will provide to you a glimpse of my love and passion through my images. I am happily married to my gorgeous wife Vanessa of Vanessa Lam Photography and a proud father to our beautiful daughter, Kareena and newborn son, Kyle. Besides my passion for photography, I am also a die hard basketball junkie. 

Vanessa and I are a husband and wife photographer. Even though we may work together at times, we do have our own style. I love to capture the candid moments, letting the photos tell the story. Simple. Memorable. Forever. That's how your photos should turn out.

I hope to have the opportunity to get to know you and be able to capture all the special moments in your life. And at the end of the day, my goal isn't only to provide to you with all the great images, but also to have gained your respect and friendship.

Kenny Phan

Big Bear - Laura & George’s Engagement

This will probably be the only time you will ever hear me say this: “thank god it rained”. I was pretty psyched about driving up to Big Bear to capture Laura and George’s engagement session. Thanks to the rain the mountains were extra gorgeous and were knee high in snow. This was my first time shooting in the snow so I was extra excited. Laura and George are snowboarders so they decided to bring along their boards, which made for excellent props and amazing photos. Great weather (even the sun came out), snow everywhere, great location and a super cool couple only equal to an amazing and fun engagement session.

Check out these super cool photos!

February 8, 2010 - 8:48 pm George & Laura - Thanks Kenny for getting such amazing shots!! We couldn't have asked for a better day in Big Bear. Also wanted to thank Vanessa and Kareena for bearing the traffic and making the 3hr drive up the mountain with us. Love the work buddy, you did good!!!

February 7, 2010 - 1:47 am Brian Fletcher - Nice shots, Kenny! That must have been a lot of fun up there :)

February 5, 2010 - 1:46 pm William - Great session!! Love it!

Big Bear - Kareena’s first snow trip

What was previously only an engagement session in Big Bear also became a mini family trip. It would be Mommy (surprisingly) and Kareena’s first time playing in the snow. Who said you can’t mix business with pleasure. =) It worked out great as Vanessa and Kareena were able to enjoy the awesome snow and weather while I was busy capturing some amazing photos of the lovely couple. Not to mention the rain left us with a beautiful and sunny day with a nice amount of snow to play with. We couldn’t ask for a better situation.

Check out this awesome photo of Big Bear Lake, frozen!

And of course I couldn’t leave without a few sneak peek photos of Laura & George’s engagement session. Hot, and more to come.img_3939img_3984img_4077

Our little addition to the family - meet Kyle

After much delay and many sleepless nights, we are proud to present to you the latest little addition to the Phan family, Kyle. Our little man gave us a big surprise when he decided he wanted out 6 weeks early. Kyle Phan. Born on November 22, 2009. 4.13 lbs. 17.5 inches. He’s almost 2 months old now and easily doubled his weight, almost 10 lbs.

Funny but true: while Vanessa was in the hospital waiting to give birth, I had a wedding to photograph. It’s a good thing the little fellow was kind enough to wait for daddy to make it back. Now that’s what you call exciting!

Here are a few photos of the little fellow we would love to share with all of you. Thanks to mommy for taking these awesome photos. Enjoy.kyle-1akyle-3akyle-7akyle-8akyle-9akyle-11akyle-15akyle-16akyle-20akyle-21a
I couldn’t resist but throw in this photo of big sister Kareena and her little brother. We are definitely very fortunate she’s been a great sister so far (no signs of jealousy…at least not yet). img_2539b
