 My Approach

I’m Asantae, the heart behind Asantae Photography. My work is rooted in creating timeless, editorial wedding photography that blends the elegance of fine art with the authenticity of real moments. I strive to capture images that feel both cinematic and deeply personal—photos that will remain just as alive decades from now as they are today.

I’m originally from Missouri, but in October of 2023 I made the move to San Diego, a place that has quickly become home. My love for photography started back in high school and what began as a passion soon grew into a full-time career—one that allows me to tell stories of love, connection, and celebration through my lens.

At 24, I’m proud to run a queer-owned business where all love and all people are welcomed and celebrated. Representation matters to me, and I bring that value into every wedding and session I document.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll likely find me at the beach, on long walks with my dog Coco, or enjoying a good cup of coffee.
