Hi! I'm Ian Zandi.
 
I'm the founder of Zandimancam and Zandimancam Weddings.
I'm a Los Angeles-based entertainment photographer who developed my cinematic heartfelt vision into capturing weddings. My work has been featured in notable publications such as CNN, NPR, LA Times, Variety, Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, and recognized by the Abbey Road Music Photography Awards.
My wedding photography style is largely documentary-focused and inspired by cinema's visual language with direction provided for portraits. Whether you're having a bowling reception, costume party, or a classic beachside ceremony, I'm there to capture the moment of now, forever. With my unique background, the images you receive aren't going to be the beige-drenched airy wedding photos that any other photographer can give. The images I provide are through an experienced editorial lens.
I warmly embrace couples of all backgrounds and identities. Whether the love involves LGBTQIA+ inclusion, cultural tradition or clowning (yes, I've covered multiple literal clown weddings), I capture the special day with respect, empathy and storytelling.
Avoiding any further sales word fluffery, I believe the images best speak for themselves.
Have any questions? Send over a message and I'll get back to you ASAP.
Testimonials
You would be so lucky to have Ian capture your event, wedding, film set, portrait, anything!
The man is truly gifted and magical. Still can't figure out whether our event was this magical itself, or if Ian just so happened to create the magic himself with his camera. We were so pleased with his services, and are still looking at his photos in awe of how and when he captured certain moments. (He just might be Spider-man with some of the angles he captured.) Truly indebted to his creativity, timeliness, leadership, and fun-loving spirit. He even handled some kiddos who were less-than-excited to be on camera, with utmost professionalism, joyous tenacity, and focused fun. Would trust him to photograph anything. He makes life look better with his photos, and his instincts are spot-on. Highly recommend, and can't wait to work with him again.

Ian photographed our wedding and did an incredible job! We are obsessed with our photos. He planned everything and we didn’t have to worry. He has also photographed many of me and my wife’s live comedy shows, as well as portraits and headshots. He can do it all, he’s the best!
