Tina Swain Photography Lifestyle & Portrait Photographer | Sacramento Based Unless it's the rainy season. Then you'll find me in my Hunter rain boots!

I am a california girl, through and through with a love for dogs, coffee, whiskey sours, music, and the northern california coast. I'm mostly known for creating client experiences that are Both FUN AND laid back to cultivate authentic moments and delivering bold and emotive images.
​
Most days you can find me in some raw hem jeans, a comfy oversized t-shirt, and some sandals or cute shoes. I'm also kind of into hats lately, so you may catch me in one of those!​

In 2019, my husband Andrew and I were married in an elopement style ceremony on the Oregon coast. It was just the two us *queue Will Smith*, our officiant, our equally awesome and talented photographer, Melissa and videographer, Craig. So it goes without saying, I'm a huge fan of elopements and intimate ceremonies! I'm so lucky to have found such a great guy in Andrew. I never imagined I would meet someone who I could enjoy all of my favorite things with: a love for dogs, sports, the homebody lifestyle, classic rock, early 2000s hip-hop, Sci-Fi, and so much more. When I met Andrew, I knew what it meant to have dreams come true! Friends, family, and clients have described me as patient, fun, and flexible as well as "a delight to work with."

Fall tends to be my busiest time of year, so if you’ve been thinking about photos, September is a great time to snag a spot before the holiday rush really gets going. 🤎

It’s almost one of my favorite times of the year. And I’m not just saying that cause my birthday happens to land around the same time 😆 Almond blossom season is coming and it won’t last long. Neither do my almond mini sessions! So now’s the time to book.

For a short window in mid-to-late February, the orchards in Northern California transform into the most magical spring backdrop. 🌸✨

These 20-minute mini sessions are perfect for families, couples, graduating seniors, or anyone looking for timeless photos in a beautiful blossom setting.

⚠️ Limited dates. Limited spots. No repeats.

👉 Booking is open now.
