Allan Droyan Photography

I live in the small town of Fort Bragg, located on the Mendocino coast in Northern California.

I ventured into professional photography about ten years ago. Until then I had a shop in San Francisco specializing in acoustic bass restoration. I’d always been interested in cameras, but hadn’t considered photography as a profession until I move here. The spectacular coast line and pristine landscape had a profound influence on my photography interests.

Over the years I found that interest in land and seascapes shifting toward photographing people. Shooting in a studio, at sporting event, concert, wedding or on the street, the camera affords me the ability to capture unexpected and deeply moving emotional moments that would otherwise go unnoticed and lost. Thank you for visiting my site, I hope you’ve enjoyed what you’ve see.

Wedding Photography

I approach wedding photography as a documentarian.  In addition to photographing your family portraits, I focus on capturing those emotionally engaging moments which will forever bring you back to this glorious day in your lives.
Anticipating and recording  the fleeting,  heart felt moments is what motivates my creativity.  What  better  place then a wedding, where such joyous loving encounters  are on display.  Unlike family or friends, I am not part of  the festivities,  affording  me the advantage of being an objective outside observer.
