Welcome to my blog

My name is Alma Beltran, and I am a wedding and portrait
photographer based in Southern California. I photograph in
Orange, Los Angeles and San Diego counties, and I am available
to travel within the US.

I love capturing children's candid expressions and unique
personalities as well as the variety of emotions experienced
by couples on their wedding day. This blog follows my journey
as a photographer and gives you a glimpse into my personal life.
Thanks for visiting and please leave a comment...I would love to
hear from you.



Temecula Wedding
August 08, 2011.,

Merici and Ray had their wedding at Falkner Winery, a beautiful venue on top of the hill overlooking the valley below. The happy couple seemed overwhelmed with happiness on their special day as evidenced by their smiles, tenderness and tears of joy. After the ceremony Merici and Ray had a moment to themselves and Merici became tearful as she looked at the beautifully decorated venue. She explained that everything turned out exactly the way she envisioned it.

Merici and Ray, thank you for asking me to photograph your wedding. I wish you much love and happiness.

Thanks Gina for photographing this wedding with me.

Merici’s mother hand made her gorgeous wedding gown.

I finally get to post these pictures of Logan, the new member of the Pheng family. He was the perfect baby model and I look forward to photographing him and his older brother Scout in the future.






Los Angeles County family portraits
November 18, 2009.,

I had an early morning session with the De La Cruz family at a new location. They introduced me to a nice scenic walkway with views of the Queen Mary and the harbor; the weather and location couldn’t have been more perfect. Their beautiful boys were very cooperative even though they had to get up very early and deviated from their regular routine to do this shoot. Thanks for showing me this location; I’ll be coming back in the future.
