Juan and Abygail Padilla, Sacramento husband‑and‑wife photographers in cinematic light, authentic portrait session

Husband and wife, full-time photographers, and the duo behind The Padillas Studio based in Sacramento, California. Since 2019, we’ve been telling stories through quinceañera and wedding photography that feels personal, emotional, and timeless. We believe photography should feel like you. And we’re here to make sure it does.

We’re Juan and Abygail Padilla

Our work is rooted in connection. We don’t just show up with cameras, we show up to see people. Whether it’s a dad tearing up during a first look or a quinceañera laughing with her court, our goal is always to capture the real moments, the ones that matter most.

Over the years, we’ve photographed hundreds of events, taught classes at WPPI and Masterclass Mexico, and built a community of creatives who care deeply about their craft. Our clients know us for our attention to detail, our fashion-inspired editorial style, and our commitment to making them feel seen and celebrated every step of the way.


 

As recognized ImagineAI Ambassadors and Geekoto Ambassadors, we're proud to stay at the forefront of photography innovation. Whether it's AI-powered editing or lighting that turns a good shot into a masterpiece, we only use the tools we trust, and love sharing them with our community.
