DENNIS MOCK
PHOTOGRAPHER
I began my journey as a sports and architectural photographer in San Diego, but when I discovered a draw to wedding and family photography, I decided to switch lanes. Today, I enjoy telling each unique story -- highlighting all the personality and joy that comes with it -- that comes my way
.
My spontaneity and documentary spirit have earned dozens of local and national awards from professional photographers associations, including PPA, WPPI, PPC , PPSDC, as well as national camera companies like Kodak and Fuji.
I’ve even been recognized as a Master Photographer and a Photographic Craftsmen by the Professional Photographers of America (PPA) and awarded “San Diego Photographer of the Year” many times by the Professional Photographers of San Diego County (PPSDC).

"I hired Dennis to do family photos while we were on vacation in San Diego. He was incredibly easy to work with— even from 1,000 miles away. My family had more fun on this photo-shoot than any other, so much so that my 7-year-old didn’t want to leave.
And the photos... my goodness, the photos... he sent us well over 80 beautiful images, at least 20 made me gasp when I saw them. And I’m very picky! :) Some posed shots, and many ‘lifestyle’ shots that showed love, fun, and happiness. Simply priceless pictures that I will cherish. Could not recommend more highly" .

"We want to sincerely THANK YOU for the amazing pictures! They are so beautiful!! You have created a treasure for us that we can look back at for many years! Thanks again Dennis for taking your time to tell our story! We look forward to working with you again!"

We’ve been working with Dennis since 2007 and are continuously impressed. He has taken our engagement shots (one of which was featured in the NY Times), our wedding photos (featured in San Diego Wedding magazine), and has done five family portrait sessions.
As a former sports photographer, he is a master at capturing spontaneous moments and true emotions. He’s professional, easy to work with, good with kids, and above all supremely talented. There’s a reason he’s in such high demand and we feel so fortunate to have found him. You will not be disappointed”.
WHAT TO WEAR

Clothing is always what makes parents the most nervous to plan a family session. Just know that as long as your family is being themselves, that is what is the most important! But here are a few general rules of thumb I advise clients to follow:
Wear something you can move in without worrying about it. Comfort is key!
Plan minimal outfit changes for kids. They don't like it, so try to keep it to a single change, if any.
Don't match! No one matches in real life, so don't start on picture day.
