SAN DIEGO & CALIFORNIA ELOPENMENT AND PROPOSAL PHOTOGRAPHER
Thoughtfully planned and beautifully captured proposal moments — with a natural transition into intimate elopements.
Welcome to Replica Photography! I’m Mirjana, a San Diego-based photographer specializing in proposals, elopements, and engagement sessions. With over 400 couples photographed across California, I’m passionate about capturing the real, raw emotions and joyful connections that make your story one-of-a-kind.
Whether you’re planning an intimate beach proposal at Sunset Cliffs, a romantic elopement in Balboa Park, or a fun engagement session exploring the city, I’m here to make the experience smooth, natural, and unforgettable.
About Me
Hi, I’m Mirjana, the photographer behind Replica Photography, based in San Diego. I specialize in proposals, engagements, and elopements across Southern California. My background is in history, so I’ve always cared about stories — the real kind, full of emotion, small details, and connection. Photography lets me preserve those stories honestly, whether it’s a quiet proposal on a San Diego cliff or an adventurous elopement in California’s national parks, including Joshua Tree, Yosemite, Sequoia, and Kings Canyon.
​
My Photography Approach
I don’t force moments or rely on stiff posing. Instead, I listen. I get to know you. During your session, I guide you with gentle direction and simple prompts — things that help you focus on each other and forget the camera is even there. The result? Real expressions, natural movement, and photos that truly feel like you.
​
Let's Connect
I’ve photographed more than 400 couples, each story different, each session personal. My goal is always the same: to create a space where you can be yourselves and walk away with photos that feel meaningful and true. If you’re looking for a romantic, thoughtful, and calm photographer for your proposal, engagement, or elopement — I’d love to work with you. Check out my Elopements page for inspiration and packages.
