About Eden
My name is Eden Xuân, and I’m a destination photographer specializing in preserving celebrations with a mixed editorial and uncontrived approach across New York, California, and worldwide.
Creating has always been part of my personal story, whether through art, music, or a camera lens. It wasn’t until I experienced the profound love I share with my now-husband, Luke, that I truly connected with the beauty of wedding photography.
My dream has come true: I now work with couples who value storytelling, attention to detail, and tailored experiences. I’ve learned that sustainability is key to artisan storytelling—by curating a select number of weddings each year, I ensure every couple receives my full passion and craftsmanship. Past clients have shared that I helped them relive their day, effortlessly capturing meaningful moments while making them feel truly cared for and seen.
I’ve had the privilege of capturing beautiful moments for over seven years now and am deeply honored and humbled to say that my work has been recognized by publications such as Vogue, Together Journal, Loverly, The New York Bride, and others from around the world. But always, my true inspiration comes from documenting stories in a way that feels honest, timeless, and vivid with emotion.
Eden has been named 'Best 40 Wedding Photographers in the US' by The Wed and 'Best 30 Wedding Photographers in New York City' by Wezoree.
What are your wedding photography rates?
Eden offers custom wedding photography experiences tailored to each couple’s unique celebration. Pricing typically begins between $8,000 and $12,000 for digital and film full-day, travel-inclusive coverage, although final pricing is subject to change based on the needs of each individual inquiry, coverage requirements, team additions, and other customizations. Eden creates custom collections for each client, with a minimum 8-hour booking for wedding days.
Do you offer destination weddings?
Yes, Eden specializes in destination weddings and has traveled worldwide to capture love stories. Travel fees are included in the final base package for a seamless, stress-free pricing experience. Eden also handles all travel arrangements for her team, ensuring a smooth process for you.
How far in advance should we book?
Inquiring as soon as possible is recommended, as Eden takes on a limited number of weddings per month to ensure the highest quality of service. Ideally, bookings are made 12-18 months in advance, particularly for destination or multi-day events.
Do you offer film photography?
Yes, Eden incorporates film photography into her packages, adding a timeless, romantic quality to your wedding gallery. Film can be combined with digital photography for a well-rounded collection of images. While Eden’s approach primarily focuses on capturing in-the-moment shots quickly, she often brings in an additional photographer to provide full film coverage throughout the day. That being said, Eden has also solely shot wedding days on film and is completely comfortable doing so.
What’s your approach to a wedding day?
Eden works best with couples who value connection, authenticity, and a refined but effortless style. She captures your day in a documentary style, focusing on intimate, natural moments that unfold organically. Her goal is to create timeless, emotive imagery that tells your story authentically.
How many hours of coverage do you offer?
Eden often guides clients through what she recommends for their specific needs. A minimum of 8 hours of coverage is required for a wedding day, with full-day unlimited coverage available for peace of mind. Multi-day coverage is also offered, which can include events like rehearsal dinners, welcome parties, post-wedding brunches, and honeymoon sessions to capture the full scope of your celebration.
Do you work with a team for weddings?
Yes, Eden often recommends adding team members depending on the location, coverage needs, and size of the guest list. She includes these additional team members in the final quote for an all-inclusive, stress-free pricing experience. Eden hires additional digital and film photographers, assistants, and content creators as needed. While it’s never mandatory to move forward with these recommendations, it’s important to note that Eden presents her best work when her suggestions are followed.
What’s your editing process like?
Eden carefully curates each image, making small adjustments to enhance her clients' natural beauty. However, she does not engage in heavy photoshopping, keeping the images authentic and timeless.
How long will it take to receive our wedding gallery?
Full wedding galleries are delivered within 8-12 weeks, depending on the coverage booked. Other galleries, such as engagement sessions, honeymoon shoots, and pre-wedding bridal portraits, are typically delivered within 4-5 weeks. A one-week full gallery turnaround can be purchased as an add-on.
Can we customize our package?
Yes! Eden offers fully customizable packages to fit your unique celebration. Whether you’re looking for specific event coverage or want to include additional photographers or film services, Eden will work with you to create the perfect package.
