Women Owned, Latina Owned

Hellena Cedeño Photography

Latina Wedding Photographer.

I am a SoCal Native and moved to the bay area in 2015. My heart will always be in SoCal but home is the bay!

When it comes to capturing your story, I strive to make the session fun and relaxed. As your photographer my role is not only to deliver your images but to capture YOU!

When I am not a photographer, I am a full-time advocate for gender-based violence and an abolisher of mass incarceration of black and brown folks. I am a fur mama, Centro Americana 100%, hot Cheetos with Limon lover, wife, and recently became a mama of a sweet little human.

As a Latina in a wedding industry often dominated by white and cisgender narratives, I’m here to break the mold and celebrate diversity, culture, and felicidad through my images. I deeply believe in uplifting communities whose voices have been silenced, embracing an era where our skin, bodies, and identities are seen and celebrated. This is also an era where we refuse to stay silent about injustices, racism, and inequality.
I’m a lifelong learner, committed to being an ally in action, not just in words. For me, being an ally goes beyond hashtags like #loveislove or Black Lives Matter—it’s about fighting against inequality, amplifying silenced voices, and truly seeing people for who they are. When you book a session with me, you can expect me to show up as my most authentic self—outspoken, vulnerable, and real.

What’s the most rewarding thing about being a wedding pro?

The joy of the entire celebration, hearing the vows, and speeches connecting with your loved ones truly fills my heart.

How do you prefer to get your caffeine fix?

LARGE 3 SHOT ICED VANILLA LATTE and afternoon iced matcha (drool).

How do you go above and beyond for your clients?

What do you need that day? Because whatever it is I am your person, I will have my kit if a button falls, need a touch up I GOTCHU, running a few mins late on the timeline we worked on NO PROBLEM I can take care of it. I am there to bring ease not stress.
