Our Photography Journey

LUBA SPEACH was founded on a simple, powerful belief: every moment has a story worth telling. Our journey began with a passion for capturing the authentic connections, raw emotions, and unique beauty that define life's most important chapters.

What started as a personal pursuit of artistic expression has grown into a dedicated San Diego studio, committed to providing professional, high-quality photography for all. We specialize in creating a comfortable, inclusive environment where every client—especially LGBTQIA+ couples and families—feels seen, celebrated, and free to be themselves.
