Phavy Photography: Timeless and Natural Wedding Photography in St. Augustine
Phavy is a wedding photographer in St. Augustine, with a catholic background. She is an asian wedding photographer, specializing in Khmer, Vietnamese, and Filipino weddings. My name is pronounced “Pah-Vee.” I’m a wedding photographer based in St. Augustine, Florida (but I love traveling anywhere for beautiful weddings). My work is clean, true-to-color, and timeless—never moody or vintage—with a polished, classy feel that shows the day exactly as it happened.
The Phavy Photography Philosophy
I capture weddings in a way that reflects my clients: stylish, modern, and timeless. Their celebrations feel elegant and editorial, yet emotionally grounded, with sophisticated fashion, intentional details, and architecture that adds depth. I document it all candidly, letting the day unfold naturally without interrupting it with stiff posing. My goal is for you to actually get to enjoy your wedding day; the day is for you to enjoy, and I am here to capture it. The PHAVY experience is defined by:
- Pure
- Heartfelt
- Artistic
- Visuals of You

A Specialized Photography Experience
As a full-time wedding photographer, I have captured countless beautiful moments and created lasting memories for couples. One of the things that sets me apart is my diverse portfolio; I have worked with couples from various cultural backgrounds and have experience capturing both traditional and non-traditional weddings. With my guidance, we will be able to get the most natural looking photos so that you do not feel overly posed.
Our experience with Phavy exceeded our expectations! Within a week of our wedding, we received a package at the door and it was our physical wedding album!! A WEEK!!! Shortly after the delivery, we received an email with a link to our full gallery. All of it was so beautiful! Phavy really pours her heart and soul into her work and it shows!
Booking and Logistics
Once you're ready to book, simply fill out the inquiry form. I require a signed contract and a non-refundable retainer to secure your date. After that, we’ll begin planning all the exciting details to make sure your wedding photography experience is perfect! To ensure peace of mind, I am fully insured, which is often required by venues. For larger celebrations, a second photographer is available upon request to capture more moments from different perspectives.
