Meet the Team Behind Captured by Weinchez

Hi, we're Sam & George

 

Captured by Weinchez was built around a shared love for storytelling, movement, and creating imagery that feels both polished and deeply human.


Led by husband-and-wife team Sam & George Weinchez, our work blends artistic direction with modern commercial sensibility; creating visuals designed to feel intentional, dynamic, and authentic.


While we’re widely known for our work with dancers and performers throughout San Diego, our approach extends across portrait, branding, hospitality, and commercial photography.


Whether we’re photographing audition headshots, restaurant campaigns, branding content, or studio media days, our goal remains the same: to create imagery that people genuinely connect with.


We believe the best photos come from collaboration, trust, and creating an environment where clients feel comfortable enough to simply be themselves.

We're glad you're here

Collaborative

We guide every session with intentional direction while creating space for natural moments and genuine personality.

Movement-Driven

Our work is rooted in energy, emotion, and storytelling, creating imagery that feels dynamic rather than overly posed.

Modern & Intentional

From lighting and composition to editing and delivery, every detail is approached with a clean, polished, and modern aesthetic.
