About Replica Photography

Mirjana Vidic

Head Photographer

I'm Mirjana, a San Diego photographer specializing in elopements, intimate weddings, and surprise proposals. I've photographed nearly 500 couples over the years, and I still love the part of photography that happens in between the “big moments” — the nervous laughs, the little looks, the hugs, and everything that makes a day feel like yours. I photograph throughout San Diego and Southern California, and I'm also available for Joshua Tree elopements and destination elopements throughout California. I’m here for couples who want beautiful photographs but don't want their entire day to feel like a photoshoot.

I don't just show up with a camera. I help you figure things out. From choosing the right San Diego or Joshua Tree location to planning around the best light and creating a timeline that doesn't feel rushed, I'm there to help. After photographing nearly 500 couples, I've learned that the best photos happen when people feel comfortable. I'll guide you when you need it, then step back and let the real moments happen. Your photos should feel like you actually lived the day — not like you spent it posing for a camera.

    Family photography

    From start to finish, Replica Photography made our wedding day so much easier. They showed up on time and gave us clear directions about poses and positioning, which really helped everything run smoothly. The quality of their work is outstanding—every photo captures the emotion and details we wanted to remember. Their communication before the wedding was excellent, so we always knew what to expect. We felt confident having them behind the camera, and the final photos exceeded what we hoped for. We'd recommend Replica Photography to any couple looking for a photographer who is reliable and truly talented.

    Loved working with MJ!

    We chose Replica Photography for our wedding and couldn't have been happier with that decision. From our first conversation, MJ was incredibly responsive and professional, making the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. On our wedding day, she helped us with posing while keeping the atmosphere light and fun—we found ourselves laughing throughout the shoot, which made everything feel natural. The photos turned out stunning, and we were blown away by how quickly she delivered the final images. Beyond being a fantastic photographer, she's also a genuinely wonderful person who made us feel comfortable and cared for. We're thrilled with the results and would absolutely recommend Replica Photography to any couple looking for someone who combines creativity, professionalism, and heart. I have hired MJ for numerous events after she did our intimate wedding because we loved her work so much.

    Amazing Photos amazing experience

    I’ve had the pleasure of working with Mirjana and Replica Photography, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. She has such an incredible ability to make you feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, even if posing doesn’t come naturally to you. She guides you through everything while still making the photos feel natural, effortless, and completely like you. She also has an amazing eye for locations and scenery. She knows exactly how to choose the right setting, find the best light, and use the surroundings to create absolutely beautiful photos. Every session we’ve done with her has felt relaxed and fun, and somehow she always manages to capture those little candid moments in between the posed ones that end up being some of my favorites. Beyond being incredibly talented, Mirjana is warm, patient, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in the people she photographs. I can confidently say that I would trust her with any important milestone or special occasion. She has a way of capturing not just how a moment looked, but how it felt. Anyone choosing her to photograph their elopement or intimate wedding will be in wonderful hands. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!

    We had an amazing experience with our photographer for our surprise proposal! They were professional, friendly, and did an incredible job capturing the moment without giving anything away. The photos turned out beautiful, and we’ll always have these memories to look back on. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone to capture a special moment!

Absolutely. You don't have to come to me with a location already picked out. San Diego has so many completely different places to get married — coastal cliffs, beaches, parks, mountains, and quieter spots that don't feel like a typical wedding venue. I can help you narrow it down based on the feeling you want, how private or accessible you want it to be, the light, and how you want the day to flow.
Yes — and I actually really enjoy this part. Where you go and when you go can completely change the experience and the photographs. I'll help you think through timing, light, locations, travel time, and the moments you want documented so the day doesn't feel rushed. You don't need to have everything figured out before you reach out.
Yes. I'm currently expanding my elopement work into Joshua Tree and other beautiful locations throughout California. I love the slower, more adventurous feeling of a desert elopement, and I'm especially interested in couples who want the landscape to be part of their day rather than simply a backdrop. If Joshua Tree is somewhere you've been dreaming about, I'd love to help you plan it.
It depends on the package you choose, but your full gallery will be delivered within up to one week. I also offer the option of receiving a small preview gallery within 24 hours, so you don't have to wait long to relive the day and share a few favorites.
Honestly, I don't want your elopement to feel like a photoshoot. I know being in front of a camera can feel awkward, especially at first. My job is to make that part easier — not to make you perform. I'll tell you where to stand when you need direction, fix your dress if it's doing something weird, remind you to slow down, and probably make you laugh at some point. Then I'll get out of the way and let you be together. I want you to remember how the day felt, not how many times I told you to pose.
