Hello we are Wira & Joy


Love..

It grows within you along with beauty, for it is the beauty of the soul. As we see others as God sees them, only then we can truly
love. And that is beautiful.


We are a husband & wife team, Jesus

lovers, who are simply blessed to be doing what we love doing since 2008. We have three beautiful kids, we love everything outdoorsy like camping, hiking or just being in an adventure together.

You might find us in your local Ramen spots or Pho restaurants. Um yeah

we like noodles 😆


We’re pretty laid back – behind the scenes – type of people, but you will quickly notice how passionate we are in what we do, once you engage with us during our sessions!


We are based out of Southern California, but we are available to travel nationwide.

Amazing Photographers!

"We were so happy we booked Maxwell Studios for our wedding. We had spent so long trying to find a quality photographer in our price range, and the second we stumbled on Maxwell Studios' website, we knew they were the right choice. Wira and Joy were so kind, calm, and flexible. My husband and I were planning our Southern California wedding from Chicago, so we could not meet them in person until the wedding day. However, they made time to facetime with us before the big day. On our wedding day they arrived on time (even though they had to drive all the way up to the mountains in the pouring rain), and rolled with the punches as we tried to make our outdoor wedding work on a rainy day. During the ceremony and reception they were so stealthy, snapping away photos without interrupting the flow of the day. I would 100% recommend Maxwell Studios to anyone who asked. we are so stoked to see the photos!"

Exceptional photographers!

"Wira & Joy shot our engagement photos and wedding photos and we could not be anymore happy with the professionalism and quality. Their entire team worked seamlessly the entire day and even stayed extra time without any hesitations. The photos were delivered in a few weeks; all processed beautifully. If you are looking for a fair, professional, kind, and caring photographers please hire them! My sister, and cousin used them for their weddings as well and they'll be shooting my other cousins wedding this winter!"

Beautiful, Unique and Creative Photos with the BEST Team!

Wira and Joy of Maxwell Studios were an absolute dream to work with! They captured our day so beautifully, but more importantly, they captured us a couple perfectly. Our pictures are so custom to who WE are as a couple and to the overall vibe and style of our wedding, which is hard to find in photographers. Their creative eye and unique style sets them a part from the rest and makes them a top notch team! Wira also took our engagement photos and i was blown away that he was able to capture our chemistry after only meeting us one time. I could not have asked for a better or more positive experience! Working with Maxwell Studios is a 12/10 experience for beautiful photos that stand out from the rest. These are photos we will cherish forever, and I am beyond thankful! Wira and Joy are warm and loving people who truly care about their clients, which is so refreshing and hard find. You will not only love the finished product, you will also love the artists who capture your big moment! Thank you Wira and Joy!"
