About Cherished Memories Photography
Cherished Memories Photography operates out of a Mission Trail studio location in Lake Elsinore, handling the full range of portrait work — families, newborns, children, seniors, and occasional event coverage. The studio setting allows controlled lighting and backdrop options for clients who prefer a dedicated space over on-location shoots, though outdoor sessions are part of the mix depending on the package. The business suits families documenting milestones (new babies, school portraits, holiday cards), individuals needing professional headshots, and groups wanting a straightforward portrait session without the Wine Country aesthetic that dominates Temecula's wedding market. Lake Elsinore clients appreciate the local convenience; those from surrounding areas find the Mission Trail location accessible without the drive into central Temecula. For couples planning destination weddings or elaborate engagement sessions tied to scenic backdrops, the larger photography studios with Wine Country portfolios are the expected choice. For routine family portraits and life-stage documentation, Cherished Memories fits the practical, neighborhood-level role.

Courtney McManaway Photography
Courtney McManaway Photography operates from Lake Elsinore, working primarily with families, newborns, and portrait clients in a mix of studio and on-location shoots. The work spans the range most portrait studios handle — maternity sessions, newborn detail work, children's portraits, family groups — rather than specializing heavily in weddings or events. Location shoots pull from the broader inland-valley landscape rather than relying on Wine Country or Old Town Temecula backdrops that saturate the wedding-photography market. The format suits families building a portrait portfolio over time, parents documenting newborn weeks before the rapid changes blur together, and clients who prefer a quieter, less-trendy approach to family documentation. For couples looking at the full wedding day with multiple-location coverage and a photojournalistic style, the larger Temecula wedding studios with established wine-venue relationships are the closer fit. For portrait work on a more intimate scale — a single session, a few outfit changes, a focus on connection over editorial sweep — this is the realistic local option.
Drew Ramsey Photography
Drew Ramsey Photography operates from a Lake Elsinore studio, working primarily in portrait and family sessions rather than the wedding-heavy model that dominates Temecula's photography market. The shooting style leans toward lifestyle and documentary framing — capturing people as they naturally interact — rather than formal posed portraiture. Most work happens on location, using Lake Elsinore's waterfront and the surrounding foothills as backdrops, which offers a different visual palette than the wine-country estates and Old Town brick common to regional wedding portfolios. Families with young children, professionals needing updated headshots, and small events make up the steady client base. For couples planning a Temecula wine-country wedding with the aesthetic that region demands, the established wedding specialists there are the expected choice. For families living in or near Lake Elsinore who want portraits that reflect their actual neighborhood and lifestyle rather than a polished studio set, or for business owners needing approachable, natural-looking headshots, Drew Ramsey's location and documentary approach fit the practical need without the elaborate production overhead.
