Send a quick request with your school and grad year. We'll lock a date and plan a vibe — golden-hour outdoors or a clean indoor look.

Merchan Films is an Orange County studio led by Michael Merchan — cinematographer, photographer, and former track athlete. The same discipline that came from competing shows up in every session: intentional, patient, and built to make you look like the best version of yourself. Not generic stock — work you'll be proud to put your name on.
Anywhere that feels like you — your campus, a favorite Orange County spot, or a clean indoor setup. We'll pick the location together when you book.
Bring your cap, gown, and sash, plus one outfit that's unmistakably you. Two looks fit comfortably in a session.
10–20 fully edited, hand-selected images — high-resolution and yours to keep, print, and share.
Your private online gallery is ready within 1–2 weeks of the session.
Send a request with your school and grad year. Grad-season dates fill fast, so the earlier the better.
Tell me a little about your session — your school, grad year, and the vibe you're after — and I'll get back to you with available dates.
