Saeid Kaveh

Hi, I'm Saeid Kaveh, an award-winning portrait and editorial photographer based in Los Angeles, California. I specialize in creating distinctive portraits with a cinematic approach, combining creative lighting, thoughtful composition, and visual storytelling to produce timeless, impactful images.


Over the years, I've had the privilege of photographing celebrities, entrepreneurs, CEOs, coaches, artists, and public figures, along with countless clients who wanted portraits that truly represent who they are. My work has been featured in publications including The Hollywood Reporter, Deadline, Variety, and many others.


I'm fortunate to work alongside an exceptional team of talented makeup artists and stylists who help bring each creative vision to life. Together, we focus on every detail from the initial concept and mood board to the final image to create an enjoyable, stress-free experience and portraits you'll be proud of for years to come. Every session is tailored specifically to you: your story, your audience, and the impression you want to leave on the world.


Photography, for me, has always been about connection and that doesn't stop when the session ends. I share behind-the-scenes moments, new work, and creative inspiration regularly on Instagram and LinkedIn. If you'd like a closer look at my process and the stories behind the images, I'd love for you to follow along.


I look forward to creating something extraordinary with you.

Photography

is my passion



Photography is my gift. It allows me to connect, uplift, and create meaningful art with others. I find my deepest joy through photography and with each shoot I hope to share that passion with others.
