Located in Bakersfield, California, Hall Photography specializes in capturing life’s milestone moments—whether it’s a child’s first school photo, a high school senior session, or those magical holiday portraits with Santa. We're honored to preserve the memories that matter most to you and your family.
Many of our outdoor sessions take place in our private garden studio, complete with towering trees, lush greenery, a koi pond, and a peaceful waterfall feature. While natural backdrops are a favorite, we also offer a variety of styled indoor and outdoor settings to match any look or personality.

Hi, I’m Jori, and I’ve proudly owned this studio for nearly six years but my love for photography started long before I ever stepped foot behind a professional camera. As a kid, I was the one pulling out old photo albums—flipping through my parents’ wedding photos, childhood candids, and every grainy memory in between. I remember thinking how priceless those moments were, frozen in time. In high school, I began taking senior portraits for friends, classically capturing them in wheat fields or almond orchards around Kern County—right alongside my growing obsession with landscapes and nature photography. That passion eventually led me to Brooks Institute, where I graduated in December 2015. Just a few months later, in June 2016, I joined the team here at the studio—and quickly realized how much I loved working with students and families. In July of 2019, I took over as owner and have spent the last six years shaping the space into my own. Whether you're coming in for school portraits, senior photos, or something totally unique—we can’t wait to meet you and tell your story.
