Water, People, Moments

I began my love for photography 10 years ago shooting in the ocean, my ultimate subject. I've found creative ways to combine my love for the ocean and portrait photography by creating surf inspired imagery and classic natural beach portraits. 

Through my years as a professional photographer, photographing couples, fellow ocean lovers, meeting new people and opening my horizons has always been the most fun, natural, and joyful part of my career.

East Coast  + Destination Weddings

From luxury weddings to sunrise beach elopements, Fiona loves its all. She has been behind the camera for over 10 years now, nailing down her journalistic and timeless style through genuine and candid moments. She photographed her first wedding at the age of 16 and has since worked with couples and individuals all over the world. Her roots and accomplishments in surf and water photography gives her an eye that is outside your everyday 'wedding photographer'. Fiona loves to approach weddings in her own unique way for couples looking for something truly authentic to them and their way of life.

How It All Started.

A native of the east coast, Fiona Mullen has a love for the blistery winters of the Northeast, the warmth of the south, and the tropics of Hawaii.  She sees life from a fresh perspective – from behind the lens and completely immersed in the ocean. Wintertime on the Northeast coastline is where her photographer eye was born. The blistery nor'easters and snowstorms never draw crowds to the beach, but for Fiona, the waves, light and composition are perfect. She peels on her five millimeter wetsuit, booties and gloves, walks across the snow covered sand dunes and swims out through the near freezing waves with her camera in hand.

For ten years, she has been photographing and publishing these scenes. She has accrued a number of international awards and is recognized across the the surf world for her eye and technical skills. These skills and her hunger to explore have lead her around the world; Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand, Samoa, Hawaii, California, British Columbia, the Caribbean, Iceland and beyond. She graduated in 2019 with a bachelor's degree in Public Relations and Journalism from Monmouth University.

"Fiona was so great throughout the whole process but especially on the day of my wedding! She was so calming and sweet. The photos came out so beyond beautiful."


"As a photographer myself, I am super picky when it comes to choosing a photographer. Once I saw Fiona's work, I knew she was the perfect photographer for us. She did an amazing job working with my family and making sure everyone was happy & comfortable. Every photo captures our true smiles, organic emotions, and Florida's beautiful scenery. I couldn't be happier with the photos, I highly recommend Fiona Mullen Photography!"
