I got my first camera in the 4th grade. It was a Kodak Ektralite 110 film camera that I loved. Years later and many generations of camera upgrades, I still love taking photos and treat every photo shoot with the same excitement and care that I had starting out. Today, I shoot on a Canon 5D for most jobs, but love taking photos with a Yashica MAT medium format camera that my dad (barely) used in the early 1970’s. 

After graduating from USC film school, I worked in several areas of the entertainment industry. With experience both in front and behind the camera, I am able to tailor each client’s session so that we capture their individuality. Each shoot uses natural lighting, specific direction, and most importantly a fun environment. 

Have a question? I'd love to hear from you! For more information or to schedule an appointment, please call (310) 365-1804 or email info@robmainordphotography.com.

I'll never go anywhere else! You make people feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera, Rob!

Rob's photos POP! He has a great eye and makes the actor feel comfortable during the shoot.  I've personally shot with him and refer many of my clients to him. 

-Buckley Sampson, actress/image consultant

I always dread taking new headshots but Rob makes it so easy and fun!  He's got a great eye and knows exactly what I need for my type. I've shot with him several times and my agent is always thrilled with the outcome.

-Darcy Shean, actress

OMG!  I could not be happier with the results!  I’m blown away! I’m so grateful and so happy! They capture my essence in a way that says who I am.  I don’t think I could describe myself as well as the photo does it fr me.
