Carlsbad, CA
  • Photojournalistic style

I’ve been happily married for almost 27 years. I have three awesome sons. My parakeets Kiwi and Sparky are very social, meaning very loud! Champagne (maybe that’s why I love weddings) and sushi lover here! Photography has been my passion ever since my dad gave me my first film camera and introduced me to the dark room at age of 10. I lived in Japan for 12 years, and even performed on a stage there. I’m always up for a great road trip! I love tuna fishing. I love hats and want to wear them everyday (over 20 hats in my collection). I’ve been shooting beautiful weddings for almost 10 years. I secretly cry at every wedding.

When it came to our Halloween wedding, the road was filled with unexpected hiccups and stress. However, we were incredibly fortunate to have found Irina, our remarkable wedding photographer. From the very beginning, Irina's presence and talent helped us navigate the challenges and find moments of joy amidst the chaos. Her warm and calming demeanor made us feel at ease, allowing us to relax and embrace the magic of our wedding day. Beyond her talent, Irina's genuine care and dedication were evident in every interaction. She went above and beyond to ensure that our experience was stress-free, guiding us through the process with kindness and reassurance. We wholeheartedly recommend Irina as a wedding photographer. Irina, we are forever grateful for your presence and the remarkable photographs that now serve as timeless reminders of our Halloween fairytale. Thank you for turning our hiccups into moments of magic and creating memories that will last a lifetime.

She is one of the kindest hearts to work with. She made it so easy for me and my fiancé to frolic around the beach in the cold and be so comfortable in front of the camera. She is very talented and I am in love with my photos. She was super quick for editing and sent me different colors (black& white or colored) and her editing is beautiful!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000

I'm Ash, a Wedding & Lifestyle Photographer based in SoCal. My work is best known for its light, vibrant and genuine style. Most know me for having a loud laugh, and big personality. When I am not behind a camera, I love to spend my time at the beach, camping with friends or reading a good book. Preferably, all of those things together!

I cannot say enough about Ashley! I talk her up to every single person I come across looking for photos. She took our engagement photos and our maternity photos, and not only were they so beautiful, but she made us feel like we are just hanging out (while she’s behind the camera)! On top of all of that, we were slated to have her photograph our wedding but due to COVID, it had to be moved. She made me feel so calm and gave me all the back up plans she could think of (all while planning her own wedding during COVID). In the end she recommended someone else who was also amazing for our new date, and then edited those photos for us. I can’t imagine working with anyone else in the future, and can’t wait for her to capture our growing family over the years. 5 stars to this very sweet, loving lady!

I was raised in the Sierra Nevada foothills of California. I was drawn to photography in middle school and would enter photos of our family pets or family backpacking trips in our local county fair. My passion for photography grew while working as a hiking guide in Yosemite National Park. I mean… who wouldn’t want a stunning photo of Half Dome? El Capitan? Yosemite Falls? I graduated from University of California Davis with a major in Graphic Design and a minor in Technology Management. In my free time I like to hike, travel, and watch Friends and The Office. You will most likely find me stuffing my face with either Indian or Thai food.

Hi I'm Halley I’m a couples, wedding, and elopement photographer based in San Diego, Big Sur, and Seattle, but I’m ready to follow you anywhere! I was born and raised in the PNW, I’m 28 years old, I have a husband and 2 puppies who I love with my whole heart. I’m an extroverted introvert who loves all-night brewery hangs just as much as home game nights, and my love languages are words of affirmation and sushi.

Halley Vernon has been one of favorite photographers to work with. From the beginning Halley was super informative and considerate to make sure I was well prepared for the wedding we were both going to be working. Super professional yet very intentional. When it came to the wedding day, Halley was on top of it. Making sure we stayed on schedule and capturing every detail they requested. Not only that but Halley really pushed my creativity to capture photos in different angles that I wouldn't have ever thought about. I highly recommend Halley for your big day!

Hiii! I'm Kayley and I'm so glad you're here. I’m energized by meeting new people, so please say hello! I’m a go with the flow kind of person – which explains my love for spontaneous trips and the excitement of weddings. I love to dance and have a good time (seriously, I WILL be out there on the dance floor with you).

Awarded Best of Zola
Kayley was recommended to me by a good friend who had worked with her for years. To say that I was impressed with her work would be an understatement - she blew me away. Not only did she fit within my budget needs, she came up with a plan that captured everything I wanted. My husband had a photographer there when he proposed, so we didn't do the traditional engagement and then wedding sessions. We ended up with an amazing motorcycle couples shoot, a boudoir shoot, and wedding coverage. Kayley was quick on her feet at our wedding - we had 300 guests spread out across a decent sized park with multiple buildings. She not only kept up, she also kept it together during an insane thunder storm at the end of the night! It was such a lovely and easy experience for my husband and I while we planned such a large wedding, we will definitely be coming back to her for future photography needs!

Have you ever met someone you just knew immediately was your person? We bet you have since you're here now! In 2015, Paul was the photographer at Crystal’s younger brother’s wedding, where she was a bridesmaid. We loved everything about that special day, but from the moment we locked eyes it was like time stood still. We knew then and there that we just hit the jackpot! Not only did we meet at a wedding, but we have both been in the events industry for well over a decade. Paul Douda Photography & Video offers full service wedding coverage for your big day in San Diego and beyond! We love to travel and destination weddings are a favorite!

If there was an option to award Paul Douda Photography 1000 stars, we would! We simply can't say enough great things about Paul and Crystal! From our engagement session to our wedding, everything they did was perfect! We aren't just talking about their products, either. They are fantastic at what they do and it's complimented by their wonderful and kind personalities; the complete package! If I had only one word to describe our experience with Paul Douda Photography, it would be easy. Planning? Easy! Vibe? Easy! Getting along? Easy! Day-of? Easy! Above all else, the perfect pictures, the heartwarming video, the overall experience, the best part is the friendship we developed with Paul and Crystal. From the bottom of our hearts, we couldn't be happier. A million and one thank yous!!

Vista, CA

  • Starts at $3,600

INQUIRE ON MY WEBSITE! I've been doing this for 8 years now, & it really does get better with time. There are countless memories of laughter, holding back tears (mostly happy ones), surprises, & moments that my heart didn't see coming. The opportunity to meet couples that become friends is something I will always feel blessed to have. I love building that connection as much as possible! You two together is your own little piece of art. At least that’s how I see it! So with that being said, I don’t want to try & copy someone else’s art. How you interact together should be captured purely.

I'm so grateful I found Emma and her team on Zola. In addition to my wedding, I also had her shoot a boudoir shoot and that was the first time I met her. Since that was totally out of my comfort zone, I was nervous but she immediately made me feel at ease and comfortable. The photos came out great and my husband loved the gift. For my actual wedding, Emma enlisted Solveig and second shooter Shiloh, who were also fantastic. Even though I barely knew them, they jumped right in and everything was so calm and organized. I even got my sneak peeks within a week and a half! I can't wait to see how they captured the rest of my big day. I would definitely refer Emma and her team to anyone looking!

I believe that every love story is the best story, and I am passionate about telling those stories through photography. My goal during every session is to create such a fun experience that my clients relax into each other and open up in their natural state. I see people as radiant, inside and out, especially when in their relaxed and happy states. My goal is always to deliver not just a service, but an experience that lets my couples see and feel how extraordinary they truly are.

Miranda was referred to us by good friends of ours. I saw their engagement shoot pictures and they were all amazing. Miranda has the ability to make even the most akward/camera shy (aka me) feel so comfortable and have it not translate in the photos. She has a great editing style, I didn't want to overly bright washed out look. Our pictures were rich with color, and just moody enough. After our engagement shoot and being very happy with the photos we booked Miranda for our wedding. Fast forward to March 2021 and our original venue extending their closure, we ended up re-planning our wedding in 3 weeks. Miranda was kind enough to create a special package to accommodate our short micro wedding. All of our pictures turned out amazing! Highly recommend Miranda for any photography needs.

My name is Adrian Burlaza, I was first introduced into photography in 2008 when I took an intro black & white photo course. I instantly fell in love with taking images with my camera and seeing them come to life by my own hands (literally, in the dark room). From that point I committed myself to this craft of image-making and scoured the internet, learning everything from nerdy equipment specs to creative techniques.

I can’t speak highly enough of our experience with Adrian! His photos are stunning and he is so incredibly nice. My husband and I both feel a little awkward in front of the camera and Adrian gave great instructions and put us at ease. He also captured so many small sweet moments, and really got the feel of our ceremony across. He got our photos back to us super fast too, overall a really amazing experience!

Hi, I'm Alexx! I grew up in San Diego and went to school in Malibu to study media production & math (I know, weird combo). Since then, I've lived in both Point Loma in SD and in West LA, so I'm always popping around all of SoCal! I absolutely adore weddings for the love, celebration, joy, and romance, so I want to make sure those are your main feelings throughout the day! What that means is I will always remain a calm presence in the chaos to help keep you grounded, but also blend into the background to give you space to just experience your day!

I don't even know where to begin. Alexx was hands down the best photographer we could have asked for. From the start she was supper communicative and within a day of inquiry, we had set up a time to chat and get acquainted. She is incredibly professional, but still super personable! We had so much fun with her at our engagement shoot, and the photos were INCREDIBLE. Her style is so organic and she makes you feel very comfortable from the start. She gave us so many tips leading up to the wedding about what to have ready for her and at what time, while still being super flexible with us if we needed to adapt. Day of with her was a breeze, too! She lead us through all of our photos and we wrapped up family photos quickly enough thanks to her that we were able to spend more time with our guests/family before the reception which was amazing! She had our previews to us within a few days and we are OBSESSED with every photo!! We cannot wait to see the full gallery :) Thank you so much for everything, Alexx!!!

I'm a restless wanderer with a new project always brewing in my head. It could be building a custom camper van, a new character to develop, or designing my dream off grid compound. Photography helps me to be completely in the moment, focused on what's happening in the here & now. It allows me to fully connect with the energy of the situation, & to capture that energy as I feel it. My images are meant to be timeless, to maintain their feeling as styles change and fads come & go. When in nature I find myself always in a state of awe, thinking of the ancient feet that have walked the same path & the wandering eyes that have seen the same sights.

A little back story. My fiance at the time had a bad falling out with a photography company. They were not willing to perform the services how we requested and so with almost 3 weeks until the wedding I was lost. My fiance at the time had a friend who had recently got married and reached out to him for the contact info. Insert A + M Badillo. They were AMAZING from the start! Wonderful communication and helped put my anxiety to ease with their work. Fast forward to the day of the wedding and they were spot on! Made me feel comfortable throughout the entire time and took some amazing shots! I could not be happier! Now that we have recieved our photos back, people are raving about them, asking when I will send them the link so they can make copies! When we got our thumbdrive, our expectations flew through the roof yet again! They went above and beyond with a personal box with our last name burned into it and some gifts along with the thumb drive. They do not do the minimum at all and work together as the perfect pair when capturing your big day! 1000% recommend them and will refer anyone and everyone who needs a photographer to them!

One of the most important parts of any special event (from weddings to fundraisers) is making sure you capture the spirit of the event. Mysi has photographed our annual Story Soirée multiple times and every time her photos have left me grinning from ear to ear. They are just so so so good! Not only are the action shots of our tellers (we are a storytelling nonprofit) wonderful, but the photos of folks reacting to our stories are my favorite. She is exceptionally skilled at capturing a range of emotions in a single photo and we have then used these photos in every marketing material imaginable. Mysi also photographed my wedding at City Hall! She got so many wonderful photos of our families crammed into the small courtroom and somehow made even the drab beige walls feel magical. It is also important for me to note that Mysi herself is an absolute dream to work with. She is communicative, punctual, and an utter delight. I sincerely cannot recommend her highly enough.

We decided to do a last minute baby moon in the Miami area. I wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to get a photoshoot. However, I was a bit worried about finding a photographer on short notice, especially between Christmas and New Years. I reached out to several photographers and Ledd Lens was the only company that promptly responded, replying to me within ten minutes, From the very start of our conversation, Andre was exceptionally professional, responsive, and approachable. He was very flexible with my last minute request and accommodating to my asks. I knew right away that he would be a fantastic choice. When the day came the weather did not cooperate and Andre was able to flex his schedule to a time that was not rainy, which was much appreciated. He assured me that this would be a positive experience regardless of the weather. And the photo shoot went fantastic! His ability to choreograph and capture a scene is unparalleled. You could feel the enthusiasm and passion he has for his work, and that is reflected in the final product. Andre did a great job of quickly editing and delivering the photos. We absolutely love how they turned out and cannot recommend Andre and Ledd Lens enough!

She was so flexible throughout the day, and really listened to us and what we wanted our day to look like.

Hi I’m Abby! been told all my life that I have an artistic flair and a gift for creativity, but that’s not the only reason why I started my career in wedding photography. I’m the biggest romantic and feel things deeply — in my photography there’s no detail in your connection that goes unnoticed. The little winks and smirks that silently set your soul on fire, the quirks that stay hidden to everybody else but you, and the parts of them that somehow make you fall in love with them even more… They’re how I tell stories because I know that in time, those are the things you’ll cherish the most.

Abby's style of photography is immediately recognizable; soothing tones with an eye that designs a photo straight out of a movie scene. I have been so fortunate to work with her and see her in action. Her presence is one of decisive and calming energy. I have been amazed again and again at how she innovates in the moment, creating something that was hum drum into a magical or enlightening method or way of doing something. I can't recommend her enough for your wedding day and all special moments 3

I set my mind and soul to this craft about 5 years ago and my heart just grew with every couple I met and every story I learned and told through my favorite medium of photography. It is the absolute best feeling being able to photograph the genuine love and happiness a couple expels through their wedding day. Nothing can beat the emotions and the charm of that. It's an honor to be able to translate those emotions onto images so people can look back through them and get back those feelings years and decades later.

Hi! So you’re getting married and you made it here :) First off, congratulations! Love found your heart, and this is all that matters. I’m Tiago and before being a vendor of your wedding, I want you to keep in mind that behind the camera there is a person, who is more interested in your life story, and in the history of your love to translate it into pictures. With that said, before we talk about photography, we can have a beer or a good wine and get to know each other better. If you are willing to do this and also have elegant, romantic and very natural images, it will be an honor to be part of your life by clicking on your special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn't imagine having a better photographer for our wedding than Russ. He's such a professional, took absolutely stunning photos for us, and got the photos back to us lightning fast. If he's available for your date, book him fast before he's taken! We had previously used Russ for our engagement photoshoot at SF MOMA and loved the way the photos came out. With the pandemic making a full wedding tricky, we chose to switch to a micro-wedding, with a few onsite guests and more on Zoom, down in southern California (Malibu) and Russ agreed to drive down from the Bay Area to shoot it for us. He arrived early and covid safe in an N95 mask. He's great at putting you at ease all day. We also love that he mostly uses a photojournalistic/candid style that documents everything but doesn't get in the way of your wedding with lots of distractions and staged photos. He takes colorful and sharp photos that really capture the moment and make you look great and feel like a moviestar.

Nothing makes me happier than people looking back at precious memories. I can't wait to extend this experience to you and create an everlasting memory that you can carry for years to follow.
