WE'RE EJ § SARAH! Husband and wife team. When you look back on your celebration, you don’t want to see bits and pieces of the story. You want to see, remember, and feel it all.

We recently had the absolute pleasure of working with Cassidy at Mindful Wedding Photography for our engagement photoshoot in the breathtaking location of Ouray, Colorado. From start to finish, our experience with Cassidy was nothing short of outstanding, and we can't recommend her enough! First and foremost, the location and landscape of Ouray were absolutely stunning. The majestic mountains, serene lakes, and charming trails provided the perfect backdrop for our engagement photos. Cassidy's keen eye for capturing the beauty of the surroundings truly showcased the essence of Ouray and made our pictures look like something out of a fairytale. The natural beauty of the location combined with Cassidy's artistic vision resulted in truly magical photographs that we will cherish forever. Throughout the entire process, Cassidy's communication and professionalism were top-notch. From the moment we reached out to her, she was prompt and attentive, answering all our questions and addressing any concerns we had. She took the time to understand our vision and personal style, ensuring that our personalities and the love we share as a couple were reflected in every shot. Her warm and friendly demeanor made us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the shoot, allowing us to relax and genuinely enjoy the experience. One aspect that truly impressed us was Cassidy's dedication to researching and scouting locations beforehand. She went above and beyond to find hidden gems and picturesque spots in Ouray that we never would have discovered on our own. This attention to detail and meticulous planning added an extra layer of uniqueness and authenticity to our photos, as we were able to capture the true essence of the area while highlighting our love for each other and our adorable dog Samuel. If you are looking for a photographer who not only captures beautiful images but also provides an exceptional experience, Cassidy at Mindful Wedding Photography is the perfect choice. Her talent, professionalism, and dedication to her craft are evident in every aspect of her work.

Traveling has taught me the importance of capturing all the important - big and small - moments to look back on years later. I love capturing those truly candid moments. The kind of photos that put you right back in the moment five, ten, fifty years later. I'm a Southern California-based photographer that will travel wherever you want to document your love! I'm constantly exploring in my hiking boots with laid-back couples that want to capture genuine moments about their relationship. When I'm not taking pictures, you can usually find me hanging out with my people, hiking, watching sitcoms, or taking a spontaneous trip.

Emily was open! We were on a time crunch for getting our engagement pictures in before my husbands deployment. I reached out to a Emily and she was super quick to respond and was able to fit us in just a few days later! She sent us a few guides on what to wear and how to feel the most comfortable on the day of our shoot. She was fun to work with and we would definitely recommend to all our friends and family! She got all our photos to us super fast and even sent some sneak peeks which was awesome!

Mission Viejo, CA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Downey, CA

I have always loved story-telling. I loved writing stories as a kid (I even tried to get a book published at age 12) and I love writing my own D&D campaigns now. Through storytelling, I see the paths laid ahead for our heroes, and beautiful adventures that need to be documented. Through storytelling, I started to see the pictures. And from these pictures, I began to photograph. I am crazy passionate about your day. I want to help you capture those moments. I want you to have the most amazing time, and the happiest memories. I want you to have photos so good that you can’t wait to show it off to the people you know, and even those you don’t.

I don't know how else to say this, but my husband and I are THE most awkward people when it comes to photos. We forget how to smile, we never know where to look, and we don't know what to do with our hands... or faces. We had a different photographer for our engagement photos and I didn't like the way 99% of them came out. We looked uncomfortable and awkward. I emailed Cassy about how uncomfortable we are in front of a camera and she called me to reassure me that she would be able to give us direction and make sure all the photos turned out great. We had a tiny micro wedding on the beach during covid with just our immediate family. I hired a picnic company to set up a tiny ceremony and hors d'oeuvres. Cassy captured all the details of the set up beautifully. My in-laws wanted a coffee table book of our wedding photos, and it was so hard to pick just a few. We got so many incredible photos! Our couples shots look like something in a magazine. She made it so fun, we never felt weird or uncomfortable. Cassy had these little tips and tricks and she'd get genuine laughter and smiles out of us. There were no forced smiles or awkward faces. When I look at my photos, it brings back all the memories of laughter and joy on our special day. I'm so grateful we found her! All our photos are light, airy, and perfect. Thank you so much, Cassy!

Hi!! I'm Maria, photographer, mom, wife, and nacho lover. Not listed in any particular order lol Once I had my first born, I realized going back to work at CBS was not what I wanted with 12 hour workdays. I took photography classes and decided to build my own business myself. I have been photographing weddings for the last 6 years and enjoy celebrating this amazing day with all my clients. Cheesy as it may sound, I'm an absolute romantic and I relish in witnessing the love, words said, and the joy found at every wedding.

Marisa and Tim are the sweetest people you can imagine. Back in 2019 we began planning our wedding, so you can imagine that it took awhile for it to happen. They rolled with changes from 2020, to 2021, to 2022 and then after my wife and I got COVID the day before our wedding, to later in 2022! They were supportive and accommodating through what was one of the most tumultuous periods in our lives. They made us comfortable, they helped us get ready on the day of the wedding, they are infinitely giving and we will always be thankful for everything they did for us. Now, onto the photos! They're perfect! They're colorful and playful and everything we were looking for. We didn't just want conventional wedding photos, though we did get a number of classic ones that look great and made our parents very happy, we wanted something that felt like us. They also documented everything, from my custom pocket square to my wife's earrings to the invites, to the menus. Over two months later we're still going through the photos and getting enjoyment from them. We are so lucky to have worked with Marisa and Tim. They were a huge part of the best day of our lives and we're so grateful for them.

We were so worried about finding the "perfect" photographer for our big day, but Kristen Thomison was an answer to prayer! She is a precious person who goes above and beyond to make sure the client has exactly what they want and envision. Before booking with her, she made me a Pinterest board of what her vision was for our big day based on our venue parameters and our personal wishes. This extra detail that she chose to provide helped me to feel settled in my decision, trusting we had the same vision! Furthermore, she gets to know her clients on a personal level so she can write our story pictorially. She is incredible and gives her heart and soul to what she does!

Julie exceeded our expectations. We felt like we had the best photographer in Montana, and honestly we did. Julie was kind, patient, extremely professional, and worked hard to make sure every special moment was captured. She had amazing communication from the start, including video calls to understand our desires, regular email communication, and set up a written plan of exactly who and what we wanted photographed. I was most impressed when we took the family portraits. In the moment, it’s such a chaotic scene with so many different getting distracted and wandering around, yet she was efficient and was able to get everyone’s photographs complete within a short amount of time. She self-directs and kept herself on schedule, so all I had to do was be a bride and enjoy my day knowing I had full confidence in her. When we received our photos, I was in awe of how beautiful they are. We are so lucky to have had Julie and I 100% recommend her to any bride.

Steve at Birchfields totally knocked it out of the park for us. We were on the fence about hiring a videographer, but realized we really wanted the ceremony and speeches captured professionally. We are so glad we found Birchfields. Steve was incredibly helpful from the start - answering all of our questions, giving us ideas, and helping us to come up with the right package to buy. He gave us time to think things through, and we never felt pressured or rushed. On the day of the wedding, he was so easy and fun to work with. He sent us a small film trailer of the wedding the day after, which was so awesome to have right away! We recently got back our full edited films, and they are better than we could have hoped - super well edited, amazing crisp quality, and they really honor the mood and feeling of the whole night. We are so happy to have worked with Steve, and would absolutely recommend him!

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.

Russ was an absolute dream to work with. Fun, friendly, great at sorting all the details beforehand and an absolute star on the day. The photos were stunning – we'd initially questioned whether we would even bother with a photographer, but after working with Russ, I can tell you, it is 200% worth it. Me and my husband have never looked so good in a photo in our lives (and likely never will again...). Russ perfectly balanced being a fly on the wall when it mattered (during the ceremony, etc), with giving us some much needed guidance for fun group shots and portraits. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Book him now!!

I'm a Bay Area native with over 12 years in the commercial photography realm. I got my start on the beaches of Los Angeles back in 2012 shooting commercial swimwear campaigns for some of the best designers in swim and fashion. That opened the door to countless opportunities with modeling agencies, reality television, and fashion design. In 2018 I made the move back up north to San Francisco where I grew up. With a wide network of friends and family up here, I found myself catapulted into the Wedding and Elopement industry - and absolutely loved it! I'm honored when I get to be a part of one of the best days of a couple's life together.

She is extremely professional, talented, compassionate, creative, and can make absolutely every one of her clients feel understood and comfortable. She flew out to Washington to take our engagement photos at the Olympic National Park and the entire day was one of my favorite memories. Not to mention she sent me sneak peeks of the photos within a couple of hours - incredible editing skills and extremely fast service. I'm going to cherish these photos forever and we are SO excited to have her as our wedding photographer in June. Thank you for everything, Sarah!

I spent a long time researching wedding photographers when I started wedding planning because I knew great photos would be very important to me. Glass Woods photos really stood out to me, and they were the first wedding vendor I booked. I am SO glad I did. Covid hit and we ended up postponing our wedding several times. Jake and Tasha were extremely flexible and accommodating throughout the process, and ended up traveling an hour to shoot my backyard wedding, which was not what they had originally agreed to. Unlike other vendors I dealt with, they never gave me a hard time or caused me any stress. On the day of the wedding, Jake was AMAZING. He was so chill and fun, and made us feel extremely comfortable on camera. He shot the wedding by himself, but didn’t miss any important moment. We just got our photos back and couldn’t be happier. They are all stunning. He did an amazing job of capturing all of the emotions in perfectly framed shots. I believe Tasha does the editing and it was also phenomenal. The colors are spectacular. I’ve already printed and framed some and they bring me so much joy to look at. So very grateful to Jake and Tasha and will definitely use them for photos in the future.

Jason is incredible. He is a talented photographer and storyteller, and a great business person to boot! He is exactly who you want your friends and family to interact with your wedding day. I would highly recommend him to any person looking to capture the essence of their wedding day and of their beloved family and friends. Regarding the business perspective: my partner and I planned our wedding from afar and from the start Jason was responsive and easy to work with. I admire that he didn’t pressure us on hurrying to book the way other photographers did and he made the time to connect with us. He was also able to process photos quickly and with high quality. Regarding the photos: we purchased his engagement and wedding day package and I could not be happier and think he was priced very competitively. My partner and I had previously had engagement photos done with another vendor and their quality was not even comparable to Jason’s. Because of Jason’s photo journalistic nature and our desire to avoid a lot of staged poses Jason built a beautiful story of us and our engagement and wedding day. His photos are striking, surprising, and beautiful. He captured heartfelt moments that I did not see during our wedding, too. Our friends and family are in love with the photos that we have shared with them and we are so honored to have had Jason capture our wedding day. I cannot wait to look at these photos for years to come and relive our wedding day!

I used Mindy to capture two events, a proposal and and a surprise engagement party. For the proposal, Mindy spend a lot of time with me thinking through the right proposal spot at the location I was looking at to make sure that it worked for the photos, she even got there early to make sure that it worked. She was so well hidden to capture the proposal that for a moment I wasn't sure she was there, but she was and captured it and spent time with us after to take photos. We just got the sneak peak of the photos and they look fantastic. For the surprise party Mindy got there early and started to capture moments even before my fiancee and I arrived, she was really flexible on what worked best for the event so we can't wait to see the final photos!

Alana and I connected over Instagram shortly after Nick and I got engaged. Over the course of a year, I fell more in love with her shot style, her colors, and just about everything she posted. She and I messaged, liked, and commented so it was nice having as much of a connection as people can have through Instagram before booking. When we decided to book she helped so much with ideas for outfits, time of day, and locations to shoot as well!! When we scheduled our engagement shoot, it worked perfectly to where she could come to our location while she was in Cinci. Day of the shoot, anything that could have gone wrong, went wrong BUT Alana handled everything with such flexibility and ease. We were able to get shots before and after the torrential downpour that forced us to change locations and WE ARE IN LOVE with the photos. I seriously can’t say enough amazing things about her. She makes us even more excited for our wedding just through looking at our engagement photos and the photos she shares on her blog/website/Instagram. Long story short: book her.

I knew I wanted to work with Kellie after she did my friends wedding video a few years back. We had a tight budget and she worked with us to create a highlight video for our ceremony so that we could have a video of the most important part of our day. She is very professional and came up with unique shot ideas (detail shots, dancing, active poses, etc.). The video turned out beautifully and feels unique to us and our special day. I am forever grateful for the experience I had with Kellie and the video she created for us. She is so driven and talented! Highly recommend and if you are debating getting a video or not (as I know it’s not in everyone’s budget) I would advise you to just go for it as I can’t imagine not having the video. I would have regretted it so much! Just do it…and go with Kellie too, she’s the best!

Oh my gosh, we have no words. Stacie McChesney (Vitae Weddings) was the perfect photographer for our special day and we were overjoyed with our experience. Do yourselves a favor and book her immediately. From the moment Stacie stepped in the room, she put both of us at ease. Her energy immediately put us in a relaxed mindset, and that allowed us to just be together, have fun, and be present with each other and our loved ones. She had a clear plan of what/where to shoot but also reacted whenever inspiration unexpectedly struck. Stacie were equal parts guide, cheerleader, and secret agent. We're so grateful to have had our dedicated time for portraits with her. She even snuck us away at one point to get golden hour sunset pictures! The extra care she took with us was outstanding. During the reception, she was unobtrusive while capturing amazing moments. Not only was she amazing to us, but also our guests. An unexpected surprise was she gave us a fully edited sneak peek within two days of the event! The small sample alone is incredible. Her style is unlike any other wedding photographs we've seen--it's like they could be in a magazine editorial! We cannot wait to see the rest of the images she captured. Stacie was fantastic to work with leading up to, during, and after the big event. We're thrilled that she was our photographer.

Film brought art back to photography — having control over the film stock, using particular cameras for different reasons, doing double exposures with film blindly, souping film and customizing the development process to the wedding, and so much more. And through film, I embrace the imperfections of weddings — following along with your flow of the day and natural interactions of your friends and family. Capturing your wedding story as it happens is always the priority and focus.

We were going to go with an off island photographer when we came across Eli and their work. Their knowledge of the island, how the wind blows differently on different sides of our venue, how the light hits perfectly on this side of the venue and we can still get an ocean view — that they care about the power lines and know how to avoid cars in the back of ceremony images. The list just went on and on and on. Working with Eli was like working with a walking encyclopedia of Block Island. And when you're getting married on the island, it's such an asset. Eli helped walk us through other on island vendors, best spots for our engagement sessions, different hotels that might suite certain guests better than others, an amazing casual rehearsal dinner/welcome party idea that was flawless, and I just couldn't be happier. When we got the images though, I didn't know what to say. Eli had captured so much of our story, we felt the same jitters getting ready to walk down the aisle looking through images of moments we didn't. get to experience on our wedding day (we were a little busy, getting married, and you just can't witness everything). Eli was so great with our friends and family, able to choral a few of my drunk groomsmen, while simultaneously making my antsy family members just super at ease and happy. I couldn't be happier in working with Eli and can't wait to see them in future years when we visit.

We believe your wedding photos should be a true reflection of your special day - capturing all the laughter, tears, love and joy in a way that takes you back to that exact moment. Making you relive the excitement, nervousness, happiness and warm fuzzy feelings of your wedding day.

Black Hat Studio captured the emotions at our wedding phenomenally! We had a simple wedding in Riviera Maya with a last minute venue change because of a storm and the team calmly rolled with the punches and made the most of the changes. We were worried all the changes would reflect poorly in our photos and videos, but they turned out wonderfully and we've not tire of flipping through them! A wonderful group that we would book again in a heartbeat!

I was a bit nervous hiring from a company instead of an individual photographer/videographer, but their prices were amazing and I am so thrilled with the people they sent over. They were so flexible with my crazy ideas and willing to go wherever I sent them. I had a maypole at my wedding that I was unable to participate in but I sent the videographer over to capture it while I did pictures. I also decided I wanted to climb onto a tree that was hanging over a creek all in my wedding dress to get one particular shot, and while others doubted me the photographer saw my vision and made it happen, and I’m so glad he did! If there is one thing I love it is proving people wrong and I know that picture is going to be the most iconic image of the wedding.

Our approach is as unique as your love story. With a blend of editorial flair, photojournalistic authenticity, and fine art finesse, we capture the essence of your wedding day vision. We don't just capture moments, we craft narratives.

I cannot say enough good things about Jennifer and her husband. They are absolute gems in the photography world. They were so kind, so easy to work with, and meshed so well with our family on wedding day. We were told we would get our photos back in approximately 4 weeks and she was right on time. We got a sneak peak the night after our wedding !!! Our video turned out absolutely beautiful!! Seriously cannot give them enough stars. We plan to use them again as soon as we can !!

My pursuit of impeccable details pushes me to continually evolve my vision while reminding me of the importance of carrying my camera with humor, compassion, and curiosity.

I am completely and totally FLOORED by our photos. Mari is amazing. I don't think I have the words to explain how amazing she is. From the first message to the delivery of the product she was professional and friendly. She promptly responded to emails and texts and had an eye that is... Just wow. Mahalo Mari, may your photography pave the way to wealth for you!

A journalistic approach & editorial aesthetic for your bespoke wedding celebration.

So whether you are having a lavish weekend soiree on the Almafi Coast or an intimate backyard gathering at your childhood home, today is enjoying this sweet moment together.

Working with Masha was the absolute best. She really takes the time to get to know you, which makes it so much more meaningful and comfortable to work with her. Being in front of the camera during our engagement and wedding shoot was so fun because she gets you comfortable if you’ve never done it before, and although she helps out with the poses, she knows just what to do to get the perfect, natural candids. During our getting ready on our wedding day, she really went to work getting the littlest details that you never thought you’d needed. And got all the shots we wanted during our wedding ceremony. Her quality and professionalism is unmatched. I would definitely recommend her 100%.

Hello, I am a Northern California and destination wedding photographer that could not possibly love her job anymore! Photography has been a passion of mine since a very young age, my mom was a portrait photographer and after being in front of her camera for too many years I decided to see what the fuss was about and get behind the lens. I launched this business less than a week after graduating from UC Berkeley in 2016. ​

Claire was our incredible wedding photographer and we are beyond happy that we chose her! She’s the kindest person ever and made us all feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera!

We are Hayes and Bree, your San Diego wedding photo and video duo! In 2020, we met online, but were stunned that both of us had been capturing weddings through photography and videography separately for years! After getting married, we combined our businesses to create one where we not only get to continue doing what we love, but get to do it together. Whether it's a local wedding in San Diego or traveling to gorgeous spots like the European countryside, we would love for you to come along for the journey!

Bree and Hayes recently shot our engagement party and did an incredible job capturing our moment. They were extremely organized and made us feel at ease with a pre-event meeting where we went over all of the details. Their images were bright, natural, and the perfect mix of candid and posed. I would highly recommend them for any wedding or event that you're having, you will cherish the photos for a lifetime!

Hi! I'm Ria, but my friends call me Ri. I'm a Southern California based photographer traveling worldwide for weddings, elopements & love. There's nothing that makes me happier than making other people feel fucking GREAT about themselves. I care about eternalizing your story, no matter your race, gender, sexuality or body type — i’m here for you.

If I could give this girl more stars I would. Her work is incredible and I had high expectations for my wedding (because she killed it for my engagement photo shoot) - and man did she blow it out of the water. I felt like I was reliving my dream day when I looked through my gallery - and cried so many times I had to call my mom. Her photos are best in class, and she's the most fun, down to earth person to work with. She made me feel so comfortable the entire day - even though it was 100 degrees outside. I can't recommend her enough, she's a rockstar photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
I initially had first hand experience with Jamaal's work while being in a good friend's wedding last year. A this wedding Jamaal was great. He paid attention to detail, was prompt and on time, didn't need to be told to capture certain moments, etc. When it came time for my big day, I knew I had the perfect person in mind. My wife and I decided to go the conservative route and have a small wedding w/ reception dinner at a restaurant. However, based on our wedding photo sneak peaks that Jamaal provided after; you would think it was a bigger wedding that what it actually was! Which is exactly what we wanted. He captured every moment perfect. My wife and I are happy to have worked with J. and hope to use him in the future for whatever occasion we have coming up next! Thank you again J!

We are Nadia & Gunnar. We love being outside. We met during our early years in college on our school swim team and had a few photography classes together. It was through our mutual love of photography that we started dating.  Fast forward 9 years we are now married!!!   We are both passionate with two diverse backgrounds: Nadia in fine art and Gunnar in journalism/documentary film making. When it comes to shooting we feel we are blessed to be able to pursue what we love together. We are all about what’s real; capturing life’s small (and large!) moments.

My husband and I absolutely loved working with Nadia and Gunnar! We met with them ahead of time at a local brewery and quickly learned that they would be a great fit. Their photography style is bold and beautiful, and the couple is very professional and easy to work with. It was so hard to narrow down our selection because there were soo many great shots! I can’t wait to work with them again some day! Highly recommend!
