Oleg and his team are THE MOST talented video/photo team I have every met and worked with. A lot of trust goes into finding someone that can capture your day for a lifetime of memories and we are BEYOND THRILLED to have chosen ZayaEvent. We met with Oleg for the first time and he was so detailed and excited about what he does. It made us excited to work with him! We sent inspo on what we wanted for our engagement shoot and shared what our vision was for our wedding. He captured it all perfectly! We chose to do our engagement shoot at The Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles. Oleg was on time and made the experience so much fun. I am very camera shy but he made us both feel very comfortable and captured candid moments of us purely having fun. On our wedding day, Oleg and his team arrived and conquered it all! They were a joy to work with and soooo organized. They created a 1-min movie-quality video for us the next day and returned some photos as a sneak-peek. I CANNOT WAIT to see everything else he captured from our special day! I would work with Oleg and his team over and over again!

Your wedding album transcends time as a cherished heirloom, destined to be passed down through generations. Each detail of your special day merits an exquisite capture, narrating your unique love story with grace and authenticity. Our approach ensures that your wedding remains a celebration of love and not merely a production set for photography, preserving the essence of your day in a luxurious and timeless manner.

As someone who recently hired this wedding photographer for my special day, I cannot recommend them enough. From the moment we first met, they were incredibly communicative and professional. They took the time to get to know my partner and I, our love story, and what we envisioned for our wedding day. This level of personalized attention made us feel valued and reassured that our memories would be captured beautifully. On the actual wedding day, this photographer was an absolute joy to work with. They were fun, energetic, and made us feel at ease in front of the camera. Their talent was evident in every shot they took - from the intimate moments between me and my partner to the candid shots of our friends and family enjoying themselves. But what truly sets this wedding photographer apart is their ability to capture not just moments, but emotions. Looking through our wedding album brings back all of the feelings from that day - the excitement, love, happiness, and even a few tears. It's like reliving the entire experience all over again. I highly recommend this exceptional wedding photographer to any engaged couple looking for more than just someone to take photos on their big day. They are a true professional who goes above and beyond to make sure you have an amazing experience.

I’m a husband to my high school sweetheart, I’m a dad to three gorgeous little girls, and I love my city of Costa Mesa, CA. Me in a nutshell...good coffee, bacon, and whiskey are my jam. A perfect day off consists of a mountain bike ride, some tacos, and swimming in our pool with my wife and daughters. I spent over 8 years in jobs that sucked the life out of me, but now I have one that breathes life back into me. You see, photography is not my identity…but it's definitely an extension of how I was created to see life. And I got into capturing meaningful moments because I am all about the life behind the moment, not just the event.

Steve did our engagement photos, family photos, tea ceremony photos, and wedding photos for us. He makes you feel instantly comfortable in front of the camera and the photo results show it. He is not only kind and engaging but take absolutely stunning photos. We hope to use Steve again in the future!!

Hi we're so glad you're here, Hello I'm Nardia and my husband's name is Dan. We are a husband + wife photo + video team and we love capturing the adventure and intimacy that we find in real relationships.

Foolishly Rushing In was an absolute dream to work with. We worked with them to capture both our engagement and wedding day. No matter how awkward you may feel in front of a camera, they somehow capture your love in such a pure and honest form. If you are very particular about color grading, you'd be happy to know that theirs is consistent and just gorgeous throughout! We loved how the end result wasn't too "posey," but looked natural and candid. Their films are incredible works of art, going in perfect sync with music to create such a gorgeous product. It was such a joy to work with them and we continue recommending them to everyone we know!

Costa Mesa, CA
  • Editorial style

My parents don’t have professional photos of their wedding. It’s ironic being that I photograph weddings for a living. Long story short, my Grandfather hired a distant cousin as their wedding photographer, his customer service was beyond subpar and pricing was vague. He eventually went out of business and apparently took the photos down with him. It’s a sad story but it is something that fuels my mission as a wedding photographer. To give my clients a memorable experience from the first Zoom meeting to the delivery of their gallery and beyond.

We highly recommend Nick for all of your photography needs. We had an intimate wedding on a friend's balcony, Nick did a great job of getting photos of everyone in the family in different settings throughout the day. He had great ideas and even had us walk down the street to an open lot and got some great outdoor/natural photos. The most special photos we have are the ones in which he truly captured the emotion of the moment, we will cherish them for our lifetime. Thanks Nick!!

Thank you for stopping by my website! My name is Yuki, and I am a photographer based in Southern California. Since I was little, I've had a camera in my hands wherever I go, and it has been my passion to photograph unforgettable moments. My influence came from my father who is a semi-pro photographer and videographer in Japan, and his journalistic photography style encouraged me to anticipate the moments and capture natural impressions. The moments I capture become the past, but what inspires me is seeing people’s reactions to the photographs I take. It is my hope that these moments become timeless. Often clients tell me that having a photo can bring back the feelings and memories of that moment, which is why I launched Yukipix Photography, LLC.

I’m Adam—a Boston native who’s now roaming around California photographing everything I see. When I’m not behind the camera you can usually find me in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes, sipping a dirty martini with friends, jamming to Taylor Swift in the car, or taking my rescue pup Ollie to the park or on long neighborhood walks. I got my first film camera when I was 8, and it was love at first sight. Capturing your story is more than just a job for me. From destination elopements to parties of the century, I've seen it all and love every minute of a wedding day.

Hiring Adam was far and away the best decision we made. He was always available in the months leading up to our wedding to answer questions, he showed up early on our wedding day to introduce himself to my parents and bridesmaids before he even started working, and throughout the day all of my guests kept coming up to say how much fun he was to be around. And on top of a memorable wedding day, he somehow got us previews the VERY next day as we were leaving for the airport and we spent the whole flight tearing up at all the beautiful moments he caught when we weren't even looking. I can't thank you enough Adam for making us feel so special on our day!

Pasadena, CA
  • Editorial style

  • Serves Mission Viejo, CA

While some photographers emphasize their gear or trendy post-processing, I take pride in subject-photographer interaction - the relation I build with clients, picking up on nuances in pose and expression while we shoot, anticipating the viewers' response - because ultimately, that's how photographs that matter to us are created. I'm a native New Yorker who found myself relocating to Los Angeles and making it my home. Wherever you'd like to have your wedding, it would be my pleasure to be your photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
To say that I love and trust Stephen's work is an understatement. I live in New York City with some of the most talented photographers in the world available for hire, and my first choice wedding photographer was to fly Stephen Tang to NYC from Los Angeles. I wouldn’t trust or want anyone else for the job of capturing our wedding. We have worked with Stephen before, and I just love his style of work. I also fell in love with his studio work after seeing another couple's engagement photos and wanted similar pictures for our own. Stephen knocked it out of the park. Stephen exceeded our expectations with the wedding photos. We have everything we requested and much more than we realized we needed. It was so fun to relive our wedding through the pictures. The only potential downside of my wedding pictures was I realized that I forgot to take a picture with my grandfather. I felt pretty terrible about it. I received my pictures from Stephen and cried because there was a beautiful candid of my grandfather and I. It was so much better than a posed photo. It captured the essence of who we are. You get what you pay for with weddings. Your pictures are your memories. They live on for generations. It was important to us to have the best photographs, and we knew we could trust Stehen to capture the event beautifully. Stephen went above and beyond our expectations and worth every cent. It won't be 2,000 photos and duplicates of the same shot. He’s going to give you a beautiful, curated story of your wedding. Stephen was also very helpful with looking over my timeline and telling me what was realistic. His experience allowed me to set expectations for what I'd receive, and he did nothing if not exceed them. Wedding days are beautiful. They are intimate, but they are also stressful. I’ve been to weddings where the photographer brings an anxious energy. That’s not Stephen. He’s calm and confident. He also takes charge in a non abrasive way. On my wedding day I needed that. I needed my photographer to be a calming influence and I’m so grateful that I had exactly what I needed. Stephen Tang.

A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Isaac and Love Knot Photography shot our wedding and they did an amazing job. After interviewing several photographers, we decided to choose Isaac and his team because he had the best portfolio, was very professional and friendly and he was well organized. The photos turned out so great, we really love the candids and portraits. Between taking amazing photos, they also helped out with a number of things throughout the wedding day. Isaac looked up a youtube how to fold a pocket square then the question was raised. He is very fun to have around and we appreciate all the effort he put into helping us have a great day. The photos tell the story of our day perfectly and we can't thank Love Knot and Isaac enough. We will be reliving our wedding day through these pictures and the collection is beautiful!

Welcome to PKA Photography! We are a dynamic husband-wife duo, our journey began when our own wedding visuals left us unsatisfied in 2022. Instead of dwelling on discontent, we took charge, giving birth to PKA Photography in June 2022. In this short span, we've joyfully captured over 300 weddings and events, spanning from intimate elopements to heartwarming civil ceremonies. Each event embodies a unique tale, a celebration of love, and an opportunity to freeze magical moments in time. In every project, we step into your shoes, ensuring that your experience with us aligns with everything we'd desire for our own wedding.

My wife and I could not have been happier to have chosen PKA as our photographers for our wedding! We had the pleasure of working with Mia, LaRon, and Kate, for both photography and videography. They were able to perfectly capture all of the special moments and made the process extremely fun and comfortable. Their communication skills are phenomenal which made it easy to prepare for the big day. Our ceremony was on Coronado Island and they scouted a beautiful location for our first look prior to the ceremony. During our meeting before the wedding, we had an idea of what we wanted, but the team was able to make it come to life even more beautiful than we could have ever anticipated. There is no doubt in our mind that Mia, LaRon, and Kate truly LOVE what they do. You can see their dedication and passion for their work in person and in pictures. Their abilities to capture jaw dropping images that we can look back on forever is something that we will always be grateful for. We will DEFINITELY be reaching out to PKA Photography for future events. Thank you once again to the wonderful PKA team, you helped make our day unforgettable.

By using a natural and unobtrusive approach, I create a more personal and intimate representation of their subject.

My husband and I had a wonderful overall experience with Bryan at White August Photography. From the initial phone call to the day we picked up our finalized wedding photos, he was nothing but professional! I was, at first, hesitant about deciding to go with White August for our engagement and wedding day photos, but after meeting Bryan at his office and seeing his works as well as photo packages, we knew he was the right one. We took our engagement photos a few months beforehand... the weekend after the Fourth of July. Even in the hot summer weather, Bryan helped us stay relaxed and stayed open about all suggestions or concerns. Thus, our engagement photos turned out beautifully! I have received so many compliments about our photos and many of my older friends who have babies/ will soon be married are asking about who took our photos because they want to hire Bryan for their events. He is definitely willing to work with any suggestions because he let us do the initial styling and choosing of engagement session sites. When we were stuck, he stepped in and gave us advice from his experiences. I couldn't have asked for a more comfortable and fun engagement photo session. On the wedding day, he came with an extra photographer to help shoot different angles throughout the ceremony and reception. Bryan also worked well with our other vendors and helpers, so that definitely was a huge plus for a stressed-out bride! Oh, and his timing is great! We received samples of our engagement photos incredibly fast, and we were able to send out save-the-date cards! Also, our wedding day photos were ready in a month with quality work :) I know I will be going to Bryan of White August for my future events and will refer him to friends and family!

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.

Born in the desert (AZ Baby!) and relocated to the sea. I firmly believe that a good day starts with a cup of coffee and ends with glass of red wine. I own more jewelry than I do clothes and in my opinion, too much gold does not exist. My biggest passion will always be photography. I’ve had a camera in my hands since I was a little girl – I would even set up “stylized shoots” in my family’s living room that consisted of sheets pinned to the wall, my friends and fake flowers (embarrassing, but I’m not kidding!). I strive for those editorial, Vogue-like shots, but I really live for those private, in-between moments.

We loved every minute with Kristina! She traveled to Arizona to shoot our engagement photos and she came all the way to Jamaica to shoot our Wedding. She has such a creative way of capturing the beauty of a single moment so effortlessly. I know, years from now when I see these photos, my heart will still race the way it did that day. For that, I will be forever grateful! When you think about it, there's very little remaining of your wedding day. The flowers have gone, the guests have flown home, you are back at work. About the only thing that remains is the photos, so I think it is a great investment to get the absolute best, and for that I would recommend Kristina Lee Photography every time!

Jazz kept things fun and light, she had hilarious tactics to make us laugh at the right moments (required for two awkward Brits like us haha) and she chose excellent photography spots based on our mood board. We couldn't recommend Jazz more!

I have traveled and photographed weddings and engagement shoots all over the country including internationally. I still get nervous before every wedding I photograph. If I didn’t have nervous tension, I probably would have lost the drive and passion for what I love doing the most. The reason for my love of wedding photography is simple: I love spending the day with brides and grooms creating wedding day memories that will last a lifetime. I hunt for moments that cannot be recreated or relived. I love capturing the raw emotion of a wedding day. I want to be the best not only for myself but especially for my clients.

I have worked with Peter Jonathan Images quite a few times and love his style, experience, creativity, punctuality, and quality. It is always a great experience working with him and his team!

I believe that love inspires art. Your wedding day will most likely be a blur of joy, nerves, and excitement with some extraordinary moments in between. Using both film and digital mediums, I balance a combination of both editorial and photojournalistic styles with a fine art approach. This collaboration will allow you both to fully enjoy each and every moment, as we tell the story of your wedding day. Wedding photography is an investment that lasts a lifetime, it’s the part of your wedding day that lives on. This is your love story, told in a classic, authentic, and timeless way.

Vanessa has an amazing eye and her work is gorgeous. She's creative, easy to work with, and has an attention to detail that's hard to beat. I couldn't be happier that I had the opportunity to work with her. I highly recommend Vanessa Rose Photography.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

Hanna Walkowaik is a wedding photographer based in Los Angeles, California, frequenting Chicago & NYC, traveling all around the world to capture love. Hanna creates artful and storytelling images of your day using digital and film. Her photos are filled with vibrant colors, candid moments and touches of nostalgia. She mixes editorial and documentary styles to not only give you beautiful portraits and captured memories but artistic images to hang in your home. With a Bachelor of Arts degree in photography her approach is artistic, purposeful and technically skillful.

Hanna is truly exceptional! We could not have asked for a better person to capture our wedding day. When my now-husband and I first started searching for wedding photographers, we were drawn to Hanna for her immensely beautiful and versatile portfolio. We spoke over Zoom and felt immediately comfortable with her — she has such a calming presence, made us feel like we had been friends forever, and assured us that she would help our vision come to life. We didn’t have much photography knowledge — we knew we wanted to take some shots in a nature setting like a park, and that we wanted someone who could capture color, as our venue had a specific aesthetic with green and blue walls. Hanna provided the most wonderful guidance for our photos and our day — she scouted many locations around our venue for our wedding portraits, taking into account the proximity and the nature setting we wanted. When we picked one, Hanna went to the spot the week before at the exact time we’d be there, so she would know the specific lighting and locations that would best fit. She also, months in advance, made a timeline for us to help guide the day and ensure that we had a schedule to keep everything on track. This was SO helpful and made the day so much smoother. On the day of our wedding, Hanna couldn’t have been more magnificent. She made us feel so at ease, which was paramount on a day that had so many heightened emotions. We aren’t used to working with professional photographers and were initially nervous that we would feel awkward, but Hanna truly made us feel so calm, comfortable, and joyous. She made the entire experience SO fun, and multiple of our wedding guests commented on how kind she was to them. Now the photos…the PHOTOS. Within a week of our wedding Hanna sent us our sneak peeks — about 160 of them, which is far beyond what we expected. They are stunning. Truly, stunning. She has sent us a gorgeous mix of color, black and white, and film. Our wedding day felt like such a whirlwind and Hanna captured all the emotions and all the moments in ways that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. I can’t look at them without being transported back to that day and the specific happenings — from our first look to our first dance — and feeling so overcome with happiness. I can’t choose a favorite because they are all stunning (and all our friends and family keep telling us with how much they love our photos). I’m especially appreciative of Hanna scouting a spot right near our getting ready spot that we hadn’t seen before that looks like a forest, and having us pose there for truly magical pictures. We also have some night shots and some photos from the bar area at our venue that look so editorial and glamorous that I can’t believe it’s us. Trust me, work with Hanna and follow her guidance. She leads with thoughtfulness and intention and it shows. You will get to know a terrifically talented and kind person and your wedding photos will not only be aesthetically marvelous, but you will feel like you get to relive your wedding day every time you look at them. Hanna is THE BEST and we are so grateful to have had the honor of working with her.

She stayed with us for hours, talking through ideas, showing us ideas and inspiration. We walked away so grateful to be working with her. Flash forward a few months to our wedding day, and I was so thrilled to see Virginie's face as I was getting ready. She is such a beam of energy, support and goodness - exactly what you want on your wedding day! She creative directed us so that we felt relaxed and happy, but knew that we were getting beautiful images. She captured EVERY. BEAUTIFUL. DETAIL of our wedding day - from the beautiful first look, to images with our family and friends, our ceremony and then those crazy/fun/wild dance floor pictures. We are over a year out from our wedding and still find ourselves poring over our wedding photos at least once a week.

As a child all, I can remember was carrying around one of those Fujifilm cameras and taking photos of family and friends. I always really liked taking photos and having those memories to look back on. Fast forward to 2017, I decided to take my hobby of photography seriously. I learned the ins and outs of photography, learned how to run a successful business, and learned the proper camera settings all on my own. Here I am years later running my business full time and I love what I do. I live and breathe photography. I know this is what I am meant to be doing.

We first booked Sheila for our engagement photos and knew instantly we picked the right person. Her bubbly personality made her incredibly easy to work with and she always did whatever she needed to do to get the best shots. Our engagement and wedding pictures were stunning and we got nothing but compliments from family and friends about her as a photographer and her pictures. We were a bit worried about who to book with and who would be lgbt friendly but Sheila was perfect! We would recommend her to anyone. I can’t stop looking at her photos of our wedding!

I’m so glad you’re here! I’m the Founder and Creative Director of Vision infinie Photography. I love outdoors and travel as much as I enjoy Netflix and popcorn, genuine friendships, healthy living, anything West Elm and above all sucker for creativity. True Nikon user with over a decade of experience in the photography industry, also graduated with Baccalaureate in Photography from The School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and Diploma in Photography from CEPT School of Architecture and Design, India.

Stavan was an amazing photographer for my wife and I. He was so responsive throughout the process, and we planned our wedding for over 9 months in the middle of a pandemic, so there was need for LOTS of communication! Stavan and his assistant were unbelievably professional. He took incredible photos and got them back to us before we even finished our honeymoon! We would highly recommend Stavan for any project or photography need. He was a pleasure to work with, and the finished project was better than we could have ever expected!

Hi There! I’m Stephanie, your photographer! I like to say that I am a woman of many angles. I am a Wife, Mother, Anything Vintage Collector, and DIY Queen! Just like you I couldn’t see my life without my other half, my soul mate. We started this business with an obsession and appreciation for vintage trailers! We converted our 1969 Scotty trailer into a Photo Booth and have kept dreaming along the way into wedding photography. I feel so blessed to have this opportunity to be here along with my husband Cody to share in your special day, but most importantly capture all of the heart bursting, eye watering moments!

Canned Close Up is such a talented husband wife team! The quality of their work is incredible, and they were so easy to work with day-of. We love recommending them to our clients, and hope to work with them again soon!

The Lou Effect Photography & Videography

Eastvale, CA
  • Editorial style

  • Serves Mission Viejo, CA

We are a Husband & Wife team currently based in SoCal but will travel to Las Vegas as well as any other state in the U.S. What is “The Lou Effect”? Well The Lou Effect is actually a quote my wife would say to me before going to shoots. Before heading out she’d always say “show them that Lou effect”, so from there the name was born. Essentially the goal is to always make every shoot as creatively unique as possible, by showcasing key moments from small details to those big wowing moments to truly tell your days story. But ultimately the desired “Effect” is to leave our clients with smiles on their faces and satisfaction in their hearts.

We just recently worked with The Lou Effect and they made our day go so smoothly and easily. Our photos and videos are amazing, we are amazed at how wonderful they are and thankful they were there to capture our day in such a beautiful way. I 100% recommend and 100% would book again for any event
