When my now husband and I decided to elope we knew a GOOD photographer was a non negotiable. The Jaramillo’s were exactly what we had in mind. Communication with them leading up to our ceremony made us more excited than we were. On the day of our ceremony Reigna’s timeliness, professionalism and bubbly personality made us feel less stressed, comfortable and like she was just another family friend there to witness our marriage. Can not recommend them enough !!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Emily was such a joy to work with! She took photos of my fiance and I, and we had such a fun time hanging out with her. She was so easy to be around and had all sorts of fun ideas from location to posing. Not to mention her help with outfit ideas! If you're looking for someone to take photos of you and your person just because or for your elopement, Emily is definitely your person!

Cassy Velazquez Photography

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.

We did our maternity and holiday family picture with Cassy, and our family love it! I have a golden retriever and a 3-year old toddler so you can imagine how chaotic it can be to take a good family picture with two goofy balls. Cassy is amazing! She has this special magic to make the photo session a fun game for them and capture the precious moments for the family (the interaction, the laugh and etc.). She is patient with all our requests (e.g. different combination of family members) and she is good at guiding us for poses that looks natural but aesthetic. The whole session was like a fun activity and the whole family enjoyed it. We got our picture in about a week ( it's just like a blink considering it is holiday season!) and everyone loves it - the photo gallery is super easy to access and share with family members. Perfect if you want to do a digital holiday cards :) I'd highly recommend Cassy to capture the precious moments for every special occasion.

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.

Isaac here with Intristry Pictures, I've worked with Maria several times this past year and every experience was great. We started referring each other late 2018 and since we developed a working relationship it's been joyous every time. I've worked with several photographers and she has to be one of the best communicators I've seen. Working with her is easy smooth, and allows the wedding day to flow so much better (For the Bride and us). The way she has handles stressful situations was with ease and I can see her Brides getting every ounce of her professionalism. I highly recommend Maria as a photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

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.

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.

Hey there! My partner Emilio and I have been shooting together for over 5 years. I personally shot my first wedding back in 2010! We're an LGBT owned company and we are so so so passionate about making sure everyone feels represented in a sometimes white-washed straight appearing industry, we love inclusivity. Our main goal is you having the best stress-free and FUN wedding photo/video experience.

Christian and Emilio were an absolute joy to work with from our exploratory communications, to the day of our wedding, and the delivery of our photo's and video. We are forever grateful to have them be apart of our special day. They listened to exactly what we asked for. We didn't want a lot of the typical wedding shots and wanted more candid photos. Not only did they deliver on that, some of the more staged photo's that we thought we didn't need, once we saw the outcome, we were happy that they worked a few of those in the mix ;-). Christian and Emilio totally got our vibe and it translated beautifully in photo's and our video. Our friends and family are still raving about it! Listen, we all know that sticking to a budget while wedding planning is necessary yet one of the biggest challenges BUT they are willing to work with you. I'm not kidding. These gents truly have your best interest at heart and that includes giving you quality work within a budget that works for you. My husband and I have very high standards and are very detailed oriented, so this a very honest review. Cross this off your 'vendors to hire' list and HIRE THEM! Don't even think twice about it.

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.

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.

So I can go back & revisit so many wonderful memories from my life...most of which I wouldn't remember without pictures!

I had a small wedding at home and she was there early in the morning and took photos of the entire day. She was taking photos to make my day memorable and focused on the details that I am so grateful she was able to capture. She photographed my family members too and made me feel beautiful on my day. I sometimes get awkward in front of cameras but she made me feel comfortable and I would for sure book her again when given the chance. I highly recommend. She’s very understanding of different cultures and made sure to capture those moments that made my day special. She edits beautifully and she also sent a flash drive in a beautifully presented box. I loved it. Her attention to detail is impeccable and you can tell she loves what she does. So grateful that my sister discovered her. Nicole was absolutely amazing.

We first hired Lisa from Bustle & Twine to photograph our wedding in 2016, based on a recommendation from a friend. Working with her was wonderful, from the ease of communication to her professionalism and flexibility. We currently have several of her photos on our wall at home and they make me smile every time I see them. She managed to find the right backdrops to create pictures that aren't just lovely mementos, they are works of art. To our surprise, she sent us first peek images in less than 24 hours, which was amazing and so fun to look at on our honeymoon! Beyond her talent as a photographer, Lisa is also such a kind person that she makes everyone feel comfortable and she is always open to questions, comments, or suggestions. I can't imagine a better wedding photographer. And I should say that we loved Lisa's work so much that we've now had her take family pictures for us four years in a row. We now have two (sometimes grumpy) little kids and she is AMAZING at getting them to behave and look their best while choosing locations that are amazing backdrops for what could otherwise be run-of-the-mill family photos. We've gotten so many compliments on her pictures and we will continue to work with her as much as possible. She is truly the best.

David and Blanca were incredibly professional and kind to work with. They captured all the special moments from our big day and posed us well along with our wedding party in our photo shoot. David coordinated with the photography venue (Mission San Juan Capistrano) and secured all the photography permits for us. He also threw in a bonus engagement photo session at a beautiful park in Irvine. On the big day, David and his wife, Blanca, were ready to go for our ceremony punctually and captured several beautiful memories. I barely noticed them throughout the ceremony, but when we received our photos, all our special moments were captured extremely well. They were again prompt and ready to go for our photo shoot at Mission San Juan Capistrano. We were time limited by the venue (our ceremony was at 2 in Costa Mesa and the Mission grounds close strictly at 5), but because David and Blanca were experienced and ready to go, we captured several beautiful photos at multiple places around the garden grounds. We were able to capture all the photos we needed and more within an hour. David and Blanca posed us and our wedding party well and the photos were professionally edited. They also captured all the special moments from our reception.

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.

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!

I am passionate about creating beautiful photographs that are sincere, meaningful, full of emotion, and feel like you. I want you to be able to look back on your wedding photographs year after year and remember all the emotions - the laughter, the tears of joy, and the love.

Awarded Best of Zola
Stacie photographed our engagements, rehearsal, wedding, and my bridals. I can sit here and attempt to describe her talent and passion for photography but words wouldn’t do it justice. Her work speaks for itself. I used her photos for our save the dates, thank you cards, Christmas cards, and even managed to create an all black & white gallery wall in our house and continuously have people asking me who took these incredible shots. I’ve even been told that “these photos look like something straight out of VOGUE” I can’t make that up. But Stacie is so accommodating and makes you feel comfortable to just be yourself which translates in your photos. The day of rehearsal and wedding she was an absolute ROCKSTAR. She has such a calming presence when emotions are running high and really took on more than the photographer role. Stacie was the heart beat of the show and kept us on track, while capturing it all!! She never skipped a beat. Her turn around time is also something to be noted. After each session she always sent a sneak peek in what seemed like just a few days and then you would receive the whole album of the session shortly after, not to mention how easy she makes the process of accessing and downloading your photos. Do yourself a favor and book Vitae Weddings. We’re forever grateful we did!

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.

Hello! I’m Savannah, the photographer behind Savannah Rose Photography.

I have been able to be a full time photographer for 8+ years. I love being able to use my passion for art and photography to help you create uniquely beautiful memories that you will enjoy for years to come. I am definitely guilty of being a bit of a perfectionist which ensures that I do everything I can to give you the best photography experience, whether it be portrait session or on your wedding day.

Savannah photographed our proposal as well as our wedding and both sets of photos came out so beautiful! She is the sweetest and so fun to work with! Prior to the wedding she took time to talk to me and make sure we were on the same page for how we wanted the photos to feel and look, what poses or types of shots we might have especially wanted etc. (but was also so good about helping direct us if we got in an awkward posing situation!!) and had beautiful ideas for photos that didn’t just look like every single other wedding picture you’ve seen! She also made sure everything for the day of was coordinated with a photo schedule for our first look and things like the family shots which made everything run smooth and was very stress free for everyone involved. She perfectly timed out when and where we would need to be for the best lighting and even before that (since our photos after the ceremony were off site) made sure that location was just right and would work well. She honestly thought of everything and her preparation was obvious in how perfect the photos turned out! Savannah captured the special parts of that busy day but also little things I was too distracted to really soak in, she’s worth every bit!

Above all, I want you to walk away from your wedding feeling like you and your new spouse were able to be completely present, immersed in a whirlwind of laughter and dancing and hugs from everyone you love most. Your photos should be a perfect reflection of that. The dream scenario is that you have a wedding photographer who gives off best friend energy and captures the day freely, unreservedly, with all the passion and excitement in the world because photographing love is a genuine pleasure and joy. I have been that person for many and would love to do it for you too.

Erin is the best. Period. It's hard for me to really find words to describe this incredible woman and the photos she created for both our wedding and engagement sessions. First of all, Erin runs her business very well. She's a great communicator, up front with pricing and services, and conducts her research to make sure she truly captures you as a couple. Second, she's SO talented. The lighting, composition and editing of the photos is exactly what I was looking for - airy, bright, simple. They don't look over-edited but still have that vividness that makes them look like they should be in a magazine. Lastly, Erin is just an outstanding human. She is kind, funny, goofy, and went the extra mile (actually the extra 200 miles) when we decided to elope after our wedding was cancelled for Covid. Like what?? Without a second thought, she jumped into planning mode and captured the day perfectly. WE LOVE YOU ERIN! And we will cherish these photos and your friendship 5ever.

I launched this business less than a week after graduating from UC Berkeley in 2016. ​

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 was such an amazing photographer to work with! She made sure I was getting the videos that I needed as she was her photos. Working with her made the day go so smooth and we got what we needed in a timely fashion! I’ve never had a photographer that was this easy to work with! I highly recommend her for your upcoming wedding!

For us, it is all about documenting your day as it unfolds. We are believers that the best photographs come from letting everything flow. We don't believe in interrupting special moments to get a safe (posed) photo. On the contrary, we capture all moments: the fun, the crazy, the unexpected. We will get your dad in tears when he sees you in your wedding gown, and will also take your nephew in the middle of a tantrum. All that is part of your story. When you see your photos in 5 years, you will remember how your special day FELT and not only how it looked. You don't have to worry about photos, you just have to enjoy your day at the fullest.

She was sharp at the time we requested, ready to start for the ceremony. She will stick with you and your invitee’s capturing all the important moments and highlights. She turned in all the pictures in promptly manner and time and offered some extra goods which completed the whole experience. Thank you!

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.

I LOVE our engagement photos so much ! Nadia did our engagement photos in Central Park, NYC. I was so nervous because it was raining but her attitude was so positive and calmed me down instantly :) during the shoot , she was patient and helped us feel more comfortable. She helped direct some poses because we are awkward (LOL) and caught some really nice candid shots . Bottom line is that I couldn’t have asked for better photographer !! I receive so many compliments on the engagement photos , some look like they’re straight from a magazine :) thank you , nadia !! You’re the best ! :) here them, you won’t regret it !
