Oakland, CA

  • Serves Forestville, CA

I’m Cherlyn (rhymes with Berlin). So nice to e-meet you! If we met in person and it wasn’t during a pandemic- I would probably hug you! I’m an introvert-extrovert and tend to ramble too much when I get nervous. In emails - I tend to use exclamation points a lot!! (and will agonize over my drafts of emails before sending them because they probably have one too many!!) My aim as your photographer is to provide a memorable experience where you two feel comfortable, taken care of, and get to fully enjoy your wedding day as much as possible with all your guests & loved ones - whether they be in real life or via livestream!

Cherlyn is a dream. A friend of ours recommended her to us for our engagement photos and I swear she has some inside scoop with the sun because the lighting was insane (in a good way). She literally managed to find every single shimmer the golden hour had to offer. My husband (never gets old) and I pulled together a somewhat last minute ceremony and reached out equally last minute to see if she was available, and thankfully she was. Our ceremony was followed by dinner and drinks at two separate locations hours apart - so we had super low expectations for capturing the whole day. Cherlyn not only came to each location, she helped with set up, and did her thing making sure every special moment was photographed. She's personable, thoughtful and will go out of her way to make you and your partner feel comfortable. For us she felt like an extension of our community and a new friend. If you're in the SF Bay Area, look no further. You won't be disappointed.

Sarah Peterson Photography

5.0

San Francisco, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,888
  • Serves Forestville, CA

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our experience with Sarah was absolutely fantastic. From the beginning, communication was smooth and effortless, with prompt responses to emails and even video conferences to discuss details. Our photography package included an engagement photoshoot in addition to wedding photography. The quality of the photos from both our engagement session and wedding day was outstanding. One of the highlights was receiving a few 'preview pictures' shortly after each shoot, allowing us to enjoy some beautiful moments right away. The pricing was transparent, and the payment portal was easy to use, making the financial aspects stress-free. Throughout the process, Sarah provided invaluable advice on shot lists and was incredibly easy to work with when it came to posing. If we had a specific idea or location in mind for a photo, she not only took the lead but also enhanced our vision beyond what we could have imagined. She also emailed us ideas and example photos for different locations for our engagement photoshoot, helping us make our vision a reality. On our wedding day, Sarah took many photos throughout our events, including getting ready in the bridal suite, first looks, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, speeches, and reception. She was excellent at directing our family members to ensure we got all our posed family photos. Sarah also took some beautiful shots of just us post-ceremony. Throughout the dinner and reception, we felt at ease and relaxed knowing Sarah was there capturing every moment. Beyond the professional aspects, our interactions with our photographer made us feel like we were working with a close friend. She always helped us to feel comfortable in front of the camera, despite us being introverted and inexperienced with being professionally photographed. Her support and encouragement throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding were truly appreciated and added to the overall wonderful experience. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a talented and personable photographer for their special day.

Loren Hansen Photography

Petaluma, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

Welcome. I’ve been a make-up artist, chocolatier, a barista, a pet-sitter, a bartender but I’ve always been “that girl with the camera.” (I’ve also been, “that girl who sleeps on our couch” or “that girl who’s booty I saw in the newspaper” but I digress…). Currently, I base my photography business in Petaluma, CA. I grew up in Sonoma County but in my early 20’s I picked up and moved to Manitoba and that’s where I stayed for many years. Upon my return to CA in 2013 I turned my passion for photography into a career. It’s been a journey to call photography my profession, but I’ve always been a photographer and I’ve always been an artist.

Awarded Best of Zola
Loren is incredible at what she does! From our proposal, to our special day, to our maternity shoot….she was able to capture the most special moments for our family in the most beautiful way. Her attentiveness to detail, down to earth personality, and warm energy are unmatched. She has this unique ability to make the awkward posed photos light and fun and her use of angles and lighting to create special candid photos is just simply amazing! We cannot thank her enough for the stunning photos that we get to cherish for years to come. There’s no question about it, we would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a high quality photographer! We have had a blast working with her and can’t wait for our next photo shoot!

There aren't enough great things to say about the Eichar's that haven't already been said!! We first inquired about an engagement shoot, and Lauren was super responsive with info and location suggestions. On the day of the shoot, she made us feel super comfortable since it was the first shoot my fiance and i had ever done. They sent us photos a few weeks later, and once we saw those, we knew we had to book them for the wedding as well. We opted for their photo and video package and are super happy with how everything turned out! Would definitely book again for futures photoshoots!

I am an irreverent guy who just so happens to create beautiful-rich-vibrant-uniquely-authentic wedding photography in and around the Bay Area, all over California and anywhere there’s beautiful light.

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.

We absolutely loved working with James and his team on our wedding day! They were so professional, kind, skilled, and made us feel at ease. We were not super comfortable in front of the camera so I was nervous how our photos would turn out, but they created such a relaxed environment, and our photos turned out so beautiful. Really quick editing turn around too, many photographers we scoped out would take 8-12 weeks to turn around all the photos. James and his team delivered nearly 1000 photos to us in just a few weeks. He also came to our rehearsal the night before (completely unprompted!) to scope out the venue ahead of time. Overall a phenomenal experience. I cant wait to work with Bustle and Twine again for family photos in the future. Thank you B&T!!!!

My name's Meg and I'm an elopement & intimate wedding photographer based in Sonoma County in Northern California. When my husband and I started planning our wedding day, we knew we wanted something very different than a traditional, big wedding day. We wanted an experience that was intimate, sentimental, and relaxed. And that's exactly what we created! We kept the traditions that made sense to us, and scrapped the rest without a shred of guilt.

Awarded Best of Zola
Meg did such an amazing job at our engagement session that we couldn't wait to work with her on our wedding day. Not only did she capture hundreds of special memories and details, but she also made sure we soaked up every beautiful moment of the day. Of all the investments on our wedding day, choosing Meg to be our photographer was our best one. Hands down.

Serving Healdsburg, Napa, Sonoma and the Bay Area Easy and fun, like all weddings should be. (The stress stops here.) If I know you like I think I do, you’re getting married in Wine Country because you know it’s a place you’ll get taken care of. It’s a town full of hospitality and warmth. And let’s not forget the great wine, the perfect scenery, and the memories you’ll have forever because you two came here to say “I do.” You’ll have those moments because I’ll document them for you. And I can’t wait.

Welcome! My name is Aryk, I’m a self-taught artist who built my skills from the ground up. My experience in photojournalism and street photography combined with my love of fine art are the foundation of my style. My approach to weddings is that of a documentarian and a witness. My couples are folks who value quality and intimacy, and want their wedding day illustrated with a unique album filled with artful candids, punctuated by breathtaking fine art portraiture.

Awarded Best of Zola
Looking for candids, street-style, and a mix of digital and film? Aryk is the photographer for you! Aryk captured all aspects of our September San Francisco wedding (welcome party, getting ready, ceremony, and reception), and every single image he captured was perfect. We wanted a gallery consisting mainly of candids and street-style images shot on mainly film but also digital, and Aryk delivered just that. My husband and I are not very comfortable in front of the camera, but we felt so comfortable with Aryk behind the camera! Aryk is incredibly calm, kind, fun, easy-going, creative, and thoughtful, professional, and punctual. He responded very quickly to emails not only from us, but also from our family members who had questions once we received our gallery. Added bonus: Aryk was very popular with our friends, family, and other vendors. Not only did everyone love the photos he captured, but they loved getting to spend time with Aryk. We are still receiving compliments on our photos! We highly recommend Aryk, and we will definitely work with him again.

After 10 years and over 200 weddings, I know how to fold into a large group of people, how to be there and make it feel like I'm not. I've been documenting weddings for nearly a decade and I love it even more now than when I started. My work is candid, emotional, and comfortable. I love to infuse editorial and documentary moments into my galleries, but mostly I just love to be able to photograph moments as they unfold.

Melissa was really fun to work with. Claudia was nervous and Melissa helped her feel more at ease. Claudia and I love all the photos she took, the ones she posed us and the ones we improvised.

Hey, My name is Boris and I'm stoked you are here. I'm passionate about creating authentic visual memories for humans who are madly in love with each other, so they can travel back in time and relive the deepest moments of their lives. I can't wait to hear your story!

Awarded Best of Zola
Boris was recommended to us by our original wedding photographer who had to back out, given she was moving her business to the East coast. From our first email exchange and phone call with Boris, he was such a delight to work with! We didn't actually meet in person until a few hours before our wedding when he arrived to start photos, and we immediately felt so comfortable and relaxed working with him. His attention to detail and ability to "herd cats" in order to make sure all of our preferred photos were captured was impressive, and he had great suggestions of photo areas / shots that we didn't even think of which was great. If you're looking for a photographer who is a true professional and can direct shots, look no further! Boris brought a great energy to our wedding day and our guests continue to sing his praise based on how gracefully he interacted with everyone at our reception to capture candid shots and we could not be happier with how our photos turned out! I highly recommend Boris and would love to work with him again!

Hi. It’s Michelle. And I’m a photographer who lets you relive every moment of your wedding. You cried coming down the aisle? Perfect! The best man forgot the rings? Hilarious! Three-hour portrait sessions? No way! Couples (and moms) ask me all the time…“How did you get that shot? I didn’t even see you!” That’s my style… unobtrusive, authentic, exceptional. I truly love what I do and it shows in emotional, meaningful photography. So, give me a ring. I can't wait to hear all about your big day!

We absolutely loved working with Michelle for our wedding. Michelle is so fun and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera from day one! She helped turn our “Covid/backyard” wedding into the most amazing and special day. She captures the most incredible moments and has an unbelievable eye for detail. Our day would not have been the same without her. Her love of “love” is contagious and everyone around her can feel it. Michelle is the absolute best. We cannot recommend her enough. She is so easy to work with and truly makes the wedding planning experience fun and memorable.

I'm Amy, chief picture taker, head editor, dubious web designer, and volunteer animal hugger at Amy Little Photography. Work is always fun because I'm never far from snacks and never close to snakes. Taking pretty pictures is easy. But documenting the honest, emotionally raw, and laugh-out-loud, because you didn't know that happened pictures is where I really shine. Photographing hundreds of weddings has deepened my joy of authentic storytelling. It's also been a catalyst for my cake addiction so I hope you're cool with being an enabler.

I LOVE working with Amy! She has such a fun personality and her work is beautiful.

Photography, to me, is more than a mere snapshot; it's a portal that transports us back to the emotions, the laughter, and the whispered secrets of a moment. Over the years, I've come to realize that it's not just about capturing images; it's about encapsulating the very essence of those instances that define us. Each time I press the shutter, I'm not just freezing time; I'm preserving the soul of that moment, ready to be revisited whenever the heart desires.

I love all those moments that make it real, and that no one sees. It's the images beyond the posed ones, or the times in between the poses that I really want to get into. It's the whispers, the giggles, the looks you share with one another- that's what makes me love my job. I want you to get your images back and think "she really got US".

My biggest passions are aesthetics and human connection...so weddings are naturally my favorite thing to photograph. After hundreds of weddings, I still find myself tearing up (or maybe a little more than tearing up) at almost every wedding I photograph. People describe me as being sweet and my work as having a delicate, elegant, feminine, and refined quality to it. I believe in authentic romance and real love. My favorite weddings are outdoors, featuring sweeping coastal backdrops, soaring redwoods, rolling hills, or gorgeous vineyards mixed with tastefully stylish decor - and always with a lot of love.

Right after graduating from CSU Sacramento in 2012 (with a BA in Photography, might I add!), I did photography as a side-hustle while working a couple of various jobs: part-time as a Summer camp counselor and full-time at a medical device company. After getting married in 2016, I moved to Modesto with my husband since he was working there at the time. Because of the move, I had to leave my jobs in the East Bay. I took this move to the Central Valley as a sign that I should do photography full-time. So, since 2017, I've been a full-time wedding photographer. We are now in beautiful Sonoma County!

I have a photojournalistic and editorial style, plus 9 years of wedding experience under my belt, so trust me that I've got it while you are able to fully enjoy your day and be present.

We absolutely loved working with Holly Castillo Photography on our wedding day. Holly was a delight to work with: friendly, relaxed, and knowledgeable. During the ceremony and the reception, Holly quietly and unobtrusively snapped away, capturing some truly wonderful and emotional images. When it came time for posed group and couple photos, Holly was efficient and communicated direction clearly but didn't give the air of being rushed, so everyone was able to feel at ease in what can sometimes be an awkward experience. I'm hoping not to have another wedding of my own, but I would book Holly again in a heartbeat if I did!

We had a wonderful experience working with Hok for our engagement photos, rehearsal dinner/ Sangeet/ Mehendi Raat photos, and wedding photos. From the first time we met Hok, we felt very comfortable with him, and he always made us feel comfortable in front of the camera (which is hard since we don't like being photographed generally!). His years of experience show and he has shot all over the Bay Area- he gave us suggestions for locations for our Sangeet and ideas for videographers, going above and beyond his photographer duties. We appreciated how he shot the diversity of our two families and traditions. His photographs are so incredibly beautiful, whether capturing a lehenga/sari or a white wedding dress, an individual portrait or a group dancing. He finds a great balance of getting great posed shots that look still look natural and candid shots that capture everyone's individuality. Our guests keep complementing us on our photographer, and we recommend him to all our friends and family. We will definitely use Hok again in the future!

My creative, fun, and candid photography uses innovative techniques and unique ideas to get photos that make you look twice. Whether you're saying vows in your backyard or having a 3-day adventure wedding in the rainforest, I'll catch every spontaneous moment of joy and laughter—and plan a few awesomely unique shots on top of it all.

Kathryn was so great to work with! I am overly easy-going and did not have a clear idea of what I wanted for photos for my engagement and wedding, but once I saw Kathryn's photos from other events I was sure I wanted her! Her photos show so much personality and are so vibrant, she gave me a sneak peak of the wedding photos just days after the wedding and it got me so excited to see the rest and made me 100% sure I chose the right photographer for my 'big day'. She came up to Humboldt County, CA for our engagement shoot and we did an adventure style session, we hiked all around the College Cove forest and beach and she had both my husband and I feeling very comfortable in front of the camera (neither of us usually would be). The photos came out so beautifully and there are so many to chose from and love. Her assistant was also great! My wedding was pretty un-organized but everything came together so perfectly at the end. She was very understanding when my payment had to come in small portions as well because my Zelle app wasn't working properly. Pretty much all I told her was that I wanted 90% candid in the moment photos and just a few family portraits on top of our couple portraits. I was very grateful that all I had to do was give her a few sentences of what I knew I wanted and she gave her all to give me what I wanted and more! I would 100% chose her over and over again to photograph our events!

And that's why you should choose someone you truly love to work with! I believe the real magic happens during the in-between moments – a secret smile shared by the parents; a tearful hug with the maid of honor; a quirky moment with the best man. These memories are far more precious than any staged photo, and these are the memories I want to capture for you on your big day.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough about how happy we are we hired Hannah as our wedding photographer! Once I saw her work I knew we had to work with her immediately, specifically for the sunset photos that looked right out of a bridal magazine! I immediately reached out to Hannah and pretty much the rest is history! Our phone call to gauge if we would be a good fit was filled with laughs and it just felt so natural! She was extremely communicative and easy to work with which helped with all my wedding planning anxieties tremendously. The engagement shots with her was where we first got to meet and it felt like meeting a true friend. She had us laughing non-stop and made us feel truly comfortable. We felt awkward on our drive over, having never done professional photos before, but she immediately put us at ease! On the day of the wedding Hannah and her team were so kind, so efficient, and so professional! We had a large (read here rowdy) wedding party and some difficult family dynamics that they expertly navigated. Their team made sure everyone just truly was themselves and had fun! The pictures showed just how comfortable and happy everyone was in her presence. The photos truly captured the spirit of our big day and transport us right back there every time we look through them. Our family and friends we have shared the photos with are absolutely amazed and just how well they turned out and how much they feel like our big day did. I cannot recommend Hannah and her team enough! Truly the best decision we made!

Neither my (now) husband nor I am tremendously comfortable being the center of attention and photographs are... frankly... just that. But the Natura Collective team had such a warmth and comfort about them, we honestly had the best time with them! From the engagement session to the portraits before the event, taking pictures felt natural and even fun! During the actual wedding they were everywhere we wanted them to be without our even noticing it. And the photos we've received back are so perfect! I cannot recommend them enough!

Her aesthetic is cool, clean and classic. We’ll we cherish the photos for the rest of our lives but the best part was that it felt completely natural to get them. We never felt too posed, Annie just always seemed to be in the right place at the right time. She was flexible, helping us meet all our goals (so many family portraits!) but also have fun!

Toby was fantastic! From beginning to end, he was very professional and accommodating. He artistically captured our special day and worked well coordinating photos with our large families. We love his edits, the angles, creative shots and all of the special candids! We requested a second photographer and a videographer as well; the entire crew was very professional and skilled & worked well together. He was very detailed in gathering information about the specific kinds of shots we wanted, and it was a relatively high bar given that my wife’s dad is a wedding photographer by trade. Toby did not disappoint, and had good chemistry with our family and guests, even connecting with Dad in the process. We're very thankful to have chosen Toby and his team to capture our special day!

She didn't just take pictures; she captured our essence. And she was so patient, and dedicated, both during the wedding planning and during the day of (in addition to a very nice engagement photo-shoot!). From the get-go, Katelyn was all in. She spent time getting to know us, understanding that we were a bit camera-shy, and scouting out locations to get the best shots.

She blended into the background, all while snapping away and capturing our moments—moments we were too caught up in the day to see. Seeing our photos for the first time, we were blown away. They weren't just beautiful, they were authentically us. Katelyn took our quirky traits and tender looks and turned them into art, and captured a great party in amazing detail. There were a few unplanned moments during the party (the Horah, etc), that happened in a blink of an eye, and Katelyn managed to capture them perfectly!

Hey future newlyweds! I'm Jarrod, a wedding photographer that specializes in story telling. Tired of all the bright, overposed, cookie cutter sh*t you keep seeing? Let's create wedding images with real emotion, story, and intention to them. I know being in front of the camera can be awkward. That's why I choose not to pose couples, but instead prompt you to do something like "take off your shoes and run across the field" or " get inside the car and kiss everywhere except the lips". These prompts will help you feel comfortable and also help create candid images. Check out my website for more info :)

Awarded Best of Zola
Jarrod did an amazing job on our wedding day! We were so very grateful to have him there with us. He was absolutely amazing and did a great job collaborating with our other vendors and coordinating logistics and timing of what we wanted to have done. We were so happy that we got videography done for our big day- feels like we’re reliving it each time we watch it! Highly recommend and very worth it!!!

I was introduced to the world of photography the same week I was introduced to the world! All thanks to my Dad, who was never without his camcorder or camera. Because of him, our memories growing up are preserved. Then I got my first camera + tons of film. I documented everything. When film turned into digital, that was a turning point in my life. Since then, my memories, large + small, have been organized on my computer, by year. So I can go back + revisit so many wonderful memories from my life...most which I wouldn't remember without pictures!

Met Nicole while working at a wedding in February 2024. She was very kind to our staff and not in the way at all. She allowed everyone to enjoy the party without blocking views or being rude. Yet managed to do her job with a smile the whole time! She is very pleasant!

We love PJ, and have loved getting to know him through our wedding planning process. We now consider him a friend! When we initially started interviewing photographers, my now-husband fell in love with PJ's personality and style almost instantly (I wish I could say that is how he fell in love with me....). PJ shoots with natural lighting so beautifully and upon speaking with him over the phone...we knew he was the right fit for us. We first met PJ in person when we did our engagement shoot in September 2019. He instantly made us feel comfortable and at ease. Our photos turned our natural and were beautifully captured. He seamlessly captured our go-with-the-flow and goofy natures, love of donuts, and love of our East Bay neighborhood. Flash forward a few months....and a worldwide pandemic hits. PJ has been such a grounding force during these last few months as we changed our wedding plans again and again. PJ has been nothing but patient and accommodating for us. We finally decided on a micro-wedding in a private residence. Not going to lie, I was nervous that our photos were going to look meh-meh since our "venue" wasn't fancy. When we got our photos back, I was awe-struck. PJ really worked his magic and made everything look like it came out of a fairytale. Post-ceremony, we arranged for a golden hour newlywed shoot. Let me tell you, PJ will do ANYTHING for the shot. We climbed hills, rocks, and got into bushes. PJ is dedicated to his craft. We can't wait for PJ to come back out to shoot our postponed reception and our future family photos. We feel pretty lucky that we found a photographer we truly love and can't wait to continue to work with.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jos and Tree came highly recommended to us and, having worked with them, we now know why! A lot of people take wedding photos. Among them are a handful of folks who are also reliable, professional, and pleasant to work with. And within that smaller group, is an even smaller group of photographers who have real artistic vision matched with technical skill. Jos & Tree are, without a doubt, near the top of that select group. The images they produced of our wedding run the gamut from traditional wedding photos to absolute masterpieces of lighting, composition, and technical execution. Here's an example: as the day was wrapping up, and a bit *after* Jos and Tree's deadline for leaving had passed, they quickly posed my wife and I in front of a tree in the park; Jos had a vision for an image he wanted to capture in the fading light... and the resulting image proved absolutely magnificent; it is my favorite photo of the day, and among the top photographs I have seen anyone create, anywhere. On top of the artistic talent and skill, Jos & Tree were an absolute pleasure to work with; responsive, pleasant, personable, and fun. They were always on time, and ready to work... and work they did!! The amount of effort and energy they put into capturing lots of beautiful and creative images cannot be overstated. And then, they edited them beautifully, and have been working with us to select images to print and put in a book. The quality of their artistic consultation has been phenomenal. My wife and I have seen a lot of wedding photos that people proudly post online on sites like reddit. I can confidently say that I've yet to see more interesting and beautiful wedding photos than the ones I've seen from Jos and Tree. It's a pleasure to give these two lovely people our highest recommendation.

Natalie is really organized and helped us finalize a timeline which made our day smooth. She fixed boutonnieres, managed our massive family photo, and even drove my husband and I from our ceremony to the reception. Having our engagement session with her also prepped us a little for what to expect. She gave us direction, and made us feel more at ease. Our ceremony was at Old Mill Park, and our couple photos in the redwoods were dreamy. She has a great eye, and the photos really were magical and timeless, with just the right amount of moodiness. She brought along a 2nd photographer, and they both caught really fun candid moments of our family and friends. She also had our photos back to us so quickly.

Oklahoma raised, Princeton educated, and founder of Portrait of a Young Couple, documenting how couples of all backgrounds and identities across the world live and love. I'd love to be a part of helping to capture you and your partner's love.

The Experience - My husband and I are both pretty camera shy, so it was really important for us to find someone we felt comfortable with. Vincent managed to win over my introverted husband in a surprisingly short period of time, and was easy to talk to about what we were looking for. Vincent was helpful in guiding us through poses for our couple portraits and also impressed us with how he made our friends and family comfortable throughout the day. The Photos - We wanted lovely photos that we could treasure, but we didn’t want all of the pictures to come out overly filtered or washed out. Vincent’s photography stood out to us because it feels authentic and timeless at the same time. He got the previews and photos back to us in a timely fashion after the wedding, and we were thrilled with how the pictures came out. There was one photo that we wanted something small photoshopped out of the background, and Vincent was accommodating in making that edit that we requested after receiving the photos. The Communication - With so much going on right before the wedding, it was helpful that Vincent checked in on us for things he needed a couple months ahead of time. This helped us know what to figure out and gave us buffer if we were late on getting back to him. He was always quick to respond to our questions, and as mentioned earlier, he was great at communicating after the event as well. Overall if you can get on Vincent’s calendar, I’d happily recommend our wedding photographer to anyone

I cannot recommend April enough! Leading up to the wedding, we had to make some last minute changes due to covid restrictions. April was so easy to work with throughout the whole process and helped me find an option that fit well within my budget but still perfectly captured my big day. During the actual wedding, I still cannot believe how easily she kept things flowing. I was nervous about looking awkward or uncomfortable in the pictures, but April helped us both feel comfortable and we spent the entire session laughing. The pictures came out so beautiful too!! Looking through them, I really feel like a princess. I really cannot recommend April enough. You won’t be disappointed!

California native, PNW resident, coffee drinker, dog scritcher, friend, forward-thinker, designer. I hate having my photo taken (go figure), my dog Boone makes me laugh every day, and I thrive off of honest, intentional conversations. I’ve worked as a photographer for over 8 years and I know that half the job is connecting with people and offering them an experience, not just a gallery. I believe you have to feel comfortable with the person behind the camera before you can let go and fully be yourself in front of it.

Becky has shot photos of every single important event in my adult life and we are always SO happy with the result! She is amazing at what she does, from my wedding to baby shower to maternity photos to family photos with a 1 year old! Her photos are flawless and edited beautifully. She brings out the best in everyone when she shoots and makes you feel so comfortable. We recently had to move out of state and had to go to another local photographer and it was a nightmare, for the first time we didn’t get to shoot with Becky and we missed you terribly! Consider yourself lucky if you can ever shoot with Becky G!

Capturing your beautiful & intimate moments is why I do what I do. Whether it's the brush of a hand, a first look, or an inside joke whispered at just the right time... I am constantly seeking to capture those beautiful moments. Those real, stunning and timeless moments that make up YOUR relationship. However, I pride myself on being more than a wedding photographer – As someone who has been an intimate part of over 200 weddings, I vow to be your number one hype woman, your timeline planner, your moment of zen, your personal cleavage taper, your family wrangler, your time pauser, and your memory keeper.

Mycah came down to Chicago to take our engagement pictures – We started at the Chicago Institute of Art, walked the streets to the Chicago theater, and ended on a bridge overlooking the river. These are hands down some of the greatest pictures I have ever had taken of me, and I have had so many people reach out to me asking who the photographer was. Not only is Mycah absolutely brilliant when it comes to photography, and capturing love in a way that is authentic and powerful, but she also has a natural ability to make the entire process so seamless and calm. My fiancé made it very clear before we took pictures that we were going to be doing his 2 least favorite things – PDA, and taking pictures. Yet after the afternoon we spent taking pictures together he was so grateful for the experience, and even rated it a 10/10! I can't say enough about how talented Mycah is, and I would never trust anybody else to take my pictures.

Capturing vibrant, authentic, and effortless images for my couples makes me giddy!! My approach is all about reading the room and playing off your vibe. If you’re up, I’m bringing the energy. If you’re having a sweet tender moment, I’m calm and patient. I’ll keep you on time while also allowing space for you to live in the moment. I love making real connections with my couples and letting your personalities shine through the images. I’m super conscious of the fact that this is YOUR wedding day! So I love a good candid and aim to make y'all feel comfortable in front of the camera so you can enjoy the day knowing the moments are being saved.

I can't begin to say how much I loved working with Jodee. She made us feel comfortable with the process, willing to answer any questions, and passionate to ensure we had everything we envisioned for the day.

My professional background was cultivated in the field of architecture and design. But around 2010, my obsession with photography overcame my passion for architecture and I changed course. Through years of experience as a wedding photographer, I’ve developed a genuine love and appreciation for these emotional events. To me, weddings are emotionally-charged, symbolic celebrations. They often inspire pure expressions, words and feelings from the couple and their family and friends.

We found Duy while doing the rounds looking for wedding photographers, and after the fact, I'm confident we found the best person for the job. What I'm most impressed with is the vision he brought to the event based on the time of year, dress code, venues, etc. His direction and attention to detail showed through in the final product, and he was great at listening to one of our half-baked ideas and making it work! Beyond the pictures, Duy's calming presence was helpful throughout the whole experience, from the engagement shoot to the wedding. He's a great communicator and we felt like he was on our team throughout the whole experience. We always felt heard and truly hope to work with him again. Last but certainly not least, he was priced competitively and on the lower end compared to some of the other quotes we received.
