I have coordinated with Adam Levinstein on 2 weddings in the last year and it is such a breath of fresh air as a coordinator that he comes early & prepared. Follows the timeline we worked on together, and communicates effectively with the bridal party. Making it easier to do all my other tasks on the wedding day. I don't feel like I have to watch over him, instead we work together efficiently to create a glitch free wedding day for our clients. Not to mention, I also receive wonderful feedback from my couples about him being so caring & about the final product.

David and Bianca Photography were so kind, responsive, and easy-going. They made me feel very comfortable and I hardly even felt their presence throughout our wedding. However, they made sure to capture all the important moments I asked for.

ZAYA PHOTOGRAPHY

5.0

Los Angeles, CA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves Lake Forest, CA

Meet with your Photographer. "The most important thing for me is to create a feeling with my bride and groom, in order to have the best approach on the D-day, and to respect a professionalism, a dress-code, or a planning while keeping the pleasure of capturing these unique moments for my clients."

I'm so excited to share my experience with photographer Oleg, and don't know where to start. My fiancé and I spent so much time on the research in order to find the best team, and best quality product, and Zaya was absolutely the right decision, besides they have exceed all the expectations we had. They managed to take all the beautiful moments (even those that I forgot) and the pictures editing was sooo perfect. Since we didn't have enough time on preparation (month only), we couldn't meet with them in advance to discuss what exactly we were looking for, but let me tell you, the real professionals do not need any guidance. The whole team are such perfectionists, and all the services they provide are for 100%. I highly recommend Oleg’s Zaya to anyone who is looking for their moments to be captured by real professionals.

He also delivered the photos quickly, which was a nice surprise. If you're looking for a photographer who's easygoing and skilled, G's worth checking out. Looking forward to our wedding :)

Amy Captures Love

5.0

Lake Forest, CA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,200

I am a small-town girl originally from Northern California. I began photographing the world around me at age 16 and went on to study film photography at my local Community College in my hometown and took almost every class they offered (I still shoot film to this day!). I officially started my business in 2011 and I have been serving Southern California for the last ten plus years with award-winning services.

I found Amy Captures Love through WeddingWire. After a few messages and phone calls, I narrowed it down to Amy because her photos look so natural and authentic and each photo she took has life and sweet moments in them that no other photographers was able to capture. After a few phone calls, and messages, my then fiance and I chose her because she was very professional, timely and set realistic expectations for us. One other thing I also considered was that Amy has worked a lot with families with little children & babies. This was part of our deciding factor because there were a few kids and toddlers that will be at our wedding and I wanted a photographer that knew how to work with children. Our first session with her was our engagement photo shoot and she made each posing moment comfortable and not awkward at all. When it came to our wedding day, everything exceeded our expectations!! She had a timeline and she made the whole process so easy! I'm part Filipino so I had a lot of family and family categories(cousins, aunties, etc.) to go through and she was able to organize everything and make it smooth, easy, and flawless-just what it should be for any bride on her wedding day. Her price point is reasonable and realistic to what you're getting. I have nothing but praises for Amy. When the time comes for our family to expand, I'll definite work with her again!! Choose Amy and you will not regret it. It's been about a year and a half and my family still talks about our wedding photos!

Kay creates magic. She is absolutely amazing! We were thrilled to work with her for both our engagement and wedding photos. She is super professional, friendly, fun and such a pleasure to collaborate with. It is clear to see the care and dedication she puts into her work and into the relationships with her clients. She was a HUGE advocate for us on the day of our wedding to ensure we got photos we wanted when we wanted them. During our time with her, she guided us every step of the way, and made us both feel so comfortable. We will forever be grateful for the beautiful moments Kay captured of our special day. I vividly remember several candid moments during our wedding & ceremony where I thought to myself "I would love to keep a snapshot of this memory forever." When we got our photos back, I was brought to tears of joy, as Kay captured those exact candid moments and they were even more beautiful than I remembered.

Jason Burns Photography

5.0

Lake Forest, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,000

My name is Jason Burns. I’m a photographer specializing in weddings and elopements based out of Southern California. I've always had a love of the arts and have taken every opportunity to participate in them, discovering photography in college. Growing up in the pacific northwest, being surrounded by such all that nature and beautiful landscapes I feel has always inspired me in my photography. I feel grateful every day that I can call this my career.

My wedding planning company has hired Jason many times and he's always professional and a calm presence at our events! I also appreciate Jason's clear planning communication and flexibility. Even during our 2020 events, we were able to work out postponements and multiple re-scheduled celebrations. I love Jason's photography skills and relaxed, yet refined shooting style. I will continue to recommend him to my future clients, as working with Jason is always the best!

We recently enjoyed our engagement shoot with Jesse and had a wonderful experience! He helped us feel so comfortable and relaxed. He provided a perfect balance of romantic, creative poses while mostly allowing for natural, candid shots. The lighting, framing, editing—everything looked so beautiful! He returned our photos so quickly and with such quality, and we had such a fun time shooting. We can’t wait to have him capture our wedding and highly recommend his excellent work. Thank you Jesse!

Dan And Tyler Photography

Irvine, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $6,500

We're Dan & Tyler Photography, a husband and wife photo and videography team in Orange County, California. We've been shooting professionally for the past 10 years and have entirely fallen in love with every part of it. Our faith in Christ brought us together and truly defines who we are now and how we run this business. Our drive is to love and serve you.

There are not enough words to express how wonderful this husband and wife photography team is. My husband and I wanted a small, intimate ceremony for our wedding in the mountains of Yosemite. We knew we needed a special team that would be able to help make our vision come to life. We didn't want a large wedding, no fancy cake, no large celebration- the one thing we wanted to invest in was a good photographer and videographer. Honestly, Dan and Tyler were a gift from God and exceeded our wildest expectations. From our first shoot with them for our engagement photos they were immediately comforting and encouraging. My husband HATES being in photos and gets teased for his not being photogenic. However, Dan and Tyler made him feel so comfortable that he was able to relax, and everyone who knows him was shocked to see images of him actually smiling and laughing, looking very photogenic. Dan and Tyler met with us for plans on the wedding as well as for the small family reception we had later on. In total, we hired Dan and Tyler for three separate occasions, and we would hire them for one million more. The vision meeting with them was incredibly helpful. They were organized, gave us great advice and guidance, and were so warm and easy to work with. All communication with them throughout our engagement, wedding, and reception season was timely, clear, and friendly. On our wedding day weekend I was a ball of stress. It was Dan and Tyler who helped keep me calm and helped keep the wedding on schedule and organized. Honestly, I don't know how we would have done it without them. They played a critical role in our ceremony. They captured the most special moments, the most beautiful images, and the sweetest videos. I have been told the highlight video is the best many have seen. I can also say that your first moments after being married are so full of emotion, and who you share that with is very important. You'll spend those special moments with your photographer, and Dan and Tyler are exactly who you would want by you.Their presence was so peaceful, encouraging, and and calming. The same went for our reception. They helped us stay on track and ensured we captured every moment we wanted. As I said before, there are not enough words to express how wonderful this team is. I have many friends who have horror stories with photographers. With Dan and Tyler, there is only confidence and peace when engaging with them. It is so important to consider who you will trust with these moments, because these are moments you can never get back. Dan and Tyler's photography and videography is the best investment hands down that we made for our engagement, wedding, and reception. Their presence and products were worth every bit of the investment. I cannot, cannot, cannot recommend them enough. I will eternally want to thank them and give them the biggest hug for their role in the most special day of our lives. If you haven't resolved it already, hire them. You'll be forever grateful you did.
