Connie Leal Photography

Brentwood, CA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,200

My name is Connie and I have been shooting weddings and portraits for over 15years. The goal for me is to give my client an heirloom of their wedding day to pass down to generations to come. As a young kid, I remember staring at my parents black and white wedding photos for a long time. It captivated me. I am very lucky to have those memories and that is what I want for my clients. I love capturing beautiful imagery through posing, beautiful light and when there isn't light, I like to create it. I can be a goof ball capturing the unexpected filled laughter. Come look at my work, and hopefully we can connect.

Connie was so awesome to work with! Leading up to the wedding she was easy to communicate with and always responded to my emails quickly. When my wedding day rolled around she was at the venue on time and got to work. She was patient with everything going on, she had an assistant as well that was great! I told Connie that I was worried about taking pictures because I never considered myself photogenic, she told me not to worry. She did a great job! The pictures turned out beautiful! I love them! Now the hard part is choosing which ones to print.

Suisun City, CA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,500

Welcome. "I BELIEVE...connection matters. Photos tell our story and carry our legacy. Melanin matters on camera. Every human deserves to be seen. 8 out of 10 humans say they feel awkward in front of the camera; Laughter is the antidote." ​ It is my loud passion to capture the personality of relationship...within couples, families, communities, and even organizations. And I have been this way since I was a kid. With my hot pink camera in tow, 8-year old me would capture the loud joy of my BIG extended family. Little did I know...they were my training ground in photography. And I am happy to say that my approach to photography hasn't changed.

Working with Brandi and her team has been an absolute pleasure! We've collaborated on five events together, and each time has been an effortless and seamless experience. When I popped the question about her availability for my own wedding, her enthusiastic response sealed the deal. From the moment my wife met Brandi over Zoom, she knew we had found our perfect match. Her warmth and professionalism shone through, and it was evident that she was not just a talented photographer but also someone with whom we could easily connect. Our wedding day was captured beautifully, with every moment immortalized in stunning photographs that we will cherish forever. Such was the impact of Brandi's work that we didn't hesitate to book her again for my wife's birthday celebration in November 2023. Once more, she delivered beyond our expectations, capturing the essence of the occasion flawlessly. If you're in search of a photographer who not only has an eye for detail but also possesses a wonderful personality, look no further than Brandi. She's attentive, creative, and a joy to work with. Trust me, hiring Brandi will be one of the best decisions you make for your special day!

Hi, I'm Carrie the lady behind the lens of Cmg Imagery. I'm a photographer with a focus on natural light and storytelling. In my work, I am inspired to capture love and connection in a timeless and authentic way that will be cherished for years to come. I love creating images that capture the heart and soul, the candid moments, the playfulness and personality. So get ready to adventure and let's tell your story!

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Carrie was an incredible experience. My fiancé and I hired her to take our engagement pictures and they are better than I could have imagined - so good that we've also hired her to do our wedding in October! Carrie's eye for detail and her ability to capture the essence of every moment transformed ordinary scenes (our backyard, In n Out, and our favorite dive bar to name a few!) into life-long memories. I think what truly sets her apart is her ability to establish a genuine connection with her clients. Throughout the shoot, Carrie made me feel at ease, enabling both of us to express ourselves naturally, resulting in photographs that truly reflected our personalities and captured the perfect moments. I highly recommend this photographer to anyone seeking not only exceptional photographs but also a truly enjoyable and memorable experience.

Pat was amazing at our wedding, she'd show up at places, corners you never expected her to be, she'd hang from the ceiling if she could get a better shot! We felt like movie stars with the paparazzi's on us at all time! She shot from beginning to the end of the wedding party and came out with over 500 beautiful photos we will cherish for a lifetime. Thank you Patricia, you really captured to mood and what we worked so hard for to create a memorable wedding for everyone with the focus on us but also all of our guests and the three phases of the wedding.

My passion is capturing authentic moments, finding beautiful light, and creating images that tell your story. I work in digital but also love the art of film photography, and I've been photographing weddings for 15 years. I am based in the San Francisco Bay Area and I love the diversity of weddings I am so fortunate to document. I love to travel and I also photograph destination weddings. When I’m not out snapping photos, I love to work in my garden, cook, and play with our young goldendoodle.

Sonya was amazing, she photographed our engagement and our Indian wedding ceremony. Even without being totally familiar with the parts of the ceremony, she captured all the pivotal moments beautifully. she is very intuitive and made us feel very comfortable. We loved the slide show she put together with the photos from our day, and sent it to our families who watch it on repeat. We can't recommend her enough, she is not only artistic, but a really nice person which made it so much easier. She was also able to keep our rowdy families in-line for the group photos.

  • Editorial style

Radostina (rhymes with “patina”) was born and raised in the coastal town of Varna, Bulgaria. After finishing her Master’s in Arts, she moved to the Czech Republic, where she began her career in graphic design, styling, and art direction. It was there, in the middle of her Czech adventure, that the passion for film photography was born. Now, an award-winning fine art wedding photographer, Radostina resides in San Francisco, with her husband Martin and their English bulldog, Fuji.

We are so happy that we chose Radostina to capture our special moment. Everything was smooth and contributed to the overall experience - from the initial contact to photographing the event to delivering the stunning photos. Radostina's attention for detail is second to none and her taste is impeccable, she gave us great ideas before and during the event on how to capture every moment in a way that we can preserve our memories. The colors, the captured light and the emotions on the pictures are just mesmerizing, probably because it was captured on film. We'd love to have Radostina capture another special moment for us in the future.

Awarded Best of Zola
Before my engagement pictures, I was like most men that thought any photographer will do.. but boy did I get proven wrong. After going over his portfolio and discussing my fiancé’s ideas for pictures, I started to think photographer were somewhat important… but boy did my opinion change again.. I didn’t understand his true talent until my personal experience with him. Not only did he save the day by changing our location due to horrible weather at our desire location, but he also use the weather as a statement to some of the pictures. Living in Las Vegas, we wanted a more natural environment that did not contain the city lights, and he delivered. Not only did he use all the poses that we pre-requested (which shows his attention to detail and organizational skills), he also thought outside the box by creating ideas in the moment with things around the new location. He constantly said jokes and made us laugh to assure we looked as happy as possible in every photos. Even when we requested and suggested different poses and features to be included in the moment, he always took those pictures and built from those idea to other amazing photos. Just when I thought we did a great job finishing the photo shoot as the rain began poring, I got proven wrong again. As we drove away from the now raining location, he found a rainbow where he asked if we would be willing to pull over and get a little wet for the money shot— and boy was that a MONEY SHOT like Jordan. Not only was the picture perfect, but simply remembering the experience of capturing that moment makes it that much more special. This is indeed my favorite picture and most people do not believe that we lived that experience because we look “photoshopped.” I know this is getting long, but I need to share that his editing skills are on point. He definitely edits to customers’ preferences, and he makes a good picture look great, and a great picture look phenomenal. Did I mention that he gets straight to work on his editing that we received an handful in less than 24 hours, and our whole portfolio in less than 2 weeks. Although the the price may sound expensive at first my guys, he definitely deserves that amount. His craft, creativity and passion for capturing your stories makes him worth every cent.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. 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.

We found Love Knot Photography last winter while wedding planning. There were a few things we noticed right off the jump which gave us confidence that we had found our wedding photographer. 1) they were extremely thoughtful in helping us plan our wedding day schedule and what we wanted to prioritize 2) the natural style, colors and joy captured in the photos is exactly what we like 3) after looking at the packages and comparing, they are a tremendous value 4) composition and storytelling is massively important and Love Knot is at the top in these departments 5) their command of lighting is masterful After working with the team, we found our first impressions to be accurate, as our expectations were met and exceeded. Love Knot Photography is definitely the best choice.

I care deeply about skin tones looking true to life, and my edit is centered around that.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you're looking for a photographer who will exceed your expectations and deliver timeless, breathtaking photos, look no further than Ashley. Her attention to detail and passion for capturing the perfect shot truly sets her apart. From the beginning, Ashley was a pleasure to work with, making communication effortless and stress-free. She took the time to understand our vision and preferences, and her creativity and expertise shone through in every frame. She took the time to learn the names of our wedding party and immediate family. It really made them feel important as well as showed her commitment to us having an easy stress-free day! Ashley's ability to capture candid moments is truly remarkable. She has a keen eye for those special, unplanned moments that truly reflect the emotions and atmosphere of our wedding day. Looking through the photos, we were transported back to those heartfelt, joyous moments, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We also had the pleasure of having Ashely do our engagement and welcome party pictures. The smiles, excitement and love were all perfectly captured in pictures we will have forever. Not only did Ashley deliver outstanding candid shots, but her overall quality of work was exceptional. The composition, lighting, and attention to detail in every photograph were simply stunning. The reason for that is due to her incredible work ethic. She was a huge part of our timeline planning to ensure we got all the pictures we wanted from our shot wish list. After shooting a long wedding day, she was able to provide sneak peaks the day after our wedding for us to reminisce the day after! The happy tears remembering how amazing our wedding day was. We can’t say enough about how talented she is! Working with Ashley was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. She was professional, communicative, and went above and beyond to ensure we felt comfortable in front of the camera. Her calming presence and ability to make everyone feel at ease allowed us to relax and enjoy our day while she captured the magic unfolding. We are so grateful we were able to book Ashley and can’t wait for future events to work with her again!

Eli Holmes Photo + Film

2.0

Block Island, RI
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves San Leandro, CA

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 My name is Andris Dzeguze I am a creative eye behind Dzen Documentary. I discovered my passion for photography in my grandfather's darkroom, and it has been an integral part of my identity. The ability to freeze moments in time and craft visual stories with light has captivated me for a long time. In my portfolio, you'll uncover what sets me apart: Showcased in publications such as Vanity Fair and Wall Street Journal Magazine. Featured photographer at NYC Fashion Week. Serving as a brand ambassador for a renowned camera brand. Engaged in impactful documentary art projects. Capturing the essence of weddings across the United States.

Andris did a truly incredible job shooting our intimate wedding at the Seattle courthouse in November. We cannot speak highly enough of the level of professionalism and coordination he provided our small group - from ensuring we arrived at the right time to capture the best possible light to making our typically photo-avoidant families comfortable and at ease. Our expectations of the photos we would get in a government building for a wedding ceremony were blown out of the water when we received our final gallery from Andris. He was a key part of our wedding day and we cannot thank him enough.

Photography is deeply embedded in my past.

I bring positive energy, and connect with and delight your guests and vendors. I have photographed in destinations as distant as India, Paris, London, Aspen, Mexico, New York, Los Angeles, North Carolina, even a wedding on a cruise ship! But, San Francisco is the city I know like the back of my hand – a city that I believe is the best photo studio in the world. I am an expert San Francisco City Hall wedding photographer.

Sasha is wonderful to work with and a creative genius when it came to capturing our special day. He knew how to work all the right angles and find the perfect lighting. The weather rapidly changed the day we were shooting so we had to suddenly switch locations. Sasha was extremely patient and quick to find a new location in San Francisco. He was able to beautifully capture our love for one another in the city where we were first met. Our photos turned out better than we could have ever imagined. Trusting him throughout the process and letting him work his magic with his creative energy was fun and we were blown away by the results. Highly recommend Sasha and look forward to working with him again!

My focus is on seamless storytelling that highlights beauty and brings the spirit of the event into every detail. I’m inspired by connection and absolutely love photographing weddings.

I have an eye for charm, humor, and the little things that make someone look drop dead gorgeous. I capture you in your best light and bring you back to these magic moments for years to come.

Tiana did an amazing job capturing our spring festival-style wedding! My partner and I felt at ease with her calm and fun energy on what could have been a really stressful day. We had 200 guests, and her and her lovely team captured many more precious moments throughout the day. We LOVED the way the photos turned out, too! We got a sneak peak within a week of the wedding, and then the rest of the 1200 photos 6 weeks later. I can’t recommend Tiana enough - she’s the best!

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

I was raised north of San Francisco in beautiful West Sonoma County. My wife and I moved back home after living in Oakland for a number of years, and are now raising our daughter in the home my wife grew up in - it's magical. I love finding new places to photograph in Sonoma County and beyond, and I love making new memories in the familiar places I know so well. Weddings make me giddy, and I can't get enough of that feeling. Besides photographing weddings and spending time with my family, I'm also a lecturer in photography at CSU East Bay. Teaching what I love is a true gift, and I'm grateful for this opportunity to share with my students.

Hire Zack!! Best decision I made throughout the wedding planning process. He shot our engagement shoot entirely on film, and our wedding on film and digital. He perfectly captured the vibe of the wedding. I knew he would deliver, but now being in receipt of these photos, I am in awe. He was able to capture the intimate, quiet moments, alongside the celebratory, lively moments. I loved the portraits he took of our friends and family (during the ceremony, listening to speeches, etc.), and the shots from the cocktail hour mingling and late night dancing. You can really feel the energy and love in his photos. Our wedding ended up running late (surprise), and we only had an hour to dance. Zack's contracted time ended before the dancing even started. He checked in with me, told me he was going to stay to capture the dancing, and head out after. This speaks volumes!! He is so thoughtful and just an all around great guy. The day of the wedding felt like a blur - a warm glow of love. Zack's photographs allow me to revisit this day with such clear, joyful memories, and I'm forever grateful.

I am writing this review wayyyy too late (over 2 years after my engagement photos were taken) and it has been eating me away inside because I need to give Betsy all the love and praise she deserves. Betsy photographed our engagement photos and would have done our wedding as well if she wasn’t already booked. As a wedding planner myself, I had worked with Betsy previously and she was always so fun, easy to work with and matched my energy on every level! She gets so excited when she knows she is ‘getting the shot’ that you can’t help but get excited too. I had a very specific vision for our engagement photos and she was 100% on board to make it happen. I love the photos so much and will treasure them forever as they document a very exciting time in our lives. I absolutely love working with Betsy and will definitely be booking her again in the future!

Rebecca is everything you want in a photographer, she is so so talented and really does amazing work!! Leading up to the wedding day she helped us plan every detail of what our timeline should be as well as plan out every single photo / detail we want photographed. It really helped us plan out our day with other vendors and getting ready times, and made us feel so comfortable not one photo would be missed. The day of she got every single shot we wanted (including a few very large family photos!) and her and her assistant were such a delight to be with all day. She is so great at getting natural looking pictures and nothing looking too forced or posed, and her editing is so amazing. She sent teasers within a few days and the rest of the images in a few weeks and we were blown away by them all!! I would highly recommend her to anyone!!

I prioritize unscripted moments, such as the reaction of your spouse as you walk up the aisle, the inside joke that makes you break out in laughter or the tears as your loved ones share thoughtful memories during toasts. These intimate details hold immense significance to me. As your photographer, I bring a heartfelt and genuine perspective, ensuring that your wedding day is portrayed in a way that truly reflects you and preserves the memories you'll cherish forever.

So there’s no “I” in team right?! While Captured Couture is the product of years of hard work that I built from the ground up. I have an amazing team because sometimes takes more than just me. For larger events or on occasions when I am already booked one of my team members will gladly assist with your event. We’ve covered hundreds of weddings together, and have refined our editing style and way of shooting to be completely consistent. You won’t be able to tell the difference. Pinky promise! No matter where you’re planning from when it clicks, it clicks.

I have to say that Jennifer and her assistant will forever be our Wedding Day Heroes. They arrived on time, they were professional from start to finish, and so kind to me and my family. I'm pretty sure they overheard my wedding day meltdown (I hope not) but they kept on pushing and made the whole day feel special. We didn't have a wedding party and I totally forgot about bustling my gown so Jennifer and her assistant got down on their hands and knees in the blistering heat in the Garden of my ceremony site and bustled my 15 button bustle. #weddinddayheros! At the reception they sat amongst our friends and family and fit right in. It was awesome. Their presence was so seamless, they are so genuine. If you feel like you might need a wedding day hero Jennifer and Captured Couture is definitely the way to go. She was able to provide us with a site with specific pictures of our choosing to share with out guest via a secure link. Our pictures came out beautifully. The album and metal prints we also gorgeous. Great quality. ENGAGEMENT SESSION/INITIAL MEETING REVIEW Jennifer is amazing. My partner and I discovered Captured Couture by looking for photographers who had done wedding at our venue (The Whitney-Detroit) and we couldn't be more excited to have Jennifer capture our wedding day. Jennifer is the best and I can't stress that enough. WE are having a small/intimate wedding and she came prepared with different packages to offer us based on what we asked for and our budget. We saw some of her work at our first meeting and her work was really good-a lot better than other work we'd seen from other photographers. My fiance, who is usually a hard sell, was sold on having Jennifer as our wedding photographer and so was I. During the next few months we worked with Jennifer to schedule our engagement session. We are very busy, and the weather was not working with us but luckily Jennifer was very accommodating. Our engagement shoot went off without a hitch. My partner and I are kind of camera shy but Jennifer made us feel like naturals and our pictures came out great. Before we left the shoot she showed us one of the pictures and we were in amazed at how incredible the picture looked. Jennifer is the BOMB.COM

Although it was so dang hot on our wedding day, he was constantly moving and working like a silent camera ninja. I've seen their family photo shoots and would absolutely recommend them to families as well! I'm so grateful for Poppy & Hive and will forever cherish our photos.

Hi I’m Taylor Anne! She/her! I’m a published editorial fashion and wedding photographer based out of Dallas, Texas! I knew for certain that I wanted to be a photographer on a trip to Paris with my mom in 2005. I had a small little point and shoot digital camera that I used to take photos of literally everything around the city. I got artistic with the sunset over the Seine, and caught a couple having a romantic moment on the bridge. It was then that I said to myself, “Oh, I actually kind of like this,” and began the process of photographing for the next 16 years.

I hired Taylor for all of my wedding photography! Our engagement photos, Mehndi, Henna & wedding day. Not only did all of our photos come out STUNNING, she made the experience so comfortable! She just fit right in with everyone and even joined in on the dance floor! She also made sure to get all the shots I wanted! Taylor made our special day all the more special.

Booking Rachel Stenger was one of the best vendor decisions that my husband and I made for our wedding day. Even from the first meeting we had with Rachel, she has such a calming and warm presence which we knew was what we would need the day of. She has such a unique way of photographing and capturing moments that make her so special and unlike a lot of other wedding photographers we met with. We did an engagement session with her and she made us feel so at ease, like most couples we're not naturally in front of the camera but she was able to easily talk us through poses throughout the session. We had a call the month of to discuss details with her - e.i, timeline, shot list, etc. This was a great call because it helped all of us get on the same page for day of. Forwarding to the wedding day - Rachel arrived early to start on capturing details. She helped us stay on-time during getting ready and first look since my DoC was at the venue setting up. She was able to capture SO many images throughout the day from getting ready all the way to the dance floor. Aside from the staged/traditional photos you'd expect from the wedding, she captured so many beautiful candid moments. She moved in SILENCE, I truly didn't see her for most of the day (in a good way!) yet we ended up with 750 images in the 7 hrs we hired her for. She captured everything and more. When we finally got the full album - my husband and I spent had an amazing 2 hours reliving every single moment! She blew us away and we were not prepared by how beautifully she captured the day - all of the details, the emotions, and the aesthetics, were EVERYTHING! Her talent is remarkable and we couldn't have asked for anything more. I'd recommend her to anyone - in fact, I already have a friend that's hired her for their day.

I like to think of myself as a lil bit southern, lil bit punk, and a whole lotta rock-n-roll. I’m a PBR lover, hardcore show corner dweller, disco ball queen. You’re going to hear me say, “hell yeah, brother” more than twice, Dale Earnhardt is an icon, and Dolly Parton is royalty. You'll love me if you're a little trashy, always classy, badass, sometimes chic, forever romantic. Unwedding, editorial, nontraditional, offbeat, colorful, joyful, film-inspired, and disco vibes always. If you like, I'll wear a rainbow suit, I'll definitely dance with your mom, and I will always be a champion for you and your lover.

Kathleen is AMAZING. She did our engagement photos and I cannot speak highly enough. She was so cool to work with, had a great eye for location, and was so fantastic with coordinating our forever-awkward selves to get some incredible shots. We both get very anxious on camera but she made the whole experience so safe and welcoming that we ended up having a so much fun. Her communication throughout has been absolute top tier - we knew exactly what to expect every step of the way - and the end result is beyond our wildest dreams. 10/10, cannot recommend her enough and can’t wait to work with her again in the future!
