Aladdin Films team was a great to work with. We hired them for our engagement photos, photography, and video for our wedding. We had noticed their work from various friends. From our initial meeting with them, we knew they were professional and easy to work with. Their portfolio of work assured us that they would capture our special day in the right light. They were easy to reach by email and replied quickly whenever we had questions. On the day of the wedding, the team was fully prepared for the long day of more than 12 hours of work. The team kept it light and fun but at the same time working together to capture the day while continuously looking to outdo each other creatively. Their attention to detail was impeccable. We have only received teasers at this point and looking forward to seeing more but we know they will be great. Many of our friends viewed the photo teasers and all were blown away. As one of our friends stated, "literally the most professional catalogue worthy wedding pics I've seen". We would highly recommend Aladdin Films. They not only did a great job capturing our personalities but also became a part of our special day.

Randall de Leon Photography

5.0

Los Angeles, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

Our family has had the distinct opportunity to work with Randall on several occasions. He is professional, patient, flexible, adaptable, and easy to work with. He knows his craft and stand out among other photographers. Randall is always punctual and prepared for his engagements. He is very time efficient, but will respect your time all while ensuring the best possible outcome and experience. During our engagement shoot, it began raining unexpectedly. Randall remained poised, professional, and was already “over-prepared” for the situation. Needless to say, our experience and shoot that day was not only memorable, but exceptional.

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

Awarded Best of Zola
Adam is an exceptionally professional, flexible, and organized individual. He brings an incredible amount of expertise to the table, quelling any potential feelings of unease, discomfort, or anxiety pertaining to photography - especially when it comes to big events. We can only begin to describe how fortunate we are to have had Adam's support and guidance for our engagement and for our wedding. Beyond our gratitude for his amazing work, we felt as if he was fully engaged in our wedding festivities from start to finish, and are truly appreciative of this. Many of our friends and family noted how immersed he and his assistant were throughout the entirety of our special evening, adding tremendously to the environment in a positive manner. At the time of the writing of this review, we can see that Adam's profile is exclusively comprised of five-star ratings, and we can attest to the fact that he deserves every single one of those, if not more. If you are in the search for a kind, knowledgeable, and elite professional - someone who will take your once-in-a-lifetime experience and immortalize it in a priceless fashion - then look no further.

Carmen, you are absolutely amazing and phenomenal! It's been 2 months, and every time we look at the photos, we're right back to our dreamy destination wedding, reliving each precious moment you captured! Working with you was such a breeze right from the start. You're not just super professional but also have this magical way of really getting what we wanted, making sure every moment that mattered to us was caught perfectly. Our wedding in Cancun was picture-perfect, and even though it was your first time there, you explored the venue like a pro, finding all those gorgeous spots for our photos. Throughout the whole celebration, my partner and I just soaked up every minute, never having to worry about where you were or if you were capturing everything – we just knew you had it covered... and oh girl, you really did! Seeing the photos, I was just blown away. You caught every single emotion, the big, joyful moments and those quiet, intimate ones that mean so much. The way you paid attention to every little detail, catching the sweet looks and the outbursts of laughter, it’s just incredible! You’ve got this special talent for not just taking pictures, but telling our unique love story through your lens. And the photos, oh, they’re more than we ever hoped for! They’re like little pieces of art that show who we are together, and every time we look at them, we fall in love with them (and each other!) all over again. Carmen and your amazing team, a gigantic thank you for playing such a huge part in our wedding. You captured the essence of our celebration with so much love. We’re beyond thankful for your incredible talent and the unforgettable memories you’ve gifted us to hold onto forever.

Stephen Tang Photo

5.0

Pasadena, CA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,100

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

Awarded Best of Zola
Stephen's style is making candids look very good. I have an issue where I don't "smeyes" (smile with my eyes) and my smile goes flat very easily. He is easy going and gently guides you in the photos so you don't feel forced or uncomfortable. And really, he is able to seamlessly capture you in the moment. I am happy I will be able to cherish those genuine moments he was able to capture for me and my husband. In addition, the standard posed photos were awesome as well. He was organized and straightforward, which I value in a time sensitive event like a wedding. All-in-all A+ for this guy.

I cannot give high enough praise to Gabbi and her assistant Nick. Our other photographer backed out last minuet and we are SO lucky that Gabbi was available.

I'm a CA based and travel wedding photographer. I've photographed almost 200 weddings, and every single one goes by so quickly. I love my job because even though the day goes by fast, I get to find and capture those small moments, sometimes just a fraction of a second long, so they can be relived over and over in photographs. 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

Long Beach, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,600

Photography is my creative dream come true and it is so incredibly special to be able to capture memories that other people will love and cherish for many, many years. Around high school, I found out for myself how important these memories were. Not just the ones I was creating currently but the ones that I couldn’t get back. I would look back on these photos and think, "I remember how happy I was that day." "Aww, my little brother was so tiny then!" Or even, "What was I thinking when I wore that outfit??" These little snippets of time carried such a significance for me that I wanted other people to feel that way about their memories, too.

My wife and I had an intimate destination wedding in New Orleans and Amanda was an absolute blessing for us! She arrived in a city that she had never been in and made our wedding photos look like they were shot by someone who had lived there their whole life. New Orleans is like a second home to me and she found locations to shoot that I didn’t even know about. I was was very nervous on the big day and Amanda put me at ease, made everyone laugh, and blended in like a member of the family. She went above and beyond in creating images and photo opportunities that went above my highest expectations. One of my favorite was images from that day is a photo of my wife and me while we waited for the St Charles streetcar to take us from Audubon Park to our reception. The streetcars had stopped running for a while and Amanda saw this gorgeous ray of golden light hit this solitary stone bench. Amanda said, “quick!” and had run over, sit down, look Into each other’s eyes while seated there on the bench. The lighting was tremendous and it captured our love perfectly. Thank you Amanda for not only capturing our wedding, but for capturing our personalities, our style, and our love for one another! You are the best!

I set my mind and soul to this craft about 5 years ago and my heart just grew with every couple I met and every story I learned and told through my favorite medium of photography. It is the absolute best feeling being able to photograph the genuine love and happiness a couple expels through their wedding day. Nothing can beat the emotions and the charm of that. It's an honor to be able to translate those emotions onto images so people can look back through them and get back those feelings years and decades later.

Magaly's work caught my eye because of its vibrant and colorful nature and her final product truly delivered on this! I was also drawn to the personality of her website and she just looked like a fun person to spend time with. What impressed me the most was the amount of effort she put into researching the location we wanted. I told her I wanted murals at ROW DTLA and she came back with a map of all the murals there (without having ever been there herself)! I was super thrilled with the amount of prep and planning that she did, and it made the whole session go so smoothly. Magaly was so lovely and easy to work with - it felt like hanging out with a friend and we had such a blast.

We worked with Nicole for our engagement photos in 2019, and then booked her for our wedding in November 2020, which ended up being postponed to November 2021. Nicole was THE BEST to work with. She was always super responsive on email when I had questions or requests. On the day of the wedding, Nicole and her second shooter were literally a dream. They were so low key and chill, which is exactly what I needed in that stressful situation. Nicole was super perceptive to my personality and mood, and she could tell when I was ready to move on from a certain shot or group. Our entire wedding party and families loved working with her! She sent our preview pics so quickly, and honestly there are so many amazing pictures included! I can't imagine what the full albums will be like!

Your experience with me starts long before you step in front of my lens. I take the time and energy to get to know you & your story, so that I can capture the parts of your relationship that are authentically YOU. So that you can look back on the photos from this season of life, and feel like you're right back in that moment, feeling those same feels. To me, a perfectly posed & still photograph doesn't capture a feeling the way that a candid one can. I direct my couples to create images that are full of movement and those intimate in-between moments.

I knew I was in great hands with Shelby the moment we first met! Working with Shelby as a fellow vendor has been nothing short of a seamless experience. She loves connecting with her couples on a personal level and makes her shoots interactive so that the couples feel comfortable and confident on camera. She has little tricks up her sleeve that creates super candid moments!! I trust her fully when I recommend her as a planner. Her attention to detail and eye for the perfect lighting make photographing with Shelby a breeze. Hire Shelby to photograph your wedding, maternity shoot, branding shoot, and more!

My family used to complain about the 100's of pictures I captured and how many rolls of film I used. Now, I look back at pictures from 10+ years ago, and see the beauty of "stopping time" in photos and keeping them forever. I see how it brings happiness to the people around me and myself. Nothing makes me happier than people looking back at precious memories. I can't wait to extend this experience to you and create an everlasting memory that you can carry for years to follow.

Sarai was great! and loved her team! I recommend Sarai to photograph your wedding. We had a great time with her and the process was great. She kept answering our questions and helped us plan a realistic wedding photo timeline and was a great help with our outfit choices for our engagement.

My husband and I worked alongside Joey at a wedding a few years back. We were the videography team for the day so we were able to have an in-depth view of Joey's work as a photographer. He was very thorough, professional, and personable throughout the entire day. He ran his ideas for the overall plan for the day by not only us, but the clients and other vendors to make sure all of our expectations were met. The ceremony took place in a church and Joey was very respectful of the rules in place. The wedding day was unseasonably hot, even for July in the South, but Joey kept a smile on his face and a good attitude throughout the entire day.

Photographing weddings has truly been my dream job, and I feel so honored every time I'm invited to capture intimate moments in peoples’ lives.

Awarded Best of Zola
Brittney is a gem of a photographer and a shining star of a person. She captured our wedding more beautifully than either of us could have imagined or wished for. Being photographed by her feels like hanging out with your chillest, most talented friend, who knows how to work ALL your angles. Aside from being talented and kind, she radiates the coolest, most calming vibes throughout every situation. We shot our engagement photos outside on a cold, rainy day and somehow Brittney managed to make us feel like it was warm and sunny. Throughout the course of our wedding day, she kept us calm and on schedule, making everything feel like an effortless breeze. But Brittney is so much more than a photographer. Even in the time leading up to our wedding, she was there to answer all questions and give suggestions about everything wedding related. She answers her e-mails so promptly and comprehensively, and is always willing to jump on the phone to talk it out. Brittney provided so much priceless guidance when we didn't know who else to look to. Ultimately, Brittney is the full package. I'd say triple threat, but she's much more than that. She's not only a really good photographer, but she's a really good person. TLDR; Hire Brittney, it'll be the best wedding decision you make (aside from marrying your spouse, I guess).

Since then, I have had the honor of photographing people from all over the world. If you're looking for a photographer, find someone whose work you love, but as important is their personality and the energy they'll bring to your special day. Feel free to contact me for more information. I'll be happy to help!

Gui was excellent to work with. He photographed our wedding ceremony and reception June 10, 2023 in Los Angeles. He was very professional from the start... and a pleasure to work with. He helped during the planning phase, understood what we were looking for in terms of photos and photo style, and was kind and warm to our friends and family on the day of the event. His price was good (we shopped around). He was on time and on budget the day of the event, and super prompt (early) providing our photos to us. I originally chose him as our photographer because I liked how his portfolio showcased his talent at capturing the emotion of the day. Our wedding photos have this same quality and we are really happy with the pictures. We were very happy with him all around. I am so glad we chose him. A great guy to work with!

We greatly appreciated his commitment to do his job in the best possible way he can. He is truly talented with his ideas and we absolutely love that there is not this unrealistic editing. I think another great thing he does it he kind of just flows and camouflages as you don’t really realize he’s there but the photos show that he was definitely capturing moments that you may not have noticed, but will be so grateful to see. It’s very natural. It’s very nice . He was awesome, he even stayed a tad past his allotted leaving time at my wedding to make sure that he got the best shots for us . It was very easy with him very laxed and didn’t feel. like a stranger from the beginning, it was very comfortable and I knew that he was the perfect person to choose I highly recommend Michael services for any photo session you require.

Aside from their obviously gorgeous work, we chose them because their vibe is so down to earth, comforting, and fun. During the two parties, they were efficient and blended right in with our guests so all of our pictures felt organic, which was important to us. We opted to do half on film, half on digital and were completely speechless at how it all turned out. The cherry on top was how quickly we got our pictures back: we got the email one month after our wedding while we were on our honeymoon! So special to relive that day in that setting, and we were so impressed with that turnaround. We already know we'll be hiring this team down the road once we start a family.

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

Her turn around time for images is like no other. The generosity of what she pours into her craft and service is admirable! Kristina is both professional and playful which clients love and trust!

I am a documentary wedding photographer -- I'm all about capturing real moments. In my photographs, I’m always shooting with an eye for color, light, and dynamic shadows. I integrate these technical aspects with my background in film, literature and storytelling so with every wedding, I create a series of documentary photos that recreates the authentic narrative of a day. I’m always chasing the candid, the emotional, even the un-noticed everyday details; things that make you do a double take, little moments that make your heart swell.

Awarded Best of Zola
We approached Rebecca for her photojournalistic photography, something we explicitly wanted in our wedding because we wanted those natural moments captured without looking awkward, and she astonished us by capturing so many sentimental and hilarious parts throughout our wedding. From framing to editing, the photos turned out fantastic and we love them so much! You can see raw emotion, joy, and amazement throughout them. She truly captured the feelings of the day without making us feel overly posed and orchestrated; she made it all feel natural and sometimes even seemed to disappear out of sight (although the photos prove she was there all along).

Awarded Best of Zola
Tiffany is a not only an outstanding photographer but she is a genuinely kind human. I have been fortunate enough to work with Tiffany on other weddings & photoshoots (I’m a Makeup Artist) so I had no doubt that she would be shooting our wedding! She is extremely professional and always responded to questions in a timely matter. I already knew how efficient Tiffany is so I went into the day with such comfort, and I can assure you she will do the same for you! I almost feel like she was even my planner, since she had made the timeline for the day and stuck to it. We did our engagement session with Tiffany which was a great way to become more comfortable in front of the camera and learn some poses for the wedding day, she even took some good shots of our dog for our engagement session. Our wedding was a destination that was about 5 hours form LA and she was more than happy to travel. She was able to capture EVERY moment. Tiffany was great at keeping everything on time and controlled. One of the things that sets Tiffany apart form other wedding photographer’s is that her images do not look over-edited or trend based. She has a very classic and bright style of photography and looking back at all of our images years from now I know we will not be disappointed. We are so thankful for her capturing every moment from a day that goes by so quick! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Tiffany J Photography!

I live in Long Beach with my husband, and our beautiful dog-daughter Rita. If I'm not photographing my incredible clients, I'm watching any entertainment I can, from the latest HBO shows or movie releases. But, there's nothing better than drinking a beer and laughing at some quality reality television if you ask me! I also love reading while drinking coffee in the morning, but nothing tops hanging with my friends and family, enjoying some drinks and sharing some laughs.

My Fiancé and I got the chance to work with Kathy for our engagement pictures at Disneyland! It was extremely hot that day and super crowded, but that never even phased her. I was so impressed with her ideas of capturing us together. She has so much patience to take the time to capture the shot just right before we went on to the next site. We received our pictures in a week and we love them all, it’s extremely hard to just pick one as our favorite! Currently she offers custom albums what we can’t wait to order and have forever! We loved working with Kathy and can’t wait to see her at our wedding!

Hi you guys, my name's Natalie, & I'm so glad you're here! I’m a joy-filled, Southern California surfer girl who is in love with capturing weddings.  My style? It’s timeless, romantic, adventuresome, & personal. I’m dedicated to capturing fine elegance + raw beauty all the while keeping it real + being authentic. Your job is to be in love & live in that excitement with each other. My job is to make it easy + enjoyable for you two to be yourselves, 100%, as I frame and capture those once-in-a-lifetime moments in a way that only my mind can. Congratulations to you both! Looking forward to getting to know each other! xx Natalie

Natalie is the most professional, genuine, and talented wedding photographer. I promise you that you cannot and simply will not find a lovelier, more generous, or more brilliant person to help you sidestep stress and make the wedding planning process and wedding day a joy. At our wedding, three different people asked me if I'd later share her contact information with them for whenever they got married. Just think about that for a moment: three people were so blown away by Natalie's warmth, energy, and beautiful, bubbly personality that they would hire her on the spot without having yet seen her stunning work and even though they weren't engaged. Natalie's smile brightens up an entire room, and she has a truly remarkable way of making everyone feel relaxed and comfortable. She'll make you laugh, she'll keep your energy up, she'll capture the moments you dreamed would one day hang on your walls, and most of all, she will make you feel like your day, your marriage, and your love are the center of the entire world. This gift of her presence and love is extraordinary, and I promise you that it extends beyond anything you could ever hope or expect to receive from any wedding vendor. I cried when she sent us our photos because they are so profoundly beautiful and so full of the true emotion that she naturally drew from even the most reserved of our family members. Every photo was so natural and full of light and joy. Natalie has so much talent, and if you're one of her brides you'll quickly realize how lucky you are to have someone care so deeply about you and about capturing your special day. Before our wedding, Natalie spoke with me over email and on the phone, sent a thoughtful questionnaire to help us articulate our aesthetic and photography hopes, sent a quick engagement gift, and even checked in over text to make sure I was doing well the week before the wedding. After the wedding, she sent cute thank you gifts and GORGEOUS photos (you will love yours too!). But my favorite memory will always be from our wedding day when she took a moment to dance with my shy 5 year old nephew and draw him out of his shell so he could enjoy the party. The huge smile on his face will always be one of my most precious moments of our wedding day. My nephew, like so many of our guests, still ask about Natalie all the time. It was a pleasure to work with Natalie and to get to know her, and I hope you too will be fortunate to experience Natalie's light, love, and unparalleled talent.

Ayyy it’s ya girl Tida (like pita)! I’m not just another photographer – I’m your hype girl, your ally, your eyes and your ears on your wedding day. I’ll be there freaking out shouting “YASSS OMG HOT FIRE ALERT” hyping you up during portraits because holy-shit you look amazing AF! I’ll be dancing circles around your guests while I shove my camera in their faces, fixing your hair when the wind gets too cray, and confidently (and loudly) directing your family portrait time. I’m a tiny ball of giant energy and gurl, it shows on your wedding day – TRUST.

Tida shot our engagement and our Palm Springs wedding at Korakia Pensione! I absolutely adore her! My husband and I were somewhat nervous about the process and worried that it would be awkward...it proved to be anything but. Tida put us both at ease and had us laughing and relaxed out of the gate. So many people commented on how genuinely happy we looked in our photos and honestly it had a lot to do with Tida making us laugh with each other. The photos turned out beautifully, her aesthetic is very natural, never staged, and I really appreciate how much care she put into all the editing. Everyone comments on how great our photos are. She really loves what she does. I’d hire her again in a heartbeat!

I'm admittedly wary when it comes to the Wedding Industry and all of it's bells/whistles/expectations, and at the same time, I believe wholeheartedly in the power of community, love, commitment, and collective joy. I think that weddings-- in all of their forms and reclamations-- ultimately serve a great purpose in reminding us of these gifts. I come from a long line of meticulous documenters and hold a degree in Sociology, all of which informs the way I approach photography. I am curious about people, am in awe of the display of emotion, and am passionate about the ways in which we construct family and community.

Kenzie is an incredible photographer and story teller. I am so grateful we found here. We used her for our wedding and photos when our kid was 6 months old. Would 100% recommend her to others and would use her again. Her photos are thoughtful, stunning, and help me remember specific parts of our wedding now years later.

My name is Jonathan Moore. I am a Los Angeles based wedding photographer and available worldwide. I'll get right to it: The very last thing I want is for you to think of your experience with me as a "photoshoot." I think that posed "prom" photos are totally lame and reflect absolutely nothing unique about you or your partner. After all, you are not actors pretending to be "in love," so why should your images reflect that? At the core, your images should ultimately remind you of why you fell in love in the first place. This is what we're celebrating!

Working with Jonathan was awesome! Communication was easy and we met with him and did a tour of the venue to align on exactly what we wanted. He was super helpful on the day but didn’t get in the way at all! The photos were absolutely amazing, we seriously couldn’t be happier with the output. He really captured who we are and how we feel About each other without any awkward posing which I personally hate lol. Thanks so much!!!

I do not enjoy having my photo taken - at all - and it was so easy to relax and be myself that day. Michael got incredible photos of our wedding, and we could not be happier with the outcome.

And as a planner, I felt at ease as communication was easy and thorough during the planning process and on the wedding day allowing for a structured day so we can get the best photos possible for everyone.

The kind of work I do within the wedding photography genre is very distinct - every image stands on its own as a thoughtful composition as if from a cinematic art house film or high-end commercial/editorial shoot. My color grading is immediately identifiable and unique - developed through years of studying color theory - uncommon today in a sea of 'presets' that other photographers purchase on the internet for they have no knowledge of how to build their own. My compositions are often quirky, surprising, different. I always attempt to show a point of view that's uncommon and fascinating to the viewer.

Her photos were the perfect marriage of whimsical, light, airy but poetic & deeply romantic at the same time. The vibe I could see on the walls of my home for years to come. She did our engagement photos in Joshua Tree, after scouting the park on her own all day one day, to make sure the location was exactly what we wanted. We trusted her vision immensely! Not only was that day a blast, the end results were seriously everything we wanted & more. Fast forward to our Wedding, September 30th, 2023. An absolute dream of a day. Michelle completely conquered that day. She was so great at directing every situation to get the perfect shots.

Hi! I'm Hannah, your So Cal (but traveling) elopement and intimate wedding photographer! I'm so glad you're here. My photography style is a documentary/natural photographer. This means I'm more about documenting your moments and helping you create genuine smiles/moments in photos, opposed to just posing you, i want you to dance and have fun, snuggle into your partner and get those intimate moments. (I'll of course help you figure out what to do with your hands, because lets me honest, even I don't know what to do with my hands in photos. Haha) I love traveling, I love adventure, and I love making friends out of my clients.

Having Hannah as our wedding photographer was easily the greatest decision we made! Hannah was incredibly professional, kind, informative, easy to work with, easy to talk to, great communicator, and listened to all our needs. My husband and I are very awkward and uncomfortable when it comes to taking photos (taking professional photos was a new thing for us) and Hannah made sure we were comfortable from start to finish. By the time the wedding came around we knew exactly what to do thanks to her easy to follow tips, tricks, advice and guidance. Hannah captured our wedding beautifully, and we are forever grateful for her. We will be going to her for our future events and highly recommend her to everyone.

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

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

Jonathan and Elisabeth were so incredible to work with! I got married in November 2019 and Jonathan was my lead photographer - he has an incredible eye for detail. Before each picture he made sure my hair looked perfect and was even asking people to take things out of their pockets so they didn’t show in the pictures. Before my wedding I had concerns that there would not be enough lighting during the reception and I should never have worried, Jonathan made sure all photos were naturally lit and looked gorgeous. I continuously get compliments on my pictures. I searched so long to find the perfect photographer and I am so happy I found Jonathan and Elisabeth!

Her work is INCREDIBLE and her prices are more than reasonable (we’re starving grad students and Melissa didn’t make us feel like we were gonna have to sell a kidney to pay for her). Her work is beautiful, she’s fun and sweet and I had a great, no pressure, sweet time with her while she photographed our wedding.

I believe the best photos occur when... artistry and intentionality meet moments of heartfelt connection. I'll guide you towards the dreamiest light and offer unobtrusive direction that lends to natural movements and sincere emotion. I also slow things down and help re-center everyone, creating space for beautiful moments to unfold, like mom fluffing your veil, dad's expression when he sees you all dressed up, and fleeting looks between you and your partner.

Elyana is so easy going and fun. She will be a calming presence on your big day, but will also know when to gently take control to keep the schedule going. She knows how to capture images filled with beautiful light and a lot of emotions. When I look back at my wedding images, they really feel like us. They don't look forced or overly posed. I feel like they really capture our spirits, so to speak. This kind of photography doesn't just require technical skills, but that's when the true artistry kicks in, and this is what sets Elyana apart. We'd choose her again any day!

I'm Becca, a midwest transplant in Los Angeles (yes, one of those people), wife/homebody, Christian, and newfound happy plant lady. My day is made whenever I see a cat, I cycle through re-watch binges of my favorite shows constantly, and I always have something home-baked on hand in my kitchen. I’m pretty used to third-wheeling it and am excited to be any couple’s wedding day companion and new lifelong friend & coffee date!

My husband and I absolutely loved having Becca as our videographer! I could not recommend here more! We were referred to her by our photographer and were so happy with the decision to use her! Prior to hiring her we met for coffee and immediately felt like she understood our vision for the video. She was so detailed in her preparation for our wedding and made us feel so at ease on the day of. Going into our wedding day, the idea of a camera following you was intimidating. We were worried we would be so focused on the fact that she was catching our every move but when our wedding day came it was the complete opposite. She did an incredible job of catching the perfect moments and really showing our love without it looking forced or staged. The way she shoots is incredible – she captures the perfect natural light and the love and excitement you feel on your wedding day. She even ended up having a drone on which we did not expect and were so excited about! Following our Saturday wedding, we received a teaser of our wedding video on Tuesday morning and were overjoyed with excitement! It truly was everything we dreamed about and so much more! I think we’ve watched it at least twice a day since our wedding! I could not recommend Becca more!

We are Sienna plus Josh, adventure elopement photographers [who also eloped!] in 2011 and we have been shooting weddings and adventuring ever since. We are here to help you navigate the path of forging your OWN path. Going the adventure elopement route is intimate, authentic, and empowering...with a day that is truly reflective of your relationship and defines the two of you! One of the best things about eloping is that you get to throw away the rule book and write your own. Whether that is spending your wedding day on a mountaintop in Oregon, among the waterfalls in Iceland, or the warm desert of California.

Sienna and Josh were so helpful with our elopement. They went above and beyond to make the event as fun and easy going as possible. Their suggestions for locations and floral arrangements were perfect! They really helped our elopement plans take shape and made us feel comfortable so we could each our special day to the fullest! They took the time to get to know us and take unique photos that captured the day perfectly. We were very happy with the final result and impressed with the amount of dedication and kindness that they showed to us.

I took up photography at the ripe age of 11 with a Polaroid I borrowed from an aunt. It quickly became my sketchbook as I worked to capture stills of the world and people around me. Those images have continued to pay emotional dividends throughout my life, helping me better understand what I have now come to see through a new scope. They are grounding, melancholic, funny and beautiful. Some of my most cherished possessions.

Hands down the best photographer for your wedding! Thank you Daniel for our memories!

I am a fine art wedding and elopement photographer based out in Los Angeles, CA. I’m passionate about telling love stories through photographs in the most beautiful and meaningful way. Love stories are an infinite source of inspiration to me and I believe that the most magical images are made up of connection, emotion, and light. I wholeheartedly believe that you should live in the moments you want to remember forever and we feel so grateful to have the opportunity to work with such incredible couples who have the same approach to love and values that we share.

I would 10 out of 10 recommend Jennifer to all my friends and family! She is just so sweet and amazing. My husband and I have never done professional photos before and she made it so easy going. She first did out engagement shoot and we had so much fun. We both felt very comfortable in front of the camera. Jennifer is also very punctual. She also shot our elopement in Santa Barbara, we got sneak peaks back that same day ( how amazing, right?) and when we received all the photos about 3-4 weeks later, we were BLOWN away. Looking at the pictures made it feel like we were reliving the moment again, I am so so so happy that I chose to have her do our pictures, they truly are amazing and I cant wait to frame them for my home.

It me! I am your new third wheel, your new childhood friend, your new girl behind the camera! I've been doing this whole living my dream thing for 7 years now and I couldn't be happier! It all started one fall summer night at winters end... totally kidding one day I just said "F-THIS! Photography makes me unbelievably happy, Let's do this!" But my joy is not only from photographing love. It's also because I married the most amazing man on this planet. Leonard is my best friend of 10 years and husband for 7! I still dream about our wedding day and feel like I am always living in that wedding day happiness.

Cindy was a dream photographer to have. She’s so caring, responsive and professional. We had a couple mishaps with the cake and first dance but Cindy knew what to do to fill in the time and what to shift on our timeline which put me at ease on our big day! I would recommend Cindy to everyone because she will honestly be the best photographer you could hire. She checks all the boxes plus her photos, don’t even get me started, I never felt so pretty in life! She captured treasure moments that’ll last forever!

My earliest memories of photography are from when I attended weddings at 5 or 6 years old. I would photograph everyone at these weddings with a small, plastic, film camera and loved every moment. That joy of photography and capturing beauty and love has stayed with me ever since. I have a better camera now, but I still can't wait to capture your love.

Tom did a fantastic job with our engagement shoot. We couldn’t have asked for better. He made us feel super comfortable and was able to capture amazing shots without interrupting our special moment. He gave us so many gorgeous images that we were able to use for our announcements, save-the-dates, and wedding website. He truly went above and beyond.
