Zack McCoy Photography

5.0

Orange, CA
  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves San Diego, CA

Hi there! I'm Zack, a wedding photographer from Orange County, Ca. Ever since I was a young kid studying (and sketching!) bugs in the backyard, I've had a fierce love for the details in the little moments of this crazy life. I got my first "real" camera when I was 12 and was instantly hooked. As I grew, so did my passion and ability to translate those moments into memories. I had the chance to help photograph a wedding when I was 17 and wow! What an experience! That night, I looked through the photos and fell in love. I knew that capturing the moments that would mean something to someone for the rest of their life was where I belonged.

Awarded Best of Zola
Thanks to Zack, my husband and I have pictures that stop time forever. He also made my very shy younger brothers feel comfortable and even helped the 5 year old get his shoes on. Having Zack be our photographer just felt like having more family around on our special day.

Eli Holmes Photo + Film

2.0

Block Island, RI
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves San Diego, 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.

Savannah Rose Photography

Knoxville, TN
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,200
  • Serves San Diego, CA

Hello! I’m Savannah, the photographer behind Savannah Rose Photography. Photography started out as a fun hobby, but when I was 16 I decided to take a film class in high school and that’s when I realized “this is it”. I have been able to be a full time photographer for 8+ years. I love being able to use my passion for art and photography to help you create uniquely beautiful memories that you will enjoy for years to come. I am definitely guilty of being a bit of a perfectionist which ensures that I do everything I can to give you the best photography experience, whether it be portrait session or on your wedding day.

Savannah captured my surprise engagement photos and I couldn't have been more happy with how they turned out. She went above and beyond the entire time and even took time before our shoot to scout out different locations that she thought would work well so we could use all of our time we had with her more efficiently. She also thought of everything and got my fiancé and I a picnic to enjoy as she knew we might be hungry during out shoot and we even utilized that to get some fun photos that are now some of my favorites. She made us feel so comfortable during our time and we loved working with her. Also, she took so many photos and got them back to us insanely quick. She was so amazing that I will be trying to come up with reason to use her again in the future.

Originally from Colombia, I now call California home! At an early I began to take an interest in capturing the world as I saw it, as I followed my passion in photography it has taken me all around the world. I knew this passion was more than a hobby, so I pursued a degree in production photography and after graduating I decided that it was time for me to start fresh here in the United States. Upon moving here I immediately became captivated by helping others capture their most wonderful memories, especially during what might be one of the most important moments in their lives- their wedding!

Stephanie took photos of the food and drinks at my fresh seafood restaurant for promotional material, she was able to highlight our food and unique dine-in a way that was captivating and real.

Newport Beach, CA

Since 2018, I've organically captured intentional connection at weddings. Above all, I want you to walk away from your wedding feeling like you and your new spouse were able to be completely present, immersed in a whirlwind of laughter and dancing and hugs from everyone you love most. Your photos should be a perfect reflection of that. The dream scenario is that you have a wedding photographer who gives off best friend energy and captures the day freely, unreservedly, with all the passion and excitement in the world because photographing love is a genuine pleasure and joy. I have been that person for many and would love to do it for you too.

Awarded Best of Zola
Erin is hands down the absolute best! From the moment we booked her she made every minute of our engagement and wedding feel special and as stress-free as possible. Erin is extremely responsive and professional, but also brings a sense of fun and personalization to the table, which we greatly appreciated. Our engagement and wedding photos are absolutely stunning and we feel very grateful we have these photos to cherish for the rest of our lives. She exceeded all expectations with her perfect combination of candid and classic posed photos. Our families were blown away when they saw our wedding photos- they can't wait to order prints! In addition to her excellent work, Erin herself adds so much positivity and thoughtfulness to the entire experience. Our families and friends fell in love with her and were ecstatic to have her as a part of our intimate wedding. I really can't say enough about Erin's amazing work, level or professionalism and organization, and the amount of kindness and thought she'll put into capturing your entire wedding experience. Our wedding would not have been the same without Erin. We can't wait to book her again to capture our lives' next big adventure!

Hi there! My name is Kelsey and I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a Colorado-based wedding and elopement photographer, and I shoot everywhere from Europe to locally in Denver!

Kelsey was extremely organized and great to work with! Not only did she reach out ahead of time to introduce herself as a fellow vendor at a wedding we both booked, but made absolute magic happen with the flatlays and invitation suite I created for the couple. She also proactively sent me photos, along with a sweet message! I would highly recommend Sunbeam Studio for any bride — I recommend her to all of my couples who ask!

Hello, I am a Northern California and destination wedding photographer that could not possibly love her job anymore! Photography has been a passion of mine since a very young age, my mom was a portrait photographer and after being in front of her camera for too many years I decided to see what the fuss was about and get behind the lens. I launched this business less than a week after graduating from UC Berkeley in 2016. ​

We loved working with Claire! She takes amazing photos and is so easy to work with. Her process and communication leading up to the wedding was so helpful and made us feel confident that she would capture our day perfectly!

I'm a follower of Jesus, adventure lover, wife to Josiah (my husband of four years, personal chef, and favorite weirdo), and dog mom to Solo (the sweetest chihuahua you'll ever meet). When I'm not working, you'll find me with a friend at a coffee shop or curled up at home with a good book or a show; most likely a rom com. I'm a big fan of morning light, cold brew coffee, and dark chocolate anything. My favorite travel destination is the Oregon coast and my perfect day would consist of the beach, hiking, good food, and close friends.

Awarded Best of Zola
Annie captured both our engagement photos and our wedding day and I would chose her over and over again in a heartbeat. Not only is she such a kind, genuine person, her photography talent speaks for itself in her photos. Throughout the entire wedding planning process Annie made herself available to assist in creating a timeline for the day and offering practical suggestions that I never would have thought of. Her experience in wedding days is a tremendous asset in itself! The day of our wedding Annie was a chauffeur for me to our first look, a calm during the whirlwind storm of a wedding day, a giver of several laughs and the person who remembered to grab the rings when leaving for the church. I am so grateful for Annie and her ability to make anyone feel comfortable in front of a camera and I admire the passion and dedication she has towards her clients. I am certain no one would ever regret booking with Annie to capture their special day.

The Honeymooners Productions are a husband and wife duo who are determined to live life like they are on their honeymoon! They specialize in both PHOTO AND VIDEO which simplifies you’re planning process and budget. Their energy for life and love makes them PASSIONATE about your wedding experience! Let's get this party started! Email us about your wedding! We would LOVE to hear alllllllll about your day and your love!

Let me start this off by saying at the top of my lungs - WE LOVE LOVE LOVE THE HONEYMOONERS PRODUCTIONS!! Now that I've gotten that off my chest, here are the reasons why we recommend them to the highest extent: As a lesbian couple it was very important for my wife and I to find a photo & video vendor that was LGBTQ+ friendly. When we asked The Maddie and Luke about that, they instantly made us feel comfortable with their answer. Before the (first) wedding date, they were in constant communication with us and made a point to get to know us well before the big day. Then the pandemic hit, and we had to postpone our wedding. We had already paid our deposit to The Honeymooners and several other vendors. Other vendors were not as kind or accommodating to the change, but The Honeymooners stayed in communication with us through the changes and made it easy. Maddie & Luke had stayed in contact with us throughout, checking in periodically. 1 year later, we had to postpone again due to the on-going pandemic and once again Maddie & Luke took it in stride. They never gave us a reason to worry that they would come through for us. FINALLY, we had our big day. As soon as Maddie and Luke got to the venue it all made sense why we liked them so much. They greeted us like old friends. They were warm, kind, organized, and extremely professional. They just went for it at every step. They just never missed a beat. The few times I asked them to capture a photo of this or a video of that, they had already done it before I even thought of it. Even in how they directed us to pose or activities to capture on camera, it was all perfectly us. Not a single moment felt forced. I truly believe that because they took the time to get to know us before the wedding, that is what made everything they did feel so utterly authentic to us a couple. If it sounds like I am obsessed with them, it is 100% because I am. They weren't just the photo & video vendors that we hired for our wedding, they became our friends through this process. We had an absolute blast with them, and we laughed together all day. They literally made our wedding even better, and I believe that if we hadn't had them there it wouldn't have even been as fun as it was. The very next day after the wedding they sent us about 8 photos, already retouched and perfected as previews of our gallery. We were blown away by how they captured us and our love in just these few photos. What is more is they also created a 1 minute preview video that we have watched about 1,000 times already. Everything from the moments they included, to the song they chose was PERFECTION for us. 1 month after the wedding, they sent us our full photo gallery, full wedding video, and individual videos of specific moments. We were floored by the quality of their work. Everything is even better than we ever expected and we are so thankful to have those memories from the best day of our lives. I also have to note that I am in fashion so I have worked with a ton of photographers and videographers in my career - I can say with professional confidence that Maddie & Luke are some of the most talented people behind a camera I have ever had the pleasure to work with. I could go on and on about these two beautiful humans, but to sum it up - there are not strong enough words for how much we recommend The Honeymooners Productions to every couple (especially our LGBTQ+ family who need that kind of love and care). We love you Maddie & Luke!

Aubrey did an incredible job during the planning portion leading up to my wedding for photography. She has impeccable communication, thorough documentation and expectations and will guide you through things that you think would work great but with her experience she might suggest something slightly different that will make a world of difference in the timeline of your day for photography. She is always open to ensuring that you as the client have your desires for your wedding photos fulfilled. I always felt like she listened, and worked through fine-tuning details. My husband and I aren't exactly "comfortable" in front of the camera and rarely knew what to do with our hands or where to look and she was always so helpful to ensure we were comfortable and the photos would turn out looking relaxed and at ease. My wedding photos are stunning and I have Aubrey to thank for that! You won't regret choosing her to photograph your most precious day!

Hi! Im Britt (Rene is my middle name, named after my late cuban grandfather). I started off my photography journey with film—my grandfather, Harold, gifted me my first camera in grade school. In high school I hit the darkroom for the first time and i was sold. 10 years running my business and i still love traveling the world, capturing love stories. I am so freakin' grateful.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was a fan of Britt's photography before our wedding. Once we set a date, I immediately emailed her. It's truly the best wedding-related decision we made. Britt is extremely talented and professional. Best of all, she's a wonderful person who brought her warmth and calming energy to our special day. We seriously cannot recommend her highly enough!

Denise is professional, personable, and a phenomenal photographer! She understands the magnitude of the moment and goes above and beyond to capture this memory with ease. With tips and tricks to make you feel more comfortable in front of the camera your pictures will come out looking natural and you will enjoy your entire time with her. With that being said, she is very attentive and focuses in on every detail. When it comes to editing your photos, I can tell she sat and looked at each frame. There isn't a blanket preset thrown over our gallery. She makes sure each image is at the highest quality and does so with a great turn around time. After shooting our engagement photos with her and seeing the gallery of them, I was so thankful we chose her to do our wedding!! She captured our day perfectly and helped everyone remain calm throughout the day with her demeanor. When you book Denise you will walk into it with a photographer and away from it with a new friend!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved every minute with Kristina! She traveled to Arizona to shoot our engagement photos and she came all the way to Jamaica to shoot our Wedding. She has such a creative way of capturing the beauty of a single moment so effortlessly. I know, years from now when I see these photos, my heart will still race the way it did that day. For that, I will be forever grateful! When you think about it, there's very little remaining of your wedding day. The flowers have gone, the guests have flown home, you are back at work. About the only thing that remains is the photos, so I think it is a great investment to get the absolute best, and for that I would recommend Kristina Lee Photography every time!

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
Rebecca was awesome beyond words and we highly recommend her. Our wedding was non-traditional and posed some unique challenges. We threw a backyard Halloween party and surprised our guests by exchanging vows at midnight. To go along with the surprise and remain incognito, Rebecca showed up in costume as an old-timey reporter with a "PRESS" marker tucked in her hatband. She pulled the ruse off flawlessly, blending in and chatting effortlessly with our friends so that she could capture those perfectly candid and special moments throughout the night. No one appeared camera shy, no one looked awkward or directed, every last portrait was of a cherished friend at their joyous best. We had been initially concerned about our lighting conditions since the event was outdoors and at night. We couldn't go too overboard with party lights, nor did we want our photographer to be milling through the crowd with a bright flash. Rebecca laid our concerns to rest well before the event, and her expertise with low-light shooting is on display in our gallery. The photos were absolutely stunning. Some of our favorites were the amazingly touching and genuine reactions of surprise when we revealed we were getting married. We could not be happier or have asked for a better photographer experience. We'll cherish these beautiful mementos for the rest of our lives and we cannot recommend Rebecca y las otras enough.

If you are looking for a photographer who will listen to you, be the calm in the chaos, help you be in the moment, and document your day in the most true and authentically beautiful way then Christin is your girl. She is not only wildly talented but she is thoughtful, kind, and so organized. I have both had my photos taken by her and worked along side her as a fellow vendor and she is truly amazing. Christin will deliver photos to you that will give you the warm fuzzies and make you feel the moment all over again! I can not say enough great things about her.

Hey, I'm Emily! A natural light photographer based in Portland Oregon who specializes in true-to-color edits and authentic captures. Like many photogs out there, I picked up a camera really young and haven’t put it down since. I never wanted to forget parts of my childhood and young adulthood, so it became second nature for me to document the things I loved with photographs in a very real and candid way. Fast forward to today, I couldn’t feel luckier that this hobby became a career focused on preserving life’s most precious moments for others. Who will be the girl behind the camera hyping you up while capturing some authentic moments?

Awarded Best of Zola
I'm so glad that we hired Emily (Simply Wandering Photo) for our wedding. From the first email, she was super responsive and helpful. Neither of us had ever had professional photos taken so we did an engagement shoot with Em before the wedding, and it was fantastic. We were both worried about being awkward (isn't everybody?) and it feeling forced, but she directed us with such ease and confidence that it felt like a breeze - and the photos are perfect. Same for the wedding. Ours was a relatively small backyard-type wedding, and she did a wonderful job of capturing the day, our emotions, the ceremony, family, and the whole setting overall. She's got fantastic photo skills and maybe even more importantly, awesome people skills! Her communication was clear, consistent, and timely, she had tons of suggestions/tips and helpful info, and she just led us through the whole process as if she'd been doing it her whole life. 10/10, definitely recommend.

We are committed to telling our couples stories and supporting them in ways that allow them to be free of stress and to be in the moment.

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.

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!

During my time at school, Brooks Photography Institute, I studied multiple types of photography: fashion, commercial, food, nature, architecture, and portraiture. All of this experience has prepared me for bringing professionalism and creativity to every part of your day. I have photographed weddings for 10 years, during which time I learned the ins and outs of the industry. I have traveled to many countries, worked with celebrities and have been there to capture priceless moments for hundreds of people and their families. In 2014, I was recognized by Rangefinders Magazine as one of the 30 Rising Stars of Wedding Photography.

Lauren from the get-go was extremely friendly and easy to work with from our engagement photos to a full 3 day weekend of wedding festivities out of state. She feels like part of your family and is able to make everyone feel at ease while capturing images that truly blow your mind. Our mothers cannot stop talking about how much they love the moments she was able to capture, and we can truly say that we are blessed with not only amazing wedding photos, but a wonderful experience that we will continue to recommend again and again.

Angela is a Destination wedding photographer capturing timeless memories. She loves providing couples with candid images that they can look back on for a lifetime. Her passion is to connect and tell couples’ love stories through the beauty and emotion of the moments captured.

We booked Angela for our Winter Park wedding in the spring. She bared with me through changing venues/planning an entirely different wedding. Angela and I really hit it off but even if we didn’t; her work is impeccable and she is so professional. She handled my insane MIL, lifted me up, and made accommodations that she didn’t need to make. Angela is a DREAM to work with and the sweetest of sweethearts. We received our sneak peek one week out and received almost 100 photos! I recommend Angela to anyone who wants a light and airy photography style.

Hello Friends! I'm a wedding and portrait photographer based out of Long Beach, CA. Weddings are my absolute favorite type of photography and I love hearing about my couples love stories. My commitment to you is to provide with the best images of your life and a feeling that we are going to be friends for awhile. I will walk you through the whole process from start to finish and I'll make sure you take the time to enjoy your special day.

James Korin Photography is WONDERFUL. If you want your wedding day or other special event to run smoothly, be fun, and to capture the important details, look no further. James Korin Photography was recommended to me by a friend whose sister used them for her wedding day. The quality of the photos are awesome. A lot of photos nowadays are super contrasted or look like a preset threw up on them, but James Korin photos are timeless and beautiful — not trendy preset photos. Our wedding photos are beautiful! Thank you!

I have been photographing couples for nearly 10 years and have loved every minute of it. I have enjoyed following them through engagement, wedding, maternity and now family sessions. I have even become life long friends with some of them. I am a mother of 3 and have always loved art, and once I picked up my camera and found a way to tell others love stories, I knew I found what I was supposed to do.

Michelle is always my go to when my clients need a photographer! She is great to work with, easy going and produces amazing photos! She is also my number 1 pick for my family photos!! You will not regret choosing Michelle at Valley Images Photography!!

If it's your first time here, welcome! My name is Shannon Montgomery, and I am a California and travel photographer that specializes in traditional+timeless weddings and elopements. I am always up for a good hike, enjoy rainy overcast days, and will always stop to pet any dogs in reach! Working in the garden, getting to visit any possible farm animal (but especially cows), and walking barefoot make me happiest. I love seeing the beauty in things that have endured the test of time, seen across the challenges and storms, and still stand in their own kind of beauty today.

Shannon is phenomenal! As a planner, she is so easy to work with and so kind! She makes my couples feel comfortable in front of the camera and not only that, but the photos she takes are breathtaking. She is one of the kindest photographers out there with quality work to match! She will capture your day beautifully and it is always a joy to work with her.

My name is Makenzi but most people call me M.J. I am a Destination Wedding and Elopement photographer that travels all over the country to beautiful destinations to witness the greatest love stories! My photography style is warm, vibrant, and authentic. I love working with all different types of individuals (that become friends) and capturing some of the most unforgettable moments through my lens. I like to create a comfortable space for my clients to be completely themselves in order to capture candid moments that tells their story! My career is photography, but my passion is people.

Communication from start to end was quick and easy, and MJs photos are worth the price! Our photos were bright, colorful, and reflect our day perfectly. MJ was a good sport since our group started celebrations early in the day and laughed off the craziness with us lol! We got our photos in a timely manner and even received printed copies, a thank you note and a USB with all edited and unedited photos from the day. We would recommend her to anyone !
