San Diego, CA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Aliso Viejo, CA

Welcome to PKA Photography! We are a dynamic husband-wife duo, our journey began when our own wedding visuals left us unsatisfied in 2022. Instead of dwelling on discontent, we took charge, giving birth to PKA Photography in June 2022. In this short span, we've joyfully captured over 300 weddings and events, spanning from intimate elopements to heartwarming civil ceremonies. Each event embodies a unique tale, a celebration of love, and an opportunity to freeze magical moments in time. In every project, we step into your shoes, ensuring that your experience with us aligns with everything we'd desire for our own wedding.

My wife and I could not have been happier to have chosen PKA as our photographers for our wedding! We had the pleasure of working with Mia, LaRon, and Kate, for both photography and videography. They were able to perfectly capture all of the special moments and made the process extremely fun and comfortable. Their communication skills are phenomenal which made it easy to prepare for the big day. Our ceremony was on Coronado Island and they scouted a beautiful location for our first look prior to the ceremony. During our meeting before the wedding, we had an idea of what we wanted, but the team was able to make it come to life even more beautiful than we could have ever anticipated. There is no doubt in our mind that Mia, LaRon, and Kate truly LOVE what they do. You can see their dedication and passion for their work in person and in pictures. Their abilities to capture jaw dropping images that we can look back on forever is something that we will always be grateful for. We will DEFINITELY be reaching out to PKA Photography for future events. Thank you once again to the wonderful PKA team, you helped make our day unforgettable.

A former wedding planner turned photographer, my eye for details comes second only to my heart for authentic moments of joy. With over a decade of experience in the wedding industry, it is my honor and my passion to create timeless imagery to tell your story. My mission is to preserve the memories of your wedding in the most extraordinary way.

Awarded Best of Zola
Leslie is the best! She radiates sweetness and so beautifully captured our big day. She genuinely listens in each meeting, and is so easy to talk to. The relationship that she creates is one that makes the wedding so enjoyable— and you get the vision you want because she remembers what you wanted! We wanted photos that were light, airy, and timeless— her touch is exactly that. I can’t stop posting the photos and choosing which ones to post has been hard because I love them all!! You will not regret choosing Leslie for your big day- you can feel the love and energy through the photos. She also offers incredible print options and we got our favorite photo in a stunning acrylic!! Overall, pictures are one of the biggest parts of a wedding and she delivered on every front. She created a schedule that was perfect for the flow of the wedding, she could get people where they needed to be, she captured moments that I missed during the day (and I love to look back on now), and of course all the important moments!

Hi! I'm Amanda. I never need an excuse to road trip or dance like no one is watching and my soul would probably shrivel up and die without music and high five moments. Finding kindred spirits is the best medicine and I will stop at nothing to savor a fleeting moment. Helping you look and FEEL amazing is literally the best part of what I get to do! I thrive on making your photos a completely comfortable, fun and utterly painless process! I absolutely LIVE for this.

Awarded Best of Zola
Amanda was our photographer for our wedding and did an amazing job. From the 1st phone call to several follow-up emails leading to the big day, she was extremely responsive and knowledgeable, which put us at ease. On the day of our wedding, she helped capture the most beautiful photos of my husband and I at the Mission in San Juan Capistrano. She knew the area well and directed us effortlessly and efficiently, while being keenly aware of areas with the best lighting. Her care and attention to ensure our day was truly special was evident in every interaction - even helping many of the groomsmen with their boutonnieres! We received all our photos a little less than 1 month after our wedding date, which was fantastic as we were still on our honeymoon and got to relive so many precious moments together. We are so happy with the quality of our wedding photos and can’t wait to print our favorites for our home. We would recommend Amanda to any couple looking for a wedding photographer!

Menifee, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Aliso Viejo, CA

I’m a thrift shopper who loves cozy blankets and good pasta. Now that I'm a mom (of twins!), I'm reminded every day of how important the little moments are and how important it is for me to capture them before they're gone! I like to think that my style is natural and genuine :) I smile big, love to laugh but also might cry at your first dance.

My husband and I hired Emily as our photographer after a friend of mine posted her wedding photos to her Instagram over a year ago. I wasn't keen on the venue's recommendations and I couldn't seem to find a photographer that was worth the money. Thank goodness for my friend posting her wedding photos at the time she did because I was about to pick any photographer for the sake of it. Her wedding shots were so gorgeous! The veil shots? Chef's kiss! I reached out to Emily and we hopped on a call a few days later. She is so easy to talk to and relatable. We went over things about what I want and what to expect. The day of our wedding she went right into the groove of things even though my mom showed up an hour late to the venue for photos. I was stressing and she made sure I forgot about that! She got shots I didn't even think of. She made those awkward laughing photos super fun. I cannot thank Emily and her second shooter, David, enough.

Hi! So you’re getting married and you made it here :) First off, congratulations! Love found your heart, and this is all that matters. I’m Tiago and before being a vendor of your wedding, I want you to keep in mind that behind the camera there is a person, who is more interested in your life story, and in the history of your love to translate it into pictures. With that said, before we talk about photography, we can have a beer or a good wine and get to know each other better. If you are willing to do this and also have elegant, romantic and very natural images, it will be an honor to be part of your life by clicking on your special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Tiago shot our engagement photos while my fiancé and I were visiting Las Vegas and he is absolutely AMAZING. I couldn’t be happier with how the photos turned out. Every picture was so unique and fun and he brought my vision to life and even exceeded my expectations. My fiancé and I are not great at taking photos, but Tiago made us feel at ease and gave just the right amount of instruction. He was also great to spend time with and kept the experience fun and exciting. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to have their engagement or wedding photos done.

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

Awarded Best of Zola
Russ was an absolute dream to work with. Fun, friendly, great at sorting all the details beforehand and an absolute star on the day. The photos were stunning – we'd initially questioned whether we would even bother with a photographer, but after working with Russ, I can tell you, it is 200% worth it. Me and my husband have never looked so good in a photo in our lives (and likely never will again...). Russ perfectly balanced being a fly on the wall when it mattered (during the ceremony, etc), with giving us some much needed guidance for fun group shots and portraits. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Book him now!!

Hi, I'm Nicole! From a young age, I always had a camera in hand and absolutely loved taking photographs and documenting anything that caught my eye. Born and raised in Southern California, I love the beach, bright colors, and documenting couples' love stories. Pursuing my passion for photography, I graduated from Brooks Institute of Photography with my BFA. I photographed my first wedding in 2014 and never looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Nicole was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! We were originally supposed to get married in April 2020 and didn't end up having the wedding until September 2021. Nicole was amazing throughout the entire process: she helped us find other vendors and supported us through many postponements. On the wedding day she made everyone feel comfortable and confident. And most importantly our photos turned out beautifully! The colors are vibrant and classic so they will never go out of style. We couldn't be happier with our photos and the environment Nicole helped to create on our wedding day. She really went above and beyond the role of a photographer and we would highly recommend hiring her!

As a devoted wedding and portrait photographer, my primary focus is on authentically capturing the genuine emotions that make up your unique story. My goal is to ensure that your special day is not just visually documented, but deeply felt.

He gave me a few good options of where to propose and we set up the date and time. He met me on time there and hid very well to where I couldn’t even find him haha. Every shot was absolutely amazing and the photos came out so beautifully. I highly recommend anyone to Rafael and promise you will never regret choosing him.

I'm a Bay Area native with over 12 years in the commercial photography realm. I got my start on the beaches of Los Angeles back in 2012 shooting commercial swimwear campaigns for some of the best designers in swim and fashion. That opened the door to countless opportunities with modeling agencies, reality television, and fashion design. In 2018 I made the move back up north to San Francisco where I grew up. With a wide network of friends and family up here, I found myself catapulted into the Wedding and Elopement industry - and absolutely loved it! I'm honored when I get to be a part of one of the best days of a couple's life together.

Shelby Ayn Photography

5.0

Monrovia, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Aliso Viejo, CA

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 found Shelby through searching wedding photographers on Instagram and instantly loved her style. We were supposed to get married in Big Bear but had a last minute venue change. She was awesome and so flexible and instead made the trip out to Palm Desert to document our special day. She got there early, organized with her shot list and suggested shots that I otherwise would not have, and I'm so thankful for that! Look forward to working with her again for future life events! Thank you!

I'm in love with taking photos and I spend all of my time working on fine-tuning my photography but also getting deeper than just taking photos. I am taking photos with the purpose now more than ever. Its been my years of experience that has helped me develop my photography into art and not just a picture taker. From the moment I meet my clients, I want to know as much as I can. Getting closer to a client really transcends into the photographs I am taking of them and their special day.

Working with Toby has been an amazing experience, we have enjoyed every session! He has so much creativity, direction, and passion for what he does behind the camera. You know he wants to get the best shot for you every time, and he will. So far we have had our engagement photos (with our dog), a session when we got our marriage license/ceremony downtown county admin building at the harbor, and soon our wedding with Toby booked. When we get our pictures back, I am in awe and amazed at his work. Seriously feel lucky to have met him. He will forever be our photographer.

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.

As the bride, there was so much going on and I didn't have to direct J. at all, he just flowed through the preparation, ceremony and party with ease and captured everything. He also had some fabulous ideas for posed pictures post ceremony. From the start I knew he would be great because he contacted me immediately after I sent a request to him and actually PICKED UP THE PHONE to speak in person. Crucial in my book! We were absolutely impressed with his professionalism and the pictures are beyond even "a thousand words". We couldn't be happier.

So I can go back + revisit so many wonderful memories from my life...most which I wouldn't remember without pictures!

But Nicole was understanding, and did her best to work with our requests. She seemed to be just as excited about our plans as we were. My husband and I both agreed that she was easy to reach, and she was always very pleasant whenever we did so. She actually showed up to my wedding before I did!

Kellie is amazing! She was so quick to respond with answers for a ton of questions I had before booking her. She also made me and my husband feel comfortable in front of the camera and helped us with poses. I described the look i was going for and kellies photography matched it perfectly! She was always on time and had a quick turn around with my photos and album. She stayed til the very end of my wedding and got some fun candid shots. We love our photos and everyone who has seen them is super impressed! I’ll be using her again for my next event!

Playing with my grandma's film camera opened my eyes to new possibilities. After leaving Brazil, I decided to become a photographer and use my photographic eye to capture people's special days. Since then, I have had the honor of photographing people from all over the world.

Looking for a photographer is difficult and so expensive. We talked to many and even though everyone is professional we never felt cared for till we spoke to Renee. Her and Ricky her husband/videographer were both so great and thoughtful. They checked out our venue to get an overlay. We met up on another day for a engagement session which turned out amazing! It was really fun and enjoyable. They were both so flexible and patient. In my opinion they turned out to be more than just our photographers. On our wedding things got hectic due to rain and plans changing but they both adjusted accordingly. All of our photos look amazing and they got great candid shots si we that's what we wanted. I have no problem recommending them to anyone. We have photographers now for life for all of our events and I would even say friends :)

She was patient and made the process of taking photos easy. I was amazed when she sent a few example photos the next day..they were all beautiful. I’m so excited to see the rest. Thankfully Brenda knew how to use zoom which was a huge help for us, she was quick to offer help and I appreciated that greatly. I know for sure if we ever need a photographer for anything else we would definitely use Brenda again.

Eli Holmes Photo + Film

Block Island, RI

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! 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 photographed our proposal as well as our wedding and both sets of photos came out so beautiful! She is the sweetest and so fun to work with! Prior to the wedding she took time to talk to me and make sure we were on the same page for how we wanted the photos to feel and look, what poses or types of shots we might have especially wanted etc. (but was also so good about helping direct us if we got in an awkward posing situation!!) and had beautiful ideas for photos that didn’t just look like every single other wedding picture you’ve seen! She also made sure everything for the day of was coordinated with a photo schedule for our first look and things like the family shots which made everything run smooth and was very stress free for everyone involved. She perfectly timed out when and where we would need to be for the best lighting and even before that (since our photos after the ceremony were off site) made sure that location was just right and would work well. She honestly thought of everything and her preparation was obvious in how perfect the photos turned out! Savannah captured the special parts of that busy day but also little things I was too distracted to really soak in, she’s worth every bit!

We couldn't have had a better photographer than Adrianna. She absolutely nailed it with our wedding photos! We don't take ourselves too seriously and wanted our wedding pictures to reflect that, and she didn't disappoint. Our wedding teasers definitely felt like us rather than being super posed and dressed up versions of ourselves. All the photos felt like they captured exactly who we are as a couple. Not only did Adrianna take amazing photos, but she was like our personal wedding hero, making sure everything ran smooth. Our reception was a little chaotic since it was raining, and she took all our stress away with her thoughtful ideas. We thought she was reading our minds because everytime we were stressed or overwhelmed, she backed us up and helped us sneak out to take breaks. If we even mentioned something we weren't fans of, it was taken care of quickly and quietly. She seriously saved our butts more times than we could count. Throughout the whole day she was thoughtful, intuitive, non-judgmental, and so nice. We may have just met her on thr wedding day, but we were treated like she'd known us forever. We were worried it'd be weird to have someone following us around with a camera who we didn't know to well and it was the exact opposite with her! Long story short, if you want someone who's not just going take your photos but also make your wedding day feel like a breeze, Adrianna is your person.

That is how we would describe Jamaal's work! From the first consultation, he was very flexible and responsive to putting together a package that fit our needs. His sense of professionalism, yet amicable personality made it very comfortable to work with Jamaal. While taking the pics, he allowed us to just be ourselves, catching many candid shots so the photoshoot felt natural. He made us feel very comfortable throughout all the shoots we did. His finished products are stunning, not to mention he turns it around super fast!! From the 1st consultation all the way to the wedding day, he was always quick to respond and punctual to everything (true story: he showed up like 3hrs before so he could scope spots for our engagement shoot). We will surely use Visuals by J. McKenzie for any other future photography needs!! Thanks Jamaal!!!

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.

My husband and I had Annie take our engagement photos and she also photographed our wedding day... To say we were pleased with her work would be an absolute understatement. Not only does the quality of Annie's work speak for itself, but Annie is a JOY to work with! She is kind, thoughtful, caring, professional, VERY well organized, and an excellent communicator. Throughout the wedding planning process, Annie checked in on us to see how we were doing. She was someone I felt like I could go to to ask questions and get feedback about the day's schedule, details about the order of events, etc. She was so much more than just a photographer for us -- her kindness and care for us took away our nerves about the big day and made us so excited! I HIGHLY recommend Crawford Photo Co. Outstanding service, exceptional quality, and genuinely a joy to work with.

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!
