As a San Diego wedding planner, working with a local always makes my weddings run much smoother! Adam and his team ensure a calm and stress free day for his brides even when hair an makeup runs an hour late!! haha He was still able to catch us back up, without missing any shots the couple had requested. You don't find many photographers that are this cool and collected on the wedding day. I even say him walking the wedding venue an hour before it started to make sure all of his photo locations were planned out!

Awarded Best of Zola
Marisa and Tim are the sweetest people you can imagine. Back in 2019 we began planning our wedding, so you can imagine that it took awhile for it to happen. They rolled with changes from 2020, to 2021, to 2022 and then after my wife and I got COVID the day before our wedding, to later in 2022! They were supportive and accommodating through what was one of the most tumultuous periods in our lives. They made us comfortable, they helped us get ready on the day of the wedding, they are infinitely giving and we will always be thankful for everything they did for us. Now, onto the photos! They're perfect! They're colorful and playful and everything we were looking for. We didn't just want conventional wedding photos, though we did get a number of classic ones that look great and made our parents very happy, we wanted something that felt like us. They also documented everything, from my custom pocket square to my wife's earrings to the invites, to the menus. Over two months later we're still going through the photos and getting enjoyment from them. We are so lucky to have worked with Marisa and Tim. They were a huge part of the best day of our lives and we're so grateful for them.

Morgan Wiltse Photo Co.

San Clemente, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,300

My love for photography began as young as 12 but the passion came as soon as I welcomed my first son, Liam. Motherhood is a busy busy life and the camera keeps all the memories fresh. I love, love. Nothing makes me smile bigger than a surprise engagement, or the welcoming of a new baby. I really try to get to know my clients and visualize their lives before I even attempt to capture their story - because that story is what MAKES the shot!

Awarded Best of Zola
From our engagement to our wedding, Morgan made the photo planning easy, she truly listens to your wants and your goals. I went into my wedding not having an absolute clear vision but after talking and getting to know my husband and I, she brought it all to life. She made everyone so comfortable through out the process and the fun we had really showed in each photo. Very talented photographer and really knows how to capture each moment beautifully. Everything was above and beyond and I will continue to recommend her to everyone!

We found GWM on Zola from the positive reviews and we couldn't be more happy we decided to work with them! The entire process was very simple and straightforward as portal they use is user friendly and organized. Day of the wedding we had Tasha and Erin, who were just absolutely fun to work and hang out with! They truly made the day so much more enjoyable. Weddings always have stressful moments and just their presence and talking with them was so calming for the both of us. There were some photos and videos that our guests captured that also included Tasha and Erin and you can tell Tasha and Erin were genuinely happy and having fun and it really shows in our photos. We received both our sneak peaks and final wedding album earlier than we expected and were blown away by our photos! The composition of very shot looks intentional and balanced while capturing so much emotion and movement. Going through our entire album truly feels like reliving every minute of our special day. The access to the online album is so easy to access, navigate, and download - huge plus!! It is also so organized and laid out beautifully. You won't regret booking with them!

From the moment we first connected, we knew it was a perfect fit. Their passion for their craft was infectious, and their genuine interest in our vision was heartwarming. They took the time to get to know us, understand our hopes for the day, and answer every question, no matter how small. On the wedding day itself, they were on their time sharp. They were like ninjas. They were everywhere and nowhere at the same time, capturing every laugh, tear, and dance move without ever being intrusive. They blended seamlessly into the background, yet somehow managed to be in the perfect position for every precious shot. But it wasn't just their technical skill that blew us away. It was their genuine care and attention to detail. They anticipated our needs before we even knew them. They weren't just vendors; they felt like friends, there to support us and celebrate with us every step of the way. And the results? They were nothing short of breathtaking. The photos are exquisite - vibrant and artistic, capturing every emotion and detail with stunning clarity. They tell the story of our day in a way that words never could, making us relive the magic every time we look at them. The video? It's a masterpiece. It's not just a compilation of clips; it's a cinematic experience, weaving together laughter, tears, and heartwarming moments into a cohesive narrative that pulls at your heartstrings. We've already watched it countless times, and each time, it feels like we're back there, living the dream all over again. Asti and Amir, you didn't just capture our wedding; you captured our souls. You gave us a gift that we will cherish forever, a tangible reminder of the love, laughter, and pure magic of our most special day. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for being such an incredible part of our story. For future couples seeking their dream wedding photographer and videographer, look no further.

I’m a fun-loving, passion-chasing, curly-headed gal looking at life through a viewfinder. My happy place is anywhere outside of my comfort zone, but a nature-filled walk chatting up good company is a close second. If I’m not planning my next trip, or dreaming up something to cook for dinner, I’m outside trying to meet my Fitbit step goal. (10k club, anyone?) My latest leap of faith? A cross-country move to sunny Orange County, California. This isn’t the first time I’ve packed up and jetted away from my home state of Maryland: Germany, Singapore, and South Carolina make the list too.

Awarded Best of Zola
I fell in love with Alainia’s work at first sight. I've had the opportunity to work with her on more than four occasions. And her quality of work is perfection it's so dreamy. I'm a make up artist and she photographs my clients so beautifully. The clarity and tones of her photos are breathe taking. I refer Alainia to any and everyone in need of a professional, talented, patient and fun photography. Praying she never leaves Cali she's is definitely a hidden gem. Also she's such a team player whatever you need she makes it happen.

We were really happy to work with Norbert, he was always responsive, flexible and very attentive to our questions. He was very professional and friendly to us at all times. Plus, he gave us some great recommendations around the area that we hadn't even heard of! We have never really had pictures taken of us before in a romantic setting by a professional before, that alone was pretty intimidating for us. Norbert made the entire photo experience a lot less intimidating for us to go through, the pictures came out perfect in the end!

Seal Beach, CA
  • Classic style

For the last thirteen years, I've been photographing some of life's biggest moments for my clients and their families. In that time, I've learned to look past the ordinary and capture the heart of each story. I take time to connect with each couple so that I can create photographs that will make you say "That is so us!"

Awarded Best of Zola
Belinda. Is. Amazing. You don't even need to keep reading, you should just go book her for your next photography needs (especially for your wedding). Why is Belinda amazing? First and foremost, her photography is incredible. She took so many gorgeous photos from both our engagement session and our wedding day that are just stunning, many of which now hang in our home (and our families' homes... We spread Belinda's photography far and wide!). Belinda has an amazingly high attention to quality and detail, and the hardest work ethic. So first and foremost, the final products she creates are just incredible. But it's not just the final product that matters; it's also the process of getting there. Your photographer is someone who is going to be sharing and capturing some of your most intimate and important life milestones. You want someone who is a joy to work with (and whose team is a joy to work with), who is organized, calming, and knows how to run the show and keep a cool head when things go off plan (as they inevitably will in ways large or small). That is Belinda. Aside from her photography, her "shepherding" skills were invaluable throughout the entire wedding process, from the preparation, to the day of the wedding, to the follow up (which lasted many more months as we selected our prints, etc.). Plus you get the added bonus of her wonderful husband Collyn, too! Belinda knows how to run the show, and do so in a kind, calming, and discreet way (family drama? Belinda's got it handled!). She keeps you on time, stress-free, and having fun along the way. She makes it so that you can enjoy your special moments AND you get amazing photography out of it, to boot. I can't say enough great things and my husband and I both can't wait to work with Belinda again.

Hey there! My name is Katie and I am a part-time photographer and small business owner. My veins are filled with iced coffee and, most of the time, all I want to do is dance. Unlike most, I began my photography career later in life during my college days where I discovered film photography. I spent countless hours in the dark room developing photographs in chemicals and I loved every minute of it. I would describe my photography style as bold and true to color. My favorite part of photography is capturing moments that tell a story so that no matter how much time passes, you can go back and relive that story over and over again.

I am so excited that you stopped by because that means you are looking for your PERFECT PHOTOGRAPHER! Someone who will capture your day in a way that reflects the love, joy, and FUN that comes from your SPECIAL day! And that is my goal with every photo session. I make it personal for you which means not only will I come to your day with great ideas for posing, but I will work with the relationship and chemistry that you two have to make it unique to you! You don’t have to worry about a thing but just go with the flow and have fun (unless you have an idea you would love to do then let’s do it!).

Larissa was first to mind when our family made vacation plans to Yosemite. I knew I wanted to capture our Family in the best way possible and to have beautiful images to look back on and remember our trip. With the California fires, we had to redirect our travel plans and Larissa was extremely accommodating. We ended up in Palm Springs and she followed us through the day, capturing our family outing and backyard pool play - in the BEST way possible. She was calm which helped me keep my stress levels down and she was so playful with my kids, ensuring we got some great photos of us all! Thanks Larissa!

When my grandfather, an industry professional, gave me my first camera, I was hooked. It was a Fischer Price 110 film camera, incredibly cute! He later upgraded me to my first SLR! My Aunt was also a professional photographer so I learned lots from her as well. So, to me, holding a camera is as natural as writing my name. My mission? To capture your heart. Preserve the memories you and your loved ones will always cherish.

I tend to be ambitious. Enthusiastic. A routine follower. Driven to achieve. And adaptable. And I always have been. In high school, I was always that person with a camera at football games and school dances. The minute the event was over, I'd​​​​​​​ post all the pictures to Facebook so my friends could remember and share them.mWhich all makes total sense, looking back. Because delivering a photo gallery that includes the perfect mix of moments my couples expect and love is still the most. satisfying thing.

Hey! If you’ve found yourself here, thank you and I super appreciate you! I’ve been in this crazy business professionally for over 1 year now, but I’m pretty sure I came out of the womb with a camera? Sounds about right! Both of my parents filmed and photographed pretty much everything from my childhood and at a young age I would always be asking them if I could play with the camera or video recorder. It's safe to say they started it! When I got my first DSLR camera senior year of HS the rest was pretty much history.

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.

Wow can’t believe almost going to be a year since I said YES!! to my handsome husband. I came across Randall de Leon Instagram, his photographs and work speaks for itself. His work is just so heartbreaking. from the very beginning till the very end he was so sweet, professional & easy to talk to, I mean he listened to every single little detail and he went above and beyond for us. Randall found us the most beautiful beach to have the ceremony, he captured such beautiful moments with my loved ones, he made sure my wedding dress train and veil always looked on point, he made sure everyone and everything looked perfect. He was so patient and he was just so very much fun to work with. He made all of us feel so comfortable. Felt like he was our friend at our special day capturing special moments. We seriously found my forever photographer 3

I believe that storytelling makes the world go ‘round, thus it gives me such great joy to be a part of telling yours!

Awarded Best of Zola
Anna is an AMAZING photographer. I was loosing hope finding a photographer for my wedding and discovering Anna was the BEST decision I ever made. Not only is she personable but she is so kind and she will go ABOVE AND BEYOND for your photo needs. I knew when I was filling out her inquiry form that she was the photographer for me when I saw Chuck and Blair (CHAIR FTW from gossip girl) on her form. She was very prompt in everything she does and she started off with calling me and getting to know me and all about my wedding. Throughout the preparation process she was there for me for even NON photo needs. She felt like a best friend who is so supportive. We had an AMAZING engagement at Muir Woods and my husband and I was very nervous because we never done a photo shoot before and we are two awkward turtles LOL, but once again, Anna came through and walked us through all the INSTAGRAM-WORTHY photos. We were slaying lol There were many moments we laughed and we had a great time. After the shoot she uploaded all the photos for us in a gallery for us to view and purchase if we like. GOSH we loved the photos. Honestly, after your wedding, and your big moment, photos are what you can look back on because video formats are always changing but printed photos can last centuries to come. On the day of the wedding, Anna was WELL PREPARED (she is a godsend) and she had one other photographer with her (also named Anna) and both of them made us feel so comfortable even though we were running a little bit behind the schedule. After the wedding (This made me cry [tears of joy of course[) but Anna surprised us with printed Polaroids of the wedding photos she took. I CRIED, my Best friends Cried, we all Cried. It was definitely a bittersweet moment because I wish I can be with Anna more. When we were planning the wedding album she sent me a draft and I just approved it because I thought it as good, but Anna was like nononono somethings up there was no comments.TBH i was so happy with her work, any layout is beautiful lolI. It felt SURREAL when the actual album was delivered by FEDEX. My best friends happened to be there when it was delivered and we were in tears again gushing about our happy day..... The album was SO HIGH QUALITY. IT WAS LIKE IT WAS MADE FOR HEIRLOOM. Leather bound, pages were THICC (yes with 2 C's) and I was just BLOWN AWAY (yet again) by Anna's quality even till the VERY END!!!!! I will DEFINITELY hire Anna again for any future photos like Christmas photos, anniversary photos, Boudoir shot, ANYTHING!!!! This woman is AMAZING and I have nothing but good things to say about her. Anna you are truly amazing and I hope nothing but good for your small business. Love Greg, and Mimi

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.

Amanda is AMAZING! She is so sweet and fun. My husband and I are no models, but she helped our quirky selves relax, pose, and take beautiful photos. From the engagement session at the beach with our surfboards to our pandemic mini-money. She really knows what she is doing and we are so thankful she has been with us to document our most special day. :}

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.

Shelby is so easy to work with and cares so much about her craft. It shows in her work, the time and effort she puts into her business, and her communication with her clients. I was overwhelmed and a bit nervous about choosing a photographer because there’s so many out there - plus, you want someone to fit your needs for your most special life memories, capture your vision, etc etc. Shelby will do that. She AMAZED me. If you want a photographer who you can be sure will check all the boxes, you’ll have made the right choice with her. She made us feel like naturals in front of the camera, picked the most amazing shooting location, and really knows what she’s doing. Also her turnaround time on photos was amazing. I would book her again and again and refer her to people whenever I can!!!

I’m a small town girl living in the big city of San Diego. You know the saying, “Home is where the heart is?” For me it has two meanings. If home is a physical place, mine is the magical little town where I was born – Ojai, California. It is a place where people can breathe deep and feel the wholeness of their lives. It's a magical little valley of peace happiness. If home is truly where the heart is, then mine is my family. In 2016, I married my best friend and the father of our beautiful son and daughter. We are a squad of awesomeness and those three hold my heart in the palm of their hands.

Morgan is absolutely incredible! I knew she was the photographer I wanted to work with years before I even got engaged and I was so thrilled when she agreed to work with me. She is warm, talented, professional, and also makes you feel so comfortable. I am in love with our photos and wish we could do the day all over again so that I can be immersed in Morgan's positive energy.

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.

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.

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.

Hey, I’m Bryce! Just incase you were wondering who was behind the camera, you came to the perfect place. To sum myself up in the “meet me” section as described by the closest people in my life: passionate, dependable, intelligent, loyal, determined, witty, genuine, charismatic and productive. Born in Mississippi and raised in sunny Southern California. With over 12 years of professional photography experience. I fell in love-with love and photographing weddings has been my favorite event to capture. Passionate is how family and friends describe me, so with that being said I’d love to capture the passion on your wedding day!

A wedding day takes hours, days and sometimes years to plan and then that day goes by faster than a speeding bullet! But thanks to 4ever-Moore my day was beautifully captured and will last a lifetime. Moments that I didn’t remember happening were captured and brings joy to my husband and I every time we look at them. It was the little things that he brought to life that made it all worth it! Bryce was very patient with us and relieved me of the anxiety that every bride has on that day relating to smile, poise, perfect angles and looking fat! It was his eye for detail that made my husband realize that all his favorites were significantly displayed throughout the day. Thank you 4ever-Moore for capturing my day!

I love freezing wedding days. I stay true to color, but add in a little warmth. I love documenting the day and getting in all the emotions. My favorite part of the entire day- grooms reaction to either his bride walking down the aisle or that first look. I'm also a sucker for dad first looks. Details are also so important, it's one of the biggest day of your lives and getting it all photographed is so very important!

Ashley was pure joy to work with. She was professional and easy going while still making sure everything was orderly. My husband does not like his photo taken and he was relaxed and at ease the whole time. Our gallery came back so quickly and I still tear up at the quality of our photos! We are so thankful for her and all the beautiful memories she captured.
