I’m a husband to my high school sweetheart, I’m a dad to three gorgeous little girls, and I love my city of Costa Mesa, CA. Me in a nutshell...good coffee, bacon, and whiskey are my jam. A perfect day off consists of a mountain bike ride, some tacos, and swimming in our pool with my wife and daughters. I spent over 8 years in jobs that sucked the life out of me, but now I have one that breathes life back into me. You see, photography is not my identity…but it's definitely an extension of how I was created to see life. And I got into capturing meaningful moments because I am all about the life behind the moment, not just the event.

Nick Cruz Photography, LLC

5.0

Costa Mesa, CA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,500

My parents don’t have professional photos of their wedding. It’s ironic being that I photograph weddings for a living. Long story short, my Grandfather hired a distant cousin as their wedding photographer, his customer service was beyond subpar and pricing was vague. He eventually went out of business and apparently took the photos down with him. It’s a sad story but it is something that fuels my mission as a wedding photographer. To give my clients a memorable experience from the first Zoom meeting to the delivery of their gallery and beyond.

We had the best experience working with Nick (and Mackenzie) on our big day. I cannot recommend Nick Cruz Photography enough! All of our photos are so beautiful and exceeded our (high) expectations. We could not have asked for better photos or a better photographer. Getting married during COVID meant a lot of last-minute changes in plans and Nick was so supportive and willing to work with us to make sure we captured all aspects of the day safely. And he is so personable - we had a total of 13 people at our wedding, so it was a very small group, all immediate family, but he fit right in! He was super organized and had a shot list to make sure we didn't miss any typical wedding photos. His website for photo delivery makes it so easy to view/download photos and he got us some sneak peaks super fast. Overall, we had such a great experience with Nick and plan to use him for all other big life events that require photography! (He also did our engagement - those photos were amazing too! He worked with my husband to pop out of the trees and capture the actual proposal.)

Thank you for stopping by my website! My name is Yuki, and I am a photographer based in Southern California. Since I was little, I've had a camera in my hands wherever I go, and it has been my passion to photograph unforgettable moments. My influence came from my father who is a semi-pro photographer and videographer in Japan, and his journalistic photography style encouraged me to anticipate the moments and capture natural impressions. The moments I capture become the past, but what inspires me is seeing people’s reactions to the photographs I take. It is my hope that these moments become timeless. Often clients tell me that having a photo can bring back the feelings and memories of that moment, which is why I launched Yukipix Photography, LLC.

Book Sarah now!! My fiance hired Sarah for a surprise proposal photoshoot and a 1-hour engagement session after. Every step of the way, Sarah was excellent! She was quick to respond to my fiance and coordinated everything seamlessly. Once I arrived at the spot, she was discreet to not ruin the surprise. When we finally met for the longer shoot, I was instantly at ease. Taking engagement pictures is awkward- posing, PDA, being overly excited about everything- and Sarah was great at handling everything! She was easy to talk to, had tons of great ideas, and made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. From making sure I could handle certain types of terrain in my shoes to ensuring that my short dress would be fine for any lift photos, she was professional and prepared every step of the way. Sarah shot our photos on Sunday; by the time we were sitting at dinner an hour later, she had sent us 5 pictures already edited. By Monday we had a gif, and by Thursday we had the entire gallery. Not only are the pictures gorgeous, but Sarah's efficiency, professionalism, and outstanding quality made such a difference for us. We are so lucky to have worked with her and would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone! Thank you so much, Sarah, for being a part of one of the most special days of our lives!

We had the privilege of having Stephen photograph our entire wedding day! We could not be more happier with how the entire day was documented. Photography was one of the top vendors we prioritized our budget for. Each photo came out so great and I'm having a great time sharing them with family and friends. Stephen has wonderful communication, organization, and photography talents! - Planning: I found Stephen from Instagram and it so happened that he had worked with both our coordinator and venue previously. What attracted me first from his profile was his lighting/editing style - not too much overly exposed or brighten or romanticized photos. We not only preferred a more realistic color in our photos, but knew that our venue may not accommodate that bright style due to it being mainly indoors. Stephen took the initiative to set up a first meeting as well. We appreciated this as I know it's important for photographers and their clients to have good chemistry. We appreciated how straight forward Stephen was and how much his passion for capturing raw moments showed. It was clear that he shows that he likes to have fun while taking photographs and trying all kinds of ways of shooting, which was definitely demonstrated on the day of. Stephen was very organized and punctual from contracts to scheduling to communication. - Day of: Stephen was great during the wedding day! He was organized and made his own schedule with our coordinator's to be sure to get all requested and desired shots in during the day. He came so prepared with so many different poses in mind that there was never a moments where us and the wedding party never felt awkward or anything! Taking photos was fun and a very smooth and memorable process. I had the most fun taking pictures with my girls. I loved all the photos of the family, guests, and dancing as well. Stephen even took some time out during dancing to get some cool couple shots at night. I appreciated the film shots as well. Stephen took authority throughout the day and was so kind and accommodating. - Post-wedding: Stephen edits so quickly!! We got sneak peaks within a couple days. I wasn't sure how long all the photos would take and a few friends were saying theirs took 2-3 months! However, Stephen got an entire day's worth of photos to us in one month!!! He got the guest and family shots down, couple and bridal party shots captured, and perfect couple shots as well. I love all the lighting and color editing. He captured great candid moments as well. We have been staring at them ever since receiving them! Thank you so much Stephen for providing these photos for us! They are something we will remember our special day by! It was great working with you!

A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

I'm really glad to have had his expertise in setting up our wedding day timeline, and he delivered everything I was hoping for and much more in the final photos. His use of lighting and the natural environment is really special. The natural aesthetic of the finished photos is gorgeous. I have a large family and it was no easy task to deal with their different personalities and requests and Love Knot handled everything perfectly. The entire time throughout this process of planning and throwing a wedding Isaac has been very responsive and willing to help us with any questions we have anytime. It's an art to create photos this special, and another type of art to manage a business and respond to the individual needs of a client. And it's beautiful to see both come together so seamlessly.

Before the wedding we chatted many times & she was easy to work with, professional, genuinely nice, & gave great advice for the whole process. She created a detailed timeline and went through it with us prior to the wedding and it was exactly what we wanted. On the actual wedding day Ashley made everything so stress free. Pictures went so quickly and were so easy with her guiding everything. She has a GREAT eye for detail and makes sure the pictures are perfect. She also learned many people’s names from the wedding party which speaks to her professionalism & how much she cares about her clients. There were no awkward moments when taking pictures and she managed a large group of people & kids with ease! We got a sneak peek of almost 40 picture by the next day and they were absolutely perfect. Every single picture!! I would use Ashley for any pictures I need in the future & would recommend her to anyone everyone.

I’m a modern and journalistic photographer who specializes in capturing candid, spontaneous moments in a natural and unobtrusive way. It is characterized by its emphasis on storytelling and the use of a documentary style of photography. modern and journalistic photography emphasizes authenticity, storytelling, and capturing the unique personality and emotions of the subject. By using a natural and unobtrusive approach, I create a more personal and intimate representation of their subject.

My husband and I had a wonderful overall experience with Bryan at White August Photography. From the initial phone call to the day we picked up our finalized wedding photos, he was nothing but professional! I was, at first, hesitant about deciding to go with White August for our engagement and wedding day photos, but after meeting Bryan at his office and seeing his works as well as photo packages, we knew he was the right one. We took our engagement photos a few months beforehand... the weekend after the Fourth of July. Even in the hot summer weather, Bryan helped us stay relaxed and stayed open about all suggestions or concerns. Thus, our engagement photos turned out beautifully! I have received so many compliments about our photos and many of my older friends who have babies/ will soon be married are asking about who took our photos because they want to hire Bryan for their events. He is definitely willing to work with any suggestions because he let us do the initial styling and choosing of engagement session sites. When we were stuck, he stepped in and gave us advice from his experiences. I couldn't have asked for a more comfortable and fun engagement photo session. On the wedding day, he came with an extra photographer to help shoot different angles throughout the ceremony and reception. Bryan also worked well with our other vendors and helpers, so that definitely was a huge plus for a stressed-out bride! Oh, and his timing is great! We received samples of our engagement photos incredibly fast, and we were able to send out save-the-date cards! Also, our wedding day photos were ready in a month with quality work :) I know I will be going to Bryan of White August for my future events and will refer him to friends and family!

During our getting ready on our wedding day, she really went to work getting the littlest details that you never thought you’d needed. And got all the shots we wanted during our wedding ceremony.

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.

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!

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.

This was a long time of a review coming!!! I booked Jessie & Jason back in August 2019 for my engagement session photos. We chose the Half day session photo coverage, which includes your engagement session! I thought that was super helpful and convenient because the package the engagement session and wedding day photos are lumped into one. The engagement session was amazing! We went to the seven magic mountains and Lake las Vegas at 5 am. They did everything they could and more to make me and my fiance comfortable. We knew that our wedding day photos were going to be epic! Fast forward to Wedding day, August 2020, Jessie was very understanding and accommodating to changing my wedding date. I had to change my date due to COVID, as I am sure many Brides have had to do. The Emerics are very flexible. Do not be afraid to book as if things change, you can always reach out and they will accommodate. Wedding day comes, and oh man. It was Majestic!!!!!!!! It was a dream. I was late thanks to my Lyft and other things.....but the Emerics made sure to keep me, my bridal party, and family ON SCHEDULE. They are also Spanish speaking!! Which is what I needed for my family. They make sure to ask what is important to you as far as photos, and what shots to get. The day of, they never leave your side. I felt 100% total confidence in them that day, and trust me, I am one of those OCD brides who needed to be in control of everything!!! But with them, I let go. Overall it was amazing. I highly recommend them not just for the beautiful photos, but for the experience. It was intimate, supportive and genuinely caring.

Hi! My name is Sam Turchin and I’m a wedding & portrait photographer. I'm also a nature-loving, taco-craving, always-up-for-adventuring Los Angeles native. Elegant, unique, and romantic photos that are both modern & timeless.

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked Sam for our engagement shoot and our wedding reception, and we’re so happy we did. She’s fun to work with, very communicative, and creates the most beautiful photos. She’s able to capture the vibe you ask for, and if you’re unsure, she can still figure out how to make something stunning. Would highly recommend Sam for any first-timers like me who have never been photographed, or for nerdy brides who like to talk about Star Wars during a shoot!

Serving the Southwest region including Nevada, Utah, Arizona, and California, we are ready to capture your moments and provide you with professional videography and photography services that will leave you breathless

We are so glad we found Jazz for our elopement photography in Vegas. After initial enquiry and chat over email, Jazz arranged a Zoom call so that we could 'meet' her, which we really valued as it was so important we picked someone we truly vibed with, especially as we had no family or friends joining us so photos were all we would have to share with them. Jazz did an amazing job of capturing us and the Vegas vibes we really wanted. Her photography style really suited our colourful aesthetic without being too harsh or vibrant, exactly what we were after. Jazz kept things fun and light, she had hilarious tactics to make us laugh at the right moments (required for two awkward Brits like us haha) and she chose excellent photography spots based on our mood board. We couldn't recommend Jazz more!

I provide a positive, thoughtful photography experience that ensures you’ll get the photos of your dreams and have space to be present with your community. It’s an honor to join you in celebrating your brand new marriage and I make it a point to understand what you value the most. I don’t over edit or correct your photos, but instead capture the natural colors, details, and soft smiles of your wedding as you actually experienced them. The result? Timeless, classic photos that never go out of style or off trend.

Awarded Best of Zola
I could go on about her but I'll try to be brief - Kyrsten was absolutely incredible at making me and my now-husband feel comfortable in our own skin. We talked on the phone when I first reached out and immediately hit it off, which was easy because she is sassy and says it like it is which I absolutely love. She took our engagement photos on the hottest day of the summer and we had a blast even with sweat dripping down our backs. She had us laughing the whole time and we even wound up in a fountain! I did bridal portraits with her a month before my wedding and it gave me so much peace of mind to know what to expect for the wedding day and to see how everything photographed. At our wedding, Kyrsten made quick work of getting through our large families while keeping the peace amid the chaos. We are obsessed with our engagement photos and my bridal portraits and are anxiously awaiting our wedding photos! I can not recommend Kyrsten enough - but make sure you book her early, she books up fast! Her personality is infectious and her tips and tricks for creating natural smiles and laughter are the funniest!

I have traveled and photographed weddings and engagement shoots all over the country including internationally. I still get nervous before every wedding I photograph. If I didn’t have nervous tension, I probably would have lost the drive and passion for what I love doing the most. The reason for my love of wedding photography is simple: I love spending the day with brides and grooms creating wedding day memories that will last a lifetime. I hunt for moments that cannot be recreated or relived. I love capturing the raw emotion of a wedding day. I want to be the best not only for myself but especially for my clients.

We highly recommend hiring Pete for your wedding day! A great experience from phone consult all the way to the delivery of photos and videos. Pete was super easy to talk to and very thorough in discussing the process and what to expect on the wedding day. He helped talk me through a good rough day-of timeline on the phone as well. On the day of him and his team were promptly on time, professional, and super fun to work with! The bridal party all had great things to say and his organization and professionalism ensured that the day flowed smoothly (and also made me feel super relaxed and easy going about things). Pete was flexible when timing was running behind (on our end) and made it work where we still got in the photos we needed to. He also was super great about fixing my dress for photos so that it would look great. His crew was super fun and it was an overall great experience. Captured so many little moments that were special and significant! I have nothing but positive things to say and would definitely hire him again in the future and highly recommend you do too! After the wedding he got photos back to us quickly and worked with me to make sure we liked the content and music of the highlight video. He was available to answer any questions I had and is just a great dude in general, everyone really liked him and several people came up to me to say that the photographer and team were awesome! Thank you Pete! So glad we worked together and we wish you all the success and good things in life!

I believe that love inspires art. Your wedding day will most likely be a blur of joy, nerves, and excitement with some extraordinary moments in between. Using both film and digital mediums, I balance a combination of both editorial and photojournalistic styles with a fine art approach. This collaboration will allow you both to fully enjoy each and every moment, as we tell the story of your wedding day. Wedding photography is an investment that lasts a lifetime, it’s the part of your wedding day that lives on. This is your love story, told in a classic, authentic, and timeless way.

Here is your super sweet review: My husband and I love our engagement and wedding photos! I especially loved working with her as she is organized, professional, warm, so enthusiastic, and passionate about what she does!! She was also encouraging and made us feel comfortable during our engagement/maternity photo session and wedding day. I am so happy she was there on our wedding day, as she was a joy to be around and all of her pictures she sent us are beautiful!

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.

June of 2012. Just two months after my mom was critically injured and hospitalized. I began using my camera as an emotional outlet. I started taking portraits for family and friends, and eventually, photographed a courthouse wedding. As time went on, it hit me: These photos are freaking important! And I knew from personal experience that these moments, & the people in them, aren't going to be here forever. That camera became so much more than an outlet. It gave me purpose. And now I see my job as an act of service to you. I'm honored to use my talents and skills to deliver what really matters: TANGIBLE MEMORIES OF YOU & THE ONES YOU LOVE

I truly do not even know where to begin regarding my experience with Alyssa and her team at Alyssa Morgan Photography. Over the past 2 years planning our wedding, Alyssa became much more than a vendor; she became a friend and trusted wedding planning confidante. From the moment I met her on my first wedding planning scouting trip (we live in NJ and had a destination wedding in Islamorada), I KNEW she was the photographer for us. Her photos clearly speak for themselves (I mean come ON, they are like something out of a magazine), but her personality (awesome), knowledge of the area (she is a Keys native, which is SO important when having a destination wedding in my opinion – you need someone familiar with the lighting, the locations, etc.), and her overall expertise in the industry (she even coaches other photographers!) truly make her worth every penny. This girl is worth her weight in GOLD and MORE. Alyssa photographed our engagement shoot almost 2 years ago, which helped us to get to know each other more. She knew how to make my then-fiancé laugh and even SMILE in front of the camera (which is not his favorite place to be) and make us look like supermodels in the process. We have her shots of us hanging all over our home because they are too beautiful not to show off. Despite COVID, missing out on our additional wedding planning trips due to the pandemic, and the overall unknown that was our wedding over the past year (we were worried we would have to postpone, cancel, etc.), she was virtually by our side every step of the way. Keeping us filled in on the state of the Keys, helping us troubleshoot obstacles, and keeping me calm in the process. When it came to our wedding, obviously as a bride it is a very overwhelming and nerve wracking day, but when Alyssa and her team of Kat (2nd shooter) and Kurt (videographer – we never even wanted a videographer until Kurt jointed her team and I saw his work and I am SO glad we decided to do it!!!), I instantly felt better. She worked with me and our planner before the wedding to put together a detailed outline of the day, photography timeline, important shot list, and she even helped me pull off a surprise first look for my fiancé with his best man dressed in a wedding dress to calm his nerves too! The day went off seamlessly, she coordinated us, our family, friends, bridal party, extended family to make sure every shot we wanted was taken. We got our sneak peeks back within days and my *husband* and I spent the remainder of our minimoon entranced by them! I always told Alyssa that photography was THE MOST important aspect of my wedding (I am a huge picture person) – and we COULD NOT BE HAPPIER that we chose her to shoot the most important day of our lives. We WILL be returning to the Keys and look forward to Alyssa shooting things like our anniversaries, pregnancy photos, and family photos in the years to come. **In summary, if I can just drive home just one point: IF YOU ARE GETTING MARRIED IN THE KEYS AND NOT USING ALYSSA FOR PHOTOGRAPHY: YOU. ARE. DOING. IT. WRONG!**

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.

I have hired Tom to take headshots for me as a musician, as well as to photograph my engagement to my fiancee in August 2020.

I look for the small gestures between you two while you interact, the way you look at one another in utter comfort and confidence, the way you laugh and crack each other up! I love observing how couples embrace and find each other's nooks. This is your person, the one that you can be your complete self with, how cool is that! It sounds corny, but being a wedding and elopement photographer really is a privilege.

She’s reliable, professional, and above all creates amazing work! If you are looking for someone who is emotionally invested in your special day, look no further and hire Mellisa!

I’m Jamie Y, and there’s a reason why I’ve made photography such an important part of my life. I believe a camera is the perfect tool for capturing bright, colorful, and deep moments from bright, colorful, and deep people, and I have spent over 10 years using my skills to do just that. My favorite subjects are couples and high school seniors, and I am thrilled to help preserve the love, smiles, winks, and glittering futures I see on the other end of my lens.

Awarded Best of Zola
As another photographer in our local wedding industry, I am constantly amazed and impressed by the creativity of Jamie's work. She is truly an artist and master of her craft and will make sure your images are not bland or boring, but one of a kind. She is kind, caring, and easy to get along with as well. If you want daring, unique images that showcase your personalities, Jamie would be a great fit for you!

Hi, I am a multi-cultural wedding photographer, with a taste for bold and vibrant imagery, authentic moments and a dash of glamor. Emotions drive my passion for the art form, and human connections guide me. Born and raised in another hemisphere, I have traveled since. Everywhere I went, my camera allowed me to capture the story behind the people I met & the cultures I observed. I bring the same drive to my wedding photography, where every couple, every family, and all the cultures and traditions I come across, have a different story to tell, and I have the privilege to witness and capture it all!

Abhi is incredibly great to work with! Super professional and always fun. I love his creativity and he communicates really well; which I can appreciate.

Betsy is a lifestyle, wedding, and music photographer based in Los Angeles. She discovered photography as a creative outlet while studying theater at USC. Shortly after graduation, Betsy was hired as the tour photographer for Maroon 5 and documented 34 concerts across the country. Since then, Betsy has been on the road with One Direction, One Republic, Charlie Puth, and most recently Trevor Noah. Betsy's eye for candid moments and storytelling has led to photographing weddings around the world. She lives for documenting life and love through the lens. Betsy looks forward to hearing from you and bringing your vision to life!

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

I am honored that you have made it here and are taking the time to look around to see exactly what I have to offer; from wedding photography to elopements, to couple sessions, or anything else you feel the need that deserves to be documented! My heart is extremely full at the fact that I get to wake up everyday and call this my job! I’m a Nashville wedding photographer with a big passion for travel.

Saul is beyond amazing to work with and genuinely great company during the photoshoot. He makes the shoot feel so natural and effortless. We absolutely love our photos. Our jaw dropped when we saw our couples session photos. They look like shots out of a movie scene! It means so much to us that we could have our special moments captured so perfectly for us to keep forever.

As a child all, I can remember was carrying around one of those Fujifilm cameras and taking photos of family and friends. I always really liked taking photos and having those memories to look back on. Fast forward to 2017, I decided to take my hobby of photography seriously. I learned the ins and outs of photography, learned how to run a successful business, and learned the proper camera settings all on my own. Here I am years later running my business full time and I love what I do. I live and breathe photography. I know this is what I am meant to be doing.

We first booked Sheila for our engagement photos and knew instantly we picked the right person. Her bubbly personality made her incredibly easy to work with and she always did whatever she needed to do to get the best shots. Our engagement and wedding pictures were stunning and we got nothing but compliments from family and friends about her as a photographer and her pictures. We were a bit worried about who to book with and who would be lgbt friendly but Sheila was perfect! We would recommend her to anyone. I can’t stop looking at her photos of our wedding!

Stavan was an amazing photographer for my wife and I. He was so responsive throughout the process, and we planned our wedding for over 9 months in the middle of a pandemic, so there was need for LOTS of communication! Stavan and his assistant were unbelievably professional. He took incredible photos and got them back to us before we even finished our honeymoon! We would highly recommend Stavan for any project or photography need. He was a pleasure to work with, and the finished project was better than we could have ever expected!

We are a Husband & Wife team currently based in SoCal but will travel to Las Vegas as well as any other state in the U.S. What is “The Lou Effect”? Well The Lou Effect is actually a quote my wife would say to me before going to shoots. Before heading out she’d always say “show them that Lou effect”, so from there the name was born. Essentially the goal is to always make every shoot as creatively unique as possible, by showcasing key moments from small details to those big wowing moments to truly tell your days story. But ultimately the desired “Effect” is to leave our clients with smiles on their faces and satisfaction in their hearts.

We just recently worked with The Lou Effect and they made our day go so smoothly and easily. Our photos and videos are amazing, we are amazed at how wonderful they are and thankful they were there to capture our day in such a beautiful way. I 100% recommend and 100% would book again for any event

RACHEL ARTIME PHOTO

NOT AN IMAGE OF PERFECTION. PROOF OF PRESENCE. I feel strongly that everyone can and should feel beautiful. I hate the idea that some are photogenic and others are not. Helping you feel like your truest and most beautiful self in your photos isn’t just something I do for a job - I do it because everyone deserves images that make them feel that way. It’s my privilege to preserve the beauty of your humanity. ALSO you're in love! You're fun! You're investing a lot, so it shouldn't feel like a chore or checklist item in your story. It should feel like playing dress up with your best friend and a random lady that is nice to you (me).

I can't shut up about Rachel. She is confident, diligent and personable. The effortless cues and small adjustments and suggestions she makes while shooting never leave you thinking "What should I do now?". I recommend her to absolute everybody.
