Ashley Strong Photography

San Clemente, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800

I am Ashley Strong Smith, the very passionate, sincere and grateful soul behind these very time capsules witnessed within this space. Although I’ve been shooting for over a decade, ASP launched full time in April of 2015 as an all encompassing business and became a Corporation - Strong Smith, Inc. in 2018. Since then, I’ve been beyond blessed to : - Document nearly 450 sessions - Document over a 100 weddings - Receive almost 250 FIVE STAR reviews on multiple platforms - Published nearly two dozen times

Amazing. From start to finish. Ashley leads with her heart first, and it’s very rare to work with people who look at their job from that perspective. My wedding day had some interesting curve balls and she jumped right in to help far beyond taking our photos. We loved working with her- she is like family!

Abby Taylor Photography

5.0

Newport Beach, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500

Hi I’m Abby! been told all my life that I have an artistic flair and a gift for creativity, but that’s not the only reason why I started my career in wedding photography. I’m the biggest romantic and feel things deeply — in my photography there’s no detail in your connection that goes unnoticed. The little winks and smirks that silently set your soul on fire, the quirks that stay hidden to everybody else but you, and the parts of them that somehow make you fall in love with them even more… They’re how I tell stories because I know that in time, those are the things you’ll cherish the most.

Abby was an absolute gem to work with! As a content creator who works very closely with lots photographers, I have experienced lots of other photographers who dismissed me and belittled my role and responsibilities. Abby was the complete opposite! She treated me as an equal and was extremely easy to communicate with. Instead of blocking and pushing me aside, we were able to collaborate flawlessly. If she ever needed to switch spots or have me move elsewhere, she was extremely polite and still made sure I was able to get my shot. I seriously can not wait to work with her again!!

I'll keep this short and sweet because truly, it's not about me. I'm here to get to know you and understand you. I'm a mom to my sweet baby boy, a wife to my college sweetheart, and my passion for my work comes from one place — getting to know you, understand you, and photograph your love with integrity.

Sarah was so great to work with, from planning the shots and style we were looking for, to every moment at the wedding! My husband and I aren’t big on photos, but she made us feel comfortable and relaxed by playing fun music while she shot, and she was so good during the ceremony/reception of making it seem like she wasn’t even there! We loved how our photos turned out and we will cherish them forever!

Erin Marton Photography

Newport Beach, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,500

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.

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!

For us, it is all about documenting your day as it unfolds. We are believers that the best photographs come from letting everything flow. We don't believe in interrupting special moments to get a safe (posed) photo. On the contrary, we capture all moments: the fun, the crazy, the unexpected. We will get your dad in tears when he sees you in your wedding gown, and will also take your nephew in the middle of a tantrum. All that is part of your story. When you see your photos in 5 years, you will remember how your special day FELT and not only how it looked. You don't have to worry about photos, you just have to enjoy your day at the fullest.

We are Nadia & Gunnar. We love being outside. We met during our early years in college on our school swim team and had a few photography classes together. It was through our mutual love of photography that we started dating.  Fast forward 9 years we are now married!!!   We are both passionate with two diverse backgrounds: Nadia in fine art and Gunnar in journalism/documentary film making. When it comes to shooting we feel we are blessed to be able to pursue what we love together. We are all about what’s real; capturing life’s small (and large!) moments.

My husband and I absolutely loved working with Nadia and Gunnar! We met with them ahead of time at a local brewery and quickly learned that they would be a great fit. Their photography style is bold and beautiful, and the couple is very professional and easy to work with. It was so hard to narrow down our selection because there were soo many great shots! I can’t wait to work with them again some day! Highly recommend!

I like to describe myself as Jessica Day, minus the really talented singing voice, but just overall kind of quirky and nerdy. I love capturing love stories, and fan girling hard core over all things wedding! If you need someone who is going to help you walk through your planning process, I'm your girl! You can also catch me binge eating tacos and ice cream while editing until 3am!

No matter where you get married Jess makes your photos look like a DREAM. Jess made us feel so comfortable and felt like she was part of the wedding party. We had the MOST fun with her as the photographer for our wedding, I made sure she was free before picking the date of our wedding because having her as our photographer was one of our main priorities! Honestly if I could give her more stars I would.

She found Miku on Zola and Miku's quality of work convinced us to reach out. Every step from beginning to end was highly professional. We had a consultation and talked about what kind of photos we would do for our wedding ceremony and we couldn't be happier with the final result. The photographs are one of the most important parts of a wedding, and now we have those memories captured for a lifetime! Thanks, Miku!

Kay creates magic. She is absolutely amazing! We were thrilled to work with her for both our engagement and wedding photos. She is super professional, friendly, fun and such a pleasure to collaborate with. It is clear to see the care and dedication she puts into her work and into the relationships with her clients. She was a HUGE advocate for us on the day of our wedding to ensure we got photos we wanted when we wanted them. During our time with her, she guided us every step of the way, and made us both feel so comfortable. We will forever be grateful for the beautiful moments Kay captured of our special day. I vividly remember several candid moments during our wedding & ceremony where I thought to myself "I would love to keep a snapshot of this memory forever." When we got our photos back, I was brought to tears of joy, as Kay captured those exact candid moments and they were even more beautiful than I remembered. I will also say, when you get your photos back, they are ALL just so amazing, you are definitely going to have a hard time narrowing down your favorites!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

I became a wedding photographer in a not-so-usual way. I remember telling my girl scout leader that I actually hated any arts & craft we did. Fast forward to many years of sports, and the pivotal moment of entering college, I switched to photography one semester in after realizing my current Marine Biology major was not for me and decided that was where I was headed. It landed me in wedding photography after a few classmates asked me to shoot their weddings. And since I’m a romantic and all…it was a perfect fit from the start. Something you should know about me is that I love all people, deeply. “Love your neighbor” is what I strive for.

Katie’s style of photography is what grab my attention at first. This is the second time we worked with her and she was incredible! Since we did a mini session for our city hall wedding, we were already comfortable taking photos with her and for our party she was so professional and made the photos feel so easy and made sure that I had all the photos I needed with family and friends. I would recommend her over and over again!

My husband and I are a team and have always been drawn to watching old home videos. We love the nostalgia, the time that is still present through documentation. Our inspiration to the way we photograph is similar to these home movies we grew up watching of our families. It’s the candid in between moments. The family and friends who haven’t seen one another in some time go in for a big warm embrace. It’s the group of cousins all about to cheers and take a celebratory drink together. It’s the tears and the laughter being captured when people think no one is looking. Genuine emotions. It’s what moves us. It’s what we live for.

I’ve taken photos for over 250 couples in 8 states and 7 countries over 6 years with 5 cameras for 1 reason: Memories matter. Your wedding day is the fastest day of your life. I'll freeze it for you and then I'll frame it for you. So you can feel it all over again. But choosing a photographer and then trusting them with once-in-a-lifetime moments is stressful. Nobody likes stressy things. I'll make sure the photography is the easiest part of your day.

Welcome to my Wedding Photography page - I’m Leanna, and I’m a wedding addict. I didn’t see it coming, but I fell into the abyss and now there’s no stopping it. 12 years ago I began selling wedding gowns. It was innocent at first- I had no feelings towards the gowns, they all looked the same to me. And either way, I was already in love with Photography. But soon enough, I fell hard. I began playing “love songs radio” and preaching the obvious differences between Alencon, Chantilly, & French Laces. My bridal affair continued with passion while I continued to invest into my first love, Photography.

Besides marrying my husband, hiring Drzazga Photo as our photographer and videographer was the best decision I made! To say that Carly and Kasey were outstanding is an understatement. We hired Drzazga Photo before Covid and when rescheduling happened they were so incredibly accommodating when it came to rescheduling. They go above and beyond for their clients and are willing to answer any and all questions you may have when it comes to planning your big day! Both our engagement and wedding pictures are more than we ever could have imagined! My husband and I are truly so grateful for Carly, Kasey, and the Drzazga Photo team!

We are so easy going and love to be spontaneous with our plans.

From the moment I reached out for a quote, she was super informative and patient with me as I asked for suggestions on locations, outfits, etc. Not only was customer service top tier, the photos and edits were STUNNING. I was absolutely taken aback and literally in tears with how amazing all the photos came out!! Throughout the entire photoshoot, she made it so effortless and she was so easy to work with. She made it so fun and made sure to guide us the whole way and made it easy to follow directions so we wouldn't look "posed" or awkward. The entire process from start to finish was so enjoyable and I would highly, highly recommend booking AM for your photoshoot or event! 10000/10! I can't rave about my experience enough.

Mysi has a rare talent for making you feel incredibly at ease, and she also has an uncanny ability to capture who YOU are and not just what looks "wedding-y" or pretty (although god is her photography just stunning!).

Gabbie Burseth Photo

5.0

Santa Monica, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves San Clemente, CA

My name is Gabbie, and I'm a wedding photographer for the couples who seek a non-traditional approach to their big day. I'm a sucker for a candid moment, intimate ceremonies, and black-and-white images from the 1980s. My work is photojournalistic — I approach weddings through a documentary lens, telling the truth with beautiful and timeless imagery.

Awarded Best of Zola
The professionalism, raw talent, and sweet demeanor are only a few of the exquisite gifts Gabbie offers. If you are looking for a photographer who is the complete package, look no further. When selecting wedding vendors, every blog post will tell you that choosing your photographer is one of the most important (if not the most important). However, little information is provided after that tidbit, which can be daunting for an excited (albeit overwhelmed) bride who wants every detail of their wedding to be perfect. Sean, my now husband, and I had selected our venue, The 1909 in Topanga Canyon, CA., and our coordinator, Allison, with West Events LA, provided us with a list of her preferred vendors -- insert us coming across Gabbie. I remember going to her website, scrolling through her work, and being enamored with how each photo captured a different emotion and feeling. We both immediately knew that from looking at her work alone, we wanted our photos to look and feel the same. After sending an inquiry and coordinating a call, Gabbie & I spoke on the phone for close to an hour about what we had in mind for our wedding, and I remember it all clicking when Gabbie described her work as "documentary" style. Sean and I knew we didn't want a videographer for our wedding, so Gabbie's techniques and overall vision aligned perfectly with what Sean and I wanted. We also opted to do a round of engagement photos with Gabbie 5 months before our wedding, where she came into our home to take photos of us in our most comfortable and natural state (chasing our dogs around the yard) and then for a shoot at a local winery that we love to go to. Not only did we have such a fun and great experience, but we also felt so comfortable and relaxed with Gabbie. We almost forgot we were there to have our photos taken! We received the gallery back shortly after and were so thrilled. Fast-forward to our wedding, we had hired Gabbie a second shooter for 8 hours. They met us at the venue for the final getting-ready details around 1 pm and stayed through to a good portion of the dance floor, around 9 pm. They arrived promptly and were even extra helpful with Sean when getting his suit on! While those details may seem minor to some, it was that unique care and attention from both Gabbie and her second shooter that made Sean & I, and all of our guests, feel so beautiful and confident to be themselves. When Sean and I got our gallery back, we spent a solid three hours scrolling through every captured moment, laughing, crying, and squealing with excitement. I am not exaggerating when I say that seeing the captured images and how Gabbie so beautifully arranged them in the album was purely magic. Any time we go through the album, we genuinely feel transported back to that day, and there is no doubt in my mind it is because of Gabbie's pure mastery of her craft. As part of her thorough questionnaire, one of the questions was what percentage of digital-to-film prints we would like, and for ours, we chose 50:50. I'm so glad we opted for film, and I almost wish we had had more because these photos are indeed what dreams are made of. The icing on the cake, Gabbie also wrote us an adorable card after the wedding, which included 3 of the film prints. Sean & I will forever be grateful to Gabbie for her work and friendship. We love you!!

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

Awarded Best of Zola
When my wife and I were getting married we knew that one of the main priorities was to have an amazing professional photographer to capture all of the important moments so that we can enjoy the day without worry. The first vendor we hired was our photographer nearly a year before our wedding and felt comfortable that we locked that down. To our dismay, less than a month before our wedding date, our photographer had injured themselves and was no longer able to shoot at our wedding. We contacted our wedding planner, worried and full of anxiety, and she highly recommended a photographer she had worked with in the past and the rest is history. We are so glad that we found Fatima, even if it was due to unfortunate circumstances. She was incredibly communicative, organized, professional, and the pictures she took captured all of our wonderful moments perfectly. She swooped in at the last minute and saved the day. We would highly recommend Fatima and wouldn't hesitate to use her again if we need professional photos taken in the future.

I've never been so excited to review somebody in my entire life!!! We were so lucky to have Irina as our photographer. I cannot say enough how important it is that your photographer on your wedding day is just as wonderful as a person as she is a professional at what she does. A good photographer makes you feel comfortable and effortless behind the camera. Posing parents, siblings, wedding parties, flower girls, ring bearers, and the bride and groom coming together perfectly in a crazy short amount of time? You feel like it’s IMPOSSIBLE. It’s not! I’ve heard that weddings are always not on time. The truth is it’s more worth. The rings may be forgotten, the very important guest is being extremely late, and a lot of other reasons. Irina was super patient, she captured each and every photo I wanted without me even having to make sure that she did it. Her creativity, eye for perfection, and professionalism are unbelievable. The wedding day does by so fast, and it's important to have all the moments captured. My now husband and I could not have chosen a better photographer. Everyone at the wedding was talking about how great our photographer was. Irina introduced herself to every guest and family member at the wedding and made sure she got every guests’ picture which we are so grateful! We had so many out of state guests and wanted to remember every moment with them on our best day. If you are looking for pricing that makes sense, photographer who cares about the quality, your happiness on your wedding day, and feeling confident throughout that entire day and every time you look at pictures afterwards, then look no further!

Jason is incredible. He is a talented photographer and storyteller, and a great business person to boot! He is exactly who you want your friends and family to interact with your wedding day. I would highly recommend him to any person looking to capture the essence of their wedding day and of their beloved family and friends. Regarding the business perspective: my partner and I planned our wedding from afar and from the start Jason was responsive and easy to work with. I admire that he didn’t pressure us on hurrying to book the way other photographers did and he made the time to connect with us. He was also able to process photos quickly and with high quality. Regarding the photos: we purchased his engagement and wedding day package and I could not be happier and think he was priced very competitively. My partner and I had previously had engagement photos done with another vendor and their quality was not even comparable to Jason’s. Because of Jason’s photo journalistic nature and our desire to avoid a lot of staged poses Jason built a beautiful story of us and our engagement and wedding day. His photos are striking, surprising, and beautiful. He captured heartfelt moments that I did not see during our wedding, too. Our friends and family are in love with the photos that we have shared with them and we are so honored to have had Jason capture our wedding day. I cannot wait to look at these photos for years to come and relive our wedding day!

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
Hiring Amanda (Oh Lovely Wedding) as our wedding photographer was truly one of the best decisions we made for our special day. She's a great communicator, warm, friendly, creative and also extremely patient (which we found out is extremely important on your wedding day). Amanda and her team seamlessly blended into the background, capturing the most intimate and candid moments without ever feeling intrusive. They have a true talent for capturing not just the events of the day, but the genuine emotions that go along with them. She also had a plan, found fun places to shoot, and made us feel extremely comfortable throughout. The final photo gallery left us absolutely speechless. Her attention to detail, the play of light (ours was outside in a redwood grove which isn't easy to shoot), and the artistic composition in each shot were beyond our expectations. As I mentioned, not only is Amanda exceptionally talented, she is also incredibly professional and accommodating. She went above and beyond to ensure that every request was met and even added her creative touch to make every shot even more enchanting. Thank you, Amanda (& team), for turning our wedding day into a visual masterpiece that we will treasure forever!

Hi! I'm Magaly and I am a wedding photographer based in Southern California. I love candid intimate moments. My approach is photojournalistic. I love capturing candid moments that tell the story of your special day. The laughter between friends, the tears in a mother's eyes, the stolen glances between the my couples - these are the moments that you'll want to remember forever. I am so happy you're here and can't wait to meet you!

Awarded Best of Zola
Magaly was the best photographer I could have had for my wedding! I truly have not a single negative thing to say and would love to just enthusiastically encourage anyone to book her. Her communication was thorough, she regularly set up appointments to meet, discuss expectations, and check-in. She also sent regular information emails with advice and recommendations. On the day she was early, thorough, checked in with me regularly, easy to work with, and just a calming presence to have for the day. She really moved with the flow and was all over the place capturing everything she could. I asked for several specific pictures or things that I was looking for, and she got everything. My pictures are beautiful, I keep looking at them and getting emotional. I received sneak peeks within 72 hours and was surprised how many she already had ready! Everything I could have asked for and more, Magaly did. She took extra steps to ensure that our day was wonderful and I just appreciate her so much.

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
We did a lot of shopping around for our engagement photos, and we decided to go with Russ. When we got the photos back, we knew we would never use another photographer in the bay area again. The photoshoot felt so casual, but the resulting photos looked carefully crafted to perfection. When the circumstances led to us doing a zoom elopement, we jumped at the opportunity to book Russ again. A consistent experience, with some of the most beautiful photos we've ever seen. It's hard to believe they were taken right outside our door. He has a talent for turning just about any location into an incredible work of art. During these crazy times, it's also worth noting that he wore 2 masks and was very respectful of our space to make sure everyone felt safe. 10/10 will book again.

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.

Heather photographed our wedding including first look, ceremony, dinner, and dance. Heather communicated wonderfully and asked us great questions in preparation for our big day. Heather arrived promptly and literally jumped right in by taking photos in the first minute of walking through the door. Parts of our wedding were a bit spontaneous, and Heather rolled with it without missing a beat. Heather showed professionalism and experience as she guided us with varied poses and backdrops for our photos. Beyond her photographic talent, Heather was a lovely addition to our day. Several guests commented (unprompted to do so) on how she seemed to be everywhere, catching priceless moments. Heather was efficient in organizing our group photos and demonstrated both patience and assertiveness as we had many children attending. I felt very trusting of Heather in the ways she directed us for shots and would subtly request us for photos as the sky changed. It was evident she was focused, invested, and committed to creating amazing photos for our day in a way that felt seamless. We cannot wait to see our pics and have confidence we will be blown away.

He helped during the planning phase, understood what we were looking for in terms of photos and photo style, and was kind and warm to our friends and family on the day of the event. His price was good (we shopped around). He was on time and on budget the day of the event, and super prompt (early) providing our photos to us. I originally chose him as our photographer because I liked how his portfolio showcased his talent at capturing the emotion of the day.

Living in Los Angeles has given me the opportunity to explore many beautiful places right here in my backyard, I enjoy hiking and backpacking as well as eating all of the diverse food we can find here! How did I get into Photography? A Middle School project that required us to document our everyday lives sparked that interest and I've had a camera with me since then! Having been a bride myself a few years ago, I know how important photos are. I put myself in your shoes and make sure to document all of the small details and moments as well as the can't miss big moments!

I love photos and photography was one of my must have, high quality items for our wedding. Our original photographer had to back out (with plenty of time and notice) so we found ourselves back at the drawing board several months before the wedding. I found Brenda and loved that her images showed a diverse clientele - as a plus size bride with a SO over 6’ tall, that was something that really mattered to me. By the end of our Zoom meeting I wanted to hug her! I felt confident she was the right fit. When the big day came around, not only was her presence instantly calming (things had already been going wrong that morning) but she was incredibly helpful every step of the way, including trying to find a dropped earring, closing my necklace because everyone’s nails were too long, making sure I had space to take a break when my nerves overwhelmed me. We just got some of our sneak peeks in and wow…I’m crying all over again. She captured moments between my SO and I so beautifully, you can feel the love we have for each other. It sounds cliche, but it’s true! Not only were we pleased with Brenda, our guests and wedding party all had such kind things to say about her - how many weddings have you gone to and complimented the photographer, as a guest?! If her style is one that you like, don’t hesitate to hire Brenda. I can’t wait to take more photos with her as we grow old. She was an important part of our day and, for me, the best person to have by my side throughout the chaotic day. I was so happy to have her as part of our adventurers club.
