We’re Tawni & Paul Hooper, the fun-loving husband and wife team behind the lens, dedicated to capturing your most memorable moments. We believe in creating authentic wedding experiences that are as unique and vibrant as the couples we work with. With us, you can expect a personalized, enjoyable experience that celebrates the real you. We thrive on building genuine connections with our clients, making you feel comfortable and at ease, so you can truly be yourselves. Our goal is to deliver stunning visuals that you’ll cherish for a lifetime. Join us for an unforgettable adventure, and let’s make some magic together.

Tawni was our main point of contact for both photography and videography, and she communicated with us very well, mostly over text which was my preferred method. On the wedding day itself, Tawni was super communicative all the way through the end of their time with us on the dance floor. She made sure to come tell us what was next and kept us in the loop on switching our timeline to work with the best lighting for our couples shoot but still keep our overall flow smooth. Both Tawni and Paul's work is absolutely worth every penny spent. They helped keep us on track throughout the entire day, captured everything we asked of them and more and most importantly, made photo and film fun for us and our bridal party. I could not recommend Tawni and Paul enough to anyone - they work so well together and don't get in each other's way. They are the ultimate photo and film team!

I was a nervous wreck on my wedding day. Julie chatted with me and made me feel comfortable. She did the make-up for 5 people in my wedding party, in addition to myself, all in one day! I loved my hair and make-up, and she walked me through it every step of the way, really listening to my wants. She even helped with covering up an uneven tan on my back. I still use the make-up she gave me from that day even one year later. Thank you Julie!

My makeup lasted all day. From 1-3am and I didn’t even need to touch up. I also have a “garage tattoo” on my back I absolutely hate, and wearing a strapless wedding dress I dreaded it but Paola made it possible for it to disappear for the entire night!

Photography that tells a story. Wedding films that bring you back to the moment. We are a California based wedding photography & videography team that passionately tells stories through a camera. We have 7 years of experience but a fresh set of ideas!

Beyond capturing stunning photos of the event itself, they went above and beyond by shooting incredible images of my bartending work. Their portfolio speaks for itself: the images are gorgeous and feel authentic rather than overly posed, with a boldness that really makes them stand out.

I had a trial and day of hair and makeup for my wedding. Everything turned out beautifully! I had never had my makeup done professionally so I was nervous about how it would turn out since I tend to wear my makeup more natural. Sierra was able to make my look more elevated to match the ocassion without me feeling completely over the top and not like myself makeup-wise. Highly recommend!

The most amazing experience and venue!!! It is really hard to put into words how in love my husband and I were with our wedding at The Lodge at Two Moons. We had the most incredible experience from our first planning call all the way through the wedding day. Shiloh and her team made the wedding planning so much fun and a seamless experience. It was all a blast, but of course the day of took the cake! We had the amazing opportunity to have the venue for our wedding for the full weekend, so our family and friends were able to enjoy the property all weekend. We held our rehearsal dinner and day of activities all on site. The onsite team was amazing, as well, and truly are the nicest and most thoughtful crew :) The property itself is just gorgeous and made the most amazing setting for our wedding. But, besides just the venue itself it really was The Lodge at Two Moons team that really made our wedding a dream. It was amazing to see the vision I had in my mind truly come to life and look exactly as I had imagined. Shiloh and her team made this happen and with the most professional, caring, communicative, and fun approach. It is really hard to truly explain how much we appreciate them and so happy that the whole team was a part of our day. This place is a dream and we cannot wait to plan other trips up for special celebrations. Thank you to everyone who made our day perfect!

I cried a few days before my wedding because remembering all the months prior, they were there for me every step of the way.

With a focus on creating real, authentic images, Danielle has a knack for making every subject feel at ease, resulting in photos that are as friendly and approachable as they are beautiful.

Danielle is an incredibly talented, professional, and friendly photographer. She was so easy to work with as my husband and I planned our own wedding with no prior experience. For context, my husband and I hosted a traditional Serbian Orthodox wedding. Finding someone who was willing to respect our traditions while also capturing their beauty was very important to us. Our first meeting with Danielle eased any anxiety we felt over this. She was very attentive to our specific needs and eager to make our dream wedding come true. Seeing Danielle’s portfolio and hearing about her photography experience was enough to make me love her work. But meeting Danielle in person really sealed the deal; she is very approachable, patient, and flexible while also being incredibly professional, communicative, and organized. The final photos are spectacular. Danielle’s knack for capturing candid moments brings every picture to life. My family and I couldn’t be happier with the results.

I am passionate about music, but what is most important it the client. It is my mission to meet all of their requests and provide a personalized entertainment experience. I am willing to help with tasks such as planning, sharing contacts, or being event coordinator. My ability to play various styles of music and interact with any crowd makes me the logical choice. Clients are encouraged to incorporate their unique tastes and culture into their event. "I love interacting with people, meeting new people, and helping create an atmosphere that enables people to have an experience they will never forget."

From our very first conversation through the last song of the night, JJ was organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in getting our day right. He sent over a detailed music and info document, built and split our Spotify playlists into cocktail, dinner, and dance sets, and checked in regularly to make sure nothing slipped through the cracks. When we forgot a detail, he caught it. When we had questions about amplification for our string quartet or audio for our videographer, he had a solution ready before we'd finished asking. He also ran a photo booth for us, matched our design, and handled all of it without us having to think about it. And then there was the party. JJ read the room perfectly and kept the dance floor full all night. If you want a DJ who takes the planning as seriously as the performance, book JJ. We couldn't recommend him more.

  • Serves Ahwahnee, CA

Every wedding is unique, and I believe your photography should reflect your story, your personalities, and the vision you’ve worked so hard to create. My photography style is vibrant, eye-catching, and detail-oriented, focusing on authentic moments while preserving the colors, emotions, and atmosphere that make your wedding day unforgettable. When I’m behind the camera, my goal is to capture both the big moments and the small ones. My approach is documentary & candid for most of the day, with some posed editorial shots with couples one on one. I strive to create images that feel natural, timeless, and full of life.

Choosing Convex Photography was one of the easiest (and ultimately one of the best) decisions we made for our wedding. From the moment we met John, we knew he genuinely cared about making our day as special as possible. He made my husband and me feel completely at ease, captured every meaningful moment without ever feeling intrusive, and somehow managed to preserve every emotion exactly as we experienced it. When our photos arrived, I cried all over again. Every image tells a story. Every smile, every happy tear, every embrace, every tiny detail we never wanted to forget was captured with incredible artistry and care. These are more than wedding photos—they are the memories of the best day of our lives, beautifully preserved forever. I know that years from now, we'll look back at these photographs with the same joy and gratitude we felt the first time we saw them. They are something our future family will cherish for generations, and I cannot thank Convex Photography enough for giving us that gift. If you're considering booking them, don't hesitate for a second. They are talented, kind, professional, and truly exceptional at what they do. There isn't anyone else I would have trusted to document such a meaningful and unforgettable day. They gave us memories we'll treasure for the rest of our lives, and I will recommend Convex Photography to every couple I know.

Tess sent one of her employees all the way to Fresno and back to get them and made it all seem like it was no big deal. Also, I tend to be a little camera shy and Tess did a great job of making me feel comfortable and directing us in a way to get great photos!

  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Ahwahnee, CA

We photograph weddings as stories, not performances. Our focus is always people—the relationships, the quiet gestures, the emotions that move beneath the schedule. We watch closely and direct only when it adds clarity, letting real moments unfold while shaping them into a coherent narrative that feels intimate, honest, and complete. luminous natural light, refined composition, and a calm, cinematic palette. We love architecture, negative space, and frames that feel intentional without feeling posed. Beauty matters to us, but never at the expense of truth—so the work stays elegant, modern, and deeply human.

From our first conversation, we knew The Bellissimo Weddings was the right choice for us. Their team was patient and responsive throughout the planning process, always ready to answer our questions and help us feel confident about the big day. What really set them apart was how they worked behind the scenes so we could actually enjoy our wedding instead of worrying about the camera. Our family and friends couldn't stop talking about their uplifting energy and professionalism. The photos they captured are stunning—each one feels like a perfect snapshot of our love that we'll treasure forever. We absolutely adore them for giving us beautiful images that will forever adorn our home and remind us of this fleeting moment in our lives.

The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous and provided the perfect backdrop for our celebration.
