Alexandria Vail Photography

  • Serves Alpaugh, CA

Hi! I'm Alex, and I accidentally fell into wedding photography in 2015 when I was covering for a sick photography friend. I had no idea that the least amazing thing about weddings are the pictures (what?!). Let me explain, the moments that I get to experience when two sides of a family come together to celebrate their loved ones for the first (and most likely last time simultaneously) is a kind of a magic you have to experience in order to appreciate. It's pure magic. Trying to capture the feeling of that once in a lifetime experience is what drives me, and all of your beautiful details, decor, and portraits are a very close second!

Book Alexandria for your wedding or any special event! You will be so happy. Alexandria was a dream to work with. She went above and beyond. She is very professional and super talented. We are absolutely in love with our engagement session and wedding photos. Alex made us feel so comfortable. She truly captured the best moments. We loved her energy, she was a joy to work with. We are so thankful to have her be a part of our wedding day. We will continue to use her to capture all of our life moments and will forever cherish our lovely photos.

Leydi effortlessly coordinated family members and took care of tasks that even other vendors should have handled. Their professionalism and fun-loving attitude made the day even more memorable.

Unmatched, epic, insanely talented artist and masterpiece! We truly cannot say enough incredible things about Julia Goldberg. From the very first email, zoom meetings, to the moment she arrived at our hotel the morning of our wedding to the very last minute eight hours later, she was the definition of professionalism, talent, and calm energy. Julia gave my husband and I our dream wedding day in every sense of the word. Her attention to detail, direction, and posing skills made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, and she somehow managed to keep everything running smoothly while still making it so fun and natural. She was an absolute ROCKSTAR the entire day, anticipating moments before they happened and capturing them so beautifully and effortlessly. When working with her, you feel as if you’ve known her your whole life. Beyond her impressive talent, Julia is just an amazing person to be around. She is personable, friendly, kind, funny, and so outgoing—it honestly felt like we had a close friend by our side all day. That kind of presence made such a difference and allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment of our wedding day. And the sneak peek photos… omg we were BEYOND blown away and I cried tears of joy and am still at a loss for words looking at them everyday! Receiving them in less than 48 hours was already impressive, but the photos themselves were beyond anything we could have imagined—stunning, romantic, emotional, and perfectly capturing the magic of our day. She is worth every penny and more! From the day I found her Instagram and website, I knew there was no other photographer I could use for our wedding. Whether you’re getting married at the iconic San Francisco City Hall, on a Safari in Africa, or under the northern lights, she has the itinerary mapped out to a T and gives you the resources to make your day absolutely seamless while always keeping you in the loop and making you feel important and valued. It was truly a dream come true to have Julia as our wedding photographer. We could not have had a more treasured and memorable day without her, and we will be forever grateful. 10000000/10 experience and I want to get married over and over just to have her shoot us again! Thank you again, Julia-you made my wedding dreams come true️

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 present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day.

These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

What an amazing experience! Michelle is truly one of the best photographers out there. She captured our surprise proposal beautifully! She even gave us Polaroids immediately following our session. She’s truly an artist. We have gotten so many compliments on just our sneak peek photos alone. My favorite one so far has to be “These pictures are stunning! Please pass her info along to us!” We have passed her info along to multiple friends who have asked already. I was so nervous getting all the fine details in place after weeks and weeks of prepping. Michelle was able to coordinate with our venue and make everything work so seamlessly. Michelle had everything and more when it came to having multiple cameras/ styles. You get quality and quantity. We are so happy with everything. My fiancé and I knew we were in great hands from start to finish. She captured exactly what we were looking for. She gave us great direction and made everything so effortless and comfortable. I am not the most comfortable in front of a camera so that is saying a lot! Cannot wait to use her for our future pictures/events. Truly a master at her craft! 10/10 experience. So glad we chose Michelle Gunn photography.

I’m Peter, the guy behind Bedrosian Photo. I photograph weddings, people, parties, emotion, chaos, and all the weird little moments in between. I care way more about honesty than perfection — the nervous energy before a ceremony, your drunk uncle on the dance floor, your grandma crying quietly in the corner, or the split-second look your partner gives you when they think nobody’s watching. Those moments matter more than anything staged ever could.

Awarded Best of Zola
We've known Peter for years and have always been fans of his work. My husband and I are both super uncomfortable in front of the camera—we’re not traditional, and I personally hate being posed. Honestly, I didn’t expect much… but then Peter sent us teaser photos the very next morning, and I was completely blown away. The photos looked like art. He captured us in such a natural, beautiful way. Peter’s work is truly the best, and we are forever grateful.

Madison's not just someone with a camera and capability, she's a photographer with a natural good eye as well. We appreciated her clean subject alignments/angles and more true-to-color editing and were very impressed by the pictures we got back from reception, where we had pretty complex indoor lighting: A whole wall of windows behind us most of the time and then dark brown ballroom lighting into the evening (@Loews Hotel). Not to mention, we asked her to minimize using flash as a personal preference and she was so receptive and remembering of that too. Communicating with her was like talking to a friend. She was responsive, engaged, and inclusive. Could go on and on, but her images speak for themselves because she is consistent both in her photography style as well as personality!
