Alexandrina Owens Photography
Petaluma, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Aptos, CA

My biggest passions are aesthetics and human connection...so weddings are naturally my favorite thing to photograph. After hundreds of weddings, I still find myself tearing up (or maybe a little more than tearing up) at almost every wedding I photograph. People describe me as being sweet and my work as having a delicate, elegant, feminine, and refined quality to it. I believe in authentic romance and real love. My favorite weddings are outdoors, featuring sweeping coastal backdrops, soaring redwoods, rolling hills, or gorgeous vineyards mixed with tastefully stylish decor - and always with a lot of love.

If you enjoy going wine tasting with friends, consider a charcuterie board an acceptable form of dinner, chocolate is it’s own food group, going on an adventure can be exploring a new country or staying in and watching your favorite show together, and finding your best friend is the best thing ever, then we are meant to be friends!! Andrew and I are so blessed to call San Luis Obispo home. We were introduced by a mutual friend in 2011 and the rest is history. We love the small-town feel with the convenience of shops and restaurants within a 15 minute drive.

The best way that I can describe myself is that I am a "dog person" when I'm out and a "cat person" behind the scenes. As a digital and film photographer, I'm very interested in unique and varied light scenarios that incorporate unique backdrops and angles. I have been working as a professional photographer for over 5 years and there is not a day where I don't find myself learning something new about it, and that to me is part of the joy. I strive for imagery that makes your eyes linger, incorporating equal parts creative beauty and technical skill. My images have been featured by GQ Magazine, David's Bridal, AirBNB, Chubbies, and more.

Diane Bagaoisan Photography
Santa Rosa, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,725
  • Serves Aptos, CA

Right after graduating from CSU Sacramento in 2012 (with a BA in Photography, might I add!), I did photography as a side-hustle while working a couple of various jobs: part-time as a Summer camp counselor and full-time at a medical device company. After getting married in 2016, I moved to Modesto with my husband since he was working there at the time. Because of the move, I had to leave my jobs in the East Bay. I took this move to the Central Valley as a sign that I should do photography full-time. So, since 2017, I've been a full-time wedding photographer. We are now in beautiful Sonoma County!

First off, my team and I are flames. We bring the heat. The fire. The fun! I’m like a mix between a professional and a early Kanye. I know when to be serious, but I also know when to start singing Whitney Houston’s, “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” (I can even hit them high notes). From the moment you inquire, to the day I send you your goods, i’ll be over using the exclamation point! Some say that’s overly enthusiastic, but life is so much better this way. I hope that this energy will make you two feel comfortable, and at ease on one of the best days of your life. So, let’s get to talkin!

There's an old Italian proverb which says: "A woman born beautiful is born betrothed." I say all brides are beautiful and that's why I think I fall in love a little bit with each of my brides. It's hard not to. I love women. When they are in their wedding day "mode" they're irresistible. Glowing and smiling and pouring out such wonderful energy I'd almost shoot wedding photography for free just to ride the endorphins. Almost. And yeah, some of the grooms are pretty cute too ;) Same sex weddings, Gay Weddings? Lesbian Weddings? Same deal, same love, same great wedding photography.

Hi, I'm Candace and I have a thing for weddings! I didn't start as a wedding photographer, I actually started as a BIRTH photographer surprisingly! I was addicted to capturing real and raw moments for families to have and relive over and over. I actually was nervous for weddings, which is why I didn't start doing them. One thing led to another and as people started asking me if I WOULD shoot their wedding, I decided to give it a try. Fast-forward to dozens and dozens of weddings later and I am obsessed!! I am a full fledged wedding photographer and I LOVE capturing every single moment of your day. The addiction is real!!

Awarded Best of Zola
When I began looking through instragram for a wedding photographer I came across Candace’s page and was instantly drawn to it. The people in her photos always look so happy and natural and the way she makes colors pop is just stunning. After contacting her I knew I made the right decision. She is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met and has great energy that’ll make you feel like you’re just hanging out with a friend. She has a true passion for what she does and is a great communicator. On our wedding day, Candace was more than a photographer. You would’ve thought she was a bridesmaid/wedding coordinator with how much she hyped us up, would check on us and asked if we needed anything. She exceeded all expectations and I cannot wait to see all the photos! Candace we cannot thank you enough for being one of the best parts of our special day! Love Jackie and Tony Winston

Hey there!! My name is Marilyn and I'm so glad you're here ♡ I am a couples + wedding photographer based in New York City, and happy to travel to wherever your day is at! I've had pink hair for the last 6 years so at this point it has become a personality trait and I'm 100% okay with it. I love the outdoors, pat every dog I can, and thrive on ben and jerry's. My ideal place to be would likely be frolicking in wildflowers in a dress that's way too long, but the longer the better. The patio of my NYC apartment with a good book is a close second favorite though, for sure.

Awarded Best of Zola
Thoughtful, kind, spunky, hilarious, down for listening to your vision, and infusing your day with her own artistic style and capturing expertise (oh, and will hike to a waterfall with you in your wedding dress): just a few ways that I can describe Marilyn! She was phenomenal to work with, all the way from engagement photos to the big day, and I cannot recommend her enough. She has a way of capturing the big moments beautifully, and even more so, the little in between moments that were such a lovely surprise when we got our photos back. It felt like a friend was along for the ride with us and no matter what little hiccups happen on the day of, you’ll know that she’ll be gifting you with some of the most gorgeous imagery of your days on the other side of it all. Above all, she is a pro and I know we will continue to support her in the coming years as our family grows and basically, any chance to work with her again!

First and foremost, congratulations! This is an exciting time! Before I begin with all the details, I would like to do away with the formalities and keep it light. Technically speaking, I’m a photographer, but honestly, since establishing my business in 2014, I would consider myself a teammate through this process. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know couples, their families, their stories, and at the end of the day, becoming a good friend. If this vibes with you, we are off to a good start :) Answering questions, transparency in communication, and prompt responses are important to me and I hope that everything I share resonates.

I'm a digital & film photographer living in NYC capturing weddings, couples, and life around me. I have a genuine love for creating images you'll look back on that'll always give you butterflies! I approach photography intentionally, and am emotionally driven behind the camera. I’m all about those in-between candids and documenting in the moment, as well as artful posing. I love making genuine connections with people, and the natural friendships that can come from working together! Approaching your wedding photography as an art form is just a small part of why I absolutely love what I do.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rebecca is everything you want in a photographer, she is so so talented and really does amazing work!! Leading up to the wedding day she helped us plan every detail of what our timeline should be as well as plan out every single photo / detail we want photographed. It really helped us plan out our day with other vendors and getting ready times, and made us feel so comfortable not one photo would be missed. The day of she got every single shot we wanted (including a few very large family photos!) and her and her assistant were such a delight to be with all day. She is so great at getting natural looking pictures and nothing looking too forced or posed, and her editing is so amazing. She sent teasers within a few days and the rest of the images in a few weeks and we were blown away by them all!! I would highly recommend her to anyone!!

Hi! I’m Justin (he/him) and I’m here to affirm your love, make you feel like a fucking rockstar, and dance like a total fool. Oh, and take so many gorgeous photos of y’all. Obvs. My style blends both documentary photojournalism and fine art photography: coaching folks who are shy in front of the camera, then stepping back to capture authentic moments uninterrupted. I’ve been lucky enough to have my work published by A Practical Wedding, The New York Times, GLAMOUR, People Magazine and many other fabulous outlets. I'm a stereotypical Capricorn that loves drag shows, campy horror films, every dog I meet, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

I love what I do. I found my way to professional photography in a roundabout way, having started my working career as a marine scientist and environmental educator in CA and then on Maui. After years immersed in the ocean and hundreds of hours spent underwater, I realized that I was happiest on days when I could adventure freely with a camera in hand. The drive to learn more and become a better photographer lead me back to school on the east coast, where I ended up finding a new dream career and a home and community that I love.

We can't recommend Laura highly enough! We did a last-minute engagement shoot and 2 micro weddings in different states during Covid, and we can't imagine doing any of it without her. We were huge fans of Laura's photos on her website, but we were absolutely hooked once we got an e-mail asking us where we wanted to travel post-Covid and if we had any pets joining the wedding. We looked at a lot of photographers, and wanted to work with someone we liked and wanted at our wedding, who would take beautiful, natural photos, and be okay including our pup. That was definitely Laura! On our first call, Laura barely batted an eye when we told her we weren't sure about the venue, didn't know if there would be 2 or 25 people, were flexible on the time, and didn't yet know what we were going to wear. We wanted to keep everything as local as possible, and she gave us a great list of suggestions, including the orchard where we got married and most of the treats we included in our picnic basket. We even had sneak peeks right away to send to our families who couldn't be there. For our second wedding, she drove 6+ hours to NY, helped us set up, and was flexible on timing when we had some surprise rain showers. And managed to take great photos of our guests from 6+ feet away, including staggered group photos so the masks could come off for a minute! We could go on and on about how great she is, but suffice it to say, we loved working with Laura!

I’m Adam—a Boston native who’s now roaming around California photographing everything I see. When I’m not behind the camera you can usually find me in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes, sipping a dirty martini with friends, jamming to Taylor Swift in the car, or taking my rescue pup Ollie to the park or on long neighborhood walks. I got my first film camera when I was 8, and it was love at first sight. Capturing your story is more than just a job for me. From destination elopements to parties of the century, I've seen it all and love every minute of a wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
I found Adam on Instagram through some friends who were recently engaged, reached out, and heard back right away. Of all the photographers I looked at, he was among the most cost effective, and immediately after our engagement session I knew I'd made the right choice. He wasn't afraid to do anything with us from coffee meet ups, to phone calls and emails answering all my questions, traveling for our engagement pics, and even carrying around my veil and making sure my makeup stayed touched up. He was so passionate about making my day, my vision, what I wanted it to be. I was also worried being a plus-sized bride that I wouldn't be comfortable in front of the camera or that all the angles would be unflattering, but I've never felt more like a model. Adam made us feel so comfortable in our skin. Go book book him. Really. For headshots, for engagement photos, for wedding photos, dog photos, life photos. Whatever you want, he's got you

I reached out to Emily to take my graduation photos, and she was very quick to respond (unlike others I reached out to) and tried her best to fit me into her busy schedule. She’s sweet and kind, and made the whole session smooth. I was particularly nervous because it was my first time in a professional photoshoot and I didn’t know what I needed to do, how I needed to pose, and be comfortable in front of the camera. She made it so easy for me, as if I’m a natural. And she was not only full of ideas but also welcoming of my own ideas! I brought a wand to make wizarding pictures, and she graciously stayed longer than our supposed booking time to make sure we take the pictures I wanted. And she even edited them to look as if I’m casting a spell!!! it was literally magical. She is relatively quick in delivering the photos; I expected them to take longer. Also, she was super helpful in giving me ideas to pose with my partner in some of the photos. Cannot recommend her more! You’re gonna enjoy your session so much!

I will do my best to stop those moments in time for you to experience forever. I am witty, goofy, sarcastic, open-minded, & honest. I will be your ultimate third wheel.

I simply cannot put into words how amazing Emily is. Her energy is vibrant and brings out the most genuine laughter and smiles from everyone. Not only did she take stunning photos that perfectly captured our wedding day, she also helped me get my boob tape situated, put my veil in and removed it. She makes everyone feel so comfortable and had our entire group laughing all day. She kept the timeline moving, but didn’t make us feel stressed or pressured. Communication and attention to detail are phenomenal and she sent us sneak peeks the day after the wedding and we had our full (HUGE) album a week later. I look forward to working with Emily for all the milestones in our lives. She truly has a gift.

LMM Photography is incredible. She's down-to-earth and proactive. She's affordable and creative. She's perfect. Hire her, you will be amazed! She made planning easy and fun. She was always available when I had questions or ideas. When it came to the big event I almost forgot she was there to take photos. She was so diligent and helped me avoid the major bridal stress. She even saved our wedding photos! A bridesmaid had a major issue with bridesmaid dress and waited until the day of the wedding to let me know. So on the big day I was doing alterations, which pushed me back by hours. I tried really hard not to let it upset me (because things happen) and I thought I had missed doing the getting ready photos--little did I know that LMM was doing her thing while I was trying not to panic because I was surprised when I received my wedding photos to see that she also took some of THE BEST getting ready photos. Not to mention, because she took initiative, she put me back on track and I literally got to the ceremony on time! I was so grateful, I cried when I finally got to see the photos knowing that someone had actually captured those memories. I have now hired her for SEVERAL photography sessions, and I will continue to do so! Thank you, Laura!!

I have been putting my decade plus of expertise into each and every one of you, from your morning mimosa to the last dance of the night. Wether we’re here in Ohio or deep in the mountains, I’ll follow where your heart leads you. Wedding days can be fleeting no matter how you spend them and you deserve someone who builds slow moments and quick thinking into the timeline. When it's all said and done, your photos will gift you the ability to be right back in those memories and reliving the joys from the day it became the two of you, forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
Ashley was absolutely wonderful! Everything was a breeze with her. From the moment we booked her, I never once had to worry about reaching out for updates or check-ins before the wedding. She always checked in leading up to our big day to give updates, ask questions, and finalize details. I realized this was so nice and convenient, because not every vendor did that and it really took some of the stress and worry off when preparing for the big day. I am 110% satisfied in choosing her to capture our wedding! I was looking for light and airy style photos, but not heavily filtered like some other styles I’ve seen. Ashley lets her pictures speak for themselves, and knew exactly how to capture every special moment. She is so just kind and fun to work with! I never felt rushed or pressured when getting our pictures taken. She went above and beyond for us and was truthfully my favorite vendor to work with. The day flowed so well with her there to guide and direct my husband and I, as well as our wedding party and family. She was able to help with the timeline by suggesting different solutions to make sure I got some of the pictures I wanted, provide direction and guidance with a group of people she just met, and capture such sweet and detailed photos. I still get so many compliments about how great our pictures turned out, and am so so so happy she was a part of our special day. Thank you Ashley!

We are SO happy with Carmelisse and her whole team. Ever since we got engaged, we already knew we wanted her as our photographer for our engagement photos and wedding. She is so easy to work with and very communicative throughout our whole planning process. She was especially easy to work with as we had to postpone our wedding due to COVID. She was flexible, understanding and compassionate during the challenging time. My husband and I are shy in front of the camera and slightly awkward, but Carmelisse knew how to make us feel comfortable and look natural in photos. She really understands how to capture authentic shots that don't look staged or posed. She was so amazing on our actual wedding day, her team was so well prepared and eased all my nerves. She is as an actual dream to work with and we received our teasers only a few days later when we got to our honeymoon!

I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

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!!

We had a wonderful experience working with Shelby! Her warmth and kindness as she directed our shoot made it easy for us to relax and feel comfortable in front of the camera, even though neither of us have much experience being photographed. Every single photo evokes feeling and captures our love so perfectly. We are so thrilled with the way they turned out and will feel so deeply grateful to Shelby forever!

Canyon & Pine: Wedding Photography + Films

Fort Worth, TX
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,700
  • Serves Aptos, CA for additional fees

Canyon & Pine is a wedding photography and videography service founded by married couple James and Emma. With a background in capturing weddings since 2013, they have developed a seamless synergy that allows them to deliver exceptional results. Their approach is characterized by getting to know the couples they work with, understanding their stories, and translating those narratives into authentic and timeless images and videos. They prioritize creating a comfortable and safe space for all couples, supporting love in all its forms, and ensuring that every wedding day feels uniquely personal and true to the couple's identity.

I picked Canyon and Pine because they did well my sister’s wedding, and they were even better at mine! I doubt there’s anyone as good as they are in their price range. Their editing skills are top-notch, and they shared really helpful information about what to wear for our free engagement session so we could be prepared. They suggested a lot of good poses, although some of them felt a little awkward. Beyond posing us, they didn’t provide a lot of guidance or do much to help us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Like with any photographer, request a full wedding’s worth of sample photos so you can understand their style. They were flexible and made adjustments to their style for us, but some of our family still wasn’t happy with the colors in the final pictures. I was – it was a great deal, and I didn’t need every shot to be perfect. They are very focused. During the wedding, they took schedule changes and unusual locations into stride. My mom even commented on the fact that they seemed to be having a good time. They caught a lot of wonderful spontaneous moments, and I’m so happy we picked them. After the wedding, one of the photographers had an emergency situation. They still communicated clearly and professionally under very difficult circumstances and got the pictures to us.

Welcome. I’ve been a make-up artist, chocolatier, a barista, a pet-sitter, a bartender but I’ve always been “that girl with the camera.” (I’ve also been, “that girl who sleeps on our couch” or “that girl who’s booty I saw in the newspaper” but I digress…). Currently, I base my photography business in Petaluma, CA. I grew up in Sonoma County but in my early 20’s I picked up and moved to Manitoba and that’s where I stayed for many years. Upon my return to CA in 2013 I turned my passion for photography into a career. It’s been a journey to call photography my profession, but I’ve always been a photographer and I’ve always been an artist.

Loren is truly amazing at her job. Clear communication, perfect coordination day-of, and INCREDIBLE results.

My husband and I have been through too many photographers we lost count. Either scheduling was a nightmare, not “natural” to work with, or we simply HATED our pictures. We are so blessed to have found young photography! Since then, we refuse to go to anyone else for ALL our photo needs. Our entire home is filled with photos that they took on our walls. They are amazing to work with, so easy going. Our photos ALWAYS turn out amazing and that’s rare! It’s hard to pick a favorite. Love them and so grateful to have them be apart of capturing our family’s journey!!

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's style of photography is immediately recognizable; soothing tones with an eye that designs a photo straight out of a movie scene. I have been so fortunate to work with her and see her in action. Her presence is one of decisive and calming energy. I have been amazed again and again at how she innovates in the moment, creating something that was hum drum into a magical or enlightening method or way of doing something. I can't recommend her enough for your wedding day and all special moments 3

She was flexible and super communicative, especially when it rained on the day of our engagement photos, which really helped to calm our nerves and make the session comfortable and fun. She stepped right into the flow of things on our wedding day and kept everyone on schedule and in good spirits. The photos came back better than I could've imagined and our guests haven't stopped talking about them. To say that McKenna is talented would be an understatement and I'll certainly be asking her to capture the rest of our big life moments!
