The Best Fine Art Wedding Photographers in Arroyo Grande, CA

Hello, I’m Megan! Legacy preserver, fine art creator, wedding photographer...and completely-obsessed dog mom. (Send me an email with a picture of your fur baby attached and see how fast I respond!) Of all the things I could share about My Sun and Stars and my work as a wedding photographer, here’s the first thing I want you to know: I don’t believe in imposing a mood onto your memories. Trendy edits, filters, and lighting choices don't add anything to the meaningful moments you share on your wedding day. In fact, they can actually detract from your remembrance of them.

I'm a California native with a wanderlusting soul. I grew up in the snowy mountains of Lake Tahoe and spent my teenage years in the rainforests of Costa Rica before returning to the West Coast of the United States to study the art of wedding photography and earn my BFA with Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara, California.

Hello! I'm Mike:) I'm a Christian and dedicated father to my 3 amazing children. Some of my favorite things are adventuring, travelling, eating, reading, seeing the Angels play and going to all kinds of concerts. I am also an avid Spartan racer!

Hi, I'm Kristyn Villars. I am a fine art wedding photographer based out of the beautiful Central Coast of California, but will happily travel to wherever your love story takes you. I love to visit and experience new places! I have always been fascinated with freezing moments in time to inspire emotion. The details, life's little moments, that's where we exist. There's something romantic about being able to document a couple's love story! My style can be described as authentic, candid, and photojournalistic, where I specialize in outdoor wedding photography. Your golden hour photos will be your favorite photos from your wedding day, I promise!

Allyson has been a creative being since her feet hit the earth. She's inspired by the beauty surrounding all of us, but tends to capture it in a way not seen by everyone. Love for photography found Jill working with Allyson 9 years ago, Allyson quickly realized Jill's talent and her radiant demeanor in working with people. Jessica came walking through the studio door in 2010 for an editing position and Allyson knew the moment she walked in, she would be a part of the team. Dressed to the “T” and accessorized with a happy smile, she’s worked in nearly all capacities of AM Photography over the past 6 years.

I’M SO GLAD YOU’RE HERE!… and I’m guessing you’re here because you have a story to tell. Well, guess what? I’m here to help you create that story. You’re the writer, and I’m the illustrator. There are so many important chapters in your story, and sometimes, it’s hard to remember them all. Whether it’s your graduation, your wedding, your pregnancy, or starting your own business, I’ll be with you along the way; not just so you can remember that special time in your life… but so you can remember how you felt during that time.

Tina has a background in social sciences which feeds her love for learning about people and different cultures. Even though she has an ongoing case of wanderlust, she loves California and wouldn’t want to live anywhere else.

I’m Edgar, an HTX-raised native with Salvadorian roots. I am the owner, creative director, and lead photographer at Anchor Studios Photography.

Hi! My name is Madison, but you can call me Maddi. Raised in Maryland, I've lived in Colorado, South Dakota, and Germany. I now live in San Diego with my husband and our two dogs. I've always had a love for photography and I feel privileged to bring my passion to life. I want my photos to capture the genuine feeling of the moment and to reflect you and your story.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Hello there! I'm Andrea, owner of Amative Creative, and every weekend we're so blessed to be able to tell the love stories of so many amazing couples. Like many others in this industry might say, we simply adore weddings. But what makes us a little different is our entire brand is centered around telling love stories specifically curated to reflect your vision and aesthetic. "Amative" means to be prone to love, so as you can see, we want nothing more than to tell your love story! But what makes us truly unique is that we understand every love story looks different. And we personalize every aspect of how we document your wedding day!

With over a decade of experience in the wedding industry, I believe your wedding day deserves to be remembered as more than a collection of moments — it should feel like a rich story, with visceral emotions coursing through each scene. As a former wedding planner turned photographer, I document each chapter with an editorial eye and a genuine heart. My approach is guided by light and emotion, both intentional and effortless. Every image is composed with purpose, full of honesty and elegance, and alive with feeling. Your story is already extraordinary. My work ensures it’s remembered that way — beautifully, and forever.

Hello lovely! Let me introduce myself—I’m Sarah. Welcome to my little creative space—I hope you love it here & make yourself at home. My goal as your photographer is to put you at ease and therefore be able to capture your moments authentically and beautifully. As a film and digital photographer ("hybrid" if you will!), I take a big step back to capture your memories with intention, love, and honesty - my promise to you, is to treat your day as if it were my own. Film is my favorite medium to capture wedding days on, as I feel it brings back a level of authenticity, imperfection, and refined elegance that is irreplaceable.

We began our business in Scottsdale, in 2009 and in that time we have worked with hundreds of amazing couples. We had a poor experience with our own wedding photography and it was devastating - it was then that we knew that we needed to enhance the options available to couples like you! Our passion for our work goes beyond a love for photography and an eye for the details because the most precious thing we could ask for is to be part of two peoples special day. When you are involved in someone’s wedding you get to know them, their families, why they love one another, and that bond is important to us every single time.

My name is Mari, and I'm so thankful for many aspects of my life, including traveling the world. Photography and traveling are the two pillars that allow me to express my creativity.

My pursuit of impeccable details pushes me to continually evolve my vision while reminding me of the importance of carrying my camera with humor, compassion, and curiosity.

I'm so happy you're here! My name is Lena and I'm all about the "spices of life" thanks to my strong Scandinavian roots. My studio started and currently resides in the fields of the Santa Ynez Valley, and spans to the beautiful landscapes, architecture, and vibrant vibes of Santa Barbara County.
