Hi! My name is Marsha and I am a wedding and lifestyle photographer in Central California with over 15 years of experience. I love going above and beyond for my clients giving them the ultimate experience!

Awarded Best of Zola
“Marsha is everything we were looking for in a wedding photographer! During our wedding planning journey, Marsha shared in our excitement with her enthusiasm & expertise from countless weddings. She helped us develop our wedding storyline as we made revisions to our photo list. She was organized, and communications with her were seamless. On our wedding day, she worked so well and took such leadership with our content creator, videographers, and wedding coordinators. Marsha and her 2nd shooter Sadie captured the authentic expressions and movement of our wedding day. Seeing our final album was such a treat. The photos are beautiful and with incredible narrative depth. The lighting was fantastic! We are so grateful to have our first family heirloom captured beautifully.”

“I without a doubt did the right thing by hiring Jones Media and choosing both Regina (photographer) and Kevin (videographer) to shoot our vow renewal at Paddlefish at Disney Springs in Orlando, FL. They both brought the energy and the hype, and they have the absolute best personalities. They were incredibly professional the entire time, and I had no idea that they had never worked together before my event! They collaborated seamlessly, bouncing ideas off one another and making everything even more perfect. They honestly didn’t feel like hired vendors—they felt like guests we invited who were having just as much fun as we were, while still staying completely on task. To top it off, they are complete lifesavers. The night before our renewal, we hit a major hiccup. Due to a last-minute policy change at our Disney resort, our third-party vendors were suddenly not permitted on the property. With no other choice, I had to cancel our resort reservations late at night and move everything back to my parents' timeshare. I immediately messaged Kevin and Regina about the last-minute location change. The next morning, they both showed up right on time and completely ready to go. Because we kept our original timeline, the new location meant we were a little farther away from the venue, but neither Kevin nor Regina ever made us feel rushed. We just pivoted, and they went completely above and beyond—even staying a little past their scheduled end time to make up for the chaos the night before. In the Disney world, we call that Pixie Dust, and they definitely brought it with them. If I had to do this all over again, I’d choose them again and again. I can’t wait to see how the final photos and video turn out. Thank you, Jones Media!”

“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!”

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Randall did an absolutely amazing job as our wedding photographer! The quality of his photos truly exceeded our expectations—every shot was beautifully captured and full of emotion. He was incredibly helpful with posing, which made a huge difference and helped us feel confident in front of the camera. What really stood out was how comfortable he made us feel throughout the entire day. He was polite, professional, and brought such a fun, positive energy that made the experience even more enjoyable. We also appreciated how flexible and efficient he was. Whenever I wanted to step away from photos to say hi to our guests, he worked quickly and seamlessly to keep everything on track without making us feel rushed. We’re so grateful for his work and would highly recommend Randall to anyone looking for a talented and easygoing photographer!”

“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”

Leave it to us and make the 2nd best decision of your life, after choosing to marry your loved one, of course :)

Awarded Best of Zola
“We recently received our photos and video package from Aladdin Films and we couldn't be happier with the results. Their documentary film was extraordinary—it let us relive our wedding day in a way that felt genuine and special. The team responded quickly to all our questions and kept everything professional from start to finish, which made the planning process smooth. Towards the end of the night, we realized we never signed our marriage license. When I asked Ali if they could stay for a few extra minutes to capture those moments, they agreed without hesitation. All our photos and videos came back on time and are truly beautiful. One thing we wish is that they had been a bit more assertive when organizing our family photos as we didn't end up with every shot/ family groupings requested on our list. We do have a larger family which can also lead towards more chaos as you can imagine. Of course part of this was a timing issue as all photos with bride and groom together needed to be done within cocktail hour as we did not do a first look. Overall, Aladdin Films delivered exactly what we needed to remember our special day and we were absolutely thrilled with our choice to work with them. I would definitely recommend Ali and the team going forward.”

“We hired Alexandra and her Sister Michele for a wedding their package came with a complimentary engagement session. We met Alexandra for the first time. Our first impression is as soon as she started talking she made us feel at ease. She took charge of the session, posing and directing us in many ways. My husband isn't the type to want to do photos ever and she had him smiling the entire time. By the end of our engagement session, it felt like we had known her for years. Fast forward to our wedding day, everything was going wrong. When Alexandra arrives she notices my face and right away goes and takes charge. She directed all the vendors to where they needed to be she made sure no one bugged me as I was getting ready. The entire night they were capturing everything without being asked. they made sure that we had pictures with almost every single guest. they took almost 4000 photos and provided them all to use edited within 3 months. They didn't charge us extra most of my friends were surprised when I shared that with them as most photographers charge extra after so many edits. I highly recommend them both they make it so easy to talk to and the booking process was really easy. I am forever grateful I had them capture our day. Gave us so many memories to look back on”

“We had a fantastic time working with Hannah and Matt for photography and videography at our wedding. They were very professional and were very good about keeping up with timelines and getting things moving. Having a large wedding party (25), we were worried about how we were going to make everyone fit well in the photos, but they did a great job capturing multiple angles of everyone. We just got our sneak peeks back and they are amazing. Before the wedding we were able to communicate with them what we wanted in terms of types of shots, day of timeline, and feel of the video. With how chaotic the day felt, working with Hannah and Matt on our couples shots made us feel more connected. Honestly, the best money we spent on our wedding.”

“Wow… I don’t even know where to start, but the stars literally aligned with Dani (and Jed) from Elle & Co Photography. I found Dani while scrolling bridal Facebook groups, which can be… a lot. Trying not to assume the worst from all the horror stories. I came across her and immediately knew she was it. I sent the message and crossed my fingers. Her photos were exactly the vibe we were going for. We chose to elope near Sleeping Bear Dunes for a reason… the color of the water, the fall tones, all of it. And Mother Nature gave us the most imperfectly perfect day. Wind, sand, rain… you name it. THANKFULLY we had Dani to capture it all. The amount of time, energy, and care she put into our day (and our reception back in Indy... we booked her for both) was beyond anything we expected. Her communication was top notch. She scouted, scouted, and then scouted again. Plans, backup plans, backup backup plans… which we absolutely needed. Most importantly she kept us on. time! We literally showed up to our ceremony spot and got hit with a “nope, not today” thanks to a government shutdown… even though we had permits and confirmations. But Dani already had her little hidden gem location ready to go, and it ended up being incredible. Like… better than what we had originally planned. And let’s talk about the conditions… late October on Lake Michigan, 25 mph winds, sand flying everywhere, and easily 10,000 steps trekking through dunes to chase the best views. Dani was everywhere at once making sure we got every shot. And Jed… running through sand like he trained for this moment. The two of them together are the dream team. Whatever it takes, they make it happen. They didn’t miss a single moment. From travel time to the ceremony, to the little in-between shots… even getting the perfect fall leaves shot with the Sleeping Bear Dunes sign (yes, it took a plenty of tries and yes, it was worth it). Champagne, lanterns, sparklers back at the domes… they captured all of it. And gave us just enough direction so we looked our best without ever feeling staged. And even after all of that, Dani went back and edited like crazy to balance out the fact that while we "looked fine"… we were most definitely freezing. The final photos are unreal. Our day was made by friends, family, and chosen family… and we’re so happy to add Dani and Jed to that circle. #PhotosToFriends for life!”

“Josh was super amazing! Not only did he do a great job photography wise but, he was super helpful and accommodating to all of the chaos that occurred on my wedding day. He also tried to ensure that the vibes are not awkward and tries to keep things comfortable. During the engagement shoot my husband and I had with him, he would say something funny that would break the tension and awkwardness and make us laugh and feel comfortable. I would definitely recommend him infinity times over!”

“Working with Beth and Brian Hogan was an absolute joy from start to finish. They communicated openly throughout the planning process, walking me through their approach and showing me real-time previews of how shots would look—which completely eased my mind about the final product. What impressed me most was their collaborative spirit; they didn't just follow my mood board, they brought it to life in ways I hadn't even imagined. Their dedication to quality was evident in every detail, and their kindness and professionalism made the entire experience feel seamless. They're the kind of vendors you can trust completely, and I'd absolutely work with them again without hesitation.”

“Hire Lo. You won't regret it. Not only does she know what she is doing in terms of getting all the planned shots, she got incredible candid shots and live shots of my groom and I, our families, and our guests. As we've been looking back so far at our pictures, we get to relive the emotion of the day. It's the intangible thing that an incredible photographer can do--capture the emotion. I can feel our joy radiating out of our photos and I am so grateful I hired Lo. Years from now we are going to get to experience this day over-and-over because the quality of her photos is incredible. The variety of shots she was able to get makes it seem like she had second shooter (but she's just that good). Our first look was perfect. She made sure we got some golden hour shots and then got us right back to dinner so we could eat. She also is incredible at giving minor adjustment tips to make sure we weren't doing anything weird with our hands lol. Additionally, and this was big for me, working with her ahead of the wedding she reminded me how to be excited for this day. Wedding planning was stressful, but every time I got to talk to Lo she got me back to a place of being excited and joyful. The day-of when she showed up, she helped make sure we had everything covered, and kept me calm even when some things went wrong. I felt like I not only had a great photographer, but a friend who had my back and wanted to make sure my day went perfect. I am so glad we hired Lo. My groom teared up looking back at some of these photos. Hire Lo!”

My love for photography began as young as 12 but the passion came as soon as I welcomed my first son, Liam. Motherhood is a busy busy life and the camera keeps all the memories fresh. I love, love. Nothing makes me smile bigger than a surprise engagement, or the welcoming of a new baby. I really try to get to know my clients and visualize their lives before I even attempt to capture their story - because that story is what MAKES the shot!
