Wedding Photographers in Bear Valley, CA

Hello! I’m Julie Crawford, the passionate creator behind Magnolia + Ember. I live in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains and specialize in crafting wildly intentional wedding experiences in destinations around the world.

Camden Ashley Photography is a talented photography service based out of the greater Sacramento area. Camden specializes in weddings, engagements, and other joyous occasions. He began his journey in photography when he was 12 years old with his first film camera and throughout the years he has been honing his craft to create beautiful, memorable images. He continues to offer services throughout Northern California and across the US. Taking his passion for photography and love of film he offers beautiful high quality digital and film images. Today, he dedicates his time to crafting precious photographs from your happiest moments.

Since purchasing my first camera in 2013, a spark was ignited inside of me and my passion for photography grew. I love how creative you can be and all that a single picture can portray. For a while, it has been a hobby outside of working fulltime, but with every photoshoot my wife and I complete, I know that this is something I want to full pursue. As a team, Maegan and I hope to bring your visions to life and capture all of life's moments for you to cherish. I can't wait to work with you!

We love to capture the light in life. We are a creative and queer team based in California, and willing to travel anywhere in the name of love. We have over 10 years experience shooting high end portrait and wedding photography. From engagements on the beach to weddings in museums, we want to capture the light in your love story.

I've never been much for tradition, so you can imagine weddings were never really my "thing" when I first picked up a camera. Luckily, I found that the wedding industry has been evolving away from the old cookie-cutter format and that is what keeps me doing what I do. My favorite weddings are the ones where you & your partner's personalities show throughout the day rather than getting lost in all the things you "have" to do. I love being part of a day filled with so much love & excitement and what I aim to do is find you in all of it. Because weddings aren't about fitting into a mold anymore - they're about you getting to celebrate your love.

As your storyteller, my promise is to capture your love with a naturalistic approach, creating timeless photos that evoke a sense of nostalgia. Your wedding or elopement day is full of emotions and I'll be right there to capture them all. I balance a fine line of guidance and direction for posed and spontaneous moments throughout the day.

Hi, I am Sebastien. I am a French photographer based in the Sacramento area of Northern California, perfectly located between some of the most amazing mountains, coastline and wine country in the world.

We tell terrible jokes and play stupid pranks on each other. We hold hiking in the mountains and playing board games at home with the same amount of love in our hearts. We "foster" dogs. We're using quotations because we keep adopting them. But above all, we really love our life together. Both the living and the working. We have the best daughter in the world and are slowly building a small but mighty zoo (3 dogs, 1 hamster, and two frogs.) They say opposites attract, we say opposites make the best team.

I love visual storytelling, because in essence, it is a part of human experience. All in all, memories is the most precious asset we hold on to. It is waterproof; it is fire proof, alas, not so much time proof. People say time heals all wounds, but unfortunately, it erases memories too... Until we are reminded of them again, like looking through an album or watching your wedding video. Then all of a sudden, you remember what you were doing, how you felt that day, what happened before and after. Pictures and videos are tools to keep our stories alive, so we can share them over family dinners and gatherings over generations.

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!

Benjamin and Kelsey met at a coffee house when Kelsey was a cute girl with a camera in hand. Needless to say, they discovered that they had a mutual passion for more than just photography. We are chasers of our next adventure. Whether that be on a windy mountaintop, or in a deep valley for intimate quite moments. We are obsessed with capturing images of our couples that truly resonate with them.
