  • Serves Calabasas, CA

My name is Sergio. My wife Desirée and I run LOVE by Sergirée together out of Los Angeles. I have been behind a camera for 15 years and weddings are where I do my best work. I shoot every wedding personally and edit every gallery myself, so what you see in our portfolio is exactly what you get. Desirée leads everything you cannot see, from the first email to the final album. Whether you are planning an intimate ceremony or a celebration with a full guest list, our approach is the same. Be present. Be honest. Let the moment unfold.

“From the initial communication all the way to the delivery of the photos, Sergirée were great to work with. They were super friendly, patient, and flexible with the entire process. During my actual wedding/celebrations, Sergio just had a chill and approachable demeanor about him that I really appreciated. Our wedding wasn't the most structured, so I was worried about getting the "right" shots, but Sergio was great at guiding for poses, and just always at the right place at the right time to catch so many beautiful moments. Also, they work super fast! We received our highlight shots and full gallery very quickly. Book them!!”

Hobbyist coffee brewer, professional nap taker, and sucker for raw moments and authentic emotions. Dedicated to documenting the beautiful moments as they unfold. Based in Southern California & available worldwide.

“From start to finish, Yin was so much more than just our photographer, he truly felt like a friend. From our engagement photos to our wedding day and everything in between, he was there every step of the way. He went above and beyond, from venue meetups to thoughtful location scouting, making us feel completely supported and at ease throughout the entire process. His co-shooter, Nika, was equally incredible—professional, kind, and such a calming presence on the day. Together, they made the entire experience feel effortless and fun, while still capturing every meaningful moment so beautifully. Honestly, Yin doesn’t even need reviews (his work speaks for itself) but we feel so grateful to have worked with someone so talented, genuine, and invested in telling our story. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to document such an important chapter of our lives.”

  • Serves Calabasas, CA

I took up photography at the ripe age of 11 with a Polaroid I borrowed from an aunt. It quickly became my sketchbook as I worked to capture stills of the world and people around me. Those images have continued to pay emotional dividends throughout my life, helping me better understand what I have now come to see through a new scope. They are grounding, melancholic, funny and beautiful. Some of my most cherished possessions.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Choosing Daniel from Indigo West as our wedding photographer was hands down one of the best decisions we made. From our first conversation, we loved his calm, thoughtful demeanor and his organic, artistic approach to capturing the day. His eye for composition and detail is exceptional and the photos truly tell a story. As a same-sex couple, we wanted someone who could move beyond traditional wedding clichés, capture the grandeur of our museum venue (complete with dinosaur skeletons) while making it feel intimate, and handle dark, dramatic spaces. Daniel did all of that and more. He captured the energy, emotion, laughter, and joy of the day beautifully. Daniel was efficient but never rushed. He was professional yet playful, and it felt like he immediately understood our dynamic as a couple and with our guests. We trusted his vision completely, and it absolutely shows in the photos. Most importantly, Daniel brought such a fun, relaxed energy—it never felt like he was just doing a job. We can’t recommend him enough.”

“So I found Tom online on Bark and literally had no idea what I was doing, what costs were for a photographer, felt really overwhelmed and didn’t want to mess up by getting a bad photographer. It must had been God because the first person I connected with was Tom and BOY did I hit it right on the money! Thank you Jesus! Right away, he was very helpful at explaining everything, I felt comfortable with him and he was at a very affordable price. He answered my literal million questions and offered an engagement shoot for a next to nothing price! At the engagement shoot, I knew I had found the right photographer! He was funny, personable, made my now husband (who is not a fan of his picture being taken) feel very relaxed and comfortable and took the most gorgeous photos! He even recommended the place after I described what I was looking for. Engagement shoot day….. PERFECT! I loved that I did not have to wait long for my photos, I loved that he told us how to pose when we needed directions, I loved that he made us laugh the whole time. All the way up to the wedding, Tom was very easy to get ahold of, made himself very available to go over things and ideas and gave input when I asked for it. This man has so many years in the wedding Industry and it shows! He’s so knowledgeable about everything! Last minute I decided I needed a videographer and Tom was able to recruit Christian, who also, WAS AMAZING! Christian also was very personable, made us feel comfortable and was helpful to get us to do and say what we needed to get great video shots! Okay, wedding day!!! Tom showed up perfect timing, right when I was getting my makeup done and the guys were getting ready. He got amazing photos and my husband told me he even helped the guys do their ties because they didn’t know what they were doing… lol. Every single one of my wedding party couldn’t say enough good things about Tom and Christian. How funny Tom was, how Christian was such a detail person and saw everything little thing, how they really knew what they were doing and were both very professional. Tom took literally thousands of photos and I have been going through them every day, reliving my amazing day! Tom is a rockstar and so is Christian! They made my day perfect down to every little detail I asked for. I am so impressed with how many beautiful pictures I have. My husband and I can now look at our photos and relive every second of that day! Tom and Christian went above and beyond for us and I highly recommend for any occasion! We are definitely using him in the future and referring him to everyone we can. Thank you Tom and Christian.”

I'm a digital and film Wedding Photographer in Los Angeles, CA. I'm trilingual and multicultural -- and it's my favorite thing about me. I will travel Southern California for your love story, from San Diego to LA, to Santa Barbara. My style is documentary and photojournalistic with a bit of an editorial and creative charm. I do not bend and sway with the trends of the current day, instead I focus on your unique wedding day to capture timeless imagery. As the moments unfold before me, I will help tell your story. I want you to look back on your images and be able to still feel the emotions within them for decades to come, truly.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I’ll be honest… when planning my wedding, something I was very nervous about was my wedding photos. I am a very camera shy person and was anxious about being the center of attention when it came to my wedding day. But working with Fatima made it so easy and seamless! Initially we didn’t plan on doing engagement photos, but Fatima includes them in her wedding package and they turned out great! My husband and I didn’t have much experience in front of the camera and it helped us break the ice and be more comfortable with photos when it came to the actual wedding day. Fatima really takes the time to make sure you are comfortable and yourselves, which we both really appreciated. From the introductory video call to the emails and texts leading up to the wedding day, we felt supported and confident in our photographer and vendors. The actual day itself was a piece of cake for us, even in front of the camera!”

Welcome to Michael Teddy Photography, where artistry meets storytelling and your moments are preserved for a lifetime. I believe exceptional photography is about connection, vision, and capturing the authentic soul of your story. From our first conversation to your final gallery, you can expect a dedicated experience. Blending technical precision with an artistic approach, I frame the moments that matter most while thoughtfully editing every frame to perfection. Let’s create something breathtaking together.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Weddings are indeed stressful. The whole process of trying to figure out what our kids wanted, needed or desired for their wedding creates a situation where there are just too many options out there and it gets confusing or even overwhelming. With Michael’s experience, he was able to cut through a lot of the questions and made things very very simple and manageable. His discussion with the happy couple beforehand gave him an idea as to where he wanted to go in a direction with the photos was a nice considerate touch. He arrived earlier in the day to work out all the finer details with the facility and during the wedding and even after made everything, not only very easy but fun and entertaining for everybody who participated. The quality of the photos and the uniqueness and time put into each one of them may this a great experience. I can’t recommend him enough.”

“I have known Jordan for a while as an event photographer and wasn't sure if he did grad pictures, especially for groups. I was pleased to figure out that he does grad photos too and is extremely flexible about it! I had a group of around 11 people, and he was able to give me quick responses about the rate, which was an absolute deal. Jordan really cares for his clients and makes sure that everything is discussed before the event, including an itinerary. He was extremely flexible if we needed an extra hour and potential location itinerary changes. Coordinating 11 people for a photo shoot is not easy, but Jordan managed to do it with ease, attention to detail, and efficiency! Thanks to his expertise and creativity with poses and shots, we got some amazing solo and group shots that we will remember for a lifetime. He magically makes the experience very efficient, but is also not afraid to have fun! Highly recommend!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“Working with Carmelisse was a dream come true! She did both our engagement and wedding photos. With all of the ups and downs of planning a wedding during Covid, she made the process seamless with her communication and informative emails. Which was greatly appreciative. I was contacting several photographers who just sent “links” that didn’t say much. Which I feel at the beginning stages of a planning a wedding , information is important, and Carmelisse understands that, and gives you all needed details. She came highly recommend from three people (and they were absolutely right)! She did amazing at not just capturing “posed” shots, but the “candid” moments. The photos we never knew we needed, yet are absolutely grateful for. For the engagement shot, it was myself, my husband and our active four year old son! Carmelisse rolled with not only our awkwardness but the wildness of us chasing our son around. She found a way to balance us out and capture the love in every moment. On our wedding day, she knocked it out the park! Every guest and family member was raving about Carmelisse and her team! She was efficient, kind, professional and fun! She out did herself with accomplishing our “Hollywood glam” look and capturing everyone in there best moments! Another big thing, I love about Carmelisse is her delivery of photos, she sticks to her timeline that she gives, and her presentation of photos is not only beautiful, but organized (which made it easy to navigate). Thankful for everything that Carmelisse brought to the table with her experience! She is a 10/10!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“Remo was our wedding photographer in 2016 when we eloped, and again in 2016 when we had a bigger ceremony with friends and family. I could go on and on about how much I loved my pictures, but I want to talk about the human behind the lens. Remo is such a genuinely kind person, and has such an ease with which he handles clients. I felt so relaxed with him and it made our time together flow smoothly. I also spoke to him in great detail about the visions I had for both days, and he went above and beyond to make sure I had the day I wanted to have and the memories I wanted to capture. Finally, nearly 10 years later, I could no longer find my pictures, and I reached out to him because we'd lost our beloved family pet. I had no idea if he would even remember me, let alone still have our pictures. Within 10 minutes of my call, I got a message from him with my pictures from 2016. I got to have the treasured picture of our sweet dog, which has made my heart heal just a little bit more smoothly. I love the work he did for us, but I love even more the professional behind the lens, with the human touch, that has made all the difference! Would recommend without hesitation!”

I am passionate about the humanity and compassion I infuse into my work and making genuine connections with the people who choose me as a Photographer, Coordinator, or Officiant. I am inspired to create images that break down societal norms and show that all kinds of people and love are valid and beautiful. I am an LGBTQ+ identifying business owner, and affirm love stories of all genders, sexualities, ability, and race. My style is modern, natural, romantic, whimsical, candid, and bold.

“Captured by Emily C. Petrie was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From our first interaction, Emily's communication was always timely, transparent, and kind. The quality of her work is truly beautiful, with sharp, vibrant images that captured all the special moments of our day. Emily was there for all the important moments, gently guiding us and making us feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera, even though we weren't experienced. We highly recommend working with Emily - she helped create beautiful memories that we will cherish forever.”

“Where to begin? As a photographer myself, I thought I'd have a really hard time choosing a wedding photographer, but when I saw Nate and Amanda's work, my search was over. If you're having trouble choosing a photographer/videographer, you can stop here. Nate and his second shooter, Ashley were an absolute dream to work with. They made us so comfortable and actually helped in ways I wasn't expecting. They kept us on time so we didn't miss any important moments but still managed to capture everything we wanted with ease. They simultaneously grabbed video while shooting photos without interruption. Nate is creative and will work with you to figure out the best settings and ways to capture who you are as a couple and document the day so you never forget it. Cannot thank The Shalom Imaginative enough for their creative collaboration and attention to detail!”

Sam Sean Photography

With over 24 years of experience behind the lens, Sam Sean Photography offers timeless, story-driven images that capture life’s most meaningful moments. Specializing in family portraits, weddings, and group photography, I’m passionate about creating natural, heartfelt images that reflect each client’s unique story. I began my career at Joey Ikemoto Photography Studio as a lead photographer, where I also managed the studio’s website and SEO strategy. That experience shaped my commitment to quality, client care, and technical excellence.

“Having worked in the events industry for over a decade, I engaged with dozens of photographers with varying styles and approaches. When it came to my wedding, I saw Sam's work and knew immediately that he was going to be able to deliver the aesthetic my husband and I wished for. What I didn't know until the day of, was that he was such a delight to work with. He made me and my bridesmaids feel beautiful, capturing natural and authentic moments. He was present without being intrusive, and he somehow captured *every* single shot perfectly. I had a standard shot list like most brides do, but as things began to happen organically - with my guests, the food, sunset, the bar, people starting to dance - Sam got it all on camera. My husband and I absolutely treasure our wedding photos and can confidently say that hiring Sam was one of the best decisions we made. If you're here on Zola and you have a wedding planning checklist that is pages long, please take one thing off your list and just call Sam. He's delightful, his work is powerful, and he'll capture you and your partner exactly how you'd like to be remembered on your wedding day.”
