Hi, I'm Jenn Petty. I'm a wedding photographer based in Monterey, California and I travel worldwide capturing all people's love stories. I believe in equality, representation, and being kind to everyone. I believe in promoting self-love, confidence, body-neutrality, and general badassery into each of my clients. You don't need to always love your body or the way you look because that's just not realistic. But you shouldn't let it hold you back from enjoying life because you're so amazing and so so much more than your weight

JeLau Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. From the very first time we spoke, the owner Jen was so helpful, direct, and kind - making the entire process leading up to the big day smooth and stress-free. On the day itself, Jen kept me feeling calm and on schedule, and made every moment fun and enjoyable. The quality of their work is truly outstanding - the photos are absolutely beautiful and captured the perfection of our special day. Jen is an amazing person which makes her amazing to work with, and we are so grateful to have had her as our wedding photographer. We couldn't recommend JeLau Photography more highly!

Capture the timeless Essence of your wedding day with Natasha Lozanoff Photography. Specializing in both digital and film photography and videography. Shooting your weddings in Santa Cruz, the Bay Area of California, and Destination Weddings.

Natasha was so wonderful to work with from start to finish. We signed up for her microwedding package, which included an engagement shoot and six hours of photography for our backyard wedding. From the very beginning, she made everything so easy and enjoyable. During our consultation call, we talked about our vision for the day and what we were hoping for our special day. At our engagement shoot, she made us feel completely at ease, capturing us naturally and authentically as a couple. On our wedding day, she went above and beyond in every way. She arrived early to scope out my in-laws home, planning out where the best spots on the property would be. Throughout the day, she was calm, organized, and so easy to be around, giving gentle direction when needed but also letting moments unfold naturally. She managed to capture every detail: from the quiet moments of getting ready to the laughter during family portraits, the ceremony tears, and every moment in between! She blended in seamlessly with our guests, which made everyone feel comfortable and resulted in the most genuine, candid, beautiful photos. We received sneak peek photos a couple days later and were blown away by how beautiful they turned out. Every photo told a story and brought us right back to how the day felt. We couldn’t be happier with our experience, Natasha is talented, professional, and has such a warm presence. We feel incredibly lucky to have had her capture our love story and we cannot recommend her enough!

Hey there! I am a wedding and portrait photographer. I love capturing unforgettable images that reflect light, laughter, and love. I love capturing images that tell your story. I will walk you through your session with a variety of prompts and poses that put you at ease so that you feel comfortable, confident, and have fun! When you are yourself in front of the camera, the result is beautiful images that reflect your personality & genuine connection with those you love. I enjoy using locations that uniquely compliment you.

Rachael was an AMAZING photographer for our courthouse wedding. I can’t believe we almost didn’t get a photographer, because photos with Rachael were 100% the best investment we made! She both offered a ton of helpful advice on logistics and got all the important moments. My husband and I are not photo people, but she helped us pose and made us so comfortable. The end results look like we got married at a high-end venue in the redwoods, not the parking lot of a government building. If anyone is looking for a photographer in Santa Cruz or the Bay Area, I’d highly highly recommend Rachael!

Vic with Lightfall Imagery was nothing short of incredible, and truly felt like such a special part of our entire wedding journey. We worked with her for both our engagement shoot, boudoir, and wedding day, so we really got to know her and that comfort and connection made such a difference. On the day of, she was everywhere in the best way, somehow capturing every angle and every moment without ever feeling intrusive. She was so thoughtful and quick on her feet, at one point even using my bouquet to hold down my veil in the wind so we could still get the perfect shot! And then she casually pulled out a drone to capture the most stunning video footage on top of everything else. Her creativity, energy, and attention to detail are unmatched. We love her process, where she shares the full unedited photos and we get to select the ones she will edit. We are absolutely in love with our photos and will cherish them forever!

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!

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.

When I'm not behind the camera you'll find me testing new recipes, catching up with friends over a dirty martini, or cruising with country music turned all the way up. What I love most isn't the perfectly posed portraits — it's the in-between moments. The way your person looks at you when they think no one's watching. The grandfather wiping a tear during the first dance. I specialize in wine country weddings throughout Livermore, Napa, and Sonoma — images that feel effortless and completely yours.

We are so happy we had the opportunity to have Vanessa capture our special day! The quality of her work is exceptional, with beautiful colors and candid moments filled with love.

Julie was our absolute favorite vendor for our wedding — she's amazing! From the very start, she was more than just our photographer, offering recommendations for other vendors and tips & tricks to make the wedding planning process easier for us, which was especially appreciated because we were planning it remotely. Her pricing is competitive and fair, and she truly took the time to get to know both me and my husband to ensure her photos captured our day and styles authentically. We added her husband, Will, as a second shooter, and they were both incredibly helpful and kind on the day. Even more importantly, the photos and physical photo album turned out beautiful (a good mix of candid & formal shots, which is exactly what we wanted). We're so grateful to have the album to look back on that helps us relive one of the best days of our lives. Thank you, Julie — can't wait to see you again at my best friend's wedding later this year!

From the moment we started planning our wedding, Anna and the team at Hey Honey Photography were an absolute joy to work with. She was an excellent communicator even through COVID and our wedding date shifting multiple times. We could not be happier with our wedding photos, we are absolutely obsessed! All of our images came out so beautiful, Anna captured the day even better than we imagined. She not only photographed every detail, she also surprised us with a very sweet card and a sneak peek of our photos with some beautiful polaroids she took that brought us to tears. We absolutely loved working with Anna, she was very professional, sweet, and her work is amazing. We also used her services for our engagement photos and they came out beautifully as well. We highly recommend Hey Honey Photography!

As a visual storyteller, I specialize in capturing special intimate moments for my couples during the most important parts of their relationships that they will cherish a life time. I value being a celebrator, embracer, and advocate of ALL LOVE, I am here to be your personal hype girl throughout this entire process! I strive to create raw moments during our time together that will create real laughs and sweet moments to capture your love naturally to truly showcase your love as it really is. My couples really set fire to my soul and make me feel truly grateful to have the opportunity to capture such incredible moments for them

Working with Sydney was an absolute dream. From the very beginning, they made us feel comfortable, seen, and completely at ease in front of the camera — and the photos reflect that perfectly. They didn’t just capture what our day looked like, they captured what it felt like. Every laugh, every tear, every in-between moment is frozen in time so beautifully. Her eye for detail, lighting, and composition is incredible — but what really sets her apart is how effortlessly they blend into the day. They were everywhere and nowhere all at once — never intrusive, always intentional, and somehow caught every angle and emotion. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the entire day from start to finish. We’ll cherish these photos forever, and we truly couldn’t imagine a better person to have behind the lens on the most important day of our lives. Run, don’t walk, to book them!
