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!”

“Deanna was truly the most amazing photographer for our wedding! Neither my husband nor I had ever taken professional photos before, and to be honest, we’re both pretty awkward and camera-shy. But from the moment we booked her, she made the whole experience feel effortless. She even offered an engagement session, which helped us get comfortable in front of the camera. By the end of it, we were blown away by how beautiful the photos turned out—far beyond what we had imagined! On the wedding day, Deanna was more than just a photographer; she was a calming presence amidst all the excitement and nerves. Her ability to guide us through poses felt so natural—never forced or uncomfortable. She has such an incredible eye for capturing genuine moments, and the photos reflect that in every frame. Deanna didn’t just document our wedding; she became a friend along the way. I can’t express how much we appreciate her talent, kindness, and professionalism. We’re already looking forward to working with her again for future milestones and photo sessions. Thank you, Deanna, for capturing our special day so perfectly—we couldn’t have asked for more!”

“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!”

“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!”

“I hired Vic to photograph my bridal shower based on some recommendations on FaceBook! I took one look at her portfolio and knew that she was talented. She made the booking process super easy and was reachable via Email and Text. She formalized the agreement via contract which was very professional and helped me guarantee that she would be committed to my event. On the day of the event, she went above and beyond. She helped calm me as we were running a bit late but she kept things moving the whole event. She captured photos of me, my guests, and got detailed shots of all our decorations. Our guests loved that she offered pointers on how to pose and stand. Not to mention she took several photos of every shot - I’ve worked with photographers in the past who will only take 1 shot, but not Vic! After the event, she gave me all the unedited photos within 48 hours which was a HUGE win! She captured around 700 photos of my 2 hour event - I was stunned in the best way. Overall, working with her was a dream and I cannot wait to hire her for my next event.”

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”

“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.”

You don’t have to choose between meaningful portraits and actually spending time with your guests. I photograph weddings for couples who value being present with the people they love, while still making time for portraits together. With thoughtful pacing and smart use of natural light, there’s time for both. My approach blends joyful, editorial-style portraits with candid coverage, guided in a way that feels calm and unobtrusive. Outside of winter weddings, there’s usually more flexibility than couples expect, allowing space for portraits and time to enjoy cocktail hour, dinner, and the moments that matter most.

She guided us skillfully on how best to pose and also managed to capture the sweetest candid moments. The photos are absolutely beautiful!! We could not ask for more. We're so grateful. Thank you again, Jade! 3”

“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!”

“Gui was absolutely incredible for our wedding! He captured every special moment we had hoped for and so many more that we might have missed otherwise. There were details and decorations I didn’t even get to fully appreciate on the day, and thanks to Gui’s thoughtful eye, I now have beautiful photos of everything. He went above and beyond, delivering even more photos than promised. We truly couldn’t be happier with his work! The photos speak for themselves, thank you so much Gui!!!”

Dylan Kyle Photography

  • Serves Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA

I've always had a love for color and light, and a passion for landscapes and people. Ever since high school and into college, photography was just something that, no pun intended, caught my eye. I've been shooting weddings for 9 years now, and there's nothing I'd rather be doing. I'm married to the love of my life, Rachel; sandwiches are my favorite food, and I love long walks on the beach. Seriously, I do :)

“Dylan Kyle Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photographer. From our very first interaction, their communication style was casual yet professional, and they were incredibly reasonable with their packages. Their work is simply stunning - the photos Dylan& his assistant Hugo captured of our special day are absolutely beautiful and will allow us to relive those precious moments for years to come. The Dylan Kyle team was present throughout the day, providing us with professionally designed pamphlets that included helpful suggestions for enjoying the wedding, descriptions of what to expect from the photographer, and even recommendations for other vendors. They were punctual, realistic, creative, and most importantly, they made the experience fun. We are thrilled with the high-quality results and would highly recommend Dylan Kyle Photography to any couple planning their wedding.”
