I knew Enea and Hayley were fantastic professional artists after seeing our engagement photos, but they completely blew us away with their skills and expertise on our wedding photos and video. The video is a masterpiece. Enea and Hayley are both very nice, funny, and super passionate about their work.

Fit the Frame photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Memo and his team were incredibly professional, understanding and direct in their communication style. The quality of their work was truly outstanding - Memo truly outdid himself in capturing the most beautiful and meaningful moments from our special day. Memo and his second shooter were so kind and thoughtful, helping us stay on schedule while never compromising the quality of their work. They were onboard with anything we requested and truly went above and beyond for our wedding. Not only did they provide us with the most stunning photos, but Memo and his team also captured so many fun, candid moments with our guests that took us right back to our wedding day.

Heather Blackwood Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Carnelian Bay, CA

Hey, I'm so glad you're here! My name is Heather and I live in beautiful Foresthill, CA. I love any and all hard seltzers, my Great Dane Fritz, and using my camera to capture all the feels. About my business? Well I'm basically a professional wedding crasher, so you know you will always have fun with me! Oh and I've pretty much cried at every wedding I've ever been to...and yours is no exception. Let's be friends!

Heather was wonderful to work with! We are the awkward type in front of a camera, but working with Heather made everything seem so stress-free during our wedding planning and photo sessions. Our engagement photo session was fun and care-free and we unbeknownst to all of us, she actually ended up taking beautiful photos of our beautiful rabbit, Trixie before she passed on the following month. Something that we truly appreciated and will never forget. For our wedding, Heather was very detailed and gave us a run down of what to expect for the photos. Nothing was hidden and she was up front about it all and asked if we wanted to add anything as well. Although Mother Nature had other plans for the day, we were still able to get the majority of our photos done. She even snuck in polaroid photos that were just too adorable - And I have no idea when she even took them! We received our wedding photos back and everyone absolutely loves them. I just love her style. While there are some photographers who do a large amount of filter/presets (no shade to those who do), there's just something about Heather's style of being able to keep it clean and natural that I just love! With Mother Nature having other plans with making it a misty ceremony and a downpour reception, we did miss out on doing a handful of photos of cocktail hour. Because of that, Heather was quick to offer us a bridal session to take some additional photos to complete our wedding. Instead of returning to the venue, we actually decided to relocate to Fort Bragg and take photos at the Mendocino Garden. The photos turned out absolutely gorgeous with the oceanic background and the dahlias that she chose to work with. She made everything seem so light-hearted and there was so much laughter with each session. Thank you Heather for everything you did throughout our wedding planning and so much more. You've captured so many wonderful moments and we couldn't have asked for a better photographer!

Azaria Chavira Photography

  • Classic style
  • Serves Carnelian Bay, CA

Hi! I’m Azaria. I am a Northern California-based Travel Wedding and Elopement photographer. How did I get here? I grew up in small-town Nebraska with a love for adventure and photography. I got to explore those passions when I got married, my husband joined the military, and we got stationed overseas. I used that opportunity to travel and see many countries. When we returned stateside, I pursued my passion for photography by getting my degree at Brooks Institute of Photography.

Awarded Best of Zola
Azaria took our engagement photos and our wedding photos and was absolutely incredible! She was so sweet and easy to work with and kept us laughing! We loved having her in Yosemite and her photos turned out incredible! She just sent over a few sneak peaks from our wedding album and I can’t wait to see the rest! Not only did the photos turn out great, but she also helped me all day long and even handled all the buttons on my dress for me!

She made me, my husband, and our entire wedding party feel so comfortable in front of the camera, which made every photo feel natural and genuine. She captured every moment so beautifully and somehow managed to be everywhere without ever feeling intrusive.

I have always had a passion for photography and once I picked up a camera, it was all over. I was raised from a big family and my kids are my world! Born and raised in the Bay Area, I have a special love for being back there. I consider myself very outgoing and will always try and make you laugh and feel comfortable by being a huge dork. I think that is one of the biggest compliments I get is that my clients always feel relaxed and at ease and I love hearing that. Not to mention becoming friends with my clients which is an added bonus! ​

I’ve been capturing weddings, family lifestyle photography and casual portraits for more than a couple decades now working primarily in the Sacramento, Lake Tahoe, Napa, and San Francisco Bay areas, as well as all along the coastlines around San Diego and Coronado and everywhere in between. I’m inspired by outdoor adventures, travel, playful people, live music and amazing light and take advantage of any opportunity to capture raw emotion and natural beauty away from home.

We hired Lisa Richmond to photograph our wedding. She took beautiful photos (in a not ideal light situation) and really captured the spirit of the event. She is a gifted photographer with a keen eye for composition and character. She really got herself into the middle of all that was happening while at the same time was unobtrusive and respectful of the guests and the event. Such an amazing combination of skills. Lisa is also a joy to work with. She has a curious mind and that curiosity draws her into her subjects and creates beautiful work. I highly recommend her.

Daniel Cewinski Photography

  • Classic style
  • Serves Carnelian Bay, CA

I am really interested in other people. I like to find out about you. I believe we all have value, and everybody deserves to be happy. Sour Pusses are quite the bummer, and seriousness is overrated. I really believe there should be very little reason for people to not get along. EVERYONE is welcome. I LOVE nostalgia, and having my work appreciated enough to be on your walls is the best feeling. I roast my own coffee, I am a friek for Legos, old black and white movies, the ocean, the forest, the jungle, and chatting with people.

It was serendipitous that I came across Daniel's instagram randomly in the early stages of wedding planning, and the most recent photos happened to be from the venue we'd chosen so it was clear he knew the venue and that his pictures were magical. Our wedding planners were thrilled that we had found him as they have all worked together and have a great working relationship. Daniel is exuberant and brings such authentic enthusiasm to his work. He was super helpful in the day of planning, and on the day managed our timeline with great efficiency and professionalism. All of our guests were highly impressed at his commitment to getting every shot both posed and candid of us, our families, and portraits of our guests. My husband's most important moment to capture was sunset and our sunset photos are beyond stunning. We had a really positive experience working with Daniel as a person and photographer and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to capture a wedding or any special event.

Captured Cupid

  • Serves Carnelian Bay, CA

Captured Cupid is based out of Sacramento, California servicing clients from around the world. Primarily started as a wedding cinematography studio that specializes in storytelling style filmmaking. We love the challenge of producing such high-quality work for each individual because the emotional response is extremely rewarding for both our clients and our team. We would love to make introductions and chat with you about your wedding or special event.

Kevin was the best investment we made for our wedding. He went above and beyond for us. He stayed late at our wedding and gave us expert tips and tricks during our wedding to create a smoother event. The biggest problem I experienced during my wedding (and I assume most other do as well) was stress. Everything was flying at me and my then fiancé and the last person I expected to help comfort me and my wife and put our minds at ease was our videographer Kevin. He handled things with such ease and calmness. It honestly felt like he was the captain that kept out ship afloat. He’s more than a videographer. He helped organize and coordinate family/games/events during our wedding and truly did more than we could have ever asked for. Not to mention he even took incredible photos for us and had a entire edited album created for us the very next day. He displays the incredible professionalism and true care for his clients. I recommend his work to everyone and anyone. He is the best investment you could make for your most important day. My wife and I can’t thank him enough for what he did for us.

We want to capture it naturally while having fun and making it least stressful as possible. We would love to be apart of your special day!

I could not have asked for a better photographer and videographer for our wedding. Connor and Emma captured our day beautifully and were so great to work with. They made us feel comfortable in feeling like we could be ourselves and not have to worry about cameras around us. Having a Male/ Female duo had its major perks. The groomsmen and groom liked they could be “guys” around Connor and not have to censor themselves while having Emma in the Bridal suite was nice when having to put on a dress. Connor had our hi-light in less than 24 hours. At First this terrified me thinking “how can it be good he didn’t take his time” I was completely WRONG. It was better than I even imagined. Thank you both for capturing our day we are beyond lucky to have had you as part of our day.

Hi, I’m Moss—photographer, filmmaker, and storyteller. I’ve been capturing weddings since 2011, with over 150 love stories told. My background in shooting snowboarding, climbing, and outdoor campaigns gives me an eye for movement, emotion, and natural light. I work mostly between Lake Tahoe and Northern New Mexico, bringing calm energy and a documentary style to every wedding I shoot. It’s an honor to tell your story in a way that feels real, timeless, and true.

Moss Halladay is the preeminent professional videographer and photographer. From the start, he developed our vision for the wedding video into an actionable game plan. He guided us through the unfamiliar world of videography in a way that made it feel natural. Between researching the site, the event, and the vibe, Moss came prepared to an unfamiliar venue he seamlessly blended into. An unexpected snow storm hit on the day of our wedding, and Moss quickly adapted. He captured how the wedding party reacted and made memorable drone shots of our celebration in the storm. Throughout the event, Moss was capturing the heart and soul of us as a couple and our guests. He was enthusiastic, instructive and brought out the best in others. In addition, Moss collaborated very well with our primary photographer and quickly integrated as a team unit when needed. After all was said and done at the event, Moss promptly got back to us with our final video, which he had graciously edited in our requests. Our friends and family, and ourselves too, still marvel at the high quality of his work. If you are looking for a responsive, personable and actionable professional for your videography or photography needs, Moss is your guy.

Joy Photo and Video was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography and videography needs. They always answered my questions as fast as they could, which put me at ease during the planning process. I loved that I can have access to all the pictures they took, not just the edited ones. The video they put together is amazing - they were able to make it so special in just a few short minutes. The photographer and videographer told us exactly what to do and how to pose, which was so helpful since we didn't know what kind of poses we wanted. The only thing I knew I wanted was some under the veil pictures, and they made sure to get those first. I also loved knowing that if my photographer or videographer were sick that day or something happened, there would be a back-up person there to ensure our day was captured perfectly. Overall, Joy Photo and Video exceeded our expectations and I would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

I didn’t even know where to begin! Choosing to work with Vic was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our engagement. Since my partner and I don’t really use social media, we’re not exactly selfie pros—in fact, we’re pretty awkward in front of the camera. That’s why we knew we needed a professional to capture this special moment, and let me tell you, Vic was amazing. As someone who had no clue how to pose, I was so grateful for her expert guidance. She made the entire experience feel effortless, and our photos turned out absolutely stunning—timeless, elegant, and so full of emotion. I never imagined I’d actually enjoy taking photos, but Vic made it such a fun and memorable experience! Beyond her incredible skills behind the camera, she was also a fantastic adviser when it came to choosing locations, and her warm, friendly personality made us feel completely at ease. We loved her so much, and I truly can’t recommend her enough. Writing this review is making me emotional because I’m just so grateful that she was our photographer. Thank you, Vic!!

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!
