Awarded Best of Zola
Having Leslie as our photographer was one of the best decisions my husband and I made for our wedding. Her great eye, understanding of light, and authentic desire to document love by means of photography has given us beautiful, quality images that we’ll cherish for years to come. She was awesome to collaborate with, as she took the time to get to know us as a couple and understand what details were important to us to capture. She worked with our wedding planner to ensure things would flow smoothly, including being cognizant of sticking to our timeline throughout our wedding day. She is professional and pleasant to work with, as she has a calm and friendly yet nonobtrusive demeanor that makes taking pictures with her easy (and our guests agreed as well). Choosing the right photographer is such an important wedding decision since photos are one of the few ways that valued memories are preserved, and we are so appreciative that we had Leslie as ours.

Hello there. Holy moly, I've been photographing all the pretty things, places and people for 12 years! I am a proud Mama to 3 kiddos, so I get the chaos that comes with love, life and the little ones. I love to dive right in and figure out what story I've been invited to tell. Who are you? I want to know your why. Why do you want your pictures taken and why me. Together we'll create your wardrobe with intention and choose a location that speaks to you. I always encourage connection, music, kisses and your best dance moves.

We are more than grateful for Kristen and the memories she captured for us on our special day. All of our family and wedding party enjoyed working with her! She was easy and fun to work with, was able to get all the pictures we were hoping for (and more!), and edited everything beautifully. We have several of her pictures enlarged and hanging in our home from our wedding day, and they truly bring us so much joy. I love her style and eye for detail. We would choose Kristen again in a heartbeat!

Tiago Pinheiro Photography

Henderson, NV
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,700
  • Serves Costa Mesa, CA

Hi! So you’re getting married and you made it here :) First off, congratulations! Love found your heart, and this is all that matters. I’m Tiago and before being a vendor of your wedding, I want you to keep in mind that behind the camera there is a person, who is more interested in your life story, and in the history of your love to translate it into pictures. With that said, before we talk about photography, we can have a beer or a good wine and get to know each other better. If you are willing to do this and also have elegant, romantic and very natural images, it will be an honor to be part of your life by clicking on your special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Tiago took our wedding photos, and we couldn’t be happier! Since the first day, he explained to us his ideas and they all matched with ours. Taking photos with Tiago was so fun and he made that moment unforgettable. We highly recommend him!

I was born and raised in the Philippines but now call Northern California my home. I've been a photographer for over a decade and that journey has made me come to realize that nothing makes me happier than making those behind my lens feel amazing about themselves. My goal is to be so much more than your photographer. I'd love for you to consider me your friend especially because we'll be spending a lot of time together on your wedding day. Trust me to help fix any strands of hair that get in your face, straighten out your outfits, help you pose, and encourage you to enjoy this momentous day.

I mean you managed to capture each important moment on camera in such style and grace. It was so much fun to look through the photos, I must’ve looked at it a hundred times!

Hi! I'm Amanda. I never need an excuse to road trip or dance like no one is watching and my soul would probably shrivel up and die without music and high five moments. Finding kindred spirits is the best medicine and I will stop at nothing to savor a fleeting moment. Helping you look and FEEL amazing is literally the best part of what I get to do! I thrive on making your photos a completely comfortable, fun and utterly painless process! I absolutely LIVE for this.

I cannot recommend Amanda enough!! We are not only over-the-moon with our photos, but Amanda is SO pleasant and fun to work with. She is able to seamlessly plug herself in, adapt, and roll with all of the moving parts of a wedding day. She helped guide and pose us through all of the portraits, and she works so swiftly. She was able to keep all of the wedding party and family members on task for those formalized pictures, while remaining playful and chill. She also collaborated beautifully with our videographer and other vendors. Do yourself a favor and hire Amanda!! She brought a very warm and calming energy to such a hectic day, and we are forever grateful to be the recipient of her time and talents!!

Malibu, CA
  • Classic style
  • Serves Costa Mesa, CA

Hi, I'm Nicole! From a young age, I always had a camera in hand and absolutely loved taking photographs and documenting anything that caught my eye. Born and raised in Southern California, I love the beach, bright colors, and documenting couples' love stories. Pursuing my passion for photography, I graduated from Brooks Institute of Photography with my BFA. I photographed my first wedding in 2014 and never looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Nicole was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! We were originally supposed to get married in April 2020 and didn't end up having the wedding until September 2021. Nicole was amazing throughout the entire process: she helped us find other vendors and supported us through many postponements. On the wedding day she made everyone feel comfortable and confident. And most importantly our photos turned out beautifully! The colors are vibrant and classic so they will never go out of style. We couldn't be happier with our photos and the environment Nicole helped to create on our wedding day. She really went above and beyond the role of a photographer and we would highly recommend hiring her!

Sarah Peterson Photography

5.0

San Francisco, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,888
  • Serves Costa Mesa, CA

I'm a Bay Area native with over 12 years in the commercial photography realm. I got my start on the beaches of Los Angeles back in 2012 shooting commercial swimwear campaigns for some of the best designers in swim and fashion. That opened the door to countless opportunities with modeling agencies, reality television, and fashion design. In 2018 I made the move back up north to San Francisco where I grew up. With a wide network of friends and family up here, I found myself catapulted into the Wedding and Elopement industry - and absolutely loved it! I'm honored when I get to be a part of one of the best days of a couple's life together.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Sarah was enjoyable and easy! As someone who usually does not like taking photos, Sarah made the process easy and comfortable. She got all the shots we had discussed in advance and captured every special moment. Her rustic editing style was exactly what I was looking for and really highlighted our flowers, centerpieces, and color scheme. Can't recommend Sarah enough!

Professional, quality photographer that made photos fun and easy Hiring Mahdi and Shima was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Mahdi and Shima were a phenomenal team and captured our wedding in the most perfect light. Our pictures turned out better than we could have ever hoped and I would recommend them for every wedding/engagement (they did both for us). Reasons why we love them-- 1) The pictures they take are top notch. The quality and style is unrivaled 2) Their style of capturing the wedding is authentic. Mahdi and Shima do a great job of capturing the "in between" moments that really tell the story of the day. Of course they include the standard family and bridal party pictures, but so many of the pictures really capture the vibe of the day. 3) Their teamwork and ability to help lead you through the flow of the day are second to none. On the day of the wedding it felt hectic and I wasn't 100% sure where I should have been or what I should have been doing at any given moment. Mahdi and Shima helped us with our schedule and walked us through the entire day effortlessly. This was great because I never had to worry about where I had to be next 4) They are just great people will incredible talent. Right off the bat you could tell that they love what they do and they love to do it together. Mahdi and Shima exceeded our expectations Would highly, highly recommend!
