  • Fine art style
  • Serves Dana Point, CA

Starting my photography as a hobby in 2014 and becoming professional in 2017, my journey has taken me across the United States and around the world, where I've had the privilege of serving more than 200 couples on their special day. My approach to photography stands apart from traditional documentary styles. I focus on the natural colors and rich content of each moment, striving to highlight real-time emotions through thoughtful lighting and composition. My goal is to celebrate the unique narrative of every couple by capturing their happiness and love story with a distinct light-and-airy perspective.

My Wife and I couldn’t be happier with the amazing job Steven did. We will cherish and share these wonderful candid snapshots of our family and friends coming together to celebrate our love. Steven and his team were able to navigate the long 12-hour Vietnamese wedding ceremony with dedication and professionalism. His team were able to stage the shots quickly while provide concise directions so we could meet our busy wedding schedule. They emphasized that we should enjoy our big day. Whether it was firing off jokes, providing valuable assistance, or answering our questions, Steven and his team were a dream to work with and we couldn’t recommend them more. Our friends have also hired him after seeing his work.

  • Serves Dana Point, CA

I have always loved story-telling. I loved writing stories as a kid (I even tried to get a book published at age 12) and I love writing my own D&D campaigns now. Through storytelling, I see the paths laid ahead for our heroes, and beautiful adventures that need to be documented. Through storytelling, I started to see the pictures. And from these pictures, I began to photograph. I am crazy passionate about your day. I want to help you capture those moments. I want you to have the most amazing time, and the happiest memories. I want you to have photos so good that you can’t wait to show it off to the people you know, and even those you don’t.

Cassy has photographed our engagement, wedding, graduation and maternity photos. This review is long overdue. She’s so communicative and professional. She’ll make you feel comfortable right away and knows her stuff. She takes beautiful photos. You won’t regret going with her for your photos for any occasion. She’s awesome and just a super nice person and wonderful photographer. For our wedding, she went above and beyond and got so many great photos. Do it, go book her now.

Maddie was above and beyond anything we could've asked for as our wedding photographer. She has a gift for the craft and handled our huge wedding party like a pro. She pays attention to every little detail to get the best photos and was so skilled in finding the perfect shots throughout the weekend. We loved working with her and would suggest her to any couple across the country as she knows how to scope out any area for the best shots. Her consultation process was great, she gave us a lot of good ideas and considerations to help us make sure we got in as many good family/friend shots as possible so the whole wedding party could have nice photos to remember the weekend by as well as us. She went above and beyond throughout the wedding night, coming back to grab her camera off the clock to get a bunch of candid photos of the dance floor and reception. Thank you Maddie for capturing our special night, we loved working with you.

Judith Banos Photography

  • Serves Dana Point, CA

Originally from Mexico with a background in architecture, I discovered my true calling behind the camera at age 13. What started as a teenage passion has blossomed into Judith Baños Photography, where I've spent years documenting life's most precious moments. My architectural training gives me a unique perspective on composition and light. As a bilingual photographer, I specialize in weddings, proposals, elopements, and pet photography because I believe in preserving memories that last forever.

Judith took our engagement photos when I proposed to my fiancee at her parents' home in Manhattan Beach. Judith was phenomenal. The photos were stunning, she allowed the scene to unfold naturally while still making sure to get the best shots. She stopped at nothing too, once we gave her the go-ahead. She even lied down on the ground to get the ring shining off the sun. I could not recommend her highly enough for your needs. Everyone who's seen our photos has been so complimentary, and we could not be more thrilled with her work.

My name is Mallory, and I am a fine art film wedding photographer based out of Southern California & available worldwide. Growing up I always had a creative mind. I felt drawn to the camera but never knew why, or that one day it would become one of my main purposes in life. I began my business in 2012 and can honestly say that I have never looked back. I would describe my style as delicate, romantic, elegant, but most importantly - timeless.

Mallory is the epitome of a professional photographer but embodies the comfort of a best friend. She has truly honed her craft and is wonderful to work with. She has made my camera-shy husband feel at ease during our engagement shoot, & she has incredible attention to detail. Her photos are timeless and elegant, and the photos she has taken of me and my husband are my absolute favorite. I whole-heartedly recommend Mallory to anyone looking for classic jaw-dropping film photographs they will cherish forever.

Anatoliy is from Kazakhstan, where he studied transportation technology at Karaganda State Technical University, before getting his MFA in filmmaking from New York Film Academy. Susie is from LA, and she studied molecular & cellular biology at Harvard University (along with film and animation), before getting her MS in computer science from UChicago. While we were both in engineering, deep down, we always had a passion for storytelling. And one day, we decided that life was far too short for us not to do what we loved: creating and sharing real stories.

I don't think there are words to truly express how much Anatoliy K, Susie, and team made our wedding photo dreams come true. From a perfect engagement shoot on the beach to our big day in a spring garden - the photos say it all! Each moment and detail was so perfectly captured, and made our hearts burst looking at each picture. We are truly blown away by the high-quality, attention to detail, and gorgeous compositions that came out of such a creative team. Once I saw AnatoliyK Weddings on Zola, they stood out, and they truly delivered. It was SUCH a pleasure and joy working with Anatoliy and Susie from the beginning to end. They made our vision come to life, and we have it for a lifetime to remember! THANK YOU so much to such an amazing wedding photography team. I cannot recommend you hire them enough!!!

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Dana Point, CA

I first began taking photos when my son, Andrew, was born in 1998. He is now my second photographer. I started my wedding photography career in 2000, working for a wedding studio part-time. In April 2019, I started as a full-time wedding photographer to pursue my life time goal. I would love to capture your unique love story!

Justin is an absolute blast to work with, I'm so glad we had him as our wedding photographer. Not only did our photos turn out incredible but he was so much fun to have as a part of our wedding. He's extremely interactive and involved, during our reception if he noticed someone on our dance floor trying to take a selfie he'd jump in with a spotlight so that their person photos would turn out great too. I just love how thoughtful that was! He caters to your wants for photos, while he guides and advises for what will look best he also listens to your ideas and makes sure that you get the photos that you want. Justin has an amazing personality, while very professional, he also had us cracking up the whole time and made our photo sessions not only moments that we had our photos taken but memories that make me smile and laugh when I think back on them. Rather than a vendor that we hired, Justin immediately felt like a friend that was celebrating with us. I highly recommend him and cannot thank him enough for all he did to add to our day and capture all the amazing moments for us.

Hi there! I’m Emma CotéEwers, your East Coast & Destination Wedding and Lifestyle Photographer! My work is a seamless blend of traditional heirloom portraiture, lively artistic shots, and a little ​photojournalism if the day calls for it. With a true-to-color, film-inspired approach, I strive to craft visuals that capture love, ​laughter, and those beautifully authentic moments that weave together the story of your ​wedding! I feel like these should include fun ​facts? Patsy Cline’s Walkin’ After Midnight is my favorite song and I am currently on my 8th ​nostalgic binge of Gilmore Girls (which might just be fueling my banter lately).

Emma is truly exceptional. Words can’t fully capture the magic she brings to her work, no praise feels quite high enough. She made every moment of our wedding feel special, as if it were the most important event she’d ever photographed. Emma is warm, approachable, and endlessly creative. Her photos don’t just capture the day, they let you relive it, every time you look at them. Her style resonated with who we are as a couple completely. It felt like she truly saw us and translated that into every image. We were able to see the wedding not only from out perspective but the perspectives of our parents, family, and friends. Even with our more unconventional wedding plans, Emma took everything in stride with grace and enthusiasm. She’s a rare gem, and having her as our photographer was an absolute gift.
