If you've ever felt awkward in photos, that's my favorite problem to solve. I'm Heather, a loose editorial wedding and elopement photographer, and I'll go anywhere you're getting married. Not because I have to. Because I want to. I give you real direction so you know exactly what to do, then I step back and let something true happen inside the frame. I can't fabricate moments, so I don't try. You get bold, stylish portraits and the real in-between stuff in the same gallery, and all of it still looks like you. I'm part of the LGBTQIA+ community, and every couple, every identity, every kind of love is welcome here because of that.

From start to finish, Allen was professional, attentive, and a true team player. She captured every detail beautifully while remaining unobtrusive, allowing the couple and guests to feel completely at ease. Her eye for special moments and her creative approach brought the day to life in a way that exceeded everyone’s expectations. As a wedding planner, it’s a joy to collaborate with vendors who not only deliver exceptional work but also make the day smoother for everyone involved. Allen is absolutely one of those people, and I look forward to working with her again!”

I’ve been happily married for almost 27 years. I have three awesome sons. My parakeets Kiwi and Sparky are very social, meaning very loud! Champagne (maybe that’s why I love weddings) and sushi lover here! Photography has been my passion ever since my dad gave me my first film camera and introduced me to the dark room at age of 10. I lived in Japan for 12 years, and even performed on a stage there. I’m always up for a great road trip! I love tuna fishing. I love hats and want to wear them everyday (over 20 hats in my collection). I’ve been shooting beautiful weddings for almost 10 years. I secretly cry at every wedding.

I’m a people person. I’m observant, intuitive, and deeply inspired by real connection. I care about experiences, emotion, and the kind of moments that can’t be staged. I love photography because it’s storytelling in its purest form. It’s the ability to capture energy, emotion, and meaning in a split second. What drives me is creating images that go beyond aesthetics — photos that hold memory, movement, and feeling. For me, photography is about preserving what’s real, so you can return to it again and again.

“Maya exceeded every expectation. Her eye for detail, light, and emotion is truly exceptional. She captured our wedding day with such elegance and authenticity — every image feels intentional, refined, and full of feeling. Beyond her talent, Maya is professional, kind, and a joy to work with. Our gallery is timeless, emotional, and absolutely stunning. We would book her again in a heartbeat.”

I would love to connect more with you at katieclarephotos. com!

On our wedding day, she helped us with posing while keeping the atmosphere light and fun—we found ourselves laughing throughout the shoot, which made everything feel natural. The photos turned out stunning, and we were blown away by how quickly she delivered the final images. Beyond being a fantastic photographer, she's also a genuinely wonderful person who made us feel comfortable and cared for.

I want to create photographs that can stand the test of time so couples can relive their day years from now and for generations to come.

“Khoa was our wedding photographer from getting ready until the end of the night and we had an amazing experience with him the entire time! He is incredibly sweet and easy to work with, and made us feel very comfortable from the get-go. He was very thoughtful and thorough in using all aspects of our venue to provide amazing photos capturing the whole day. He worked very efficiently with us leading up to the ceremony to get us photos while still keeping us hidden away from our arriving guests, and then, during the ceremony and reception, he was amazingly unobtrusive but still able to capture all the great moments of our night! Khoa sent us a few preliminary photos which were all so perfect for personalizing our thank you cards. Once we got the full complement of photos from him we were blown away by the quality, editing, and energy he was able to capture from our wedding day. He is immensely generous with the number of photos he provides, and we have to stress that he somehow manages to deliver on both quantity AND quality. He is also very talented in composition and there were more than several photos that we never noticed him getting - everything perfectly captured the energy and feeling of the day and felt like we were reliving it again.

“Eduardo was very nice to work with since the beginning. He is very kind and professional and just does a great job without adding any stress. He provided some portfolios of previous work he had done, which were very photo journalistic, not just the posed shots, and we knew he was the one! He definitely has an eye for placement, reflections, and catching people’s authenticity. He spent the whole wedding day with us, from getting ready all the way till the sparkler exit. I never even saw him take a break. He even ran with us to get some sunset photos at a nearby vineyard while guests were having dinner. He even got some good shots of everyone on the dance floor without being too in your face, I didn’t even notice he was there! We got all of the photos we wanted and more. Eduardo definitely doesn’t treat his clients as a number, he understands the importance of the day and ensures that he captures it in a way that tells the story of the day.

We were blown away by the quality of our photos, both on film and digital. We had such variety of photos to choose from (settings, poses, lighting, angles) etc. One of our biggest insecurities was looking comfortable in front of the camera and not too "posed". Emily was wonderful a guiding us behind the camera and giving us prompts to make the photos feel natural and genuine. I cannot recommend her enough! Plus, we wanted to incorporate our new puppy into the photoshoot and Emily gave us all the tips and guidance to make sure that went smoothly! The extra photos with the pup are just perfect!”

“My husband and I had a fantastic experience working with Alan from Love Story Photography for our Safari Park wedding! Soon after sending off our inquiry, we heard from Alan right away who scheduled a FaceTime call with us. Little did we know, he had his lovely wife, Heidi, join the call as well. We immediately felt their warmth and love, and were eager to book them as our wedding photographer and ceremony officiant! We had a great experience working with Alan prior to the wedding, as he was always so kind in answering any logistical and timeline questions we had. Having Alan and Heidi so in tune with each other really helped move the planning process along very well. They are true wedding experts and their guidance was instrumental to us! The morning of my wedding, I was a ball of nerves, I was late to my first look, and to top it all off, as soon as I got my wedding gown on, my maid of honor discovered there was a huge black spider on it, which freaked me out even more! But, before I even had a chance to lay eyes on the creepy spider, Alan was down on the floor, cupping it in his hands and eliminating it from the room. I think that was the moment I finally began to relax and let it sink in that I was in the best hands possible with Alan. I can't say enough great things about his talent and tact. He was organized and had many deadlines to meet to follow our timeline, but was still always kind and amicable to everyone who crossed his path. He delivered beautiful photos that had meaning to us, which had exactly the elements we wanted in terms of details, animals, and family and friend shots. I love the vibrancy and timelessness of the photos he produced. I can't recommend Alan and Heidi enough. You won't regret working with these two awesome and kind people. They are wonderful wedding vendors, and even greater humans!”

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Del Mar, CA

I’m a film-forward wedding photographer based in San Diego, capturing weddings with a blend of documentary storytelling and soft editorial direction. My work focuses on real, unscripted moments and genuine emotion, paired with simple, natural portraits that feel effortless and timeless. I shoot a hybrid of film and digital, using natural light and warm tones to create imagery that feels romantic, intimate, and true to how the day actually felt.

“It’s been over a year since Aisha captured our intimate wedding ceremony and I am still in awe of our photos!!! I remember the second I saw our photos in my inbox and thinking, “wow I can’t believe that’s actually us!”. I had sent over some inspo pictures prior to our wedding ceremony, and Aisha executed my vision perfectly, especially in helping us figure out how to pose. I would definitely book with her again for family shoots in the future, she was so easy and kind to work with.”
