Eivan's made our wedding day wonderful! Alexander Schmidt was our photographer, and our videographer was Noah. We got our pictures back sooner than expected, and they suited the exact style we had hoped for. Communication was great, photos were easy to access, and we were allowed free download for so many pictures! One family portrait had one person not looking, otherwise people were smiling and looking in everything. Many people commented on their professionalism as well as their kindness at the wedding. Thanks, Eivan's!

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.

Desert Born Studios photographs elopements and intimate weddings for couples in Yosemite and Central California Couples who want something real, wild, and deeply meaningful. Based in the West and fueled by open landscapes, rock-and-roll energy, and honest connection, we document your day as it unfolds dust on your boots, wind in your hair, and all the emotion in between. If you’re ditching tradition and choosing an experience over a production, you’re in the right place.

We truly cannot recommend Sara and Desert Born Studios enough. From our first conversation to getting our gorgeous gallery back, she was warm, professional, and energetic every step of the way. Sara and her team have a top-tier, high quality approach that is so story-focused - they captured all the special moments of our day with a fun, lively energy. Sara went above and beyond, making sure my first look went exactly the way I wanted and even joining us on the dance floor to get amazing shots. Our photos are unreal and somehow still feel like us. We felt comfortable the entire time, even in the crazy outdoor conditions. 10/10 would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Meet Kathryn: I began my career as a wedding photographer almost 15 years ago, first working for a renowned Bay Area wedding photographer, and then officially opening Kathryn Lewis Photography in 2014. I loved capturing intimate moments, getting (maybe overly) excited about good light, traveling to gorgeous places, and helping set up the perfect timeline and obsessing about the details so clients’ wedding days could be seamless and stress free. Being able to do that for so many amazing clients makes this such a dream. I'd love to meet you!

Kate Michelle Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,490
  • Serves El Nido, CA

From the moment we begin planning together, my process centers on trust and ease. I believe that beautiful imagery comes not from forced posing or rigid schedules, but from relaxed presence and genuine interaction — the fleeting glances, the laughter between moments, and the quiet exchanges that happen when people feel truly comfortable in front of the camera. Couples often describe my presence as calming, intuitive, and supportive, and I love helping even those with little photography experience feel natural and confident.

It is difficult to put into words how wonderfully Kate captured our wedding. Her professionalism and skill allowed her to take beautiful photos, but her presence and perceptivity guided her camera toward the most important, intimate scenes of the day. We were fortunate enough to have Kate with us for the full wedding weekend, as she got to know our inner circle of closest family and friends. She observed as hundreds of connections were made, countless laughs were shared, and documented the magic in those moments between our guests. Kate guided us through our camera-shyness and instructed us with her expertise on how to pose for photos. She effortlessly wrangled and directed our bridal party and families for a seamless, efficient photo session, somehow keeping us all on schedule. Our wedding was lighthearted and festive at times, as well as deeply sentimental and emotional at other times, and Kate's photos encapsulated all of it. We are so grateful for her, and couldn't have imagined a more well-suited photographer for the most special day of our lives.

As you can tell, sometimes choosing your photographer can be an overwhelming process. There are so many things to consider when narrowing it down to your perfect match. Of course, style and price are the main two, however, some couples forget that your photographer is the one person who is with you the most on your wedding or event day. That is why we offer complementary sessions to all our couples so we get to work together and create a bond. Instead of just being "the photographer" at your event, our goal is to capture beautiful images from your day and leave you with an experience that enhances your memories.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience! From start to finish, Wedding Times Film was an absolute dream to work with. They have an incredible eye for capturing not just moments, but emotions—every smile, tear, and laugh was documented so beautifully. The photos were beyond stunning—timeless, elegant, and so full of life. [Photographer’s Name] has this unique ability to make you feel completely at ease in front of the camera, which truly shines through in the natural and candid shots. Not only were they professional and attentive, but they also brought a calm and joyful energy to our wedding day, which made all the difference. We’ll cherish these photos forever and can’t thank them enough for perfectly capturing one of the most important days of our lives. If you’re looking for a talented, passionate, and reliable photographer, look no further—Wedding Times Film is amazing. Highly recommend!

Absolutely — here’s another version with the same voice and message, just reworded enough to feel fresh on a different site: You honestly can’t go wrong booking this company. I was pretty laid-back as a bride — except when it came to photography. After working as a bridal gown model, I knew exactly what I wanted and I was nervous about how the photos would turn out. George Street completely delivered. Their planning tools made the day feel organized before it even started. Both photographers arrived early, stayed on top of the timeline, and somehow managed to capture every important moment without being noticeable at all. I had a handful of creative, slightly “edgy” shots I was hoping for, and they brought them to life perfectly. One of my favorite parts is how easy it is to view everything afterward. We have access to every single photo, and being able to share the link with our friends and family has been such a fun way to relive the day together. I’m so happy with how everything turned out and would definitely recommend them to future brides

Sean stayed until the very end of the night, capturing every special moment without ever making us feel rushed.

Our experience with Xenia and Mark (videographer) was truly amazing. Xenia is truly a dedicated professional and her camera work is truly phenomenal. We booked Xenia for both our engagement and wedding photos and she completely exceeded my expectations! We originally booked Xenia and Mark for our wedding in May but unfortunately our wedding venue closed last minute and we were left to scramble in finding a new venue and once we did Xenia was so accommodating and made the new wedding date work. Xenia and Mark are super easy to work with; truly genuine individuals! I scoured through hundreds of photographers before I came across Xenia and honestly, none of them compared to her work and eye for photography. Stop your search and book her; I promise you won't regret it. Thank you, Xenia and Mark!

Hey, I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a wedding photographer, yes — but more than that, I’m someone who deeply values connection. I love getting to know my couples, their families, and their chosen families. I photograph all kinds of love, but I’m especially proud to serve the LGBTQIA+ community. As a lesbian and someone who’s been through the wedding planning process with my amazing wife, I know how powerful representation is — and how much it matters. Whether you’re queer or an ally, I’m honored you’ve found your way here. Tell me your love story, and let’s show the world just how magical it is.

Awarded Best of Zola
We decided very last minute (about a month in advance) to have a small backyard wedding ceremony prior to our planned wedding, in a different state than where we live. Michelle 100% saved the day. We weren't sure we even wanted to hire a photographer, and we are so glad we did! From the start, Michelle was quick to follow up and made communicating easy to follow and keep up with. She made time for us to have a short notice consult, and was so flexible and understanding with letting us book less than a month before our date. She took the time to get to know us and expressed so much empathy and care. On the day of our wedding, Michelle was prompt, easy to work with, clear with ideas and instructions, and just helped our day run more smoothly overall (thank you for hoisting away my parents' chaotic puppy). She was flexible when our schedule got off track. She brought us sparklers for some cool "send off" photos and gave us cute polaroids right before she left for the night. And we had our sneak peek less than 24 hours later! We absolutely loved having Michelle there; we can't say enough about what a wonderful person she is and how much we loved getting to know her and having her around. She was warm and kind not only with us, but with everyone present. If you are an LGBTQ couple and at all on the fence about hiring an LGBTQ photographer, let me tell you, it is 100% worth it, and we have no doubt that Michelle is one of the best. The feeling of working with someone who gets you, who relates to your experience, and who will make everyone around them feel at ease is priceless. ALSO, the photos are everything we could have dreamed of and more! We chose Michelle not just because of her identity and location, but also because her work is lovely and warm and bright. The vibe of the images on her website and her feed is exactly what we wanted and what we got.

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Mae was an absolute pleasure to work with. I knew I liked her from the very first call. She was thorough and asked good questions to make sure she could capture what we wanted. I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough. I loved all the photos and the video made me cry. Mae is the type of person you want to be friends with after everything is done. Trust me, book Mae!!

Brayley was hands down the easiest and one of the best hires for our wedding. I found her through the Zola website as a photographer with five stars. I reached out, and she got back to me immediately. Her communication skills were top-notch, and I hired her that same day. My fiancé and I live in the Carolinas, and despite the three-hour time difference, we always felt in the loop, heard, and understood. From the first email to the wedding day, she was amazing. Now let's get to the important stuff... the wedding day. She was incredible. She got all the shots I wanted and then some. We were able to get all the photos done in a timely manner so that we could get back to the party and enjoy ourselves. Brayley captured both staged photos and the best candids. We cannot wait to get the rest of our album back. If you're thinking about hiring Brayley... DO IT!

While I love beautifully decorated weddings, I’m equally passionate about photographing celebrations that are simple, imperfect, and real. Your florals don’t need to be full, and your venue doesn’t need to be luxurious. What matters most is your connection. I’m especially drawn to noticing the most touching moments in any setting—your emotions, your interactions, and the quiet love you share.

We discovered Callie's work online and were immediately drawn to her ability to capture natural, authentic moments filled with genuine emotion. She photographed our wedding ceremony beautifully, with an incredible talent for preserving all the joy, happiness, and touching moments of our special day. Working with her was an absolute pleasure. The photos speak for themselves!

I’m a Northern California wedding photographer capturing timeless, romantic moments that tell the story of your day. I specialize in rustic weddings—think rural barns, vineyard and winery celebrations, coastal views, and majestic forest groves. Planning a city wedding? I’ve also photographed many beautiful locations throughout San Francisco. Explore my full portfolio on the website to see if my style feels like the perfect fit for you.

Laurie Ann Martin and her team are a fun and professional group to work with. She is detailed oriented and cares not only how the pictures turn out but also your experience. My eyelash came off and I wanted to cry at city hall but she not only made me happy but went to Walgreens to get eye glue lash! That is the type of all hats on board she and her team are. When they had down time before the reception, they even offered to help out non-picture wise wherever they could! She also sends little gifts and surprises but I won’t spoil it. There is one BIG surprise she does at the end but I won’t spoil that either lol. She is fortunately not shy about whether she understands whether things are communicated correctly to her, especially when it comes to the albums - I was quite detailed oriented in what I wanted in my albums and how they were designed _. Her and her teams services are of an immense value and my husband and I had ALOT of fun shooting and videoing with them. Also, the video was really great, really a must. Thank you Laurie and your team!
