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.

We’re Epic Events Studios, a passionate photography and videography team devoted to capturing your most special moments. We specialize in weddings and are committed to creating beautiful, timeless memories for our clients. With a blend of traditional and candid photography styles, we ensure that no moment is missed. From the big milestones to the smallest details, we take pride in preserving the unique story of your day with care and dedication.

“Our Epic Events Studios media team was absolutely incredible. Ella and Liv captured our photos, and Brian and Alex shot our video, and we are so grateful for all four of them. From the very start of the day, they were professional, kind, organized, and brought such a calm, positive energy to the hotel room that made everything feel easy, even with 14 women getting ready at once. We especially appreciated that they met us at the hotel, traveled with us to Coronado, and then continued on to the venue. With multiple locations throughout the day, their flexibility meant so much to us. As a San Diego native, I had a specific vision for taking photos in Coronado, and despite the strong sun, they brought that vision to life in a way that completely exceeded my expectations. They made every transition feel seamless and remained upbeat, attentive, and fully present throughout it all. Most importantly, I appreciated that they stayed patient and positive despite the heat. Ella and Liv made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and captured everything so naturally and beautifully. Alex and Brian did an amazing job preserving the movement, emotion, and energy of the day in such a meaningful way. Together, they worked so seamlessly as a team and made us feel supported every step of the way. At times, it felt like they were not just our photographers and videographers, but our guardian angels throughout the day. From helping me put on my veil when my family members were having trouble, to helping bustle my wedding dress when I started to panic and didn't know how to do it, they completely eased my stress. The team also caught moments we almost missed ourselves, like the cake cutting. We were so caught up in dancing that we nearly forgot, and I appreciated so much that they pulled us aside to make sure we captured such a special moment! And of course, the photos and videos they captured were absolutely stunning. As someone who is not used to being photographed and does not usually consider themself photogenic, I was truly blown away by how beautiful and flattering everything turned out! They really knew how to capture our best angles and guide us in a way that felt natural and comfortable. We are beyond thankful for how beautifully our Epic Events Studios team captured our wedding day. These are memories we will cherish forever, and we would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a talented, flexible, and genuinely wonderful photo and video team in San Diego.”

At the engagement shoot, my fiance and I were a little nervous as we'd never done professional photos before, but Miranda and Trevor made us feel so at ease, and the photos look absolutely phenomenal. Miranda was also a huge help with developing my timeline -- I had a number of requests and was stressed about how quick the day would go especially with an early sunset time, but she helped me manage the schedule beautifully so on the day, we actually ended up having a little bit of extra time and never felt rushed! The whole wedding day was totally relaxed, and she and Trevor captured the BEST shots.”

Paige is a California wedding and portrait photographer, specializing in romantic wedding days for couples who value art and intentionality in their planning and imagery. Based in San Diego, but available for destinations worldwide.

“When we came across Paige's work on the internet, we just knew that we wanted her to be our photographer for our wedding. Her eye is so great and she does what few photographers can, capture the emotion present with her lens. Our wedding was supposed to be a very large, 2 day affair. Then covid decided to put the kibosh on it all and our wedding turned out to be the 2 of us, an officiant and Paige. She beautifully rolled with the punches during this time and elegantly communicated with us and gave us wonderful client service in the middle of a worldwide pandemic. She is a true class act. We ended up shooting 2 different days in 2 different cities, both indoor and outdoor and even next to the Palm Springs windmills in 60 mph wind gusts! Paige was a true trouper and had all the right gear for every occasion. My (now) husband and I previously didn't really like the way we looked in photos hardly ever and were a bit concerned. We expressed this to Paige. The photos that we got back from her blew our minds. We loved all of them! It was so hard to narrow it down to show people! She not only captured light beautifully and has a wonderful eye for detail but she truly captured our love through her lens and made us feel beautiful. To top all of that off, she is an amazing human as well. Paige is a joy to work with and a brilliant photographer. I highly recommend working with her for any occasion.”

I have been a photographer for 10+ years and a videographer for 5+ years. I started with shooting landscapes to portraits and have expanded to wedding photography + videography 3 years ago and it was the most. fulfilling. decision ever!!

“Cristina was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! From start to finish she was hands on, very communicative and just a doll to work with. I was going back and forth on whether or not I could afford video for my wedding day. I went back and forth and finally did all the research and found Cristina since she was in my budget. It was weeks leading up to my wedding and I kept changing the length of time I would need Cristina and she was so very professional and sweet and very patient with me. Fast forward to the wedding day and Cristina was just as sweet in person and I was super excited that I decided yes on video. The night after my wedding I had my sneak peak already in my inbox…talk about FAST. Then two months went by and we had THE BEST video full of the best moments from our wedding day. People who didn’t attend the wedding that watched the video felt as if they were there. I can’t thank Cristina enough for capturing the best day of my life.”

There are also great shots of things we didn't remember, like us canoodling in the venue's background. We felt like Katherine was part of our wedding party, not just a vendor. She was great at directing us for group photos, ensuring everyone was in the right spot without feeling rushed. She is funny and a total photography pro, and now we want her to take all of our images.

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.

“Irina is an awesome and experienced photographer which is helpful when you have no idea what to expect on your wedding day. She works with you and your coordinator to make sure you get the shots you want. She even recommended some based on previous weddings she did at our venue. The planning process was straightforward and her rates were reasonable. On the day of the wedding she helped us get ready and reassured us that everything would be okay. She never stopped taking pictures and captured some wonderful moments throughout the night. We anxiously awaited our photos and they turned out better than we expected. She did a wonderful job capturing all the important memories. All of the pictures were gorgeous and she really made you feel special. We definitely recommend her to anyone getting married in the Carlsbad area!”

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.”

“We were so lucky to find PKA Photo and Video to capture the memories of our wedding day! We had an intimate wedding on Coronado Beach with just our family members, and we absolutely love the highlight video Mia made for us! What made it even more special was how she was able to incorporate the personal song we wrote and sang with each other. Hearing the groom's guitar strumming and our own voices singing the duet in the background was so meaningful. Listening to our vows, (which were clearly recorded - by the way), and seeing the beautiful video clips of our family on the beach is a cherished gift. We are so blessed to have this video to replay when we look back on this most precious day of our lives. It makes us so emotional thinking about what happened to us with our previous videographer, and how they came to our rescue by agreeing to be our videographer at the last minute.

I've photographed nearly 500 couples over the years, and I still love the part of photography that happens in between the “big moments” — the nervous laughs, the little looks, the hugs, and everything that makes a day feel like yours. I photograph throughout San Diego and Southern California, and I'm also available for Joshua Tree elopements and destination elopements throughout California. I’m here for couples who want beautiful photographs but don't want their entire day to feel like a photoshoot.

“We chose Replica Photography for our wedding and couldn't have been happier with that decision. From our first conversation, MJ was incredibly responsive and professional, making the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. 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. We're thrilled with the results and would absolutely recommend Replica Photography to any couple looking for someone who combines creativity, professionalism, and heart.

“The best decision we made for our wedding day! We absolutely love our photos and how they showcase the beauty of our wedding. We knew that we wanted photographers that were fun and relaxed, but also able to give us direction about how to pose for photos. We were not totally sure what to expect but our engagement session before the wedding totally put us at ease. Hailey walked us through every part of the shoot. After some walking photos, dips, spins, and other cues we felt at ease. Eventually each pose felt more natural than the one before. Doing the engagement shoot made us feel like pros on our wedding day and the end result was better than we could have imagined! We are so happy that we chose to book The Brews Photography because the photos they captured were amazing, the colors and beauty reflected our wedding day perfectly. Don’t hesitate to hire them!”

I’m a wedding photographer based in Southern California, capturing natural, emotional, and unposed moments. My approach is calm and unobtrusive—I don’t over-direct or force stiff poses. Instead, I focus on genuine connection, movement, and the quiet moments that tell the true story of your day. Along with timeless photographs, I also create short highlight videos to complement your gallery. Now booking 2026 weddings, elopements, and engagement sessions across San Diego and Southern California.

Hi there! I'm Khoa, a San Diego based wedding photographer who enjoys spending time with good people and road trips. I love all things weddings because witnessing couples' happiness brings me joy and fuels my creativity. 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.

“We found Khoa after searching through dozens of photographers in SD County. We planned to have an elopement at the County Clerk's office and wanted someone to be able to capture the intimate moments of the day very artfully since we wouldn't have a big wedding or any guests. Khoa had excellent communication, was very professional, and made our day even more special by agreeing to be our witness. In a way, he brought me a lot of comfort since we didn't have any friends or family there. My now husband and I rarely take photos even for socials or anything personal and are super awkward in front of the camera, but Khoa provided just enough guidance and direction that it felt very natural posing for the camera without it feeling like an entire production or feeling too stiff. I really appreciated that he asked us what we prefer the focus environment should be-- whether its architecture or nature, to ensure that he captures the vibe we were looking for. He delivered the final products very quickly and his post edits were beautiful-- the colors, light, and balance of us and the backdrops were absolutely stunning. I highly recommend his service to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!”
