Hayley is wonderful! So talented, captured our day so authentically and created a video that matched the style I was looking for perfectly. Extremely professional, sweet and helpful. She made the whole experience so seamless and it shows how happy we were that day! She is super responsive, receptive and is clearly such a pro. She truly captured everything and really put us at ease while filming :)

Not only is Precise Blend (James) one of the kindest people I've had the pleasure of working with, he is also very creative, responsive, professional and flexible when making your event come to life through music. He took time to really get to know us and it was important to him that we were happy and not stressed for our big day. He DJ'd our Sonoma Valley wedding and it was such a magical evening. His photo booth, music and lights really brought the venue to life and guests had a great time dancing. I love that his equipment is sleek, not bulky and doesn't stand out in photos. The app he works through is user friendly and I love that we were able to invite different collaborators to add songs to the dancing playlist. His team truly did a quality job on making the night memorable and I'm so glad we chose them as our music vendor! There is not enough good things I can write about Precise Blend and James. We had a few zoom meetings set up for DJ's and he was our first zoom call. We knew from the moment we talked to him that he was perfect for us and our wedding. We booked him last minute (probably 2 months in advance) and he was so accommodating. If we needed anything, he was a quick text away. He has a wonderful app to pick all your music and organize it from the processional, to the cocktail hour music, etc. I sent him a few songs that I wanted to surprise my now husband with to walk down the aisle and he put them together for me and made it perfect for us. Another great aspect was that our photographers Photo Booth broke from another wedding so we reached out to James and he made sure that we had a Photo Booth. It was amazing and the pictures from our family and friends are so fun! James has a wonderful team and made our night amazing and fun! We consider him family now. I would recommend him to anyone! Thank you forever James. We cant thank you enough! You are truly one of a kind and made our wedding amazing and so much fun! Sincerely, The Farleys

Welcome. I’ve been a make-up artist, chocolatier, a barista, a pet-sitter, a bartender but I’ve always been “that girl with the camera.” (I’ve also been, “that girl who sleeps on our couch” or “that girl who’s booty I saw in the newspaper” but I digress…). Currently, I base my photography business in Petaluma, CA. I grew up in Sonoma County but in my early 20’s I picked up and moved to Manitoba and that’s where I stayed for many years. Upon my return to CA in 2013 I turned my passion for photography into a career. It’s been a journey to call photography my profession, but I’ve always been a photographer and I’ve always been an artist.

From the very first conversation, their communication style was transparent and kind, putting me at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly above and beyond - they made me feel beautiful without the makeup feeling "caked on." The look was very natural but still noticeable, which was exactly what I was going for. Masara is phenomenal at what she does and is perfect for brides who don't wear a lot of makeup day-to-day.

We found Kristen Campbell Photography on Zola and absolutely fell in love! We reached out to Kristen before we even found a wedding planner or chose a date. From the very first interaction, she exceeded our expectations. During our initial consultation, Kristen made us feel so at peace with the decision to hire her to capture our wedding day. She was incredibly transparent about the details and pricing, and the contract process was simple and stress-free! Every vendor we connected with was SO excited when they found out Kristen was capturing our day, and each of them shared how much they loved working with her. Throughout the planning process, Kristen checked in with us regularly, always professional and genuinely excited for our big day. By the time the wedding week arrived, we couldn’t wait to finally meet her in person. Kristen photographed our welcome party and her warm and friendly personality immediately put us at ease. My husband had never taken professional photos before, but she made him feel so confident and guided both of us with clear, easy instructions. She captured our welcome party beautifully and was so gracious and lovely throughout the evening. After that experience, we were even more excited for the wedding day. On our wedding day, Kristen absolutely blew us away. She was timely, organized, and brought so much joy and positivity to the day. Beforehand, she talked through lighting and timing with us, providing recommendations for the best photo locations and schedule. We trusted her completely and were so glad we did—her instincts were spot on! Wedding photos can take time, but Kristen made the process genuinely FUN. Couples' photos, in particular, were one of our favorite parts of the day because of how relaxed and enjoyable she made it. Family and wedding party photos were equally seamless thanks to Kristen’s thorough preparation and attention to detail—she made sure everything was perfectly organized ahead of time. Our family, friends, and wedding party couldn’t stop raving about Kristen. Her positivity and professionalism left such a lasting impression on everyone. She truly brought so much joy to our day, and we are so incredibly grateful for that. While on our honeymoon, we received our sneak peek photos, and WOW—talk about a highlight of the trip! We couldn’t stop looking through them in our hotel room. Kristen delivered so many sneak peeks, and every single one was absolutely stunning. From couples' portraits to candids, family shots, wedding party photos, and intricate details—each image took our breath away. Kristen captured every moment so beautifully, and we’re thrilled with how perfectly she documented the love and joy of our day. The lighting and style of her photography were flawless, but even more than that, we love how genuine each moment feels in her work. Kristen, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We feel so incredibly lucky to have worked with you, and we will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives. Your work is a priceless gift, and we cannot recommend you highly enough!

My name's Meg and I'm an elopement & intimate wedding photographer based in Northern California. I specialize in unhurried, all-day and multi-day adventures throughout Sonoma County, Mendocino, Redwood National Park, and beyond. I help couples create deeply intentional and authentic wedding experiences in the outdoor spaces they love with a highly comprehensive planning framework.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we got married originally, we already had ideas of how we wanted our 10 year vow renewal to go. Fast forward to 10 years later (and several sessions with Meg already in the books), we knew we couldn't do this idea without her! When we first emailed Meg, she was already on board and so game to jump into the crazy idea of not only a sunrise photoshoot in the dessert but also a walking wedding on the Vegas strip and a club bus. Nothing seemed to phase her. When we got to planning, Meg was so helpful in keeping us keep on track and checking in with ideas or backup ideas. Once the vow renewal was said and done, Meg had all of our photos back to us in under a week (!!) and oh man, did she nail every single one! We can't even imagine picking just one favorite. Meg is the only photographer we could have imagined using and are still in awe that she choose to work with us on it! To this day, it feels like a fever dream of an event, and having Meg there to document it made it even more of a dream.

For over 20 years, I have succeeded in helping couples, individuals, corporations and organizations plan their ultimate party or celebration. I offer partial planning, full planning and day of management services. With an extensive and diverse background in the hospitality industry, I have a thorough understanding of the market and all the nuances needed to champion a client’s every need. Whether throwing a bridal shower, wedding, facilitating a yearly team fundraiser or a community event - I can help you price and locate vendors and entertainment, negotiate deals, choose themes and decorations, provide onsite event management and more.

Tyler has a lot of experience in the wedding industry and it shows! From the beginning she made it clear what the timeline would look like for our partnership - what would be needed and when. When I became a little overwhelmed half-way through planning, Tyler was able to pick up additional scope of work which was a huge relief at the time. She also saved me a huge headache by picking up and dropping off some of my rental items since the minimum order spend for delivery was more than double my rental quote (my wedding was in a pretty remote area so most companies charged a high fee for delivery). Tyler was very thoughtful and organized about the little details I didn't think of which showcases her high degree of experience and attention to detail. She wasn't afraid to push on things on behalf of myself and my husband with our wedding venue - which I really appreciated! We had great communication throughout the wedding planning process - centralizing information in a shared Google doc. Tyler was willing to review my own personal wedding planning documents as well. She was always quick to respond to emails or texts, and also let me know in advance if she was going to be delayed in responding. On the day-of, Tyler had a great demeanor - when I saw her I could tell she was getting down to business but she made sure to keep things calm and light with me - making sure I felt comfy and relaxed on my wedding day. She kept things moving in the wedding day so we kept pace with the timeline. She made sure to account for all the logistical things like where to store decor items before and after the event. She was fantastic at corralling all the wedding vendors, collecting all the documents and information and knew when to keep me in/out of the loop at all times. Overall I would highly suggest working with Tyler for her high degree of experience, organization, thoughtfulness, and overall pleasant demeanor.

Russ was an absolute dream to work with. Fun, friendly, great at sorting all the details beforehand and an absolute star on the day. The photos were stunning – we'd initially questioned whether we would even bother with a photographer, but after working with Russ, I can tell you, it is 200% worth it. Me and my husband have never looked so good in a photo in our lives (and likely never will again...). Russ perfectly balanced being a fly on the wall when it mattered (during the ceremony, etc), with giving us some much needed guidance for fun group shots and portraits. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Book him now!!

Daniel Neal Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. From the very beginning, Daniel’s communication was timely, offering helpful advice in a succinct yet friendly manner. On the day of our wedding, he seamlessly blended into the background, capturing ethereal moments that beautifully reflected the love and emotion of our special day. As a DIY bride without a planner, he helped set realistic schedule expectations and put us at ease, so much so that we hardly noticed he was there - except when he made us smile or laugh with his warm, personable approach. The final photos were absolutely stunning, showcasing the loving, intimate feel of our celebration in a way that truly exceeded our expectations. We couldn't be happier with the exceptional service and value provided by Daniel Neal Photography.

  • Serves Forest Knolls, CA

Welcome! My name is Aryk, I’m a self-taught artist who built my skills from the ground up. My experience in photojournalism and street photography combined with my love of fine art are the foundation of my style. My approach to weddings is that of a documentarian and a witness. My couples are folks who value quality and intimacy, and want their wedding day illustrated with a unique album filled with artful candids, punctuated by breathtaking fine art portraiture.

Awarded Best of Zola
Aryk is one of a kind. Our wedding was so beautifully captured thanks to them. As a wedding photographer myself, it was important for me to find someone that excelled not just in the technical aspects, but in the overall experience they provide their couples. Aryk always made me and Noah feel comfortable and listened to. They're sensible, communicative, professional, courteous, and always engaged. Always going with the flow, Aryk can adapt to change while still providing excellent results. We appreciated how Aryk's photography method provided us with a one-of-a-kind gallery: a blend of film and digital, all showcasing the genuine emotions I so desperately wanted captured, and in such a beautiful way. Our families and friends are STILL so in awe of the photos we came out with thanks to them. We love you Aryk!!

We absolutely loved working with James and his team on our wedding day! They were so professional, kind, skilled, and made us feel at ease. We were not super comfortable in front of the camera so I was nervous how our photos would turn out, but they created such a relaxed environment, and our photos turned out so beautiful. Really quick editing turn around too, many photographers we scoped out would take 8-12 weeks to turn around all the photos. James and his team delivered nearly 1000 photos to us in just a few weeks. He also came to our rehearsal the night before (completely unprompted!) to scope out the venue ahead of time. Overall a phenomenal experience. I cant wait to work with Bustle and Twine again for family photos in the future. Thank you B&T!!!!

Sammycakes

  • Cakes & desserts

  • Serves Forest Knolls, CA

I started Sammycakes in 2014 with a simple ombré rosette cake. The idea of opening up my own bakery, after being inspired by my mother always baking for special occasions, has always been something I imagined for myself since childhood. Since then, I have been featured in coffee shops selling breakfast pastries and created some incredible cakes for exclusive weddings in the Napa Valley area.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing Sammycakes for our wedding on June 27, 2025, at Viansa Winery Sonoma, CA, and our post-wedding event on June 28, 2025, at Brix Napa, CA, was one of the best decisions we made! As a destination bride, the thought of selecting a baker without in-person tastings or detailed discussions was daunting, but Sammycakes immediately put our fears at ease. She perfectly captured our vision, creating the most beautiful wedding cake and groom's cake imaginable. Beyond just being stunning, both cakes were incredibly delicious! We received so many compliments from our guests, with many saying it was some of the best cake they've ever had. The communication throughout the process was easy and clear, making what could have been a stressful experience into a smooth and enjoyable one. We're so glad we trusted Sammycakes with our special day. If you're looking for a baker who delivers on both artistry and taste, look no further!

  • Serves Forest Knolls, CA

Growing up in New Zealand, England and the US means I've had my fair share of adventures. I’ve spent 15 years telling stories through video, poetry, and photography - and the weddings I capture are rooted in that same deep attention to detail and care. With my sister as second shooter, a couple drones (Bug & Sheldon), and a documentarian’s eye behind the lens, I make art from the real. Having seen 30+ countries and indulged in every experience you can think of - I bring a global perspective and a personal touch to every film. This isn’t just a highlight reel. It’s your story - the way it really felt.

Alex was amazing for our San Francisco wedding! He captured everything from our hotel prep to the last dance at the reception. He handled all three locations like a pro - especially the gorgeous outdoor space and ballroom at the Conservatory at One Sansome. He got along great with our big wedding party (no small feat!) and stayed cool and friendly all day. Communication was on point before, during, and after the wedding, and he rolled with any changes without missing a beat. His technical abilities truly impressed us. The steady-cam footage was smooth and professional, while the drone shots added a stunning cinematic quality. We're obsessed with both our full wedding video and the shorter cut he made for social media. When I asked for a few tweaks, Alex jumped right on them with zero drama. What makes Alex special is how much he genuinely cares about getting your vision just right. If you want someone who's talented, easy to work with, and passionate about making your wedding video perfect - Alex is your guy! Highly recommend!
