I started shooting photos and video in Greece, and since moving to the US, I have dedicated myself to shooting weddings, elopements and engagements. I love being able to capture the love that my couples have for each other and the unique energy each couple has. I am always down to shoot in new locations and find the best place for my shoots!

We were so lucky to have Te Dua Weddings capture our special day. From the moment we first spoke with Enea, his communication style was filled with love and enthusiasm and he understood exactly what we wanted/were looking for . Enea and Hayley were a true joy to work with, making us feel cared for and appreciated throughout the entire process. I came to Enea with the idea of entering our Venue with a video rather than with a song. Him and Hayley both captured our engagement pictures and clips for our video. He presented a beautiful gallery of photos for us and then the video. Which was perfect to say the least! The quality of their work is simply outstanding and you can tell they put their love into what they do! We are so grateful to have such beautiful, timeless photographs as well as Video that perfectly preserve the magic of our wedding and Engagement. Te Dua Weddings truly was one of a kind, going above and beyond to ensure our day was everything we dreamed of and more. We cannot recommend them highly enough. We ran into issues 4 days before with our Photographer (We only hired Te Dua for Wedding day Video) and Enea was kind enough to offer pictures as well in between capturing for the video. He did something he wasn't hired to do and made our day that much less stressful. Cheers Enea & Hayley. We are forever grateful for you two!! I will for sure be re-hiring them for any future events and I would chose them Over and over and over again. Don't hesitate to look elsewhere, Te Dua Weddings, is the perfect choice! Enea, YOU OUTDID YOURSELF!! P.S. I even got my Cinderella moment and it was unplanned!!!

Loes Takes Clips 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Hercules, CA

I'm a photographer who loves, love and being able to share that through my lens is what drives everything I do. I have a deep adoration for storytelling and capturing the authentic, unscripted moments that matter most. I believe every love story is unique, and my goal is to bring excitement, ease, and a calming presence to your most important day. With a passion for preserving real emotions and meaningful memories, I aim to capture photographs that you'll cherish for a lifetime.

Logan has been a good friend of mine for years, so asking her to photograph our engagement shoot was a no-brainer for me. Her natural ability to bring any vision to life, mixed with her unwavering work ethic, is what sets her apart. I can tell her one idea I have, and she will effortlessly create something better than I could have ever imagined. We have a 1965 Corvette in our family that I thought would be cool to use as part of our shoot. I trusted her to tell us where and how we could incorporate it, and she brought our vision to life. She goes above and beyond, even standing in the middle of the road in Carmel-by-the-Sea as cars try to pass, to bring that vision to life. Also, we are far from naturals in front of the camera. I always rely on Logan to give us ideas for how to create movement and relax. Working with someone so kind and able to make you feel comfortable is crucial, because it not only creates an outcome you will love, but you will have fun doing so as well.

Vic was an AMAZING photographer for our wedding, we could not have possibly picked better. My entire family loved her, and she made them laugh so much- which was amazing considering some of us were nervous! She got to the venue and immediately had ideas for what shots to take, which helped me so much considering I hadn’t really planned what I wanted photos to look like. They came out amazingly. She captured every part of the evening, and the edits we got back are beautiful. I love the way the gallery is set up to make choosing photos easier and to ask for more later, or keep unedited versions too. Thanks to Vic I will have those special memories forever!

Thomas is the best! He is unbelievably talented and his communication throughout the entire process was clear, professional, and reassuring, which made everything so smooth and stress-free. He captured every special moment beautifully and from all the perfect angles. The photos are stunning and feel so natural and timeless. We’re so grateful to have these amazing memories to look back on, all thanks to his talent and eye for detail. He also included an engagement shoot that we had a couple of weeks before the wedding and those pictures are just unbelievably beautiful! He will tell you which poses to do and guide you to make sure the pictures come out perfect and natural. The number of pictures that he delivered was insane, and they’re all amazing! He sent over some pictures the day after the wedding and sent the complete list of pictures just a week after the wedding, which is an insane turnaround! He also had a couple of small cameras lying around and gave them to bridesmaids to capture their perspectives of our wedding. Thomas was the perfect person for the job and I highly recommend him if you’re looking for the absolute best wedding photographer! Several of our family and friends told us he is the best photographer they have ever seen as they watched him sprint all over the venue throughout the night to capture every single moment of our magical evening. That’s enough of me talking, you can take a look at some of the pictures he captured, his work is the best I’ve ever seen and it was an absolute pleasure to work with him!

I strive to provide all my clients with expert photography services and an exceptional experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kin Photography was truly the perfect choice for our wedding, and we feel so grateful to have had them capture our day. From the very beginning, their communication style stood out—they were warm, welcoming, and incredibly responsive. Every question we had was answered with patience and clarity, and they made us feel completely at ease throughout the planning process. It felt less like working with a vendor and more like working with a trusted friend who genuinely cared about our experience. On the wedding day, Kin Photography exceeded every expectation. The quality of their work was simply breathtaking—every photo was beautifully composed, with flattering angles that highlighted not just how we looked, but how we felt. They managed to capture the joy, laughter, and emotion of the day in a way that still moves us when we look back at the images. What amazed us most was how they seemed to be everywhere at once, catching every little detail and candid moment without ever feeling intrusive. They went above and beyond in so many ways, even staying later than scheduled to ensure they didn’t miss a single shot. That kind of dedication speaks volumes about their professionalism and passion for what they do. From intimate portraits of us as a couple to heartfelt photos of our family and friends, Kin Photography gave us a collection of memories that we’ll treasure forever. Beyond the photos themselves, they made the entire process comfortable and fun. We never felt awkward in front of the camera—in fact, they made us feel beautiful and confident, which is such a gift on a day when emotions are running high. And then, as if all of that weren’t enough, we were surprised with a custom USB drive containing our photos. It was such a thoughtful and unexpected touch, and it made receiving our images feel even more special. Looking back, we can honestly say that Kin Photography contributed so much to making our wedding day unforgettable. Their talent, kindness, and genuine care shone through in every interaction and every photo. We couldn’t recommend them more highly to any couple searching for a photographer who will not only deliver stunning images but also make the entire experience joyful and seamless.

I believe love is love and happily photograph couples of all backgrounds, orientations, religions and gender expressions. I aim to create authentic and emotive images for my clients and edit true to color so the work will be timeless. My personality is friendly and warm, which helps make my couples feel at ease and open up in front of the camera. I donate $100 from every wedding day package to a non profit organization (either the ACLU, End the Backlog or the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation) because I believe paying it forward in honor of love is an excellent first step into marriage.

Jenna was recommended to us by another photographer and it was such a pleasure to work with her! We greatly appreciated how much she wanted to know us and our personalities in advance of our wedding day. We ended every zoom call or email exchange feeling confident in our decision to work with her. The weather on our wedding day wasn’t very cooperative, but Jenna and team were on the lookout for any break in the rain so that we could go up to the roof and get a few pictures. And she totally nailed them—they are some of our favorite pictures from the day. Jenna and team made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and also captured some incredible candids. If you’re looking for a fun, positive, and easy-to-work with photographer—Jenna is the right pick!

I’m Cherlyn (rhymes with Berlin). So nice to e-meet you! If we met in person and it wasn’t during a pandemic- I would probably hug you! I’m an introvert-extrovert and tend to ramble too much when I get nervous. In emails - I tend to use exclamation points a lot!! (and will agonize over my drafts of emails before sending them because they probably have one too many!!) My aim as your photographer is to provide a memorable experience where you two feel comfortable, taken care of, and get to fully enjoy your wedding day as much as possible with all your guests & loved ones - whether they be in real life or via livestream!

Awarded Best of Zola
Cherlyn captured our elopement in November 2024 at Timber Cove Inn. Since this was a second wedding for both of us, and was very small (just us and our kids) we wanted to keep things simple, focusing on the beauty of the landscape with a simple, sweet ceremony. Cherlyn absolutely nailed it - she captured the vibe we were going for perfectly and the photos are absolutely stunning! I could not be happier with the photos and the experience as a whole. She made us so comfortable and that led to great photos where we look at ease, which is just how we felt.

I'm Hannah, a full time wedding and portrait photographer in Livermore, California. To me, photography is so much more than just hiring another vendor. And that's why you should choose someone you truly love to work with! I believe the real magic happens during the in-between moments – a secret smile shared by the parents; a tearful hug with the maid of honor; a quirky moment with the best man. These memories are far more precious than any staged photo, and these are the memories I want to capture for you on your big day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hannah captured our day beautifully. She was really easy to work with and it was such a relief to find a photographer we were so comfortable with. I was extremely picky when it came with choosing a photographer - I searched forever before finding Hannah and felt an instant connection when we spoke. Our search stopped there as we knew she was who we wanted at our wedding! I was really nervous for the engagement session but felt instantly at ease as soon as we begin shooting. She made my fiance (at the time) and I extremely comfortable and the session was actually really fun (not that we expected it to not be fun haha.... we were both just so nervous that we were scared for how it would go!). We had numerous guests compliment us for hiring her because of how delightful she was to have at the wedding. A few of our bridesmaids actually hired her to capture their wedding after working with her! I truly can't recommend her enough - Hannah is an absolute gem!

She approaches each session with a calm and collaborative energy that yields relaxed and natural photos. She was able to capture our day so authentically. Not only is she excellent on wedding day but she's responsive and organized leading up to it. She was diligent on creating and executing a shotlist and even added in some family portrait combinations that I missed on the first round.

I shoot with both film and digital to create timeless, heartfelt images that tell your unique love story. With a go-with-the-flow mentality, I will capture moments as they come and turn them into beautiful memories.

Hayden was absolutely fantastic! Not only did he bring his own camera and film to contribute to the retro vibe of our wedding (photo attached), he worked perfectly with our friend and videographer to get some incredible shots of my wife and I. His demeanor and humor made it so much easier and more fun to take photos and really set us at ease. He posed us in such a natural way that didn’t feel awkward at all and the photos were absolutely stunning. To top it all off, he saw my groomsmen and I setting up chairs for the ceremony and he pitched in to help us carry them! I cannot recommend him enough, he’s the man.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Jess. We used her for not only our engagement photos & wedding but our pregnancy announcement, maternity photos with both my babies, & newborn photos. I know Zola is a wedding website so I will keep it wedding related. She’s professional & fun. She makes you feel beautiful & comfortable but also makes you feel like she’s not even there.

My name is Connie and I have been shooting weddings and portraits for over 15years. The goal for me is to give my client an heirloom of their wedding day to pass down to generations to come. As a young kid, I remember staring at my parents black and white wedding photos for a long time. It captivated me. I am very lucky to have those memories and that is what I want for my clients. I love capturing beautiful imagery through posing, beautiful light and when there isn't light, I like to create it. I can be a goof ball capturing the unexpected filled laughter. Come look at my work, and hopefully we can connect.

Connie was so awesome to work with! Leading up to the wedding she was easy to communicate with and always responded to my emails quickly. When my wedding day rolled around she was at the venue on time and got to work. She was patient with everything going on, she had an assistant as well that was great! I told Connie that I was worried about taking pictures because I never considered myself photogenic, she told me not to worry. She did a great job! The pictures turned out beautiful! I love them! Now the hard part is choosing which ones to print.

From the moment we first spoke with Shane, we were impressed by his excellent communication style - he was incredibly professional, responsive, and quite charming as well. The quality of their work was simply superb, capturing all the most important moments with great skill and creativity. Shane was like a life raft in a tsunami, constantly on top of things and ensuring everything went smoothly. We could not be happier with the amazing photos they delivered that beautifully preserve the memories of our wedding. We highly recommend ShotsByShane to any couple looking for a fantastic photography team.

We had such a great experience working with Thoun for our engagement photos. She made everything feel easy and natural—there was no pressure to pose a certain way or act differently. She has a calm, thoughtful presence that helped us feel comfortable from the start, and the photos came out beautifully. We’re really grateful for the experience and would absolutely recommend her.

At JB photography, we are storytellers and artists who believe in the power of love, connection, and creativity. Our journey began on instagram, where two passionate photographers met, bonded over our shared love for capturing life’s beauty and ultimately fell in love with both each other and the art of photography.

JB Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. They are incredibly helpful, and thorough, and answered any questions or requests we had. Their attention to detail and strong work ethic were evident in every aspect of their service - they communicated closely with our wedding coordinator to ensure the day ran smoothly, and their dual-photographer team captured all the special moments beautifully while expertly managing their time. We were so impressed by how JB Photography went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect, and we would highly recommend them to any couple looking for talented, dedicated photographers who will make the experience stress-free and memorable.

Hi, I’m Briana! I was born and raised in The Northern Chicago Suburbs, and now reside in The San Fransisco Bay Area. I’ve been behind the camera for over 10 years, capturing everything from everyday moments to life’s biggest milestones. When I’m not photographing, I’m a gymnastics coach, which means I spend a lot of time encouraging little ones, celebrating small wins, and keeping things fun and positive. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me hanging out with my friends, playing with my cats Lana, Levi, and Zoe, checking out a good brewery, or just enjoying my quiet time.

We are beyond thrilled with our engagement photos! Briana was amazing at making us feel comfortable and relaxed, which made for beautiful photos. Every photo was a perfect reflection of our love and personalities. The attention to detail and creativity was outstanding. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out and how she helped our vision become reality. Highly recommend to anyone looking for professional, stunning engagement photos!"
