Awarded Best of Zola
We loved working with Murtaza and the MKEShoots team for our 6-event Indian wedding, plus engagement shoot. His passion for the art was so infectious, especially since it was our first time doing professional photos. It took us some time to warm up to the camera, but once we did, well, the pictures really speak for themselves. Murtaza especially has an incredible eye for creative photo ideas, and he and the team made it so much fun even though we were stressed out with all the wedding drama. They scoped out noteworthy outdoor locations that made amazing backdrops, helped corral family members together for group photos, and just generally went above & beyond to make sure we had coverage of all the important moments - all the big things and the small details too. The photos we ended up with were beyond what I imagined, I'm thrilled with how they turned out. Now, I just need someone to help put the wedding album together.... :)

Hey there! I'm Madison- a seasoned elopement and wedding photographer based in sunny Southern California. Since 2017, I've been on a mission to capture life's most precious moments through my lens. My photography style? Think sweet, golden, and bright – a reflection of the radiant energy of California living.

Madison was absolutely amazing to work with! I loved her editing style after finding her on instagram and had to reach out to her! She really made the entire process so easy. She was super communicative, incredibly sweet, and even offered a payment plan, which was such a help. We instantly felt comfortable around her, and her warm personality made all the difference. As part of our package, she included a complimentary photoshoot, which was such a thoughtful bonus. About a month after our wedding, she delivered over 800 beautiful photos (so hard to narrow it down to only a few for this post!), and even surprised us with a sweet personal gift. If you're looking for a wedding photographer, I can’t recommend Madison enough!

I cannot say enough good words about @eastonstudios! The clear and consistent communication on how much each package would and what each included was extremely helpful. Nancy was very kind, patient, and not pushy at all with wanting us to choose options. The entire time working with her was pleasant-before, during, and after the wedding. She was on time and communicated how she would start and end the photos for the package we chose. The photos are absolutely gorgeous! I am so proud of each and every memory that she caught-especially extra surprise of close ups and different decor and activities throughout the wedding. She has a gift for getting the right shot at the most perfect time. The photos take me back to my wedding day, that I can relive each time I see them.

Renee and Ricky are two of the most incredible people I’ve met, not only did we immediately feel comfortable with them but they became more like friends. They are so insanely skilled at their craft, Renee knows exactly how to capture every moment. Having them both there at our wedding truly made Dylan and I feel so at ease. They were so helpful, they went above and beyond. They made sure Dylan and I were good the entire time, they were constantly checking on the two of us asking if we needed anything(water, food etc). When we need photos we will make the drive out to California just to have our photos taken by Renee and Ricky. There’s no other photographer/ videographer I would recommend other than these two!

I’m a thrift shopper who loves cozy blankets and good pasta.

I like to think that my style is natural and genuine :) I smile big, love to laugh but also might cry at your first dance.

Emily was amazing! My wife and I loved all our pictures from her and Angel! Emily was punctual, professional, easy to communicate with, and really personable. The wedding was a blur at times that it was so awesome to see what other guests were doing because of the pictures. We recommend Emily over any photographer. We also highly recommend getting a second shooter. We could not be happier with our pictures!

Brianna was a real pleasure to work with for both our engagement and wedding photos.

Brianna has a gentle spirit and was great at making suggestions, asking about preferences, and doing it all in a manner that put me at ease. She was also really great at communicating with us about when our pictures would be ready and options for albums. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to work with!

She moved throughout my busy day with ease and it felt like she wasn't even there at times which made it possible for her to catch candid moments. I still look back at my wedding photos in complete awe that she could capture those moments and make them so aesthetically beautiful! She's so professional yet also feels like a friend.
