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!

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.

Hey, I'm Marisa! I work with couples to help capture their dream wedding day! Most days you can find me drinking coffee in front of my computer editing the day away. If I’m not home in the SF Bay Area, I’m most likely in the Sierras or at a session off the grid. In my free time you can find me drinking wine with friends, maybe on a run, laying around with my dog, near a lake or finding the best tacos.

My name is Maddie Smidebush and I'm a photographer based in Brentwood, California and I believe in capturing the beauty of love through every lens.

Photography lives in the present and life is fast and fleeting. And so is a wedding day! Weddings are an emotional experience, a record of moments, journeys, visions and feelings, expressed in millions of unique byproducts. I'm the storyteller who gets the privilege of capturing it all coming together on one amazing, beautiful day. My approach is photojournalistic in nature but I'm creative and spontaneous. I edit with rich colors but keep the tones timeless and realistic. My goal on your wedding day is to be helpful and fun.

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.

I am an elopement and wedding photographer based in Northern California, who shoots for the fun quirky weirdos who are unabashedly themselves.

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.

I am a whimsical, cinematic photographer based out of Martinez, CA, a tiny town on the outskirts of the San Francisco Bay Area. My husband, Stephen, is a professional cinematographer who works alongside me for larger events. We love love. We have been together for 18 years, and built our artistic business together. It was me at first with a lot of love and support, but slowly he became passionate about it too. We want to provide the most fun day we can, and add some whimsy to your magical moment.

Welcome. Most importantly I am a lover of life. A Mommy of two wonderful, growing human beings that surprise me every day. I am a Wife to my high school sweetheart and really cherish the moments I am given with my family. Living most of my life in East Bay, California, I have been blessed to be surrounded by gorgeous rolling hills, beaches and wine country not too far away. This has created a wonderful playing ground for discovery as well as self-expression. I enjoy playing soccer and staying active.

Weddings are some of the best events across our culture. A good story, a gorgeous venue, layers upon layers of meaning, excellent fashion, the professing of love, a whole community coming together, and a really good party - what more could I want as a photographer. My background in art, landscape architecture, and graphic design shapes how I approach photographing weddings, from light and composition to the details that make each wedding unique. For me, wedding photography is about being present and noticing fleeting, meaningful, and joyful moments as well as the elements that give your day its character. I move through the day with curiosity, joy, and care, letting it unfold naturally so the images feel soulful, expressive, and alive.

I’m a photographer based in San Francisco, California. Pero, I travel anywhere in the world for destination weddings and elopements. I was born in Manila and at a young age I developed my love for photography watching films. I just had this feeling that I wanted to freeze time and hold on to moments. Besides my passion for photography, I’m an avid traveler and have a love for food! So, let’s get to know each other more and tell me your love story! I’m up for some good ramen and delicious ube desserts.

Hi, I'm Christina Hernandez, and I am passionate about emotional, documentary photography. After working 15 years as a staff photojournalist at the San Francisco Chronicle, I've taken my years of experience to create rich, memorable images for my couples. My goal is to create a photo gallery that tells YOUR story. You are unique and your images should be, too. I cry at weddings. I can't help it! I get emotionally invested and I won't apologize for it. It allows me to get into the zone where I am completely immersed in the moment and I strive to make images that reflect that. I love being inspired by new locations, and I go with the flow.
