All of MJ's photographs of our afternoon tea wedding are stunning!! I can’t stop looking at them! They look amazing!! She did such a wonderful job! I’ve been enjoying reliving the day and I love seeing everything from her perspective. She caught some tender moments I was surprised to see and I just love them so much!! MJ has a great eye and her timing is perfect!! I just love MJ's style. Looking at her website made me want to contact her immediately! The photographs have a magical glow, just like her personality. As soon as we spoke I knew I wanted her to capture all of the moments of our wedding. She is so easygoing and such a joy to work with. Her communication is quick and efficient and I never had any doubts about her arriving on time the day of the wedding, her ability to capture all the important moments, or how she would interact with us and our friends and family. She provided 48 sneak peeks so soon after our wedding day and then the remaining images about 6 weeks later, which was so quick considering Thanksgiving and the December holidays occurred during this timeframe. Thank you for making this part of our journey so effortless!!

Welcome friends!!! If you are looking for an adventurous, romantic, and creative photographer in Orange County, LA or anywhere world wide, you have landed in the right place! I have been in the wedding industry exclusively photographing engagements, Elopements, and weddings for over 13 years, photographing 700+ weddings in California, and around the country. I specialize in adventurous, romantic, and photojournalistic photography, perfect for the creative soul, and wild hearts!

TLDR: we highly recommend McCoy Wedding Photography! We were referred to Kay McCoy through a friend who had amazing wedding photos so we knew her services could be trusted. She also photographed another wedding for someone we knew and those photos looked great as well. The entire process was easy from start to finish and it was a pleasant wedding photography experience. The photos were delivered in about 8 weeks, and they turned out perfectly! Kay captured a great variety of shots throughout the day, including some creative and artistic exposure photos that added a unique touch to our gallery. We didn’t want traditional, overly bright, or boring photos, and Kay really delivered something special. The overall quality, professionalism, and turnaround time exceeded our expectations. We’re so glad we chose her to capture such an important day. You won’t be disappointed!

We had pictures taken when our daughter was 2 months old and our son was 5 years old. They were so good and patient with the kids. At one point, I had to stop and nurse my baby and they were so flexible. They even took a few pictures of my husband and son making the most of the time while everyone waited. Now we enjoy getting to look back at those pictures and the sweet memories. Wyld Story captured that time in our lives perfectly!

Jenny was hands-down the BEST decision and investment we made for our entire wedding weekend. From the very first inquiry, she responded so quickly, her contract was easy to navigate, and the whole process felt incredibly seamless. When the wedding got closer, we hopped on a call to go over my inspiration photos, and right away I knew we were in amazing hands. She had so many creative ideas for poses and completely understood the look I was going for. On the wedding day, she arrived early to scope out the property and find the perfect spots that matched my vision. My husband and I had never taken professional photos before, and she guided us through everything—posing, angles, what to do with our hands—she made us feel like naturals! My entire family LOVED her and could not stop raving about how sweet, talented, and easy to work with she was. We received our sneak peek album so fast, and my husband and I were absolutely obsessed. When the full gallery arrived, My husband and I made a date out of it, and the whole time we kept saying, “I can’t believe these are OUR photos.” They’re everything we hoped for and more, memories we’ll cherish forever. If you’re on the fence about hiring a photographer, seriously—do yourself the biggest favor and book Jenny. You will not regret it. I would choose her over and over again. Her pricing is incredible for the quality, the experience, and the magic she delivers. I cannot recommend her enough. Truly the best decision we made! THANK YOU JENNY!!! You made my little girl wedding dreams come true!

Hi I’m Abby! been told all my life that I have an artistic flair and a gift for creativity, but that’s not the only reason why I started my career in wedding photography. I’m the biggest romantic and feel things deeply — in my photography there’s no detail in your connection that goes unnoticed. The little winks and smirks that silently set your soul on fire, the quirks that stay hidden to everybody else but you, and the parts of them that somehow make you fall in love with them even more… They’re how I tell stories because I know that in time, those are the things you’ll cherish the most.

Abby made our day unforgettable. She had this ease about her that calmed me throughout the day. Anything I wanted to make sure we included she made it happen - even the smallest detail that I had forgotten about she remembered. She drove me up a mountain for first look photos. That right there is dedication. Not only was she supportive as a professional, it was great to have her there as a friend. I would recommend this amazing photographer to anyone. The quality of her work shows through her photos and her work ethic. She had sneak peak photos emailed to me the literal next day. Abby is an absolute wonder, and I will forever be grateful she was there to capture the most perfect moments of the most beautiful day. Thank you, Abby!

Hi, I’m Annie! Welcome to HoneyAnne Photography! I'm based in both Southern California and Virginia—sounds a little unusual, I know! My photography style combines the timeless elegance of editorial imagery with the heartfelt authenticity of documentary photography —each gallery is designed to feel like your favorite magazine spread or Pinterest board! I believe that everyone deserves beautiful, film-inspired photos that capture their story. HoneyAnne Photography was inspired by the golden warmth of honey. Much like the taste of honey is comforting and sweet, I want your experience with me to feel warm, inviting, and unforgettable.

HoneyAnne Photography was a delight to work with from start to finish. Their communication style was clear, bubbly and friendly, which made the entire process so easy and enjoyable. The quality of their work was truly amazing and worth every penny. They went above and beyond to contribute to our special day, bringing fun props, scouting the venue ahead of time to find the best spots, and even drawing inspiration from our vision. We found Annie online and were immediately drawn to her whimsical and stunning photography style. Once we started chatting, we hit it off right away - she is so personable and easy to talk to. We booked her for our engagement photos and had a blast doing a fun picnic-themed shoot. I have already recommended HoneyAnne Photography to another bride, and will continue to recommend them to anyone looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

I’m a wedding photographer who believes the best moments usually happen between the planned ones. My approach is relaxed, candid, and people-first, focusing on real laughs, genuine emotion, and the kind of moments that can’t be recreated. I’ll guide you just enough to keep things comfortable and natural, then step back so you can actually enjoy your day while I quietly tell the story as it unfolds.

We were one of the first couple weddings at the incredible Victoria Ranch in Vista. Daniel had shot events there in the past and led us to several very picturesque spots for photos. He was funny when we needed a laugh. He was patient when we needed some coaching. And he was thorough when we got to see our 450 picture wedding file! Thank you Daniel for helping our day be the best wedding day ever (Biased)

Since 2018, I've organically captured intentional connection at weddings. Above all, I want you to walk away from your wedding feeling like you and your new spouse were able to be completely present, immersed in a whirlwind of laughter and dancing and hugs from everyone you love most. Your photos should be a perfect reflection of that. The dream scenario is that you have a wedding photographer who gives off best friend energy and captures the day freely, unreservedly, with all the passion and excitement in the world because photographing love is a genuine pleasure and joy. I have been that person for many and would love to do it for you too.

Her work is absolutely STUNNING, and exactly what we were looking for: colorful, natural, editorial, and candid. She is the best of the best I wish I could get married again just to have more photos!

We are Nadia & Gunnar. We love being outside. We met during our early years in college on our school swim team and had a few photography classes together. It was through our mutual love of photography that we started dating.  Fast forward 9 years we are now married!!!   We are both passionate with two diverse backgrounds: Nadia in fine art and Gunnar in journalism/documentary film making. When it comes to shooting we feel we are blessed to be able to pursue what we love together. We are all about what’s real; capturing life’s small (and large!) moments.

Nadia and Gunnar are so lovely to work with. Not only did I end up with images I will love forever but they made me feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. They are professional and well seasoned. Their eye is incredible and I look forward to working with them again in the future!

"Who's that girl, it's Jess!" Hey guys, I'm Jess! I love all things New Girl, The Legend of Zelda, and Broadway Musicals! I like to describe myself as Jessica Day, minus the really talented singing voice, but just overall kind of quirky and nerdy. I love capturing love stories, and fan girling hard core over all things wedding! If you need someone who is going to help you walk through your planning process, I'm your girl! You can also catch me binge eating tacos and ice cream while editing until 3am!

If you are thinking about it, just do it. Jessica was absolutly amazing. Our photos or to die for! Not only is her work amazing but Jessica is literally the sweetest. I am not photogenic or comfortable in front of a camera and Jess and her team made me feel comfortable. We booked her along with Micah and Rebecca films and they are the perfect pair. Jessica was so helpful on our wedding day and make everything amazing. I have zero complaints. Our guests loved her and her team and had amazing things to say. I was shocked looking though my photos when I saw photos of things I never thought I would ever receive. I have a photos of almost every guest who attended our wedding. It is unreal! Jess made planning for the day so easy and picked up our timeline when my venue and planner dropped the ball. Her and her team saved the day and when things got stressful the day of, the were calm and acted like a shield for us from everything going south. Truly her work is amazing and she is worth every penny and more. Book her, add hours, and enjoy. You cannot go wrong.

Intertwine Films is a photo + video team capturing weddings as they actually unfold. Real moments, real energy, zero forced vibes. We focus on connection over perfection, movement over posing, and stories that feel lived-in, emotional, and timeless. If it felt big to you, it matters to us.

Everyone tells you the same thing when you’re planning a wedding, your photos matter. And honestly, they’re right. Working with Bryan and his team was such a great experience from start to finish. From the very beginning, Bryan took the time to really understand our vision and walk through the flow of the day, which made everything feel organized and stress free. On the wedding day itself, he ran the photo side like a pro...so calm, confident, and always paying attention to the details, especially lighting and timing, to make sure every moment looked its best. My husband has a background in photo/video, so our expectations were high, and they absolutely delivered. The quality of the images, the editing, and the final presentation completely exceeded what we imagined. We’re beyond happy with how everything turned out and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to friends, family, or anyone who wants their day captured beautifully.

Hi! I'm Ria, but my friends call me Ri. I'm a Southern California based photographer traveling worldwide for weddings, elopements & love. There's nothing that makes me happier than making other people feel fucking GREAT about themselves. I care about eternalizing your story, no matter your race, gender, sexuality or body type — i’m here for you.

If I could give this girl more stars I would. Her work is incredible and I had high expectations for my wedding (because she killed it for my engagement photo shoot) - and man did she blow it out of the water. I felt like I was reliving my dream day when I looked through my gallery - and cried so many times I had to call my mom. Her photos are best in class, and she's the most fun, down to earth person to work with. She made me feel so comfortable the entire day - even though it was 100 degrees outside. I can't recommend her enough, she's a rockstar photographer.

For us, it is all about documenting your day as it unfolds. We are believers that the best photographs come from letting everything flow. We don't believe in interrupting special moments to get a safe (posed) photo. On the contrary, we capture all moments: the fun, the crazy, the unexpected. We will get your dad in tears when he sees you in your wedding gown, and will also take your nephew in the middle of a tantrum. All that is part of your story. When you see your photos in 5 years, you will remember how your special day FELT and not only how it looked. You don't have to worry about photos, you just have to enjoy your day at the fullest.

I am a documentary wedding photographer blended with an editorial approach, and I aim to capture those special moments naturally as they unfold. I'm inspired by the genuine affection my clients have towards each other and look to document & craft your wedding photos with a candid eye. I don't want to dictate your day but let you enjoy your day. I may suggest small things like shooting portraits when the light is perfect, such as when the sun is going down, or I'll suggest taking a moment to embrace your partner & remind you to be affectionate on your wedding day. It's how I ensure you get beautiful natural images full of emotion.

Jesus was our wedding photographer for our special day. From our first interaction, Jesus showed confidence in his experience as a wedding photographer. He took the time to understand what I imagined my wedding photos would look like that is how he carefully planned, & captured my wedding photos. Jesus arrived 1 week early before the wedding day to scout out locations, shared photos with us, and seamlessly incorporated them into our timeline. We felt like we not only had a talented photographer, but also a day-of coordinator who helped ensure our wedding day ran smoothly. He made sure we not only captured the photos we would love but also took the time and went above and beyond to take care of us as people, offering to get water and making sure we had drinks or food. Ive never had an experience with another wedding photographer but I imagine its not a level of service thats common in the industry. The variety and quality of the final photos exceeded our expectations, and we are extremely happy to have such beautiful, and meaningful heirlooms from our celebration. We highly recommend Candid Moment Photo to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

I highly recommend Ashley as your photographer. I first came across her work from another friends wedding, and I specifically loved her editing/the way she captured light in her photos! The photos we received did not disappoint. I've been struggling to narrow down which ones I want to print and frame in our home. I loved the app we received within a couple days that had a bunch of previews--more than enough options to choose from for an initial Instagram post! Ashley was so sweet to work with, and made sure to capture everything we discussed in our calls leading up to the big day. It was so fun going back through all the photos after and seeing how many group/family photos she was able to capture of our guests as well. I feel like the day was documented so well and we kept getting compliments from our guests about how great Ashley was. During our guest table photos she was so efficient, but also checked the photos to make sure no one was blinking etc. before moving on to the next grouping!

I became a wedding photographer in a not-so-usual way. I remember telling my girl scout leader that I actually hated any arts & craft we did. Fast forward to many years of sports, and the pivotal moment of entering college, I switched to photography one semester in after realizing my current Marine Biology major was not for me and decided that was where I was headed. It landed me in wedding photography after a few classmates asked me to shoot their weddings. And since I’m a romantic and all…it was a perfect fit from the start. Something you should know about me is that I love all people, deeply. “Love your neighbor” is what I strive for.

Katie is one of the amazing few photographers I refer in Souther California. Her unique style and professionalism make her stand out above the rest. I love working with Katie any chance I get!

My name is Juan and I am a wedding photographer based in Laguna Beach, California. I was born and raised in Rosario, Argentina. My family, hometown, the people in my country, the beautiful nature, and culture of the place where I grew up nurtured my pursuit of being able to capture a specific moments. Since I was young, I dreamed of my perfect day. And now, I get to capture everyone’s special day. My photography style is romantic, journalistic, and candid. I love to use natural light to create soft and true-to-life images. I have been told that I am very passionate about my craft and I pride myself on fully committing to connecting with you.

Hiring Juan was the best decision we made for our wedding! His communication style was clear, easy, and helpful, and the quality of their work and value was above and beyond. He didn't just take photos, they created an entire story for me and my family. His professionalism, creativity, and warm personality put us at ease, and the photos are absolutely stunning—like something out of a magazine. They captured every special moment beautifully, from heartfelt candids to breathtaking portraits. Our family and friends can't stop raving about them! If you want a photographer who will make your wedding memories unforgettable, book Juan—you won't regret it!
