Awarded Best of Zola
10/10 Nick and I had the pleasure of working with Lulan and Sarah on our wedding day. They were exactly on time and prepared. They were so attentive, patient, and responsive to us. Never intrusive or demanding. Their direction felt very easy and natural; it made the unnatural process of taking hundreds of photos feel so seamless and easy. I loved that they took advantage of the space and venue. They have such a fantastic eye for composition and scale - my favorites are the wide shots that capture the cityscape behind. Their photos feel so timeless but fitting for the venue. We could not be happier with the results. I could not recommend Lulan and his team more. They were responsive to all of my questions throughout the planning process. Thank you to Lulan and Sarah for capturing our special day and giving us so many memories to cherish!

Fresh Studio

Lakewood, CA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,200

I started Fresh Studio in 2009 to share my creative voice. Fast forward to 14 years later, it has become a platform for telling visual stories about the beauty of human connection and celebration. I live to experience the richness of collective human energy. Whether it's a wedding, a convention of the minds, or a performance on the stage, I'm at my best in this world when I'm behind a lens using photography to document your important moments, freezing them in time to live beyond a single day.

Jami was our wedding photographer during a post-pandemic time when all wedding vendors are completely overwhelmed. And yet whenever I connected with Jami, I felt like I was receiving her full and direct attention. My husband and I are not the most natural in front of the camera, so it was very important to us to have someone that could make us feel comfortable and come out of our shells and Jami exceeded those expectations. Her vibes and energy are unmatched. Shooting with her and having her present on our big day was a blast and simultaneously the calming energy needed to re-center and focus on each other. I will without a doubt be recommending Jami to everyone I know, as well as continuing to use her for any future life milestones. Her style and talent are evident in her work, but SHE is what brings it out of people. 1000/10 recommend

I’m Adam—a Boston native who’s now roaming around California photographing everything I see. When I’m not behind the camera you can usually find me in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes, sipping a dirty martini with friends, jamming to Taylor Swift in the car, or taking my rescue pup Ollie to the park or on long neighborhood walks. I got my first film camera when I was 8, and it was love at first sight. Capturing your story is more than just a job for me. From destination elopements to parties of the century, I've seen it all and love every minute of a wedding day.

Not only did he give us the gift of the most beautiful photos I've ever seen, but he was also such a joy to be around.

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.... :)

Awarded Best of Zola
While looking for a photographer we wanted to find someone we felt comfortable with, yet pushed us out of our box for the shots we had saved on our mood board. Hanna did just that! After chatting with Hanna for only 15 minutes we knew she was the person who could document our love story through still images. When it came time for our engagement photos we were very indecisive on locations and vibes. Hanna was eager to jump on as many calls as needed to brainstorm ideas with us. We went back and forth for weeks planning and finally, when the day of our engagement photos came Hanna brought all of the good vibes and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She guided us and made sure every detail was perfect to give us the best outcome. We will treasure those photos and memories from that day forever. When our wedding day arrived she worked diligently to make sure we all stayed on schedule, and was constantly one step ahead of us to ensure we got all of our photos we requested on our shot list while still making the morning so much fun with her. Hanna and her team truly did not miss a beat the whole day. I cannot say enough incredible things about Hanna and our experience working with her. We are so excited to work with her again in the future! Allie Jack

I'm also a ceramicist, houseplant enthusiast, traveler (no place is too far), enneagram 4, ice cream lover, and introvert fascinated by human emotion. Photographing weddings has truly been my dream job, and I feel so honored every time I'm invited to capture intimate moments in peoples’ lives.

Awarded Best of Zola
Brittney is EVERYTHING. She shot my sister’s shore wedding and delivered such gorgeous photos, we knew we needed her for our wedding! We were married in Punta Cana and Brittney made all the photography/destination logistics SO EASY. Looking at our photos, you would have no idea that Brittney only saw the location the day before our wedding. She captured the beach location perfectly. But where Brittney truly sets herself apart from other photographers is in her ability to capture candid moments. Looking through our wedding album is so emotional because the photos perfectly reflect how everyone was feeling throughout the day. And finally, I cannot write a review that captures her skill without mentioning her as a person. Brittney is kind, fun, and sensitive. She has such a calm presence during your wedding that she disappears into the background (this is how she is able to capture so many candid moments). Since my wedding, she has continued to be a thoughtful friend who is always down for a coffee date. I love Brittney. Hiring her was the single most important decision I made for my wedding!

Born in the desert (AZ Baby!) and relocated to the sea. I firmly believe that a good day starts with a cup of coffee and ends with glass of red wine. I own more jewelry than I do clothes and in my opinion, too much gold does not exist. My biggest passion will always be photography. I’ve had a camera in my hands since I was a little girl – I would even set up “stylized shoots” in my family’s living room that consisted of sheets pinned to the wall, my friends and fake flowers (embarrassing, but I’m not kidding!). I strive for those editorial, Vogue-like shots, but I really live for those private, in-between moments.

We loved every minute with Kristina! She traveled to Arizona to shoot our engagement photos and she came all the way to Jamaica to shoot our Wedding. She has such a creative way of capturing the beauty of a single moment so effortlessly. I know, years from now when I see these photos, my heart will still race the way it did that day. For that, I will be forever grateful! When you think about it, there's very little remaining of your wedding day. The flowers have gone, the guests have flown home, you are back at work. About the only thing that remains is the photos, so I think it is a great investment to get the absolute best, and for that I would recommend Kristina Lee Photography every time!

Darren is an amazing photographer. From the actual photos to his beautiful personality, I couldn’t be more pleased. His calm and friendly demeanor really helped keep me calm as well. He was on time, kept with the schedule, was extremely flexible and understanding. The photos came out so perfect, and I will cherish them forever. I plan on working with him again in the future! Thank you Darren!

We absolutely loved working with Heather and her team. I, personally, am not comfortable in front of the camera and I get extremely camera shy. Heather, being the awesome person that she is, has a way of directing the photo shoot that makes it fun and natural. We love our pictures and the memories Heather was able to capture from our engagement shoot + our special day. 10 out of 10 would recommend and I'm glad to have made a new friend from working with her!
