  • Serves Lemon Grove, CA

Hey there, I'm Ben! I believe photography is not just about clicking the shutter at the right moment. It's about capturing the essence of a moment, the emotion, the feeling, and the story behind it. My style is all about telling stories of love, laughter, tears, joy, and all the beautiful chaos in between. Just like your wedding day, every photo shoot is a unique, amazing, and important experience. That's why I pour my heart and soul into creating and capturing the special moments that make each photo shoot memorable. I'm not just taking pictures, I'm crafting narratives. We're not just making photos, we're making memories.

“Eduardo was very nice to work with since the beginning. He is very kind and professional and just does a great job without adding any stress. He provided some portfolios of previous work he had done, which were very photo journalistic, not just the posed shots, and we knew he was the one! He definitely has an eye for placement, reflections, and catching people’s authenticity. He spent the whole wedding day with us, from getting ready all the way till the sparkler exit. I never even saw him take a break. He even ran with us to get some sunset photos at a nearby vineyard while guests were having dinner. He even got some good shots of everyone on the dance floor without being too in your face, I didn’t even notice he was there! We got all of the photos we wanted and more. Eduardo definitely doesn’t treat his clients as a number, he understands the importance of the day and ensures that he captures it in a way that tells the story of the day. Highly recommend Eduardo for your photography needs!”

“We booked Katherine to shoot our wedding day, which also came with an engagement shoot session, and we cannot recommend her enough! Within the first few minutes of our engagement session we immediately could tell we were in good hands and that our pictures would be amazing. Seeing how incredible our engagement shoot turned out only made us more excited for our wedding day. Katherine was so amazing to work with and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She was professional and punctual and even gave us great advice when discussing other areas of our wedding! Our family and friends could not stop complimenting her direction and vision the day of the wedding and Katherine was so willing to look through some inspo photos I sent her prior to the day and looked for ways to recreate them at our venue. We were absolutely floored by her work when we received the photos back. The images are so crisp and the colors are gorgeous and she gave us so much variety! It is going to be so hard to decide which photos we want to hang on our walls!”

I’ve been happily married for almost 27 years. I have three awesome sons. My parakeets Kiwi and Sparky are very social, meaning very loud! Champagne (maybe that’s why I love weddings) and sushi lover here! Photography has been my passion ever since my dad gave me my first film camera and introduced me to the dark room at age of 10. I lived in Japan for 12 years, and even performed on a stage there. I’m always up for a great road trip! I love tuna fishing. I love hats and want to wear them everyday (over 20 hats in my collection). I’ve been shooting beautiful weddings for almost 10 years. I secretly cry at every wedding.

I’m a people person. I’m observant, intuitive, and deeply inspired by real connection. I care about experiences, emotion, and the kind of moments that can’t be staged. I love photography because it’s storytelling in its purest form. It’s the ability to capture energy, emotion, and meaning in a split second. What drives me is creating images that go beyond aesthetics — photos that hold memory, movement, and feeling. For me, photography is about preserving what’s real, so you can return to it again and again.

“Maya is a true professional with a creative vision and great imagination. She is so talented in capturing stunning images! Maya provided helpful guidance on posing and positioning to ensure we felt comfortable and natural in front of the camera. She was attentive to every detail, helping us select the perfect backdrops and locations. Maya's calming presence and warm personality made the photography experience smooth and enjoyable. The pictures turned out beautiful!! See it yourself!”

“Our wedding was genuinely a DIY wedding ran by the power of Hashem and our community way back in August 2025. We had one of our close friends, Jordan Daniels, who offered his phenomenal photography for our wedding ceremony. Unfortunately, Jordan had a previous obligation that did not allow him to stay very long past the ceremony, and that’s where Jessica comes in and shines. Jessica was another last-minute investment for us, as it was so important to capture as much of the day we possibly could. Although the wedding ceremony photos are so essential to capture the wedding party, traditions, and family, the reception photos Jessica provided us revealed the authentic joy and celebration the afterparty brought. Jessica was consistently responsive in her communication and fair with her pricing. Her turnaround speed after editing was also surprisingly fast. She understood, because she was popping in later during the reception, there was no need for her to ask to start her photography. She is familiar with the wedding venue scene in San Diego and knew exactly where the reception was without any issues. She is a natural and got started right away on capturing those genuine candid moments. She paid attention to the small details on the tables, the décor, the cake, the dancing, the friends, and the music. We are so happy to see these memories that will be here with us for a lifetime thanks to Jessica Paige.”

I would love to connect more with you at katieclarephotos. com! I was raised in Northern California and was drawn to photography in middle school and would enter photos of our family pets or family backpacking trips in our local county fair. My passion for photography grew while working as a hiking guide in Yosemite National Park. I mean… who wouldn’t want a stunning photo of Half Dome? El Capitan? Yosemite Falls? But it has been photographing wedding and couples that I find the most fun and rewarding. I strive to visually capture the “spirit” of my subjects and record an emotional memory of the occasion.

“100/10, one million stars, cannot recommend enough!!! We absolutely loved working with Katie from the moment we first met to take engagement photos. She was super friendly and made us feel very comfortable right away. For two camera shy people who felt out of their element going into professional photos, we were amazed at how quickly we got the gallery back and at how beautiful every single shot turned out. Our initial experience translated into an amazing wedding day with Katie. She was so helpful and communicative leading up to the big day and helping coordinate timelines, shot lists, etc. and did amazing adhering to everything we planned. Her guidance was incredible - she helped us achieve poses and photos that felt so natural and romantic and was our #1 hype girl all day/night. Our wedding party and family had nothing but amazing things to say about their interactions with her throughout the day and we were so happy to have her celebrate with us! The wedding gallery came back right on time and was extensive. We are so happy with the amount of photos we got back, the editing, the organized gallery, the quality - everything was perfect! We are so grateful for the hard work that Katie put in to create our most cherished memories and you won’t regret going with her as your photographer! We love you Katie!!”

She has such an incredible ability to make you feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, even if posing doesn’t come naturally to you. She guides you through everything while still making the photos feel natural, effortless, and completely like you. She also has an amazing eye for locations and scenery. She knows exactly how to choose the right setting, find the best light, and use the surroundings to create absolutely beautiful photos. Every session we’ve done with her has felt relaxed and fun, and somehow she always manages to capture those little candid moments in between the posed ones that end up being some of my favorites. Beyond being incredibly talented, Mirjana is warm, patient, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in the people she photographs.

“As the Mother of the Bride, i cannot say enough about Helen, our wedding photographer. When my daughter and her husband researched photographers, they were drawn to Helen's photos and her editing skills. And the fact that she was competitively but reasonably priced was a plus. During the planning process she was very accessible, and answered emails with complete and clear information. She is a warm and friendly person, but at the same time very professional. She had several virtual meetings with the bride and groom, and took care of every detail so that by the big day, we knew what to expect. During the wedding and reception, Helen was there to get the best shots without ever being in anyone's way. She emailed some beautiful shots after a few days, and then it only took three weeks to get the entire portfolio sent back to us! The newlyweds are absolutely in love with their photos. These pictures captured feelings and emotions, as well as wonderful visions of a perfect day. The wedding was at TImberline/Mt. Hood, and since Helen is a master of nature photography, the end result was perfect. I cannot recommend Anchor and Pine Collective enough!”

We had such variety of photos to choose from (settings, poses, lighting, angles) etc. One of our biggest insecurities was looking comfortable in front of the camera and not too "posed". Emily was wonderful a guiding us behind the camera and giving us prompts to make the photos feel natural and genuine. I cannot recommend her enough! Plus, we wanted to incorporate our new puppy into the photoshoot and Emily gave us all the tips and guidance to make sure that went smoothly! The extra photos with the pup are just perfect!”

Hi there! I'm Kayla, and I'm so glad you're here! I've spent the past six years capturing love, beauty, and joy across Southern California. Photography has been my passion since I was five, and turning it into a career has been the most rewarding journey. One of my clients shared: "The pictures came out beautiful and had my mom in tears. Kayla made us all feel so comfortable and beautiful. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again." If you’re looking for someone to capture your special moments, I’d love to help you create memories that last a lifetime!

“Kayla was absolutely amazing to work with! From the moment she arrived, her sweet and bubbly personality made everyone feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She captured our wedding day so beautifully…every emotion, every moment, and all the little details we might have missed in the chaos of the day. I’m so obsessed with her flat lays and how she incorporated our special keepsakes. I had mentioned wanting my colors to really pop, and she captured them perfectly! Her eye for detail is incredible, and she somehow managed to make every photo feel natural yet timeless. The turnaround time was so quick… we received a sneak peek soon after the wedding, which made us even more excited for the full gallery. Kayla also brought along a second shooter who was just as wonderful, and together they didn’t miss a single moment. We’re beyond grateful to have these photos to look back on forever. I couldn’t recommend Kayla enough to any couple looking for someone who not only takes beautiful photos but also brings such warmth and joy to their day.”

Hey there! I'm Linda. San Diego wedding and portrait photographer. I've been photographing weddings for 8 years and have loved every minute of it. I'd love to chat with you and share how I can help you get the best possible images on your special day while giving you a great experience.

“Linda did our wedding photos and she did an amazing job. We went over everything in detail before the big day to make us feel comfortable and ready. She scoped out the venue before hand and was able to take us to some great photo spots during the day. Our wedding day was very sunny and we were tight on time, but Linda still made sure to get all the shots we wanted and they look amazing. She was so nice and helpful and very affordable for the quality of photos. We will definitely go to her for anniversary for family photos in the future!”

To me, capturing the moments of your wedding day is not only about making photos. It is about seeing your love in every single detail. The way you look, smile, touch and hold each other’s hands are those tiny things that help me portray the story of your big love without any words being said.

I am a wedding and lifestyle photographer specializing in natural, warm, true-to-life photography. My business isn't just about photos, it's about people. It's not about transactions, it's about relationships. And it's not about one day, it's about a lifetime. At my core, I believe no moment is too mundane to capture, no day too average to celebrate. Hiring a photographer is an investment for you, sure, but it is also a gift to the generations that follow. Photographs are heirlooms, memories, and your visual legacy. I can't wait to connect with you and tell your story.
