We could not have asked for a better photography and videography team for our wedding reception! Bayo was truly a mind reader — constantly in the right place at the right time and somehow captured every special moment without ever feeling staged or forced. Arlene worked quietly behind the scenes, capturing every emotional, joy-filled detail so naturally that it feels like we’re reliving the night every time we watch our video. Their professionalism, creativity, and teamwork made the entire experience effortless. We’ll cherish these memories forever!

What excites me most isn’t just photographing a wedding day, it’s delivering images you’ll come back to again and again. I focus on real connection, genuine emotion, and creating an experience that feels easy and comfortable from start to finish. Sometimes that means quietly observing the day as it unfolds, and other times gently guiding you when you needed. With nearly 20 years behind the camera, my goal is simple: to capture photographs that feel as meaningful years from now as they do the moment you see them. If you’re looking for someone who cares just as much about how your photos feel as how they look, I’d love to connect.

Lee was perfect to work with for my brand shoot! I was wanting to update my website and social media with new photos. I gave him a vision of what I was looking for and I couldn’t be happier!! Thank you Lee! Nurse Marisa Nursemarisa.com

Lulan Studio 
Rating: 5.0 (25 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Long Beach, CA

Lulan’s creativity has led to his path beyond most conventional definitions. He has won 25+ wedding photography awards, named the Best Wedding Photographer in Los Angeles; while acquired advance degree in immunology and medicine from UCLA.

Awarded Best of Zola
We found Lulan Studios about nine months before our wedding day. We were immediately drawn in by their professionalism and their reputation. Lulan is an inclusive photographer who was very receptive to our wedding vision. He and his team were incredibly kind, supportive, and helpful all throughout the process. We elected to go with Lulan Wang himself for our photographer who worked with an associate. After our initial consultation we were turned over to Shannon who was our go to contact for day to day clarifications and vendor contact until Lulan took over just before the wedding. Shannon was immensely resourceful and responsive. She communicated with our coordinator very efficiently and was always on top of our booking. We are very grateful to her as well for making the process so easy and for continuing that communication after the fact. On the day, Lulan and his associate were spectacular. It was clear his associate had more than enough talent for the job just like Lulan, but they divided and concurred by using two different types of cameras for different types of shots. We regret not doing an engagement session with them, but we will likely return for an Anniversary session in the future. We didn’t even need one though, because he is skilled enough that he understood us as a couple immediately. They made us feel comfortable and confident. They hyped us up and moved through the shot list masterfully. Nothing was missed and we captured far more than we expected. Please look through our attached photos as they speak for themselves. One of the most exciting moments was when Lulan handed us a little blue book filled with about fifteen physically printed preview photos DURING THE RECEPTION. A lovely surprise that absolutely shocked me. Turnover was 4-6 weeks and we got ours just before the six week mark right on schedule. We were floored. They are jaw-dropping. We ultimately got 950 photos permanently digitally available for high resolution download and access to a shop with impressive options for prints and albums of a wide array of types and sizes. I’m thrilled to show them to you here and implore you to consider booking Lulan Studios. We trusted in their ability from the beginning and we were not disappointed. They are among if not the absolute best in the business.

Hi I'm Carmelisse. I'm an intimate wedding & elopement photographer based in Los Angeles. I have a gift for making people comfortable and seeing the beauty in all diverse people. I want nothing more than to tell your love story right.

Awarded Best of Zola
I don’t even know where to start! Carmelisse was UNREAL. She was so so sooooooo wonderful to work with. My now-husband was dreading wedding photos and after the wedding he even said, ‘the photo part was actually fun’-direct quote. Carmelisse and Jon (our second shooter) made us feel so comfortable and natural and we had a blast the entire time. There were tons of changes with timing and location due to the weather, and Carmelisse was 10000% on top of it! She took charge, handled EVERYTHING, knew when sunset was, where/when to go for the best lighting, posing etc… she was just amazing. I really didn’t know what to expect—it was a destination wedding and Carmelisse took care of so many small details so I could just focus on enjoying myself. She is incredible at what she does and I’m so happy that she was the one to document our wedding! We love love LOVE the photos and her! She went above and beyond with everything and we definitely recommend working with Carmelisse!!!! SHE IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!

Mirage and Light Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (11 reviews)
Long Beach, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,600

Photography is my creative dream come true and it is so incredibly special to be able to capture memories that other people will love and cherish for many, many years. Around high school, I found out for myself how important these memories were. Not just the ones I was creating currently but the ones that I couldn’t get back. I would look back on these photos and think, "I remember how happy I was that day." "Aww, my little brother was so tiny then!" Or even, "What was I thinking when I wore that outfit??" These little snippets of time carried such a significance for me that I wanted other people to feel that way about their memories, too.

Mirage & Light Photography made our wedding photo dreams come true! Let's be honest, sometimes taking photos can feel awkward and that is the complete opposite of how we felt with Amanda. We felt like she was our instant friend who was hanging out with us on our wedding day. Our small and intimate wedding was held during the crazy times of 2020. Throughout the many texts and phone calls deciding if our wedding could or would even happen, Amanda was there for us. She always checked in and offered support. Amanda captured every detail of our perfect day. We have candid photos to the perfect little detail photos to the most beautiful portraits that we have already framed in our home. Amanda also had a few polaroids at the end of the night to give to us as a sneak peak. We received all our photos within a short few weeks of our wedding day. The photos are dreamy and just flat out gorgeous. The lighting in each photo is perfection. Amanda has a true gift for making photos look 100!

Having Kelly there by my side was amazing. She is so professional, but also wants to ensure that everything is exactly as I need it. She was very flexible with me, but then very firm with others when advocating for my choice, and I appreciated it. I felt so safe and heard, and she is the best in the business, making her the clear choice. She has the sneak peeks so quickly, and they were even better than I could have imagined.

Sarahi Photo

Long Beach, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200

My name is Sarahi. Born and raised in Los Angeles, CA. Since a child, I loved photographing with old polaroids and disposable cameras.. My family used to complain about the 100's of pictures I captured and how many rolls of film I used. Now, I look back at pictures from 10+ years ago, and see the beauty of "stopping time" in photos and keeping them forever. I see how it brings happiness to the people around me and myself. Nothing makes me happier than people looking back at precious memories. I can't wait to extend this experience to you and create an everlasting memory that you can carry for years to follow.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sarahi was so sweet and open in our consultation. We knew from the start that she was the photographer we needed. It was the first consultation with a photographer in which we did not feel pushed to book or left with any questions. She told us what to expect and and gave us advice if we decided not to book her! During the wedding she was so Kind and was able to keep my crazy family on check and participate in photos! We loved her and loved the photos!

Erin Paris Portraits 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
Long Beach, CA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,000

Weddings are rare opportunities to create meaning and magic for ourselves and the people we love, and that belief sits at the heart of my work. I take a holistic approach, starting with who you are and what you value, then helping shape a day that feels as beautiful as it looks, in whatever way is right for you. While photography is my focus, my background includes planning, coordination, and officiation, giving me a deep understanding of how weddings truly unfold. This perspective enhances every style of wedding, from timeless traditions to thoughtfully non-traditional celebrations.

I remember at the end of the day, being so overwhelmed with gratitude for Erin that my eyes overflowed with tears. As she is someone that has had so much experience with weddings, she absolutely played a critical role in prompting us to consider different things that she was able to anticipate that we had yet to imagine might be something of importance. I soo appreciated the way that she encouraged my spouse and I to turn our attention towards each other and gave us space and time to really absorb the events of our wedding day. I didn't feel like a number in a ledger when it came to her, but that she was there to be attentive to the thoughts and desires of our deepest selves. She was full of ideas and was so great with getting our nieces to look at camera for photos. (twin girls that were about two at the time) I want to print ALL of the pictures but have had to use some restraint as they are all so lovely. Her work exceeded my expectations and I would recommend her to anyone looking to have a similar experience and so many lovely photos to cherish forever. Thank you Erin! 3

Kristina Lee Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
Long Beach, CA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,500

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

I live in Long Beach with my husband, and our beautiful dog-daughter Rita. If I'm not photographing my incredible clients, I'm watching any entertainment I can, from the latest HBO shows or movie releases. But, there's nothing better than drinking a beer and laughing at some quality reality television if you ask me! I also love reading while drinking coffee in the morning, but nothing tops hanging with my friends and family, enjoying some drinks and sharing some laughs.

Such a pleasure to work with Kathy! She is on top of everything as works as hard as the wedding planner to make sure everything goes smoothly and that all the must-have photos are captured. She is very organized both before the event and day off. While being on top of things she still manages to have a laid back personality and blends into the background so you barely remember she has a camera all up in your face. haha. Plus, the photos came out Beautifully!! She captured our love and our special day so well. We will cherish her photos for years to come. Highly recommend!

Hi you guys, my name's Natalie, & I'm so glad you're here! I’m a joy-filled, Southern California surfer girl who is in love with capturing weddings.  My style? It’s timeless, romantic, adventuresome, & personal. I’m dedicated to capturing fine elegance + raw beauty all the while keeping it real + being authentic. Your job is to be in love & live in that excitement with each other. My job is to make it easy + enjoyable for you two to be yourselves, 100%, as I frame and capture those once-in-a-lifetime moments in a way that only my mind can. Congratulations to you both! Looking forward to getting to know each other! xx Natalie

Natalie is the most professional, genuine, and talented wedding photographer. I promise you that you cannot and simply will not find a lovelier, more generous, or more brilliant person to help you sidestep stress and make the wedding planning process and wedding day a joy. At our wedding, three different people asked me if I'd later share her contact information with them for whenever they got married. Just think about that for a moment: three people were so blown away by Natalie's warmth, energy, and beautiful, bubbly personality that they would hire her on the spot without having yet seen her stunning work and even though they weren't engaged. Natalie's smile brightens up an entire room, and she has a truly remarkable way of making everyone feel relaxed and comfortable. She'll make you laugh, she'll keep your energy up, she'll capture the moments you dreamed would one day hang on your walls, and most of all, she will make you feel like your day, your marriage, and your love are the center of the entire world. This gift of her presence and love is extraordinary, and I promise you that it extends beyond anything you could ever hope or expect to receive from any wedding vendor. I cried when she sent us our photos because they are so profoundly beautiful and so full of the true emotion that she naturally drew from even the most reserved of our family members. Every photo was so natural and full of light and joy. Natalie has so much talent, and if you're one of her brides you'll quickly realize how lucky you are to have someone care so deeply about you and about capturing your special day. Before our wedding, Natalie spoke with me over email and on the phone, sent a thoughtful questionnaire to help us articulate our aesthetic and photography hopes, sent a quick engagement gift, and even checked in over text to make sure I was doing well the week before the wedding. After the wedding, she sent cute thank you gifts and GORGEOUS photos (you will love yours too!). But my favorite memory will always be from our wedding day when she took a moment to dance with my shy 5 year old nephew and draw him out of his shell so he could enjoy the party. The huge smile on his face will always be one of my most precious moments of our wedding day. My nephew, like so many of our guests, still ask about Natalie all the time. It was a pleasure to work with Natalie and to get to know her, and I hope you too will be fortunate to experience Natalie's light, love, and unparalleled talent.

I'm Alli, a California wedding photographer. Imagine an artist who paints a beautiful painting, and each painting tells a story. Before you two met you had separate stories, now you're joining together and creating a new story as two, to me capturing that beginning is everything. Hearing the speeches from your friends sharing of your lives before, the laughter of your guests, the tears shed from a past loved one not being there, each moment is a brush stoke to the painting I will create to encapsulate your story that is your own and can never be replicated. Let me capture your story to hold dearly for eternity.

Alli Elizabeth Photos was the perfect photographer for our wedding day. From the very first phone call, Alli's communication style was fast, flexible, warm and welcoming. She felt like a close friend by the end of the wedding day - she was extremely kind and sweet to be around. Alli went above and beyond, arriving earlier than scheduled and staying late to ensure she captured all the photos we dreamed of. Her attention to detail and the quality of her work was outstanding. We are thrilled with the beautiful images that will allow us to relive our special day for years to come. Alli Elizabeth Photos is truly a gem, and we highly recommend her to any couple planning their wedding.

Hey there, I'm Rick! I'm a wedding, family, and portrait photographer based in Long Beach, California, shooting across LA and Orange County since 2018. My work blends stylized editorial portraits with real, documentary moments depending on what the day calls for. My editing is clean and natural: accurate skin tones, true to life color, and timeless. I also love black and white for the moments that hit harder without color. No need to overthink it. Just be present, enjoy the day, and I'll handle everything else. I'd love to meet you!

I could not be happier that Rick was our wedding photographer. From start to finish, it was a fantastic experience. He made my husband and I so comfortable posing in front of the camera and the finished pictures are beautiful. Really better than anything I could have hoped for. I would recommend Raasch Photography to anyone who wants to capture an important event.

My journey with photography began in 2012, sparked by a deep love for capturing moments that matter. Over the years, I’ve dedicated myself to developing my craft, refining both the technical and emotional elements that make a photo truly unforgettable. Photography, to me, is more than just a profession—it’s a way to preserve joy, love, and connection in a form you can hold onto forever. I find purpose and fulfillment in being part of life’s most meaningful celebrations, turning fleeting moments into lasting memories that my clients can treasure for generations.

Susana and the team at Shutterbug VideoPix were a joy to work with for our wedding. From our very first interaction, they were responsive, kind, and clear in their communication, putting us at ease throughout the planning process. Their work ethic is truly impressive - Susana went above and beyond to ensure we got all the shots we wanted, even suggesting creative ideas we hadn't considered. On the day of the wedding, Susana's passion for her craft shone through as she expertly captured all the special moments. Looking back at the beautiful photos, we're so grateful to have had Susana there to help make our day truly memorable. Susana is a wonderfully kind individual who is clearly devoted to her work, and we would highly recommend Shutterbug VideoPix to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

I focus on candid photos mostly because I love capturing my couples just the way they are! We will have fun, laugh and maybe cry together! I also do some posed photos here and there but I love capturing those moments in between.

From the moment we booked Golden Vibes Photo, we felt like we were working with family. Vanessa was always quick to respond, thoughtfully answering all of our questions and making us feel at ease throughout the entire process. On our wedding day, Vanessa’s warm and inviting presence helped capture the true feel of our celebration. She had already shot our engagement photos, so by the time the big day arrived, she felt like a member of our family. She went above and beyond, helping with little details and ensuring every moment was perfectly preserved. The final photos are absolute perfection, truly capturing the love and joy we felt on our wedding day. We are so grateful to have found Golden Vibes Photo and cannot recommend them highly enough!!!

Wedding content creator. Capturing all the in between moments so your wedding party and friends can enjoy the day with you. All content delivered back to you within 48 hours or faster so you can relive the day instantly. For photography, portraits, couples, families, and special occasions.

Working with Leanna was an absolute blast. Instead of making the shoot feel staged or stiff, she turned it into an adventure where we could relax, laugh, and just enjoy the moment. She has this amazing energy that makes you forget there’s even a camera involved. The photos speak for themselves. They’re vibrant, full of personality, and capture the genuine connection between us in a way that feels completely unique. Some of our favorite shots came from the little in-between moments we didn’t even realize she was catching. That ability to freeze raw emotion and turn it into a masterpiece is truly something rare. Beyond her talent, Leanna is just fun to be around. She’s creative, easy to work with, and brought ideas that made the session feel exciting rather than stressful. You can tell she truly loves what she does, and that passion comes through in the final product. If you want photos that don’t just look beautiful but actually tell your story, Leanna is the one. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and will treasure these images forever.

At the heart of everything I do is the belief that art has the power to transform and connect. Whether I’m photographing a couple on their wedding day, or a performer in the spotlight, I bring the same commitment: to seek out beauty, truth, and the story that deserves to be remembered. My style blends authenticity with artistry, capturing both grand milestones and quiet, fleeting moments. Beyond photography, I’m a musician, theater artist, and yoga teacher—creative practices that fuel my vision behind the lens.

Amal’s work is stunning, she has an incredible eye for detail and captures the most meaningful moments with such elegance and ease. What sets her apart is how invisibly she moves-- you almost forget she is there! Her photos feel alive and authentic, never forced, and she has a way of making people feel completely at ease.

I love colorful, full of fun, romantic, true-to-you weddings! A little about me, Ariel! I can't live without love, beautiful in-season flowers all over my house and adventure. I've been lucky enough to photograph weddings for the past 10 years; over 200 weddings!

Ariel shot my husband and I's Long Beach art district engagement session and our Joshua Tree anniversary shoot. I wasn't lucky enough to have Ariel photograph my actual wedding, but hopefully, you will be able to swoop her up because she is a gem! The testament to a great wedding photographer isn't just that they capture beautiful photos, but that they communicate and listen to you as a couple and make you feel at ease. Ariel is incredibly professional and makes sure she understands what you want out of your images, while also bringing her expertise and experience to capture those special moments that will bring you joy. You are in safe hands with Ariel if you're not comfortable in front of the camera or are afraid of looking awkward because she takes the time to help bring out that natural smile and loosen you up. I know this because I'm a self-proclaimed adorkable person who can get super awkward in front of a camera, and Ariel has a way of gently suggesting a better angle/shot or inspiring a more natural smile. She doesn't just click a button but is looking at the photo she is capturing to ensure she is snapping a beautiful image. Ariel also doesn't heavily treat her images with dramatic filters. She just brings out the beautiful colors and light of the day. If you want simply beautiful images, Lark & Lavender is the way to go! When you hire Lark & Lavender, you're not just hiring a wedding photographer but a creative artist who has a vision for capturing every beautiful and memorable moment of your day, plus she just makes you instantly feel relaxed and at ease which is essential on what can sometimes be a very stressful day.

Welcome. I appreciate that you are interested in learning more about me!! My name is Mary Claire (and yes, it's both names, sorry), but plenty of people just call me MC. I have been photographing weddings southern California over a decade now. I grew up in Orange County, went to CSUF to study photojournalism, and have been based out of Long Beach for the past five years, where I live with my handsome fiance and our adorable Golden Retriever, Theodore!

I’ve known Mary Claire since I was 15, back when we used to take photos together just for fun. Over the past 15 years, I’ve watched her grow into the incredible photographer she is today and I knew without a doubt that I had to have her capture our wedding day. Mary Claire is truly gifted. She has a natural ability to make anyone feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera, and her eye for detail is unmatched. Her editing is beautiful, timeless, and made every single photo look absolutely perfect. I am beyond happy with our photos, they are everything I dreamed of and more. I would recommend Mary Claire to absolutely anyone looking for a talented, kind, and exceptional photographer.
