“Mary was so incredible to work with! We worked with Mary for our engagement photos and wedding day. Mary got to know my husband and I and captured photos that really felt like us. Neither of us naturally love being in front of the camera and Mary worked to bring us out of our shell. We couldn’t be happier with the way our engagement photos turned out and wedding sneak peaks!”

LOVE by Sergirée

Los Angeles, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,500

My name is Sergio. My wife Desirée and I run LOVE by Sergirée together out of Los Angeles. I have been behind a camera for 15 years and weddings are where I do my best work. I shoot every wedding personally and edit every gallery myself, so what you see in our portfolio is exactly what you get. Desirée leads everything you cannot see, from the first email to the final album. Whether you are planning an intimate ceremony or a celebration with a full guest list, our approach is the same. Be present. Be honest. Let the moment unfold.

“LOVE by Sergirée photographed our wedding this past June and we could not be happier. Sergio covered our whole day, from the ceremony at the Old Brown House to dinner at De La Nonna and the karaoke afterparty, and he even rode the party bus with us between stops. He also did an engagement session with us in Highland Park a few weeks beforehand, which was a blast and got us comfortable in front of the camera well ahead of the wedding. The compositions and editing are gorgeous, but what really got us is his eye for capturing moments, some we didn't even realize were happening. Having all those little interactions, expressions, and details to look back on means everything. Beyond the photos, it was just delightful having him there. Our friends at Dinner Table #1 definitely lucked out. We couldn't have imagined a better person to document such a beautiful day, and if you're looking for a wedding photographer in LA, book Sergio.”

I took up photography at the ripe age of 11 with a Polaroid I borrowed from an aunt. It quickly became my sketchbook as I worked to capture stills of the world and people around me. Those images have continued to pay emotional dividends throughout my life, helping me better understand what I have now come to see through a new scope. They are grounding, melancholic, funny and beautiful. Some of my most cherished possessions.

“Our experience with Xenia and Mark (videographer) was truly amazing. Xenia is truly a dedicated professional and her camera work is truly phenomenal. We booked Xenia for both our engagement and wedding photos and she completely exceeded my expectations! We originally booked Xenia and Mark for our wedding in May but unfortunately our wedding venue closed last minute and we were left to scramble in finding a new venue and once we did Xenia was so accommodating and made the new wedding date work. Xenia and Mark are super easy to work with; truly genuine individuals! I scoured through hundreds of photographers before I came across Xenia and honestly, none of them compared to her work and eye for photography. Stop your search and book her; I promise you won't regret it. Thank you, Xenia and Mark!”

“Fatima was such an incredible photographer (and person) to work with! Fatima was on a recommended vendors list my wedding planner, Koral Gerwatosky, provided me. When looking for a wedding photographer, I was really drawn to photojournalism photography style -- focusing on capturing the real, unscripted story of the day through candid and authentic moments. Fatima will do just that. The minute I saw her portfolio, and spoke with her over Zoom for our a consultation, I felt confident that she would capture our wedding beautifully. I went with her 8hr photo coverage with film photography polaroids, plus an engagement session. I love that she offers film photography polaroid shots alongside digital. It added the perfect touch of nostalgia and warmth that I love to our wedding gallery. Fatima was so easy to work with. We unfortunately had to postpone our wedding date from May 2025 to October 2025. She was so accommodating with moving dates. We were unable to do our engagement session before the wedding, but Fatima was more than happy to reschedule that for the new year. Despite only having met her over zoom and email (given we were not able to do the engagement session prior to our wedding), Fatima was so kind, warm and great at making you feel comfortable when shooting. I can feel awkward in front of the camera, but Fatima was so helpful in giving direction, shooting quickly and discretely. She was so efficient when shooting. We did a first look for our wedding, and we finished our family friends portraits w/ a few minutes to spare. It never felt rushed or overwhelming. During the ceremony, cocktail and reception, she was great at capturing everything behind the scenes, hardly being noticed or seen. It allowed us to really be in the moment. Because of that, she was able to capture so many beautiful, candid moments of our friends and family from that night. My husband and I are so happy with our wedding gallery and couldn’t recommend Fatima enough! She was able to capture our love so perfectly, along with the love and joy of our friends and family. If you are searching for a photographer who is able to tell a story through photos, Fatima is your person. We are grateful to her for giving us such a beautiful gallery we can cherish for years to come. We are so excited to get to work with her again in January for a family session!”

“We hired Nate, Vanessa & Keren to shoot our welcome party and wedding and HOLY COW they blew us away! From our first meetings over Zoom, we knew we'd made the right choice. Aside from their obviously gorgeous work, we chose them because their vibe is so down to earth, comforting, and fun. During the two parties, they were efficient and blended right in with our guests so all of our pictures felt organic, which was important to us. We opted to do half on film, half on digital and were completely speechless at how it all turned out. The cherry on top was how quickly we got our pictures back: we got the email one month after our wedding while we were on our honeymoon! So special to relive that day in that setting, and we were so impressed with that turnaround. We already know we'll be hiring this team down the road once we start a family.

Kenzie Kate Photography

Los Angeles, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,500

I'm admittedly wary when it comes to the Wedding Industry and all of it's bells/whistles/expectations, and at the same time, I believe wholeheartedly in the power of community, love, commitment, and collective joy. I think that weddings-- in all of their forms and reclamations-- ultimately serve a great purpose in reminding us of these gifts. I come from a long line of meticulous documenters and hold a degree in Sociology, all of which informs the way I approach photography. I am curious about people, am in awe of the display of emotion, and am passionate about the ways in which we construct family and community.

“My husband and I worked with Kenzie for our engagement session in the summer of 2021 and our wedding in the spring of 2022. As you can tell from the timeline both sessions were at the peak of the Pandemic. This season was filled with excitement but also stress as we balanced our family's health, our deepest desires for the wedding, and the weight of the global pandemic. Kenzie gave us the peace that we so desperately needed. All in all, she was our favorite wedding vendor. After our initial onboarding Zoom call, my husband and I turned to each other and screamed did we just make a new best friend?! She is not only professional but personal. She has a great artistic vision but also respected the direction we gave. Kenzie takes a photojournalistic approach to her work and because of that, we feel like these moments are enshrined in history! My favorite Kenzie touch was the pre-wedding survey she provided us that helped her understand what emotions we had going into "the most important day of our lives". She prompted us with questions about the relationship dynamics between our family and friends, and the quirky details of our love, and our answers allowed her to capture more than just a single snapshot in time. Kenzie's photos capture FEELINGS. Thank you thank you thank you and we cannot wait to work with you for our next life event!!”

The kind of work I do within the wedding photography genre is very distinct - every image stands on its own as a thoughtful composition as if from a cinematic art house film or high-end commercial/editorial shoot. My color grading is immediately identifiable and unique - developed through years of studying color theory - uncommon today in a sea of 'presets' that other photographers purchase on the internet for they have no knowledge of how to build their own. My compositions are often quirky, surprising, different. I always attempt to show a point of view that's uncommon and fascinating to the viewer.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,600

I believe the best photos occur when... artistry and intentionality meet moments of heartfelt connection. I'll guide you towards the dreamiest light and offer unobtrusive direction that lends to natural movements and sincere emotion. I also slow things down and help re-center everyone, creating space for beautiful moments to unfold, like mom fluffing your veil, dad's expression when he sees you all dressed up, and fleeting looks between you and your partner.

“We cannot recommend Elena/Elyana enough. We used her for both our engagement photos and our wedding, and we are so incredibly glad we did. We just received our full wedding gallery, and the photos absolutely did not disappoint. From the beginning, she understood the vision I had for the day and brought it to life even better than I imagined. We had a very specific vibe for our wedding — Pasadena City Hall for the ceremony and then a backyard reception in South Pasadena with a bougie lounge feel, blacks, silvers, candlelight, and lots of fun personal details. She captured all of it so beautifully. What I loved most is that the photos feel like us. She captured the big, beautiful moments, but also all of the fun, candid, slightly chaotic, perfectly “our people” parts of the day. The laughter, the energy, the dance floor, the little reactions, the details — everything came through in a way that lets us relive the day all over again. She also fully embraced the more creative photo ideas I had, including the crazy box photos I wanted, and absolutely nailed them. Those were something I had been so excited about, and seeing them actually come to life was amazing. Having worked with her for our engagement photos first, we already knew we were in great hands by the time the wedding day arrived. That made the whole process feel easy and comfortable, and it really shows in the final photos. Wedding photos are such a huge part of remembering the day, and Elena/Elyana gave us a gallery that feels emotional, fun, artistic, and completely personal to us. We are so grateful we had her as our photographer and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who can capture not just how your wedding looked, but how it felt.”

“We loved our experience with Cat and Adi at Next Exit Photography. From day one they were kind, reassuring, and knowledgeable about so many parts of the wedding experience and they really felt like we were in great hands with them throughout the planning and execution of our day. Day of, photography is such a huge part of the experience, and Cat and Adi both really made us feel comfortable and filled the day with laughter, creativity, and fun! And, of course, they take amazing pictures and made us look like the best version of ourselves and our families in every photo. We have over 600 favorited photos right now, and reducing that number is proving to be quite a task because they're all so amazing. Can't thank them enough- you won't regret having them as a part of your day!”

Tida Svy Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Los Angeles, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000

Ayyy it’s ya girl Tida (like pita)! I’m not just another photographer – I’m your hype girl, your ally, your eyes and your ears on your wedding day. I’ll be there freaking out shouting “YASSS OMG HOT FIRE ALERT” hyping you up during portraits because holy-shit you look amazing AF! I’ll be dancing circles around your guests while I shove my camera in their faces, fixing your hair when the wind gets too cray, and confidently (and loudly) directing your family portrait time. I’m a tiny ball of giant energy and gurl, it shows on your wedding day – TRUST.

“From the moment we met Tida, we felt her energy was going to be a great compliment to our Wedding day. She was very easy to work with and really went above and beyond for us on several occasions. We battled crazy PNW weather and her flexibility allowed us to get fall engagement photos we were thrilled with. She crossed mountain passes during the snow storm of the year and arrived a day early to ensure she wouldn't miss a moment on our Wedding day. The result...gorgeous wedding photos we got thanks to her handy work and a foot of fresh snow!! Since then she's taken the time to do holiday mini-sessions with us that included our fabulous new fur-baby for our family Christmas cards. She stopped at nothing to get his attention! It's been great having someone we trust that feels more like a friend to help us document our journey. We look forward to her capturing many more moments to come!”

Jonathan Moore Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Los Angeles, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000

My name is Jonathan Moore. I am a Los Angeles based wedding photographer and available worldwide. I'll get right to it: The very last thing I want is for you to think of your experience with me as a "photoshoot." I think that posed "prom" photos are totally lame and reflect absolutely nothing unique about you or your partner. After all, you are not actors pretending to be "in love," so why should your images reflect that? At the core, your images should ultimately remind you of why you fell in love in the first place. This is what we're celebrating!

“Working with Jonathan was awesome! Communication was easy and we met with him and did a tour of the venue to align on exactly what we wanted. He was super helpful on the day but didn’t get in the way at all! The photos were absolutely amazing, we seriously couldn’t be happier with the output. He really captured who we are and how we feel About each other without any awkward posing which I personally hate lol. Thanks so much!!!”

“Thank you so much to Ashley and the team at Sorelina LA for making our vow renewal ceremony so special. We originally eloped in Long Beach in 2021, and now that we've welcomed a baby into the mix, we thought it was time to renew those promises. Jeremiah was a gracious and lovely officiant, and Kaitlin's photos are genuinely breathtaking. The day couldn't have been better. Thank you to all of you for making our time and commitment so special.”
