Justin really nailed it. He was flexible, easy to reach, and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. He has a gift for capturing both the big moments and the little details, and his candid shots feel timeless. Beyond his talent, he brought kindness to our guests and patience when challenges came up.

I started shooting photos and video in Greece, and since moving to the US, I have dedicated myself to shooting weddings, elopements and engagements. I love being able to capture the love that my couples have for each other and the unique energy each couple has. I am always down to shoot in new locations and find the best place for my shoots!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very first phone call, Enea set the tone for everything that followed. We’re not “picture people” at all, so the idea of an engagement shoot at San Francisco City Hall had us both quietly panicking. Enea’s warmth, humor, and genuine conversation melted every ounce of awkwardness away. We laughed more than we posed, and somehow walked out with **stunning, frame-worthy shots** that still make us grin. My husband loved them so much he had them printed and sewn onto the lining of the vest he wore on our wedding day – talk about a keepsake! Come the wedding day, Te Dua’s team was a dream. We got all the classic staged portraits we wanted, but what stole our hearts were the candid, in-the-moment captures: friends tearing up the dance floor, champagne toasts mid-laugh, family members just having a good time every second of joy preserved forever. And then there’s Luke, the videographer – wow. The highlight film he delivered is straight out of a Hollywood romance. The editing, the music, the pacing… it’s an emotional roller-coaster that replays the entire day in under ten minutes. I’ve watched it on repeat and cry every single time. Turnaround wasn’t instant, but every second of the wait was worth it. The quality, care, and artistry shine through in every photo and frame of video. Te Dua Weddings Photography isn’t just a vendor – they’re memory-makers. If you want to relive your day with tears of happiness for years to come, book them. 10/10, no hesitation, highly recommend!

Memo really came to the rescue when we had originally booked with a studio that flaked two days prior to the wedding. Memo was extremely patient and understanding of our situation and offered us a very generous and flexible rate to accommodate us with such short notice. He maintained a positive attitude during the whole event even when the circumstances were not ideal. Memo is very professional and friendly, you can tell he is passionate about his work. We were so happy with our photos, I would definitely book him again for an anniversary shoot or a family shoot. Thanks again, Memo. :)

  • Serves Lotus, CA

Hey, I'm so glad you're here! My name is Heather and I live in beautiful Foresthill, CA. I love any and all hard seltzers, my Great Dane Fritz, and using my camera to capture all the feels. About my business? Well I'm basically a professional wedding crasher, so you know you will always have fun with me! Oh and I've pretty much cried at every wedding I've ever been to...and yours is no exception. Let's be friends!

Heather was wonderful to work with! We are the awkward type in front of a camera, but working with Heather made everything seem so stress-free during our wedding planning and photo sessions. Our engagement photo session was fun and care-free and we unbeknownst to all of us, she actually ended up taking beautiful photos of our beautiful rabbit, Trixie before she passed on the following month. Something that we truly appreciated and will never forget. For our wedding, Heather was very detailed and gave us a run down of what to expect for the photos. Nothing was hidden and she was up front about it all and asked if we wanted to add anything as well. Although Mother Nature had other plans for the day, we were still able to get the majority of our photos done. She even snuck in polaroid photos that were just too adorable - And I have no idea when she even took them! We received our wedding photos back and everyone absolutely loves them. I just love her style. While there are some photographers who do a large amount of filter/presets (no shade to those who do), there's just something about Heather's style of being able to keep it clean and natural that I just love! With Mother Nature having other plans with making it a misty ceremony and a downpour reception, we did miss out on doing a handful of photos of cocktail hour. Because of that, Heather was quick to offer us a bridal session to take some additional photos to complete our wedding. Instead of returning to the venue, we actually decided to relocate to Fort Bragg and take photos at the Mendocino Garden. The photos turned out absolutely gorgeous with the oceanic background and the dahlias that she chose to work with. She made everything seem so light-hearted and there was so much laughter with each session. Thank you Heather for everything you did throughout our wedding planning and so much more. You've captured so many wonderful moments and we couldn't have asked for a better photographer!

Kait was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding! From our very first email exchange, Kait made me feel so special and supported! Her communication, in general, is prompt, upbeat and incredibly helpful as you plan. Her enthusiasm and excitement for our special day was infectious and she made the planning process so much more joyful. Kait made me feel like she was a close friend who I could lean on without ever having met her! On the wedding day itself, her calm and flexible approach helped us feel at ease, and the resulting photos are simply beautiful, with great angles and lighting that made me feel beautiful and a camera shy groom shine. She got us sneak peaks that we LOVED and poured over with in less than 12 hours!

  • Serves Lotus, CA

I’ve had a camera in my hand since I can remember. On family vacations each of us had a camera and would come back with several rolls of film. It was great to see different perspectives of the same place. My photos became more refined throughout my childhood as I graduated to my stepdad’s Minolta film SLR. In college I dedicated myself to photography professionally with a degree in photojournalism, then found my calling with a wedding studio at 19.

Awarded Best of Zola
A little over one year ago, my partner and I needed to get married so that we could be together across the closed Canadian border. We had two weeks to plan a wedding, and put everything together. I reached out to a couple different photographers and Nicky at Nemus Photography was recommended to me. She absolutely passed the vibe check in our impromptu early morning wedding and was so kind, and chill. Such a great person to work with and I'm really happy with how the photos turned out. We booked a very short session with just the ceremony and some couples photos after. She made our hastily put together wedding look absolutely stunning. I'm so happy with everything. Thank you so much.

I have always had a passion for photography and once I picked up a camera, it was all over. I was raised from a big family and my kids are my world! Born and raised in the Bay Area, I have a special love for being back there. I consider myself very outgoing and will always try and make you laugh and feel comfortable by being a huge dork. I think that is one of the biggest compliments I get is that my clients always feel relaxed and at ease and I love hearing that. Not to mention becoming friends with my clients which is an added bonus! ​

Hiring Jeff Hall as our wedding photographer was one of the first wedding decisions we made, and from there on out I knew everything was going to be fantastic. When meeting him for engagement photos, we all instantly hit it off and I knew he'd easy and FUN to work with. He's a photographer willing to go over and beyond to get THE perfect shot (wade through water, climb trees, shuffle through snow, lay in dirt. All of it.) The one thing I wanted at the end of the day was fantastic photos to look back on and hang in our home, and we received better photos than I ever dreamed of (and fast!). In fact, I loved him and the photos so much, I'm just counting down to when I can drag him to other countries for anniversary trips photoshoots! I'd recommend Jeff in a heartbeat to any couple!

Throughout the wedding day, she is silently present capturing moments on camera, allowing these to organically occur, and not be forced.

Hello there, I'm Mariea (sounds like Maria). I'm thrilled that you want to know more about me! I would love to meet you both, but in the mean time: Kurt and I (husband and wife team along with two other associate photographers) have been photographing weddings for well over ten years now and ABSOLUTELY love our job and clients. Our shooting style is quietly unobtrusive but we also know how to wrangle a rowdy bunch :)

Mariea has a great eye for detail and is always ready to get those great candids in that you didn't expect. No picture is the same. She is very organized, provides you with a very detailed timeline and makes sure that you get the most and best pictures. She truly cares!

A business designed to tell your story. Our goal is to adapt to your special moment (engagement, wedding, civil union), and make sure to photograph it uniquely and beautifully. Live your special day, we'll capture the rest!

We hired Sofia Miyake Photo for our wedding and couldn't be happier with our choice. From our first conversation, Sofia was straightforward and easy to talk to, which made the whole process stress-free. When our wedding coordinator fell short, Sofia stepped in and helped keep our day on track—she went way beyond just taking photos. Her work is unbelievable pieces of art that capture every emotion and detail we wanted to remember. We still look at our photos and are amazed by how beautiful they are. If you want a great photographer, we highly recommend Sofia without hesitation.

I’m a Northern California wedding and portrait photographer with a deep love for people, connection, and honest moments. I come to photography with a background in emergency medicine and biology, which shaped my calm, attentive approach. I photograph weddings with a relaxed, thoughtful style—guiding when needed, stepping back when it matters most, and creating space for genuine moments to unfold. My goal is for you to feel comfortable, cared for, and fully present while I document your day in a way that feels true to you.

It was a pleasure to work with Mike. He made us feel very comfortable and at ease with his style of photography, and his overall demeanor. The finished photos look even better than we imagined and we would highly recommend Mike for any photography needs you may have big or small
