Your wedding is about the two of you together, along with your family and friends, and the celebration of love. My main goal on your wedding day is to help ensure that you always remember the day — by capturing amazing photos and also that amazing feeling of being young and in love.

Highly recommend booking Ashley for your engagement or wedding photos. I booked her for both and am super pleased with my results. Have my engagement photos and wedding framed all around my house :) I was looking for a bright, airy vibe for my photos and that is exactly what I got. During the wedding planning process and day she was very organized and efficient. I still look at my wedding photos and cry because they're so beautiful! Probably will book her again for our next chapter in life- Maternity

Your wedding album transcends time as a cherished heirloom, destined to be passed down through generations. Each detail of your special day merits an exquisite capture, narrating your unique love story with grace and authenticity. Our approach ensures that your wedding remains a celebration of love and not merely a production set for photography, preserving the essence of your day in a luxurious and timeless manner.

I don’t even know where to start, I can’t remember how I came across Kaitlin’s business but I’m so glad I did. She couldn’t have been sweeter. I was on a tight budget and after I received her pricing (which was very fair) I let her know it was out of my budget and she immediately offered to work within my budget and talk through what we could do. I also had my heart set on a videographer and she brought in her friend Nicole, they made the best team and worked so well together. They even offered to meet me for coffee and see the first look spot so I’d feel more comfortable the day of. Fast forward to the important part, Kaitlin is calm, professional, and truly wants the best for what you want during your special day. She does not pressure you to get a shot that doesn’t make you feel comfortable because she wants you to remember the parts of the day most important to you. We received sneak peek photos within 24 hours which was so impressive and they were beautiful, it had me counting down the days until the full album was done! We loved our photos and our friends and family had so many great things to say about them as well. You won’t regret hiring Kaitlin!

  • Serves Mission Viejo, CA

I’m a husband to my high school sweetheart, I’m a dad to three gorgeous little girls, and I love my city of Costa Mesa, CA. Me in a nutshell...good coffee, bacon, and whiskey are my jam. A perfect day off consists of a mountain bike ride, some tacos, and swimming in our pool with my wife and daughters. I spent over 8 years in jobs that sucked the life out of me, but now I have one that breathes life back into me. You see, photography is not my identity…but it's definitely an extension of how I was created to see life. And I got into capturing meaningful moments because I am all about the life behind the moment, not just the event.

Awarded Best of Zola
Steve did our engagement photos, family photos, tea ceremony photos, and wedding photos for us. He makes you feel instantly comfortable in front of the camera and the photo results show it. He is not only kind and engaging but take absolutely stunning photos. We hope to use Steve again in the future!!

These candid photos will live in your memories. In a time where moments are fleeting, our goal is to go beyond just a “photo”, but the story and emotion behind each frame. Documenting belly laugh, kiss and small glance is a story waiting to be told.

Bridgette was an amazing wedding photographer! Working with her from start to finish was amazing. We loved our engagement pictures with her and our wedding pictures were absolutely perfect! Working with her leading up to the big day really put us at ease and she was very organized in making sure all the pictures went smooth and were so fun.

Oleg and his team are THE MOST talented video/photo team I have every met and worked with.

We chose to do our engagement shoot at The Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles. Oleg was on time and made the experience so much fun. I am very camera shy but he made us both feel very comfortable and captured candid moments of us purely having fun. On our wedding day, Oleg and his team arrived and conquered it all! They were a joy to work with and soooo organized. They created a 1-min movie-quality video for us the next day and returned some photos as a sneak-peek.

Hailing from New Orleans, LA, and now based out of South Orange County, CA, I fell in love with photography long ago. I officially launched my wedding & elopement photography business in 2021. After graduating in the middle of a worldwide pandemic, I found myself having the time to further fall in love with photography, getting the chance to photograph more and more - so much so that I was able to start my own business in a rather unexpected way. Now able to travel the world with my camera in tow, I am beyond grateful for this passion turned career, & I feel so blessed every time my finger presses down on my camera shutter.

Cassidy is the best! I'm a videographer so I always look forward to any wedding that I get to work with Cassidy. She's professional, fun, and so easy to work with.

My parents don’t have professional photos of their wedding. It’s ironic being that I photograph weddings for a living. Long story short, my Grandfather hired a distant cousin as their wedding photographer, his customer service was beyond subpar and pricing was vague. He eventually went out of business and apparently took the photos down with him. It’s a sad story but it is something that fuels my mission as a wedding photographer. To give my clients a memorable experience from the first Zoom meeting to the delivery of their gallery and beyond.

Nick is such a fabulous photographer -- he captured every big and little moment of our special day. He put us at ease and made us feel comfortable on a nerve-wreaking and exciting day. The photos are some of my favorite of my entire life. He's amazing!

Thank you for stopping by my website! My name is Yuki, and I am a photographer based in Southern California. Since I was little, I've had a camera in my hands wherever I go, and it has been my passion to photograph unforgettable moments. My influence came from my father who is a semi-pro photographer and videographer in Japan, and his journalistic photography style encouraged me to anticipate the moments and capture natural impressions. The moments I capture become the past, but what inspires me is seeing people’s reactions to the photographs I take. It is my hope that these moments become timeless. Often clients tell me that having a photo can bring back the feelings and memories of that moment, which is why I launched Yukipix Photography, LLC.

A little about me… I started Hailley Howard Photography in 2011 and built it from the ground up. Using contacts I had in the fashion industry I grew my career one client and one gig at a time. The last few years have been filled with immense growth and many incredible opportunities. We are now a family-run business serving both the wedding, event and commercial photography industries. Pre-COVID I split my time between California and New York, with a lot of travel in between. With everything on standby, I am quietly working from home on the California Coast in Laguna Beach anticipating the adventures ahead. My vision as a photographer is to capture the world and the lives within giving voice to the unique tale we can all tell. Grateful is not a big enough world to encapsulate the positive feelings I have for my passion behind what I do and all the memories and moments it has afforded me.

Our approach is centered on capturing real emotions and candid moments, ensuring that every laugh, tear, and tender glance is preserved authentically. We believe in creating a relaxed environment where you can be yourselves, allowing us to document your day as it naturally unfolds.

I can’t stop looking at the photos and video, they captured every emotion perfectly. From the bride walking down the aisle to our family laughing during dinner, everything was documented beautifully. They were incredibly patient with all the kids and elderly guests, which I really appreciated. The video editing was flawless but still felt natural, not overdone. They made sure no detail was missed, even the little decorations and smiles in the crowd. I felt like I was reliving the day every time I watched it. Their professionalism was unmatched, and they somehow made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. The way they captured genuine laughter and happy tears was amazing. My friends who saw the photos said they were some of the most beautiful wedding photos they’d ever seen. I’m so grateful for the memories they’ve preserved for us.
