My style is mix of photojournalist, traditional, and an ever evolving creativity for your bridal portraits, to produce images that are beautiful, timeless, and artistic.

Dean MacKay Photography has been such a joy to work with! Our wedding was back in May 2024, and with a reception do-over happening very soon (due to illness-driven reasons), we are looking forward to working with him again! Dean's communication is timely, professional, and always makes sure his clients' requests are completed (reasonably). Dean puts all of his energy in making sure magical moments are captured along with getting moments that are timeless and elegant. He was absolutely phenomenal to have as our wedding photographer and even got photos of things we don't remember happening! In making sure our special day is everything we could imagine, it was super sweet to meet and discuss locations, ideal shots, and more leading up to the big day (which made the wedding day a bit less stressful). Dean is also very reasonable for travel! If you are looking for someone to make your day feel special and candid, he is your guy!

I am a traveling documentary wedding film photographer. For me, taking photos has always been a way to not only express myself but to connect with the people around me. Documenting life and love has become second nature to me over the last 6 years as a wedding photographer.

Dominic was hands down our favorite vendor for our wedding!! I knew from our first conversation that he was the photographer we wanted. Truly an artist paying attention to each detail from the textures for the photos to the genuine emotions of those he's photographing. So insanely incredible to work with. Personable, responsive, attentive, and just a great person overall. Dominic was able to capture so many meaningful and fun moments during our day. I love his use of film. You can tell he's passionate about what he does. His style and texture make the wedding photos more than just capturing the day, it's truly artwork I proudly display in my home. Yes, we printed every. single. picture. Hire this man.

Lauren Alexa Photography, LLC

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Morongo Valley, CA

Lauren Gdowski (she/her/hers) is a bright and true-to-life wedding photographer for the couples who want a worry-free day! After months of rigorous planning, you'll finally be able to sit back, relax, and enjoy your wedding day. The culmination of your hard work doesn't last long, so taking in those fleeting moments should be your top priority. That's where I come in... I'll guide you through a stress-free day, capturing fleeting moments so you get to relive them time and time again.

Lauren was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding! From the initial zoom call to the post wedding follow up she has been nothing but professional, warm, communicative and a delight to work with. My wife and I planned our wedding ourselves and did not have a day of coordinator and Lauren did an incredible job executing our shot list, keeping us on time and was flexible with some last minute ideas. She was incredibly detailed in the lead up to the wedding and we felt confident that we were all on the same page for the day of timeline. We received so many compliments from our wedding party and guests who all loved her professional approach and the way she coached everyone through their poses so they could look their best. As an lgbtq and somewhat PDA shy couple we felt really comfortable with her and the way she hyped us up during our individual and couples portraits allowed us to get some intimate pictures that are so special. If you are looking for great quality photos and an amazing customer service experience you have found the right person!

Pawel and I have know each other for more years than either one of us care to admit. We met the old fashion way, in a bar and have been married for 10 amazing years. In fact it’s really hard to try and remember a time when we weren’t a part of each other’s lives and that makes my heart happy. We enjoy bad movies, old sci-fi from the 50’s, kung-fu movies from the 70’s and terrible 80’s VHS movies. When we aren’t photographing awesome couples you can find us wandering around the desert or heading to Las Vegas. We truly enjoy being in each other’s company.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jenn and Pawel Photography were the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the moment we booked them, their communication was easy, friendly and professional. They felt like part of the family, working seamlessly with everyone to capture all the special moments. Jenn and Pawel have an amazing artistic eye, turning every setting into a work of art. They brought wonderful ideas, were never bossy, and just got the job done with enthusiasm. We couldn't be happier with the incredible photos that beautifully preserve the joy of our wedding day. Hands down, Jenn and Pawel are the best photographer team around!

Wild Irish Rose Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Morongo Valley, CA

I run on shenanigans, sassiness, and an obscene amount of coffee. And I grew up in the mountains so that makes me a wildflower at heart and a mountain girl through and through. When we meet be prepared for me to crack jokes, laugh loudly, gesture wildly, and run full sprint towards something I think is pretty (while trying not to die). I believe in embracing life with a whole lot of weirdness, far too much smart-aleck humor, and every single ounce of fierce passion, obsessive gratitude, profound inspiration, and reckless joy that I can forcefully wring out of this adventure called life. So that's me.

From the moment my husband and I first reached out to Wild Irish Rose Photography, we were impressed by her quick, friendly, and attentive communication style. On the day of our wedding, the photographer was extremely nice and made us feel extra special. The photos she captured were bright, lively, and absolutely beautiful - I'm in awe at the quality of her work. The pictures came out amazing, and we cannot recommend Kristen enough.

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!

We believe wedding photography should feel like hanging out with friends who just happen to have cameras. We’re here to document the real stuff: the belly laughs, the happy tears, the in-between moments that matter just as much as the big ones. No stiff poses. No forced smiles. Just you, your people, and all the magic that unfolds when you’re fully present on your day. We offer soft direction just to help you feel comfortable in front of the camera.

We had pictures taken when our daughter was 2 months old and our son was 5 years old. They were so good and patient with the kids. At one point, I had to stop and nurse my baby and they were so flexible. They even took a few pictures of my husband and son making the most of the time while everyone waited. Now we enjoy getting to look back at those pictures and the sweet memories. Wyld Story captured that time in our lives perfectly!

I'm a digital and film Wedding Photographer in Los Angeles, CA. I'm trilingual and multicultural -- and it's my favorite thing about me. I will travel Southern California for your love story, from San Diego to LA, to Santa Barbara. My style is documentary and photojournalistic with a bit of an editorial and creative charm. I do not bend and sway with the trends of the current day, instead I focus on your unique wedding day to capture timeless imagery. As the moments unfold before me, I will help tell your story. I want you to look back on your images and be able to still feel the emotions within them for decades to come, truly.

Awarded Best of Zola
Fatima not only takes great photos, but she also has the best attitude of pretty much anyone I've ever met. She gets the shot and captures the sweet, normally unseen moments between couples, amongst guests, and even amongst other vendors. During our engagement shoot, we ran into some of my family, and she took the cutest pictures of my niece and nephew on the fly. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, how we interact with each other, and really captured the essence of our relationship in both the engagement and wedding photos. And the photos of our tablescapes--chef's kiss! Truly a great documentary style photographer. She went above and beyond to get the whole day on film, and honestly is just the nicest person. One of my favorite pictures from the day is from when I realized, halfway through family portraits, that I'd forgotten to take the tag off my wedding dress. Fatima grabbed a pair of gardening shears, crawled up my dress, and got the tag, and her assistant snapped a pic for posterity. We're so, so happy Fatima was our photographer, and we look forward to flipping through our wedding album for years to come. :)
