Little Green Eyes 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Nevada City, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,450

If you’ve landed here, my guess is you want the perfect balance. Someone who will give you direction during your couple’s portraits, while avoiding making you feel like you’re on the MET gala red carpet during your ceremony. I’m here to help you feel at ease, to make jokes, to reassure you everything and nothing matters all in the same breath. I take years of stealthy concert photography skills and apply that to documenting the candid familial embrace. The wild shirtless last dance of the evening. The moment when you two look at each other after all the speeches are done, and you realize how wonderful it is to be showered with so much love.

Jess was an absolute dream to work with. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease, which honestly made such a difference on a day that can be a little overwhelming. Her eye for capturing the real, beautiful moments—both big and small—is just incredible. Looking through our photos feels like reliving the whole day in the best way. She’s warm, grounded, and so talented. I can’t recommend her enough.

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!

You can't go wrong with Heather. She and her team handled our engagement photos and shot our wedding. Both sets of pictures are incredible! She captured amazing moments of our wedding--and they match our memories perfectly. Heather's photos are stunning, but also feel authentic. Beyond her photography and editing abilities, she made us feel very comfortable. My wife and I aren't used to professional photoshoots (we are humble folk), so having someone so kind and down-to-earth made those experiences fun. Heather felt like someone we'd want to have at our wedding anyway! Hire her, have fun, and frame those prints.

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.

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.

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.

Nicky Byrnes Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. From the moment we connected with Nicky, her communication style was open, easy, and she was quick to respond to all of our questions. Her work is genuine, memorable, and absolutely beautiful. We first met Nicky while we were travel nursing in Tahoe, where she took our engagement photos. We were so impressed with her talent that we knew we had to have her capture our wedding day as well. On the big day, Nicky truly went above and beyond, traveling all the way to Alabama to photograph our celebration. Her work was phenomenal - she really captured the energy and joy of the party.

I could not recommend Mindy more! She was absolutely fantastic to work with and was extremely thoughtful and helpful with the entire experience. I used Mindy to capture two events, a proposal and and a surprise engagement party. For the proposal, Mindy spend a lot of time with me thinking through the right proposal spot at the location I was looking at to make sure that it worked for the photos, she even got there early to make sure that it worked. She was so well hidden to capture the proposal that for a moment I wasn't sure she was there, but she was and captured it and spent time with us after to take photos. We just got the sneak peak of the photos and they look fantastic. For the surprise party Mindy got there early and started to capture moments even before my fiancee and I arrived, she was really flexible on what worked best for the event so we can't wait to see the final photos!

You know that friend who always gets your good angles? Brings her digital camera to every event, and when it's photo time she'll fix your hair, tuck in the tag that's sticking out, move your arm just so, then pull out a flash you didn't even know she had for better lighting. That's me. I'll get shot that'll make you fall in love with you again.

Working with Ela for our Save the Date session was a wonderful experience from start to finish. She has an incredible eye for detail and guided me and my fiancé through poses in a way that felt entirely natural and effortless. Not only is the final gallery breathtaking, but Ela was professional, warm, and exceptionally talented throughout the shoot.

I capture your wedding with energy, intention, and an eye for moments that matter most. My couples get more than beautiful photos – they get someone who keeps things organized, brings a fun and calming presence, and makes everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. The result is timeless images that feel as genuine as your love story.

As a wedding planner, I work with a lot of photographers, and Quentin is one of the easiest vendors to have on a wedding day. He keeps the timeline moving without making anyone feel rushed, communicates well with the entire vendor team, and has an incredible ability to keep couples relaxed. His photos are beautiful, but what really sets him apart is his professionalism and calm presence. I always breathe a little easier when I see he’s on my timeline.

I am really interested in other people. I like to find out about you. I believe we all have value, and everybody deserves to be happy. Sour Pusses are quite the bummer, and seriousness is overrated. I really believe there should be very little reason for people to not get along. EVERYONE is welcome. I LOVE nostalgia, and having my work appreciated enough to be on your walls is the best feeling. I roast my own coffee, I am a friek for Legos, old black and white movies, the ocean, the forest, the jungle, and chatting with people.

It was serendipitous that I came across Daniel's instagram randomly in the early stages of wedding planning, and the most recent photos happened to be from the venue we'd chosen so it was clear he knew the venue and that his pictures were magical. Our wedding planners were thrilled that we had found him as they have all worked together and have a great working relationship. Daniel is exuberant and brings such authentic enthusiasm to his work. He was super helpful in the day of planning, and on the day managed our timeline with great efficiency and professionalism. All of our guests were highly impressed at his commitment to getting every shot both posed and candid of us, our families, and portraits of our guests. My husband's most important moment to capture was sunset and our sunset photos are beyond stunning. We had a really positive experience working with Daniel as a person and photographer and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to capture a wedding or any special event.

We hired Lisa Richmond to photograph our wedding. She took beautiful photos (in a not ideal light situation) and really captured the spirit of the event. She is a gifted photographer with a keen eye for composition and character. She really got herself into the middle of all that was happening while at the same time was unobtrusive and respectful of the guests and the event. Such an amazing combination of skills. Lisa is also a joy to work with. She has a curious mind and that curiosity draws her into her subjects and creates beautiful work. I highly recommend her.
