Cassia Karin Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,700
  • Serves Nipomo, CA

Started to study beauty since 1987... Discovered photography in 1999. Studied and practiced wedding photography since 2007. Studied people and relationships since 2008 (college degree in counseling). Started teaching others how to see light, beauty, color, and magical moments since 2017. "The lover is the student of the beloved"

We absolutely LOVED working with Cassia and her team! They were so calm, cool, collected and stealth...we barely knew they were there. I usually tell clients their photographer will be "all up in their business" all day, but it didn't feel that way with Cassia. She was so lovely. We've got a few more weddings booked with her and are very much looking forward to them all! She's just got a super cool vibe...and we dig it!

  • Serves Nipomo, CA

Hi there, Im Savannah! I discovered my passion for photography at 15 years old, when I first picked up my grandpa’s camera and instantly fell in love with capturing moments. When I'm not behind the lens, you’ll find me enjoying sunsets, jamming out to live music, hanging out with my dog, Paisley, or savoring some authentic Italian cuisine (though Mexican food is a close second!). I cherish the joy of transforming clients into friends and hope we can connect over some of these shared interests. Whether we’re exploring new places or just hanging out in the stunning central coast, I’m eager to bring your vision to life.

Savannah Grace Photography was the perfect wedding photographer for our special day. Her communication style was effective, respectful, and kind. She was incredibly organized, which allowed us to get through all of our wedding party, family, and solo photos quickly during cocktail hour. Savannah made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process and beautifully captured all the emotion and happiness of our wedding. The final photos were absolutely stunning - warm, professional, and exactly the vibe we were going for. Savannah listened to our preferences and helped us through posing and set up of photos so we didn’t feel awkward at all. We are thrilled with the results and couldn't have asked for a better photographer to document our wedding day.

I value your time with your loved ones, and I photograph from that framework. One of my core values is honoring family and friends, and I reflect that as part of my brand and company. We prepare beforehand, so we can move through formal photos with ease, and get you to your dance party sooner! Meaning, photos won't drag on for hours... we've all been to one of those weddings, right? That won't be yours. When you become my client, you become my people. What does that mean for you? I'm there for you, and I have your back. I want to give you gorgeous photos that show the joy of your day, without having to miss all the fun stuff.

Tayler is literally the best! Picking the right photographer was such a big decision for our wedding and we are so thankful we picked Tayler, not only did our engagement pictures come out amazing (we only took them like 8 weeks before the big day to practice) but our wedding pictures were soo awesome. We both have strong, opinionated families and she was able to manage them effectively. Everyone complimented her personality and our pictures aquickly and they were sooo beautiful we couldn’t even pick our favorites. If you need a photographer look no further pick Taylor she won’t disappoint, she is so fun to work with and you get the best shots.

Capturing moments for the people I love, in the places they love, wherever that may be. There’s nothing more invigorating than giving people the opportunity to see themselves in a way that they never have before. Creating something meaningful for others is my passion. First, it’s important we get to know each other to make sure we’re a good fit cause trust me, it matters. I'll go first.

Fives across the board! Absolutely fell in love with Gage. Everything from his unique ability to capture a moment to his great personality. He made us feel like the only couple in the world. Gage made everything come to life. The big day seemed less stressful with him and his team there catching all the moments that mattered. Deciding whom to trust with the most important day of your life is stressful enough but make it easy on yourself and go with Gage! He’s out of this world and now apart of the family!

We've known Peter for years and have always been fans of his work. My husband and I are both super uncomfortable in front of the camera—we’re not traditional, and I personally hate being posed. Honestly, I didn’t expect much… but then Peter sent us teaser photos the very next morning, and I was completely blown away. The photos looked like art. He captured us in such a natural, beautiful way. Peter’s work is truly the best, and we are forever grateful.

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!

Dreaming of vibrant, whimsical wedding photos with no travel fees? Hi, I'm Sophia! Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — candid, authentic, and joyful.

I’m Mysi (pronounced, boringly, “Missy”)! I’ve been at this thing for 12 years and I keep falling more and more in love with it all. Give me intimate micro-weddings, quirky dive bar weddings, raucous South Asian weddings... my team and I absolutely thrive in chaos and emotion. My specialty is catching the moments and those tiny moments in between. ✨✨✨

Awarded Best of Zola
We were nervous when it came to hiring a photographer, because after the whirlwind of the day, photos are one of the only things you get to keep once the day is over that help you relive the moments. We had heard so many horror stories and knew it was one of the most important decisions we were going to make. But thankfully, hiring Mysi was truly one of the BEST DECISIONS we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she was intentional, thoughtful, and so easy to work with. She made it a priority to meet with us in person—not just to talk logistics, but to get a feel for how we interact with each other. She wanted to understand our dynamic so she could best capture authentic, candid moments on the day. That personal touch meant a lot to us. She even took the time to drive up to our venue (a private residence) in advance to scout out the space. Watching her creativity come to life as she walked through the house and surrounding areas was such a fun and reassuring moment—we knew we were in great hands. We didn’t want just traditional posed photos; we wanted a mix of candid, artistic, and emotionally rich shots that told the full story of the day. She completely delivered. The final gallery was more beautiful than we could’ve imagined—natural, warm, and full of moments we didn’t even realize she had caught. We showed a few of the preview photos to people who didn't attend the wedding, and they all had nothing but compliments for how stunning the photos were. It's only been a few months, but we can't stop looking at the photos. They bring us back to the exact moment in time they were taken and we are able to relive the memories. Literally the only negative is that we can't figure out what our favorites are because they are all that great! We’re beyond grateful and couldn’t recommend Mysi more highly. If you want a photographer who truly sees you and puts her heart into every frame, she’s the one.

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 want you to look back on your images and be able to still feel the emotions within them for decades to come, truly.

From start to finish, working with Fatima was an absolute dream. After researching countless photographers online, she was my number one choice! I booked our elopement just three months in advance and was so relieved she was available. Throughout the whole process she was so incredibly kind, professional and thoughtful that, despite our short timeline, we were able to feel at ease. My (now) husband and I are both quite shy in front of the camera and were worried that we might look stiff, but Fatima was able to quell those worries and capture us exactly how we had hoped - in a very natural and organic light. All in all, Fatima went above and beyond for us in so many ways - from setting up a last minute meeting the week before to go over details (and ease my anxiety) to unexpectedly serving as our witness! She even sent us our full gallery a few weeks earlier than we had expected. We are so pleased with how everything turned out and so grateful to have worked with such a talented artist (and AMAZING human). We'll definitely be booking Fatima for our next milestones 3

I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Mae was an absolute pleasure to work with. I knew I liked her from the very first call. She was thorough and asked good questions to make sure she could capture what we wanted. I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough. I loved all the photos and the video made me cry. Mae is the type of person you want to be friends with after everything is done. Trust me, book Mae!!

From helicopter elopements and lakeside wedding bashes to hiking engagements to weddings with bouncy houses, I capture the adventurous, quirky, and unique. Based in both New York + California, with travel worldwide, I've photographed couples on 6 continents. My creative, fun, & candid photography uses innovative techniques and unique ideas to get photos that make you look twice. Whether you're saying vows in your backyard or having a 3-day adventure wedding in the rainforest, I'll catch every spontaneous moment of joy and laughter—and plan a few unique shots on top of it all.

We worked with Kathryn for our October 2024 Hindu/Jewish blended wedding and were so happy with our decision!! We spoke with MANY photographers during the planning process trying to decide who fit our style and personality leading up to our wedding. Neither of us feel super comfortable in front of the camera so it was important to us that we found someone who truly fit us and what we were looking for. Kathryn's warmth, adventurous spirit, and genuine curiosity about us as a couple really stood out, and we immediately knew she was who we wanted to work with. We had a large wedding with many Hindu/Jewish traditions making the day busy & hectic, but Kathryn's professionalism and calm attitude made us feel at ease. We really appreciated how on top of it she was, sticking to our timeline and facilitating our rather large (and rowdy!) group, all while making the staged photos seamless and the candids from the reception/baraat so special and a true representation our special day. The colors are just magnificent, and we had many guests compliment her work, fun nature, and professionalism throughout the night. Thank you Kathryn for making our day so wonderful!!

Laurie Ann Martin Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photographers. From the very first conversation, Laurie and her team were prompt, clear, and collaborative in their communication, making the planning process seamless. Their work is truly stunning, heartwarming, and exceeded all of our expectations. Laurie and her team were able to capture every special moment of our day, from the intimate exchanges to the grand celebrations. Even when the weather didn't cooperate, Laurie worked creatively to get breathtaking shots with my veil that felt like works of art. And the golden hour photos they captured were absolutely mesmerizing. We will treasure these images forever and are so grateful to have found Laurie Ann Martin Photography to document this once-in-a-lifetime occasion.
