Audey Shen Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
Palo Alto, CA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $10,500

Hi, I’m Audey, pronounced like Audrey but without the R! Inspired by heart, those closest to us, and always chasing the spirit of adventure, I believe your love story is one-of-a-kind, and the way it’s remembered should be too. My approach blends candid Photojournalism with a Fine Art approach. I aim to capture the moments that you share with your loved ones, all while capturing the beautiful surroundings that will become part of your family's visual legacy. Whether it's an intimate ceremony under the redwoods or a celebration across the world, I would love to document the beauty, joy, and quiet magic of it all.

Audey did a FANTASTIC job with both our engagement photos and our city hall wedding ceremony photos. When I got in contact with her, we chatted about any ideas I had in terms of locations and poses, but she was also incredibly helpful in prompting us to think about what we wanted out of our shoots. She's able to scout locations super quickly once at the destination and is a true pro at being able to get the shot. We took our engagement photos at Lands End and Golden Gate Park on an absolutely freezing day (another normal day in SF haha) and Audey helped us get through the shoot quickly and successfully! She directed us through all of the poses and made us feel super comfortable and relaxed with her. We were even able to squeeze in some last minute unplanned shots that actually turned out so beautiful. For SF city hall, she truly is a miracle worker because nobody had guessed that there were several other couples also milling around the rotunda based on the outstanding shots she was able to take. I had no idea it was her first time shooting SF city hall since she navigated it like a pro! Overall, I truly love Audey's photography style and her professionalism and I'm so grateful she was able to help us capture these memories. If you're looking for someone who can really bring out the best in you through photography, Audey is your gal!

I’m a Bay Area photographer drawn to honest, unscripted moments. My background in journalism shapes how I approach weddings and events — paying attention to the small details, the quiet interactions, and the in-between moments that tell the real story of a day. I aim to photograph celebrations in a way that feels natural, thoughtful and true to the people in them.

KW Photography was an absolute joy to work with . From our first interaction, Kathryn was kind, welcoming, and easy-going, making us feel comfortable and at ease. Their high-quality, crisp photography captured all the special moments, from the candid shots of us giggling during our engagement session. Kathryn has an incredible eye for detail and a true talent for bringing out the natural beauty in every photo.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband is skeptical about photos in general but he actually enjoyed the experience, which surprised me. They read the room and adapted when we wanted posed portraits, they did them quickly and beautifully; when we wanted candid, they melted into the background. The video has moments of realness that made both of us tear up like friends whispering jokes during the vows. We love the reception montages especially, the motion and color made it feel joyous. The team captured some of the late-night, in-between moments that most vendors miss. They were patient with older relatives and playful with our younger cousins. The pricing felt fair for the quality and service we received. Turnaround timing was solid and delivery was smooth via an easy gallery. We ordered prints and they arrived with lovely packaging. Sometimes I go back to the photos just to smile; they do that for me. Recommend wholeheartedly.

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Palo Alto, CA

Hello! I’m so excited for the chance to work with you. I’m a former teacher who has always had a passion for photography. I started working freelance in 2015 and did a lot of my first jobs in the music industry. I shot Warped Tour a few times and even had one of my promos featured by AP magazine. I quickly realized I loved working with couples the most, and now focus on couple and family portraits and weddings!

Awarded Best of Zola
From our very first meeting over Zoom with Thalia, I knew we’d made the right choice. Her chipper, upbeat, and lighthearted personality made us feel at ease immediately. We had the pleasure of working with Thalia for our engagement photos, our wedding, and my sister’s wedding. Each time, she was a master at combining carefully curated poses with beautifully captured candids that embodied the spirit of the event and of the couples at the center. Thalia skillfully posed us in ways that photographed beautifully and didn’t feel awkward in the moment—my husband and I were laughing and enjoying ourselves the entire time. Thalia has a true gift for composition and what initially drew me to her was the moodier vibe of the photography style. With that said, she knows when to play it up and when to tone it down and allow the natural vibrancy of the moment take center stage. In every opportunity, Thalia delivered a stunning variety of photos within her advertised timeframe. Her prices are extremely fair for the work she delivers, and my family and I immediately ordered multiple prints and albums from her very user-friendly website. I can’t recommend Thalia highly enough—if you’re looking for a photographer to take your special event to the next level and create memories to last a lifetime, you’ll be ecstatic you chose Thalia.

  • Serves Palo Alto, CA

The moments you remember most aren’t usually the ones that were planned. My approach is documentary-driven and unhurried, focused on connection, movement, and the quiet in-between moments that tend to mean the most later. I work best with couples who value presence over perfection and want images that feel honest, intimate, and timeless. Whether your day is big or small, traditional or unconventional, my goal is to create space for you to be fully yourselves — and to tell your story as it naturally unfolds.

Sharyce was amazing from the first phone call we had. Sharyce quickly became not only our photographer but a confidant and friend. She traveled from CA to WI to shoot our wedding and she was worth every single penny! Her kindness, leadership, eye for detail, creativeness and her vision brought our wedding together and we are dying to see our full wedding album!! Book her! Now!!!! Sharyce holds a level of professionalism that is unmatched, while simultaneously being a friend. As my wife and I are apart of the LGBTQ community, we would love to give her a shoutout for her love and safety towards us and our love. We will forever be grateful to Sharyce for capturing our day and building a friend in the process. Thank you for capturing every detail with so much love.

We couldn’t be happier with our decision to have Ryan photograph our San Francisco City Hall elopement. From the beginning, he was easy to communicate with, professional, and made us feel completely comfortable. Ryan gave just enough direction while still letting everything feel relaxed and genuine. One of the things we loved most was that he shot both film and digital. The digital photos are stunning, but there is something so special about the film images. They have a timeless, romantic quality that perfectly captured the feeling of the day. They’re all soo beautiful. Looking through our gallery, we’re amazed by how many moments he caught that we didn’t even realize were happening.. These are photos we’ll treasure for the rest of our lives, and we’re so grateful Ryan was part of such an important day. We would recommend him to anyone looking for beautiful, heartfelt wedding photography.

HEY! I'm Sean, a Bay Area native who is pretty darn handy with a camera. My full-time photography journey began after losing my job in Art Education and STEM due to the pandemic. That's when I decided to bet on myself to pursue my passion for photography as my primary career. What excites me most as a photographer are the opportunities to meet new people and collaborate with them to create incredible art. I think great photographs requires a strong interpersonal bond with the photographer and the subject and that's why wedding photography is especially fulfilling because it requires so much trust, confidence and relationship building.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sean has been one of the best photographers to work with. Our paths crossed for the first time this year while we worked a wedding together. The wedding was big & chaotic but Sean was extremely polite and easy to work with.He was also a real gentlemen and was very respectful regarding my time with the bride. The bridal party enjoyed his company along with the other 3 vendors we shared space with. His easy going personality was calming and his professionalism never went unnoticed. Mr Wash also went out of his way to share the gallery from that day. He made me feel very appreciated, it was an honor to be thought of even weeks after the event. I hope to work with Mr Wash again in the near future. His calm kind personality paired with his talent makes him a prime pick for any client or vendor.

My name is Trung, the head honcho at this eponymously named company. My name is pronounced “Troon”, which sounds like spoon, so ignore those other letters that make life complicated. I've been a photographer for close to 10 years, photographing things big and small, far and wide. It's pretty incredible how impactful and valuable a split second image of a given time, place, person, or object can mean to a person. Whether it's a photograph of someone you love or a place you'd love to be, photographs spark memories or inspire the pursuit of new ones and that's why I love it.

Trung went above and beyond as our wedding photographer! His photography is not only STUNNING and really captures the emotions of the moment, but he was incredibly organized, fun, and highly adept at problem solving. We wanted some shots by the ocean, but the wind made it a little difficult. Trung was calm in problem solving and his humor also helped make everything feel more relaxed. We can't express enough the difference he made in getting the shots we wanted, but also navigating everything so well! We are so happy to have gotten to work with him and highly recommend Trung!

Hi, I’m Yana — the photographer behind The Y.K. Studio. With a background in fine art and documentary photography, I bring an intentional, editorial eye to your celebration day, balancing artistic composition with raw, honest storytelling. I will gently guide you in a way that feels authentic, allowing you to interact naturally and have the most joyful photographic experience.  Based in Pacifica but available all around the Bay Area and beyond.

We cannot recommend Yana enough. We are so thrilled with the photos we received and just overall experience. Feel free to read more of the nitty gritty below, but TL;DR: we would give her way more than 5/5 stars if we could. :) The Experience: Yana was so warm, communicative, and organized from the start. She quickly replied to my request for an engagement photoshoot and had a very organized/simple process for getting started. She helped us select the right location and also gave tons of tips/guidance on picking out some outfits, as well as some fun pose ideas! We were a bit nervous going into the shoot as we didn't want it to feel super rigid/awkward with very forced/posed shots, but that couldn't be farther from our experience; it felt like we were on a fun, playful date with someone there just capturing the moments. The Photos: Insane. Stunning. We can't get over them. As a hobbyist photographer myself, I'm honestly amazed by her obvious talent and artistic vision/style. Even her gallery delivery (the order/layout/design of the delivered photos) was clearly intentional and aesthetic. There are SO. MANY. great photos that we're honestly having a hard time picking which to use for wedding materials- which is an amazing problem to have!! I truly feel like she captured our love and spirit in these.

Hi, I am Andy, a wedding and San Francisco City Hall photographer based in the Bay Area. I photograph couples who want their day to feel relaxed and unforced, while still looking polished and elegant in photos. I quietly document the real in between moments and then step in with gentle direction when you need it, so you never feel stiff or posed. From intimate City Hall ceremonies to full day weddings, I help you plan a simple timeline, find beautiful light, and make the most of every location. I personally edit each image with a clean, true to life style so your photos feel timeless and still like you many years from now.

We are so happy we chose Andy for our City Hall wedding. From the first message he was easy to talk to, clear about pricing and timing, and helped us understand how everything at City Hall works. On the day he arrived early, found great spots with good light, and gave us just enough direction so we did not feel stiff or awkward. At the same time he stayed very calm and kind, which really helped with nerves. When we received the gallery, the photos felt like us: natural, flattering, and not over edited. Our families keep saying how beautiful the pictures are. We would absolutely hire Andy again and recommend him to anyone looking for a relaxed, professional photographer.
