I started shooting photos and video in Greece, and since moving to the US, I have dedicated myself to shooting weddings, elopements and engagements. I love being able to capture the love that my couples have for each other and the unique energy each couple has. I am always down to shoot in new locations and find the best place for my shoots!

Awarded Best of Zola
First off, planning a wedding isn’t for the faint of heart. We spoke with countless photographers, and for some reason or another, it didn’t feel right. That is, until we spoke with Hayley. Her professionalism and thoroughness really put our minds at ease. I had no idea what to expect when the photo’s came in, but she exceeded our expectations ten fold. She really captured the feeling’s and emotion surrounding our wedding. In addition to the perfect photo’s, our video was superb. The videographer created a video that brought my husband and I to tears. The music was perfect, the lighting was incredible, and the editing was by far the best I’ve seen. I couldn’t have crafted a better video in my mind. Thank you so much for making our memories come to life. We highly recommend this photographer and videographer!

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.

Storytelling that's crafted with care - Timeless. Classic. true-to-life. My approach to photography is rooted in storytelling. While I absolutely love to capture the big, meaningful moments of the day, I'm equally drawn to the quiet in-between moments that often become the most treasured memories. My approach is designed to help you stay present with each other and your loved ones while I document your wedding day as it naturally unfolds. Of course, I'll provide guidance when needed, but my goal is never to pull you out of the experience—it's to preserve it.

Sarah Fischback Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the start, Sarah was professional, attentive, kind and extremely organized. My sneak peak pictures are absolutely stunning - the photos are crisp, gorgeous and capture the natural beauty of our background as well as myself and my family in a beautiful way. Sarah had a detailed timeline for my entire day and although we got a bit off track, she did her best to get us back on schedule in a warm and kind way. At no point did I feel bombarded, as Sarah has a wonderful calmness, kindness and professionalism about her that allowed me and my wedding party to truly relax and enjoy the day. Sarah captured all the big and small moments, and I am thrilled with the results. I highly recommend Sarah Fischback Photography for any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience on their wedding day. Book her and her team and you will be able to truly enjoy!

Angela Sue Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. They were precise and thoughtful in their instructions and communication, which put us at ease throughout the day. Their work is very intentional and detail-oriented - they showed up promptly and made us feel like our day was their top priority.

Hi, it's nice to meet you! I am Eszter, Wedding and Portrait Photographer, located in San Francisco Bay Area. Fueled by equal parts of hot chocolate with whipped cream and passion, I spend my days capturing images that make you stop, smile and ask time to please slow down. Life is beautiful, just like your story and your love and I can’t wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years.

Eszter was incredibly easy to work with, and when I initially reached out to ask if she was available for photos mentioning that we were doing a small and rather non-traditional wedding in the backyard, there was zero judgment. She went with the flow and put my mind at ease that she would work with whatever was in place. I spoke to a number of other photographers who had so many requirements and made it feel like they were doing you a huge favor, whereas Eszter really made us feel like she wanted to be a part of our day and capture each and every moment. Never did she try to sell us expensive add-ons outside of our budget, and she was incredibly responsive. Eszter is such a pleasure to work with, my entire family was thrilled to have her taking photos - she made us all feel at ease. And to top it off, her photos are beautiful! She captures the lighting, the expressions and candid moments, and also helps you pose naturally. I would highly recommend and hope to work with her again for future photos!

Zha Zha Photography

  • Classic style
  • Serves Palo Alto, CA

Whether you hope to celebrate your love on a tranquil shore or under a shower of glittering sparklers, my unique balance of classic portraiture with a modern photojournalistic style will transform those powerful experiences into timeless art. Together, we'll discover serenity in the chaos and genuine beauty in each moment.

Our photographer was one of the most important vendor decisions for us, and from the moment we met Zha Zha, we knew we were in the best hands!! We’re based in the Bay Area and were planning a destination wedding in Hawaii, and one thing that immediately stood out was how thoughtful and flexible she was throughout the process. She generously offered to include coverage of our SF City Hall civil ceremony in lieu of a traditional engagement shoot as part of our package, which ended up being so special with photos we will cherish forever. From the very beginning, she was incredibly easy to communicate with: responsive, organized, thoughtful, and calm in a way that immediately put us at ease. Honestly, meeting her in person made so many of my wedding nerves melt away. She has such a grounded, professional demeanor while still feeling warm and personable, which made us feel comfortable instantly. On the wedding day itself, she was AMAZING. She has such an incredible eye for light, color, composition, and candid moments — the kind of photographer who captures how a moment *felt*, not just how it looked. One of our biggest priorities was making sure our wedding didn’t feel like one long photoshoot (especially for my husband), and she absolutely nailed that balance. She guided us through portraits quickly and seamlessly, kept us on schedule all day, and somehow managed to keep me calm anytime she could tell I was starting to feel overwhelmed. She was also incredible at coordinating family photos and directing large groups efficiently — and as a huge bonus, she spoke Chinese with my extended family to help get everyone organized and comfortable, which meant so much to us. And we have to give a shoutout to her husband, Winson, who was also the BEST vibes all weekend long. Seeing the two of them together at our wedding honestly felt like the best omen for a happy, successful marriage to come — they brought such warmth, joy, and positive energy to the entire experience. By the end of the wedding day, I realized I had probably spent more time with Zha Zha than almost anyone other than my husband — and I genuinely cannot imagine our day without her. We are so grateful for her talent, calming presence, care, and energy throughout the entire process. Could not recommend her more.

We thrive in the messy, beautiful moments—your mom helping you adjust your veil, tears during your vows, wild dancing and unplanned chaos. We're here to capture it all, not because it's easy, but because it matters. We don't ask you to pose; we let you be, and we document the real love unfolding. Your wedding day is unpredictable, and that's what makes it beautiful. We show up fully prepared, stay completely present, and make sure every meaningful moment is captured with authenticity and joy.

Working with Sukanya Singh Photography was a game-changer for our wedding day. She did an amazing job with our engagement pictures, and doesn't shy away when the groom doesn't smile much. She definitely knows what needs to be captured and how. When a major storm hit during our reception, other vendors packed up and left, but Sukanya stayed put and captured those raw, unfiltered moments that turned out to be some of our favorite shots. Her patience throughout the day was evident, and she graciously adjusted our photo schedule to accommodate the weather without compromising the quality of her work. Her dedication to documenting our day, especially under challenging circumstances, set her apart. I'd recommend Sukanya to any couple looking for a photographer who shows up, both literally and figuratively.

Unmatched, epic, insanely talented artist and masterpiece! We truly cannot say enough incredible things about Julia Goldberg. From the very first email, zoom meetings, to the moment she arrived at our hotel the morning of our wedding to the very last minute eight hours later, she was the definition of professionalism, talent, and calm energy. Julia gave my husband and I our dream wedding day in every sense of the word. Her attention to detail, direction, and posing skills made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, and she somehow managed to keep everything running smoothly while still making it so fun and natural. She was an absolute ROCKSTAR the entire day, anticipating moments before they happened and capturing them so beautifully and effortlessly. When working with her, you feel as if you’ve known her your whole life. Beyond her impressive talent, Julia is just an amazing person to be around. She is personable, friendly, kind, funny, and so outgoing—it honestly felt like we had a close friend by our side all day. That kind of presence made such a difference and allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment of our wedding day. And the sneak peek photos… omg we were BEYOND blown away and I cried tears of joy and am still at a loss for words looking at them everyday! Receiving them in less than 48 hours was already impressive, but the photos themselves were beyond anything we could have imagined—stunning, romantic, emotional, and perfectly capturing the magic of our day. She is worth every penny and more! From the day I found her Instagram and website, I knew there was no other photographer I could use for our wedding. Whether you’re getting married at the iconic San Francisco City Hall, on a Safari in Africa, or under the northern lights, she has the itinerary mapped out to a T and gives you the resources to make your day absolutely seamless while always keeping you in the loop and making you feel important and valued.

Hi, I'm Jenn Petty. I'm a wedding photographer based in Monterey, California and I travel worldwide capturing all people's love stories. I believe in equality, representation, and being kind to everyone. I believe in promoting self-love, confidence, body-neutrality, and general badassery into each of my clients. You don't need to always love your body or the way you look because that's just not realistic. But you shouldn't let it hold you back from enjoying life because you're so amazing and so so much more than your weight

JeLau Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. From the very first time we spoke, the owner Jen was so helpful, direct, and kind - making the entire process leading up to the big day smooth and stress-free. On the day itself, Jen kept me feeling calm and on schedule, and made every moment fun and enjoyable.

Leave it to us and make the 2nd best decision of your life, after choosing to marry your loved one, of course :)

Awarded Best of Zola
We recently received our photos and video package from Aladdin Films and we couldn't be happier with the results. Their documentary film was extraordinary—it let us relive our wedding day in a way that felt genuine and special. The team responded quickly to all our questions and kept everything professional from start to finish, which made the planning process smooth. Towards the end of the night, we realized we never signed our marriage license. When I asked Ali if they could stay for a few extra minutes to capture those moments, they agreed without hesitation. All our photos and videos came back on time and are truly beautiful. One thing we wish is that they had been a bit more assertive when organizing our family photos as we didn't end up with every shot/ family groupings requested on our list. We do have a larger family which can also lead towards more chaos as you can imagine. Of course part of this was a timing issue as all photos with bride and groom together needed to be done within cocktail hour as we did not do a first look. Overall, Aladdin Films delivered exactly what we needed to remember our special day and we were absolutely thrilled with our choice to work with them. I would definitely recommend Ali and the team going forward.

I'm Vanessa — Bay Area born and raised, obsessed with capturing the moments that matter most. When I'm not behind the camera you'll find me testing new recipes, catching up with friends over a dirty martini, or cruising with country music turned all the way up. What I love most isn't the perfectly posed portraits — it's the in-between moments. The way your person looks at you when they think no one's watching. The grandfather wiping a tear during the first dance. I specialize in wine country weddings throughout Livermore, Napa, and Sonoma — images that feel effortless and completely yours.

We are so happy we had the opportunity to have Vanessa capture our special day! The quality of her work is exceptional, with beautiful colors and candid moments filled with love. Vanessa constantly checked in to make sure we got the shots we wanted, and went above and beyond to focus on capturing the special interactions between our family and friends. We couldn't be happier with the final photos - they truly helped make our special day even more memorable.
