  • Serves Palo Alto, CA

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Isaac’s photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking.

  • Serves Palo Alto, CA

Hi, I'm Danny! My passion is to capture couples & their love story in a timeless way. I like to describe my style as a fusion between story-telling & editorial. I lean into true-to-life colors with a warm ambience and posing that's timeless but also interwoven with an editorial flare that's unique, artistic, and stylish. I also love incorporating story-telling stills that involve movement rather than a bunch of photos that feel "stiff" or overly posed. Story-telling moments bring wedding galleries life! I’d love the opportunity to connect with you, and hear more about your wedding vision!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Danny is the absolute GOAT. From start to finish, my entire experience working with Danny was smooth. His contract and communication is clear. Danny is so kind - my husband and I have never taken professional photos together and he was so good about directing us on what to do, how to move, stand etc. The pictures were everything we could've asked for and more. We had a big wedding party and worked with us so well. Truly, the best pictures I have ever seen. I was nervous in general because my husband and I struggle taking good pictures together and Danny made every single one of them look perfect. I also loved that we had the option to add to get the 24hr sneak peak photos. It truly had me so excited after my wedding. And also - his turn around time for all the photos was less than a month, that was so amazing! I am recommending Danny to everyone I know!! Please, if you are in between Danny and someone else, choose Danny!!
