I absolutely LOVE what I do! I laugh and smile with you behind the lens until MY cheeks hurt! I pinch myself every day that I get to live out my passion and still have my toes in the sand while I work. On the daily I am excited to be a part of every wedding, elopement, family, maternity – it’s a snippet of time in your lives that I am honored to be part of; every single day I cannot wait to get my camera in hand! I hope your experience with me will be one to remember, and that the photos you receive back will reflect that fun we all had together that day.

I'm Bree - With over fifteen years of experience documenting love stories in Columbus, California & Hawaii as well as International when needed. I believe wedding photography should feel calm and grounding. My approach is guided, not always posed; present, not performative. I step in when needed and step back when moments deserve to breathe. Your wedding day isn’t about perfection — it’s about connection. My role is to preserve the feeling of that day so it can be experienced again for generations to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
This review is a tad late but I got married in November 2024 and booking with Bree Lea Photography was one of the best decisions I made for our wedding day. Bree's communication style is clear, welcoming, understanding, and creative. Her work is meticulous, intentional, high-quality, and priceless. Bree made sure our wedding day felt seamless and not rushed - she even traveled to different locations to photograph our wedding party hours before the ceremony. Bree had continuous communication leading up to our big day and never made us feel stressed. She even helped create our wedding day schedule when we didn't know where to start! She found herself in the city of my wedding while she was on VACATION and told me she scouted it for the best shooting areas...did I mention she was on VACATION? She went above and beyond with amazing communication, stellar photographs, and on top of that she has a kind soul and was an absolute treasure to work with. You would be lucky to book with such a talented, fun, relatable photographer for your big day! I'll def be reaching out to her again for smaller shoots in the future.

  • Serves Papaikou, HI

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
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His 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. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Together Carly and Elliot of Nomadic Love are the ultimate power team for your wedding day. As a husband and wife team feeding off one another’s strengths, they can truly maximize on so many more elements than a single person.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we reached out to A Nomadic Love, their communication was quick, detailed, and responsive. My husband and I no longer live in Dallas, TX and despite the time zone difference, Carly was always so easy to reach out to regarding any questions or concerns about our wedding day. Carly and Elliot were both extremely professional, but also so easy to work with throughout the entire process both before, during, and after our wedding day! Three months prior to our wedding, Carly and Elliot even came to our wedding venue ahead of time to test the lighting, which was a concern of mine since our venue was indoors and I was concerned about how everything would photograph, especially in regards to my bright red wedding dress. In addition, the two of them worked so effectively throughout our wedding in regard to the photos. My husband wanted to be surprised when I walked down the aisle, so the only opportunity to take couple’s portraits was after our ceremony prior to the reception along with getting photos with our family. Their attention to detail and ability to work within our time constraints ensured we got beautiful photos that perfectly captured the joy and love of our special day. We couldn't be happier with the service and quality of work from A Nomadic Love, and would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

Your wedding day is filled with once-in-a-lifetime moments: the quiet nerves, the happy tears, the laughter, and the love that brings everyone together. My passion is capturing those memories in a way that feels natural, meaningful, and true to you. If feeling awkward in front of the camera sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and that’s exactly why my approach is centered on helping you feel comfortable, confident, and fully present on your day. My goal is for you to enjoy every moment while I document your love story as it naturally unfolds. I want you to look back at your photos and not only remember how your wedding looked, but how it felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can hardly express in words my appreciation for Irina Adams as our wedding photographer. She took both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. Our engagement photos were taken in Sedona at a cute park that Irina recommended and our wedding took place at the Marley Park Heritage Club in Surprise, AZ. Her photography style is lively, bright, and timeless. Exactly what I was looking for in a photographer. I also loved the up close, detailed shots that captured our reactions to each others vows and the moments that made it all special. Even the photos at night are clear and crisp. The photos can speak for themselves, but there are many other attributes to look for in a wedding photographer. Irina helped me pick out a dress for my engagement photos that didn't clash with the Sedona scenery. She is direct in her communication, and got our family and wedding party through photos quickly to maximize time for my now-husband and me to spend with our guests. You will not regret choosing Irina as your wedding photographer, my only regret is not having her stay longer for the reception.

Nellie is a professional and friendly photographer and videographer with a true passion for her craft. Her love of film photography shines through in her photos and videos, and we are constantly blown away from both our candid and portrait photos and videos. The planning was seamless and easy, and the wedding day felt fully captured thanks to Nellie and Leah, one of her secondary photographers. I would recommend Nellie to anyone, but especially to those that want to earnestly and sincerely capture the love story that is a wedding.
