Jeff Isaac Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $450
  • Serves Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

I am a father of two beautiful young kids. I do Weddings/engagements/family because they are fun to me. I don't book myself full because I don't want to lose the magic of capturing someones day, that they spend ages planning. I work with a small trusted team that together has a lot of years experience. I work every shoot to capture the emotion in which you actually felt in the moment. No Ai was used in the creation of this explanation ;)

From our first conversation with Jeff Isaac, we knew we had found the right photographer for our wedding. His communication was straightforward and professional, making the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. Jeff went out of his way to accommodate us at every turn, and his work captures the moments that matter most—the memories we'll cherish for a lifetime. He delivered exactly what we needed and more! We're so grateful we found him, and we can't recommend Jeff Isaac Photography enough to couples looking for a photographer who truly cares about their day!!!

I don’t even know where to begin—ConneryFilm exceeded every expectation we had. From the first email to the final delivery of our wedding photos, everything was handled with so much care, professionalism, and heart. Connery has an incredible gift for turning real-life moments into cinematic memories. What really impressed us was how he paid attention to the little things—a subtle look, a soft smile, a quick laugh—things we didn’t even realize he had caught until we saw the final photos. And let me just say, the editing was flawless. The tones, the lighting, the composition... every image looked like it belonged in a magazine. Beyond the artistry, Connery was just amazing to work with—friendly, responsive, and calm under pressure. He made us feel comfortable and at ease and somehow made the whole experience feel effortless. If you’re lucky enough to book him, do it. You’re not just hiring a photographer—you’re investing in memories that will bring tears to your eyes for years to come. ConneryFilm is truly one of a kind.

Intertwine Films is a photo + video team capturing weddings as they actually unfold. Real moments, real energy, zero forced vibes. We focus on connection over perfection, movement over posing, and stories that feel lived-in, emotional, and timeless. If it felt big to you, it matters to us.

Bryan and his team were THE BEST! Bryan was so easy to work with and super communicative. He asked a lot of questions beforehand to make sure he captured exactly what we wanted. We are so in love with our videos, he nailed the editing! We gave a few directions on the vibe we wanted for the video, and Bryan not only completely nailed what we wanted but he honestly exceeded our expectations! Our videos are something we will go back and watch over the years, so it’s a job we wanted to pick carefully and we are beyond happy that we chose Bryan. He also made me (the bride) feel comfortable on the day of the wedding and kept it low stress! Thank you Bryan :)

I have always loved story-telling. I loved writing stories as a kid (I even tried to get a book published at age 12) and I love writing my own D&D campaigns now. Through storytelling, I see the paths laid ahead for our heroes, and beautiful adventures that need to be documented. Through storytelling, I started to see the pictures. And from these pictures, I began to photograph. I am crazy passionate about your day. I want to help you capture those moments. I want you to have the most amazing time, and the happiest memories. I want you to have photos so good that you can’t wait to show it off to the people you know, and even those you don’t.

We did our maternity and holiday family picture with Cassy, and our family love it! I have a golden retriever and a 3-year old toddler so you can imagine how chaotic it can be to take a good family picture with two goofy balls. Cassy is amazing! She has this special magic to make the photo session a fun game for them and capture the precious moments for the family (the interaction, the laugh and etc.). She is patient with all our requests (e.g. different combination of family members) and she is good at guiding us for poses that looks natural but aesthetic. The whole session was like a fun activity and the whole family enjoyed it. We got our picture in about a week ( it's just like a blink considering it is holiday season!) and everyone loves it - the photo gallery is super easy to access and share with family members. Perfect if you want to do a digital holiday cards :) I'd highly recommend Cassy to capture the precious moments for every special occasion.

My love for photography began as young as 12 but the passion came as soon as I welcomed my first son, Liam. Motherhood is a busy busy life and the camera keeps all the memories fresh. I love, love.

I really try to get to know my clients and visualize their lives before I even attempt to capture their story - because that story is what MAKES the shot!

Hi I’m Abby! been told all my life that I have an artistic flair and a gift for creativity, but that’s not the only reason why I started my career in wedding photography. I’m the biggest romantic and feel things deeply — in my photography there’s no detail in your connection that goes unnoticed. The little winks and smirks that silently set your soul on fire, the quirks that stay hidden to everybody else but you, and the parts of them that somehow make you fall in love with them even more… They’re how I tell stories because I know that in time, those are the things you’ll cherish the most.

Abby made our day unforgettable. She had this ease about her that calmed me throughout the day. Anything I wanted to make sure we included she made it happen - even the smallest detail that I had forgotten about she remembered. She drove me up a mountain for first look photos. That right there is dedication. Not only was she supportive as a professional, it was great to have her there as a friend. I would recommend this amazing photographer to anyone. The quality of her work shows through her photos and her work ethic. She had sneak peak photos emailed to me the literal next day. Abby is an absolute wonder, and I will forever be grateful she was there to capture the most perfect moments of the most beautiful day. Thank you, Abby!

Words cannot express how lovely and amazing experience I had working with Annie. My husband and I first met her and her second Madeleine when we did our engagement shoot and I just knew we made the right choice. And leading up to the wedding the communication was incredible. On the day of the wedding I wholeheartedly knew that Annie and Madeleine were going to capture the day so beautifully and her photos are such a beautiful reminder of the love and joy felt that day. I just know that whenever another special occasion comes up I would love to have her photograph it.

We had an amazing experience working with Jenny Chou Photography from start to finish. Jenny was easy to talk to and kept us in the loop throughout the whole process, which made planning so much smoother. On our wedding day, she showed up on time and directed us beautifully so we could feel comfortable in front of the camera. She captured every important moment without us having to worry about anything. The photos turned out absolutely stunning and we couldn't be happier with how they came out. If you're looking for a photographer, we highly recommend Jenny and her work.

I wish I’d spoke up on being self conscious about my butt, and I didn’t so I have some pictures I probably won’t be sharing, but the pictures we have are pretty, she got everything I wanted during our ceremony, I just wish I had gotten some pictures with my bridesmaids and me in my wedding dress. The ball got dropped on that. Other than that I’m happy with my ceremony pictures, and some of the pictures where I’m facing away from the camera I’m not a huge fan of. My husband loves them though, so that’s good. There was some miscommunication on editing and what not, but over all we got some really good photos.
