Toby has done my daughter’s newborn photos and other Christmas time photos of our family. He always makes us feel so comfortable. Recently he did our family photos again and we tried a new venue - the beach. The outcome brought me to tears! I was so impressed with his ability to get our daughter’s personality and to capture the moments of love between us. It is truly endearing and memories we will cherish for a lifetime.

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!!!

Not only is Jesse so talented, he is also so kind and caring. Taking pictures can be so uncomfortable and he really put our nerves at ease and directed us in a way that resulted in epic photos. I would 100% recommend him. We also added on video services and I’m so glad we did. I cried within thirty seconds of watching the highlight video he made. It was so well done and something I will cherish forever. He also guided us on the timeline for our wedding so we would have the best lighting and that was really important as we had the time of sunset wrong and we had booked the ceremony at the wrong time. Because of Jesse’s expertise we were able to adjust everything in time before we sent out the invitations.

Our goal for your wedding day is simple: to capture all the genuine, heartfelt moments between you and your loved ones. At the same time, I’ll gently guide you to create stunning scenes where the light, scenery, and you shine perfectly. Capturing your guests’ experiences is the other half of the equation—almost as important as the two of you. When you look back at your gallery, you’ll relive all the amazing moments you might have missed. I’m all about creating timeless photos that will grace your parents’ mantel for the next 40 years. I want to help you preserve those memories and ensure they’re never forgotten.

Awarded Best of Zola
From our first conversation with Adam Levinstein Photography, we knew we had found the right fit (we were also referred to Adam by a friend)! He listened closely to what we wanted and responded to every question quickly and thoughtfully, which made planning feel easy and stress-free. During our engagement shoot and on the day of our wedding, Adam and his team went above and beyond—he helped my husband feel comfortable in front of the camera despite being shy about photoshoots, and he helped recommend the perfect location for our bridal party photos when we weren't sure where to go. Their work is truly professional yet fun and adventurous, capturing moments that feel authentic and special. The team was super accommodating in helping us capture everything about our wedding that we wanted, from the shot list to also capturing memories in the moment. The cherry on the top was having polaroid prints of photos that were taken THAT day were printed and placed in our sweethearts' table floral arrangements as a surprise and delight! We were blown away with the sneak peeks that arrived on Monday after our Friday evening wedding—the photos were absolutely beautiful and we can't wait to see the rest. Adam and his team made our wedding day better in so many ways, and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for a photographer who genuinely cares.

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 :)

Starting my photography as a hobby in 2014 and becoming professional in 2017, my journey has taken me across the United States and around the world, where I've had the privilege of serving more than 200 couples on their special day. My approach to photography stands apart from traditional documentary styles. I focus on the natural colors and rich content of each moment, striving to highlight real-time emotions through thoughtful lighting and composition. My goal is to celebrate the unique narrative of every couple by capturing their happiness and love story with a distinct light-and-airy perspective.

Awarded Best of Zola
WOW!! Steven Nguyen Photography was one of the BEST INVESTMENT for out wedding. We're so glad we chose Steven and his team, they delivered everything on time and it was not hard to immediately say "YES" after our consultation call. Steven is simply an honest & nice guy, which was what stood out most during our zoom call. Besides his work, my husband and I felt we connected well with him and the trust was evident, since day one. Steven was always responsive and courteous in all of our communication. I reserved my date with Steven about a year in advance to ensure that he locks in that date with us before someone else does (reserving a GOOD wedding photographer in Southern California can be competitive). I love how all of our interaction/communication were more than just a transaction. My husband and I love working with Steven and we felt like we could totally hangout with him and his wife (Connie). We didn't meet Connie until our wedding day and let me tell y'all...she is a whole different vibe (in a good way). I'm so glad she accompanied Steven, she was fun to be around, so down to earth, and awesome to be around. She brings this burst of energy and fun to the wedding team. Steven's artistic work made it look like it was a million dollar wedding (I don't know how, but he did it). We literally couldn't stop smiling and giggling at all the candid moments, he captured it all. With a wedding part size of 250....it's hard to keep track of who showed up that day, but he got everyone. To simply summarize, we are IN LOVE with our photos. Steven's work evokes a sense of elegance, filled with candid emotions that tell a story between two people in the most honest and organic way. Reserve your special day with Steven to ensure that your gallery will be delivered beyond your expectations.

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.

I’ve worked with Cassie to capture my engagement, wedding & maternity shoots and I wouldn’t have it any other way. From her professionalism to her creativity to the beautiful photography she delivers, Cassie is such a dream to work with. She goes out of her way to scout the perfect location for the shoot & really puts my husband & I at ease (we’re super awkward when it comes to having our photos taken). I cannot recommend her enough!

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!

Hannah is the kind of photographer who genuinely gets excited about your vision and makes you feel supported from day one—her proactive communication and enthusiasm set the tone for an incredible experience. She captured exactly what we were hoping for with our non-traditional celebration, creating authentic moments that felt effortless rather than forced, and she was flexible enough to adjust our day-of schedule to ensure we got the shots that mattered. What really impressed us was the editorial quality of her work; she delivered a remarkable variety of images that told our story in a way that felt both creative and uniquely ours. Our guests loved interacting with her during the party, which speaks to how she brings energy and approachability to every interaction. The opportunity to collaborate creatively with Hannah made the entire process feel like a partnership rather than a transaction. We're 10/10 recommending her to any couples who want photography that goes beyond standard coverage.

  • Classic style

I’m Julita, the photographer behind Photo JAM. The name comes from my initials, but it has also grown into the meaning behind my work: Just Authentic Moments — the heart of every image I create. Originally from Poland, I bring a blend of European artistry and modern, relaxed California style into each session. I'm a lover of art, music, coffee, and travel. Photo JAM is a space where you can feel comfortable, seen, and celebrated. Whether it’s a creative portrait, an engagement or wedding I focus on making the experience easy, fun, and natural. I’m passionate about making real connections with people and helping them to express who they are.

Julita's service did a family photo session for me. I'm very happy with her work. She's very open and specific in the arrangements she presents. She's cheerful and very patient. She had 7 of us adults and 1 small child (4 months old) to take care of. I was satisfied with her work and we captured some beautiful moments.

Ovation(Lite) Photography & Design was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. Their communication style was easy-going and energetic, and they were incredibly fast at responding to any questions we had. The quality of their work was exceptional - the pictures were clean, very candid and elegant, truly capturing the love between my husband and I. They made our vision come to life, ensuring they included everything we wanted and bringing all the special memories of our day back to life through their beautiful photos. I especially loved how the photographer would gently redirect us to get the perfect shots, like when she captured us laughing and eating our tacos. Their dedication to their craft was evident in the way they meticulously documented every detail of our wedding. We are thrilled with the final results and highly recommend Ovation(Lite) Photography & Design to any couple looking for an amazing photography experience on their big day.
