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!

“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!”

Huria’s brings the authentic taste of mobile woodfired catering from Brooklyn to the North Bay Area. Based in Bodega Bay, we are a family-run business specializing in rustic-style weddings and rehearsal dinners. Our vintage-inspired pop-up kitchen design creates a charming focal point for your celebration, serving up artisanal pizzas and woodfired dishes that provide a one-of-a-kind, delicious experience. We focus on high-quality ingredients and a warm, communal atmosphere that turns a meal into a memorable event.

“If we could give Huria's 10 stars, we would! Adriana and Chef Mohaimen are an absolute joy to work with :) We hired Huria's as our caterer for our 90 person wedding. Since our wedding was taking place on a private residence, we had very specific criteria for a caterer and basically needed them to be self sufficient for gas, electricity, kitchen space, etc. Huria's took care of that without a problem! From the beginning, Adriana had clear and responsive communication. She answered my questions very quickly with care and knowledge. Their menu is absolutely delicious and our guests thoroughly enjoyed the carefully crafted appetizers and mains. My now husband and I originally had our reservations about wood fired pizza, fearing that the pizzas would be cold by the time guests came up to get it, but Huria's has their system down to a science. Every single guest was quickly served a hot meal and there was plenty of leftover food for second and third helpings. We also received so many compliments on the incredibly cute set up that Huria's brings to each event they cater. Their woodfired pizza oven, pop up bistro, and tables add rustic charm to any venue. Guests were blown away by the set up and it photographs beautifully! The team at Huria's is professional, warm, transparent about pricing, and provides incredible food with great service. I cannot recommend Huria's highly enough to anyone who is looking for a food caterer in the Northern California area! Thank you so much Adriana and Chef for making our wedding feel (and taste) so special, we are so grateful for you! :)”

You’re trying to see which one will capture the most beautiful photos, which one will best fit your personality, will they be able to capture those candid memories, & of course, will they fit in my budget?

“Holly has been FANTASTIC to work with for our wedding! From meeting her in person in advance of our big day to the day of to all the post wedding details, it has been a pleasure working with her! What made us love Holly so much? Her skills with a camera. The photos are absolutely beautiful and she got us posed and took photos in no time at all. It didn't feel like an exhausting chore to get all our posed photos for the wedding, it was so much fun instead! Her personality. You spend a lot of time with your wedding photographer on the big day and we love hanging out with Holly. My husband and I want to hang out with her more! Her professionalism. She was always responsive, consistent, on time... Holly went above and beyond, when we ran late on our timeline and asked her to stay an extra hour, she was able to with no questions asked.

Alicia and her team ensure your experience is as flawless as your photos. She works from the heart, pouring love and dedication into every shot, to provide you with an unparalleled wedding photography experience.

“Working alongside Alicia Parks Photography this summer was an absolute pleasure. Alicia is not only highly professional and prepared, but genuinely respectful to everyone involved in the event. That respect for fellow vendors is often overlooked, yet it plays a major role in how smoothly a wedding day unfolds. As a bride or client searching for vendors, this should honestly be a standard question to ask: How do you view and work with your peers? Most wedding professionals are meeting for the very first time on the wedding day, yet we’re expected to immediately function as a unified team. Alicia truly embodies this cooperative spirit. She approaches the day with collaboration and kindness, making communication seamless, transitions effortless, and the overall atmosphere calm and positive. That unity doesn’t stay behind the scenes—it carries through to the guests. Much like walking into a restaurant where the staff clearly enjoys working together, the experience simply feels better. I would gladly work with Alicia again and highly recommend her to couples who value not only beautiful photography, but a thoughtful, collaborative, and seamless wedding day experience.”

“I truly cannot recommend Sandra enough. From day one, she made the entire process so much easier and less stressful. I loved doing the design side of things but absolutely dreaded all the vendor communication — and she completely took that off my plate. She handled ALL of it, advocated for me using her knowledge of the wedding industry, and honestly found practically all of my vendors. On top of that, she was able to get vendor discounts, which was such a huge bonus. She was endlessly patient with me when I couldn’t make up my mind and wanted constant changes — never once made me feel annoying or difficult, just supportive and flexible every step of the way. The week of my wedding, we found out there was a high chance of rain, and I was completely overwhelmed. She immediately reached out to THREE different tent rental companies last minute, got quotes from all of them, and supported me through a lot of tears with so much kindness and reassurance. On the actual wedding day, I truly didn’t have to lift a finger. Everything ran so smoothly, and if anything went wrong, I still have absolutely no clue about it — which says everything. Even after the wedding, when I didn’t receive something I was promised from a vendor, she stepped in and helped communicate with them to make it right. Overall, she is incredibly easy to work with, easy to talk to, and so understanding. Having her on my team was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding, and I’m so grateful for everything she did to make our day happen. Highly, highly recommend!”

I'm Amy, chief picture taker, head editor, dubious web designer, and volunteer animal hugger at Amy Little Photography. Work is always fun because I'm never far from snacks and never close to snakes. Taking pretty pictures is easy. But documenting the honest, emotionally raw, and laugh-out-loud, because you didn't know that happened pictures is where I really shine. Photographing hundreds of weddings has deepened my joy of authentic storytelling. It's also been a catalyst for my cake addiction so I hope you're cool with being an enabler.

“When I was looking at photographer portfolios, what I paid attention to most was how they captured candids. Could the joy, love, and excitement of the days shine through? Literally no one could compete with Amy Little there! She has an incredible talent for capturing the sweet moments that make a wedding special. Then I talked to her, and we instantly vibed. She even made my fiance lighten up and feel comfortable -- a herculean task! On top of that, she made us look and feel stunning. She taught us two awkward penguins how to model and let our true selves show on film. I still don't know how she did it! And on the day of, she not only was solving problems like a boss, she turned her creative eye into some jawdroppingly beautiful creative pictures in the rain. She's a genius, and I couldn't be happier with how the photos turned out.”

“Dee catered my 75-person wedding at the Tiburon Landmarks Art and Garden Center and exceeded every expectation. The venue does not have a kitchen, which is obviously a challenge for any caterer - Dee set up a full mobile outdoor kitchen on-site and the food was absolutely incredible. She never skimped on quality and sourced ingredients locally. We served dinner plated style offering a white fish or short rib - both were exceptional. She was incredibly responsive throughout, and went above and beyond as a planner-caterer hybrid. She even did my florals, which were stunning. She has great taste, and she became a trusted advisor throughout my planning process. I truly couldn't have done it without her!

"I live for the moment when my customers see their incredible edibles for the very first time. Nothing brings me more joy than watching their faces light up with great big smiles. The extreme satisfaction is what gets me every time. Knowing I make dreams come true is why I love what I do."

“Christian’s cakes are delicious! A friend who was married in 2021 recommended Krumbs Cakes to us and I am so glad she did! Christian is so friendly and easy to work with, we loved our tasting and everything he makes is delicious! We went with a small 3-tiered cake in the cactus blossom flavor and a sheet cake in chocolate Kahlua. All of our guests loved the cake and I’m excited to order a mini version for our anniversary in 2024!”

Welcome. I’ve been a make-up artist, chocolatier, a barista, a pet-sitter, a bartender but I’ve always been “that girl with the camera.” (I’ve also been, “that girl who sleeps on our couch” or “that girl who’s booty I saw in the newspaper” but I digress…). Currently, I base my photography business in Petaluma, CA. I grew up in Sonoma County but in my early 20’s I picked up and moved to Manitoba and that’s where I stayed for many years. Upon my return to CA in 2013 I turned my passion for photography into a career. It’s been a journey to call photography my profession, but I’ve always been a photographer and I’ve always been an artist.

Welcome! My name is Aryk, I’m a self-taught artist who built my skills from the ground up. My experience in photojournalism and street photography combined with my love of fine art are the foundation of my style. My approach to weddings is that of a documentarian and a witness. My couples are folks who value quality and intimacy, and want their wedding day illustrated with a unique album filled with artful candids, punctuated by breathtaking fine art portraiture.

“Aryk is one of a kind. Our wedding was so beautifully captured thanks to them. As a wedding photographer myself, it was important for me to find someone that excelled not just in the technical aspects, but in the overall experience they provide their couples. Aryk always made me and Noah feel comfortable and listened to. They're sensible, communicative, professional, courteous, and always engaged. Always going with the flow, Aryk can adapt to change while still providing excellent results. We appreciated how Aryk's photography method provided us with a one-of-a-kind gallery: a blend of film and digital, all showcasing the genuine emotions I so desperately wanted captured, and in such a beautiful way. Our families and friends are STILL so in awe of the photos we came out with thanks to them. We love you Aryk!!”

As a visual storyteller, I specialize in capturing special intimate moments for my couples during the most important parts of their relationships that they will cherish a life time. I value being a celebrator, embracer, and advocate of ALL LOVE, I am here to be your personal hype girl throughout this entire process! I strive to create raw moments during our time together that will create real laughs and sweet moments to capture your love naturally to truly showcase your love as it really is. My couples really set fire to my soul and make me feel truly grateful to have the opportunity to capture such incredible moments for them

“Working with Sydney was an absolute dream. From the very beginning, they made us feel comfortable, seen, and completely at ease in front of the camera — and the photos reflect that perfectly. They didn’t just capture what our day looked like, they captured what it felt like. Every laugh, every tear, every in-between moment is frozen in time so beautifully. Her eye for detail, lighting, and composition is incredible — but what really sets her apart is how effortlessly they blend into the day. They were everywhere and nowhere all at once — never intrusive, always intentional, and somehow caught every angle and emotion. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the entire day from start to finish. We’ll cherish these photos forever, and we truly couldn’t imagine a better person to have behind the lens on the most important day of our lives. Run, don’t walk, to book them!”
