Meg Cooper Photography (Elopements & Micro Weddings) 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Serves Rutherford, CA
  • Offer

My name's Meg and I'm an elopement & intimate wedding photographer based in Northern California. I specialize in unhurried, all-day and multi-day adventures throughout Sonoma County, Mendocino, Redwood National Park, and beyond. I help couples create an elopement experience they wouldn't change a thing about with a highly comprehensive planning framework, and deliver photos that they want to show off on every wall.

Awarded Best of Zola
From our first phone call with Meg, we immediately knew she was the perfect fit for us. We were planning our elopement in California from New York so finding someone that we connected with and trusted without ever meeting was a big risk. But during our call Meg took the time to get to know us as individuals and as a couple, and ever more so after our first call to truly find out what we wanted out of our special day. Along the way she was so helpful with sending suggestions of locations, fun things to do, and once we narrowed it down sent a timeline to keep us on track. The day of our elopement we never felt like she was a pushy photographer like traditional wedding photographers are. She let us enjoy our time together and have those special moments. We can’t recommend Meg enough if you’re looking for a micro wedding or an elopement photographer!

Marc Blondin Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,100
  • Serves Rutherford, CA

I’m a wine country native and learned the photographic arts from my family. My early travels and studies in the art & humanities opened my horizons to culture and diversity, plus I'm of mixed ethnicity. I really enjoy photographing weddings, because it has influenced me in a variety of unexpected and good ways. Each wedding has their own uniqueness, personality, and beauty. My life experience in wedding, portrait, & event photography has been a very gratifying and fulfilling journey. I’ve been pro wedding photographer for over 15yrs, and I’m insured.

Choosing Marc Blondin as our photographer for our wedding day was the best decision we made! From the first consultation to the final retrieval of the photos, Marc was professional, communicative and so easy to work with. At one point I shared a really special moment with my Dad when tears started flowing like crazy, Marc stepped out to give us some space. We'll treasure these photos forever and can't recommend Marc Blondin Photography highly enough for anyone looking for a talented and reliable wedding photographer!

Jessamyn Harris Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Rutherford, CA

I photograph real people in natural light and gorgeous settings, throughout Sonoma & Napa Wine Country, the Bay Area, and beyond. Using humor, connection, and my calm & warm energy, I work with a wide variety of people from all backgrounds and perspectives (even/ especially camera shy folks!). I gently guide couples through very natural moments together, to capture their individual and collective personalities, in the most beautiful, & honest, way possible.

Jessamyn is one of my favorite photographers in the Bay Area! Being a wedding planner, I get to work with many different photographers all of the time. Sure - there are many talented photographers in the area for clients to choose from (Jessamyn being one of them). It's obvious by looking at her portfolio that she takes beautiful photographs but what you can't see online is how easy Jessamyn is to work with. When clients ask for advice on hiring a photographer, I always say that it's important that you choose a photographer who you are comfortable with. If you are uncomfortable, it will show in your photos. Jessamyn is extremely laid back in a good way. She goes with the flow and is a joy to work with. Her positive attitude and flexibility is truly what sets her apart from the many talented photographers in our area. I can't recommend Jessamyn enough!

My style has evolved through real-life experiences and the art of storytelling. I infuse an editorial flair with a touch of lifestyle while aiming to capture the emotions that resonate in each frame. I proudly dub myself a "Light and Shadow Chaser."

From the moment I first met with Danielle, I knew she was the perfect photographer to capture many special moments in my life. Her sensitive, encouraging and observant communication style immediately put us at ease, and her beautiful and dreamy work spoke for itself. Danielle was a part of our big day like family, and her passion and heartfelt approach to capturing the essence of who we are as a couple shone through in every moment she photographed. We are thrilled with the stunning images she created that we will cherish for a lifetime. Danielle truly went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was perfect.

Gretchen Gause Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Rutherford, CA

Inspired by everyday simplicities that could easily be overlooked, I'm in awe of the way we experience life; the way evening light falls on the road and on people's shoulders as they walk downtown hand in hand, and the soft way that the cool Russian River waters wrap around my ankles near the shore. I'm inspired by the vibrant and reaching pink vintage roses that bloom in spring on my walkway, and the way a sparkler in hand will always ignite wide eyed playfulness within.

Where do I even start? Gretchen did our engagement photos. I can't do justice to her incredible artistry (seriously, the most beautiful images I've ever seen -- so romantic and never cheesy). When I look at them they make me laugh, smile, and think, dang, my husband and I are hot! Besides the work itself, she was a dream to work with, keeping the mood light and fun and helping us feel authentic in what could have been an awkward experience-- not even close! Somehow she knew what to say to evoke real emotion, and it never felt like we were "posing". We will treasure these images the rest of our lives. I would jump at any opportunity to work with Gretchen again.

Zack Schomp Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves Rutherford, CA

I was raised north of San Francisco in beautiful West Sonoma County. My wife and I moved back home after living in Oakland for a number of years, and are now raising our daughter in the home my wife grew up in - it's magical. I love finding new places to photograph in Sonoma County and beyond, and I love making new memories in the familiar places I know so well. Weddings make me giddy, and I can't get enough of that feeling. Besides photographing weddings and spending time with my family, I'm also a lecturer in photography at CSU East Bay. Teaching what I love is a true gift, and I'm grateful for this opportunity to share with my students.

We worked with Zach for our June 2025 wedding, and from the very first phone call he was incredibly thoughtful, curious, and genuine. He really took the time to get to know my husband and me, and to understand our story. What stood out most was how much he emphasized wanting the relationship to feel like a good fit on both sides: he genuinely cared about creating a collaborative experience, making sure we connected with his style and felt totally comfortable working together. Leading up to the wedding, Zach was super communicative and organized. He even took the time to meet us at our venue while we were in town and snapped a few surprise photos during the walkthrough. On the wedding day itself, he struck the perfect balance of calm and focused. He kept things light and fun while being clear and efficient, making sure we stayed on schedule and got every shot we wanted. We got our photos back so quickly, and they’re absolutely beautiful. Zach is not only incredibly talented, but also just a genuinely great person to have around on such a big day. He’s the kind of person you’d want to grab a beer with or have a deep life talk. All in all we couldn’t have asked for a better photographer.

Jade Turgel Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Serves Rutherford, CA

My father handed me a camera when I was 7 years old and told me to shoot, everything, everywhere. I have had a camera in my hands ever since. After 8 years in Los Angeles I chose family over Hollywood. I wanted my kids to have the childhood experience I had – trees, dirt, animals and nature. Once back in Sonoma County, I had the great fortune of apprenticing with an award winning wedding photographer. After several years of the work, I was hooked! It’s an honor being with people on one of the most important days of their lives. To tell the story of it. To capture the beauty, the excitement, the drama of it all.

I have worked with Jade on multiple occasions and she never disappoints! She is responsive, professional, and creative. I would highly recommend Jade to everyone! Fantastic quality of work!

Alicia Parks Photography

  • Serves Rutherford, CA

Alicia Parks is an award winning, published wedding photographer. She understands how significant your wedding day is and is dedicated to capturing every beautiful, authentic moment with exceptional professionalism and care. Her unparalleled passion for her work and attention to detail set her apart, ensuring that every image reflects the true essence of your love story. 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.

Our approach is centered on capturing real emotions and candid moments, ensuring that every laugh, tear, and tender glance is preserved authentically. We believe in creating a relaxed environment where you can be yourselves, allowing us to document your day as it naturally unfolds.

I can’t stop looking at the photos and video, they captured every emotion perfectly. From the bride walking down the aisle to our family laughing during dinner, everything was documented beautifully. They were incredibly patient with all the kids and elderly guests, which I really appreciated. The video editing was flawless but still felt natural, not overdone. They made sure no detail was missed, even the little decorations and smiles in the crowd. I felt like I was reliving the day every time I watched it. Their professionalism was unmatched, and they somehow made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. The way they captured genuine laughter and happy tears was amazing. My friends who saw the photos said they were some of the most beautiful wedding photos they’d ever seen. I’m so grateful for the memories they’ve preserved for us.

Peter and his team at Bedrosian Photo did an incredible job capturing our wedding day.

The quality of the photos and video was outstanding. The colors were vibrant and natural, and the video was edited perfectly. Peter mentioned that he spends about a week selecting color tones that match the couple and the venue, and it really shows in the final result. His communication with his team was seamless, and he treated our wedding with so much care and intention—it never felt like just another job to him. We're forever grateful to Bedrosian Photo for preserving our day so beautifully.

We loved working with Murtaza and the MKEShoots team for our 6-event Indian wedding, plus engagement shoot. His passion for the art was so infectious, especially since it was our first time doing professional photos. It took us some time to warm up to the camera, but once we did, well, the pictures really speak for themselves. Murtaza especially has an incredible eye for creative photo ideas, and he and the team made it so much fun even though we were stressed out with all the wedding drama. They scoped out noteworthy outdoor locations that made amazing backdrops, helped corral family members together for group photos, and just generally went above & beyond to make sure we had coverage of all the important moments - all the big things and the small details too. The photos we ended up with were beyond what I imagined, I'm thrilled with how they turned out. Now, I just need someone to help put the wedding album together.... :)

We had the pleasure of working with their West Michigan Team. Jordan was fantastic and even got me a small birthday gift because my wedding was on my birthday! It was small details like this that really made our experience so great. She was great at getting us ready for photos with great directions. None of the wedding party were huge "photo" people, but she made us feel comfortable to allow for such great photos. Her eye for shots was fantastic. We have gotten so many compliments on our photos from everyone that we have shared them with! Beyond the photos themselves and the actual wedding day, Marisa had great communication. We received sneak peak photos within a day of the wedding and had the entire album less than a month out of the wedding. From what we have been told, this is a great timeline. We are so happy to have booked MSMP!
