Dustin Wheeler Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Sacramento, CA

Specializing in Outdoor Weddings and Elopements! Growing up fishing and hiking at the age of three, I spend as much time as possible outside! Searching out new swimming holes in the summer, traveling to the mountains and along the coast throughout the year! Backpacking, hiking and climbing. Quickly adding more locations to shoot!

I was drawn to Dustin's passion for nature and experience with outdoor setting for weddings. We had an elopement ceremony by the river and Dustin captured the warmth and love of our special day. I'm so appreciative of the positive energy and enthusiasm he brought and his flexibility to take photos at multiple locations. He exceeded our expectations and his passion for nature and people shines through. Great communication, arrived early, and beautiful photos!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Eivan’s for our wedding was a great decision! Our photographer Gregory I was professional and FUN! He kept us smiling throughout the day with his quirky personality! My fiancé does not care for photos so I’m happy we had someone working with us who could make him comfortable. He made sure to get multiple images even if it was just “one more”, it was never one more! We had actually hired a different photographer and we replaced him with this company. Worth the stress and money! If I had any tips for the company, it would be to have your photographers give a 30 minute warning before their contracted time is up. Weddings are so busy for the bride and groom, it is very easy to lose track of time. I think clients would appreciate a little heads up just so they can try and capture any photos they may have missed. Other than that, I have ZERO complaints. Such an amazing experience! 10/10 highly recommend :)

Annie Hall Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Sacramento, CA

This is for you, couples who have too many moments to be present for. You’ll have photographs that show the heart and soul of the day without having to stage or fake things for the camera. I'll make images that help you remember what happened, who was there, what it looked like, and what it felt like.

Awarded Best of Zola
It's easy to look through Annie's photos to see how amazing they are -- I loved her style from the moment I saw her galleries and I was hopeful that our photos would look just as great. Guess what, they are amazing!! She also delivered ALL of our photos in 4 weeks, when she herself got married 2 weeks after us! Maybe the most important piece of guidance that she gave us was to take as many family photos before the event as possible. That way you can focus on the fun once it starts. And let me tell you -- that was good advice. I didn't want to spend a second on more staged photos once the party had started! We actually got to attend part of our cocktail hour because of this. Of course every event is different, but my point is that she will be able to guide you in the right direction because she has a ton of experience. I loved working with her and you will too! Also I didn't even include the best shots because I want to keep our faces off the internet, but look at the range just in these photos! So fun.

Fits & Stops Photography 

5.0

Sacramento, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,295

I’m a sucker for a story, especially a love story. Ever since beginning a love affair with photography in Scotland, I’ve worked to capture striking photography for hopeless romantics. From traditional weddings to elopements, I’m game to capture creative and sentimental moments in timeless color.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so glad we found P.J. from Fits and Stops Photography. From the early planning stages, he was attuned to our needs and photographic wishes. Prior to booking him for the wedding, we did an engagement photo session with him. We were very happy with his professionalism, creativity, and fun personality. He had the photos to us quickly and we were so happy with his work that we booked him for our wedding. He created a custom wedding photo package tailored to our photography needs. We planned a relatively small wedding at a family’s vineyard, but then the global pandemic happened. In the months and weeks leading up to our wedding P.J. was incredibly flexible, understanding, and accommodating. As our plans continued to change weekly and then daily, P.J. remained positive and supportive. Because of the pandemic, we had so many stressors and challenges, but P.J. was never one of them. We knew no matter what we still wanted to be married on our original date and even if no one could attend, we wanted P.J. there to take photos. Literally days before our wedding, we finalized a plan to do an elopement ceremony deep in the forest. It required a long drive to the mountains, a bumpy ride on a dirt road, a hike into the woods, and a short climb to a rocky overlook. Not exactly what P.J. thought he was getting into when we booked him for a vineyard wedding months ago, but he was 100% on board with our new plan and so excited for us. It meant a lot to us to have all his positive energy and enthusiasm with us on our wedding day. Though our wedding did not go as we thought it would when we planned it many months ago, our wedding was beautiful and P.J. did a fantastic job capturing the elopement ceremony. The day after our wedding he sent us a few photos to share with our family and friends sheltering in place around the globe. His photos meant so much to those who were eagerly waiting to gather for our wedding, only to be devastated when we had to alter our plans. Many people commented they felt they were right there with us as they looked through P.J.’s photos. We couldn’t be happier with our photos and our experience working with P.J. We look forward to the day when we can all gather safely in celebration and we hope we can have P.J. there to capture all those special moments with our family and friends.

The Freckled Photographer Sacramento 

5.0

Sacramento, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

Wendy is the bubbly redhead (with freckles of course) that has been behind the camera at The Freckled Photographer for over six years. Despite her lively personality, this woman gets down to business and is one of the most organized you will ever meet, working seamlessly with your wedding day schedule. She loves to capture the images that her clients expect, and many more candid moments that showcase their personal story.

When the pandemic hit our wedding ceremony was delayed, so my wife and I opted to have a mini ceremony at her parents house. Wendy was very accommodating given all the restrictions at the time and did a wonderful job capturing the evening! Even though it was only my wife's parents in attendance (and two dogs) the photos are incredibly beautiful and really captured how special that day was for us.

Jessica did a truly amazing job as our wedding photographer! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a crisp, clean editing style, lots of candids, and fun posed shots. I was surprised that she was one of the least expensive quotes I got from wedding photographers (even including a second shooter) because her wedding portfolio was so beautiful. You will not regret booking, I promise.
