Loes Takes Clips 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves San Francisco, CA

I'm a photographer who loves, love and being able to share that through my lens is what drives everything I do. I have a deep adoration for storytelling and capturing the authentic, unscripted moments that matter most. I believe every love story is unique, and my goal is to bring excitement, ease, and a calming presence to your most important day. With a passion for preserving real emotions and meaningful memories, I aim to capture photographs that you'll cherish for a lifetime.

Logan has been a good friend of mine for years, so asking her to photograph our engagement shoot was a no-brainer for me. Her natural ability to bring any vision to life, mixed with her unwavering work ethic, is what sets her apart. I can tell her one idea I have, and she will effortlessly create something better than I could have ever imagined. We have a 1965 Corvette in our family that I thought would be cool to use as part of our shoot. I trusted her to tell us where and how we could incorporate it, and she brought our vision to life. She goes above and beyond, even standing in the middle of the road in Carmel-by-the-Sea as cars try to pass, to bring that vision to life. Also, we are far from naturals in front of the camera. I always rely on Logan to give us ideas for how to create movement and relax. Working with someone so kind and able to make you feel comfortable is crucial, because it not only creates an outcome you will love, but you will have fun doing so as well.

Original Weddings Photo & Video is a team of EMMY award winning storytellers. Our photography and videography packages are tailored to you, customizable and perfect for every wedding. We offer engagement photography, wedding photos, highlight films, wedding coverage and more.

Awarded Best of Zola
We could not be happier with our experience with Original Weddings. Photography was one of our top priorities, and choosing their highest photography package was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. It was important to us to capture all the memories of the day, which is why we wanted full-day coverage and a second shooter. We are so glad we did. Nothing was missed. From different angles during the ceremony to candid guest reactions we did not get to see in the moment, every detail was captured, both big and small. The engagement shoot, which was included in our package, made such a difference. It helped us learn how to pose, allowed our photographer to get to know our personalities, and gave us the chance to be creative together. By the time the wedding day arrived, nothing felt awkward or forced. We felt completely comfortable and had a lot of fun. On the wedding day, Ashton gave gentle direction that felt natural, fun, and creative, while still allowing moments to unfold organically. Our second shooter, Solomon, was equally wonderful. He was creative, personable, and a joy to be around. We truly felt the love and care that both Ashton and Solomon put into their craft. We also chose to receive our photos in all three editing styles they offer, along with black and white images, which gave us so much variety and made the gallery feel incredibly thoughtful and complete. Even more impressive, we received our full gallery back in just four weeks. Getting our photos back so quickly made the experience even more meaningful. It allowed us to share them with my husband’s grandmother before she passed away, which is something we will always be grateful for. We have friends who were married a month before us and are still waiting on their photos, so this level of care and turnaround truly stood out. Looking through our photos feels like reliving the day with our favorite people, all the love, joy, and emotion captured so beautifully. If photography is a top priority for you, this is the team to book. We cannot recommend Original Weddings enough.

Khariza is such a beautiful soul and amazing photographer. Her work speaks for itself and the seamless execution from start to finish was so refreshing. My husband and I purchased her package that included an engagement photoshoot, along with our wedding photoshoot, and we also included film photography as well in our package and we are so happy we included that. They came out spectacularly. Khariza helped us from the very beginning to determine many aspects of our wedding by meeting with her and going over her forms. She also provided us with great recommendations for some of the vendors we were still looking for that we ended up contracting and loving as well! She is very well seasoned, upbeat and knowledgeable. We wanted a bilingual photographer to communicate in Spanish with some of our guests, which she fit perfectly for our needs. We are so pleased in working with Khariza and are so happy we invested in such a professional and personable photographer for our special day. Thank you so much Khariza!

Love Knot Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (27 reviews)
San Francisco, CA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,500

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

We’re Apollo Fotografie. When it comes to visual storytelling, we don’t miss a beat. We prioritize organization, punctuality, and beauty so your wedding day looks better than your dreams. At Apollo, inclusivity is one of our core values, and our couples come from all backgrounds. We know that not everyone is comfortable in front of the camera, and we’re here to help. All of our photographers use prompts and suggestions to encourage natural interactions for a less “scripted” feel.

We absolutely recommend Apollo Fotografie. We had a fantastic experience from start to finish, from our very first call with Liv through our wedding day. Our main photographer, Jess, also photographed our engagement shoot, which gave us the chance to understand her style and build a relationship ahead of the wedding. This made the wedding day feel easy and natural. She made us feel incredibly comfortable, encouraged us to try new poses, and we fully trusted her with both our couples photos and family photos. We had a wonderful time working with Jess and Mikie on our wedding day. They really listened to what mattered most to us, including our photography preferences and emphasis on candid moments, while also bringing thoughtful professional recommendations that made us feel confident throughout the process. Jess absolutely crushed it. She was incredibly organized, struck the perfect balance between calm and guidance, and worked wonderfully with our families. Mikie was also fantastic and worked especially well with the groomsmen, keeping things moving and everyone on track. We are absolutely thrilled with how the photos turned out and truly love our wedding photos. If you are looking for a Bay Area wedding photographer, the Apollo Fotografie team is truly one of the best you can find.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Vivi's photography team for my wedding at San Francisco City Hall, and I can't express enough how incredible the experience was. From our initial conversation, I was impressed by their professionalism and attention to detail. On the big day, I was extremely nervous, especially after a mix-up led us to the wrong floor just 30 minutes before the ceremony. But Vivi stepped in and took charge, managing everything flawlessly. She made sure every detail was perfect, from organizing the procession to adjusting my dress and setting up the perfect shots. The photos turned out to be beyond anything I could have imagined. Vivi captured all the moments I hoped for, with every shot full of life and emotion. Even my friends were amazed by the quality of the photos.

San Francisco, CA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $9,750

My name is Cassie and I am a hybrid film + digital photographer, completely fascinated by the human story and the parts of it that we all share. My aim is to tell the story of your love and laughter through images that are timeless and intentional. I believe in storytelling through details, emotional portraits, and finding those quiet moments in the midst of celebration. I love capturing real moments that help my couples remember how they felt on their wedding day, through the lens of my own airy and dreamy style.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we started working with Cassie, it felt like we were reconnecting with an old friend. Cassie is so thoughtful, patient, and funny- and we got to experience that multiple times when we connected with her for our photography. We truly believe that her vision and personality is what makes her photos feel so authentic and filled with light love. As awkward people anxious about taking photos, we were so relieved how Cassie made us feel comfortable from the beginning of our engagement session. She was able to somehow fade into the background, while also guiding us and capturing genuine moments. We loved that photo session so much that we ended up hiring her for our welcome dinner as well! Cassie was so easy to work with leading up to the wedding, making sure to get a list of our important shots ahead of the wedding while working closely with our planner to make sure there was a clear schedule. This meant that we could be as present as possible on our wedding day. On the big day, Cassie honestly felt more like a part of the wedding rather than simply a vendor. She knew how to make everyone comfortable, made sure the bridesmaids and groomsmen were having fun, and made the day feel natural for us. We got all of the wedding photos we wanted, and managed to even be AHEAD of schedule so we got to spend more time at our cocktail hour!!! Cassie’s photos capture the full range of emotions on the wedding day, because she’s able to connect deeply with her couples and understand what is important to them. Her style was something we gravitated to as we wanted a photographer who would not simply chronicle our event, but also capture the small details and genuine emotions that we might miss during the day. For both the engagement shoot and our wedding weekend, Cassie promptly delivered sneak peek highlights within a couple of days, and the full album within her initial estimate (8 weeks). She managed to capture the full essence of the day. Everytime we look at those photos, they bring us right back to those moments and feelings. We are so lucky and thankful to have had Cassie as our photographer. Hire her for your wedding! You will not regret it!!

The final edited photos were delivered quickly after the wedding, and the quality was truly professional and a cut above the rest.

Jazmin was such an amazing photographer during our wedding. She went above and beyond SO many times, it blew me away. From agreeing to do our engagement photoshoot on a stormy cold, rainy day, to bringing specialized unique props for us to use. She continued to blow me away with her dedication to being exceptional and so friendly, sweet, and easygoing. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and the photos were exceptional. She advertises herself as your BFF, and it really feels like it. You can tell she cares about her clients. On our wedding day, she also excelled, and we have beautiful photos, as well as film, and we just finalized our photo album with pictures from our engagement shoot as well as wedding. Jazmin included special shots I asked for such as a group photo, and artsy shots with bubbles in the forest. She was our favorite vendor hands down. They say the photographer should be one of the few vendors you splurge on, and we are SO happy we did. It was 100% worth every penny and more. I will recommend her to any of my friends getting married in the future.

An expert on wild and beautiful locations on the West Coast (California, Oregon, Washington, Hawaii) I am a full time photographer with a passion for creating timeless and candid art about your life. I service all of Southern California, Northern California, Oregon, Washington and Hawaii regularly, and will travel anywhere you want me to go to document your love!

From the moment we started working with Michelle, she made us feel calm, supported, and truly cared for. On our wedding day, her presence alone brought so much peace. She felt like a trusted friend who was fully there for us and genuinely invested in making our day special. Taking photos with Michelle felt natural and easy. She guided us gently and made the experience fun and comfortable, allowing us to be ourselves and stay present with each other. Nothing ever felt rushed or awkward, just joyful and real. Michelle went so far beyond what we ever expected from a photographer. She helped us pull everything together, including picking flowers and making our bouquets when we didn’t have any. She helped with our timeline, locations, and made sure the entire day flowed smoothly. She even drove us everywhere we needed to go, all while keeping us calm and grounded. Michelle married us, photographed us, and captured video all on her own, which still amazes us. Somehow, she was everywhere at once, quietly capturing the most meaningful moments without ever interrupting them. When we saw our photos and video, we were overwhelmed in the best way. She captured the emotions, the love, and the little in-between moments so perfectly. Looking through everything brings us right back to how the day felt, and that is something we will forever be grateful for. Choosing Michelle was one of the best decisions we made. She gave us memories we will cherish for the rest of our lives, and we cannot recommend her enough.

Courtney came highly recommended to us by one of my best friends, and we truly feel so lucky that she was our wedding photographer. From the very beginning, she was incredibly easy to work with, organized, and very experienced which helped everything run smoothly. On our wedding day she felt like so much more than just a photographer — she was an extra source of support, helping guide us through the timeline, hyping us up, and making sure we were actually able to enjoy the day. It was clear she genuinely cared about making it a smooth and memorable day for us. We interviewed several photographers before choosing Courtney, and what really stood out was not only how beautiful her photos were but also how thoughtfully they were edited. When comparing her galleries to others, it was clear she puts real care and time into her editing process. She does an exceptional job editing skin tones (especially for those of us who are Asian or have tan/dark skin), making sure colors look true to life and not overly yellow or orange like we’ve sometimes seen with other photographers. Our wedding day was busy and chaotic at times, but Courtney went above and beyond helping organize people and keeping things on track. She was incredibly patient and great with kids and grandparents, and handled every situation with professionalism and kindness. She also asked thoughtful questions ahead of time to make sure she captured the moments that mattered most to us, which we really appreciated. She was also amazing at coaching us through poses so nothing looked awkward or forced. The final photos look so natural and effortless, which is exactly what we wanted. As an added bonus, she beautifully captured the love and connection between us in a way that felt so genuine. On top of everything, she was wonderful with our rowdy dog and made a real effort to include him in our photos, which meant so much to us. Overall, Courtney is not only a talented photographer who delivers stunning photos, but also a true professional who brings calm, positivity, and care to your wedding day. We cannot recommend her highly enough.

From the very first email, zoom meetings, to the moment she arrived at our hotel the morning of our wedding to the very last minute eight hours later, she was the definition of professionalism, talent, and calm energy. Julia gave my husband and I our dream wedding day in every sense of the word. Her attention to detail, direction, and posing skills made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, and she somehow managed to keep everything running smoothly while still making it so fun and natural. She was an absolute ROCKSTAR the entire day, anticipating moments before they happened and capturing them so beautifully and effortlessly. When working with her, you feel as if you’ve known her your whole life. Beyond her impressive talent, Julia is just an amazing person to be around. She is personable, friendly, kind, funny, and so outgoing—it honestly felt like we had a close friend by our side all day. That kind of presence made such a difference and allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment of our wedding day. And the sneak peek photos… omg we were BEYOND blown away and I cried tears of joy and am still at a loss for words looking at them everyday! Receiving them in less than 48 hours was already impressive, but the photos themselves were beyond anything we could have imagined—stunning, romantic, emotional, and perfectly capturing the magic of our day. She is worth every penny and more! From the day I found her Instagram and website, I knew there was no other photographer I could use for our wedding. Whether you’re getting married at the iconic San Francisco City Hall, on a Safari in Africa, or under the northern lights, she has the itinerary mapped out to a T and gives you the resources to make your day absolutely seamless while always keeping you in the loop and making you feel important and valued. It was truly a dream come true to have Julia as our wedding photographer. We could not have had a more treasured and memorable day without her, and we will be forever grateful. 10000000/10 experience and I want to get married over and over just to have her shoot us again! Thank you again, Julia-you made my wedding dreams come true️

If you’re looking for a photographer, stop your search right now — Jasmine is simply the best. She was referred to us by a close friend with impeccable taste, and wow… she exceeded every expectation. Our wedding came together in less than two months (which was chaos in itself) and on top of that, she had to deal with two stressed-out gays — but somehow, Jasmine made the entire process effortless. She is incredibly flexible, knowledgeable, and just brings this calm, confident energy that instantly puts you at ease. I was lucky enough to have her shoot our wedding ceremony and I still can’t get over how amazing the photos turned out. Every shot looks straight out of a movie — I honestly don’t know how she does it. She’s detail-oriented, organized, and has this eye for capturing the little moments that matter most. After seeing how beautiful our wedding photos were (which we’ll cherish forever), I asked her to photograph my post-bachelor party — and of course, she delivered again. Beyond her insane talent, Jasmine is just a joy to be around. So easy to work with, so responsive, and she makes everyone feel comfortable. Hiring her is not just hiring a photographer — it’s an investment in your memories. I’ll be recommending her to all my friends and family. She’s outstanding.

Annalee was wonderful to work with. From the initial conversation to the actual day. She had great communication and it was also awesome to see her portfolio grow while we were waiting for our own special day. Annalee was super professional and sweet to work with. She handled all the chaos of our wedding very well and I super appreciate that she was able to take control of getting the shots when things were confusing and overwhelming. It was actually really nice to be directed when theres so much going on! In regards to her work, she has an excellent eye for framing and beautiful color grading. Her vibes come off as someone who really cares about their craft, as well as you, the client! We got our photos back about a month after and feel that literally every shot is perfect. There's a fantastic mix of behind the scenes, candids, staged etc. Our photos just feel very authentic and personal. These photos really help us relive the day (best day ever!) Please hire Annalee, shes absolutely worth it. We'd love to work with her again should the occasion arise!

At Tangerine Weddings, we are a team of Bay Area wedding professionals that provides quality photography and videography coverage while making the process fun and easy for couples! Currently serving the San Francisco Bay Area and San Diego, CA for 2026+2027 wedding dates.

When I was first planning our wedding, I went back and forth about videography. Often these days, social media and content creation seems to be the priority, but all I cared about was in a year, in five years, in thirty years, I wanted to sit with my husband and look back on us vowing our love to one another, watching the ceremony as a whole. Tangerine Weddings was the last vendor that I hired. They were highly recommended by my DJ (JustIntertainment, another wonderful vendor), and I debated on adding the expense. What a fool that I was to have had a single moment of hesitation. Kelsey and Sean met with me over a video call as I inquired about their services, and I immediately knew that I wanted the energy of their team to capture our wedding day. They were personable, charming, light-hearted, and approachable. As we approached the wedding day, Kelsey would reach out to check in, and I loved that touch of added care. They paired me with Leo for the wedding day, who showed up with all the same characteristics. My husband and I had no reason to feel shy with how kind our videographer Leo (and our photographers from another vendor) supported us. Hiring Tangerine Weddings was a wonderful choice. This week, my husband and I watched our ceremony video. I couldn't believe all that I didn't remember from being so much in the moment, and I am so thankful that this team captured all that they did. The highlight video was absolutely stunning too. I highly recommend this team to capture your special day. To those reading this, may your day be all the sunshine that you dreamed, and may you look back on the video footage remembering all the love and goodness that you shared. x

I'm best known for my elegant and playful small weddings photographed at the iconic San Francisco City Hall throughout the last decade. After serving many hundreds of couples there, I've taken my super powers as a creative storyteller and solver of all wedding planning problems out into the wonderlands of Northern California. Inspired by places that are stunningly beautiful yet still affordable I love finding creative twists to keep her couples excited about their weddings no matter what their budget.

I love this team so much already! They have been amazing to work with and have great communication skills from Rachel, Leza, Melika, Nora, and our officiant, Shawn. The whole process is so worth booking. As a busy couple, we needed an extra hand for our City Hall SF marriage. And they made our flowers just like we asked for! I am a social worker, and it is obvious that their team knows weddings and how to make sure the day flows smoothly. We had a snafu and the team helped us so much. I will post more of the review after my photos are sent as well. We had a fantastic day at City Hall on 10/31. Here is a cell phone photo I last min asked for :) Dog friendly is always a plus.
