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!

“I must say that Enea and Hayley are one of my favorite vendors! They were so easy to work with. Ticked all our boxes —— style, preferences, you name it! They were so creative with the poses they made us do, and you can see that they are veeeery passionate in what they do (I can’r remember how many times I said this to my husband lol). The photos and highlight video was so amazing it just makes me want to get married to my husband all over again and have them cover it lol! They make a really great team. Kudos and please keep making couples happy!”

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.

“Sound Originals was beyond incredible for my wedding. I communicated to them that I wanted to add video a few months out from my wedding and it was a stress free process. My husband and I are a bit awkward when taking photos and my photographer and videographer were so great in helping us get comfortable and trying different poses that made us less awkward in front of the camera. They both helped keep the energy high all throughout the night and my only regret was not hiring them for longer to capture things that had happened after they left. My bridal party and guests were telling me how great my photographer and videographer were. I just got my photos back and they are exactly what I wanted; Moody, slightly editorial with some candid moments. I can’t recommend Sound Originals enough and I will be recommending them to friends and family that are in need of a photographer/videographer”

Add-ons to my packages can include videography and second shooters. Message me for more details!

“I hired Vic to photograph my bridal shower based on some recommendations on FaceBook! I took one look at her portfolio and knew that she was talented. She made the booking process super easy and was reachable via Email and Text. She formalized the agreement via contract which was very professional and helped me guarantee that she would be committed to my event. On the day of the event, she went above and beyond. She helped calm me as we were running a bit late but she kept things moving the whole event. She captured photos of me, my guests, and got detailed shots of all our decorations. Our guests loved that she offered pointers on how to pose and stand. Not to mention she took several photos of every shot - I’ve worked with photographers in the past who will only take 1 shot, but not Vic! After the event, she gave me all the unedited photos within 48 hours which was a HUGE win! She captured around 700 photos of my 2 hour event - I was stunned in the best way. Overall, working with her was a dream and I cannot wait to hire her for my next event.”

Clean. Simple. Minimal. Keeping a candid nature in capturing the rare and truest emotions of our couples. We believe that itself is perfection. The sight of a simple, yet bizarre snapshot of priceless moments makes it best and natural.

“From start to finish, working with Ron and Trinity Studios was fantastic. I wasn't sure how photogenic I was, but they managed to get some amazing shots that made me look great. More importantly, they captured my wife looking absolutely radiant on our big day. The photos were top-notch, with every shot perfectly timed and framed to tell the story of our wedding. Their professionalism was impressive. They didn’t just show up and take pictures—they worked with us closely to make sure our vision came to life. They gave great advice and kept things light and fun. Their punctuality and positive attitude made everything run smoothly and kept us relaxed. The quality of the photos was out of this world. Each image was beautiful, whether it was a candid moment or a posed shot. They had a knack for capturing those perfect moments and turning them into gorgeous pictures. Communication and planning were also spot on. From our first meeting to getting the final photos, Ron and Trinity was always quick to respond and super helpful. On the wedding day, they were easy to work with, effortlessly posing us and our families, and blending in with the celebration. We felt the value we got was more than worth it. We were impressed by their mix of professionalism, friendliness, and artistic flair. Most importantly, they made the whole process enjoyable and stress-free.

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.

“We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.”

Fine art style

Luxury wedding photography in California and worldwide... You want your photos to be as unique as you are. You want photos that capture the intimacy and emotion of your day. I have spent the past decade developing my approach to wedding photography, learning how to be unobtrusive, when to take the lead, and when to take step back and anticipate the moment. The resulting experience is one that allows you to be in the moment. The resulting images are authentic, beautiful and timeless.

“We were looking for a wedding photographer and Roberta happened to be recommended to us by coworkers. After our first meeting, we knew that we were in good hands. Roberta is organized, pays attention to detail, and is incredibly easy to work with. Our venue was in Mammoth Lakes, about a 6 hour drive, and Roberta was more than happy to accommodate a destination wedding. She even scoped it out the day before to check the landscape and lighting. During our photo sessions, we felt relaxed and natural, at times not even realizing she was there. Her style was right in line with ours and fit the mountain venue perfectly. Roberta listened to our requests and truly captured every detail of our special day from start to finish. We are so grateful to have so many amazing pictures to look back on and remember it like it was yesterday. We highly recommend Roberta and would love to work with her again should we need photos in the future.”

Cassie Valente Photography

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.

“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!!”

He checked in regularly with us and initiated phone calls to discuss our style preferences and plans for the day. He also took the lead on logistics for our post ceremony photo locations, all we had to do was tell him our dream photo ideas and he made it work within our time frame. He even helped us find the location of my parent's wedding photo to re-create the shot :) Throughout the day he kept things moving and super fun. We both felt comfortable in front of his camera and trusted him and his vision completely. He shared sneak peaks with us the next day and continued to send peaks until our final gallery was ready.

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.

“If you are looking for an engagement and wedding photography / videography team, Apollo Fotografie is the one for you. Truly the best wedding photographer in San Francisco and in the overall Bay Area!! From our engagement shoots to our actual wedding day, the team was nothing short of amazing. When we were searching for a photo / video team, we wanted a team that was incredibly knowledgeable about cultural, Indian Hindu weddings - we looked at various portfolios, and Apollo’s portfolio stood out to us the most! We first contacted the team in August, and every single one of our communications with Liv was professional, fun, honest, engaging, and comfortable. It was like speaking with a close friend - Liv made us both feel incredibly comfortable and excited for our big day! I had to apologize to her several times for bugging her with so many questions - but she always responded quickly and transparently!! It was truly a blessing, as other vendors we were interviewing for photography were not as communicative! From then on, we knew Apollo was the team for us. Leading up to the wedding, we worked very closely with Andra. Andra is so wonderful, easy-going, and fun. Speaking with Andra on our numerous calls to discuss our vision was like speaking with a close friend as well. Our wedding calls the week of were incredibly helpful - Andra was incredibly detailed in making sure she understood which shots we wanted, going over timelines and visions with us, and ensuring that we can relax while they take care of everything and make everyone and everything look beautiful. On our wedding day, the entire team was ON TIME (I say this in caps as being on time on a tight deadline is truly important), incredibly friendly, and made us both feel very very very comfortable in our own skin. Andra, Josh, and Alexa were truly truly fantastic, professional, knew all the right angles, and were able to adjust on the fly (which is what you need in in a photo video team). The entire team had incredible vision and had such an eye for detail, knew how to pose to make it look less awkward, were cracking jokes to keep us at ease (one funny moment was when my wife and I were doing our first look, our priest and one of my close friends walked by, and they suggested doing a first look with them as well :) ) but also captured such natural, loving, fun moments of us and our family. Further, literally 2 days after our wedding, Andra sent us the most amazing sneak peeks we have ever seen. My wife and I were absolutely shocked at how beautiful the pictures came out - everyone looked so natural and loving. Further, the artistic vision as I mentioned above was clearly present in these pictures!!! Overall, I highly highly recommend Apollo Fotografie for your photo and video needs!! I promise you, you will not be disappointed.”

Jasmine Lee is a destination wedding and lifestyle photographer residing in San Francisco, California. She is devoted to discerning couples and individuals that value the quality of crafting artistic and timeless imagery they will cherish for a lifetime.

“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.”

Her work is so breathtaking as she took advantage of the colors, scenery, and general beauty of our wedding. We are truly thankful for Annalee for capturing our day with such beautiful photos.

Photoflood Studio specializes in wedding, engagement, and family photography. We aim to photograph life + love through an honest documentary approach.

She really knows how to make you feel comfortable and to just be yourself. (And I think that's key to a perfect picture.) Another great thing about Photoflood Studio was how professional and thorough they are. They reminded us of things we didn't even know we had to do and always checked in on us and made sure we were on track. Obviously the photos came out great~ but what makes Photoflood so special are the people involved. We were so lucky to have her not just as a photographer but also as a friend to talk to or ask for advice throughout the whole wedding planning process. She is an amazing photographer but also just an amazing person! Also shoutout to Jackson- we love you too! Thank you!”

Sarah Peterson Photography

San Francisco, CA

Photojournalistic style
Starts at $3,888

I'm a Bay Area native with over 12 years in the commercial photography realm. I got my start on the beaches of Los Angeles back in 2012 shooting commercial swimwear campaigns for some of the best designers in swim and fashion. That opened the door to countless opportunities with modeling agencies, reality television, and fashion design. In 2018 I made the move back up north to San Francisco where I grew up. With a wide network of friends and family up here, I found myself catapulted into the Wedding and Elopement industry - and absolutely loved it! I'm honored when I get to be a part of one of the best days of a couple's life together.

“I had the hardest time finding a photographer I clicked with until I found Sarah! I knew from the zoom consult I had to book her. She was funny and confident from the beginning and made such a fun addition to our day!!”

Hello! My name is Emily and I have been a photographer since 2015. I have found my passion in photography through all the little moments of your big day. I'm inspired to make you feel at ease and stress free for a fun day of shooting. I have a laid back shooting style that helps capture moments you will treasure for lifetime memories. I am an open communicator and love hearing your ideas. I am happy to go above and beyond for your session and magnify the small details. Love knows no limits and I’m here for it!

“Emily did everything she could to work with our budget and even though she did, it DID NOT mean I was sacrificing quality. She came and did my engagement photos in San Luis Obispo (where we got engaged) and then drove to Yosemite for the big day! She is an absolute joy to be around and such a nice person. Her photos made me feel beautiful! She really does well in capturing the candid moments. I would 100% call her again for any life event in the future!”

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.

“We had a wonderful experience working with Rachel and her team. We traveled from out of state to renew our vows and Rachel not only provided recommendations for nearby places to visit, she provided everything we needed including the photography, flowers, my wife’s makeup and hair services. The communication with her team was amazing as well. We felt completely prepared and at ease the entire time.”

Oklahoma raised, Princeton educated, and founder of Portrait of a Young Couple, documenting how couples of all backgrounds and identities across the world live and love. I'd love to be a part of helping to capture you and your partner's love.

“We worked with Vincent for our wedding in February of 2021. We scheduled our wedding with him several months beforehand. Leading up to the day, he had checked in several times to see how our plans had been coming, evolving, and what our expectations were the day of. He is incredibly personable, professional, and talented. We didn't ask for a lot of specific shots and the few we did ask for came out way better than we could have possibly imagined. Vincent took beautiful photos of us, our family, and our friends. For our camera-shy friends, he kept laughing with us, creating an atmosphere of joy and stress-free photography! He was quick to ensure that all of us being photographed were comfortable. Since our wedding, we have recommended him to literally every person who lets us know that they're engaged. We really can't say enough about Vincent and his work! The best we can say is that we highly recommend working with him- he is a truly amazing human and photographer!”

“5-Star Review for JJ Ignotz Photography I can’t recommend JJ Ignotz Photography highly enough. JJ has been a trusted collaborator of mine for nearly a decade, photographing high-end weddings and events throughout New York City. Most recently, she captured our own wedding, and I can confidently say—there’s no one else I would have wanted behind the lens on such an important day. JJ is the full package: reliable, incredibly talented, deeply knowledgeable, and an absolute joy to work with. She brings a calm, professional presence to every shoot and has an uncanny ability to catch the real, unscripted moments that make events truly unforgettable. Her eye for detail, composition, and lighting is second to none, and she consistently delivers images that feel both timeless and alive. Whether you’re planning a luxury wedding, a corporate event, or an intimate celebration, JJ brings the same level of care, artistry, and enthusiasm. I’m grateful not only for the beautiful images she’s created over the years, but for the trust and partnership she brings to every project. Five stars, every time.”
