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 highly recommend Apollo Fotografie if you're looking for a Bay Area wedding photographer and videographer! In fact, we chose Apollo because we were so in love with the wedding photos they took for another couple at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco. From our very first inquiry to our big day, Liv was thorough, detail-oriented, and always made us feel taken care of. The email follow-ups and timeline reminders were impeccable! Our wedding photos and video are stunning!!! It's such a wonderful way to relive the memories. We're so grateful for Carrie and Jas (our wedding photographers) and Terrence (videographer) for capturing our special day. Everyone showed up on time and was professional. Carrie was very thoughtful in capturing the exact angles I had shared with her in my vision document, and Jas did a phenomenal job on our tea ceremony and getting-ready photos. Terrence captured an incredible drone shot of the Palace of Fine Arts, which was shared in the beginning of our wedding video. We love all the candid shots from our ceremony, reception and dance floor! Thank you Apollo Fotografie for making our wedding memories truly unforgettable!

Cassie Valente Photography 

5.0

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!!

Jasmine Lee Photography

San Francisco, CA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $5,700

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

I'm Jess, a hybrid digital + film photographer based in Northern California, as seen published in Over the Moon. My work blends photography mediums— using film for its timelessness and digital for its sophistication.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jessica was absolutely AMAZING! My finance and I got our engagement photos done by her and they turned out phenomenal. We flew out all the way to San Fran from Texas just to use her! We both don’t really feel comfortable in front of the camera but Jessica made us feel very comfortable and helped position us in photos & they honestly looked very natural in the photos. There was lots of laughing and it was overall an amazing experience. The turn over time to get the photos was super fast! I can’t express how much we love our photos, I honestly cried when I received them. She also gave us a great list of locations to take photos so she definitely knows what she’s doing. She’s great with using natural light and making images look amazing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Hi there! I’m Emma CotéEwers, your East Coast & Destination Wedding and Lifestyle Photographer! My work is a seamless blend of traditional heirloom portraiture, lively artistic shots, and a little ​photojournalism if the day calls for it. With a true-to-color, film-inspired approach, I strive to craft visuals that capture love, ​laughter, and those beautifully authentic moments that weave together the story of your ​wedding! I feel like these should include fun ​facts? Patsy Cline’s Walkin’ After Midnight is my favorite song and I am currently on my 8th ​nostalgic binge of Gilmore Girls (which might just be fueling my banter lately).

Awarded Best of Zola
Emma captured our engagement photos, our rehearsal dinner, and our wedding day in absolutely the most beautiful way. She’s so wonderful to work with, provides a gazillion photos, and even woke up at dawn to photograph our sunrise vows (which we told her was completely not necessary, but she was just truly excited to capture the moment which really speaks to the kind of person she is) and then also stayed all night long to photograph the dance floor. She is a joy to be around and made the photos so fun, she captured little in between moments beautifully, was organized and detailed, the cost of her services is so beyond reasonable, and she gave us photos that will last us a lifetime. 10000/10 would recommend her to capture your special day. We couldn’t thank you enough, Emma!!!

Hello lovely! Let me introduce myself—I’m Sarah. Welcome to my little creative space—I hope you love it here & make yourself at home. My goal as your photographer is to put you at ease and therefore be able to capture your moments authentically and beautifully. As a film and digital photographer ("hybrid" if you will!), I take a big step back to capture your memories with intention, love, and honesty - my promise to you, is to treat your day as if it were my own. Film is my favorite medium to capture wedding days on, as I feel it brings back a level of authenticity, imperfection, and refined elegance that is irreplaceable.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we booked Fox & Fig Photography for our wedding, their communication was phenomenal and they were always quick to respond to any questions we had. Their work is simply gorgeous - exactly the style we were looking for to capture our special day. On the wedding day, they made both my husband and I feel at ease, even though we are a bit awkward in front of the camera. They provided excellent guidance on posing and helped us look our best. Fox & Fig was incredibly supportive and patient with us as a nervous couple. We are thrilled with the sneak peeks of our photos and can’t wait for the whole product! I can NOT recommend Fox & Fig enough.

Hi, it’s Sade! The whole reason I’m a photographer is for the ability to take people on adventures and create experiences you will actually remember—not just poses you performed. Let’s not be fooled: being behind the camera can be… uncomfortable. (Trust me, I just got married myself, so I KNOW that 'what do I do with my hands?' panic!). That’s why it will be all about making your day feel spontaneous and tailoring every second to fit exactly who you two are.

Sadie is just the best! She did a couples photoshoot for my husband and I and made it so fun! She is so fun to work with and makes the whole session so fun and comfortable. Our photos turned out amazing and are now hung up all over our house! We couldn’t recommend her more!

Awarded Best of Zola
I'm gonna start this review off in somewhat of an unconventional manor, with a question. How do you describe perfection? I know, philosophical.... But that's what you get when you go with Samantha Jacobs. Perfection. A beautiful blend of classy, edgy, timeless and chic. This not only describes her work but her as a person. She is charismatic, enigmatic, and vibrantly personable to where she effortlessly puts you at ease. She has a way of reaffirming you that shrouds you in a blanket of confidence like a swaddled newborn. By the end of the shoot I never felt so beautiful. I'm talking cover of GQ beautiful. Yeah I said it! So if your trying to decide on the perfect photographer, stop scrolling, put your phone down, walk over to your mirror, look yourself in the eyes and say "stop it!" Then walk back over to your phone, pick it up and call Samantha Jacobs! BOOM! Mic drop!
