Eivan's made our wedding day wonderful! Alexander Schmidt was our photographer, and our videographer was Noah. We got our pictures back sooner than expected, and they suited the exact style we had hoped for. Communication was great, photos were easy to access, and we were allowed free download for so many pictures! One family portrait had one person not looking, otherwise people were smiling and looking in everything. Many people commented on their professionalism as well as their kindness at the wedding. Thanks, Eivan's!

A San Francisco based photographer for joyous individuals who value inclusivity and authenticity. With a documentary style approach, I am dedicated to preserving memories in a way that is fun and easy-going, making your comfort a top priority. I strive to capture meaningful photos in a way that feels true and unique to who you are.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

Jazmín Hayes Photography

San Francisco, CA
  • Photojournalistic style

Artistic storytelling for the fun, kind and adventurous. Hi friend! :) I'm your neighborhood artist, goofy empath, & lover of dogs and human beans. (Name is pronounced Hasmeen, kinda like jalapeño) My goal is to be a source of joy and vulnerability in your life while helping you feel grounded on your big day and ~even more~ grateful for the life you live and the love you choose. 

Awarded Best of Zola
We adored Jazmin and our work with her was so comfortable, joyful, and ultimately resulted in stunning, dreamlike photos. We were seeking low-key, calm vibes for our wedding day, and after meeting with Jazmin, we felt immediately at ease. What initially drew me to Jazmin was her photography, of course, and her adventurous streak and love/appreciation for nature that is reflected in her work. I did not want traditional wedding photos or overly posed editorial shots - I primarily wanted big nature shots, candids, and authentic memories captured. I could tell from her other work on her website, she would be ideal for this. Additionally, I was seeking a photographer who could do film and digital photos, which Jazmin can do (plus polaroids! which I loved). On the practical and professional side of things, Jazmin also really stood out. All of her communication was prompt, thorough, and attentive. There were surveys used to get to know us / our story better and to clarify exactly what we were looking for both the wedding day and our engagement photos. She also met with us on several occasions to talk things through and make sure we were on the same page. This gave me confidence that she not only knew what we wanted in terms of photographs, but she also cared to know as a couple. On a more personal level, Jazmin immediately felt like a friend. She is our people, and we knew we would feel grateful and comfortable having her as a part of our celebration! She is kind, caring, thoughtful, intentional, genuine, and talented - what a combo! On our wedding weekend, she was great company to have AND she nailed it with the photos - couldn't have asked for a better combination.

You deserve to look back on your wedding photos and remember how the day felt — all of your nerves, your laughter, and, of course, your overwhelming joy. Together, we'll tell your story how you want it told, striking a balance between creating gorgeous moments with documentary-style gentle observation.

Awarded Best of Zola
Annalee did such an amazing job on our engagement and wedding photos! My husband and I are both very awkward in front of the camera but our worries quickly faded away because of Annalee's professionalism, kindness, and creativity. Annalee was with us for 12 hours and she kept a smile on her face and did not complain once. She navigated overbearing family members, Facebook Live aunties, and the general chaos of TWO wedding ceremonies in one day. 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. She is so incredibly talented and we wish that we had another big event just so we could work with Annalee again! We were so lucky to have found Annalee as she was one of the best vendors we have ever worked with. If you hire her, you will not be disappointed.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000

Courtney & Jackson are wedding, elopement & family photographers based in San Francisco, California but available for travel worldwide. We go wherever love takes you. Photoflood Studio is a wife + husband team from San Francisco, California. We are wedding photographers servicing NorCal to SoCal and beyond. Photoflood Studio specializes in wedding, engagement, and family photography. We aim to photograph life + love through an honest documentary approach. Our wedding, engagement and family photography is inspired by the beautiful wilderness, the culture of our coastal cities, and wherever you call home.

Awarded Best of Zola
Courtney and Jackson of Photoflood Studios changed our entire wedding experience for the best, and we couldn't be more thankful that we selected them as our photographers. When we started the wedding planning process, it was overwhelming and a little intimidating, especially when we started looking at vendor prices. My husband and I both knew that we wanted to spend the money on a quality photographer because the photos are something we will have forever. When we started browsing, we didn't feel connected to anyone's work until we saw C+J's website. I instantly knew that this is who I wanted, and it didn't take much convincing to get my husband on board. It felt SO good to check photographer off our list early in the game. One thing I loved was that Courtney met us in person to discuss our visions and just to get to know each other before we committed to a contract (it's a big commitment, people!). I emailed her within 48 hours that we wanted to work together, and the rest is history. My husband and I decided we could not afford a videographer, so instead we knew we wanted two photographers. BEST. DECISION. EVER. Courtney and Jackson handled our engagement session and wedding day so seamlessly, it was like they'd been taking our pictures our whole lives! And, we had never had professional pictures taken before! But, I read online that engagement photos are a good warmup and practice for wedding pictures (highly recommend engagement pictures for anyone who is unsure). These two are the epitome of a dream team. We were nervous for our engagement pictures, but they made us feel so comfortable and confident. They also took the time to go to the wedding venue ahead of time and scope out some great locations for our bridal party and newly wed shots. C+J were HUGE proponents to making our wedding day a success. They transformed into photographer/time keepers/event planners - I think they are super heroes!!! Our wedding experience was so flawless with them capturing our special day. We requested a "mega selfie" with us and all our guests, and they made that happen! We snuck off during dinner for the sunset newly wed shots, and they personally drove us around chasing the sunset. It's inexplicable how wonderful these people are. They are so much more than talented photographers, and we are so fortunate to now call them friends. Something else that was really important is that even with all of their photoshoots and other clients, Courtney ALWAYS responded to my emails in a timely manner. She was so on it, and that made me feel really valued and heard. I appreciated that so much, because I was a nervous bride who didn't know what I was getting into. The fact that I always got an email response in a timely fashion was huge brownie points in my book. AND, they send you sneak peeks!! Literally the day after our engagement shoot and wedding day, they sent us a bunch of sneak peeks! There is literally nothing better than getting a taste of your special memories to hold you over until the full gallery is ready. If you are on the fence about photographers, know that your time with C+J of Photoflood Studios will be one of the best parts of your wedding. They want to capture you and your partner as you are, and will never make you feel posed, uncomfortable, or phony. I could write a book about these two and how incredible they made our wedding day. But I'll stop here and just make one final point: Hire them....You will not regret it!!!

Sarah Peterson Photography 

5.0

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our experience with Sarah was absolutely fantastic. From the beginning, communication was smooth and effortless, with prompt responses to emails and even video conferences to discuss details. Our photography package included an engagement photoshoot in addition to wedding photography. The quality of the photos from both our engagement session and wedding day was outstanding. One of the highlights was receiving a few 'preview pictures' shortly after each shoot, allowing us to enjoy some beautiful moments right away. The pricing was transparent, and the payment portal was easy to use, making the financial aspects stress-free. Throughout the process, Sarah provided invaluable advice on shot lists and was incredibly easy to work with when it came to posing. If we had a specific idea or location in mind for a photo, she not only took the lead but also enhanced our vision beyond what we could have imagined. She also emailed us ideas and example photos for different locations for our engagement photoshoot, helping us make our vision a reality. On our wedding day, Sarah took many photos throughout our events, including getting ready in the bridal suite, first looks, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, speeches, and reception. She was excellent at directing our family members to ensure we got all our posed family photos. Sarah also took some beautiful shots of just us post-ceremony. Throughout the dinner and reception, we felt at ease and relaxed knowing Sarah was there capturing every moment. Beyond the professional aspects, our interactions with our photographer made us feel like we were working with a close friend. She always helped us to feel comfortable in front of the camera, despite us being introverted and inexperienced with being professionally photographed. Her support and encouragement throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding were truly appreciated and added to the overall wonderful experience. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a talented and personable photographer for their special day.

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.

San Francisco, CA

My professional background was cultivated in the field of architecture and design. But around 2010, my obsession with photography overcame my passion for architecture and I changed course. Through years of experience as a wedding photographer, I’ve developed a genuine love and appreciation for these emotional events. To me, weddings are emotionally-charged, symbolic celebrations. They often inspire pure expressions, words and feelings from the couple and their family and friends.

Awarded Best of Zola
We found Duy while doing the rounds looking for wedding photographers, and after the fact, I'm confident we found the best person for the job. What I'm most impressed with is the vision he brought to the event based on the time of year, dress code, venues, etc. His direction and attention to detail showed through in the final product, and he was great at listening to one of our half-baked ideas and making it work! Beyond the pictures, Duy's calming presence was helpful throughout the whole experience, from the engagement shoot to the wedding. He's a great communicator and we felt like he was on our team throughout the whole experience. We always felt heard and truly hope to work with him again. Last but certainly not least, he was priced competitively and on the lower end compared to some of the other quotes we received.

Storytelling photography that brings your story to life. There is a story to everything right? There is certainly one to your wedding and even to a portrait session. The in-between moments can be the best moments! Images tell a story and they are there for me to find. This isn’t one image. It is a series of images that provoke emotion and thought. This happens with trust and openness and I know I can only get this if you trust me and I am open enough for you to do that. When there is this intimacy, I can get to the heart of the images and that is when the storytelling photography happens.

From our first introduction call, it was clear that Misti truly cares about the couples she works with. Her prompt, friendly, and personable communication style put us at ease right away. On our wedding day, Misti's photojournalistic approach captured all the real, authentic moments and reactions that made our day so special. The intimate, high-quality images showcase our true selves and all of our beloved guests in such a beautiful, natural way. We are thrilled with the final photos and will cherish them forever.

As a photographer of life, love and beauty, Tara Arrowood does what she loves every day. She captures beauty in all things- people, animals, and spaces. Her main goal? It’s simply to make people happy. She uses her lens to show inner beauty, authentic emotions, and life’s precious/fleeting moments.

Tara offers photography and cinematography services for any sized wedding. Tell her your plans and she’ll create a schedule that includes everything to tell your story!

Awarded Best of Zola
I truly can’t recommend Tara and her team more highly. Not only is she an incredibly skilled and professional photographer who always captures that shot of a moment you never want to forget, she’s also a wonderfully kind, funny, and thoughtful person to work with. We first met when she shot engagement and wedding photos for my husband and I, and for years to come we reminisced about how great she was at taking beautiful photos and also wrangling wild, wiggly little kiddos. She even pitched in at our wedding and with a big smile on her face, bustled my enormous wedding dress — her assistant got a great photo of that! We were thrilled with how our photos turned out, as well as our 5 minute cinematic video which felt like the quality of an epic movie trailer of our special day. We were so happy to see her again for another family wedding years later, and most recently she took stunning and personal family photos with our little one. I’m already conjuring up another reason to work with Tara again because in addition to her gorgeous photos, she’s just a great person to be around.

For some unknown reason I have loved weddings since I was a kid. That’s the first thing. But then… I got married. And that is indescribable. So… if you happen to be here because you have met someone special, and you are making moves, CONGRATULATIONS! You really are in for the ride of a lifetime. So… my first photos? Yup. They were from a wedding! Unfortunately they took the human knee as their subject because I was short, because I was five years old. One auspicious day I brought a camera to a friends’ wedding. I partied. I had a fabulous time. Afterwards they told me I should have said something, my photos were better than the hired pro.

Paul and I have worked together on some seriously complex wedding days. As a planner, I have to know and trust the vendors that come onto the team for wedding day and Paul was nothing short of a dream to work with. Seasoned, professional, and super uber crazy talented... you won't regret adding him to your vendor team!

I fell in love with photography while I was living in Nairobi, Kenya for a few months. When I returned to Penn State, I decided to change my major to photojournalism! I started a portrait photography business in college and continued after graduation. Now, a full time wedding photographer living in San Francisco, I couldn't be more thankful for that trip to Kenya! It led me to my passion and has allowed me to live it out!

We had the pleasure of working with Hannah for our City Hall ceremony day. She was a great communicator and kept us in the loop in regards to timing/location. The way Hannah navigated City Hall was truly incredible - we are still blown away how she got so many photos in one hour! People see our photos & think we rented out the space - but nope, Hannah was somehow able to get all of our photos with no bystanders in the background! She felt like an old friend, and any nerves we had for a) getting married or b) doing such a personal shoot with a stranger disappeared immediately. Thank you, Hannah!

i believe in capturing your day as it unfolds. documenting what is happening not dictating it. making sure those little detailed moments don’t go unnoticed. there is so much beauty to be told when you just let things happen as they will. i study what is in front of me, in real time — the people, the emotion, the light when it hits a certain way and then encapsulate it for you. i am deeply rooted in my feelings and want my images to reflect that as well as reflect the emotion of the day. my hope is that you can look back at your images and relive every loving moment.

Jenna is a true artist and amazing at what she does! The photos she shot for our wedding were way beyond your standard affair and belong in a gallery. She is extremely professional and kept a low profile throughout our big day. Jenna captured not only the obvious moments but also the sweetest in between candids we could never have anticipated and didn't see until after we got our photos back, like a grandmother's hug or the groomsmens' teary eyes during our vows. Hire Jenna for all your photo needs- you will NOT be disappointed!

Hello, I’m Jim Lee — a fine art wedding photographer specializing in authentic documentary storytelling. Over the past 12 years, I’ve photographed 200+ weddings across 50+ national and international destinations, capturing refined compositions and genuine, emotional moments. Recognized as one of Junebug Weddings’ Best of the Best 50 photographers worldwide, I create timeless, cinematic images that preserve not only how your day looked, but how it truly felt — beautifully, honestly, and uniquely yours. It means so much to me to get to help you celebrate your relationship in a way that feels true to who you are.

My wife and I were browsing IG during wedding planning when we saw Jim's photos of another wedding at our selected venue. Viewing those pictures, my wife and I just loved the angles and composition of Jim's photos and knew that Jim would be hard to beat. Something I didn't realize before I got married was how much time you spend with your photographer on your wedding day. I think I probably spend more time with them than I did with my actual wife and groomsmen. Having say that, I was glad that Jim and Ryan were my photographers. They were really cool, funny guys to chat with throughout the wedding and you can tell they were passionate about getting the best photos they can get out of my wife and me. I appreciate they were always want to try out new poses, new angles, and new props so that the pictures stand out. Jim was also a great photographer for our families as he knows Chinese and was able to give out great instructions even to my family members who didn't speak the best English. It was pretty funny too when we weren't quite sure what we were doing during the Chinese tea ceremony and Jim was able to step in and give us some instructions. We got our wedding photos a month after our wedding date and we were not disappointed. Jim's selection of curated photos that he touched up were all amazing and were all worthy to be set as wallpapers on our phones. They were simply more interesting to look than most typical wedding photos we've seen elsewhere. And honestly, even the rest of the photos that weren't touch up or part of the curated batch were amazing to look at.

I am a documentary and commercial photographer based in San Francisco, California, living amongst the fog with my little family that includes a wiener dog named Angus. One of my favorite childhood pastimes was flipping through the thick pages of my grandparents’ wedding album. I can still remember the smell of the leather binding, and the way the photographs curled up at the ends.

Diana is just amazing. We had high expectations based on her stunning portfolio, and she somehow still exceeded them by a mile. She captured so many beautiful photos of us, our family, and all our guests, and somehow did so without ever interrupting a special moment or the flow of the day. She also did an amazing job of capturing both “classic” wedding shots (first look, first kiss, etc.) and more artistic shots and candids (which are so beautiful that we would buy them in a gallery even if we didn’t know the people in them). And she is just a lovely person. We could not recommend her more and hope we’ll have the opportunity to be photographed by her again one day
