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!

We had the absolute best experience with our wedding photographer and videographer! From the very beginning, the booking process was easy and stress-free, and their communication leading up to the wedding was amazing. They were so intentional with every detail and truly went above and beyond to capture every special moment perfectly. On the wedding day, they made us feel so comfortable and natural in front of the camera, which made such a huge difference. They were professional, kind, organized, and genuinely cared about making our day special. We are beyond happy with our final photos and video — they captured our wedding so beautifully and gave us memories we’ll cherish forever. We cannot recommend them enough!

Hi, I’m Carlos Garcia, your dedicated wedding photographer. Capturing moments that last a lifetime isn’t just my passion—it’s my commitment. I'm here to turn your special day into a visual masterpiece. Photography isn’t just a job for me; it’s a privilege to be part of your celebration. I take pride in creating a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere so you and your loved ones can feel at ease in front of the camera. I aim to capture genuine emotions, candid smiles, and the heartfelt moments that make your wedding unforgettable.

Where do I begin?.. It can be an overwhelming decision when it comes to wedding vendors. When we came across Carlos @ Garciapics we were initially intrigued by his location being that he is in our hometown. Upon meeting him the first time, we were greeted with his enthusiastic personality, he came well prepared with portfolio shoots & pricing details. The fact that he was available & willing to travel to our ceremony location, beach wedding photo shoot and reception venue was a major bonus. There is no doubt in my mind we made the right choice to hire him for our special occasion. I feel so blessed and honored to have come across such an amazing photographer. I am grateful for his continued communication after we decided on hiring his services, he kept in touch regularly and responded promptly to any inquiries we had. I had family and friends videoing parts of our ceremony where he could be seen fluffing and fixing our aisle runner. That really touched our hearts, Carlos, we can’t thank you enough. The pictures were sent earlier than expected and we enjoyed reliving the moments captured. I wish I could attach all the memories but will include a few beautiful shots that he put together for us. We highly recommend his photography business! Thanks to your wife as well. God Bless.

I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing them was the perfect choice for our wedding. They captured everything I could’ve hoped for and more. The photos are full of joy, laughter, and love. My favorite is the candid shot of me and my husband laughing during the ceremony. The video is cinematic but still feels personal. They caught little details that I didn’t notice, like my mom fixing my dress and my dad smiling proudly. Even our guests were included in beautiful candid shots. They were professional but also warm and friendly. I felt completely relaxed in front of the camera. The portraits are stunning, and the reception shots are hilarious and full of energy. I’ve already recommended them to friends planning weddings. I will always treasure these memories. Absolutely the best decision we made.

  • Photojournalistic style

Hello! I’m so excited for the chance to work with you. I’m a former teacher who has always had a passion for photography. I started working freelance in 2015 and did a lot of my first jobs in the music industry. I shot Warped Tour a few times and even had one of my promos featured by AP magazine. I quickly realized I loved working with couples the most, and now focus on couple and family portraits and weddings!

Awarded Best of Zola
Thalia saved our wedding. We had to change photographers very last minute and were super worried about hiring someone new. Then we found Thalia and from the moment we had our first intro call with her we had a feeling that everything was going to work out. She was so professional, during our first call she was very well organized and clear about what she would need from us. She took her time to make sure we were a great match and to understand our vision. She was personable and kind, speaking with her felt like talking to a friend right away. She was considerate, during all parts of the wedding she made sure to give us time alone together and we never felt rushed. Even still she constantly captured the most breath taking photos. Lastly she was so much fun! Our guests loved her and thought she had the most wonderful energy. She directed us very well. Looking over the pictures I’ve never felt so beautiful. She even brought her own props to go with our theme for the pictures. A vintage camera and tray. Everything she did was so thoughtful. I wish we could have another wedding just to have her photograph it. You will not regret working with Thalia. We feel so incredibly lucky to have gotten the opportunity.

Storytelling that's crafted with care - Timeless. Classic. true-to-life. My approach to photography is rooted in storytelling. While I absolutely love to capture the big, meaningful moments of the day, I'm equally drawn to the quiet in-between moments that often become the most treasured memories. My approach is designed to help you stay present with each other and your loved ones while I document your wedding day as it naturally unfolds. Of course, I'll provide guidance when needed, but my goal is never to pull you out of the experience—it's to preserve it.

Sarah Fischback Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the start, Sarah was professional, attentive, kind and extremely organized. My sneak peak pictures are absolutely stunning - the photos are crisp, gorgeous and capture the natural beauty of our background as well as myself and my family in a beautiful way. Sarah had a detailed timeline for my entire day and although we got a bit off track, she did her best to get us back on schedule in a warm and kind way. At no point did I feel bombarded, as Sarah has a wonderful calmness, kindness and professionalism about her that allowed me and my wedding party to truly relax and enjoy the day. Sarah captured all the big and small moments, and I am thrilled with the results. I highly recommend Sarah Fischback Photography for any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience on their wedding day. Book her and her team and you will be able to truly enjoy! My family and all my guests were raving about her!! Thank you so much Sarah and team for all your support and incredible work!!!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200

The moments you remember most aren’t usually the ones that were planned. My approach is documentary-driven and unhurried, focused on connection, movement, and the quiet in-between moments that tend to mean the most later. I work best with couples who value presence over perfection and want images that feel honest, intimate, and timeless. Whether your day is big or small, traditional or unconventional, my goal is to create space for you to be fully yourselves — and to tell your story as it naturally unfolds.

Working with Ripple Rain Photography was an absolute dream from start to finish! From the moment we first connected, she was easygoing, approachable, and incredibly professional, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. As a gay couple, finding someone who truly understands and celebrates love in all its forms was so important to us, and Ripple Rain Photography exceeded all our expectations. She brought a warm, inclusive energy that made us feel seen, respected, and celebrated. Ripple Rain Photography was more than just a photographer; she was a genuine part of our special day. She engaged with us and our guests effortlessly, making everyone feel comfortable and capturing authentic, beautiful moments. Her ability to direct us naturally while also letting our personalities shine was a testament to her talent and experience. And the pictures—oh my goodness—the pictures are beyond stunning! Every shot radiates with love, joy, and the magic of the day. From candid moments to perfectly composed portraits, she has an eye for detail and creativity that brought our wedding memories to life. The quality of her work is unparalleled, and her work ethic is impeccable. She went above and beyond to ensure every moment was captured perfectly, even staying late to snap a few last-minute shots we requested. If you’re looking for a photographer who is professional, artistic, and truly passionate about her craft, look no further than Ripple Rain Photography. She is an absolute gem, especially for LGBTQ couples who want someone who “gets it” and makes the experience unforgettable. We cannot recommend her highly enough and will cherish her work forever. Thank you, Ripple Rain Photography, for capturing the best day of our lives so beautifully! Ivan & Tommy Sunderland

HEY! I'm Sean, a Bay Area native who is pretty darn handy with a camera. My full-time photography journey began after losing my job in Art Education and STEM due to the pandemic. That's when I decided to bet on myself to pursue my passion for photography as my primary career. What excites me most as a photographer are the opportunities to meet new people and collaborate with them to create incredible art. I think great photographs requires a strong interpersonal bond with the photographer and the subject and that's why wedding photography is especially fulfilling because it requires so much trust, confidence and relationship building.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am usually very camera shy but Sean made our Engagement photo shoot so fun and easy. He was extremely professional and I am soooo beyond amazed with the outcome of the photos. Sean was present during our proposal and I did not even notice him there! He captured this special moment for us and we now have beautiful photos forever. Looking back at the photos is like reliving the joy in that moment.

Working with Amar for our engagement photo shoot was one of the best photography experiences my fiancee and I have been a part of. He helped us capture the proposal so beautifully with so much attention to detail provided in each shot. His professionalism, adaptability, and the way he captured the moment just as the sun was going down was spot on. Along with this, he helped us capture another shoot at the coffee shop which helped us enjoy some of the more casual moments of our engagement shoot in such a relaxed and casual manner. Thank you Amar for being a big part of our engagement, and looking forward to working with you again in the future!

Obsessed with weddings that FEEL better than they look! I jump in right away to help build out a stress free and relaxed timeline to ensure you truly enjoy your day. With a natural and organic approach to lighting and posing it's important to me that you have images that capture your happiness and all the emotions! Country music, dirt roads, camping, plants and breakfast anytime of day makes my heart happy. I love turning everyday life into an adventure!

Quianna shot my engagement photos and wedding and I could not be happier with my photos and the overall experience! Quianna is an absolute master of her craft and has a serious love for photographing weddings that shines through in every interaction you have with her. My fiancé and I are not the most comfortable in front of the camera but I guarantee if you were an outsider looking in on our engagement/wedding shoots you would think we had done this a million times before! Quianna does an amazing job of providing direction on how to pose and her positive feedback and exclamations like "magic is happening!" made us feel so comfortable. We couldn't believe we actually had FUN taking so much many pictures and its all thanks to her. I could go on and on about how much I love Quianna and 100% recommend her for any photography needs. You will love your photos and also love her spirit! Thank you again Quianna!

Welcome, friends! I'm Anna. My team and I love not only to document love stories but to listen to and learn about our couples as well. It’s super important for us to get to know each other and be on the same page about our couple's vision to create honest, romantic, and playful moments through photos whether it be a portrait session or a wedding. Each love story we learn about inspires us to continue this passion and creative journey of mine to create timeless pieces of art that will be passed down for generations to come. All love stories are welcome. No story is too small, big, near, or far.

Anna was our second photographer, and she was wonderful. We met her on our wedding day, and she immediately made us feel calm and at ease with her kind presence. She went above and beyond to help us get the perfect shots and was such a positive part of the day. She traveled back and forth to Garrapata Beach and our wedding venue to help us get the photos we were looking for. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!

Hi, I am Andy, a wedding and San Francisco City Hall photographer based in the Bay Area. I photograph couples who want their day to feel relaxed and unforced, while still looking polished and elegant in photos. I quietly document the real in between moments and then step in with gentle direction when you need it, so you never feel stiff or posed. From intimate City Hall ceremonies to full day weddings, I help you plan a simple timeline, find beautiful light, and make the most of every location. I personally edit each image with a clean, true to life style so your photos feel timeless and still like you many years from now.

We are so happy we chose Andy for our wedding photos. From the start he was kind, organized and easy to be around. On the day he helped us relax, suggested simple poses and also let us just enjoy the moment. The photos turned out beautiful and very natural. He captured sweet moments with our families that we did not even notice at the time. Turnaround was quick and communication was clear. We would gladly recommend Andy to any couple.
