I’m so glad you’re here. Really. My name is Katie Griffith, I’m 25 years old, living in the gorgeous mountains of Utah. Although it gets so cold and snowy here, you really can’t beat the Utah outdoors. The mountains feel like my second home. Ive been married to my best friend for over 3 years now, and our lil pack consists of our baby girl and our Golden Retriever. These three are my whole world! Honestly, I never knew this level of happiness existed before they came into my life. Ive been photographing weddings and elopements for 5+ years now, and I love what I do! I couldn't imagine doing anything else! This is truly my dream job.

Katie was the best choice ever and the most amazing wedding photographer. We couldn't have asked for better wedding photos! She was so organized and energetic day-of - all of my family members commented how great she was to work with. She made everything run very smoothly. I was able to run a million questions by her ahead of time regarding the timeline and other details, she always made herself available and was super responsive. I am absolutely obsessed with our wedding photos, she did an amazing job and I can't thank her enough!

I’m a wedding vendor, (Someone Said Yes DJ), and have worked with Rachel twice now. She’s awesome. What’s important to me is a few things. 1 - fun to work with. It’s a serious team effort to rock a wedding. Everyone has to be positive and on point. 2 - guest interaction has to be upbeat and professional. The photographer communicates with the guests to line up the photos. This has to be done with a great attitude and with professional instruction 3 - photos have to look amazing. This is what it comes down to. I love working with Rachel and am pretty confident you and your guests will feel the same. And don’t forget, your photos will be beautiful.

Aryk was friendly and responsive. We had an engagement shoot with him and our dogs, and he was wonderful! On the day of our wedding he showed up with a wonderful presence and put us at ease. We gave him a shot list of family photos and he executed it perfectly. He captured all of the important moments both planned and impromptu. He even taught us how to pin a boutonniere when it proved more complicated than we had expected. Our wedding photos are absolutely incredibly and we will cherish them for the rest of our lives.

Rebecca y Las Otras

5.0

South Pasadena, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves San Mateo, CA for additional fees

I am a documentary wedding photographer -- I'm all about capturing real moments. In my photographs, I’m always shooting with an eye for color, light, and dynamic shadows. I integrate these technical aspects with my background in film, literature and storytelling so with every wedding, I create a series of documentary photos that recreates the authentic narrative of a day. I’m always chasing the candid, the emotional, even the un-noticed everyday details; things that make you do a double take, little moments that make your heart swell.

Awarded Best of Zola
I showed my best friend some of Rebecca’s work when we were searching for photographers and she marveled that the folks in Rebecca’s photos “feel so much more like real people than other shoots like this.” That precisely captures Rebecca’s work + energy and confirmed our decision to work with her! We worked with Rebecca for our elopement ceremony and our tea ceremony and it was truly a special experience. Rebecca made an huge effort to know and support us as a couple before the event, which helped us trust that she would be there to capture all the right moments and then some! Our family and friends all loved her and we got many questions about how we knew her and if she was a friend of ours (she is now!); this really speaks to her kind, open, and genuine presence. She moved the event along while also treating everyone with respect and compassion. We already knew that her work was incredible and we couldn’t be happier with our own results. We cannot recommend Rebecca enough! You’ll get beautiful, soulful photos and the chance to have an amazing human in your life if you book her!

I am ALL about the vintage vibes when it comes to my style, music, and all my most favorite things. I’m so drawn to capturing that nostalgia when I’m editing and photographing you.

Bellingham, WA
  • Photojournalistic style

I grew up in the PNW which means I have a deep love for the dark and moody forests and cold and foggy beaches. When I am not taking photos I spend my time running in the mountains, exploring the PNW with my family and lets be honest… walking the aisles of Target with a coffee in hand.

Alicia second shot a wedding with me and she was such a joy to work with! She is easy going and was so helpful throughout the day. Alicia also has an eye for detail and helped me capture moments I wouldn’t have been able to capture on my own. I would highly recommend her to other photographers looking for a second shooter!

I am lucky; I get to do what I love for a living, have a ton of fun doing it, and meet a lot of great people along the way. It's a bonus that I get to also travel a lot for it as well. I hope to always bring that enthusiasm and fun to every wedding as well. I tell myself before every wedding to treat it like it was my very first. I do only weddings, and I only do 30 per year. This lets me focus on my couples and their weddings, and to tell their stories completely. Over 400 weddings spanning 12+ years. And I have never missed a one. Not even late. I may not take myself too seriously, but I take my commitment to my couple seriously.

I like to think of myself as a lil bit southern, lil bit punk, and a whole lotta rock-n-roll. I’m a PBR lover, hardcore show corner dweller, disco ball queen. You’re going to hear me say, “hell yeah, brother” more than twice, Dale Earnhardt is an icon, and Dolly Parton is royalty. You'll love me if you're a little trashy, always classy, badass, sometimes chic, forever romantic. Unwedding, editorial, nontraditional, offbeat, colorful, joyful, film-inspired, and disco vibes always. If you like, I'll wear a rainbow suit, I'll definitely dance with your mom, and I will always be a champion for you and your lover.

Kathleen is not only an incredible artist but an incredible person. She is incredibly thoughtful and has an amazing eye for documenting her couples in a unique and creative perspective. Kathleen is a delight to work with and her couples absolutely love her. Not only for the art she creates, but her couples know they will have the best time working with her. Kathleen makes you feel like an instant friend, and it's because you are! I absolutely recommend Kathleen.

Lakeland, FL
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves San Mateo, CA for additional fees

I’m a Sunshine State native, a Pisces, and a lover of the outdoors. Photography is my favorite way to connect with people. The ability to freeze a memory to look back on for years at a time is what kept me wanting more. I am forever in awe that taking photos allows me to create art, while also giving people stories to reflect on down the line.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot thank Sufia enough, for the beautiful photos that I will cherish for a lifetime. I was so nervous to take photos, as I hate having my photo taken at all, that I delayed it for so long. Now, I wish I hadn’t! I’m just seriously blown away, Sufia made me feel like a model! And she was able to capture the love we have for one another in every photo. Not only is she obviously gifted with a talent to really capture people at their most beautiful, but she is such a wonderful person to I have to say I can’t recommend Sufia Huq Portraits highly enough. She has photographed so many important milestones for my family but she truly rose above and beyond all of my expectations as a wedding photographer. I initially hired Sufia for my engagement photos but after seeing how perfect they turned out, I knew she was the only person I could trust with my wedding! On the day of my wedding it truly felt like everything was going wrong. It was raining. I got second degree burns on my chest from a steamer. I had vendors threatening to leave and the catering company stealing my food. The ONE thing that eased the stress of that day was my incredible photographer. Despite how stressed I was, Sufia managed to bring me back into the moment and to capture timeless portraits of my wedding day with my husband, closest friends, and family. When I look back through the photos of my wedding day (which I do often because I’m obsessed), I don’t think about all of the craziness. I think about those precious moments Sufia captured for me. Sufia was more than just a photographer that day. She was a cheerleader. She was a hype woman. She was a friend. She was more than just accommodating. She was flexible. She was dependable. She was KIND. Sufia is an amazing human being with an amazing talent. A wedding day is a huge deal. Sufia Huq Portraits will not disappoint in quality or in kindness.

Someday, years from now, someone close to you will ask about your wedding day - someone that may not have been able to be there, or a new friend or family member who you have welcomed into your life. As you sit on your couch and reminisce while sipping on a cup of coffee, rather than just telling them about your wedding day - I want you to be able to show them. Photographs have an amazing ability to freeze special moments in time. I want to do that for you.

Julia was a complete joy to work with for our engagement photos and then wedding! From the day we met I knew my (then) fiancé and I would be able to relax and be comfortable in front of her camera. She was so much fun to work with and had us in beautiful but still comfortable poses/positions. Her and her husband shot our wedding and they were so patient throughout hectic family photos. We can't recommend Julia enough!!

Yadira is a Bakersfield native that was raised by immigrant parents. She fell in love with love at a young age through art, music, & poetry. From that inspiration, Yadira always wanted to create art with love as the central theme. She began doing photography at the age of 14 and was mentored by local published and award winning photographers for 3 years. By the age of 17, she moved to North Hollywood where she was taught and mentored by high end fashion photographers who worked for Vogue, Vanity Fair, Style Magazine, Elle, and more.

What I love about Ninety Nine Photography is that it is more than just one experience. They do all of the big moments and the short sweet moments of our lives. My wedding would have not been the same with another photographer, simply for the fact, that Yadira listened to what we really needed for our big day. A great choice indeed!

Hi, I'm Joni! I've been photographing couples for over 10 years now and I just can't seem to get enough of it! My warm, bubbly personality always seems to keep EVERYONE in good spirits throughout the wedding day! I’m a calming force when things start to get stressful and ready to keep the energy up to dance the night away together! Sometimes wedding days don't go exactly as planned. I’m extremely flexible and prepared to provide expert, judgment-free guidance to help you pivot and get right back to having the time of your life!

Hiring Joni was one of the best decisions my wife and I made for our wedding day! She is super helpful, very attentive to detail, totally professional, and a ton of fun! Her energy really made us both feel at ease on a day that could've been full of nerves. Our wedding was five years ago and we still look at Joni's beautiful photos of the day regularly. I can't say enough great things about her and her work. If you're looking for someone who will bring a beautiful energy to your big day and capture it perfectly, Joni is the photographer for you.

As many millennials do, we met on one of those phone dating apps (eh hem.. Tinder..) and had an instant connection! It didn't take long for Korey to make things "official" and asked Diana if she would be his girlfriend. Of course she said 'yes!' and it was a whirlwind after that. We adopted an adorable blue nose pittie, moved in together, and started a business! Now here we are, 6 years later - chasing our dreams and building a career together as a MARRIED COUPLE!! (and we also have another pup!).

As a florist I work with many different photographers but Diana and Korey for are always the first ones I recommend when a couple is seeking a photographer or videographer. Diana is an absolute joy to work with. She is extremely organized, easy to communicate with and produces a huge variety of stunning photography for her clients. Korey's films are equally beautiful and professional. They will help keep you on schedule, make you look stunning, and capture every important moment all while making you feel like you're just spending time with good friends. If you are looking for a down to earth, professional, easy to work with and flawless photographer/videographer look no further than Diana and Korey.

My portfolio is a canvas that dances with diversity – a rich tapestry woven from both film and digital techniques. Embracing new trends and technologies, I blend the nostalgic allure of film with the precision of digital artistry, resulting in a mesmerizing fusion that speaks to the modern soul. Whether it's the classic charm of analog or the cutting-edge allure of pixels, my work resonates with a richness that only true connoisseurs can appreciate.

Anna was an exceptionally on-point photographer who really cared about making our day special. We were very happy with the photos that came out, as were our chosen family and friends who attended!! She was very communicative, helpful, and engaging with us as a couple. She made sure that we were happy with everything and worked around our particular requests--she generated a specific schedule for us that made the day run smoothly and easily and I wouldn't have asked for anything better!! It was truly a perfect day. Would highly recommend her to all my friends! Thank you, Anna!!

Our first meeting with Erika was over Zoom, which was so convenient, and we knew almost immediately that she was the person we wanted to spend our wedding day with! Erika has a bright, calm energy which is what any bride needs on her big day. Sarah was so chill and sweet. Together, Erika and Sara were one stellar duo! We cannot say anough good about them. We received a sneak peek that night and and extended sneak peek before our honeymoon! We were able to request edits, but the pictures were so great, the only edits I really requested were silly things like fixing my worn lipstick!

We have absolutely loved working with Brad so far! I had a specific vision in mind when searching for a wedding photographer. We were searching for a mix of documentary-style shots that felt timeless, and artistic flair that felt modern and "cool". The Dreamers Eye is just that. I shared my Pinterest board with Brad before we did our engagement shoots and the photos we got back far exceeded our expectations. Our photos are literally Pinterest perfect and I couldn't be more proud to display them anywhere and everywhere. He allowed us to share our own creative ideas for shoots, locations, and poses while also taking direction so we didn't feel like we were completely running the show. We got a couple preview photos the next day after both shoots with the remainder of the photos within the following week. His prices are extremely reasonable for what we've received. The only complaint we have is that we got so many gorgeous photos back it took us days to narrow down to one favorite for our save the dates and a few favorites for our photo book! We have gotten so many compliments from everyone who has seen our engagement photos and we are so excited to have Brad shoot our upcoming rehearsal dinner and wedding! To any couples looking for a fantastic, artistic, professional, timeless-yet-trendy photographer: look no further. I wholeheartedly believe working with The Dreamers Eye is the best investment you can make during your wedding season!

Hey all you cute love birds!!! I am a Boise area photographer, BUT I LOVE to travel and would absolutely kill to travel for you! Okay, not literally kill but ya know. I would love love to travel for you! I am a wedding photographer, who specializes in elopements and intimate weddings! Do I still offer more traditional big weddings? HELL YES. My business is all about creating exceptional experiences! I want to make sure your day is so special, and that you get the images of your dreams! I try to stray from the traditional, and go for more fun, unique experiences! If you're looking for that, let's get this party started!!

I had seen Jordan's photos on instagram and fallen in love with their aesthetic. I've been in traditional posed wedding photos as part of the wedding party and family in the past and I just never look like myself in them. I cannot pose and get very self-conscious if I know my picture is being taken. But having candid moments from the day really meant the world to me and that is what really resonated with me in Jordan's style; the documentary feel. Beyond this, there is this incredible eye for lighting and angle and capturing just the right moment that this duo (because it is Jordan and her husband, Trent) brings that I didn't find in any other portfolio I went through when looking for a photographer. She was super patient and understanding when walking me through the process on our introduction and every other subsequent call leading up to the day. We weren't going to be using engagement photos for the traditional announcements, but I had this idea of a wonderful series of photos at this location on the island where we were having the wedding that we could have as kind of our own celebration of our engagement and they were instantly on board and agreed to come out the day before to do those photos at that time. It ended up being a really lovely time for us 4 to bond and get used to each other so I highly recommend doing some kind of engagement photo session even if you're a photo-averse person like myself and the thought of doing more photos seems like the last thing you want to do. Jordan and Trent are so calm and relaxed that it made it really easy to be natural around them. And then on the day they were absolute rockstars. We were, as is surprising to maybe no one but us, running super late and they very gracefully helped manage our extended families and the venue to keep the pressure off us while still getting everything done they could. We showed up to the venue with 20 minutes to the ceremony and we somehow managed to get all our family photos (with toddlers and blended modern family combinations in the mix) and still be only 5 minutes late on the ceremony start. Then we snuck away for sunset photos and that ended up being this absolutely beautiful time we got to spend together during the reception, not awkward at all. And I truly think that's because of how natural and talented this duo are at their jobs. They were like the most lovely and helpful guests at the wedding, truly like having friends who are photographing the day for you. They made the day exactly what I hoped for, this beautiful, cherished time spent with family and friends in a magical place celebrating being all together and I cannot imagine my wedding without them there. I don't have the full album yet, but I do have the engagement photos and an absolutely breathtaking sneak peek of the day and they are so beautiful I almost don't believe it. Hopefully I won't need another wedding photographer (hahahaha) but if I do need family photos for the future they will be my first call.

Hi friend! Grace here. I’m from a small town in south-central PA, where I was raised on the great outdoors, drive-in movies, & board games. My husband is my best friend & we have an adorable toddler keeping us on our toes! We're all about Jesus, our people, traveling, coffee shops & our two Aussies. I’m a big advocate of seeing new places, deep talks under the stars & being near the mountains any chance I can get. I believe that marriage begins with a promise & a lifetime of memories follow after that. My clients are my friends & I feel privileged to begin this adventure with you!

Booking Grace was the best thing we did for our September 30th wedding (besides getting married of course). We connected instantly... and that is speaking on her bubbly, comforting, and caring personality. My husband and I have never been in front of a lens prior to engagement photos & our wedding, and after seeing our photos you would think we were SUPER MODELS (not kidding). Her work is absolutely breath taking, 99% of my wedding photos look like they came straight out of a magazine... the other 1% she caught some of the BEST, hysterical, memories that came from lots of alcohol, pizza, and the dance floor which we are very grateful for. I rate her and the team she brought 20/10 and will be booking her again, and again, and again for all major life events we want pictured forever. BOOK HER NOW!

I married my husband the day I met him & I’m thankful to say that he’s still my favorite person after all these years of marriage! As you can imagine, it was a non-traditional wedding!

I would absolutely hire Nicole with Exposure Creative Side again! She was fun and easy to work with. Our wedding was small and had little touches of hand made elements and she made sure to capture them and show off details often missed. Nicole was recommended by my wedding planner and she put me in contact with her. I am so happy I was in her care. Nicole and I had a consultation to discuss the timeline of events, must have shots, and on the day of the wedding, even as hiccups occurred, she carried on and was able to take amazing venue set-up, and guests arrival.

We were really happy to work with Norbert, he was always responsive, flexible and very attentive to our questions. He was very professional and friendly to us at all times. Plus, he gave us some great recommendations around the area that we hadn't even heard of! We have never really had pictures taken of us before in a romantic setting by a professional before, that alone was pretty intimidating for us. Norbert made the entire photo experience a lot less intimidating for us to go through, the pictures came out perfect in the end! Overall, we had a great experience and will definitely recommend him to anyone marrying in the future in need of a photographer.

Hi! I'm Emily! Mom to 3 kids, two rats named Frodo and Sam and a bearded dragon. I like my couples like I like my pets - just slightly unconventional. Dress fluffer, timeline-keeper, family wrangler, prone to squealing over a perfect ray of sunshine- I'll dance with your grandma, cry during your vows, and make you laugh at inappropriate moments. You're a badass and deserve the space to express yourself and your love EXACTLY as you are, no holds barred. Say goodbye to not knowing what to do with your hands, fake smiles in photos, and stiff posing that *just doesn't feel like you*. LGBTQIA+ and looking for a safe vendor? I gotchu!

Emily was great to work with for our wedding. She met with us ahead of time to discuss what we were looking for, travelled to Baltimore for our wedding, and had great suggestions for locations/poses that felt (and looked) natural to us. Emily has a much more natural/candid style of photography than standard wedding photography. Edited photos came pretty quickly, despite it being peak wedding season. We love our photos and are still enjoying them years later!

I believe that every love story is the best story, and I am passionate about telling those stories through photography. My goal during every session is to create such a fun experience that my clients relax into each other and open up in their natural state. I see people as radiant, inside and out, especially when in their relaxed and happy states. My goal is always to deliver not just a service, but an experience that lets my couples see and feel how extraordinary they truly are.

Miranda was referred to us by good friends of ours. I saw their engagement shoot pictures and they were all amazing. Miranda has the ability to make even the most akward/camera shy (aka me) feel so comfortable and have it not translate in the photos. She has a great editing style, I didn't want to overly bright washed out look. Our pictures were rich with color, and just moody enough. After our engagement shoot and being very happy with the photos we booked Miranda for our wedding. Fast forward to March 2021 and our original venue extending their closure, we ended up re-planning our wedding in 3 weeks. Miranda was kind enough to create a special package to accommodate our short micro wedding. All of our pictures turned out amazing! Highly recommend Miranda for any photography needs.

I'm a student at Rogers State University in Claremore pursuing degrees in biology and chemistry. I love science, but I've struggled in recent years with what career path I'd like to take. I've recently decided that my soul truly needs a career that fuels my creative side. I absolutely fell in love with photography when I got my first camera in 2018. I took TONS of photos for fun. ALL. THE. TIME. However, I took a little bit of a break to focus on school before deciding to pick up the hobby again, but I have since decided I want to pursue photography full-time once I graduate next May!

Kamryn went above and beyond to help our wedding go smoothly! She helped coordinate the bridal party pictures as well as helping to get anything I, Clara, needed for our wedding! She was very insightful about locations for the pictures! She communicates very well. She was willing to meet to up to discuss wedding details before the wedding! Her photographs are excellent!

I want the photos of my wedding that I don’t have –; that capture the moments of affection between our family members; that remind us of the little details and big feelings of that day. I want the photos of my father-in-law walking my wife down the aisle, six months before he unexpectedly passed away. Those photos don’t exist. Instead, I have a handful of blurry, poorly edited images, the half-hearted efforts of an amateur photographer who didn’t yet know what he was doing with a camera. At that time I didn’t know the value of a professional wedding photographer, so I didn’t make the investment and it’s one of the biggest mistakes I’ve made.

Having worked with Adam for the past 7 years, it is safe to say he has made the top of my vendor list for photography. Aside from offering classic, iconic and true to life wedding photography, he is simply a delight to work with. As a planner, there are two hallmarks of a great photographer (in addition, of course, to quality work) -- people skills and timing. Adam has the market cornered on both. Aside from partnering with me on crafting a quality timeline so that every shot it covered, perhaps my favorite part of working with Adam is hearing every aunt and mother-of-the-bride try to adopt him. But it doesn't stop there. Be it groomsmen, bridesmaids, or that one tricky family member, everyone drops their guard and falls in love with him before the day is done. The result is authentic and honest wedding photos that freeze those special moments in time. I don't give vendor recommendations lightly, but Adam Kent is first on my list any day of the week.

Such a delight to work with Saumya! We did a fall couple photoshoot. Due to the covid-19 pandemic, other than a quick photoshoot during our wedding, we hadn't done photos as a couple before. My partner is camera-shy and she made sure we both felt comfortable to be ourselves during the shoot. She is very attentive to your vision for the shoot, and creates a warm environment where the shoot feels like fun. Our pictures turned out great!

Weddings are celebrations that are full of emotion and romance all in a highly dynamic environment. Wedding photographs are timeless and irreplaceable so as a photographer, I feel I have a great responsibility at hand. I try my best to work with clients on their needs, provide flexible coverage hours and I work within their budgets. I am drawn to those unguarded candid moments. I attempt to portray an artistic feel that reveals feelings of emotion onto the viewer. Be it a gaze, a beaming smile, tears of joy or a blurred image to depict movement my goal is communication. It is these moments along with many others I feel should be captured.

We were so happy with Jose and Carlos. They were organized, prompt, flexible, and of course fantastic artists. Out pictures are fantastic and perfectly in line with our style preferences. Jose directed us with ease and skill making the photo sessions fun and producing great shots. Also, I have to mention how Jose was super helpful on the wedding day. He even noticed that our wedding had gone MIA and that time was running late so he set up our cake cutting for us.

I got my first digital camera at 13 and spent the afternoons capturing flowers in our backyard; ever since it's been my dream to have my own photography business. Photography and writing were the two ways I expressed myself and were their own kind of therapy for me. And now, I use photography as a type of therapy for my clients. I believe there is a power in the vulnerability of being and feeling seen. So, photography is my tool to help others feel truly seen and celebrated. It's so important to make everyone feel this way, especially on their elopement/wedding day :)

Hailey and I met at a retreat where I had the opportunity to get to know her working style + art + personality. What you need to know about Hailey, beyond her incredibly crafted images, is that she is a kind, gentle, and intuitive human. Hailey has a remarkable ability to listen + to discern the needs of those around her. She takes the time and has the care to get to know her subjects in a way that allows them to truly feel seen. I believe that Hailey uses this vulnerability superpower to create the beautiful images you see in her portfolio. When you hire Hailey you will be left in awe at not only the photographs you recieve but also the beautiful impression she leaves on you heart.

  • Serves San Mateo, CA for additional fees

My parents don’t have professional photos of their wedding. It’s ironic being that I photograph weddings for a living. Long story short, my Grandfather hired a distant cousin as their wedding photographer, his customer service was beyond subpar and pricing was vague. He eventually went out of business and apparently took the photos down with him. It’s a sad story but it is something that fuels my mission as a wedding photographer. To give my clients a memorable experience from the first Zoom meeting to the delivery of their gallery and beyond.

We had the best experience working with Nick (and Mackenzie) on our big day. I cannot recommend Nick Cruz Photography enough! All of our photos are so beautiful and exceeded our (high) expectations. We could not have asked for better photos or a better photographer. Getting married during COVID meant a lot of last-minute changes in plans and Nick was so supportive and willing to work with us to make sure we captured all aspects of the day safely. And he is so personable - we had a total of 13 people at our wedding, so it was a very small group, all immediate family, but he fit right in! He was super organized and had a shot list to make sure we didn't miss any typical wedding photos. His website for photo delivery makes it so easy to view/download photos and he got us some sneak peaks super fast. Overall, we had such a great experience with Nick and plan to use him for all other big life events that require photography! (He also did our engagement - those photos were amazing too! He worked with my husband to pop out of the trees and capture the actual proposal.)

Here's what you should know: First, it's pronounced Sokol like 'vocal'. We're Polish... like kraut-and-pierogi-at-every-family-gathering-Polish. Second, we're a husband and wife wedding photography duo that believes it's the little things that make the story come to life. From the knowing glances across a crowded room to the hand squeezes when you're about to walk down the aisle, you can trust us to capture your most romantic, candid moments.

Sav has captured our engagement, wedding, maternity, and family photos so far. Her pure skill and talent are unmatched. She’s professional and so down to earth. Hands down the best investment to hire Sav. The memories she captures are PRICELESS.

I specialize in weddings and boudoir. I view those two as the most personal and intimate types of photography and you should have someone who you can trust to be there for you and make the uncomfortable, comfortable!

  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves San Mateo, CA for additional fees

I’m Natalie, a Portland, Oregon wedding photographer. My passion is telling real stories, and I’ve been documenting weddings and families for over a decade. I’m here to photograph ear-to-ear smiles, tight bear hugs, wild dance moves, and all of the fleeting moments that show us just how hard humans love one another. In the over four-hundred weddings I’ve documented, I’ve come to realize one thing: we hold onto memories and cherish photos because they allow us to remember a time when we were enveloped with a special kind of love.

I am so grateful to have had the pleasure to work with Natalie twice! The first time I met her she photographed my friend's wedding in Hood River and when I saw the wedding photos it truly felt like the representation of that day. filled with joy and love. After searching endlessly for a photographer i was recommended to Natalie twice and when we got to speak she asked such intentional questions about our love story, what photography means to us, and photos that mean so much to us. the conversation moved me and i knew i wanted a photographer that could capture the emotion and joy of that day.. and she was sure she did. She understood we didn't really want overly styled/editorial photos and wanted more time to spend with our loved ones. Our French-Mexican wedding was beautiful and I'm so grateful that Natalie captured such beautiful moments. She was a joy to work with and I hope we get to work with each other for other life events in the future.

Hi hi! My name is Nevaeh and I'm so honored that you have taken the time to look at my work! I am based out of both Joshua Tree, CA, and Albuquerque, NM. I am originally from New Mexico, but I moved to SoCal when I married my dreamy Marine. I have a cutesy pup names Rocky who is energetic and cuddly. I love watching Gilmore Girls and trips to the beach. I love Jesus and worship music is my jam (along with Disney music, Olivia Rodrigo, One Direction, and Shawn Mendes).

Nevaeh is not only an amazing photographer, but she’s an amazing person who is always smiling and working hard to capture the right moment. She photographed our wedding in 2020 (during Covid). It was a small outdoor wedding. She captured some amazing photos and always did so with a smile. She has so many great ideas and made it so easy to pose. She was great to work with and would recommend her to anyone in search of a photographer from family photos, senior photos to weddings. Nevaeh is your photographer!

My name is Derrica and I’m 31 years old. Photography has been my passion since a child. Some days I still can't believe that I get to do this as my job.

With a photojournalistic approach, my style reflects all of the emotions that your wedding day will bestow upon you and your loved ones. I love what I do and with my confidence and creativity, I’m sure you will too!

Lauren Pippin Photography

Denver, CO
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves San Mateo, CA for additional fees

I love exploring the world! THAT is why I love capturing love stories from all parts of the earth. I was living in New Zealand for a few years when I met my husband, Tyler. He shares the same love of wild adventure as I do. Together we have taken roadies through NZ, Australia, Indonesia, West Papua, Thailand, and Papua New Guinea. We have been married for almost three years now and live in Denver together in a little apartment. You can find us flipping vans into campers, bargain hunting at the local thrift store, or literally anywhere in the mountains on the weekend.

We're beyond grateful for Lauren Pippin, who brilliantly captured both our engagement and wedding in Colorado this September. Lauren is a true artist, her creativity shining in every frame, turning moments into timeless memories. Her professionalism and attention to detail made the entire process seamless. Lauren's infectious energy put everyone at ease, resulting in genuine, heartfelt moments beautifully documented. The way she weaves our love story through her lens is truly special. For unmatched talent, creativity, and professionalism, Lauren Pippin is the photographer you're looking for. Thank you, Lauren, for making our special moments unforgettable.
