Heather Morgan Photography was absolutely fantastic to work with for our wedding day! From the very first interaction, Heather's communication was clear, detailed, and thoughtful. She took the time to understand our vision and made helpful suggestions to ensure we captured all the special moments.

Hi! Im Rachel, the face behind EverWild Photography, happily based on the beautiful Central Coast. My approach is simple: I’m here to capture the real stuff.

Cassia Karin Photography

  • Serves San Simeon, CA

Started to study beauty since 1987... Discovered photography in 1999. Studied and practiced wedding photography since 2007. Studied people and relationships since 2008 (college degree in counseling). Started teaching others how to see light, beauty, color, and magical moments since 2017. "The lover is the student of the beloved"

Modern, Romantic and Fun – isn’t that what we want in all wedding photographers. We interviewed several wedding photographers to ensure we picked the right photographer for how we wanted to capture our love on such a special day. Within a couple minutes of talking with Cassia my fiancé and I both looked at each other with a look that was yup this is the one. Cassia spent time getting to know us and we were so happy to see her giving her time at a charity event we attended later in the year after we had booked her. This reconfirmed that she was the right pick. Leading up to the wedding Cassia was great with communication and preparing us for what to expect. On the day of the wedding it had been raining but you wouldn’t know it Cassia and her team were calm and ready to make our day happen regardless of weather. Cassia assured me we would still get the shots we had discussed and that we would creatively figure things out. We have about 20 pictures that she sent to hold us over until the rest are finished and oh my gosh they are so lovely. We have been getting tons of compliments on how she captured our love. Thank you Cassia for getting to know us so that you could capture the most intimate and personal moments as we start our married life together. I can’t wait to see the rest of the photos – we are sooo excited! We highly recommend Cassia and her team of photography professionals!

Hi there, Im Savannah! I discovered my passion for photography at 15 years old, when I first picked up my grandpa’s camera and instantly fell in love with capturing moments. When I'm not behind the lens, you’ll find me enjoying sunsets, jamming out to live music, hanging out with my dog, Paisley, or savoring some authentic Italian cuisine (though Mexican food is a close second!). I cherish the joy of transforming clients into friends and hope we can connect over some of these shared interests. Whether we’re exploring new places or just hanging out in the stunning central coast, I’m eager to bring your vision to life.

Savannah Grace Photography was the perfect wedding photographer for our special day. Her communication style was effective, respectful, and kind. She was incredibly organized, which allowed us to get through all of our wedding party, family, and solo photos quickly during cocktail hour. Savannah made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process and beautifully captured all the emotion and happiness of our wedding. The final photos were absolutely stunning - warm, professional, and exactly the vibe we were going for. Savannah listened to our preferences and helped us through posing and set up of photos so we didn’t feel awkward at all. We are thrilled with the results and couldn't have asked for a better photographer to document our wedding day.

I value your time with your loved ones, and I photograph from that framework. One of my core values is honoring family and friends, and I reflect that as part of my brand and company. We prepare beforehand, so we can move through formal photos with ease, and get you to your dance party sooner! Meaning, photos won't drag on for hours... we've all been to one of those weddings, right? That won't be yours. When you become my client, you become my people. What does that mean for you? I'm there for you, and I have your back. I want to give you gorgeous photos that show the joy of your day, without having to miss all the fun stuff.

Tayler is literally the best! Picking the right photographer was such a big decision for our wedding and we are so thankful we picked Tayler, not only did our engagement pictures come out amazing (we only took them like 8 weeks before the big day to practice) but our wedding pictures were soo awesome. We both have strong, opinionated families and she was able to manage them effectively. Everyone complimented her personality and our pictures aquickly and they were sooo beautiful we couldn’t even pick our favorites. If you need a photographer look no further pick Taylor she won’t disappoint, she is so fun to work with and you get the best shots.

Gage made everything come to life. The big day seemed less stressful with him and his team there catching all the moments that mattered. Deciding whom to trust with the most important day of your life is stressful enough but make it easy on yourself and go with Gage! He’s out of this world and now apart of the family!

Sean was professional, proactive, and communicative from the start, and approached our day with such care, kindness, and intentionality—it was clear he sees his work as a calling, not just a job. He’s not just a photographer—he’s a storytelling artist. He beautifully captured the love, joy, and sacredness of what God was doing in our covenant, and how special it was to share that day with our loved ones.

From our engagement photos to our wedding day and everything in between, he was there every step of the way. He went above and beyond, from venue meetups to thoughtful location scouting, making us feel completely supported and at ease throughout the entire process.

We are Emry Photography, A husband & wife photography team turned photo+cinema collective. We have a knack for turning strangers into friends & we love a good party. We work with the best couples in the world, telling love stories truthfully & without boundaries. We show up when you ask us to & don't leave until your story is told. We may take you off roading or steal you a few minutes for sunset, because we aren't satisfied until we know something couldn't be done any better. Our work is characterized by light, color and story through unguarded moments. We can't wait to tell your story.

I've had the pleasure of working with Emry as a wedding coordinator for years. Behind the scenes, they are AMAZING to work with. They always have the client's best interest in mind, they're flexible with changes, they stay on time with photos (which sadly, is rare these days!), and they go above and beyond to help make the wedding day go smoothly. That's why when I got engaged, they were one of the first people I texted. I knew I’d be able to relax and enjoy the day with Emily and Ryan there, and they exceeded every expectation. They are incredibly organized, supportive from start to finish, and the photos speak for themselves... absolutely beautiful. Their entire team has such a creative eye for detail, and they make everything feel effortless. If you’re not used to being in front of a camera, they guide you every step of the way, from how to stand, where to put your hands, and even making sure family photos look cohesive (no sunglasses, no phones in pockets, etc.). My husband also had a dream picture he wanted taken with his motorcycle, and the dedication they put into getting the perfect shot is unmatched haha I can’t express how grateful I am to the Emry team. They played such a huge role in making our day feel seamless, and I’m beyond thankful they were a part of it.

The photographer, Jonathan, and his assistant, were absolutely amazing. They arrived early, were flexible and really accommodating to our vision. They also really hustled! They took advantage of every spare moment they had to get additional photos, and kept us on schedule super tightly. They even carried around things like bottles of water for me (the bride) as we took lots of photos in the hot upper floor of the venue. Many guests also mentioned how beautifully the photos turned out. However, we did have an issue in which, due to an injury to the editor's hand, we did not receive our photos in the agreed-upon timeframe. Had we been informed of this delay ahead of time, we would not have had any issue just waiting a bit longer. The main concern was that we weren't alerted of this delay until after the initial deadline had passed. We did request a discount due to this, which they accommodated. And the photos did still turn out amazing!

I’m Kirstin! An emotionally driven, film-forward wedding photographer based in the desert Southwest. I work with wildly-in-love couples who want their wedding to feel like them: artful, offbeat, deeply intentional. I photograph elopements and micro-weddings with a storytelling lens- capturing not just how your day looked, but how it felt. My work blends digital + 35mm film to preserve the honest, unposed, heart-full moments in all their textured, tear-filled, windswept beauty. My couples tend to be nostalgic, a little nontraditional, and full of feeling. If that’s you- you’re in the right place.

Awarded Best of Zola
We met Kristin at a June 2025 wedding where we provided the flowers, and we were blown away by her work. Her photos are stunning - full of emotion, joy, and all the little in-between moments that make a wedding day unforgettable. She has such a gift for capturing the real feel of the day. As someone who works with a lot of wedding vendors, I can honestly say Kristin is a true gem. If you want memories that feel timeless and beautiful, she’s the one. Wholeheartedly recommend - 10/10!

We are thrilled with the work Rivelle Media did for our engagement shoot and I highly recommend them to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

  • Serves San Simeon, CA

I'm a digital and film Wedding Photographer in Los Angeles, CA. I'm trilingual and multicultural -- and it's my favorite thing about me. I will travel Southern California for your love story, from San Diego to LA, to Santa Barbara. My style is documentary and photojournalistic with a bit of an editorial and creative charm. I do not bend and sway with the trends of the current day, instead I focus on your unique wedding day to capture timeless imagery. As the moments unfold before me, I will help tell your story. I want you to look back on your images and be able to still feel the emotions within them for decades to come, truly.

I’ll be honest… when planning my wedding, something I was very nervous about was my wedding photos. I am a very camera shy person and was anxious about being the center of attention when it came to my wedding day. But working with Fatima made it so easy and seamless! Initially we didn’t plan on doing engagement photos, but Fatima includes them in her wedding package and they turned out great! My husband and I didn’t have much experience in front of the camera and it helped us break the ice and be more comfortable with photos when it came to the actual wedding day. Fatima really takes the time to make sure you are comfortable and yourselves, which we both really appreciated. From the introductory video call to the emails and texts leading up to the wedding day, we felt supported and confident in our photographer and vendors. The actual day itself was a piece of cake for us, even in front of the camera!

From the moment we booked LA Digital Photo [ Photo Video DJ/MC Photo Booth ] for our wedding, we knew we were in good hands. The communication and support they provided throughout the entire process was amazing - they gave us clear direction every step of the way. On the day of our wedding, their photography and crowd work was truly top-notch. At one point, the photographer spontaneously loaded up photos he had already taken during the reception to share with all of our friends and family - it was an unexpected and beautiful surprise that everyone loved! All of our guests were fascinated by the amazing pictures he captured of them. I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical at first since they fit within our budget, but my goodness, they exceeded all of our expectations. You will not regret booking LA Digital Photo [ Photo Video DJ/MC Photo Booth ] - they are truly amazing and will make your wedding day even more special!

We couldn't be more thrilled with the exceptional service provided by our photographers! From the moment they arrived, punctual and ready, they went above and beyond to ensure every moment was captured flawlessly. Not only did they have an eye for the big picture, but they also attended to the smallest details, like fixing Anthony's tie or assisting Ada with her dress buttons, making sure everything was picture-perfect. Communication was seamless throughout the entire process. They were attentive, responsive, and truly invested in understanding our vision. Additionally, We were amazed by how quickly they delivered sneak peeks the very next day, allowing us to relive the magic instantly (and honestly every time someone asks how the wedding was). Even though they're based in Texas, we would not hesitate to rebook them for any future events. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for their clients make them stand out in the industry. Thank you for making our special day even more memorable! 5 stars without a doubt.
