Luis Martinez Photography

Santa Ana, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,950

With over a decade of experience, I have developed a sense of which moments to listen for. It's in the subtle glances, the shared, heartfelt laughs, and the tender soft touches- the moments that can go unnoticed. My inspiration is drawn from the people surrounding you on your special day. The friends and family who are present to share this moment with you. To witness happiness and excitement on their faces as you make your entrance down the aisle. The feeling you get when you walk into a room full of people you love.

Luis helped make our photography and wedding experience as smooth as it could possibly be. He has great insights and his own personal guides that helped us navigate through the timing of our wedding. A super accommodating and no rush kind of guy. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer.

  • Starts at $999
  • Serves Santa Ana, CA

I photograph the stories of couples who love big adventures and little details; couples who know the value of embracing old traditions and the thrill of creating their own; couples who believe that their wedding is about more than just a day of celebration, but a lifetime of love. Real love is a big deal. And for the couples that I have the joy of working with, so is their wedding photography. At the end of your big day, other than that new lifelong partner in crime you’ve hitched yourself to, your photos are all that you get to take with you.

Awarded Best of Zola
I would like to express my gratitude to Shevchik Production for their incredible work! They are an extremely responsive and amazing team. Everything went splendidly! We absolutely adore our photos and film. We will definitely recommend you to everyone! Once again, thank you so much for all the hard work!

  • Classic style
  • Serves Santa Ana, CA

My love for photography began as young as 12 but the passion came as soon as I welcomed my first son, Liam. Motherhood is a busy busy life and the camera keeps all the memories fresh. I love, love. Nothing makes me smile bigger than a surprise engagement, or the welcoming of a new baby. I really try to get to know my clients and visualize their lives before I even attempt to capture their story - because that story is what MAKES the shot!

Morgan Wiltse Photo Co. provided exceptional photography services for our wedding. Morgan traveled all the way from California to capture our beautiful photos, including a wonderful engagement session. She takes immense pride in her work and gives you her absolute best.

Awarded Best of Zola
Marisa and Tim are INCREDIBLE! I wanted a colorful wedding and I wanted our photos to look like our day - fun, goofy, colorful, vibrant, full of love and joy - and they absolutely nailed it. A bunch of sepia-toned photos of us gazing into each other eyes with serious faces would have felt extremely fake - no shade to sepia or staring into each others eyes, I think those photos are beautiful (and we did get a couple beautiful serious ones and some black & white ones I love), but the look doesn't feel like us. I feel so seen by our photographers! Their customer service was also top notch - lots of communication and some above-and-beyond special touches that were incredibly thoughtful. You hear so many horror stories of trying to hunt down or communicate with wedding vendors, and there was none of that here. The Petersons are a shining example of great work and great to work with. I highly recommend them if you want beautiful, fun, vibrant photos and a really nice experience!

We cannot recommend Haley enough for your wedding photography needs! We discovered Haley through Instagram and were immediately impressed by her work. From our very first interaction, Haley was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but Haley made the photography aspect seamless. My husband and I are not naturals in front of the camera, but Haley's friendly and calming demeanor put us completely at ease during our engagement shoot. She took the time to understand our personalities and preferences, which really showed in the photos. On our wedding day, Haley was a true professional. She was patient, took initiative when needed, capturing all the most precious moments—from our first look with our grandparents to our private vows. The photos turned out beautifully, and we couldn't be happier with the way she documented our special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
I wish I’d spoke up on being self conscious about my butt, and I didn’t so I have some pictures I probably won’t be sharing, but the pictures we have are pretty, she got everything I wanted during our ceremony, I just wish I had gotten some pictures with my bridesmaids and me in my wedding dress. The ball got dropped on that. Other than that I’m happy with my ceremony pictures, and some of the pictures where I’m facing away from the camera I’m not a huge fan of. My husband loves them though, so that’s good. There was some miscommunication on editing and what not, but over all we got some really good photos.

Amelia is such a kind spirit and genuinely cares about the story she captures on any special occasion. The care comes across in all the photos she’s taken. Not only was she an amazing photographer but she went out of her way to help me with things that I never expected someone who I had just met to help me with.

The photos are so beautiful and I will never stop smiling at them for the rest of my life.

Hi, I’m Bryan! My love for photography started when I was a kid.

I’m calm and easy-going by nature, which means I’ll keep your day running smoothly and stress-free while making sure every meaningful moment is captured one click at a time.

From the moment we booked KenzoClicks for our couples shoot, they were a dream to work with. Their communication was always prompt and they were incredibly attentive to our needs, making us feel comfortable every step of the way. They were also very detail oriented and passionate about their work!

MKT is amazing to work with! We hired them for our wedding in Newport Beach in July 2022. We were able to do an engagement shoot with Ashley and get to know her prior to our wedding. The photos from the hour-long engagement soot were amazing. She asked me for a shot list ahead of time, and also came with her own. She allowed us 2 outfits and helped us with posing the whole time. Ahead of the wedding, she met me at the venue for a walk-through and went over my shot list. Together on our wedding day Ashley and Marcus easily shot over 2000 photos, and they all showed an attention to detail in both posing and capturing candid moments, the focus, lighting, and coloring was all consistent and beautiful, and the touch ups after made them all look even more gorgeous. MKT was everything I could have hoped for after looking so long for professional, on-time, personable, and reasonably priced photographers.

From the moment we first connected, we knew it was a perfect fit. Their passion for their craft was infectious, and their genuine interest in our vision was heartwarming. They took the time to get to know us, understand our hopes for the day, and answer every question, no matter how small. On the wedding day itself, they were on their time sharp. They were like ninjas. They were everywhere and nowhere at the same time, capturing every laugh, tear, and dance move without ever being intrusive. They blended seamlessly into the background, yet somehow managed to be in the perfect position for every precious shot. But it wasn't just their technical skill that blew us away. It was their genuine care and attention to detail. They anticipated our needs before we even knew them. They weren't just vendors; they felt like friends, there to support us and celebrate with us every step of the way. And the results? They were nothing short of breathtaking. The photos are exquisite - vibrant and artistic, capturing every emotion and detail with stunning clarity. They tell the story of our day in a way that words never could, making us relive the magic every time we look at them. The video? It's a masterpiece. It's not just a compilation of clips; it's a cinematic experience, weaving together laughter, tears, and heartwarming moments into a cohesive narrative that pulls at your heartstrings. We've already watched it countless times, and each time, it feels like we're back there, living the dream all over again. Asti and Amir, you didn't just capture our wedding; you captured our souls. You gave us a gift that we will cherish forever, a tangible reminder of the love, laughter, and pure magic of our most special day.

I am a father of two beautiful young kids. I do Weddings/engagements/family because they are fun to me. I don't book myself full because I don't want to lose the magic of capturing someones day, that they spend ages planning. I work with a small trusted team that together has a lot of years experience. I work every shoot to capture the emotion in which you actually felt in the moment. No Ai was used in the creation of this explanation ;)

Well if you've stumbled upon this review, consider yourself lucky that you found Jeff. Jeff was my wedding photographer, and I could not be happier. Not only was he a calm presence on our wedding day, but he also stayed later than expected when our timeline ran behind which I really appreciated. Jeff has an amazing creative eye and put so much effort in to make sure we had the best day. Thank you again Jeff for your hard work and your kindness. My husband and I printed out his photos and enjoy them everyday in our home. We are so lucky we found Jeff and I have recommended him to multiple friends, who have also been happy with his services. He's our go-to photographer for all things now including family photos!!! BOOK HIM if he's available for your date!!!

  • Classic style

  • Serves Santa Ana, CA

A 14-year veteran wedding photographer who has seen it all...and still loves it all. Every moment is unique, and moments are what you really want. Every touch, every moment, every smile, is its own story. I love telling your story from my artistic and unique form of expression, and I make it look good and natural. As if I'm not there, but capturing every second. And not just the poses, but the real, true, authentic moments too. And I promise (grooms, I'm looking at you) to make it fun.

Working with Karl was a dream! He was communicative (we went back and forth on whether we’d want a videographer and he suggested a few things to consider and recommended a colleague for us too), flexible (we kept changing our engagement photo shoot date due to work and he was so accommodating), and cool (I mean he has a satellite phone for his remote shoots, how cool is that!). Such a great mix of encouraging and fun to get us to look natural in the pics. He had a great way of suggesting some poses everyone wants pics of to start, then catch us in between for the most Real shots. Then at the wedding he was perfect at remembering to get all the special ask pictures we knew we wanted, but also all the ones we wouldn’t have thought to ask for. He went way above and beyond on delivering! Karl beautifully captured everything we wanted our wedding to be.. our faith, love, family, friendships, fun… What caught our eye first in scrolling through his website portfolio was how Karl uses the scenery to tell a story with his photography. That meant the world to us because our venue (camp!) was a huge part of our lives and he was able to make this piece of our story so clear through his framing and editing for focus in each picture. Reading the FAQ we were stoked to read Karl say he "would rather have shots of the two of you sharing a moment you can never get back, then a 73rd shot of the candles". We’re not one much for taking pictures, so learning he’d be so intentional about his pictures was encouraging! And, in every single picture we got back, Karl more than delivered on that promise — he caught the twinkle in our eyes, our guests having the time of their lives on the dancefloor, and the spirit of camp, without us even having a thought about picture fatigue. TLDR: 15/10 recommend Karl for any photography! Looking forward to the next time we’ll be able to work together.

Hi, I'm Lora! I'm so glad you're here. I have been a professional photographer for over 15 years, and I LOVE what I do!! My goal is to capture the joy and emotion of your day, as well as those beautiful shots that you can print and put on your wall, in your albums, and be cherished for the rest of your life. I specialize in bright, colorful photos as well as FUN, candid moments that will make you laugh when you look back on your day.

Lora was such a wonderful photographer to communicate with and she made great accommodations and remained very flexible while both planning and executing. The quality of work is superb and super high quality. Her years of experience are shining through in such a beautiful way with each and every image. She put each person at ease during our session and was so natural and comfortable. She is so professional and such a pleasure to experience in our time with her and images from her. Her skills and experience are superb. Everything she produces is exquisite and absolutely beautiful.
