Grace Kathryn Photography 

5.0

Santa Barbara, CA
  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,000

I'm a California native with a wanderlusting soul. I grew up in the snowy mountains of Lake Tahoe and spent my teenage years in the rainforests of Costa Rica before returning to the West Coast of the United States to study the art of wedding photography and earn my BFA with Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara, California.

Awarded Best of Zola
From start to finish, Grace was a calming, warm presence - the whole time we worked with her I felt like we were in excellent hands. She gently directed us without being "posed" or pushy. No notes. Like any engaged person, I felt some anxiety about photos since that's the thing that you get to actually "keep" after your big day. When I tell you, not only do we look like freaking movie stars in all Grace's photos, she PERFECTLY captured the EMOTION of the moment. If you didn't know better, you would think our wedding pictures were a People Magazine Exclusive or something. Just as valuable as the photos themselves was Grace's kind attitude and willingness to work with us on what we needed. It ended up raining on our courthouse day and she not only rolled with it, but got INCREDIBLE photos to boot! Long story short: HIRE GRACE!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring DJ Jas was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding weekend. He handled everything: our rehearsal dinner, welcome party, Baraat, ceremony, reception, choreographed dances, and the full dance floor - and absolutely crushed every single moment. From day one, he was incredibly thorough and intentional in his preparation. He met with us as often as we wanted, took the time to really understand us as a couple, and made the entire collaboration feel effortless. He welcomed our playlists and suggestions, but also took creative ownership in a way that elevated everything. The result? There was never a dull moment. The dance floor was electric. Truly. He had it rocking all night long. Multiple guests came up to us throughout the weekend saying how incredible the DJ was and how much the music stood out across all of our events. And the Baraat… that was next level. This is a non-traditional element for many DJs, but he embraced it fully and CRUSHED it. Mobbed down State Street with him by our side, music blasting, our friends and family dancing through the streets - it was one of the best moments of our lives. He understood the cultural importance and delivered beyond what we imagined. Beyond his talent, he genuinely cared about us. He was easy to talk to, always available for questions, calm, collaborative, and fully invested in making our wedding unforgettable. We truly couldn’t imagine a better DJ for our weekend. If you want a packed dance floor, flawless execution, and someone who deeply cares about getting it right - DJ JAS is your guy. Could not recommend more.

Angie, you were absolutely incredible to work with. We had a wonderful time partnering with Angie to create our dream wedding. She was recommended to us by our venue, The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, and we are so happy we chose her! Angie has such a positive personality, always kept everything under control, and never let us feel overwhelmed. It was so smooth at times we wondered what we were forgetting, and Angie always reassured us that we had it all covered. She did it ALL - from getting our vendor rates and availability sorted to showing us all our options and details that made the day come to life. Through our regularly scheduled calls and all the messaging in between, she asked all the right questions to help guide the process, (even for things we hadn't even thought about) and was always available for the one-off questions and to keep us sane, especially during those final two critical months before the big day. Angie also has a wonderful website that organized all our to-do lists, inspo pics, budget info, timelines, vendor details, etc. We didn’t realize how essential something like this was for keeping us on track, and it was little extra details like this that made such a difference. It's because of Angie that we had such wonderful vendors, a significantly less painful planning experience, and a flawlessly executed wedding day!

We had the absolute best experience with our wedding photographer! From the moment she and her second shooter Lauren arrived, they brought such warmth and ease to the day. My husband and I are both notoriously awkward in front of the camera, but they made us feel so comfortable and natural—it honestly felt like hanging out with friends. The preview photos we’ve received so far are absolutely stunning, and I couldn’t be happier with her work. I’m beyond excited to see the full gallery. What impressed me even more was how gracefully they adapted to the day’s hiccups. Despite less-than-ideal direction, they rolled with the punches and got creative, making sure to capture everything beautifully and meaningfully. I truly can’t recommend her enough—professional, talented, calm under pressure, and just an overall joy to work with. Book her. You won’t regret it!

Jausalynn is truly a master of her craft. I came to her a little over 8 month before our big day with a vision but really allowed her creative juices to flow as we were deciding on our florals. She provided professional and helpful advice but allowed our vision to stay true to us. I was in awe at how many options she provided us that were so aligned with what we brought to her initially. She set up recurring meetings to ensure we stayed aligned and would even send pics of some pieces that worked with our style and interests. I felt so confident that Jaus would bring our vision to life even after our initial prospect call but I didn't know it would have turned out as amazing as it did. The bouquet, boutonnières, aisle moment, bar moment....EVERYTHING was done so perfectly and it was so intentional. I had a dream to incorporate fruits into our tablescape and Jaus made it happen and was so creative in her placements. I couldn't believe it when I saw it! Hiring a florist is truly putting trust in someone to deliver on a vision that you have....hiring Jaus was the single best decision we made on our wedding day. Not to mention she is the kindest most wonderful soul I have ever met and I feel honored to have worked with her. If you have even a slight interest in having the best experience with your wedding florals you better book her. She will change your life for the better!

My experience working with Nicole was amazing! She is hands down the best planner/ design stylist in the wedding industry! I work in the wedding industry as a wedding photographer so I was a little particular with my wedding planning needs. Nicole has been amazing since our first virtual meet up! Not long after our first virtual meet up she drove down to see our wedding space in person and took lots of videos and photos and even measurements. Nicole is amazing at what she does and is so detailed! We discussed placement of items briefly and not long after nicole sent a mood board with photos of the space with items she thought would look best! I was so shocked and excited that she went above and beyond to give me a visual of what the space would look like. Throughout the year leading up to our wedding , Nicole was extremely responsive to all of my emails and I loved that so much about her. Communication is so important to me and Nicole stayed in communication all year long. Nicole found all of my rentals that would match the vibe of my wedding and communicated with all of my vendors for me. I honestly would not have survived the wedding planning process without her. Nicole is so detailed with her planning & designing and sent me a final design board with everything we had been discussing all year with exact pictures of our rentals and photoshopped mock ups of what my florals would look like. Nicole listened to all my wedding needs and wants and created the most beautiful design board absolutely nailing my vision! The day of my wedding I was blown away at how beautiful everything turned out! Although it looked almost identical to the design board she found ways to still surprise and add unique touches to the design. The day of I didn’t realize things weren’t completed( on my end. Some signage didn’t get made) but Nicole improvised last minute and rearranged some items so that I wasn’t even able to tell. Nicole is truly so talented and I’m so happy I found her!! She is so sweet, creative, talented, and communicative and I will forever be recommending her to everyone! 10/10 recommend nicole with Nicole Leza Design!

With a background in visual merchandising, marketing studies in Paris, and valuable business experience in the corporate world, I eventually returned to photography—always my first love after taking a film photography course in high school—and never looked back. More than a decade in, my love for weddings remains as strong as ever. My empathetic nature and holistic approach help create a warm, relaxed experience for every couple I work with.

I could not recommend Emily enough as a wedding/special event photographer. Outside of being incredibly polished and professional, Emily is also just a wonderful and warm person. She's truly someone I would be friends with. I had so many friends and family rave about her after our wedding, saying she made them feel comfortable and relaxed, and she kept everything running so smoothly. I don't personally love having my photo taken, but Emily did such an incredible job making my husband and I feel comfortable during our engagement shoot, that I was actually excited and so relaxed for the wedding, knowing the photos would be amazing. She is incredibly fast, thorough, and runs a super well-oiled machine; she made my type A heart so happy, and she is just simply the best!
