Hi, I'm Sarah...your San Luis Obispo (and beyond) Wedding Photographer, and I’m obsessed with giving you the experience and photographs you deserve. After 15 years in the industry, I don't just show up to your wedding and snap photos. I’m here to listen to your vision, identify what’s important to you and then deliver an entire experience you'll love from start to finish. With me, you'll have the CONFIDENCE that I know exactly how to make all of your photos (yes, even those “posed ones”) tell the real – intimate, romantic, fun and adventurous – story of your day!

From the moment we started working with Sarah at Mirror's Edge Photography, we knew we had made the best decision for our wedding day. Her communication style is simply the best ever - she was so communicative and so willing to listen to all of our ideas and preferences. Sarah went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and confident, building us up like no one else. I cannot recommend Sarah enough, she is amazing at what she does and makes you feel wonderful no matter what you use her for. I started with a boudoir shoot, then engagement photos and wedding photos...so clearly it worked! I've also used Sarah for family photos and will never use anyone else as long as she's working. Don't walk, run to Mirror's Edge Photography - you won't regret it!

  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Santa Margarita, CA

I grew up on California's Central Coast and obtained a minor in Photography from Cal Poly SLO. My love for photography started in high school and has always been my sole aspiration. As a photographer, I understand that photos hold cherished memories that last a lifetime. Whether it's with family, friends, or loved ones, photos capture precious moments that we can revisit time and time again. These snapshots serve as a visual reminder of the joys we've experienced and the people we've shared them with.

If you’re looking for someone professional, funny, personable, and skilled, Andy is your guy! Getting quotes for photographers can be very intimidating and stressful. When I first reached out to Andy, I had a feeling that he was going to be the perfect match for us (and his price options are reasonable and affordable!). He kept in contact during the months leading up to our wedding, answering all of my questions and sending a list of questions for us to answer. We ended up pre-choosing what family/group pictures were most important to us and providing names. Andy had that list with him at our wedding and stuck to it, keeping us on schedule, but was willing to take on-the-spot added groups, too. He captured all of the moments that mattered to me, from the first look to the first dance. He took beautiful wedding party photos, posed and candid. He was very professional and able to take family group shots while being swarmed by hummingbirds. He made us laugh and smile. Even better, we received a small set of photos 2 days later, and all of the photos within 2 weeks. 11/10 would recommend!!

Dylan photographed our wedding at the Madonna Inn and did such a great job! We ended up with so many beautiful pictures that we could never decide which are our favorites and practically none of our friends were able to make it through the entire wedding album that we shared. He chatted with us in advance by phone, to go over all the details; and had plenty of good ideas for photo opportunities around the property on that day. Very happy with our choice to book Dylan on Zola!

We couldn’t be happier with Pete for our recent ranch-style wedding. From the very first meeting, he truly listened to our vision of an intimate, heartfelt celebration and brought it to life in the most beautiful way. He handled every detail with such care and creativity — from coordinating the DJ setup, lights, photography to making sure the barbecue feast was to take place at the right time and music vibes flowed perfectly. What stood out most was how he went above and beyond — coming early to fix last-minute issues, adding thoughtful personal touches we hadn’t even thought of, and keeping everything running smoothly so we could actually relax and enjoy our day. Our guests are still raving about how seamless and magical it felt. If you’re planning a country or rustic wedding (or any wedding!), do yourself a favor and book Pete and his team. He’s professional, responsive, and genuinely passionate about making your day unforgettable. The pictures were stunning! Highly, highly recommend!

According to my camera, I’ve photographed thousands of moments. According to my knees, I’ve spent most of them crouching. I started NarBear Studios because my own wedding photos turned out terribly, and nobody should have to roll the dice on something this important. These days I spend my weekends documenting weddings, carrying enough camera gear to concern airport security, and solving problems nobody tells you about when you’re engaged. Beautiful photos are the goal. Surviving wedding planning with your sanity intact is the bonus. My job is to make sure the only thing you regret about your wedding is the guest who requested Nickelback songs

We honestly could not have asked for a better wedding photographer. From the very beginning, Grant made us feel comfortable, relaxed, and genuinely excited about the entire process. He paid attention to every detail, helped guide us naturally when needed, and somehow captured moments we didn’t even realize were happening. The photos turned out absolutely incredible — timeless, emotional, and beautifully edited without looking overly filtered or artificial. Every image feels like a piece of our story. Family and friends have not stopped complimenting them. What stood out most was how much he truly cared about giving us an amazing experience, not just delivering photos. He went above and beyond throughout the day and made everything feel effortless. If you want someone who is creative, professional, laid-back, and genuinely talented, NarBear Studios is the photographer to book. These are photos we’ll treasure forever.

What really sets April apart is how she went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. Whether it was helping with last-minute adjustments on the day of or offering thoughtful suggestions during our engagement shoot in San Luis Obispo and Pismo Beach, she made us feel like we were the top priority. We can’t recommend April enough for anyone looking for a wedding or engagement photographer.

I first picked up a camera in high school and was instantly obsessed with the process and possibilities of capturing images. I went on to study at The San Francisco Art Institute and transferred to The Art Center, College of Design in Pasadena, earning a BFA in Photography. I began my career as a photographer in a Los Angeles product photo studio. While working there, I found I had a talent for photo retouching. I worked as a professional retoucher for many years and know what many celebrities really look like hah! I made my way back to freelance photography after having my daughter in 2013.

We LOVED working with Gennan. Out photos are spectacular, abundant and just what we hoped for. I love that she schedules a call with you to discuss your style and vibes, to get to know you a bit. She was responsive through email prior to the big day, and I was so impressed she even brought some of the inspo pics I had sent for us to recreate. She was very professional while being easy and fun to shoot with! She even resent some photos that were B&W that we wanted in color. Edits were lovely. Now our only problem is trying to choose from so many favorites.

This review is long overdue! Mostly because my wife and I have been 'honeymooning' these past few months but we wanted to also share our experience with Lightfall Imagery for our wedding back in November 2024. Victoria was super professional and showed up on time and was ready to take photos from start time to a little after finish. Unfortunately our other photographer from a different company cancelled on us so she had to work a little harder for us to help fill the role for 2 photographers and she did not dissapoint. My wife and I usually are not photogenic but Victoria helped us to feel relaxed and ourselves throughout our special day. We would absolutely love to work with her again. If you are ever considering a photographer for any occasion, Lightfall Imagery is definitely a choice you can not go wrong with.

Julie was our absolute favorite vendor for our wedding — she's amazing! From the very start, she was more than just our photographer, offering recommendations for other vendors and tips & tricks to make the wedding planning process easier for us, which was especially appreciated because we were planning it remotely. Her pricing is competitive and fair, and she truly took the time to get to know both me and my husband to ensure her photos captured our day and styles authentically. We added her husband, Will, as a second shooter, and they were both incredibly helpful and kind on the day. Even more importantly, the photos and physical photo album turned out beautiful (a good mix of candid & formal shots, which is exactly what we wanted). We're so grateful to have the album to look back on that helps us relive one of the best days of our lives. Thank you, Julie — can't wait to see you again at my best friend's wedding later this year!

Hire Lo. You won't regret it. Not only does she know what she is doing in terms of getting all the planned shots, she got incredible candid shots and live shots of my groom and I, our families, and our guests. As we've been looking back so far at our pictures, we get to relive the emotion of the day. It's the intangible thing that an incredible photographer can do--capture the emotion. I can feel our joy radiating out of our photos and I am so grateful I hired Lo. Years from now we are going to get to experience this day over-and-over because the quality of her photos is incredible. The variety of shots she was able to get makes it seem like she had second shooter (but she's just that good). Our first look was perfect. She made sure we got some golden hour shots and then got us right back to dinner so we could eat. She also is incredible at giving minor adjustment tips to make sure we weren't doing anything weird with our hands lol. Additionally, and this was big for me, working with her ahead of the wedding she reminded me how to be excited for this day. Wedding planning was stressful, but every time I got to talk to Lo she got me back to a place of being excited and joyful. The day-of when she showed up, she helped make sure we had everything covered, and kept me calm even when some things went wrong. I felt like I not only had a great photographer, but a friend who had my back and wanted to make sure my day went perfect. I am so glad we hired Lo. My groom teared up looking back at some of these photos. Hire Lo!

Her attention to detail, direction, and posing skills made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, and she somehow managed to keep everything running smoothly while still making it so fun and natural. She was an absolute ROCKSTAR the entire day, anticipating moments before they happened and capturing them so beautifully and effortlessly. When working with her, you feel as if you’ve known her your whole life. Beyond her impressive talent, Julia is just an amazing person to be around. She is personable, friendly, kind, funny, and so outgoing—it honestly felt like we had a close friend by our side all day. That kind of presence made such a difference and allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment of our wedding day. And the sneak peek photos… omg we were BEYOND blown away and I cried tears of joy and am still at a loss for words looking at them everyday! Receiving them in less than 48 hours was already impressive, but the photos themselves were beyond anything we could have imagined—stunning, romantic, emotional, and perfectly capturing the magic of our day. She is worth every penny and more! From the day I found her Instagram and website, I knew there was no other photographer I could use for our wedding. Whether you’re getting married at the iconic San Francisco City Hall, on a Safari in Africa, or under the northern lights, she has the itinerary mapped out to a T and gives you the resources to make your day absolutely seamless while always keeping you in the loop and making you feel important and valued. It was truly a dream come true to have Julia as our wedding photographer. We could not have had a more treasured and memorable day without her, and we will be forever grateful. 10000000/10 experience and I want to get married over and over just to have her shoot us again! Thank you again, Julia-you made my wedding dreams come true️

We couldn't have asked for a better photography team for our wedding! Samantha, our lead photographer, and Emily, our second photographer, were absolutely amazing from start to finish. They brought such a fun and calming energy to the day, making everyone feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. They truly have a gift for capturing not just moments, but personalities. Our bridal party was full of different characters, and Samantha and Emily managed to highlight each one so beautifully. From the laughter and joy to the more emotional, quiet moments, they captured the full range of the day’s emotions perfectly. Looking through our photos now feels like reliving the best day of our lives—and that's all thanks to their incredible talent and attention to detail.
