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!

  • Serves Santa Margarita, CA

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.

I didn’t even know where to begin! Choosing to work with Vic was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our engagement. Since my partner and I don’t really use social media, we’re not exactly selfie pros—in fact, we’re pretty awkward in front of the camera. That’s why we knew we needed a professional to capture this special moment, and let me tell you, Vic was amazing. As someone who had no clue how to pose, I was so grateful for her expert guidance. She made the entire experience feel effortless, and our photos turned out absolutely stunning—timeless, elegant, and so full of emotion. I never imagined I’d actually enjoy taking photos, but Vic made it such a fun and memorable experience! Beyond her incredible skills behind the camera, she was also a fantastic adviser when it came to choosing locations, and her warm, friendly personality made us feel completely at ease. We loved her so much, and I truly can’t recommend her enough. Writing this review is making me emotional because I’m just so grateful that she was our photographer. Thank you, Vic!!

I’m a born and raised Southern California girl and am now based out of Chandler, Arizona. I've been married to my husband for over 10 years and we have 2 beautiful daughters together. I've been photographing weddings for over 10 years now and love it more than ever. What I love about photography and especially wedding photography is how I’m able to connect with myself and others. I believe that your soul knows when it’s onto something good. Brings a new meaning to the term “soulmate” doesn’t it? That’s why I’m so passionate about creating art with you and your loved ones in mind.

If you are looking for a wedding photographer your search is over! Alyssa was the best photographer we could have ever chosen for our wedding and I hope to have her take all of our future family photos. Alyssa did our engagement photos at Sauguaro Lake, a photo shoot with my Mom's wedding dress, our civil ceremony at the courthouse, and our wedding day in Puerto Vallarta. Every single photo she took turned out so beautiful, artistically telling the story in each event. I will especially forever cherish the polaroids she took. At the end of our wedding night we had a photo album capturing the the night, which was such a special touch! Her work is not only beautiful, her personality is too. We instantly connected and I felt like I had friend by my side at each photoshoot. She makes you feel so comfortable and helps direct you into the most flattering, natural poses.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

From the very first email, zoom meetings, to the moment she arrived at our hotel the morning of our wedding to the very last minute eight hours later, she was the definition of professionalism, talent, and calm energy.

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.

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. We feel so lucky to have had them as part of our wedding and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for photographers who are not only skilled but genuinely a joy to be around.

Hello! I’m Savannah, the photographer behind Savannah Rose Photography. Like so many, photography started out as a fun hobby, and I have been fortunate enough to be able to make it my career. For the past 10 years I have been able to use my passion for art and photography to help my clients create uniquely beautiful memories that they will enjoy for years to come. I am definitely guilty of being a bit of a perfectionist which ensures that I do everything I can to give you the best photography experience. Whether it be portrait session or on your wedding day.

Savannah captured my surprise engagement photos and I couldn't have been more happy with how they turned out. She went above and beyond the entire time and even took time before our shoot to scout out different locations that she thought would work well so we could use all of our time we had with her more efficiently. She also thought of everything and got my fiancé and I a picnic to enjoy as she knew we might be hungry during out shoot and we even utilized that to get some fun photos that are now some of my favorites. She made us feel so comfortable during our time and we loved working with her. Also, she took so many photos and got them back to us insanely quick. She was so amazing that I will be trying to come up with reason to use her again in the future.
