Hi, I’m Grant, the photographer behind NarBear. The name? I love narwhals and bears. A very scientific branding process. I photograph weddings in Ventura, Santa Barbara, Monterey, Carmel, San Jose, San Francisco, and San Luis Obispo. My style is timeless, romantic, and natural—with enough direction to make you look incredible without turning your wedding into a photoshoot. I personally edit every delivered image. No batch processing or cookie-cutter presets. Choose four hours with the Essential Collection or up to 10 hours with Signature, which includes a complimentary engagement session at Asilomar State Beach. Both collections include a 24-hour sneak peek. Tell me about your plans. I’d love to hear your story.

“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.”

I am a luxury portrait and wedding photographer on the beautiful Central Coast (with a stint spent in the Midwest). I discovered my love for photography while at Allan Hancock College and have spent the last 4 years learning, growing, and perfecting my style and flow. I took a few years to travel around and find where I wanted to end up, and, of course, after spending a few years in the Midwest with my husband, my inspiring home called me back, and we, and our little boy, Stetson, now live in Nipomo, CA. We spend our free time walking on the beach and mountain biking.

“Isabella has an amazing eye for great photos! She was super sweet and really loved experimenting with different sceneries, props, etc. I could have never asked someone better to do my photoshoot for graduation! She even made sure we got everything we wanted to despite going over time! thank you so much for all the photos and hope to work with you again someday!”

I’m Peter, the guy behind Bedrosian Photo. I photograph weddings, people, parties, emotion, chaos, and all the weird little moments in between. I care way more about honesty than perfection — the nervous energy before a ceremony, your drunk uncle on the dance floor, your grandma crying quietly in the corner, or the split-second look your partner gives you when they think nobody’s watching. Those moments matter more than anything staged ever could.

He captured so many beautiful candid moments and worked with such professionalism. We were blown away by how quickly he delivered our photos, just two days after the wedding, we had them all! His great personality and professionalism truly made the experience so enjoyable. We couldn’t recommend him more, hire him!”

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

“Isaac came recommended from a friend who did their engagement and wedding photos with him. We were also fortunate to have done our proposal, engagement and wedding photos with Isaac! He is so professional and comfortable to be around. My husband and I dont usually like to take photos, because we are self conscious, but Isaac took care of us. I am so grateful we came across LoveKnot and will always highly recommend them for anyone's special occasion.”

Hi, I'm Danny! My passion is to capture couples & their love story in a timeless way. I like to describe my style as a fusion between story-telling & editorial. I lean into true-to-life colors with a warm ambience and posing that's timeless but also interwoven with an editorial flare that's unique, artistic, and stylish. I also love incorporating story-telling stills that involve movement rather than a bunch of photos that feel "stiff" or overly posed. Story-telling moments bring wedding galleries life! I’d love the opportunity to connect with you, and hear more about your wedding vision!!

I'm Katherine, a wedding photographer based in Oakland, CA. With over a decade of experience and features in Vogue, Brides, The New York Times, and more, I know how to create wedding photos that don’t just look stunning — they feel like you. No trendy filters, no forced poses, just authentic moments that reflect who you are. I believe the best moments aren’t staged. They unfold naturally, in the quiet glances, the belly laughs, and those unspoken connections shared with your loved ones. My goal is to capture those raw, in-between moments that truly make your wedding day yours!

Awarded Best of Zola
“Katherine helped us capture our civil ceremony at SF City Hall and we couldn't have been luckier to find her! She is incredibly fun, professional, organized, and delivered everything exactly as she described. A few things we especially appreciated was that since we had a full destination wedding planned a couple months later, she was very mindful of our budget and worked with us to still get what we were wanting for the civil ceremony. She also created a fantastic guide to SF City Hall Weddings that she sent early and to help get us prepared. And she's very thorough and communicative; she responds to emails promptly and if there was even a slight delay in delivering anything she told us immediately. And of course the photos turned out beautifully! Overall, we just loved her energy. Since she set up a video call before our date to get to know us and what we were looking for, it was like meeting an old friend when the day came. She was so easy to work with and we felt immediately comfortable with her. I can only imagine what a joy she is to have for a full wedding! We highly recommend working with Katherine!”

If you've ever felt awkward in photos, that's my favorite problem to solve. I'm Heather, a loose editorial wedding and elopement photographer, and I'll go anywhere you're getting married. Not because I have to. Because I want to. I give you real direction so you know exactly what to do, then I step back and let something true happen inside the frame. I can't fabricate moments, so I don't try. You get bold, stylish portraits and the real in-between stuff in the same gallery, and all of it still looks like you. I'm part of the LGBTQIA+ community, and every couple, every identity, every kind of love is welcome here because of that.

Her eye for special moments and her creative approach brought the day to life in a way that exceeded everyone’s expectations. As a wedding planner, it’s a joy to collaborate with vendors who not only deliver exceptional work but also make the day smoother for everyone involved. Allen is absolutely one of those people, and I look forward to working with her again!”

“Carly and Elliot from A Nomadic Love are truly one of a kind. They photographed one of our best friend’s weddings in 2019, another in 2023, and then ours in 2025, and we honestly couldn’t fathom having anyone else capture these moments. Their photos are truly unmatched. A Nomadic Love was the very first vendor I booked, long before I knew anything else about our wedding, because they were my one and only non-negotiable! Their style and editing speak for themselves, but what makes them even more special is who they are as people. They are so much fun to be around, they instantly make you feel comfortable, and seamlessly guiding you through each shot. They make everything so much fun, that you don't even really notice you are being photographed. Every experience I’ve had with them has been exceptional. Our wedding photos are beyond what we could have imagined, and we are still trying to narrow down which ones to print because every single one is that good. We’ve gotten endless compliments from family, friends, and are so happy with how our special day was documented through photo. Carly and Elliot are unlike any other, and we could not recommend them more”

Every wedding has its own rhythm. I'm inspired by the way a great film makes you feel like you're actually inside the story — the anticipation before something happens, the quiet moments between people, the movement, the atmosphere, and the unexpected frames you could never have planned. I photograph weddings with that same instinct, moving with what's already unfolding rather than forcing the day into a shot list or manufacturing moments. The images move between digital capture and authentic 35mm and medium-format film, giving each moment the rendering that suits it best — creating photographs that feel like frames from a film you happened to live inside.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Caz and Sheldon were amazing to work with! Caz has such an amazing and special vision when it comes to photography and really captured our day to perfection and so beautifully. Upon receiving our photos back, we were able to relive our day as if we were in each moment! He is sooooo talented and I really recommend him to anyone. You won’t find a better photographer.”

Hi! My name is Bailey and I am the owner of Baileaves Photography. I am a travel and destination wedding photographer based in Portland, Oregon. I travel all over the world to create timeless cinematic images of couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I'm going to try to put into words how incredible Bailey was, but honestly, the photos speak for themselves. Let me start with this: we were actually excited for the photos because we knew Bailey was great, but my wife and I are AWKWARD in front of a camera. Like, painfully awkward. So there were still some nerves going in. Bailey put those to rest almost immediately and turned the photo shoot into one of my favorite parts of the entire day, second only to actually marrying my wife. She has this way of making you forget the camera is even there. Within minutes we were laughing and just being ourselves, and it shows in every single shot. The amount of prep work she put in blew me away. She scouted locations ahead of time, knew exactly where the light would be at what hour, and had already figured out where we should stand before we even got there. Nothing was left to chance. You could tell she'd thought through every detail long before the wedding day, and it made everything feel effortless on our end. We just showed up and she handled the rest. But here's the thing that says it all: multiple friends came up to us during the reception asking how long we'd known Bailey and if she was a close friend of ours. She was working. That's just how warm and genuinely fun she is to be around. By the end of the night, it really did feel like we'd known her for years. And the photos. They're so natural, so us, and somehow better than anything we could have imagined. Our friends have been raving about them nonstop, showing them to their fiancées, wives, even their moms. We've already had people asking for her info. If you want a photographer with serious talent who also makes the whole experience genuinely fun, Bailey is it. We couldn't be happier.”

Awarded Best of Zola
“My wife and I finally saved up for our dream wedding in Hawaii, the best choice we ever had was to have Masha as our photographer! If you are tight on the funds, we opted out of a wedding planner and allocated are funds to a very good photographer. I am baseline awkward and she was able to make me look like a model! She is very professional, always on time/punctual with appointments and prompt email replies. She has a very in depth understanding of shadows, light, angles. I appreciate how she directs us on poses and she is very accommodating. She has a wide range of photography styles but we chose her for her editorial photography style like Vogue or Elle magazine, which is very hard to do. Would strongly recommend to anyone.”
