Isabella Nicolé Photography & Film 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $750
  • Serves Santa Margarita, CA

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.

“We were a large family of about 12, including two children with special needs. Despite the size of the group, she managed to capture all the precious moments, and my pictures turned out beautifully! I highly recommend her services and will definitely book her again.”

“My now husband and I like to pride ourselves on being different and doing things out of your “norm”. Gradually, when it came to our wedding we wanted to do things differently and that included our wedding pictures. I found Tessa on IG and I immediately knew that her style fit our vision. Let me tell you, she did not disappoint. Her work speaks for itself. They were everyyyything! I loved that she made me feel like I was a natural in front of the camera. Tessa is also very professional. Props to her for continuing to take our pics in the middle of the ocean while being sea sick lol worth every penny 3”

“We loved working with Murtaza and the MKEShoots team for our 6-event Indian wedding, plus engagement shoot. His passion for the art was so infectious, especially since it was our first time doing professional photos. It took us some time to warm up to the camera, but once we did, well, the pictures really speak for themselves. Murtaza especially has an incredible eye for creative photo ideas, and he and the team made it so much fun even though we were stressed out with all the wedding drama. They scoped out noteworthy outdoor locations that made amazing backdrops, helped corral family members together for group photos, and just generally went above & beyond to make sure we had coverage of all the important moments - all the big things and the small details too. The photos we ended up with were beyond what I imagined, I'm thrilled with how they turned out. Now, I just need someone to help put the wedding album together.... :)”

Bedrosian Photo

  • Serves Santa Margarita, CA

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Bedrosian Photo was an incredible choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, Peter is attentive, responsive, and incredibly helpful in ensuring our vision came to life. The quality of his work was truly phenomenal - their documentary style photography captured the most authentic and one-of-a-kind moments of our special day. Peter went above and beyond to make my husband and I, who are normally camera shy, feel completely comfortable and seen. The way he was able to beautifully document the intimate Catholic faith traditions and cultural elements that were so important to us made the entire day seamless and reflective of who we are as a couple. We are over the moon with the final photos and couldn't recommend Bedrosian Photo more highly.”

“I was blown away by the number of beautiful moments they captured. Every smile, hug, and laugh is in the pictures. The video is like a movie, I’ve already watched it multiple times. They even caught things I didn’t notice during the wedding, like my dad tearing up while walking me down the aisle. The lighting and colors are gorgeous and natural. I was nervous about how the photos would look, but they made everything look so perfect. My husband looks so happy, and I love how my bridesmaids and family were included in all the shots. The candids are some of my favorite because they feel real. They stayed late to capture the sparkler exit and it turned out amazing. The portraits are incredible too, not stiff at all. They made me feel relaxed and confident in front of the camera. Everyone has been raving about how beautiful the photos are. I couldn’t be happier.”

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
“We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.”

  • Serves Santa Margarita, CA

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!!

Awarded Best of Zola
“If you’re looking for a wedding photographer, stop searching and book Danny! From the very beginning, his communication was outstanding. We had a very tight wedding-day schedule and were worried about fitting everything in while still getting all the photos we wanted. Danny was always available to answer questions, jump on a call, and help us think through the timeline. His guidance and responsiveness gave us so much peace of mind leading up to the wedding. A few days before the wedding, we shared a PDF with our shot list, inspiration photos, and overall vision. Not only did Danny listen to everything we wanted, but he brought that vision to life even better than we imagined. On the wedding day, he was incredibly organized, calm, and professional. He made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera and worked seamlessly throughout the day. He was respectful, fun with our guests, and collaborated wonderfully with our videography team, despite meeting them for the first time that day. Then we received our gallery… and we were absolutely shocked. We have so many incredible photos that we genuinely cannot choose favorites because every single one is gorgeous. Danny captured every important moment, all the emotions, the details, and so many candid memories that we will cherish forever. What amazes us even more is that he did all of this by himself! To this day, we still don’t know how one person managed to capture everything he did. His talent, attention to detail, and ability to anticipate moments are truly exceptional. We would recommend Danny 100% to any couple. His calm energy, professionalism, creativity, and incredible talent made him such an important part of our wedding day. We are beyond grateful for these memories and could not be happier with our photos.”

I'm Katherine, a wedding photographer based in Oakland, CA.

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
“We knew we wanted someone who could capture our dreamy, storybook aesthetic, and Caz Isaiah exceeded every expectation. From our first conversation, his communication was refreshingly straightforward and personable, which made the entire planning process feel easy and stress-free. On the wedding day, he brought genuine warmth—literally showing up with a snack for me in the morning—and his creative eye shone through in every shot. Caz doesn't rely on heavy posing; instead, he works from simple prompts to create naturally flattering images that feel authentic to who we are. What really got us was when he sent over prints from his film cameras without us even asking—a detail that perfectly captured the moody, romantic pictures we'd been dreaming about. His work is fantastic, and he genuinely went above and beyond to make our day feel like the vision we'd imagined. Very highy recommend Caz!”

“Sarah was beyond amazing! My (now) husband and I have always been camera shy and were nervous about taking pictures, as we felt the process might feel awkward. Sarah, however, did not make this the case! Both our engagement and wedding day photos not only turned out amazing...but Sarah made the whole process FUN!! We both felt really comfortable around her. Sarah was able to keep the whole day running on track without being pushy at all and remained extremely pleasant throughout the process! She was very professional, and kept in contact throughout the wedding planning process which as a (very) stressed out bride was reassuring and beyond appreciated. Fast forward to the wedding day, she was extremely attentive. She made sure we were able to have time to eat and enjoy the reception as well as letting us know when it was time to take sunset photos. Sarah was great, and on top of everything else she was able to capture some amazing candid shots. Because of Sarah we are able to relive the best day of our lives through the photos she captured!

Awarded Best of Zola
“My fiancé and I are getting married in May 2026 and are both pretty camera shy. We knew we wanted to get professional engagement and wedding photos done, but were nervous they would feel inauthentic. When we found Bailey’s page we were so excited about how she captured genuine joy from her couples in some of our favorite natural wonders in Oregon, which put us at ease going into our first conversation with her. Right out of the gate Bailey was incredible helping us feel comfortable with her, giving us resources to help guide our location outfit choices, and making us feel confident that we weren’t going to regret this decision. On the day of our engagement shoot, Bailey showed up at sunrise with us on the Oregon coast and ran around the beach for over 3 hours with us because the lighting kept shifting in such incredible ways through the clouds. Not only that, but she went above and beyond wrangling our dogs while we got some couple shots followed by some with the pups in some truly special family shots we will certainly be hanging up in the house. We had the best time with Bailey and the engagement photos she delivered were beyond anything we could have imagined. The way she captures the little smiles and moments between loved ones is unmatched, and her attention to lighting nuance and details of the natural area you’re in make her photos that much more special. We ended up using some of her photos for our invites and website, but are most excited to frame some for the house to remember forever. We can’t wait to have her as our wedding photographer and couldn’t recommend her enough for anyone looking!”

“Kin Photography was truly the perfect choice for our wedding, and we feel so grateful to have had them capture our day. From the very beginning, their communication style stood out—they were warm, welcoming, and incredibly responsive. Every question we had was answered with patience and clarity, and they made us feel completely at ease throughout the planning process. It felt less like working with a vendor and more like working with a trusted friend who genuinely cared about our experience. On the wedding day, Kin Photography exceeded every expectation. The quality of their work was simply breathtaking—every photo was beautifully composed, with flattering angles that highlighted not just how we looked, but how we felt. They managed to capture the joy, laughter, and emotion of the day in a way that still moves us when we look back at the images. What amazed us most was how they seemed to be everywhere at once, catching every little detail and candid moment without ever feeling intrusive. They went above and beyond in so many ways, even staying later than scheduled to ensure they didn’t miss a single shot. That kind of dedication speaks volumes about their professionalism and passion for what they do. From intimate portraits of us as a couple to heartfelt photos of our family and friends, Kin Photography gave us a collection of memories that we’ll treasure forever. Beyond the photos themselves, they made the entire process comfortable and fun. We never felt awkward in front of the camera—in fact, they made us feel beautiful and confident, which is such a gift on a day when emotions are running high. And then, as if all of that weren’t enough, we were surprised with a custom USB drive containing our photos. It was such a thoughtful and unexpected touch, and it made receiving our images feel even more special. Looking back, we can honestly say that Kin Photography contributed so much to making our wedding day unforgettable. Their talent, kindness, and genuine care shone through in every interaction and every photo. We couldn’t recommend them more highly to any couple searching for a photographer who will not only deliver stunning images but also make the entire experience joyful and seamless.”

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 worked for countless brands, models and lifestyle companies over the course of her earlier career – and even dabbled in social media marketing. It wasn’t until 2019 that she began to heavily pursue documenting lovers and their weddings. Mari Co was dreamt up in 2020 and she has since committed her heart to photographing people in love since then.

“I cannot express enough how thrilled we were with Juliana as our wedding photographer! From our first consultation to the final delivery of our photos, the entire experience was exceptional. Juliana was professional, passionate and had an incredible eye for detail. She had a unique ability to capture those candid moments that truly tell the story of our special day. Juliana made us feel comfortable and at ease, which allowed us to be ourselves and enjoy every moment. The quality of the photos are AMAZING and it was such a joy to relive our wedding day through these images. Juliana took the time to understand our vision and preferences, ensuring that every important moment was captured. If you're looking for a wedding photographer in NYC who is talented, dedicated, and genuinely cares about their clients, Juliana is amazing. We are forever grateful for the memories she helped us create, and we highly recommend her services!”
