Hi There! I'm Katherine (or Kay!). I've loved weddings for as long as I could remember and I believe I have one of the best jobs in the whole world. I love being able to capture moments from one of the best days of a couples lives and I get to do it alongside my best friend, my Husband. You could call us nerds; we love Harry Potter, puzzles and video games. Our favorite vacation spot is definitely Las Vegas and we both love good Mexican food. We have two fur babies; Bella and Betsy and yes they are so spoiled. The Husband, Abraham (or Bram) is also an engineer when he's not capturing weddings and a Cal Poly alum.

Randall de Leon Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Santa Maria, CA

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely love working with Randall! He has been our go-to family photographer for years, capturing everything from my sisters' and cousins' special moments to my graduation and most recently, my wedding. Randall is incredibly easy to get along with, always professional, and super responsive. I never had to worry about a thing, he came fully prepared for our big day and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. He has a great way of making everyone feel comfortable, which really shows in the beautiful photos he takes. We will continue to hire and recommend Randall every chance we get. He’s awesome, and I 100% recommend him to anyone looking for stunning, heartfelt photography!

I've always had a love for color and light, and a passion for landscapes and people. Ever since highschool and into college photography was just something that, no pun intended, caught my eye. I've been shooting weddings for 6 years now and there's nothing Id rather be doing. I'm married to the love of my life Rachel, sandwiches are my favorite food and I love long walks on the beach. Seriously I do :)

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn’t be happier that we chose Dylan to capture our wedding day! From the moment we started looking at photographers, Dylan’s work stood out—he has such a natural eye for creating magic in his photos, beautifully balancing the people and the scenery in every shot. We booked Dylan for both photo and video, and it was one of the best decisions we made. Our package included a complimentary engagement session, which was the perfect way to get to know him and feel comfortable in front of the camera before the big day. Dylan made everything feel so effortless and fun, suggesting creative, candid ideas that felt natural to us as a couple. His wife joined as a second shooter, which added another amazing layer of coverage and perspective. Working with them as a team was an absolute joy—they instantly made us feel like old friends. On our wedding day, Dylan and his team (again with his wife as our bonus second shooter!) worked tirelessly to capture every moment. His professionalism and guidance were invaluable—whether it was suggesting the best lighting or pointing out opportunities for unforgettable shots, he always seemed to know exactly what would work. Despite the full day of shooting, he kept the atmosphere fun, lighthearted, and comfortable. It truly felt like having a friend by our side, not just a photographer. When we received our sneak peeks, we were blown away—and then the full gallery arrived, and it was beyond anything we could have dreamed of. Dylan’s ability to capture genuine emotion while also highlighting the beauty of the setting is unmatched. Every photo is vibrant, timeless, and filled with meaning. And then came the wedding video—an absolute masterpiece. Dylan’s artistry in weaving together the details, emotions, and moments of our day transported us right back to those memories. Watching it, we felt all the magic of our wedding day come flooding back. We are endlessly grateful to Dylan Kyle Photography for capturing our love story so beautifully. His talent, creativity, and warm personality made this experience unforgettable, and we can’t recommend him highly enough for anyone looking for a photographer or videographer.

Hi! I’m Gui — a multicultural wedding photographer and videographer based in Los Angeles, CA. My passion for photography began in childhood, playing with my grandmother’s old film camera in Brazil. For over seven years, I’ve been documenting and celebrating love stories across Southern California. My style is natural, colorful, vibrant, and candid. I believe every couple deserves to feel seen and celebrated, no matter their background or style of wedding. My approach is calm, creative, and personal — focused on capturing real emotions, spontaneous laughter, and the quiet in-between moments that make your day unforgettable.

Awarded Best of Zola
We discovered Gui on Zola and reached out because of his experience with photographing marriages for various cultures and from various backgrounds. Gui's photographs also caught our eye as there were great candid shots to capture the moment and sweet posed ones. When we met with Gui over zoom to get to know each other, he was kind, responsive, and knowledgable. Gui helped put us at ease, and it was a fairly quick decision to go with him after we met. We did an engagement photo session with Gui. He was very flexible when the park we wanted to do the session at was closed. We were able to pivot, and Gui took incredible photos in the new location. Gui also did not pressure us always asking if we were okay with the poses, but adjusting us for better shots. We were so happy with the engagement photos. On the day of the wedding, Gui was prompt and punctual. We took a few shots before the ceremony. During the ceremony, Gui captured all the key moments, but we also received compliments from our guests that he did not distract or take away from teh ceremony. Gui did great with the family photos and was very gracious in the many photos with friends during the reception. We cannot recommend Gui enough. His demeanor helped to relieve any stress around the photos both during the engagement session and the wedding. Gui's experience with many different couples has helped him develop cultural sensitivity which he uses to capture and highlight the unique moments of their ceremony. Thank you so much, Gui, for all your help during the wedding.

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 reading about her on our website to our initial phone call - I knew I had to book her. We had so much in common and she checked off every box! Haley delivered the most amazing engagement photos and we had so much fun taking them-we couldn't wait to spend our wedding day with her. Fast forward to the wedding, Haley was on-time, so kind, professional, so much fun, and delivered the wedding photo album of our dreams. Our photos are beyond gorgeous and she captured me, my husband, our families and our friends in a way no one else could have. The night before, she captured the vibe so perfectly - the room was so vibrant and full of love. On our wedding day, she didn't miss a beat, capturing every detail and special moment from start to finish. Haley, we are forever grateful for your work and your kindness.
