Frank is the best when it comes to taking pictures! Before our wedding, he met with us and was super helpful with planning and suggesting ideas for specific photos that we wanted for the big day.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kay and Bram were an absolute joy to work with! It also helped they are total dog lovers like my husband and I, and captured the absolute best images of our boy, Maverick. I don’t think there was one moment where we were NOT smiling or laughing around these two, and it put my anxious mind completely at ease. They are affordable, hard-working, and completely matched our photography vision (lighter) for our most important day. I don’t think there are enough words to express my gratitude for the talent these two possess, but for now…thank you, Kay and Bram, for everything you have done for us. We truly adore you and are so lucky to have befriended you! - Chelsea, Neal, and Mav

Vic was the best photographer my husband and I have ever worked with!!! We hired her for our wedding and she was so professional and fun to work with. My family, bridal party and guest loved her! Vic had us laughing the entire time and made us feel comfortable with posing and suggested us the best ideas too. After a week or 2 after the wedding we got our photos and they were breathtaking!! Most photos I didn’t realized she captured since she was so quick on her feet. It looks like there was 3 photographers since she got all angles from the ceremony, speeches, and dances. We are so impressed by how amazing she is. We highly recommend her to photograph any event you have and want to make sure everything is captured!

Randall de Leon Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Santa Ynez, 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’ve been lucky to know and work with Randall for a few years. When we finally decided to make things “official” we knew we wanted someone that does great work, that we trust, and would make us feel comfortable. We wanted our day to feel like a relaxed family event and Randall helped with that and so much more. He suggested possible locations that would meet our dream event and times to maximize the best lighting for the area. Once we settled on the location and date, he maintained excellent communication in preparation to the event to properly flesh out the day’s timetable, day of logistics, and post. On the day of our wedding he expertly directed us and our families, using the natural lighting to capture the perfect shots. We would have been lost without him, especially since no one knew how to assist with bustling my dress. During our dinner reception he seamlessly directed restaurant staff to assist in transitioning between meals/dessert/toast for more amazing shots. After the wedding he kept us updated on next steps for our pictures. Randall is truly a gem and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone special to capture their day.

Leave it to us and make the 2nd best decision of your life, after choosing to marry your loved one, of course :)

Awarded Best of Zola
I’ve heard of Aladdin Films from my friend, who 2 months before the wedding couldn’t stop talking about their team and a wedding video her sister got from Aladdin Films. Of course, after such a review from my best friend, I had to consider Aladdin Films for my wedding day. But once I got on their website, their hyper-creative, beautifully done videos and fantastic photos didn’t leave me any choice other than contact them. And after talking to Iman about their services, he left me no choice other than hire them. His enthusiasm and creative approach to work was spectacular. But still, I was a little bit skeptical till the day of my wedding. But as soon as I met them in person, I was 100% sure that they will create a masterpiece. Words cannot describe how hardworking their team is. They came half an hour before the wedding to observe the place and create a plan on what, where, and when they will be doing certain things. Their service was on another level, but everything comes down to one thing. The result. It didn’t take them long to edit everything, and when we sat with the whole family on our couch to see the result. Everybody was in complete delight. We couldn’t stop laughing, crying, and wondering how they could take such a good shot. It seemed that they had not 3 but 10 cameras. Top-notch editing, perfect angles, and great sound design are just some of the characteristics of that video. And pictures can be displayed in the Louver. Their artistic retouching photos were so good, that we are going to print them on huge canvases and put them all on the walls of our house. We immediately send them out to all of our relatives and hurried them up to hire them ASAP because as they said, they often get booked up. We’ll definitely hire them again on all of our family events, and if you are a couple that is looking for a videographer & photographer to capture the best moments of your wedding day, look no further, Aladdin Films is an obvious choice.

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!

Jared Countryman Productions was an amazing wedding photography and videography team to work with. From our very first conversation, their communication was easy and productive, making the planning process a breeze. On the day of our wedding, Jared was a joy to have around - he blended seamlessly into the celebration and captured all the special moments with an immaculate eye for detail. The final photos and video were absolutely perfect, beautifully showcasing the joy and love of our special day. We are thrilled with the work Jared Countryman Productions delivered and would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

Hello there. Holy moly, I've been photographing all the pretty things, places and people for 12 years! I am a proud Mama to 3 kiddos, so I get the chaos that comes with love, life and the little ones. I love to dive right in and figure out what story I've been invited to tell. Who are you? I want to know your why. Why do you want your pictures taken and why me. Together we'll create your wardrobe with intention and choose a location that speaks to you. I always encourage connection, music, kisses and your best dance moves.

Kristen has long been our go to photographer I’m San Diego, CA. From maternity, to newborn, and even large group family photos we have always felt at ease and comfortable working with her. Not only does Kristen put everybody at ease, but she laughs, coaches, and encourages along the way. Flashback to 2012 when 23 year old Nina and 28 year old Brian decided to get married after knowing each other for 6 months, we did so quietly, secretly, and without the love and support we needed. We had always said we would do a ceremony and time seemed to be slipping by with constant military deployments, two adorable boys, and family heath concerns. In Jan 2022 we decided we had to do it on our 10 year anniversary in March. If you can’t tell spontaneity is kind of our thing. Before we secured the venue or picked our attire we called Kristen, we knew that not only would she be able to capture our day and energy perfectly but also help us with the details. Kristen helped guide our decisions in outfits, flowers, where we would stand for Vows, and made sure day of we got pictures with every person. The day was perfect, every person there was free to be themselves, including the kids, and Kristen was able to capture the beautiful unique energy of ever being.
