I would love to hear about your day to see if we're a fit! Can't wait to hear from you!

We were completely overwhelmed when we saw our wedding pictures! The photos' color, clarity, and authenticity perfectly capture what we remember of the day. There are also great shots of things we didn't remember, like us canoodling in the venue's background. We felt like Katherine was part of our wedding party, not just a vendor. She was great at directing us for group photos, ensuring everyone was in the right spot without feeling rushed. She is funny and a total photography pro, and now we want her to take all of our images. By the end of the wedding, we had friends asking for her information and complimenting her left and right. She helped everyone stick to the timeline, adjust clothing, engage children, and remind everyone to laugh, breathe, and smile!

Hi there! I'm Khoa, a San Diego based wedding photographer who enjoys spending time with good people and road trips. I love all things weddings because witnessing couples' happiness brings me joy and fuels my creativity. I want to create photographs that can stand the test of time so couples can relive their day years from now and for generations to come.

Khoa was our wedding photographer from getting ready until the end of the night and we had an amazing experience with him the entire time! He is incredibly sweet and easy to work with, and made us feel very comfortable from the get-go. He was very thoughtful and thorough in using all aspects of our venue to provide amazing photos capturing the whole day. He worked very efficiently with us leading up to the ceremony to get us photos while still keeping us hidden away from our arriving guests, and then, during the ceremony and reception, he was amazingly unobtrusive but still able to capture all the great moments of our night! Khoa sent us a few preliminary photos which were all so perfect for personalizing our thank you cards. Once we got the full complement of photos from him we were blown away by the quality, editing, and energy he was able to capture from our wedding day. He is immensely generous with the number of photos he provides, and we have to stress that he somehow manages to deliver on both quantity AND quality. He is also very talented in composition and there were more than several photos that we never noticed him getting - everything perfectly captured the energy and feeling of the day and felt like we were reliving it again. Overall he feels like the complete package and we recommend him without hesitation!!!

I’m here to capture nostalgic memories and help you remember the emotions behind the photos. I love capturing those truly candid moments. The kind of photos that put you right back in the moment five, ten, fifty years later. I'm a Southern California based photographer that will travel wherever you want to document your love! I'm constantly exploring with laid-back couples that want to capture genuine moments about their relationship. When I'm not taking pictures, you can usually find me hanging out with my loved ones, hiking, watching sitcoms, or taking a spontaneous trip.

Awarded Best of Zola
Emily was truly a dream to work with during our engagement session. From brainstorming photo locations to fit with the theme of our wedding, to outfit inspiration, to timing to utilize the best lighting... she was on top of it all. We were blown away by the quality of our photos, both on film and digital. We had such variety of photos to choose from (settings, poses, lighting, angles) etc. One of our biggest insecurities was looking comfortable in front of the camera and not too "posed". Emily was wonderful a guiding us behind the camera and giving us prompts to make the photos feel natural and genuine. I cannot recommend her enough! Plus, we wanted to incorporate our new puppy into the photoshoot and Emily gave us all the tips and guidance to make sure that went smoothly! The extra photos with the pup are just perfect!

Hi there! I'm Kayla, and I'm so glad you're here! I've spent the past six years capturing love, beauty, and joy across Southern California. Photography has been my passion since I was five, and turning it into a career has been the most rewarding journey. One of my clients shared: "The pictures came out beautiful and had my mom in tears.

If you’re looking for someone to capture your special moments, I’d love to help you create memories that last a lifetime!

Kayla was absolutely amazing to work with! From the moment she arrived, her sweet and bubbly personality made everyone feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She captured our wedding day so beautifully…every emotion, every moment, and all the little details we might have missed in the chaos of the day. I’m so obsessed with her flat lays and how she incorporated our special keepsakes. I had mentioned wanting my colors to really pop, and she captured them perfectly! Her eye for detail is incredible, and she somehow managed to make every photo feel natural yet timeless. The turnaround time was so quick… we received a sneak peek soon after the wedding, which made us even more excited for the full gallery. Kayla also brought along a second shooter who was just as wonderful, and together they didn’t miss a single moment. We’re beyond grateful to have these photos to look back on forever. I couldn’t recommend Kayla enough to any couple looking for someone who not only takes beautiful photos but also brings such warmth and joy to their day.

I love hats and want to wear them everyday (over 20 hats in my collection). I’ve been shooting beautiful weddings for almost 10 years. I secretly cry at every wedding.

The creativity and fun that she brought to the wedding were palpable, making her a hit with everyone who attended.

From the table settings to the rings to the families, Irina was able to capture every moment with a level of skill and expertise that is truly spectacular. It's not easy to capture the joy and love that are present at a wedding, but Irina did it effortlessly, resulting in a set of photographs that truly capture the essence of our special day. Beyond her obvious talent as a photographer, Irina also proved to be a trustworthy professional who was dedicated to ensuring that her clients were happy with the final result. It's clear that she takes great pride in her work, and her commitment to providing her clients with the best possible experience is evident in everything that she does.

I was raised in the Sierra Nevada foothills of California. I was drawn to photography in middle school and would enter photos of our family pets or family backpacking trips in our local county fair. My passion for photography grew while working as a hiking guide in Yosemite National Park. I mean… who wouldn’t want a stunning photo of Half Dome? El Capitan? Yosemite Falls? But it has been photographing wedding and couples that I find the most fun and rewarding. I have found loving hearts, wild souls, and adventurous spirits to be my people. I strive to visually capture the “spirit” of my subjects and record an emotional memory of the occasion.

From the very first email to the delivery of our final gallery, Brittany made the entire process feel effortless. She was responsive, organized, and genuinely excited for us, which made us feel so supported and cared for. Every step of the way, she communicated clearly and made sure we felt confident and comfortable. What stood out the most was how personal she made the experience. She remembered the little details we mentioned, checked in to see how we were doing, and made us feel like our wedding was just as important to her as it was to us. Those thoughtful touches made us feel extra special and truly valued as clients. During our session, Brittany was such a calming and encouraging presence. She guided us when we needed direction but also gave us space to be ourselves. We never felt awkward in front of the camera because she created an environment that was fun, natural, and full of genuine joy.

I am really passionate about my job. I love meeting and connecting with people. Making them laugh and having fun during the photo session is one of my main purposes. I love when clients they tell me they don't like to have their pictures taken, that is a challenge; and I promise I will change their minds. When you put your heart and soul in what you do, everything comes naturally.

I would never recommend any other photographer besides YC Photography, incredible professionalism, dedication to her Craft, and an overwhelming passion and dedication to every customer. No job to big and no job to small. Highly Recommend to anyone!!!!

We are excellent and experienced photographer and videographer for weddings and engagements. I have been a lifetime photography hobbyist since I was a teenager. I enjoy taking pictures and playing around with different advanced equipment. I am confident that my work is just as good or even better than what you paid $3000 for the most professional photographer for a wedding. I am using a top-notch full frame Nikon DSLR camera with top notch Nikon lenses. I also have a Sony 4K camcorder that can record excellent 4K videos. Therefore, we can be your excellent videographer too for your wedding or party.

I cannot recommend Wellington and his videographer from Artistic Pro Photography enough! They had worked with us as a DJ for a wedding and a party. They were very friendly with us and helped us on moving our equipment. I saw their photos and videos from the wedding gallery and they are very good. The bride and groom are very happy with their works. We would love to work with them again or give them referrals.
