It has always been a dream to have Kyrsten shoot my wedding and she made all my dreams come true! From the first phone call, to getting the email with the wedding photos, it has been such an honor working with someone who has so much talent! Kyrsten is very quick to respond to any questions or concerns throughout the wedding planning process. She will always communicate and do her absolute best to respond as quickly as possible. When it came time for the wedding she was a complete rockstar! If you hire Kyrsten (which you should) this is what you’ll get: 1. The best photos ever!!! 2. A sidekick and a planner for the wedding.

During my time at school, Brooks Photography Institute, I studied multiple types of photography: fashion, commercial, food, nature, architecture, and portraiture. All of this experience has prepared me for bringing professionalism and creativity to every part of your day. I have photographed weddings for 10 years, during which time I learned the ins and outs of the industry. I have traveled to many countries, worked with celebrities and have been there to capture priceless moments for hundreds of people and their families. In 2014, I was recognized by Rangefinders Magazine as one of the 30 Rising Stars of Wedding Photography.

Lauren from the get-go was extremely friendly and easy to work with from our engagement photos to a full 3 day weekend of wedding festivities out of state. She feels like part of your family and is able to make everyone feel at ease while capturing images that truly blow your mind. Our mothers cannot stop talking about how much they love the moments she was able to capture, and we can truly say that we are blessed with not only amazing wedding photos, but a wonderful experience that we will continue to recommend again and again.

I'm a destination wedding & elopement photographer. I was born and raised in Rhode Island but I spend most of my time on flights documenting beautiful love stories all over the world. As a child all, I can remember was carrying around one of those Fujifilm cameras and taking photos of family and friends. Fast forward to 2017, I decided to take my hobby of photography seriously. Here I am years later running my business full-time & I love what I do. Capturing the raw moments and being the one to capture memories that you will look back on years to come.

Alyssa Morgan Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,600
  • Serves Santee, CA

June of 2012. Just two months after my mom was critically injured and hospitalized. I began using my camera as an emotional outlet. I started taking portraits for family and friends, and eventually, photographed a courthouse wedding. As time went on, it hit me: These photos are freaking important! And I knew from personal experience that these moments, & the people in them, aren't going to be here forever. That camera became so much more than an outlet. It gave me purpose. And now I see my job as an act of service to you. I'm honored to use my talents and skills to deliver what really matters: TANGIBLE MEMORIES OF YOU & THE ONES YOU LOVE

Alyssa was an absolute dream to work with!!She is incredibly easy to get along with and makes you feel comfortable and relaxed on the big day. The pictures came out better than I could’ve imagined, she captured everything perfectly!

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,700
  • Serves Santee, CA

We are passionate about photographing kind-hearted people who are unapologetically themselves, and creating a safe and beautiful space in the wedding world for LGBTQ+ folx. Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

Awarded Best of Zola
When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

I’m a New York raised / Alaska braised 5’0″ multi-passionate, photographer and filmmaker – I can appreciate the grit of a city, but I also have a small-town heart. I’m layers of hard work, deep empathy, and a Roseanne cackle-laugh. I’m all about having my cake, eating it too, and sharing some with you. I believe in celebrating family & friends, NY pizza, actin’ a fool, editing my photos to candid perfection (mostly this), and skipping the small talk.

Betsy is a lifestyle, wedding, and music photographer based in Los Angeles. She discovered photography as a creative outlet while studying theater at USC. Shortly after graduation, Betsy was hired as the tour photographer for Maroon 5 and documented 34 concerts across the country. Since then, Betsy has been on the road with One Direction, One Republic, Charlie Puth, and most recently Trevor Noah. Betsy's eye for candid moments and storytelling has led to photographing weddings around the world. She lives for documenting life and love through the lens. Betsy looks forward to hearing from you and bringing your vision to life!

I am writing this review wayyyy too late (over 2 years after my engagement photos were taken) and it has been eating me away inside because I need to give Betsy all the love and praise she deserves. Betsy photographed our engagement photos and would have done our wedding as well if she wasn’t already booked. As a wedding planner myself, I had worked with Betsy previously and she was always so fun, easy to work with and matched my energy on every level! She gets so excited when she knows she is ‘getting the shot’ that you can’t help but get excited too. I had a very specific vision for our engagement photos and she was 100% on board to make it happen. I love the photos so much and will treasure them forever as they document a very exciting time in our lives. I absolutely love working with Betsy and will definitely be booking her again in the future!

Husband + Wife Team. Film / Digital Photography Elements of California + Portugal. Intimate Weddings | Elopements Curating emotive + intimate imagery for modern lovers. Based in Lisbon, Portugal - Available worldwide.

Savannah & Rui were the first “vendors” that we booked; I hate to even refer to them as vendors because they were so much more! We felt at ease with them from the very first phone call and had no doubt that they would play an intricate part of our special occasion. They went above and beyond to assist in various aspects of the planning process and offered guidance when we faced uncertainty in making decisions. We were especially opinionated about how we wanted the photography to be done and they absolutely nailed it. They utilized a mix of digital, analog, black-and-white and video to document our multiple events. They provided us with some “sneak peeks”, which have held us over until we are able to see the finished product. Their easy-going attitude was a breath of fresh air when things didn’t go according to plan and, honestly, it played a big part in keeping us both calm when tensions got high. We cannot recommend them enough and have already referred several of our friends to utilize them for their weddings and events.

Lulan Wedding Photography and Videography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Santee, CA

Lulan studio is a premium wedding photography and videography studio based in Los Angeles. We specialize in cinematic style wedding photography and videography in LA. Our work encompasses wedding and engagement photography and videography, elopement and portrait sessions.

We found Lulan Studio because my husband was looking through our venue's instagram page and found a photo he loved that was taken by one of their photographers. The cinematic and photojournalistic style was exactly what we were looking for, and knew we found our photographer when we went to their website. The communication leading up to the wedding was always very quick and responsive. Alli was our photographer, and I cannot express enough how absolutely wonderful she was. Not only is she phenomenal at what she does and her work obviously speaks for itself, but she made the whole day fun and I always felt her looking out for us. When my veil kept coming off as I walked down the aisle, I was just going to forget it in the moment so I didn't have to deal with it. When I got to the front, I felt someone securing it in the back of my hair. At the time, I thought it was my mother-in-law since I had given it to her, but later I was told Alli said that I would regret it, and she put it on for me. In retrospect, she is absolutely right and I can't possibly say how appreciative and supported I felt by her the whole day. You will be overwhelmingly happy with Lulan Studio's work and Alli by your side.
