Indigo West 
Rating: 5.0 (10 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,900
  • Serves Sierra Madre, CA

I took up photography at the ripe age of 11 with a Polaroid I borrowed from an aunt. It quickly became my sketchbook as I worked to capture stills of the world and people around me. Those images have continued to pay emotional dividends throughout my life, helping me better understand what I have now come to see through a new scope. They are grounding, melancholic, funny and beautiful. Some of my most cherished possessions.

If you are looking for a photographer in San Diego, look no further than Daniel. We first worked with him for our engagement photos and knew immediately we had to book him for our wedding. Daniel is incredibly friendly and professional, but what we loved most was his eye for candid moments. He captured the true essence of our day and all the little things that made it special. We are completely in love with our photos! One of the highlights was his film photography option—the care package he sent with the negatives, prints, and a handwritten card was such a beautiful, personal touch. It’s clear he truly cares about his clients. Working with him was an amazing experience from start to finish, and being able to book our videographer through him made the entire process seamless. If you are in the Southern California area, you will not be disappointed! Thank you so much, Daniel, for giving us memories that we will cherish for a lifetime.

I don’t even know where to begin—ConneryFilm exceeded every expectation we had. From the first email to the final delivery of our wedding photos, everything was handled with so much care, professionalism, and heart. Connery has an incredible gift for turning real-life moments into cinematic memories. What really impressed us was how he paid attention to the little things—a subtle look, a soft smile, a quick laugh—things we didn’t even realize he had caught until we saw the final photos. And let me just say, the editing was flawless. The tones, the lighting, the composition... every image looked like it belonged in a magazine. Beyond the artistry, Connery was just amazing to work with—friendly, responsive, and calm under pressure. He made us feel comfortable and at ease and somehow made the whole experience feel effortless. If you’re lucky enough to book him, do it. You’re not just hiring a photographer—you’re investing in memories that will bring tears to your eyes for years to come. ConneryFilm is truly one of a kind.

Sierra Madre, CA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,500

In 2013, I took the camera from the photographer I was assisting at a wedding and haven't been able to put it down since. I believe capturing some of the most memorable moments in a couple's life is an honor and a privilege. My passion is fueled by the thought that the bride and groom will be able to look back on these images and relive one of the best days of their lives. The love, joy, camaraderie, and coming together of families to celebrate is electrifying, and photographing that energy gives me purpose. I never anticipated being a photographer, but im so happy photography found me.

Zej was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. From the very start, his communication was professional, prompt, and respectful. His work is truly top-notch - he has an incredible eye for capturing all the special moments that made our day so meaningful and memorable. I could not be more impressed with the entire experience working with Zej. We are thrilled with the results and any couple would be lucky to have Zej as their wedding photographer.

Randall de Leon Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (51 reviews)
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Sierra Madre, 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
Randall was recommended by our videographer (Call it Captivation Films, who we recommend). We really enjoyed his gallery and how natural his photos looked. We spoke to a few other photographers before him, but during our 1st video meeting he vibed well with us; he and I are both Fil-Am with history of working with pediatric patients (he as a PTA, me as a RN), and he and my husband shared a love for the same teams (Dodgers and Lakers). We were quick to book him after our meeting and are extremely happy with our decision to work with him! The photography packages he offers and his prices are amazing. Randall was great with communication and with providing us with recommendations (ie what to bring for flat lay, helping us pose, etc) prior to and day of the wedding. He did a site tour of our venue where we got to meet him and his kids in person. Prior to the ceremony, Randall worked with me, while the 2nd photographer worked with my husband. My husband said that the 2nd photographer fitted in well like one of the boys. He gave us a preview of the photos 1 week after our wedding and the full gallery of our wedding about 8-9 weeks after our wedding. We are so happy with all the photos! They are so beautiful and timeless, and they captured the essence of our wedding so well. **If you're looking for a photographer, Randall is your guy! I did the research for you :) Book him now! **

Bedrosian Photo 
Rating: 5.0 (37 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,250
  • Serves Sierra Madre, 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
Peter did a phenomenal job at capturing authentic, candid moments and balancing it with posed, formal photos. He is communicative and made us feel comfortable behind the camera. He is a great listener and executer on what style/aesthetic you want for your photos. We got our photos back quickly and they are all so beautiful and classic. We would use him again or recommend him to any of our friends.

Rivelle Media was an incredible choice for our wedding photography. From the moment we booked them, Mark and Ksenia were efficient, helpful, and extremely timely in their communication. On the day of the wedding, they put us at ease with their clear directions and attentive, caring approach.

10/10 Nick and I had the pleasure of working with Lulan and Sarah on our wedding day. They were exactly on time and prepared. They were so attentive, patient, and responsive to us. Never intrusive or demanding. Their direction felt very easy and natural; it made the unnatural process of taking hundreds of photos feel so seamless and easy. I loved that they took advantage of the space and venue. They have such a fantastic eye for composition and scale - my favorites are the wide shots that capture the cityscape behind. Their photos feel so timeless but fitting for the venue. We could not be happier with the results. I could not recommend Lulan and his team more. They were responsive to all of my questions throughout the planning process. Thank you to Lulan and Sarah for capturing our special day and giving us so many memories to cherish!

I cannot say enough good things about LAdigitalPhoto! When I first contacted them to inquire about videography, I got an instant response. Tom answered my millions of questions & sent me photos & videos they had shot at my venue in the past. I felt like a friend, not a customer so I was not hesitant to book. Tom did a great job of building an instant relationship & trust. We kept contact up until the day about details as they unfolded. Brides you know how planning can get the best of you & everything becomes a blur. I totally forgot about having a videographer the day of because everything was chaos until he showed up right on time, of course! We were blessed to get Christian who is an absolute gem! Him & my photographer instantly started working together & they totally clicked, it was awesome. Christian went above & beyond, not to mention he was such a sweetheart. He was an absolute joy to have around all day! He even buttoned up my dress for me because all my girls had nails on & couldn't do it. I would give 5,000 stars if I could! If I ever need videography again, I will never go to anyone else! Thank you, Tom & Christian!

I’m Adam—a Boston native who’s now roaming around California photographing everything I see. When I’m not behind the camera you can usually find me in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes, sipping a dirty martini with friends, jamming to Taylor Swift in the car, or taking my rescue pup Ollie to the park or on long neighborhood walks. I got my first film camera when I was 8, and it was love at first sight. Capturing your story is more than just a job for me. From destination elopements to parties of the century, I've seen it all and love every minute of a wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I were beyond lucky to have Adam as our wedding photographer this past September. Not only did he give us the gift of the most beautiful photos I've ever seen, but he was also such a joy to be around. He makes you feel comfortable during the whole experience and even played me a Taylor Swift themed playlist during our engagement photos!! What more could I ask for!! I will forever recommend Adam to everyone I know. He's truly is the best out there!

I’m Mysi (pronounced, boringly, “Missy”)! I’ve been at this thing for 12 years and I keep falling more and more in love with it all. Give me intimate micro-weddings, quirky dive bar weddings, raucous South Asian weddings... my team and I absolutely thrive in chaos and emotion. My specialty is catching the moments and those tiny moments in between. ✨✨✨

Awarded Best of Zola
We were nervous when it came to hiring a photographer, because after the whirlwind of the day, photos are one of the only things you get to keep once the day is over that help you relive the moments. We had heard so many horror stories and knew it was one of the most important decisions we were going to make. But thankfully, hiring Mysi was truly one of the BEST DECISIONS we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she was intentional, thoughtful, and so easy to work with. She made it a priority to meet with us in person—not just to talk logistics, but to get a feel for how we interact with each other. She wanted to understand our dynamic so she could best capture authentic, candid moments on the day. That personal touch meant a lot to us. She even took the time to drive up to our venue (a private residence) in advance to scout out the space. Watching her creativity come to life as she walked through the house and surrounding areas was such a fun and reassuring moment—we knew we were in great hands. We didn’t want just traditional posed photos; we wanted a mix of candid, artistic, and emotionally rich shots that told the full story of the day. She completely delivered. The final gallery was more beautiful than we could’ve imagined—natural, warm, and full of moments we didn’t even realize she had caught. We showed a few of the preview photos to people who didn't attend the wedding, and they all had nothing but compliments for how stunning the photos were. It's only been a few months, but we can't stop looking at the photos. They bring us back to the exact moment in time they were taken and we are able to relive the memories. Literally the only negative is that we can't figure out what our favorites are because they are all that great! We’re beyond grateful and couldn’t recommend Mysi more highly. If you want a photographer who truly sees you and puts her heart into every frame, she’s the one.

Welcome to Michael Teddy Photography, where artistry meets storytelling and your moments are preserved for a lifetime. I believe exceptional photography is about connection, vision, and capturing the authentic soul of your story. From our first conversation to your final gallery, you can expect a dedicated experience. Blending technical precision with an artistic approach, I frame the moments that matter most while thoughtfully editing every frame to perfection. Let’s create something breathtaking together.

Awarded Best of Zola
Weddings are indeed stressful. The whole process of trying to figure out what our kids wanted, needed or desired for their wedding creates a situation where there are just too many options out there and it gets confusing or even overwhelming. With Michael’s experience, he was able to cut through a lot of the questions and made things very very simple and manageable. His discussion with the happy couple beforehand gave him an idea as to where he wanted to go in a direction with the photos was a nice considerate touch. He arrived earlier in the day to work out all the finer details with the facility and during the wedding and even after made everything, not only very easy but fun and entertaining for everybody who participated. The quality of the photos and the uniqueness and time put into each one of them may this a great experience. I can’t recommend him enough.

Stephanie Hanno Photography specializes in fine art wedding photography with a documentary and photojournalistic approach. Southern California based but travels worldwide. Capturing your special moments to last a lifetime.

I messaged Stephanie a couple weeks before my proposal and I can tell just by direct messaging how helpful she would be. She was very supportive in my idea and also added some great ideas of her own. I see people often talk about how photographers could’ve done better or they wish how their photographer would’ve done this or that. With Stephanie my fiancé and I were able to come out with everything we dreamed of and more. She took the perfect amount of initiative through the whole process. I can speak for both my fiancé and I when I say we were blown away by not only the quality of the actual photos but just how unique they were. We fell in love with so many of them it was the hardest thing to try not to post every single one. I’m looking forward to working with her again on future family photos, events and most importantly memorable moments.

While some photographers emphasize their gear or trendy post-processing, I take pride in subject-photographer interaction - the relation I build with clients, picking up on nuances in pose and expression while we shoot, anticipating the viewers' response - because ultimately, that's how photographs that matter to us are created. I'm a native New Yorker who found myself relocating to Los Angeles and making it my home. Wherever you'd like to have your wedding, it would be my pleasure to be your photographer.

It was a delight to work with Stephen for our wedding. We couldn’t be happier with the photos from both our Hindu ceremony as well as our western wedding. He was flexible enough to work beyond the original number of hours on a hot Malibu day for our Hindu wedding. He sourced a great second photographer to cover all the moments in our western wedding. The pictures are mesmerizing. He really listened to what we wanted and lent his talent to provide us with terrific and special images. He captured so many candid pictures of our family and friends and it has given us a lot of joy to look at them. Stephen was professional, considerate and wonderful to work with. And his pictures show that he is a true artist! Look forward to working with him again!

Gabbie Burseth Photo 
Rating: 5.0 (14 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $7,200
  • Serves Sierra Madre, CA

Gabbie Burseth grew up documenting everything and saving mementos in empty Christmas boxes. After studying at the Grady School of Journalism at the University of Georgia, she discovered an affinity for weddings and their accompanying treasures. Her philosophy as a wedding photographer is to observe with as little interference as possible — no faking it, no do-overs, no “for the camera”. Her biggest desire is for couples to be present at their wedding, not stuck in a photoshoot. Her work is punctuated by rich and vibrant color, the timeless quality of analog film, and a sense of humor found in fleeting moments.

For our wedding experience, my husband and I were looking for a photographer that specialized in candids— someone who was focused on capturing natural moments versus the formal, posed ones. Gabbie delivered. She photographed our at-home engagement session, our typhoon-ridden wedding day, and threw in a post-wedding session for free due to circumstances out of our control on the wedding day. Our venue was not prepared for the day to be rained out, so there was minor chaos that I learned of after the fact. Gabbie and her second shooter never let on to any mishaps or miscommunications on the venue’s behalf and fought through the absolute freezing rain with us all day. We deeply cherish all of the photos she took… from us dancing together in the kitchen of our first home, to us bundled up under an umbrella, kissing in the rain after the ceremony, to priceless images of our friends and family breaking it down on the dance floor at the reception, and to the bridal portraits she took of us months after the wedding when she wasn’t satisfied with what we were able to get on the actual wedding day. We have nothing but great things to say about Gabbie and would highly recommend!

Welcome. I'm D e r e c k. I've been doing photography and videography since 2017. It wasn't until the pandemic of last year that I decided to take a leap of faith and make it a full-time career. I feel like I've always had a burning passion for photography and editing, I love photography because it captures a moment in time. Whether that moment is your wedding day or an annual family portrait, pictures enable us to relive and remember special occasions again + again. Why I specifically dove into Wedding Photography? Simple!! My love for creativity and seeing passionate couples that aren't afraid to show their personalities

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Dereck for an after-wedding celebration for our son and daughter-in-law and were very happy with the experience and the results. From start to finish, Dereck was professional, responsive, organized, flexible, and punctual. He scheduled prep meetings with me before the event and came fully prepared with backup cameras and batteries—including for drone footage—which was especially important since the couple arrived a bit later than expected. Everything ran smoothly and without stress. What sets Dereck apart, however, is his storytelling approach. He partners with a talented videographer to produce a beautifully edited five-minute montage that captures the essence of the evening. This isn't a music-only highlight reel—it thoughtfully weaves together background music with dubbed audio: excerpts from speeches, guest messages to the couple, laughter, and candid moments. The result was an emotionally rich snapshot of the night—far more meaningful (and watchable!) than the typical two- to five-hour video many videographers deliver. Dereck handled the golden hour and night-time lighting beautifully. These included candid guest shots, posed and portrait photos, and lovely images of the couple alone. His fees were very reasonable, especially when compared to other “content creators” we considered who offered only iPhone footage and music at a similar price point. Dereck’s work was on an entirely different level. We are absolutely thrilled with the results and wholeheartedly recommend Dereck to anyone looking for a photographer who is not only technically skilled, but also an exceptional visual storyteller.

Since receiving our wedding photos from Jess, several of my friends and family members (including 2 professional photographers!) have asked me for her contact info because of how amazing her photos are!! When we started looking for a wedding photographer, we knew that we needed to find someone with a great eye for candids, who wouldn't make our pictures feel too staged, who had a fun/funky vibe like us, and who could handle wrangling my extremely large family (full of very opinionated people) for family photos, and Jess handled everything with ease! I feel so lucky that we found Jess, and I cannot recommend her more. Jess made everyone feel comfortable throughout the entire wedding day, and even gave guidance to family members who are normally awkward in photos (e.g. suggesting ways to pose to make them more comfortable). Jess went above and beyond throughout the entire planning process, checking in with us, getting to know us, and even coming to a venue walkthrough so she could get a sense of the space! I am so grateful for all of the work Jess put into our wedding, and the photos turned out better than I could have ever imagined. I rarely even like photos of myself, but I honestly am so in love with the ones that Jess took that I jump on every opportunity to whip out my phone and share them with friends!
