Sandra Yvette Photography

  • Serves Solana Beach, CA

TOMORROW ISN’T PROMISED TO ANYONE, SO IT’S UP TO YOU TO DOCUMENT YOUR TODAY. YOUR RIGHT NOW. YOUR LIFE. Everybody has a story and I’m fascinated to learn yours. I come from a close knit family of 7, grew up in Sacramento, CA, and now have a super supportive husband while raising 2 fun, spunky children in San Diego, CA that mean the world to me. I believe that FAMILY IS EVERYTHING. I promise to capture the details, but most importantly, the people and moments that surround you on your wedding day.

Sandra shot our engagement shoot and did such an amazing job!! The pictures are beautiful but most of all she is such a fun and loving person to be around and that truly made all the difference. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and made the whole experience so fun. She was wonderful and I would definitely recommend!!

Hiii! I'm Kayley and I'm so glad you're here. I’m energized by meeting new people, so please say hello! I’m a go with the flow kind of person – which explains my love for spontaneous trips and the excitement of weddings. I love to dance and have a good time (seriously, I WILL be out there on the dance floor with you).

Awarded Best of Zola
Kayley was recommended to me by a good friend who had worked with her for years. To say that I was impressed with her work would be an understatement - she blew me away. Not only did she fit within my budget needs, she came up with a plan that captured everything I wanted. My husband had a photographer there when he proposed, so we didn't do the traditional engagement and then wedding sessions. We ended up with an amazing motorcycle couples shoot, a boudoir shoot, and wedding coverage. Kayley was quick on her feet at our wedding - we had 300 guests spread out across a decent sized park with multiple buildings. She not only kept up, she also kept it together during an insane thunder storm at the end of the night! It was such a lovely and easy experience for my husband and I while we planned such a large wedding, we will definitely be coming back to her for future photography needs!

  • Serves Solana Beach, CA

Have you ever met someone you just knew immediately was your person? We bet you have since you're here now! In 2015, Paul was the photographer at Crystal’s younger brother’s wedding, where she was a bridesmaid. We loved everything about that special day, but from the moment we locked eyes it was like time stood still. We knew then and there that we just hit the jackpot! Not only did we meet at a wedding, but we have both been in the events industry for well over a decade. Paul Douda Photography & Video offers full service wedding coverage for your big day in San Diego and beyond! We love to travel and destination weddings are a favorite!

We were looking for a photographer to capture our wedding day. We had specific requests one of them being we wanted the photos to be of the actual day as it was happening, not staged photos. Paul heard our request and went about the wedding mostly unnoticed, except where the group shots or special moments needed to be memorable. Crystal did the Video OMG. She captured everything we asked for and more. And the video trailer she made for us, wow!!! The first time I watched it I was thinking is this for real!!! Way over and above what we expected! I watch it all probably once a month. The first month 20 times a day and I still cry.. I love to send the video link to friends and Family. She made us look so good. Chad my husband and I went to a wedding show at the Grant hotel and literally search high and low for a photographer. Everyone had a package to sell, however no one listened to what we were trying to capture. When I said we search high and low I mean it. We found Crystal in the basement of the hotel, Chad fell in love with crystal first, being next to a brewery stand probably helped!! She listened to everything we were trying to accomplish for our special day. Even customized a special package based on our requests. Nothing was ever a problem or issue. The final results,Love these guys!!!!!!! Literally trust them for your day let them spoil you like they did for us. You will NOT be disappointed, not one bit!!!!!!!!!!

I’m Cecilia, a photographer, entrepreneur, and creator. For me, photography is more than just my job, it’s a central part of who I am. Since I was a kid I’ve felt the need to document life as I see it, to capture beautiful moments that last. I am so in love with this art form in every sense. It brings me such joy and fulfillment to be able to document people’s stories and bring them to life through my lens. At the end of the day, I do this job out of love. Love for people, the earth, and connection. I want to capture who you are as people. Your energy and vibrancy are at the heart of what I do and I wouldn’t trade that for anything.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cecelia is everything you want in a wedding photographer - professional, creative, approachable, chill, and very intuitive as to reading you and your partner while taking photos. With natural direction, she let us be in the moment and captured the magic of just us being us. She made us feel very comfortable and our photos did not feel posed or forced, she was amazing at giving direction for a pose and letting us sink into it, capturing a lot of natural candid in-between moments - which is what I was wanting! She has a genuine light about her and puts so much heart into her work, and it shows. We met Cecelia through Instagram and had her take our styled engagement photos. She was very communicative beforehand and was responsive to my personal vision for the photos. She helped with wardrobe choices, met us on location, was a joy to be around. She also delivered our photo gallery in a very timely fashion. Oh and the photos - WE. WERE. BLOWN. AWAY. They were everything we wanted, and her edits were perfection - not too much, and still captured what the light looked like that evening. We are so glad Cecelia was able to capture these unforgettable moments in our life, we can’t thank her enough!

I'm Erin. I'm a photographer, traveler, and wide-eyed wonderer. I split my time between the Midwest and my bungalow near the beach in Oceanside, CA. My favorite pastimes include exploring Disneyland, watching Schitts Creek & Ted Lasso, and cuddling my dog. I have a loud laugh. I love cabernet franc, chocolate chip cookies, and I'm on a constant search for the best tacos in the world.

Erin is an incredibly warm person and immediately made us feel comfortable during our engagement shoot. We had never done a shoot like this and were nervous and worried about feeling awkward, but her easygoing demeanor and natural instructions took all the stress off of us and we really enjoyed the experience. Erin has a detailed eye and a talent for capturing the natural beauty of the outdoors which was important to us. After our first great experience, we asked her to shoot our wedding as well on a cliff overlooking Sedona, AZ. She captured the scenery and golden hour lighting in breathtaking shots that were flattering of us and perfectly captured the grandeur of the red rocks around us. We will treasure the photos forever. Thank you Erin!

INQUIRE ON MY WEBSITE! I've been doing this for 8 years now, & it really does get better with time. There are countless memories of laughter, holding back tears (mostly happy ones), surprises, & moments that my heart didn't see coming. The opportunity to meet couples that become friends is something I will always feel blessed to have. I love building that connection as much as possible! You two together is your own little piece of art. At least that’s how I see it! So with that being said, I don’t want to try & copy someone else’s art. How you interact together should be captured purely.

We hired Emma for our engagement pictures and our wedding photos and working with her was AMAZING. From the personalized welcome gift, to the clear direction during shoots, working with her was a breeze. She always had time for any of our questions and was so willing to help with whatever we needed! Please hire her for your photos for a stress free experience.

She also works with you on any specific requests you may have, she doesn’t stick to just one style. I wanted lots of movement and filmy type of pictures and she did an amazing job:) Seriously couldn’t be happier with the results

I believe that love inspires art. Your wedding day will most likely be a blur of joy, nerves, and excitement with some extraordinary moments in between. Using both film and digital mediums, I balance a combination of both editorial and photojournalistic styles with a fine art approach. This collaboration will allow you both to fully enjoy each and every moment, as we tell the story of your wedding day. Wedding photography is an investment that lasts a lifetime, it’s the part of your wedding day that lives on. This is your love story, told in a classic, authentic, and timeless way.

Here is your super sweet review: My husband and I love our engagement and wedding photos! I especially loved working with her as she is organized, professional, warm, so enthusiastic, and passionate about what she does!! She was also encouraging and made us feel comfortable during our engagement/maternity photo session and wedding day. I am so happy she was there on our wedding day, as she was a joy to be around and all of her pictures she sent us are beautiful!

I'm a caretaker by nature. (Enneagram fan? I'm a 2w3) I love to laugh and am often told I have a calming presence. My friends tell me I have a huge heart and am a good listener. Except my husband says I am a horrible listener but I think that's just to him! I love cats, craft beer, burlesque and radical self care!

Awarded Best of Zola
I met Melissa working in the industry on one of the most difficult shoots I've ever been on. That night she was a total professional and amazing photographer and we quickly bonded. I trust her so much that when it was time for my wedding she was who I asked to capture it. She travelled to France to photograph our wedding and was there like one of our family. She kept us calm and having fun in the stressful moments and her creativity made some of the most incredible wedding photos we could have imagined. Now years later Melissa is the person we call first when it is time to capture our family growing. If her photographs aren't enough to convince you, take it from someone who filmed weddings for 13 years; Melissa is the person you want capturing your day.

My photography style is built both out of a love of cinematography and a love of making the moments I'm involved in genuinely special. This is also the coolest job in the world how could I not be jazzed about this?

We had Kris do our engagement photos and he’s one of the best. As someone who’s not the most comfortable in front of the camera, Kris was very patient and accommodating. He’s game for any and all ideas, as one of locations for our photo shoot was inside our local taco shop. He was able to consolidate our ideas into something much more manageable and created a beautiful product. Kris is extremely knowledgeable in his craft, and also just a sweet person who loves his job! His turnaround with our photos was also very quick; he got us back our entire gallery a week after the shoot. I would recommended him to any and everyone!

I could sit here and write novels about how much I love her and the work she does but, Bottom line is hire Paige Hill for any photography need. You will NEVER regret your decision!

Miranda was referred to us by good friends of ours. I saw their engagement shoot pictures and they were all amazing. Miranda has the ability to make even the most akward/camera shy (aka me) feel so comfortable and have it not translate in the photos. She has a great editing style, I didn't want to overly bright washed out look. Our pictures were rich with color, and just moody enough. After our engagement shoot and being very happy with the photos we booked Miranda for our wedding. Fast forward to March 2021 and our original venue extending their closure, we ended up re-planning our wedding in 3 weeks. Miranda was kind enough to create a special package to accommodate our short micro wedding. All of our pictures turned out amazing! Highly recommend Miranda for any photography needs.

Every photograph I take is a little pieces of my heart that I leave with every one of my couples. I'm committed to documenting the heirloom moments of your family legacy. I am a historian curating timeless moments for you to live over and over again. I see beauty in everyone and it is my joy and privilege to show my clients how beautiful they are. <3

If I have the option to work with Tara, that is who I will hire to second for me, without a doubt. I have literally flown her to locations where I didn't "have" to because she really is so lovely to work with. I know I don't need to manage Tara at all, she know how to get the photographs that the clients are dreaming of without being intrusive or overhearing. She is professional, and kind, and so fun to be around. I wish 2020 weddings were happening just so we could shoot together, dang it Corona.

No one could figure out how to bustle my dress but maze stepped in and literalllyyyy saved my dress. She also fixed my eyelashes when my glue was coming off and made sure my hair was perfect in the photos. A woman of MANY talents! I will forever cherish our photos.

Amanda and KC were amazing! My fiancé and I were hesitant to take engagement photos at all—we are both awkward and don’t pose well for photos. Amanda and KC were very relaxed, casual and FUN! They made us laugh the entire time and everything felt so easy & comfortable. AND THE PICTURES ARE BEAUTIFUL! First, we don’t look awkward (big win). And second, the settings/backdrops/lighting they chose were exactly what we were looking for. Great experience and would highly recommend for anyone looking for engagement photos.

We have enough stress in our everyday lives, and I refuse to add any more of it into yours. That's why I do everything I can to make your photography experience as stress-free as possible. This means answering your emails quickly, freely sharing all of my knowledge & expertise with you, and walking alongside you throughout your entire planning process.

Liz is a gem! She is so much fun to work with and truly caring of her clients. I’m a planner so working with a photographer that truly understand the meaning of working as a team means makes a huge difference on how well the day will go. She was so on top of everything and didn’t miss a beat. She has such an amazing and happy easy-go personality that makes working with her so much fun! She captures rad and intimate moments so seamlessly. If you want someone that truly loves what they do and cares about you, she’s your gal!

Fueled by equal parts caffeine and passion, I spend my days capturing images that make you stop, smile and wish that time would slow down. Your story, your love, is beautiful and I can't wait to capture it in photographs you will treasure for years to come. I believe in real moments and heartfelt conversations on the back patio. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.

We wish we could give Cate 10 stars - she is seriously a ROCKSTAR talent! She seamlessly captured everyone's personality, and let us just live in our special day. We loved watching her get excited about awesome shots, and truly enjoying what she does. In addition to being an incredible professional, she's also a BLAST to have around, has all the positive energy, is an organizational master, and was a big source of calm in the midst of a crazy day. Our photos were extremely important to us, as the majority of our guests traveled from our of town and we had tons of special moments and memories we wanted to capture. We are absolutely thrilled with how they turned out - cannot recommend her enough!
