  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Temecula, CA

The moments you remember most aren’t usually the ones that were planned. My approach is documentary-driven and unhurried, focused on connection, movement, and the quiet in-between moments that tend to mean the most later. I work best with couples who value presence over perfection and want images that feel honest, intimate, and timeless. Whether your day is big or small, traditional or unconventional, my goal is to create space for you to be fully yourselves — and to tell your story as it naturally unfolds.

“Sharyce was amazing from the first phone call we had. Sharyce quickly became not only our photographer but a confidant and friend. She traveled from CA to WI to shoot our wedding and she was worth every single penny! Her kindness, leadership, eye for detail, creativeness and her vision brought our wedding together and we are dying to see our full wedding album!! Book her! Now!!!! Sharyce holds a level of professionalism that is unmatched, while simultaneously being a friend. As my wife and I are apart of the LGBTQ community, we would love to give her a shoutout for her love and safety towards us and our love. We will forever be grateful to Sharyce for capturing our day and building a friend in the process. Thank you for capturing every detail with so much love.”

I'm Nancy, photographer and creative ringleader behind Easton Studios. Fourteen years in and I'm somehow more obsessed than when I started. You can be a total natural in front of the camera or never know what to do with your hands, but my job is the same: make it fun and make it you. I'll step in and direct when it'll make the photo better and let the real moments unfold exactly as they happen. You'll always find me geeking out about lighting, strolling around like I've lost something when really I'm looking for the best light to "speak" to me. Hundreds of weddings in and that search for the right light never gets old.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I could not have asked for anything better than what Nancy and Lori did for my husband and I's wedding. Nancy was quick to respond to my questions leading up to the wedding, and made me feel at ease every step of the way. On the day of the wedding, Nancy and Lori were our biggest supporters and cheerleaders throughout the day. Nancy brought our vision to life, and made sure to catch every sweet memory throughout the day. She quickly got preview photos to us after the wedding so we could get a sneak peak at the most beautiful photographs we could imagine, and we cannot wait to see the full gallery soon. I cannot recommend Easton Studios enough!!”

We are Emry Photography, A husband & wife photography team turned photo+cinema collective. We have a knack for turning strangers into friends & we love a good party. We work with the best couples in the world, telling love stories truthfully & without boundaries. We show up when you ask us to & don't leave until your story is told. We may take you off roading or steal you a few minutes for sunset, because we aren't satisfied until we know something couldn't be done any better. Our work is characterized by light, color and story through unguarded moments. We can't wait to tell your story.

“I've had the pleasure of working with Emry as a wedding coordinator for years. Behind the scenes, they are AMAZING to work with. They always have the client's best interest in mind, they're flexible with changes, they stay on time with photos (which sadly, is rare these days!), and they go above and beyond to help make the wedding day go smoothly. That's why when I got engaged, they were one of the first people I texted. I knew I’d be able to relax and enjoy the day with Emily and Ryan there, and they exceeded every expectation. They are incredibly organized, supportive from start to finish, and the photos speak for themselves... absolutely beautiful. Their entire team has such a creative eye for detail, and they make everything feel effortless. If you’re not used to being in front of a camera, they guide you every step of the way, from how to stand, where to put your hands, and even making sure family photos look cohesive (no sunglasses, no phones in pockets, etc.). My husband also had a dream picture he wanted taken with his motorcycle, and the dedication they put into getting the perfect shot is unmatched haha I can’t express how grateful I am to the Emry team. They played such a huge role in making our day feel seamless, and I’m beyond thankful they were a part of it.”

Hi! I'm Jess, a wedding photographer based in Southern California. I'm passionate about wedding photography and making this experience positive and unforgettable for my clients. Whether your celebration is an intimate gathering or a grand event, I focus on telling your story in a way that feels genuine and effortless. My favorite moments to capture during wedding days are the grandparent hugs, parent reactions and that walk back down the aisle full of happiness after saying your I do's.

“My husband and I hired Jess to do our engagement/wedding photos and we are so happy with the results!! Jess is lovely to work with and had great communication throughout the process. My husband and I are both very awkward in front of the camera but she did an amazing job guiding us through different poses and capturing flattering angles. She has a good eye for picking out photo ops/backdrops and caught all of the special moments at our wedding. Not to mention, I absolutely love her editing style; it's classy and timeless and not overdone. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a quality photographer they can trust!!”

  • Serves Temecula, CA

Hi, I'm Alyssa, the heart behind Blyssful Photography. Over ten years ago, I picked up a camera simply because I loved capturing moments when my first son was born. What started as a creative passion savoring every sweet moment I had as a new mom quickly turned into something so much bigger; a career built around celebrating love, connection, and the people who matter most.

“I’ve known Alyssa since we were little so I know her as a super close friend for YEARS but getting to watch her photography journey from the very beginning has been so special. I remember when she first started and now seeing where she is now makes me so proud. She’s worked so hard and it TRULY shows in every photo she takes! What I love most isn’t just how talented she is, it’s who she is as a person. She has this way of making you feel comfortable and heard from the second you meet her. It doesn’t matter if you’ve known her forever or just met her she makes you feel like family. She actually listens to what you want, cares about the little details & wants your photos to feel like YOU and your family and what that looks like to you! ALSO her pricing is SO reasonable for the quality you receive (which is unbelievable). She pours so much time, heart & effort into every session and you can DEFINITELY see that in all her photos! I also know how hard she works after she takes your photos. When it comes to editing and perfecting them as much as she can to get them back to you as fast as she can! She’s on it!!! Her photography is soooo worth it and I can honestly say you’ll never regret booking with her, ever. She is seriously the best. I live in a different state and I will forever use her even if that means driving to her state to get photos done by her!!! Alyssa is one of the kindest, most genuine people I know!! Honestly couldn’t recommend her more. If you’re thinking about booking with her, DO IT. You’ll leave with the most beautiful photos, of course, but you’ll also feel like you made a new friend and family member!! I promise you’ll continue to come back time after time. She’s amazing! We love Alyssa and her family!! She has the two sweetest boys!”

I’m a thrift shopper who loves cozy blankets and good pasta. Now that I'm a mom (of twins!), I'm reminded every day of how important the little moments are and how important it is for me to capture them before they're gone! I like to think that my style is natural and genuine :) I smile big, love to laugh but also might cry at your first dance.

“My husband and I hired Emily as our photographer after a friend of mine posted her wedding photos to her Instagram over a year ago. I wasn't keen on the venue's recommendations and I couldn't seem to find a photographer that was worth the money. Thank goodness for my friend posting her wedding photos at the time she did because I was about to pick any photographer for the sake of it. Her wedding shots were so gorgeous! The veil shots? Chef's kiss! I reached out to Emily and we hopped on a call a few days later. She is so easy to talk to and relatable. We went over things about what I want and what to expect. The day of our wedding she went right into the groove of things even though my mom showed up an hour late to the venue for photos. I was stressing and she made sure I forgot about that! She got shots I didn't even think of. She made those awkward laughing photos super fun. I cannot thank Emily and her second shooter, David, enough.”

Documentary-inspired wedding photography for couples who value honest moments, timeless imagery, and photographs that feel like home. My approach is very candid and story-driven, focused on capturing the little in-between moments that often end up meaning the most.

I’ve always been drawn to nostalgia and the way photographs can instantly bring you back to a feeling. More than anything, I want your gallery to feel warm, personal and full of life. Like memories frozen in time.

Hey there, I’m Kelsey! I’m a destination wedding and elopement photographer with a love for capturing charm locally and around the world. I'm inspired by those intimate, fleeting moments—like your hands intertwined or that infectious, spontaneous laugh—that tell your unique story. My goal is to turn these memories into artful, timeless photographs. Whether you’re celebrating love, family, or life’s special moments, I’m here to document your genuine connection and joy. Let’s create stunning images that become cherished treasures for years to come!

“We couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our big day! Everything was of course super stressful for our wedding, but Kelsey made this part of our planning seamless and stress-free. We told her what style we were going for and she totally nailed it. She made sure to pay attention to the details we wanted captured (and a couple insecurities we mentioned) She was super easy to work with, laid out a detailed plan for the day, and went with the flow when plans changed. Our photos turned out beyond perfect and we literally want to put them everywhere in our house. Highly recommend Kelsey!”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Brianna for a handful of weddings and projects now. As a wedding planner I can tell you with full confidence that Brianna is seasoned, friendly and very talented at what she does! She is super easy to work with, and as a fellow wedding vendor that is key for us. She helps couples feel comfortable when shooting and keeps with the timeline which we love. Best of all, she delivers the most beautiful photos. Can't recommend Brianna enough!”
