My husband and I couldn't have been more thrilled with our experience with Brittney! From the moment I met her, I immediately knew I wanted her to be our photographer. At a wedding showcase with 30 other photographers, she was the only one I felt comfortable with. She felt like a friend from the start. Before the wedding, Brittney was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process, keeping us informed and helping us plan all the perfect shots and details. She knew what to ask and was so patient with us throughout the entire planning process. One of the standout moments from the wedding was when our 1-year-old daughter, who was the flower girl, had a full-on meltdown. Despite the chaos, Brittney was incredibly patient and worked some kind of magic to capture the most gorgeous and creative photos with our screaming toddler! I truly dont know how she did it but we got great shots of everyone. She was even patient with our dog who had to take frequent breaks from the heat! The pictures turned out amazing, and we are so grateful for her patience, her creativity, and her ability to capture the true essence of the day—even the most challenging moments. We had a very small outside ceremony in Long Beach with only our immediate families. Brittney felt like an extension of our family being there. I truly felt so comfortable with her. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also calm, professional, and a joy to work with!

They explored our venue ahead of time to find the best photo spots, guided us through the entire process, and delivered our photos with a super quick turnaround. Laura and her team really took the time to get to know my husband and I, which made the whole experience feel so personal.

As a lifelong dancer, Loretta established herself as one of the most sought after dance photographers. Her love and understanding of movement gives her a unique insight into capturing life in motion. The pursuit for finding people in their most candid moments is a passion that has taken Pamela all over the world. Capturing people in their most raw and honest moments has become the foundation of her “heart-led” photography.

Monique and Laura were a dream to work with. I could tell they love what they do because our photos really show that. They had to wrangle up quite a party for formal photos (we have a huge family). And they did it with patience and grace. The background photos of our beloved friends and family are wonderful. Highly recommend and would use them for any future events.

I can’t stop looking at the photos and video, they captured every emotion perfectly. From the bride walking down the aisle to our family laughing during dinner, everything was documented beautifully. They were incredibly patient with all the kids and elderly guests, which I really appreciated. The video editing was flawless but still felt natural, not overdone. They made sure no detail was missed, even the little decorations and smiles in the crowd. I felt like I was reliving the day every time I watched it. Their professionalism was unmatched, and they somehow made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. The way they captured genuine laughter and happy tears was amazing.

They were thoughtful about composition and also about people, which is rare. They didn’t push for perfect poses but found the moments that mattered. When my father gave his speech, they caught the small glance he gave my mother and the tears that followed those are the shots I'll always love. The video captures not only highlights but mood; dim candlelight feels warm and alive on screen. Their attention to detail extends to florals and cake shots that look magazine-worthy. I felt spoiled by how much they wanted to honor our story, not just check boxes. The backup gear and calm professionalism also gave me peace of mind on a windy day. They provided guidance for lighting and timeline that actually helped keep us on schedule. We received both a film and a longer documentary edit which was awesome. Everyone complimented the team for being low-key but efficient. My sister said she was impressed at how many moments they captured.

As a photographer, my goal is to capture stories in the form of images. Photos have the power to help you relive a specific moment in time and recall all of the emotions and details surrounding that moment. When I work with you on a photo project, my goal is to provide you with photographic records of those moments. I want you to be able to look back at your photos years from today and be able to relive that moment in time.

We cannot say enough good things about working with Alexis! She captured our love so perfectly and exceeded all of our expectations. The photos turned out better than our Pinterest board! Working with her was such a breeze. She’s communicative, easy going, and really knows how to hype you up so she makes any camera shy personalities (my husband) feel very comfortable! We are beyond obsessed with our photos and can’t wait to work with her again!

Laurie Ann Martin Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding day. From our first interaction, Laurie Ann and her husband Roy were incredibly responsive, understanding, and attentive to our needs and vision. Their creative, collaborative, and engaging approach to photography was a perfect fit for us. They went above and beyond to video our vows during our first touch, which was such a meaningful and special moment that we'll cherish forever. Laurie Ann's beautiful photography style and editing skills truly captured the essence of our day, and she was always open to our ideas and input. We couldn't be happier with the memories she helped create for us, and we highly recommend Laurie Ann Martin Photography to any couple planning their wedding.
