Emily Loeppke Photography

I’ve been a Santa Barbara wedding photographer for 14 years, drawn to effortless, artful documentation from the very beginning. With a background in visual merchandising, marketing studies in Paris, and valuable business experience in the corporate world, I eventually returned to photography—always my first love after taking a film photography course in high school—and never looked back. More than a decade in, my love for weddings remains as strong as ever. My empathetic nature and holistic approach help create a warm, relaxed experience for every couple I work with.

My approach empowers you to live in the moment, prioritize the photos most important to you, and enjoy a full, start-to-finish collection of images that captures you impeccably and helps you feel like your best self on your wedding day. Incredible photography doesn’t mean you should sacrifice the ability to be present with your nearest and dearest (after all, this combination of loved ones in the same space is the very definition of “special occasion”).
