Randall de Leon Photography

5.0

Los Angeles, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000

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.

Having Randall photograph our wedding was the best choice we could've made! Not only was he accommodating and professional, he directed us in a way that made the experience fun! I would highly recommend Randall with any of your photography needs!

I have photographed many different niches, many events, many families, many milestones and my *ROCK* will always be love. Love is the foundation of every milestone thereafter and there is just something about it that I can’t get enough of! Every love is unique and it is truly a passion of mine to authentically capture it in whatever way is unique to each story.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was assisting TayCheney Events with a wedding when Taylor received a call the morning of the wedding that the photographer had to cancel. We had reached out to many photographers to see if someone would possibly have last minute availability and affordable pricing. Nicole was referred to Taylor by another amazing photographer (first green flag.) She was then extremely empathetic to the situation. She said that no one should ever have to worry about their special day being captured. Within a few hours she had rearranged her day and was there to provide more than we thought we would get last minute. She got there and instantly fit right in with the wedding party I could tell. Like I stated above, I was just assisting and I am not in the wedding industry typically. When I saw how she worked with every vendor, guest, and the couple I was extremely impressed. Not only is her personality awesome, but her work is beautiful! Top Tier. I hope to go to her for future family photos!

I ordered photography and videography from them, they've done a great job!

And the price wasn't high at all, unlike other wedding photography companies. The turnarounds are not long, the way they edited our video was remarkable, and they conveyed the emotions we felt that day perfectly! If you are reading it now, waste no time, choose them!

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
Searching for vendors for a wedding can feel a lot like a dating, a process which thankfully my husband and I don’t have to go through anymore. Occasionally you’re lucky enough to find someone you have an instant connection to, and that was true with Adam. We loved his photography from the moment we both saw it on his Instagram page. During our first Zoom call, he was attentive, asked good follow up questions, and truly understood what we wanted from him. From hiring to the day off, he was always available for any questions we might’ve had. When we got to meet him face to face, he was very professional but charming and warm, not only being expert with a camera but expert on the dance floor. Having now received all of his shots after getting a sneak peek an astounding two days after the wedding, we can say we made the right decision. Adam is an artist, through and through, and we couldn't have gotten more lucky in finding him.

We're Dan & Tyler Photography, a husband and wife photo and videography team in Orange County, California. We've been shooting professionally for the past 10 years and have entirely fallen in love with every part of it. Our faith in Christ brought us together and truly defines who we are now and how we run this business. Our drive is to love and serve you.

Awarded Best of Zola
There are not enough words to express how wonderful this husband and wife photography team is. My husband and I wanted a small, intimate ceremony for our wedding in the mountains of Yosemite. We knew we needed a special team that would be able to help make our vision come to life. We didn't want a large wedding, no fancy cake, no large celebration- the one thing we wanted to invest in was a good photographer and videographer. Honestly, Dan and Tyler were a gift from God and exceeded our wildest expectations. From our first shoot with them for our engagement photos they were immediately comforting and encouraging. My husband HATES being in photos and gets teased for his not being photogenic. However, Dan and Tyler made him feel so comfortable that he was able to relax, and everyone who knows him was shocked to see images of him actually smiling and laughing, looking very photogenic. Dan and Tyler met with us for plans on the wedding as well as for the small family reception we had later on. In total, we hired Dan and Tyler for three separate occasions, and we would hire them for one million more. The vision meeting with them was incredibly helpful. They were organized, gave us great advice and guidance, and were so warm and easy to work with. All communication with them throughout our engagement, wedding, and reception season was timely, clear, and friendly. On our wedding day weekend I was a ball of stress. It was Dan and Tyler who helped keep me calm and helped keep the wedding on schedule and organized. Honestly, I don't know how we would have done it without them. They played a critical role in our ceremony. They captured the most special moments, the most beautiful images, and the sweetest videos. I have been told the highlight video is the best many have seen. I can also say that your first moments after being married are so full of emotion, and who you share that with is very important. You'll spend those special moments with your photographer, and Dan and Tyler are exactly who you would want by you.Their presence was so peaceful, encouraging, and and calming. The same went for our reception. They helped us stay on track and ensured we captured every moment we wanted. As I said before, there are not enough words to express how wonderful this team is. I have many friends who have horror stories with photographers. With Dan and Tyler, there is only confidence and peace when engaging with them. It is so important to consider who you will trust with these moments, because these are moments you can never get back. Dan and Tyler's photography and videography is the best investment hands down that we made for our engagement, wedding, and reception. Their presence and products were worth every bit of the investment. I cannot, cannot, cannot recommend them enough. I will eternally want to thank them and give them the biggest hug for their role in the most special day of our lives. If you haven't resolved it already, hire them. You'll be forever grateful you did.

Hey y'all, I'm Meagan! This is typically the section where I should hype myself up, but instead, I’m going to actually tell you about me! I am a Northern California couples, elopement, and wedding photographer who encourages all my clients to include their dogs! Wondering where Lou Grace comes from? My business name is a tribute to my late grandfather, my guardian angel, and greatest supporter. I drink iced coffee year-round and I prefer Dutch Bros over Starbucks. I love country music but listen to just about everything and love a good song recommendation. Also, I’m obsessed with my dogs! Let me know if we have anything in common :)

Meagan did my family photos last year and was absolutely AMAZING!! The weather was hit and miss during the time we scheduled our session and Meagan kept in constant communication with me to give multiple options for location, day, and time based off the weather reports. She was so kind to me, my husband, and especially our son during the session. We received our photos quickly and the quality was better than I could have hoped for! I’ve already framed multiple photos from our session and I’ve had 5 friends ask me for her information after seeing her work because it’s THAT GOOD. A few months later a friend and I decided to hire her for a friend’s bachelorette party as a surprise to the bride and Meagan was perfect for the job! She made the photos super fun and remained professional and focused on getting great photos all night even though she was basically herding a bunch of drunk people by the end of the night. (lol, sorry Meagan) I could not recommend this beautiful woman more for your photos!! 10000/10.

I'm a CA based and travel wedding photographer. I've photographed almost 200 weddings, and every single one goes by so quickly. I love my job because even though the day goes by fast, I get to find and capture those small moments, sometimes just a fraction of a second long, so they can be relived over and over in photographs. I have a photojournalistic and editorial style, plus 9 years of wedding experience under my belt, so trust me that I've got it while you are able to fully enjoy your day and be present.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a wedding planner and fellow wedding vendor it is very important that I get along with the photographer and work with someone that is easy to communicate with. I have very much enjoyed working with Holly on multiple weddings now, I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer. Not only are her prices competitive, her quality of service can't be beat. She will deliver an incredible gallery of photos you will love and cherish forever.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Long Beach, CA
  • Classic style

Photography is my creative dream come true and it is so incredibly special to be able to capture memories that other people will love and cherish for many, many years. Around high school, I found out for myself how important these memories were. Not just the ones I was creating currently but the ones that I couldn’t get back. I would look back on these photos and think, "I remember how happy I was that day." "Aww, my little brother was so tiny then!" Or even, "What was I thinking when I wore that outfit??" These little snippets of time carried such a significance for me that I wanted other people to feel that way about their memories, too.

How can I explain with words just how amazing our experience with Mirage and Light (Amanda) was?? To start, I was referred to Amanda by my now-husbands cousin who had used her amazing skills for her own wedding! So I knew from the start that she was going to be amazing. From first contact, Amanda was so positive and professional. I booked her immediately and she offered a free engagement photo shoot with a wedding photography booking! Talk about a great deal! She was so lovely to meet and she made us so comfortable in front of the camera. Her payment plan was stellar and the contract was so clear and helpful, I had no trouble referencing any information I had forgotten. On to the wedding! As the big day approached, we listed out all the different groups to be photographed. Not only did she stick to that list so well, but she also thought of other group shots that we forgot about as the day was happening! She thought of everything! And if that wasn’t enough, her husband joined her to help with the pictures! They had the whole day covered and I always felt like every moment was being caught. As for quality, I feel so beautiful when I look at the pictures she took (and dare I say my husband also feels beautiful when he looks at them ;) So if you want a professional, organized, all around lovely person to do your wedding pics, Mirage and Light checks all the boxes!

Ashley was a dream wedding photographer from start to finish. Before the wedding we chatted many times & she was easy to work with, professional, genuinely nice, & gave great advice for the whole process. She created a detailed timeline and went through it with us prior to the wedding and it was exactly what we wanted. On the actual wedding day Ashley made everything so stress free. Pictures went so quickly and were so easy with her guiding everything. She has a GREAT eye for detail and makes sure the pictures are perfect. She also learned many people’s names from the wedding party which speaks to her professionalism & how much she cares about her clients. There were no awkward moments when taking pictures and she managed a large group of people & kids with ease! We got a sneak peek of almost 40 picture by the next day and they were absolutely perfect.

Loren photographed, and helped me extensively plan, a surprise engagement for my fiancée at Turnbull Cellars. She provided outstanding service through planning, photography, editing - and everything in between! Loren and I had an initial consultation and she conducted a reconnaissance session at the winery, with the assistance of the Turnbull staff (who were also amazing!). She shared very detailed notes with a suggested location for the proposal on the property. She expertly captured the emotion of my fiancée upon presentation of the ring, and we held a modest photo shoot around the winery. Loren shared approximately 115 expertly edited photos - all of which we feel truly fortunate to help us remember the moment. I also felt Loren's pricing was reflective of her value and competitive in the market. Loren is wonderfully natured and exceeds expectations to make your event special. She helped me manage the pressure of the event through meticulous planning and reassuring demeanor. I highly recommend Loren for helping capture any of your precious moments!

I am from Miami so I didn't know any photographers and we were not gonna get a chance to do engagement pictures. I also had less than a month to book a photographer. I was really nervous about making this choice due to the lack of time and fear of not getting exactly what I wanted which was clear pictures with lots of natural light and little to no filters. I am very happy we booked Cassie; we definitely made the right choice. Cassie was very communicative, friendly, and helpful from the beginning. She was always available to answer our questions and even meet with us via video call. She was also very accommodating to our availability and wishes.

Through storytelling, I see the paths laid ahead for our heroes, and beautiful adventures that need to be documented. Through storytelling, I started to see the pictures. And from these pictures, I began to photograph. I am crazy passionate about your day. I want to help you capture those moments. I want you to have the most amazing time, and the happiest memories. I want you to have photos so good that you can’t wait to show it off to the people you know, and even those you don’t.

I’ve worked with Cassie to capture my engagement, wedding & maternity shoots and I wouldn’t have it any other way. From her professionalism to her creativity to the beautiful photography she delivers, Cassie is such a dream to work with. She goes out of her way to scout the perfect location for the shoot & really puts my husband & I at ease (we’re super awkward when it comes to having our photos taken). I cannot recommend her enough!

Hi!! I'm Maria, photographer, mom, wife, and nacho lover. Not listed in any particular order lol Once I had my first born, I realized going back to work at CBS was not what I wanted with 12 hour workdays. I took photography classes and decided to build my own business myself. I have been photographing weddings for the last 6 years and enjoy celebrating this amazing day with all my clients. Cheesy as it may sound, I'm an absolute romantic and I relish in witnessing the love, words said, and the joy found at every wedding.

Maria is so amazingly joyful, her smile and great attitude just makes posing so fun and natural. It was very comfortable spending some time with her, getting the shots I hoped for while incorporated great ideas she had. I was so jazzed with the quality of the digital images and she had the gallery back to me so quick. I recommenced Pink Heart Photography for portraits to big events and all the adventures between.

My husband and I booked Fit the Frame for our wedding in Toney, AL on 06/05/2022. I previously met Memo in Sacramento, CA years earlier and decided to use him for our engagement photos. My husband and I flew out to San Francisco where Memo met us to do our photo shoot by the Golden Gate Bridge and a famous hiking trail in the national park. Memo was absolutely amazing throughout all of it, making the process extremely easy. He knows what he’s doing and has a HUGE talent. He will happily take any of your suggestions and ideas but at the end of the day, it’s best to trust the professional because he knows what will look good before you can even suggest it :) Upon seeing his finished photos from the engagement pics, we HAD to have him out to do our wedding. We flew him out to Alabama and he came to our rehearsal dinner as well as the entire day of the wedding. He followed us around as the night went on and took pictures of us with our guests. We received so many compliments from his pictures and continue to get them to this day. He is super affordable and a great guy overall. You will not regret using his services!

I'm Hannah, a full time wedding and portrait photographer in Livermore, California. To me, photography is so much more than just hiring another vendor. And that's why you should choose someone you truly love to work with! I believe the real magic happens during the in-between moments – a secret smile shared by the parents; a tearful hug with the maid of honor; a quirky moment with the best man. These memories are far more precious than any staged photo, and these are the memories I want to capture for you on your big day.

Lisa and her team were exceptional! We resisted hiring a professional photographer for our wedding for the longest time as we were not convinced that the quality was worth the investment. Boy were we wrong! We could not have been happier with the results and no photos from our family iPhones would have captured the moment like Lisa and Amy. I was drawn to Lisa's storytelling style and how her photos seem to capture the moment. The photos were presented beautifully on our personal gallery and we couldn't have been more proud to share them with our family and friends. We were thrilled that there were so many great photos of our family and friends that they could keep for themselves.

Marisa and Tim are INCREDIBLE! I wanted a colorful wedding and I wanted our photos to look like our day - fun, goofy, colorful, vibrant, full of love and joy - and they absolutely nailed it. A bunch of sepia-toned photos of us gazing into each other eyes with serious faces would have felt extremely fake - no shade to sepia or staring into each others eyes, I think those photos are beautiful (and we did get a couple beautiful serious ones and some black & white ones I love), but the look doesn't feel like us. I feel so seen by our photographers! Their customer service was also top notch - lots of communication and some above-and-beyond special touches that were incredibly thoughtful. You hear so many horror stories of trying to hunt down or communicate with wedding vendors, and there was none of that here. The Petersons are a shining example of great work and great to work with. I highly recommend them if you want beautiful, fun, vibrant photos and a really nice experience!

Leslie also gave us tips, where to park, and even flagged us down when we got to the courthouse and we made it JUST in time for our appointment. Her work is a also a testament of how talented she is.

Jasmine is an amazing photographer , It's only appropriate she's my 800th review! Jasmine, christina and my wedding planner Justina are literally some of my favorite wedding vendors and would hire all three again in a heartbeat! I initially had been following jasmine for a while before I got engaged in 2018. A couple of my friends had previously used her for their weddings and engagement shoots and their photos looked so magical and pretty with all the natural lighting! When I started booking wedding vendors, jasmine was actually one of the first vendors I booked! She's super sweet and responsive to emails, never had an issue with anything! We had two engagement shoots with her during Covid and we also postponed our wedding an entire year, she was completely understanding and willing to work with us to retain her as a primary vendor! Even doing our engagement shoots we felt so at ease and we actually appreciated all the coaching she gave us on how to pose. We are complete noobs and have no clue how to pose. She's a god send and will give you tips on how to pose, how to do your first dip and everything in between! Also if she suggests places to take photos at a venue, trust her, those photos will be magic, we hiked up a vineyard hill and we got some amazing shots with the oak trees. We just got married and received some sneak peeks and so far we are in love with our wedding photos! We've been in love with our engagement photos so we only assumed that the wedding photos would be equally as great! If you are looking for a family shoot, engagement or even wedding photographer, jasmine is the perfect person! Also if you also book christina chen for hair and makeup, you have the best duo ever! If I ever do anymore family/ maternity shoots in the future, I will be booking both of them together!

Hi! I'm Amanda. I never need an excuse to road trip or dance like no one is watching and my soul would probably shrivel up and die without music and high five moments. Finding kindred spirits is the best medicine and I will stop at nothing to savor a fleeting moment. Helping you look and FEEL amazing is literally the best part of what I get to do! I thrive on making your photos a completely comfortable, fun and utterly painless process! I absolutely LIVE for this.

Amanda was absolutely amazing! During our first meeting with her she was very informative and professional. On our big day she and the 2nd photographer were kind and extremely efficient. We especially appreciated that we were able to get all of our couple, bridal party, and family photos done before the ceremony allowing us to enjoy our cocktail hour! She was great at giving us cues so that we got romantic and picturesque couple shots. We received our photos in a very timely manner and are so happy with how they turned out! I highly recommend hiring Amanda for your wedding photos!

Foresthill, CA
  • Classic style

Hey, I'm so glad you're here! I'll keep this part light and short. My name is Heather and I live in beautiful Foresthill, CA. I love any and all hard seltzers, my Great Dane Fritz, and using my camera to capture all the feels. About my business? Well I'm basically a professional wedding crasher, so you know you will always have fun with me! Oh and I've pretty much cried at every wedding I've ever been to...and yours is no exception. Let's be friends!

BOOK HEATHER. Do it. She and her assistant will put you at ease on the day. I (bride) am not comfortable in front of the camera and Heather made me feel so confident. She treats you like a homie, but also you won't notice that she's there when you're doing your scheduled events. We just got our sneak preview pictures yesterday and I am in love with them - she captured a wonderful variety of moments. Thank you for everything you did for us on our wedding day, Heather. We'll be back for more photos from you!

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.

Emily was amazing! My wife and I loved all our pictures from her and Angel! Emily was punctual, professional, easy to communicate with, and really personable. The wedding was a blur at times that it was so awesome to see what other guests were doing because of the pictures. We recommend Emily over any photographer. We also highly recommend getting a second shooter. We could not be happier with our pictures!

My love for photography began as young as 12 but the passion came as soon as I welcomed my first son, Liam. Motherhood is a busy busy life and the camera keeps all the memories fresh. I love, love. Nothing makes me smile bigger than a surprise engagement, or the welcoming of a new baby. I really try to get to know my clients and visualize their lives before I even attempt to capture their story - because that story is what MAKES the shot!

Morgan is so great to work with! Her passion truly shows in her work. She’s confident, has a vision and knows how to make it come alive. I would work with her again and again.

Todd is such an amazing photographer/Videogeapher. He did our engagement photos and our wedding video. He is very personable so it makes it easy being behind the camera. He is very professional and is also a very great communicator. Which helps with being behind the camera and also just makes everything less stressful during wedding planning. He did more than what we could have ever asked for. He romanticized our wedding and highlighted the best part of our night that we will remember forever. It is something that we look forward to pass onto our future children. I highly recommend him to everyone we know and don’t know.

I am an irreverent guy who just so happens to create beautiful-rich-vibrant-uniquely-authentic wedding photography in and around the Bay Area, all over California and anywhere there’s beautiful light.

Awarded Best of Zola
First of all, our photos are amazing. They are AMAZING. I keep looking at them over and over again, and I keep finding new moments from my wedding to appreciate. Thank you Russ for creating these beautiful lasting memories for our family. Second of all: it was *GREAT* to work with Russ. We booked Russ months before Coronavirus, and during the months when we were reshaping our wedding plans, Russ was adaptable, reliable, and supportive. He was always prompt to get on the phone and to hear what we were thinking and what we wanted. We ended up having a minimony - a smaller version of our original wedding plan - and Russ was right there to make our day feel extra special and to highlight the best moments. He understood our vision even better than we did - the pictures attest to that, since he was able to capture the best moments with exactly the focus we'd want to see! All the while, he stayed out of our way, and yet somehow didn't miss a thing. Finally, I just want to say that Russ is a happy person to be around -- and his general uplifting mood is well matched to the spirit of a wedding day. I didn't know how much it would matter to have a happy person be our wedding photographer, but Russ' whole demeanor was a definite definite definite boon!

I'll keep this short and sweet because truly, it's not about me. I'm here to get to know you and understand you. I'm a mom to my sweet baby boy, a wife to my college sweetheart, and my passion for my work comes from one place — getting to know you, understand you, and photograph your love with integrity.

Sarah is the absolute best!! I can't say enough about what a fun and memorable experience it was having Sarah and her team photograph our wedding. Even before I was engaged, I knew Sarah was the one I wanted to help document my forever memories. Having a fun and professional photographer was such a priority to me. Our wedding weekend was truly unique and incredible, and Sarah played a pivotal role in making it so. Her expertise and guidance were invaluable throughout the entire planning process. She didn't just capture moments; she actively helped us create and preserve them. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sarah to any engaged couple looking for a wedding photographer who not only takes stunning photos but also adds a special touch of fun and professionalism to the entire experience. She is the best choice for capturing your forever memories
