Shelby Ayn Photography

5.0

Monrovia, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,000

Your experience with me starts long before you step in front of my lens. I take the time and energy to get to know you & your story, so that I can capture the parts of your relationship that are authentically YOU. So that you can look back on the photos from this season of life, and feel like you're right back in that moment, feeling those same feels. To me, a perfectly posed & still photograph doesn't capture a feeling the way that a candid one can. I direct my couples to create images that are full of movement and those intimate in-between moments.

Shelby is my go to gal for any professional photos! I highly recommend her to anyone who love great quality and memorable photos. Any vision I have she delivers perfect, if not better!

Hannah Madison Photography

Monrovia, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,800

Hi! I'm Hannah, your So Cal (but traveling) elopement and intimate wedding photographer! I'm so glad you're here. My photography style is a documentary/natural photographer. This means I'm more about documenting your moments and helping you create genuine smiles/moments in photos, opposed to just posing you, i want you to dance and have fun, snuggle into your partner and get those intimate moments. (I'll of course help you figure out what to do with your hands, because lets me honest, even I don't know what to do with my hands in photos. Haha) I love traveling, I love adventure, and I love making friends out of my clients.

Having Hannah as our wedding photographer was easily the greatest decision we made! Hannah was incredibly professional, kind, informative, easy to work with, easy to talk to, great communicator, and listened to all our needs. My husband and I are very awkward and uncomfortable when it comes to taking photos (taking professional photos was a new thing for us) and Hannah made sure we were comfortable from start to finish. By the time the wedding came around we knew exactly what to do thanks to her easy to follow tips, tricks, advice and guidance. Hannah captured our wedding beautifully, and we are forever grateful for her. We will be going to her for our future events and highly recommend her to everyone.

Although my primary focus is on couples, weddings, and portraiture. I am, and always will be, an adventurer at heart. I have traveled to 25+ countries so far and I hope to capture on film so much more of our amazing planet. Taking photos of people while they are in harmony with their environment is something that deeply intrigues me and is a personal inspiration to continue to hone my skills.

Randall de Leon Photography

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.

Wow can’t believe almost going to be a year since I said YES!! to my handsome husband. I came across Randall de Leon Instagram, his photographs and work speaks for itself. His work is just so heartbreaking. from the very beginning till the very end he was so sweet, professional & easy to talk to, I mean he listened to every single little detail and he went above and beyond for us. Randall found us the most beautiful beach to have the ceremony, he captured such beautiful moments with my loved ones, he made sure my wedding dress train and veil always looked on point, he made sure everyone and everything looked perfect. He was so patient and he was just so very much fun to work with. He made all of us feel so comfortable. Felt like he was our friend at our special day capturing special moments. We seriously found my forever photographer 3

Adam Griffin Photo

5.0

West Hollywood, CA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,000

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
Wish I could give 6 stars out of 5. Part of my job involves reviewing photography, so my expectations were high and requests were specific. Adam blew me away. He was a ray of sunshine on the day of the wedding, putting everyone at ease and keeping energy up. He got all of the shots we asked for any so many more beautiful shots on pure instinct. He was seamless, efficient, specific, and subtle where needed. And the final result? We've cried looking back at our photos, bowled over by his ability to capture the emotions of the day. Everything from nervousness to glee to nostalgia is palpable in our album. We felt gorgeous, we look gorgeous in the pics, and we've informed our siblings that when they get married, they WILL be hiring Adam. His rates were very fair and his open printing policy is perfect for us. He's a no-brainer!

Hi I'm Carmelisse. I'm an intimate wedding & elopement photographer based in Los Angeles. I have a gift for making people comfortable and seeing the beauty in all diverse people. I want nothing more than to tell your love story right.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are reading this right now, you should go ahead and book Carmen already for your big day! ;) You absolutely won't regret it!! My husband and I knew we wanted to book Carmen early on in our wedding planning process - in fact, she was the first vendor we booked. After we picked a venue, we worked with Carmen's schedule since we knew 1000% that we wanted to have her document our big day. From the beginning Carmen was super friendly and communicative with quick responses throughout the week (usually on weekends she is likely at a wedding). She was also very organized and had questionnaires to help us get to know each other better on a more personal level so we wouldn't feel like strangers on the big day. We went with one of her packages which included an engagement session (which was super fun and matched what we were envisioning - a "naturey" theme with mountains/hills in the background), a second shooter (who was super amazing!), an heirloom album (which we are currently working with her on), and more! The engagement session was extremely helpful for us because we were slightly nervous before the shoot, but the more time we spent with her, the more relaxed and at ease we felt (which is saying a lot because my husband and I are both introverts). We liked that Carmen could help us naturally pose and that her editing style was not too overly edited but allowed the natural beauty in each shot to shine. We also really appreciated Carmen's flexibility - my husband and I are both healthcare workers who have varying schedules and sometimes work weekends, but she was able to still plan our engagement session and our Zoom calls around our busy schedules. After the big day, when we look back on our wedding day, one thing that really stood out was how many of our guests were amazed with Carmen and her second shooter; the small details Carmen noticed made a lasting impression on a lot of our family members such as when Carmen and her second shooter would hold onto our guests' purses or sunglasses and make sure everyone looked essentially before taking photos. My mother-in-law couldn't stop raving about Carmen and how attentive she was to each guest. We also enjoyed all the photos of the wedding venue, each of our guests, and small moments and details that my husband and I might not have noticed since we were all over the place on the day of our wedding. At the end of the day, while all the food and drinks have been consumed, the music has been played, and the decorations and flowers have been set up and taken down, the only thing we have to reminisce on is the photography and documentation of our special day, and that's why we trusted Carmen to be our wedding photographer and would recommend her a thousand percent to all our friends and family.

I’m Mysi (pronounced, boringly, “Missy”)! I’ve been at this thing for 12 years and I keep falling more and more in love with it all. Give me intimate micro-weddings, quirky dive bar weddings, raucous South Asian weddings... my team and I absolutely thrive in chaos and emotion. My specialty is catching the moments and those tiny moments in between. ✨✨✨

Awarded Best of Zola
Mysi was hired as a photographer for a wedding that I planned. She was very professional, kind, personable, warm, and VERY easy to work with - leading up to the special day of the wedding. She didn't need hand holding at all on the busy day and was a vendor I did not have to worry about at all. And I do not say that for every vendor. She was very communicative with me, understood the wedding timeline, and was very flexible (which, from a planner's point of view, is very important, as not all vendors do that)! She's one of my favorite vendors I have ever worked with and I highly recommend! - Trang, Wedding Planner at Weddings By Trang

Stephen Tang Photo

5.0

Pasadena, CA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,100

While some photographers emphasize their gear or trendy post-processing, I take pride in subject-photographer interaction - the relation I build with clients, picking up on nuances in pose and expression while we shoot, anticipating the viewers' response - because ultimately, that's how photographs that matter to us are created. I'm a native New Yorker who found myself relocating to Los Angeles and making it my home. Wherever you'd like to have your wedding, it would be my pleasure to be your photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
My tango classmate once said that our instructor taught dance as if she were teaching math; the same could be said of Stephen’s approach to photography. From planning to execution Stephen was on top of his game. Starting from the initial inquiry he provided thorough responses in an enthusiastic and timely manner. I could tell that he loves doing what he does and is very excited to talk about anything photography related. During the planning phase Stephen provided input on scheduling and location selection. We must have exchanged a dozen emails on this topic. We also put together a mood board that consisted of: shots that I was interested in from his prior work, colors, what I liked and didn’t like about each sample photo. Stephen is an exceptional photographer. I love that his photographs aren’t as washed out or overly bridal bright. I wanted photos that weren’t just beautiful, but to have some richness and depth. Stephen checked all the boxes. Since my wedding was really an elopement + 1 guest, we had to be creative with a combination of wedding-esque and non-standard activities. On the day of, Stephen captured the candid moments beautifully, but he also directed us for some posed ones. Friends and family loved the photos we shared and commented on how natural we looked. I suddenly recalled Stephen’s remarks during the session: “no 90 degree elbows” “too maternity” “keep it PG” Looking at the photos now I do appreciate these reminders because it really helped us look our best in these photos that we widely distribute. With that said, Stephen is also very personable and easy to work with. We became increasingly more comfortable with him as the day progressed and that's reflected in our photos. Now that we’ve overcome the awkwardness of working with our photographer for the first time, we look forward to having Stephen photograph us again for our first year anniversary!

We had such a fun time working with Gabbie and the photos turned out amazing. She went out of her way to get to know us as a couple during our engagement photo session, and you can tell she kept it all in mind on the day of our wedding. She worked hard to make sure all the special moments were captured, both portraits and candids that we had requested.

Long Beach, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,600

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.

My wife and I had an intimate destination wedding in New Orleans and Amanda was an absolute blessing for us! She arrived in a city that she had never been in and made our wedding photos look like they were shot by someone who had lived there their whole life. New Orleans is like a second home to me and she found locations to shoot that I didn’t even know about. I was was very nervous on the big day and Amanda put me at ease, made everyone laugh, and blended in like a member of the family. She went above and beyond in creating images and photo opportunities that went above my highest expectations. One of my favorite was images from that day is a photo of my wife and me while we waited for the St Charles streetcar to take us from Audubon Park to our reception. The streetcars had stopped running for a while and Amanda saw this gorgeous ray of golden light hit this solitary stone bench. Amanda said, “quick!” and had run over, sit down, look Into each other’s eyes while seated there on the bench. The lighting was tremendous and it captured our love perfectly. Thank you Amanda for not only capturing our wedding, but for capturing our personalities, our style, and our love for one another! You are the best!

I set my mind and soul to this craft about 5 years ago and my heart just grew with every couple I met and every story I learned and told through my favorite medium of photography. It is the absolute best feeling being able to photograph the genuine love and happiness a couple expels through their wedding day. Nothing can beat the emotions and the charm of that. It's an honor to be able to translate those emotions onto images so people can look back through them and get back those feelings years and decades later.

I told her I wanted murals at ROW DTLA and she came back with a map of all the murals there (without having ever been there herself)! I was super thrilled with the amount of prep and planning that she did, and it made the whole session go so smoothly.

Sarahi Photo

Long Beach, CA
  • Photojournalistic style

My name is Sarahi. Born and raised in Los Angeles, CA. Since a child, I loved photographing with old polaroids and disposable cameras.. My family used to complain about the 100's of pictures I captured and how many rolls of film I used. Now, I look back at pictures from 10+ years ago, and see the beauty of "stopping time" in photos and keeping them forever. I see how it brings happiness to the people around me and myself. Nothing makes me happier than people looking back at precious memories. I can't wait to extend this experience to you and create an everlasting memory that you can carry for years to follow.

Awarded Best of Zola
I recently had the pleasure of a portrait session with Sarahi, and the experience was phenomenal. Right from the start, her professionalism and welcoming demeanor created a comfortable environment for both me and my fiance. Sarahi took the time to understand our vision and provided guidance to enhance the overall result. Communication with Sarahi was seamless, and deadlines were met with precision, reinforcing the positive overall experience. I 100% recommend SarahiPhoto for those seeking a portrait session that combines skillful craftsmanship with a thoughtful and collaborative approach.

Hey future newlyweds! I'm Jarrod, a wedding photographer that specializes in story telling. Tired of all the bright, overposed, cookie cutter sh*t you keep seeing? Let's create wedding images with real emotion, story, and intention to them. I know being in front of the camera can be awkward. That's why I choose not to pose couples, but instead prompt you to do something like "take off your shoes and run across the field" or " get inside the car and kiss everywhere except the lips". These prompts will help you feel comfortable and also help create candid images. Check out my website for more info :)

Awarded Best of Zola
Jarrod and his wife, Taylor, are truly a dream to work with! My husband and I really wanted some simple engagement photos taken, but were reluctant because we’re not totally comfortable in front of the camera and didn’t want the poses/photos to look cheesy. Taylor gave us plenty of suggestions to pose us naturally and kept us laughing which put us at ease immediately. Jarrod was such a professional and really worked every angle and background to make it look like we spent an entire day shooting. The editing was super crisp and clean and the photos came back incredibly quickly. They far exceeded our expectations and we can’t thank them enough for giving us beautiful, lasting memories from such an important time in our lives. This couple is seriously amazing - genuine, fun, and experts at what they do!! Book them!

I'm a houseplant enthusiast, traveler (no place is too far), enneagram 4, binge-watcher of The Office, ice cream lover, and introvert fascinated by human emotion + connection. Photographing weddings has truly been my dream job, and I feel so honored every time I'm invited to capture intimate moments in peoples’ lives.

Awarded Best of Zola
Brittney is EVERYTHING. She shot my sister’s shore wedding and delivered such gorgeous photos, we knew we needed her for our wedding! We were married in Punta Cana and Brittney made all the photography/destination logistics SO EASY. Looking at our photos, you would have no idea that Brittney only saw the location the day before our wedding. She captured the beach location perfectly. But where Brittney truly sets herself apart from other photographers is in her ability to capture candid moments. Looking through our wedding album is so emotional because the photos perfectly reflect how everyone was feeling throughout the day. And finally, I cannot write a review that captures her skill without mentioning her as a person. Brittney is kind, fun, and sensitive. She has such a calm presence during your wedding that she disappears into the background (this is how she is able to capture so many candid moments). Since my wedding, she has continued to be a thoughtful friend who is always down for a coffee date. I love Brittney. Hiring her was the single most important decision I made for my wedding!

After the craziness of the day one of things our family and friends kept commenting about is how professional and great she was during the wedding, which was amazing to hear.

He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.

Born in the desert (AZ Baby!) and relocated to the sea. I firmly believe that a good day starts with a cup of coffee and ends with glass of red wine. I own more jewelry than I do clothes and in my opinion, too much gold does not exist. My biggest passion will always be photography. I’ve had a camera in my hands since I was a little girl – I would even set up “stylized shoots” in my family’s living room that consisted of sheets pinned to the wall, my friends and fake flowers (embarrassing, but I’m not kidding!). I strive for those editorial, Vogue-like shots, but I really live for those private, in-between moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was referred to Kristina by my wedding venue's coordinator. I was having a destination wedding at a private estate and she had shot several weddings and shoots there before. Knowing that she knew the venue and seeing her work, I knew she was a top contender. Having great quality photos was hugely important to me, and that was something I wasn't willing to sacrifice quality on. Her style was exactly what I wanted—natural, soft, minimally edited, and not overly posed. However, a good wedding photographer is an investment, so I wanted to meet with her first. Luckily, she lives in the same town as I do, so I didn't have to travel to the destination to meet her.When I joined her for a glass of wine, we instantly clicked and I was immediately a YES. Before my husband would sign on the dotted line, he wanted to meet her as well. We met for a 2nd time, all three of us, and he also loved her right away. Having that connection to a photographer is SO important to make you feel comfortable throughout the event and truly trust them (photos are awkward, right?). The day could not have run more smoothly, thanks in large part to Kristina. She made taking photos fun for everyone and our bridal party also fell in love with her. Aside from being fun and personable, she was professional and kept us on a tight timeline. She also made sure we fit everything in on my wishlist: first look, first look with my dad, bridal party photos, family photos, table photos, dancing, the hora...didn't miss ANYTHING. I'm so in love with my photos from that day and so happy to have those lifelong memories. Since then, she's become a great friend. Anytime I want photos taken for a life event, I will ONLY use her. She's taken family holiday photos, photos of my pups, professional photos for my husband, and I will keep using only her for family photos in the future.

I am a documentary wedding photographer -- I'm all about capturing real moments. In my photographs, I’m always shooting with an eye for color, light, and dynamic shadows. I integrate these technical aspects with my background in film, literature and storytelling so with every wedding, I create a series of documentary photos that recreates the authentic narrative of a day. I’m always chasing the candid, the emotional, even the un-noticed everyday details; things that make you do a double take, little moments that make your heart swell.

Awarded Best of Zola
I showed my best friend some of Rebecca’s work when we were searching for photographers and she marveled that the folks in Rebecca’s photos “feel so much more like real people than other shoots like this.” That precisely captures Rebecca’s work + energy and confirmed our decision to work with her! We worked with Rebecca for our elopement ceremony and our tea ceremony and it was truly a special experience. Rebecca made an huge effort to know and support us as a couple before the event, which helped us trust that she would be there to capture all the right moments and then some! Our family and friends all loved her and we got many questions about how we knew her and if she was a friend of ours (she is now!); this really speaks to her kind, open, and genuine presence. She moved the event along while also treating everyone with respect and compassion. We already knew that her work was incredible and we couldn’t be happier with our own results. We cannot recommend Rebecca enough! You’ll get beautiful, soulful photos and the chance to have an amazing human in your life if you book her!

My goal is to provide you with timeless images & memories that will be cherished for years to come. My hope is that I'll be able to serve as a resource of tips & tricks, advice & referrals to help make this process as seamless as possible so you're able to enjoy each step in your wedding planning journey.

Tiffany is a not only an outstanding photographer but she is a genuinely kind human. I have been fortunate enough to work with Tiffany on other weddings & photoshoots (I’m a Makeup Artist) so I had no doubt that she would be shooting our wedding! She is extremely professional and always responded to questions in a timely matter. I already knew how efficient Tiffany is so I went into the day with such comfort, and I can assure you she will do the same for you! I almost feel like she was even my planner, since she had made the timeline for the day and stuck to it. We did our engagement session with Tiffany which was a great way to become more comfortable in front of the camera and learn some poses for the wedding day, she even took some good shots of our dog for our engagement session. Our wedding was a destination that was about 5 hours form LA and she was more than happy to travel. She was able to capture EVERY moment. Tiffany was great at keeping everything on time and controlled. One of the things that sets Tiffany apart form other wedding photographer’s is that her images do not look over-edited or trend based. She has a very classic and bright style of photography and looking back at all of our images years from now I know we will not be disappointed. We are so thankful for her capturing every moment from a day that goes by so quick! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Tiffany J Photography!

I live in Long Beach with my husband, and our beautiful dog-daughter Rita. If I'm not photographing my incredible clients, I'm watching any entertainment I can, from the latest HBO shows or movie releases. But, there's nothing better than drinking a beer and laughing at some quality reality television if you ask me! I also love reading while drinking coffee in the morning, but nothing tops hanging with my friends and family, enjoying some drinks and sharing some laughs.

Such a pleasure to work with Kathy! She is on top of everything as works as hard as the wedding planner to make sure everything goes smoothly and that all the must-have photos are captured. She is very organized both before the event and day off. While being on top of things she still manages to have a laid back personality and blends into the background so you barely remember she has a camera all up in your face. haha. Plus, the photos came out Beautifully!! She captured our love and our special day so well. We will cherish her photos for years to come. Highly recommend!

Hi you guys, my name's Natalie, & I'm so glad you're here! I’m a joy-filled, Southern California surfer girl who is in love with capturing weddings.  My style? It’s timeless, romantic, adventuresome, & personal. I’m dedicated to capturing fine elegance + raw beauty all the while keeping it real + being authentic. Your job is to be in love & live in that excitement with each other. My job is to make it easy + enjoyable for you two to be yourselves, 100%, as I frame and capture those once-in-a-lifetime moments in a way that only my mind can. Congratulations to you both! Looking forward to getting to know each other! xx Natalie

Natalie is the most professional, genuine, and talented wedding photographer. I promise you that you cannot and simply will not find a lovelier, more generous, or more brilliant person to help you sidestep stress and make the wedding planning process and wedding day a joy. At our wedding, three different people asked me if I'd later share her contact information with them for whenever they got married. Just think about that for a moment: three people were so blown away by Natalie's warmth, energy, and beautiful, bubbly personality that they would hire her on the spot without having yet seen her stunning work and even though they weren't engaged. Natalie's smile brightens up an entire room, and she has a truly remarkable way of making everyone feel relaxed and comfortable. She'll make you laugh, she'll keep your energy up, she'll capture the moments you dreamed would one day hang on your walls, and most of all, she will make you feel like your day, your marriage, and your love are the center of the entire world. This gift of her presence and love is extraordinary, and I promise you that it extends beyond anything you could ever hope or expect to receive from any wedding vendor. I cried when she sent us our photos because they are so profoundly beautiful and so full of the true emotion that she naturally drew from even the most reserved of our family members. Every photo was so natural and full of light and joy. Natalie has so much talent, and if you're one of her brides you'll quickly realize how lucky you are to have someone care so deeply about you and about capturing your special day. Before our wedding, Natalie spoke with me over email and on the phone, sent a thoughtful questionnaire to help us articulate our aesthetic and photography hopes, sent a quick engagement gift, and even checked in over text to make sure I was doing well the week before the wedding. After the wedding, she sent cute thank you gifts and GORGEOUS photos (you will love yours too!). But my favorite memory will always be from our wedding day when she took a moment to dance with my shy 5 year old nephew and draw him out of his shell so he could enjoy the party. The huge smile on his face will always be one of my most precious moments of our wedding day. My nephew, like so many of our guests, still ask about Natalie all the time. It was a pleasure to work with Natalie and to get to know her, and I hope you too will be fortunate to experience Natalie's light, love, and unparalleled talent.

I'm admittedly wary when it comes to the Wedding Industry and all of it's bells/whistles/expectations, and at the same time, I believe wholeheartedly in the power of community, love, commitment, and collective joy. I think that weddings-- in all of their forms and reclamations-- ultimately serve a great purpose in reminding us of these gifts. I come from a long line of meticulous documenters and hold a degree in Sociology, all of which informs the way I approach photography. I am curious about people, am in awe of the display of emotion, and am passionate about the ways in which we construct family and community.

Kenzie is an incredible photographer and story teller. I am so grateful we found here. We used her for our wedding and photos when our kid was 6 months old. Would 100% recommend her to others and would use her again. Her photos are thoughtful, stunning, and help me remember specific parts of our wedding now years later.

My name is Jonathan Moore. I am a Los Angeles based wedding photographer and available worldwide. I'll get right to it: The very last thing I want is for you to think of your experience with me as a "photoshoot." I think that posed "prom" photos are totally lame and reflect absolutely nothing unique about you or your partner. After all, you are not actors pretending to be "in love," so why should your images reflect that? At the core, your images should ultimately remind you of why you fell in love in the first place. This is what we're celebrating!

Jonathan Moore is an absolute dream to work with! Besides the fact that his images are fantastic, he is a true professional in every way. I appreciate that Johnathan captures the true essence of an event with his images: from the candid shots, to décor shots, to the more formal shots. He works well with people, works great under stressful elements, he communicates, is reliable, creative ... and overall, fun to be around. As an event coordinator, Jonathan makes my job easy!

The kind of work I do within the wedding photography genre is very distinct - every image stands on its own as a thoughtful composition as if from a cinematic art house film or high-end commercial/editorial shoot. My color grading is immediately identifiable and unique - developed through years of studying color theory - uncommon today in a sea of 'presets' that other photographers purchase on the internet for they have no knowledge of how to build their own. My compositions are often quirky, surprising, different. I always attempt to show a point of view that's uncommon and fascinating to the viewer.

Fitz Carlile is a master of light, and can make virtually any setting look like the most romantic place in the world. He immediately puts you at ease.

Hanna Walkowaik is a wedding photographer based in Los Angeles, California, frequenting Chicago & NYC, traveling all around the world to capture love. Hanna creates artful and storytelling images of your day using digital and film. Her photos are filled with vibrant colors, candid moments and touches of nostalgia. She mixes editorial and documentary styles to not only give you beautiful portraits and captured memories but artistic images to hang in your home. With a Bachelor of Arts degree in photography her approach is artistic, purposeful and technically skillful.

Hanna is truly exceptional! We could not have asked for a better person to capture our wedding day. When my now-husband and I first started searching for wedding photographers, we were drawn to Hanna for her immensely beautiful and versatile portfolio. We spoke over Zoom and felt immediately comfortable with her — she has such a calming presence, made us feel like we had been friends forever, and assured us that she would help our vision come to life. We didn’t have much photography knowledge — we knew we wanted to take some shots in a nature setting like a park, and that we wanted someone who could capture color, as our venue had a specific aesthetic with green and blue walls. Hanna provided the most wonderful guidance for our photos and our day — she scouted many locations around our venue for our wedding portraits, taking into account the proximity and the nature setting we wanted. When we picked one, Hanna went to the spot the week before at the exact time we’d be there, so she would know the specific lighting and locations that would best fit. She also, months in advance, made a timeline for us to help guide the day and ensure that we had a schedule to keep everything on track. This was SO helpful and made the day so much smoother. On the day of our wedding, Hanna couldn’t have been more magnificent. She made us feel so at ease, which was paramount on a day that had so many heightened emotions. We aren’t used to working with professional photographers and were initially nervous that we would feel awkward, but Hanna truly made us feel so calm, comfortable, and joyous. She made the entire experience SO fun, and multiple of our wedding guests commented on how kind she was to them. Now the photos…the PHOTOS. Within a week of our wedding Hanna sent us our sneak peeks — about 160 of them, which is far beyond what we expected. They are stunning. Truly, stunning. She has sent us a gorgeous mix of color, black and white, and film. Our wedding day felt like such a whirlwind and Hanna captured all the emotions and all the moments in ways that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. I can’t look at them without being transported back to that day and the specific happenings — from our first look to our first dance — and feeling so overcome with happiness. I can’t choose a favorite because they are all stunning (and all our friends and family keep telling us with how much they love our photos). I’m especially appreciative of Hanna scouting a spot right near our getting ready spot that we hadn’t seen before that looks like a forest, and having us pose there for truly magical pictures. We also have some night shots and some photos from the bar area at our venue that look so editorial and glamorous that I can’t believe it’s us. Trust me, work with Hanna and follow her guidance. She leads with thoughtfulness and intention and it shows. You will get to know a terrifically talented and kind person and your wedding photos will not only be aesthetically marvelous, but you will feel like you get to relive your wedding day every time you look at them. Hanna is THE BEST and we are so grateful to have had the honor of working with her.

Jonathan has clearly been doing wedding photography for years. He is punctual, organized, and extremely professional. As a solo photographer, Jonathan was still able to get every shot I wanted of the ceremony and reception. He also pays great attention to detail, making sure everyone in the shot is positioned just right. He even had a small pair of scissors in his pocket to help with any flower, thread, etc. mishaps! With so many options out there, we were so happy that we decided to work with Millay and Young Photography.

I believe the best photos occur when... artistry and intentionality meet moments of heartfelt connection. I'll guide you towards the dreamiest light and offer unobtrusive direction that lends to natural movements and sincere emotion. I also slow things down and help re-center everyone, creating space for beautiful moments to unfold, like mom fluffing your veil, dad's expression when he sees you all dressed up, and fleeting looks between you and your partner.

Elyana is so easy going and fun. She will be a calming presence on your big day, but will also know when to gently take control to keep the schedule going. She knows how to capture images filled with beautiful light and a lot of emotions. When I look back at my wedding images, they really feel like us. They don't look forced or overly posed. I feel like they really capture our spirits, so to speak. This kind of photography doesn't just require technical skills, but that's when the true artistry kicks in, and this is what sets Elyana apart. We'd choose her again any day!

I'm Becca, a midwest transplant in Los Angeles (yes, one of those people), wife/homebody, Christian, and newfound happy plant lady. My day is made whenever I see a cat, I cycle through re-watch binges of my favorite shows constantly, and I always have something home-baked on hand in my kitchen. I’m pretty used to third-wheeling it and am excited to be any couple’s wedding day companion and new lifelong friend & coffee date!

My husband and I absolutely loved having Becca as our videographer! I could not recommend here more! We were referred to her by our photographer and were so happy with the decision to use her! Prior to hiring her we met for coffee and immediately felt like she understood our vision for the video. She was so detailed in her preparation for our wedding and made us feel so at ease on the day of. Going into our wedding day, the idea of a camera following you was intimidating. We were worried we would be so focused on the fact that she was catching our every move but when our wedding day came it was the complete opposite. She did an incredible job of catching the perfect moments and really showing our love without it looking forced or staged. The way she shoots is incredible – she captures the perfect natural light and the love and excitement you feel on your wedding day. She even ended up having a drone on which we did not expect and were so excited about! Following our Saturday wedding, we received a teaser of our wedding video on Tuesday morning and were overjoyed with excitement! It truly was everything we dreamed about and so much more! I think we’ve watched it at least twice a day since our wedding! I could not recommend Becca more!

We are Sienna plus Josh, adventure elopement photographers [who also eloped!] in 2011 and we have been shooting weddings and adventuring ever since. We are here to help you navigate the path of forging your OWN path. Going the adventure elopement route is intimate, authentic, and empowering...with a day that is truly reflective of your relationship and defines the two of you! One of the best things about eloping is that you get to throw away the rule book and write your own. Whether that is spending your wedding day on a mountaintop in Oregon, among the waterfalls in Iceland, or the warm desert of California.

I have been lucky to style a few elopements Sienna Plus Josh have photographed. They are so kind and professional, always putting their nervous clients at ease- in the end creating an incredible gallery. Their work speaks for itself, but as someone who has met them personally they are a joy to hang out with as well.

I took up photography at the ripe age of 11 with a Polaroid I borrowed from an aunt. It quickly became my sketchbook as I worked to capture stills of the world and people around me. Those images have continued to pay emotional dividends throughout my life, helping me better understand what I have now come to see through a new scope. They are grounding, melancholic, funny and beautiful. Some of my most cherished possessions.

Hands down the best photographer for your wedding! Thank you Daniel for our memories!

I am a fine art wedding and elopement photographer based out in Los Angeles, CA. I’m passionate about telling love stories through photographs in the most beautiful and meaningful way. Love stories are an infinite source of inspiration to me and I believe that the most magical images are made up of connection, emotion, and light. I wholeheartedly believe that you should live in the moments you want to remember forever and we feel so grateful to have the opportunity to work with such incredible couples who have the same approach to love and values that we share.

I would 10 out of 10 recommend Jennifer to all my friends and family! She is just so sweet and amazing. My husband and I have never done professional photos before and she made it so easy going. She first did out engagement shoot and we had so much fun. We both felt very comfortable in front of the camera. Jennifer is also very punctual. She also shot our elopement in Santa Barbara, we got sneak peaks back that same day ( how amazing, right?) and when we received all the photos about 3-4 weeks later, we were BLOWN away. Looking at the pictures made it feel like we were reliving the moment again, I am so so so happy that I chose to have her do our pictures, they truly are amazing and I cant wait to frame them for my home.

It me! I am your new third wheel, your new childhood friend, your new girl behind the camera! I've been doing this whole living my dream thing for 7 years now and I couldn't be happier! It all started one fall summer night at winters end... totally kidding one day I just said "F-THIS! Photography makes me unbelievably happy, Let's do this!" But my joy is not only from photographing love. It's also because I married the most amazing man on this planet. Leonard is my best friend of 10 years and husband for 7! I still dream about our wedding day and feel like I am always living in that wedding day happiness.

From our engagement session, Cindy was just the sweetest and understood our dynamic so well. We don’t always take pictures together and she captured our love. She is extremely fun and easy going. Our wedding day was just a blast with her and she kept everything running smoothly! She has a gift!

My earliest memories of photography are from when I attended weddings at 5 or 6 years old. I would photograph everyone at these weddings with a small, plastic, film camera and loved every moment. That joy of photography and capturing beauty and love has stayed with me ever since. I have a better camera now, but I still can't wait to capture your love.

Tom did a fantastic job with our engagement shoot. We couldn’t have asked for better. He made us feel super comfortable and was able to capture amazing shots without interrupting our special moment. He gave us so many gorgeous images that we were able to use for our announcements, save-the-dates, and wedding website. He truly went above and beyond.
