One of the most important things other than the getting married part is having beautiful pictures to look at and reflect on for the rest of your lives. I cannot say enough about Carrie of CMG Imagery. Not only does she make you feel so comfortable, but she takes amazing photos. Photos can be stressful but she makes it fun. She also worked so well with my wedding videographer, so they could both do their best work. I would and have highly recommended her to people looking for amazing photos :) thanks Carrie!

Ditto Dianto Photography

  • Fine art style

  • Serves Alameda, CA

I'm a fine art wedding photographer based in Northern California and beyond. After discovering my love for photography, I always knew I wanted to become a full time wedding photographer. I am so fortunate to call this my job for over five years! My photography work often describe as romantic, soft, bright and natural that lend itself from my love of film look and fine art. When I'm not behind the camera or editing the latest wedding, you can find me spending time with my wife and our two Tabbies. I would absolutely love to get to know you and be your photographer!

Ditto and his assistant showed up early and started taking amazing photos right off the bat. The pre-wedding communication was timely. He was easy to work with and brought calm energy to a day when stress can permeate the fun out of it. We immediately received a high volume, beautiful sneak peak the evening after the wedding which was a fun surprise and a great way to start our honeymoon admiring the gorgeous photos. If you are considering Ditto Diante Photography for your wedding, I would highly recommend him.

The Ganeys 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Serves Alameda, CA

I’ve always been the girl with the camera. In high school, my idea of a good time was planning photoshoots with my friends and editing our high school yearbook. But when I got to college, I felt like I needed to get a practical degree, so I chose the most creative business major I could find – marketing. Then I met Thomas. My photo hobby became something more because he recognized my passion and encouraged me to make it a reality. He’s been my second shooter since the very first wedding.

I've been putting off writing this review because I feel like no words can fully explain the amazing experience I had with the Ganeys. I first met Emily and Thomas when I was a bridesmaid in my friends' wedding in Florida, which the Ganeys were shooting! Based on that day and the resulting photos, I knew how talented this pair was and I REALLY wanted them for my own wedding. After getting engaged, I actually reached out to Emily before we even had a venue or date booked. Once they signed on to be our wedding photographers, my (already high) expectations were totally exceeded. I loved how organized, detailed-oriented, and responsive Emily was as we planned our engagement shoot and wedding day. At the engagement shoot, they did an amazing job including our 2 golden retrievers and shooting in sub-optimal weather conditions. Emily is so kind, thoughtful, and talented as a photographer, and Thomas is the secret ingredient that makes grooms everywhere feel at ease! This husband and wife team communicates so well and I believe that is part of the reason why they make their jobs look so effortless and fun on your wedding day and why the photos are so breathtaking. We can't wait to host Emily and Thomas at our house in a few weeks, and show off the way we've displayed their photos around the house!! I would be more than happy to share my full gallery and answer questions from any other brides/grooms considering the Ganeys.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

I had an incredible experience with Grace as our photographer for a couples photoshoot turned surprise proposal! She was not only sweet but also incredibly creative, suggesting great poses and capturing beautiful moments. Grace took the time to understand our vision as a couple, and her thorough research showed in the stunning results. Plus, she went the extra mile by timing the sunrise for us, ensuring our pictures were absolutely perfect. I can't thank her enough for making our special day even more memorable with her talent and dedication. Highly recommend her for any photography needs!

Hello lovely! Let me introduce myself—I’m Sarah. Welcome to my little creative space—I hope you love it here & make yourself at home. My goal as your photographer is to put you at ease and therefore be able to capture your moments authentically and beautifully. As a film and digital photographer ("hybrid" if you will!), I take a big step back to capture your memories with intention, love, and honesty - my promise to you, is to treat your day as if it were my own. Film is my favorite medium to capture wedding days on, as I feel it brings back a level of authenticity, imperfection, and refined elegance that is irreplaceable.

Fox & Fig photography just captured our wedding this past weekend in Berkeley, CA and we cannot say enough good things about Sarah and her team. Before our wedding Sarah was communicative and so helpful with the planning process, she even helped build us a timeline for day-of! She made sure to check-in with us before to ask for inspo pics or a Pinterest board to make sure she could capture what we valued most. Sarah is incredibly detail oriented, kind, personable and we can't wait to get back our sneak peaks! She was excellent at directing not only my husband and I but our entire wedding party. She remembered everyone's names and kept us on track with our timeline. Sarah made sure we were feeling good day-of and kept checking in on us all night long. She brought along a second shooter and videographer day of and they were just as lovely! Sarah and her team have that southern hospitality and charm that makes everyone feel super comfortable in front of the camera. We cannot recommend Fox & Fig photography enough!

Ryan Michaels Photography was a bit slow at communication, which is understandable since Ryan works a full-time job in addition to running his photography business. However, with a little patience, we were able to work through any delays. The quality of their work was beautiful, and they truly captured all the special moments of our wedding day. Ryan and his wife were friendly and enjoyable to work with, and their services were so comprehensive that we didn't even need to hire a wedding planner. Overall, we were thrilled with Ryan Michaels Photography and highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

Luxury wedding photography in California and worldwide... You want your photos to be as unique as you are. You want photos that capture the intimacy and emotion of your day. I have spent the past decade developing my approach to wedding photography, learning how to be unobtrusive, when to take the lead, and when to take step back and anticipate the moment. The resulting experience is one that allows you to be in the moment. The resulting images are authentic, beautiful and timeless.

From the pre-wedding day planning to the photo album creation, Roberta has been amazing to work with. Roberta made the entire photography experience a breeze- helping my husband and I to feel natural in front of the camera and capturing beautiful moments and details of our day. She took care of absolutely everything in a professional, organized, and efficient way while also bringing fun and levity to the photo taking process. She is reliable, attentive, kind, and truly a master of her craft. We are absolutely thrilled with our photos and will treasure them for years to come.

Cassie Valente Photography

  • Fine art style

  • Serves Alameda, CA

My name is Cassie and I am a hybrid film + digital photographer, completely fascinated by the human story and the parts of it that we all share. My aim is to tell the story of your love and laughter through images that are timeless and intentional. I believe in storytelling through details, emotional portraits, and finding those quiet moments in the midst of celebration. I love capturing real moments that help my couples remember how they felt on their wedding day, through the lens of my own airy and dreamy style.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we started working with Cassie, it felt like we were reconnecting with an old friend. Cassie is so thoughtful, patient, and funny- and we got to experience that multiple times when we connected with her for our photography. We truly believe that her vision and personality is what makes her photos feel so authentic and filled with light love. As awkward people anxious about taking photos, we were so relieved how Cassie made us feel comfortable from the beginning of our engagement session. She was able to somehow fade into the background, while also guiding us and capturing genuine moments. We loved that photo session so much that we ended up hiring her for our welcome dinner as well! Cassie was so easy to work with leading up to the wedding, making sure to get a list of our important shots ahead of the wedding while working closely with our planner to make sure there was a clear schedule. This meant that we could be as present as possible on our wedding day. On the big day, Cassie honestly felt more like a part of the wedding rather than simply a vendor. She knew how to make everyone comfortable, made sure the bridesmaids and groomsmen were having fun, and made the day feel natural for us. We got all of the wedding photos we wanted, and managed to even be AHEAD of schedule so we got to spend more time at our cocktail hour!!! Cassie’s photos capture the full range of emotions on the wedding day, because she’s able to connect deeply with her couples and understand what is important to them. Her style was something we gravitated to as we wanted a photographer who would not simply chronicle our event, but also capture the small details and genuine emotions that we might miss during the day. For both the engagement shoot and our wedding weekend, Cassie promptly delivered sneak peek highlights within a couple of days, and the full album within her initial estimate (8 weeks). She managed to capture the full essence of the day. Everytime we look at those photos, they bring us right back to those moments and feelings. We are so lucky and thankful to have had Cassie as our photographer. Hire her for your wedding! You will not regret it!!

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!
