Trung Hoang Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,495
  • Serves Alameda, CA

My name is Trung, the head honcho at this eponymously named company. My name is pronounced “Troon”, which sounds like spoon, so ignore those other letters that make life complicated. I've been a photographer for close to 10 years, photographing things big and small, far and wide. It's pretty incredible how impactful and valuable a split second image of a given time, place, person, or object can mean to a person. Whether it's a photograph of someone you love or a place you'd love to be, photographs spark memories or inspire the pursuit of new ones and that's why I love it.

Trung was an amazing photographer to work with, and the easiest of our vendors to work with. He and his wife, who typically shoots with Trung, came to the venue to tour it with us and get a feel for the area. His communication and organization are top notch. Most importantly for my wife who is camera-shy, Trung is great at making people feel comfortable around a camera, and directing poses and looks that he thought would be nice. As a hobbyist photographer, some things I really appreciated about him are he is someone who is completely ok with you taking the digital files he gives you and editing them yourself, which some photographers do not allow. He also takes amazing landscape photos, and brings those skills and artistic sensibilities into his editing and wedding photography. We later (about a year later) asked Trung to put together a wedding album for us which he gladly did, going through 4 iterations with us. I also asked for one of the photos to be edited slightly different to fit the rest of the page which Trung was happy to do for us. Other things about Trung: 1) Punctual 2) Flexible (our wedding ended up running behind and suffered a blackout at the venue, both of which he took in stride) 3) Captures great photos, posed and candid! My wife and I would hire Trung again in a heartbeat! We still keep in touch with him more than a year post wedding if that helps to show you how great of a guy he is.

I guaranty to you a photography session with reasonable prices + quality photography & professional costumer service.

Yesika Transforms Moments into Timeless Memories. We had the absolute pleasure of working with Yesika as our wedding reception photographer, and the experience was nothing short of magical. Hailing from Cuba and honing her craft in Spain and France, Yesika brought a unique blend of cultural richness and artistic flair that truly set her apart. From the very beginning, we knew we were in for something special. Despite her company being relatively new, our initial encounter with Yesika during our engagement photoshoot left us awestruck. Her ability to capture natural beauty and those fleeting, candid moments was unparalleled, prompting us to entrust her with the monumental task of documenting our wedding day. Yesika's journey to our rustic Farm in the Sierra Foothills showcased her unwavering dedication to her craft. Her keen eye for detail was evident as she effortlessly immortalized the blooming wildflowers and skillfully incorporated the mesmerizing sunset as a backdrop. The resulting engagement photos were a testament to her talent and left us with immeasurable excitement for what she would create on our big day. The wedding reception itself was a whirlwind of joy, laughter, and heartfelt moments, and Yesika was the silent maestro behind the lens, orchestrating a visual symphony that perfectly encapsulated the essence of our celebration. Her ability to narrate our story through her photographs was nothing short of remarkable; each image told a tale of love, excitement, and the sheer fun we experienced on that unforgettable night. Yesika's professionalism, coupled with her warm and friendly demeanor, made the entire process a seamless and enjoyable experience. She seamlessly blended into the festivities, capturing both the planned and spontaneous moments with equal finesse. Her passion for her craft and dedication to exceeding expectations were palpable throughout our entire interaction. Yesika, we not only gained a photographer but also an artist who transformed our wedding day into a collection of timeless memories. We wholeheartedly recommend Yesika to anyone seeking a photographer who not only captures moments but elevates them into works of art. Her talent, coupled with her genuine enthusiasm, made our wedding day all the more extraordinary, and for that, we are forever grateful. Thank you, Yesika, for turning our special day into a visual masterpiece!

She will be there to help make your vision come to life. You can count on her to have your back and lend a hand in time of need.

Leah Marie Photography + Stationery is truly the BEST! Hire Leah if you are seeking a wedding photographer to capture those special moments as this is her beautiful gifting. She was suggested and we fell in love with her personality over the phone. She was radiant, joyful and exuberant. She traveled to North Georgia to photo and without us knowing, she even photographed our rehearsal. One of the qualities that makes Leah stand out above other photographers I've worked with, (I'm an actress and on set often) is her specialized eye on composition, lighting and movement in a photo and the way she makes everyone feel at ease. The photos she captured were published a week later in the magazine BEAUTIFUL. Our wedding was featured in a 7 page spread story about our celebration. The other huge selling factor about Leah is the softness she provides in the finished photo. It is a surreal, warm, quality filled with a love light that is consistent in all of the photos she prepped and sent to us. She delivers such emotional and epic photos. Our videographer was filming and you see Leah photographing us, not missing a moment and she complimented /coordinated with our wedding palette. It was incredible. My sister consistently said how she wished she had a fraction of the talent in her wedding photographer. Leah is a rare gift. You not only get a photographer but a friend and a joyful personality celebrating your special day with you. Didn't miss a moment, talented, professional, easy to work with and turned around photos within moments.

Natalie was always quick to respond if I ever had any questions. I was so excited to receive so many photos in our sneak peaks just a few days after the wedding. Natalie and her assistant photographer really captured every moment at my wedding. The turn around time for edits blew me away. I could not recommend her enough! Hopefully soon we will be using her for a family shoot ;)

Vincent Po Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,100
  • Serves Alameda, CA

Oklahoma raised, Princeton educated, and founder of Portrait of a Young Couple, documenting how couples of all backgrounds and identities across the world live and love. I'd love to be a part of helping to capture you and your partner's love.

The Experience - My husband and I are both pretty camera shy, so it was really important for us to find someone we felt comfortable with. Vincent managed to win over my introverted husband in a surprisingly short period of time, and was easy to talk to about what we were looking for. Vincent was helpful in guiding us through poses for our couple portraits and also impressed us with how he made our friends and family comfortable throughout the day. The Photos - We wanted lovely photos that we could treasure, but we didn’t want all of the pictures to come out overly filtered or washed out. Vincent’s photography stood out to us because it feels authentic and timeless at the same time. He got the previews and photos back to us in a timely fashion after the wedding, and we were thrilled with how the pictures came out. There was one photo that we wanted something small photoshopped out of the background, and Vincent was accommodating in making that edit that we requested after receiving the photos. The Communication - With so much going on right before the wedding, it was helpful that Vincent checked in on us for things he needed a couple months ahead of time. This helped us know what to figure out and gave us buffer if we were late on getting back to him. He was always quick to respond to our questions, and as mentioned earlier, he was great at communicating after the event as well. Overall if you can get on Vincent’s calendar, I’d happily recommend our wedding photographer to anyone

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $7,200
  • Serves Alameda, CA

My name is Helena, pronounced Ha-Leen-nuh (don't worry I get it all the time haha) I am a San Francisco native and ex-Silicon Valley techie who decided to take leap of faith (during the pandemic) to pursue my dreams of being a full-time Wedding Photographer. This journey has been SO wild, but I don't regret a minute of it. When you hire me, you hire not only a photographer, but a planner and a cheerleader as well ;) If you like dogs or cats, coffee (oat milk lattes FTW), thriving plants, outdoor adventures, dancing, and sunsets, I think we'll get along great ;)

Helena beautifully captured our elopement last month. Her photos are warm, natural, and full of personality. I don't think my husband and I could have been happier with how the photos turned out. We ended up taking formal wedding photos at the Palace of Fine Arts and some more casual couple portraits on Crissy Field Beach. The majority of the comments we got from friends and family were centered around how epic and awesome our photos turned out and how our photographer choice was a 10/10. Behind the scenes, she was an endless source of enthusiasm and encouragement, and gave us amazing posing tips and suggestions. Even prior to the big day, she meticulously spent time discussing outfits, locations, and logistics to make sure the day was perfect. We're so glad we were able to jump on the Helena rocket ship as her career as a full time wedding photographer takes off. After our session, our close friends were so impressed with our photos that they booked their engagement and wedding shots with her as well. We have no doubt that her accolades will pile up and she'll be a go to recommendation for our friends and family. Definitely book her for your engagement, wedding, and photo shoots!

Amber’s ability to capture the honest, meaningful and organic emotions of the day makes her one of the most sought after wedding photographers. She has spent years crafting a unique one of a kind experience for her clients with a combination of digital and film images. Her signature photography style is best described as chic, timeless and natural. She believes a wedding day should be documented through the eyes and heart of her clients, capturing the fleeting moments that they never want to forget.

Amber made me feel so beautiful and confident on my wedding day. Taking pictures with her felt so natural, just like she was there to really capture the day rather than us constantly posing, which I really appreciate. I was absolutely stunned when we got our gallery back. The care that Amber puts into composing the perfect image speaks for itself when you see the final product. There was no detail missing and i’m so glad we have these to look back on for the rest of our lives. I recommend Amber to all my newly engaged friends because the experience is unparalleled - she is the best!

I have always had a passion for photography and once I picked up a camera, it was all over. I was raised from a big family and my kids are my world! Born and raised in the Bay Area, I have a special love for being back there. I consider myself very outgoing and will always try and make you laugh and feel comfortable by being a huge dork. I think that is one of the biggest compliments I get is that my clients always feel relaxed and at ease and I love hearing that. Not to mention becoming friends with my clients which is an added bonus! ​

Hiring Jeff Hall as our wedding photographer was one of the first wedding decisions we made, and from there on out I knew everything was going to be fantastic. When meeting him for engagement photos, we all instantly hit it off and I knew he'd easy and FUN to work with. He's a photographer willing to go over and beyond to get THE perfect shot (wade through water, climb trees, shuffle through snow, lay in dirt. All of it.) The one thing I wanted at the end of the day was fantastic photos to look back on and hang in our home, and we received better photos than I ever dreamed of (and fast!). In fact, I loved him and the photos so much, I'm just counting down to when I can drag him to other countries for anniversary trips photoshoots! I'd recommend Jeff in a heartbeat to any couple!

My mission is to work hard to deliver quality images and give my clients a comfortable, enjoyable experience full of smiles and laughter from the initial contact through the session and even after the final product is delivered.

Jess was beyond amazing and made our day so special. It was incredible how beautiful our pictures turned out and she captured everything I could have ever imagined and beyond. It was actually quite impressive looking through the wedding album after we received it because Jess seemed like she was everywhere all of the time. She captured every moment sometimes with different angles and I am so grateful to be able to relive our wedding day while looking through the photos. I thought I would regret not having a videographer but Jess truly captured everything from start to finish and that the day just comes back to life when I look through all of the photos. As she captured our wedding day she was soooo very patient with my husband and I, our family, and all our friends. Everyone spoke so highly of her after our wedding and really appreciated having a relaxed, caring, funny, kind, and professional photographer. She also helped me while getting ready and truly made it so I could fully enjoy my wedding. I also asked her to shoot my graduation photos and lets just say I don't think I will ever inquire for a different photographer. I am looking forward to continuing to have her capture precious moments in my life for as long as she continues photography. Thank you for being more than I could have ever hoped for and capturing some of the most memorable days in my life and making them so extremely special. You are the best Jess!!! 3

Sarah, our go-to contact person from day one, went way above and beyond in being accessible for questions, taking note of our vision and making great suggestions. In short, she was a total delight to work with, as was the case with Nathan. Prior to the wedding, Nathan took time out of his busy life to get on a video call with Corey and I to discuss our timeline, vision and final details. The questionnaire Sarah provided before that was also extremely helpful in conveying our vision, and it was evident Nathan had reviewed those responses in detail before our call. Nathan and The "I Do" Photography team listened attentively and noted all of our requests and gave great suggestions, but always made it clear it was up to us and they wanted to execute whatever was most important to us. We left our meeting with Nathan feeling so at ease about the people who would capture our day! The craziest part is Nathan was even more spectacular on the wedding day itself than we could have ever expected and brought the most incredible energy and enthusiasm for SEVEN hours straight. Nathan worked tirelessly throughout the evening, and he and the "I Do" team's commitment to excellence was evident in every interaction with them in the lead-up and every moment throughout the wedding. We are so in love with our wedding photos and cannot get over the talent and quality of Nathan and the editing team. Corey and I hope many more couples get to experience what we did throughout the process and couldn't be more thankful for the role that Nathan and the broader "I Do" team (Sarah, Anna and Lydia) played!

Due to unforeseen circumstances, Jay actually stepped in as a replacement on behalf of our original photographer, they were buddies :) The night before to the morning of, Jay was very communicative from the start & even afterward we were wrapped up from our ceremony. Of course being that this was our first time getting professional photographed as a couple, Jay guided us through poses, angles, allowing to feel very comfortable & natural in front of the camera. Plus he had a great eye when taking candid shots, which is one of the main things my husband & I wanted 3 At the of the day, he went out of his way to send us sneak peek shots of our photos & just from that kind gesture & professionalism alone, said a lot. Thank you so much again Jay for capturing such a special day for us, especially with our love ones there. All the photos turned out so beautiful!

Tiny House Photo is a LGBTQ+ women owned documenting love stories with intention. Stephanie, the photographer behind Tiny House Photo, is located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida but travels often around the country to photograph couples, elopements and weddings.

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked Tiny House Photo for our engagement session and wedding and I cannot recommend Stephanie enough for your special event. Stephanie’s photography is absolutely gorgeous, heartfelt, elegant, humorous, raw, silly, artful, and fabulous. My husband I were completely thrilled with all of our photos. Stephanie documented our wedding day in the most heartfelt way, capturing the essence of every moment. Looking through the photos brought us back to every moment, they enamored us as much as they made us laugh and say things like, “Of course this family member had 3 outfit changes.” Our wedding day was perfect not because everything was seamless and smooth, but because it was exactly what we wanted it to be, and Stephanie helped us both actualize that by giving folks directions when needed and by documenting it so truthfully to help us remember all the joys, laughter, tears, and mild annoyances of the day! What we loved about Stephanie’s photography from the start was its honesty and deep feeling. Her photography spoke to us in a way that was much deeper than getting some fancy or trendy shots of our wedding. We wanted to remember it all – each raw moment that paints the whole picture, each raw moment that has its own value even if it’s unknown at the time. We wanted someone who knew how to connect with all of the deep complexities of existing, that fortunately/unfortunately(?) won’t be put on pause during your wedding day! Stephanie has the gift to create a gorgeous documentary of a special day because she has the beautiful ability to tap into the deeper meaning of both the small and big moments. Her empathy and compassion were felt by all, which was evident in the comfort everyone felt around her. If you’re camera shy, Stephanie is amazing to work with, she helps you feel so comfortable and eventually you forget you’re even being photographed. Stephanie’s boundaries and fierce protectiveness kept things in line, which we so greatly appreciated. She also helped us develop our day of timeline and portrait list. She is a literal wedding guardian angel. Stephanie has such a special gift, and we’re so grateful that she shared it with us. We HIGHLY recommend that you book her for all of your events, especially if you are also a sensitive, deeply feeling, neuro-spicy (as she says!) person. We 100/10 recommend Stephanie for her kindness, professionalism, expertise and sense of humor. I’m already thinking of future photo shoots we can do with her… :)

We could not have asked for a more talented and professional photographer for our Wedding in July 2021, Christina is truly wonderful! Instantly, we were drawn to Christina's vivid and colorful photos and knew that would be a perfect match for our wedding (and personalities). From our initial consultation to the day of our wedding, Christina provided us with guidance (from locations to what outfits photograph best) to ensure that we would have the best photos. We really appreciated her honesty, but also willingness to capture what was truly special to us. Her flexibility and assurance during a planning season fraught by Covid regulations always put us at ease. And lastly, our photos were simply stunning and we will treasure them forever.

Tara offers photography and cinematography services for any sized wedding. Tell her your plans and she’ll create a schedule that includes everything to tell your story!

Awarded Best of Zola
I truly can’t recommend Tara and her team more highly. Not only is she an incredibly skilled and professional photographer who always captures that shot of a moment you never want to forget, she’s also a wonderfully kind, funny, and thoughtful person to work with. We first met when she shot engagement and wedding photos for my husband and I, and for years to come we reminisced about how great she was at taking beautiful photos and also wrangling wild, wiggly little kiddos. She even pitched in at our wedding and with a big smile on her face, bustled my enormous wedding dress — her assistant got a great photo of that! We were thrilled with how our photos turned out, as well as our 5 minute cinematic video which felt like the quality of an epic movie trailer of our special day. We were so happy to see her again for another family wedding years later, and most recently she took stunning and personal family photos with our little one. I’m already conjuring up another reason to work with Tara again because in addition to her gorgeous photos, she’s just a great person to be around.

Photography is deeply embedded in my past. Over 30 years ago, my family and I came to the United States from the former Soviet Union, where my grandfather had been a professional portrait photographer for over 50 years. I bring positive energy, and connect with and delight your guests and vendors. I have photographed in destinations as distant as India, Paris, London, Aspen, Mexico, New York, Los Angeles, North Carolina, even a wedding on a cruise ship! But, San Francisco is the city I know like the back of my hand – a city that I believe is the best photo studio in the world. I am an expert San Francisco City Hall wedding photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sasha is wonderful to work with and a creative genius when it came to capturing our special day. He knew how to work all the right angles and find the perfect lighting. The weather rapidly changed the day we were shooting so we had to suddenly switch locations. Sasha was extremely patient and quick to find a new location in San Francisco. He was able to beautifully capture our love for one another in the city where we were first met. Our photos turned out better than we could have ever imagined. Trusting him throughout the process and letting him work his magic with his creative energy was fun and we were blown away by the results. Highly recommend Sasha and look forward to working with him again!

I’m a San Francisco wedding photographer with a style that combines emotion and photojournalism to create beautiful and intimate wedding photos. My focus is on seamless storytelling that highlights beauty and brings the spirit of the event into every detail. I’m inspired by connection and absolutely love photographing weddings. My style is modern, romantic, and authentic. The moments captured are candid using editorial and documentary techniques. I have an eye for charm, humor, and the little things that make someone look drop dead gorgeous. I capture you in your best light and bring you back to these magic moments for years to come.

I am so freaking glad we worked with Tiana. Not only are the final products of what she creates absolutely magnificent, she has such a calm, caring and professional demeanor that really helps in the moment. I worked with her first for my wedding, and I am so glad I did. She was really able to capture the magic of the moment, and I am utterly obsessed with the photos! She had great suggestions when I needed them on how to pose and what to do (which helps me so much b/c I can feel so awkward in front of the camera!). She gently but firmly helped us stay on schedule for our sunset portraits, which I appreciated b/c I would have forgotten or skipped it if up to me. I also then worked with her for a portrait session with my housemates, and this is really significant, because I’ve never really done a full shoot like this before (aside from the wedding) and she was amazing to work with on that as well. Tiana was able to capture the dynamics and sweetness between us, and again, that sweet, calm, and fun demeanor of hers really put us all at ease that showed in the photos. If you’re on the fence, don’t hesitate! She’s worth it.
