Aubrey Lorraine Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,200
  • Serves Albany, CA

My love for photography sparked from a deeply personal place—watching my children grow up way too quickly and wanting to capture those fleeting moments before they slipped away. This journey turned into a passionate calling, and now, I look to bring a documentary and cinematic style to every session I have with my clients. As a quiet queer and a loud LGBTQIA+ advocate—everyone is welcome in front of my lens. My priority is creating a safe space for my clients where they feel they can express themselves freely so I can capture the uniqueness that makes them - them.

Aubrey made us feel so comfortable ! She took amazing photos to capture our engagement and will be doing our wedding as well. She was fun, kind, professional, and all around such an incredible photographer to work with. I highly recommend her to anyone looking!

Valley Images Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,950
  • Serves Albany, CA

I have been photographing couples for nearly 10 years and have loved every minute of it. I have enjoyed following them through engagement, wedding, maternity and now family sessions. I have even become life long friends with some of them. I am a mother of 3 and have always loved art, and once I picked up my camera and found a way to tell others love stories, I knew I found what I was supposed to do.

Valley Images Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with! As planners, we work with many photographers and Michelle is one of our favorites. Their communication style is quick, personal, caring, and professional. The quality of their work is truly beautiful, artistic, and unique. They took the time to scope out hidden gem spaces at the venues and listened closely to the couple to capture the day perfectly. An absolute joy to collaborate with!

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

It just got married this past April and Danieka was one of the best photographers I have ever worked with. I work in marketing and have done many shoots with various photographers over the years, and I have to say, Danieka was the most patient, professional and overwhelmingly talented photographer I have ever worked with. She was also sooo good with my family and friends on wedding day! We had a lot of last minutes changes and she was able to capture our day perfectly! Highly recommend her!!

Hey there! I'm Natalie, a San Francisco based elopement and wedding photographer for couples who want a stress-free wedding celebration. I believe weddings should be focused on you and your partner having a great time. It's your wedding day, you should be enjoying it!

Awarded Best of Zola
Natalie was so sweet and easy to work with - not to mention she loves dogs, and our nervous pooch fell in love with her. Natalie is really organized and helped us finalize a timeline which made our day smooth. She fixed boutonnieres, managed our massive family photo, and even drove my husband and I from our ceremony to the reception. Having our engagement session with her also prepped us a little for what to expect. She gave us direction, and made us feel more at ease. Our ceremony was at Old Mill Park, and our couple photos in the redwoods were dreamy. She has a great eye, and the photos really were magical and timeless, with just the right amount of moodiness. She brought along a 2nd photographer, and they both caught really fun candid moments of our family and friends. She also had our photos back to us so quickly. Natalie was just super thoughtful, warm, and flexible. I can't recommend her enough. Thank you, thank you, Natalie! <3

As a photographer of life, love and beauty, Tara Arrowood does what she loves every day. She captures beauty in all things- people, animals, and spaces. Her main goal? It’s simply to make people happy. She uses her lens to show inner beauty, authentic emotions, and life’s precious/fleeting moments. Making people happy means giving them a different perspective, a different angle from which to see their most cherished moments in life. 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.

I've been to Germany, Italy, Bahama's, Mexico and countless states in the US, all because two people fell in love with each other, and then with my work. My significant other offers videography and we both are familiar with Super 8 and film so together, we offer everything you could need!

Ashley Sara Photo is hands down the best choice you will ever make! She is not only the most incredibly talented photographer, but also the kindest soul. You will be in awe of her skills and want to be best friends with her all at the same time. She made our wedding day 1000x better and we had the best time exploring our venue with her while capturing the most beautiful memories. I look at my wedding pictures at least once per day because they are just that good. I am someone who hates photos of myself and does not enjoy being in front of a camera, and she somehow managed to give me literally hundreds of beautiful photos that I adore. She’s also a pretty awesome hype woman and will give you plenty of confidence boosts. We already have 1 year anniversary pictures scheduled with her and plan to use her for every other occasion we can because who doesn’t need more beautiful photos they love!? To sum this up, just hire her. I promise you will not regret it :)

We are a husband and wife team based in Portland, Or and travel worldwide (we love travel) to capture our couples stories, and capturing the best imagery we can!. We specialize in creative moment driven wedding & lifestyle photography. We are committed to telling our couples stories and supporting them in ways that allow them to be free of stress and to be in the moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jos and Tree came highly recommended to us and, having worked with them, we now know why! A lot of people take wedding photos. Among them are a handful of folks who are also reliable, professional, and pleasant to work with. And within that smaller group, is an even smaller group of photographers who have real artistic vision matched with technical skill. Jos & Tree are, without a doubt, near the top of that select group. The images they produced of our wedding run the gamut from traditional wedding photos to absolute masterpieces of lighting, composition, and technical execution. Here's an example: as the day was wrapping up, and a bit *after* Jos and Tree's deadline for leaving had passed, they quickly posed my wife and I in front of a tree in the park; Jos had a vision for an image he wanted to capture in the fading light... and the resulting image proved absolutely magnificent; it is my favorite photo of the day, and among the top photographs I have seen anyone create, anywhere. On top of the artistic talent and skill, Jos & Tree were an absolute pleasure to work with; responsive, pleasant, personable, and fun. They were always on time, and ready to work... and work they did!! The amount of effort and energy they put into capturing lots of beautiful and creative images cannot be overstated. And then, they edited them beautifully, and have been working with us to select images to print and put in a book. The quality of their artistic consultation has been phenomenal. My wife and I have seen a lot of wedding photos that people proudly post online on sites like reddit. I can confidently say that I've yet to see more interesting and beautiful wedding photos than the ones I've seen from Jos and Tree. It's a pleasure to give these two lovely people our highest recommendation.

Heyyy there! I’m Kiersten, the founder and creative force behind the lens. Born and raised in West Virginia, this beautiful state is what I call my home. I’ve developed a love for traveling across the United States, and I’m excited to expand my adventures internationally in December 2024. I’m passionate about capturing that best friend type of love—the real, raw, and candid moments that make your relationship unique. On your wedding day, my focus is on documenting your authentic selves, from those emotional first looks to cozy moments during golden hour. And I’m all about the pops of color!

From the very first moment I met Kiersten, I knew she was the perfect choice to document our wedding. Her warm and engaging personality made us feel completely at ease, allowing us to truly enjoy every moment of our special day. The way she captures the essence of a moment is nothing short of magical. Her romantic style effortlessly highlights the love and joy shared between us and our guests. Each photograph tells a beautiful story, filled with emotion and grace. We were especially impressed by her ability to capture candid moments, turning fleeting seconds into cherished memories that we will treasure forever. Her attention to detail and genuine passion for their craft are evident in every shot. Whether it was a quiet, intimate exchange or a lively dance floor scene, she managed to capture every moment. In addition to how talented she is, she brought a sense of calm and joy to the day. Her friendly demeanor and approach made us feel like we were in the best hands possible. We couldn't have asked for a more dedicated and compassionate photographer to be a part of our celebration.

She is truly one of the sweetest souls.

The reasons people choose us over our competitors are: 1) Our communication is the best in the industry 2) No hidden fees, no travel rates(if booked before 2025), the quote you receive is the total amount. 3) We offer a very flexible payment plan, where you choose the dates you wish to pay on! We serve clients across California and throughout the entire U.S. 😁

Honestly Jose saved our lives! Previously to hiring him and his team, my wife and I had gotten scammed by a photographer. I was scared and of course super stressed about finding a new photographer I could trust and I could rely on. From the beginning the communication with Jose was amazing and this is so important with any wedding vendor. He captured our wedding so beautifully and that’s all we really want when hiring a wedding photographer. He even sent sneak peeks like two days after the wedding! And our pictures were ready so fast! I highly recommend New Ending Productions for your wedding and all your photography needs.

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.

Hi, it's nice to meet you! I am Eszter, Wedding and Portrait Photographer, located in San Francisco Bay Area. Fueled by equal parts of hot chocolate with whipped cream and passion, I spend my days capturing images that make you stop, smile and ask time to please slow down. Life is beautiful, just like your story and your love and I can’t wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years.

Eszter was incredibly easy to work with, and when I initially reached out to ask if she was available for photos mentioning that we were doing a small and rather non-traditional wedding in the backyard, there was zero judgment. She went with the flow and put my mind at ease that she would work with whatever was in place. I spoke to a number of other photographers who had so many requirements and made it feel like they were doing you a huge favor, whereas Eszter really made us feel like she wanted to be a part of our day and capture each and every moment. Never did she try to sell us expensive add-ons outside of our budget, and she was incredibly responsive. Eszter is such a pleasure to work with, my entire family was thrilled to have her taking photos - she made us all feel at ease. And to top it off, her photos are beautiful! She captures the lighting, the expressions and candid moments, and also helps you pose naturally. I would highly recommend and hope to work with her again for future photos!

Hello My name is Andris Dzeguze I am a creative eye behind Dzen Documentary. I discovered my passion for photography in my grandfather's darkroom, and it has been an integral part of my identity. The ability to freeze moments in time and craft visual stories with light has captivated me for a long time.

Andris did a truly incredible job shooting our intimate wedding at the Seattle courthouse in November. We cannot speak highly enough of the level of professionalism and coordination he provided our small group - from ensuring we arrived at the right time to capture the best possible light to making our typically photo-avoidant families comfortable and at ease. Our expectations of the photos we would get in a government building for a wedding ceremony were blown out of the water when we received our final gallery from Andris. He was a key part of our wedding day and we cannot thank him enough.

My professional background was cultivated in the field of architecture and design. But around 2010, my obsession with photography overcame my passion for architecture and I changed course. Through years of experience as a wedding photographer, I’ve developed a genuine love and appreciation for these emotional events. To me, weddings are emotionally-charged, symbolic celebrations. They often inspire pure expressions, words and feelings from the couple and their family and friends.

Awarded Best of Zola
Mandy Scott Events has worked with Duy Ho Photography many times since we first met as part of the team for a multi-day destination Indian wedding in 2014. Duy is the photographer I most often recommend to my clients. He does not consider himself an artist but a craftsman; I see him as both. His images reflect a unique artistry crafted from years spent figuring out the use of natural light and framing of his subject. He tells the story of the wedding day for his clients capturing emotion and documenting the events as they unfold in an unfussy way. He is always well prepared ahead of the event and exudes a calm energy throughout even the most hectic and longest of wedding days. He is quick to deliver a sneak peak to clients right after their big day and their gallery is always delivered in a timely manner. Can you tell I'm a huge fan of his work?!
