Amanda Ford Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Capitola, CA for additional fees

Welcome. I’m thrilled you’re here. My approach is to make things easy, enjoyable, and fun throughout the whole process. From the moment your inquiry lands in my inbox to viewing your full album, I am here to capture your story make your vision a reality. I strive to capture your raw connection while documenting such an important day. On a more personal note- I love the outdoors for more than just photo-ops. I enjoy skiing, mountain biking, hiking, and especially being on the water. I am a big people-person which is also why I am also a Physical Therapist! This allows me to work with people daily and help make a difference in their lives.

Amanda was the best wedding photographer we could have asked for! She is friendly and sweet, and she made us feel completely comfortable during our engagement and wedding shoots. She was professional and easy to communicate with, and she was up for clambering down a riverbank, tromping around in the rain, and driving up to a remote wedding location to capture our adventure wedding. Our wedding photos were beautifully edited. We highly recommend Amanda!

My heart beats for photographing a story worth telling, and finding the funny, quirky, moving little moments throughout that narrative. I always have a smile on my face and love, absolutely love to make people laugh. I can recite funny quotes and sing to you the cheesiest of songs. As cheesy as it may sound, I want to be your friend. I want to laugh throughout the whole day with you, making every moment so memorable and being right by your side to capture it. I want to keep in touch with you after, to see where life takes you!

Far Out Feeling 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Capitola, CA for additional fees

Meaghan here - I’m the one from which you’ll hear a lot of “Fuck yeah!!!” and “You guys look so hot!” My inspiration comes from our lord and savior, Janis Joplin, and my style is free movement and honesty. Howdy! I'm Brendon, a quiet Mid-Westerner turned East-Coast loud-mouth who happens to have a knack for photography, editing, graphic illustration, and all things creative. My background comes from shooting fashion shows and exclusive events for BFA.com around NYC, which made me appreciate the avant-garde.

We had a terrific experience working with Meaghan and Brendon of “Far Out Feeling.” If you’ve made it this far, you already love their style – their ability to capture both candid and staged photos artfully – and we are happy to report that the photographers have personalities to match. We loved meeting them for drinks months in advance of our wedding, which gave us a nice context for one another when the day finally came (we cannot imagine, now, not knowing our wedding photographers when they arrived to take pictures of us!) We perhaps didn’t consider how crucial this feeling of comfort was, but when you think about, you do spend a tremendous portion of your wedding day with your photographers. Meaghan and Brendon felt like friends, which made even the parts of the wedding that we don’t like (posing!) feel easy, natural, and fun. Meaghan and Brendon were incredibly responsive, from first to last. They always got back to us the day we had a question, and even weeks after our wedding, they were responding to our technical difficulties within minutes. And the photos themselves turned out great! Again, you’ve probably seen evidence of this already. We cannot wait to print them, frame them, and, in all likelihood, post them relentlessly to our Instagram stories. A huge thank you to Meaghan and Brendon, who we recommend whole-heartedly.

Hi, I’m Marla, and I’ve had a camera in my hands since I could hold one. Travel is what first sparked my love of photography– I felt the need to document every gorgeous landscape in my sights across Europe, Asia, the South Pacific, and here in the States. Once I started taking portraits, though, everything shifted, and I became obsessed with documenting love. I value photos as memories, and they’re extremely precious to me. To me, the ability to freeze a moment in time so you’ll always be able to return to that beauty and joy is nothing short of magic.

Seriously where to begin with how incredible Marla is as an incredible and artistic photographer, professional and organized business owner, and welcoming and beautiful person. She immediately makes you feel comfortable talking with her and she puts a ton of effort into getting to know you and your story. She cares so deeply about her couples and goes above and beyond with client experience before, during, and after your session with her. You spend a ton of time with your photographer, and this is who you want as your cheerleader, your confidant, and your friend on wedding/elopement day. Her eye for light is inspiring and you never again will say "I'm so awkward in front of the camera" because her posing is effortless and genuine. She brings out the best in you and your partner and your connection. Candid moments, deep emotion, and joyful forever memories! Marla is the photographer you've been looking for!

We're Hugo & Kat, wedding photographers & filmmakers based in Los Angeles. We're a married duo & we genuinely love that we get to pursue this passion together. Our goal is to create a space where you can be completely yourselves. To capture the real essence that makes you, you. Both individually & as a couple.

Hugo and Kat did photo and video for my wedding during the pandemic and they were nothing short of amazing! They were so easy to talk to and I didn’t feel like they were “in our faces” with the cameras. Yet, they happened to capture the most intimate of moments. I’ll forever cherish the photo they captured of me and my dad! As an event professional myself, I have to admit it’s hard to find vendors that still have that freshness and fun. Hugo even managed to convince some of my guests to come out onto the dance floor after they were sitting ducks. That showed me that he wasn’t just there to take photos/videos and call it a day, they were there to go above and beyond and make sure me and my guests had a night to remember. :)

Josie with Give Photography was my wedding photographer and I'm so grateful to her for her incredible photos. My husband and I had never done professional photos and had no idea how to pose or what to do but Josie sure knows a thing or two! She got the most romantic and beautiful photos and everything felt so natural and easy. Plus our reception venue was pretty dark and had weird lighting so a lot of our guests photos didn't turn out, so it was a real gift to have Josie's incredible photos at the reception. I have no idea how she pulled it off but they look so magical and caught everyone having fun, all the exact memories I'll always cherish.

I specialize in documenting weddings! I believe in images that are timeless, true to color, with a touch of moodiness and emotion. Photography is one of the biggest and most important investments you’ll make for your wedding day. Wedding photography isn’t just a financial investment. You’re also investing in a photographer who values and builds that relationship from the start, from planning a custom timeline with you, to going over all the details every step of the way leading up to the wedding day. I want my couples to be as involved in the creative process as I am. It’s all about the experience!

Chamblee and her husband John shot our wedding on 9/1/2019, and let me tell you, we were blown away!! Chamblee was easy to communicate with and always listened to my (sometimes neurotic) concerns and need for affirmation about detail and planning the shots. She is kind, thoughtful, and has incredible vision for capturing your special day. We got our photos back in a timely manner and they were even more beautiful than we could have imagined. Hands down the best investment we made for our wedding. Chamblee has even taken family photos for us, because lets face it, we would never be able to find someone more talented than her! You will not be disappointed if you hire her!

Kelsey is an incredibly talented photographer - she truly "sees" the subject of the photo. She understands their energy, personality, and their comfort (and discomfort) zones. Kelsey has the ability to capture these special moments in time in a photo, that when revisited/looked at after the event, take you RIGHT back to that moment. She is artistic, professional, and consistent with her art and business. She is always exactly where you need her to be, and extremely reliable. She puts the client at ease, even when being in front of a camera is not the most comfortable experience for most people! She is organized in her approach before, during and after the event but never too pushy or overbearing. She listens, observes, and performs at a very high level. Working with Kelsey was a dream, and I feel thankful to have worked with her. I believe the photographer is the most important vendor during the "wedding" process (engagement, wedding, etc.) and I struck gold with Sunbeam!!

Capturing stories and connections through intention, and a bit of magic! I picked up a camera in 2017 and fell in love with the way light hits flowers, faces, fields of grass, and all the things in between. I am obsessed with catching a moment that would otherwise go unnoticed, especially if that moment is candid and filled with life. A great way to get to know me and my style is by following along on Instagram!

Working with Morgan on our recent styled shoot was an absolute dream. Her artistic vision is truly unparalleled—she brings such a natural, ethereal essence to her work, capturing every detail with depth and intention. Morgan’s intuitive approach made the entire process feel effortless and collaborative, and her ability to create images that feel both timeless and alive is unmatched. If you’re looking to tap into your ethereal goddess or simply want to capture a quiet golden hour moment, Morgan is the photographer for you. She has a gift for weaving together light, texture, and emotion, making each element—from florals to fabrics—feel celebrated and alive. I can’t recommend her enough for anyone seeking a photographer who combines heart, creativity, and an eye for beauty in every frame. Thank you, Morgan, for an unforgettable experience!

Our journey into the world of wedding photography and videography began as a shared dream—a dream that brought together our love for storytelling, our appreciation for timeless elegance, and our fascination with the candid, unscripted moments that make every love story unique.

We had our engagement photos taken by We Do Weddings and had a great experience. My wife and I weren't set on a good location, but Jared and Quinn had a couple of suggestions and Freestone Park turned out perfect. They also arrived early and had a couple spots in mind to shoot at, which I really appreciated since it was a warm day and that expedited the process. The shoot was casual and surprisingly fun. They worked quickly but we never felt rushed. They gave great direction (including some pictures of what they were looking for at times) which turned out great. We just got the photos back and my wife and I were blown away. They turned out beautifully and we are so happy with them. The entire experience was a joy and the end result was exactly what we were hoping for.

I started photographing weddings in 2017. I originally got my first camera to photograph landscapes- National Parks specifically. But the second the camera was in my hands, I was immediately drawn to photographing connections between people. Since that moment I haven't hesitated while my heart led me in the direction of wedding and elopement photography! I love documenting the in-between, unprompted moments; the subtle way your partner glances over at you with a side smile when you're not paying attention, the groom fiddling with his new ring, and the uncontrollable laughter when you're melting into each other during your couple's photos.

Tammy is my number one, favorite photographer to work with and the only person who can actually help me relax on a wedding day. I can trust her completely. I never need to worry about where she is, if she's getting the shot, or if she's shooting enough variety. She knows exactly what she's doing from extensive experience and she treats weddings with the same gravity as if it were her own day. Some of my favorite images of all time are just that due to Tammy's ability to read a room and complete the story. She continually brings new skills and her own innovation into every event, which I love to keep up with on her social media. Tammy gets so many compliments in part due to her skill and professionalism, but also because of the energy and perfectionism she will bring to your day. I can't say enough great things about having Tammy as a photographer.

I love mexican food, cats (and dogs!), and iced coffee. Books are my best friends, and I also double as a yoga teacher when I'm not doing photography related things. I have a weird obsession with fuzzy socks and I prefer movies over TV shows. Now on to the typical things you want to know about my journey in photography...I got my first camera in 2009 and basically haven't put it down since! I studied photography at Savannah College of Art and Design and started my freelance photography career when I graduated in 2016!

I’m not a posed kinda gal, I believe in capturing you two as you are and telling your story. I believe in approaching my clients as friends and fostering a connection between us to better be able to tell your story. Right from the moment you hire me, I’m there to help you through the whole planning process.

Be your advocate. I’m in your corner. I know all the best and LGBTQ+ friendly vendors in the business.

Nadine is hands down the most incredible photographer and artist. She has such a unique eye and style, and I knew immediately I wanted her to be our photographer because I had never seen anything quite like the art she creates. Beyond the photographs, she creates a space for you and your partner to really be yourselves - having your portraits taken by Nadine is like hanging out with that super cool human you met that one time at that one concert and had the time of your life adventuring with until 3 am. You don't even notice the time passing, and then you're left with both the experience itself and the beautiful photos afterward. Nadine is a gift to the world, and I can't wait to find a million more reasons to hire her again!

  • Serves Capitola, CA for additional fees

To me love is art, and art is love. My intent is to produce different, authentic, and cinematic imagery for you + your partner to cherish. I work in collaboration with couples to foster a place of intentionality allowing them to feel their most honest selves while engaged in and surrounded by beautiful scenery. I find I create the best art when I'm outside letting my clients exist together, no silly poses or staging, just the moment. Your wedding day is about the connection you two have and I want to produce imagery that honors your connection in an honest and intimate way.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nicole is a very genuine and talented photographer and it shows in her photos. Not only is she great at what she does but she is also very personable and professional! She was amazing with communication before, during, and after the wedding. Before the wedding, she made sure to make a note of any photos we were wanting. She took the time to learn what was important to us and got to know us as a couple and then she captured everything perfectly in every single photo. When we got our wedding photos back we got to re-live our wedding day all over again. We couldn’t stop looking at them because of how amazing they were. They are something that we will cherish forever and I’m so happy that we chose Nicole to capture one of the best days of our life.
