HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts! (But I mean who isnt! I just cant help it!) FUN FACT: I speak switzerdütsch, aka a German slang. My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

Ashley Cynthia Photography was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding day! From our first meeting, Ashley's positive, professional, and fun communication style put us at ease. On the big day, she and her talented and detail-oriented team worked tirelessly to capture all of those special moments. Ashley kept me smiling even during some family stress. The beautiful photos she delivered showcase her artistry and really capture the love and joy we felt. I was wowed by her determination to get the perfect shot. Ashley and her crew were consummate professionals and we could not be happier with the gorgeous photos to remember our wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
Matthew took our wedding photos back in February 2024 and we could not have asked for a better photographer. Before the wedding we had several calls and he made sure he knew how the day was going to run and what type of photos we wanted him to prioritize. We really wanted a lot of candid moments of us and our family and Matthew delivered! He captured some amazing and beautiful moments from our ceremony and many fun moments from our reception as well a little details that we did not have time to appreciate because we were so busy being the “bride and groom” in the moment! We are finally taking some time to print our photos and looking back through our gallery makes us feel like we are reliving our beautiful day over and over again. Thank you Matthew for capturing so many beautiful moments that we will look back on and cherish for the rest of our lives. Highly recommend working with him for photos that will make your heart smile.

Memories By Lindsay

I love capturing people at their happiest times. I'm not about forced awkward posing, I want the real kind of love, the kind of love where you are so in the moment I'm capturing the in-between when you think no one is watching. I want the steamy, intimate, kiss you on the neck, pull her hair back, smack her butt, kind of love. Capturing real moments with real people, That's photography to me.  

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked Lindsay for our wedding in my husband’s hometown, and it was by far the best decision and investment we made. From the moment I saw her page, I knew I had to book her because of the beautiful candid style and artistry of her photography. As a stressed bride being my own planner, I was so grateful for Lindsay’s guidance and resources during the planning process. I had full confidence that our wedding day would be captured just how it was, perfect. And Lindsay delivered. All of our guests commented on how professional and organized she was during the whole event, and how she made everything feel seamless. If there is one thing every bride/groom must do, it is to book Lindsay for their wedding (or any other event for that matter).

  • Serves Carlsbad, NM

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. 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.

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. If you're looking for a photographer who will not only deliver stunning, romantic images but also add a touch of warmth and personal connection to your wedding day, we wholeheartedly recommend Kiersten. She is truly one of the sweetest souls.

Hi hi! My name is Nevaeh and I'm so honored that you have taken the time to look at my work! I am based out of both Joshua Tree, CA, and Albuquerque, NM. I am originally from New Mexico, but I moved to SoCal when I married my dreamy Marine. I have a cutesy pup names Rocky who is energetic and cuddly.

Nevaeh is not only an amazing photographer, but she’s an amazing person who is always smiling and working hard to capture the right moment. She photographed our wedding in 2020 (during Covid). It was a small outdoor wedding. She captured some amazing photos and always did so with a smile. She has so many great ideas and made it so easy to pose. She was great to work with and would recommend her to anyone in search of a photographer from family photos, senior photos to weddings. Nevaeh is your photographer!

STEPHANE LEMAIRE PHOTOGRAPHY 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Carlsbad, NM

I first started working for an Architectural Photography studio in 2001, after graduating from Photography School in Paris. Architecture photography is all about composition. I would go around the city photographing buildings and structures with those big cameras that you see in old movies. Although I gained lots of experience in photography technique and image processing in the dark room, I always felt I was missing something. In 2004, I started working for a Wedding Photography studio and photographed my first wedding. From then on I fell in love with the beautiful world of Wedding Photography, full of intense emotions and experiences.

Stephane was truly a highlight of our engagement and our wedding day! He and his assistant were incredibly thoughtful, helpful, and they made each moment meaningful! I really appreciated the fact that he spent time with us before we booked him so everyone would feel confident it was a good fit! He put it best - if he’s excited about us and our wedding, the photos will reflect that and same with us - if we’re excited about him photographing our wedding, then we’ll put our best into it! Stephane and his team were just absolutely lovely. He made sure to get the shots we asked for, but also let us have fun on the big day! I’ve seen too many couples throughout the years who get dragged out of fun dancing for photos and he was so mindful to let us have our fun and pull us away only for a second when we weren’t actively doing something! Hiring him was the best decision my husband and I made! I would do everything over in a heartbeat. My mother passed away two months before the wedding and he texted me a sweet message expressing his condolences when he found out and was incredibly respectful when I asked if he could take pictures of us visiting my mother’s grave after the ceremony. If you’re considering hiring him, please do!! You will not regret it! He’s worth every single penny and then some and he will take absolute great care of you and your spouse! My husband is the absolute pickiest guy on the planet and he’s already told Stephane that he’d like him to take our future child’s baby photos! LOL if that’s not enough of a testimony, I’m not sure what is!! Stephane, thank you and your assistant for everything!!! We had an absolute blast and we loved working with you two. We hope to work with you again soon!

So here's the tea... I'm a wise-cracking, extroverted Capricorn who excels at corralling your rowdy family for photos and charming Aunt Carol, the self-deemed professional iPad photographer. Ever since I was little, huddled on the couch with my five siblings rewatching The Lion King, I knew that I wanted to be a storyteller. Growing up in a creative household, I studied a wide range of arts before settling on filmmaking. I envisioned in my head that I would be the next Spielberg, but after shooting my first wedding in 2013 all my plans changed.

Maya was my wedding photographer at my wedding in Flagstaff, AZ at Aldea Wedding in the Woods and she was PHENOMENAL. Her energy is out of this world & you cannot help but smile and laugh around her. She quickly feels like family. Not only does she have the most insanely wonderful personality that brightens the room but her photos she took are STUNNING! She really has such an eye for capturing the perfect moments and the quality and colors are just perfect. Myself, my now husband, and friends and family were just in awe when I showed them. I just got married two days ago and the day after my wedding she sent me sneak peek photos and there were SO many - I couldn’t believe how fast the turnaround was. And there’s more photos to come! Everything was just stunning I can’t rave about her enough. You need to hire Maya!!!! Also my friends and family couldn’t stop talking about how fun she was. We love you Maya you are amazing!!!

There are not enough words to express just how unbelievable Mike and Christine are! We originally chose them because we were fortunate enough to have witnessed them at work. They were the most impressive photography/videography team we had ever seen, and we needed them for our wedding! Trust me when I say, they are even better than you can possibly imagine. From our initial meeting, all the way through the process of engagement photos and finally the wedding itself, they were incredible. They respond almost immediately with any questions you might have. They made sure that all of our requested photos were taken and made sure that we stayed as close to our timeline as possible. The teaser video and highlight videos that Mike created are truly magical. I am completely obsessed with them. He was able to capture footage of everything, without us even knowing he was there. Mike and Christine are true artists with the most unbelievable eye for detail. I cannot recommend them highly enough and I know that we would have been disappointed had we chosen anyone else.

I’m sure your mind is racing with all that needs to be planned. It’s all very exciting but it can also be somewhat overwhelming. You’re planning the day that you’ve been anticipating your whole life and yet you only get one shot at it! By the time you get the hang of it, the planning is over! My goal as a wedding photographer is to make this one aspect of the planning process simple. Photography is more than just images, it’s a real part of your day. Not only do you deserve beautiful images, you also deserve an amazing photographic experience.

From the moment we met Sarah, to today, I have to say Sarah is not just a photographer...she's a memory creator, unspoken coordinator, friend, and even family. Sarah is the type of photographer that you are surprised is as amazing as she is because she can balance being fun, professional, staging, and capturing EVERY SINGLE perfect moment. We've just started going through our final wedding photos, and are shocked to go, "Wow how did she get that photo?!" During the event itself, Sarah made sure to talk to everyone to stage for every photo we wanted, and she captured every detail of the venue perfectly. She also spent some of her time making sure my husband and I had EVERYTHING we needed to have our special day. Sarah is by far one of the best vendors I've ever worked with, and will be a consistent photographer of ours until the day she retires. Do NOT let her get away from doing your event!!!!

By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

First off just like that, the day got a whole lot better now that you are here! But let’s get one thing straight: if you are here, I want you to feel free to be YOU! Being true to who you are makes this process a hell of a lot easier! This is a judgment-free free safe space, and I want you to be as comfortable as humanly possible! Now that’s out the way, I'm Jovan Kiah, specializing in wedding and portrait photography located somewhere in the cornfields of Indiana. But always prepared for a photography adventure, I’m already packed with a suitcase of snacks, my passport, & playlist that spans from Disney musicals to '90s R&B hits.

Jovan was absolutely amazing to work with. On our calls before the big day, she was always happy and excited and answered all of our questions and it gave us such a sense of ease. I never once had to worry and stress about photos. Day of the wedding, she completely killed it. She was still her happy self but was able to organize us and snap some amazing photos. She worked with me on some odd family and friend dynamics and eliminated any worries I had. She did a fantastic job of catching the perfect small moments, some of which I didn’t even know she was capturing. The photos are all so naturally beautiful and I can’t even begin to describe how much we love them. They are clean and bright and show us, our personalities, and our people perfectly. 100% the best decision we made.

She is scheduled to shoot several of my friends events as well. We adore her and you are missing out if you don’t book with her! She is easy on the pocket book AND a joy to be around.

We've been photographing and videotaping weddings and events for over 24 years. We really enjoy being able to document a this special time in a couple's beginning. Often times we become friends with them and get to follow their life journey after the wedding by also documenting other special moments like births, birthdays and more.

Working with Jamie and Crystalline Photography & Video was amazing! She was so communicative during the preparation process and after the wedding. During the wedding, she made sure we knew that she was on top of things and assisted where needed, but then we barely saw her or her team which was exactly what we needed to be able to enjoy the wedding! Afterwards, she sent us an online gallery of photos so we could look at them as well as our highlight reel while we were waiting for the video and the rest of the photos, all which she communicated via email in detail. Jamie also sent me reminders of when payments were due (and as a forgetful ADHD bride, I greatly appreciated that). Jamie and her team produced INCREDIBLE work and I’m so happy I picked Crystalline Photography & Video to document our wedding! Thank you!!

I am lucky; I get to do what I love for a living, have a ton of fun doing it, and meet a lot of great people along the way. It's a bonus that I get to also travel a lot for it as well. I hope to always bring that enthusiasm and fun to every wedding as well. I tell myself before every wedding to treat it like it was my very first. I do only weddings, and I only do 30 per year. This lets me focus on my couples and their weddings, and to tell their stories completely. Over 400 weddings spanning 12+ years. And I have never missed a one. Not even late. I may not take myself too seriously, but I take my commitment to my couple seriously.

Cody was brilliant! I could not recommend him enough. I’m usually very camera anxious and hate my picture being taken so having a photographer follow me around for an entire day would typically be my nightmare. However, Cody made me so comfortable and was such a calming energy. I LOVE how our photos turned out and my husband and I look so natural and fantastic in every picture! My only complaint it how I’m going to be able to decide which ones to frame for my walls…I may need more walls!
