I cannot recommend Emily enough! We found her a few months out from the wedding and did a call to talk about our budget and our vision for our wedding. Emily was so accommodating, shaping a photography and videography package that fit us perfectly! On our wedding day she was incredibly hard working and well prepared. She makes everyone she meets feel comfortable, confident and beautiful in their pictures! On top of honoring our "shot list" and getting all of my top priorities taken care of, Emily scoped out the venue and came up with fun locations and ideas that we hadn't considered! She also played with traditional photography, shooting on film, and polaroids all of which gave us unique looks that we love! If you're looking for a skilled, artistic, and friendly photographer, you've found her!

They were down for every suggestion and worked with all the differing weather conditions that SF threw at us that day. They even made sure to get some great pictures that included our pup!

Six years of taking bright, colorful, fun wedding photos in the city has taught me how to deliver a complete gallery of your day told in an artistic, meaningful, and unobtrusive way--because I'm here to document your day, not to direct it.

Jasmine Lee is a destination wedding and lifestyle photographer residing in San Francisco, California. She is devoted to discerning couples and individuals that value the quality of crafting artistic and timeless imagery they will cherish for a lifetime.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had been following Jasmine on IG long before I knew I was going to be married. Her photos always really spoke to me and I told myself that if I ever got the chance to book her, I would. In 2019, my (now) husband and I got engaged and immediately I knew I had to contact Jasmine, of course I had to show my husband other photographers too (he is the type that needs to see a few options and prices first) but he also felt that Jasmine was the best! So we went ahead and booked Jasmine for our wedding in October 2020. Fast forward to 2020. The year the pandemic hit the world. We knew in April of 2020 that our wedding would have to be moved, there was no way the pandemic was going to be over. We contacted Jasmine and she was immediately responsive, empathetic and agreed to accommodate our change in wedding date, October 2021 an entire year after our original date. Throughout the time we booked Jasmine to the time of our wedding, Jasmine constantly checked in on us and double checked to make sure we were doing ok with everything going on. She helped nudge/remind us to book our pre-wedding/engagement photos (because I kept forgetting/timing was not working for us), and even reminding us on where we should be in wedding planning. Side note: When we DID finally take our pre wedding photos with Jasmine, I was incredibly nervous on how I would look in photos. I am going to be the first to admit that I am NOT photogenic and am already incredibly awkward in photos. When Jasmine sent us our photos after, I was SO BLOWN AWAY! I knew then, we absolutely made the right decision in booking her. Ok back to our actual wedding! Jasmine helped us with our timeline for the day, and we were able to correlate hers and our wedding venues together. On the actual day, Jasmine made not just myself and husband feel super comfortable in front of the camera, but all our family members and bridal party too. She has an incredible eye for detail and will help with posing/styling etc. We absolutely LOVE our wedding photos and we honestly could not have booked a better photographer. To sum up: Jasmine is thoughtful with the way she approaches everything and is an incredibly talented photographer. Jasmine's style is classic and timeless. I know we will be looking and loving all our photos over and over again. I would book Jasmine again in a heartbeat, and will recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer.

We are absolutely obsessed with our wedding photos and videos! This team seriously brought their A-game and made our special day even more magical. From the start, they were super chill and easy to work with. On the big day, they were like ninjas, capturing every awesome moment without being in the way. They have such a knack for finding those perfect, candid shots that totally show the real us. Plus, the way they set up the posed photos. When we got our photos and the video, we couldn't stop smiling and laughing. They caught all the love, laughter, and even the crazy dance moves (hello, epic dance party!). The highlight reel was like a mini movie of the best day ever—we’ve already watched it a million times! The whole experience was just fun and stress-free, thanks to their good vibes and clear communication. They really listened to what we wanted and made sure we felt comfortable and relaxed. Thank you guys !

Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.

Met Nicole while working at a wedding in February 2024. She was very kind to our staff and not in the way at all. She allowed everyone to enjoy the party without blocking views or being rude. Yet managed to do her job with a smile the whole time! She is very pleasant!

Beginning my journey in the world of filmmaking, I initially delved into the realms of music videos and commercials, honing my craft in storytelling and visual artistry. However, it was a serendipitous opportunity to work as a cameraman at a wedding that unveiled my true passion. Now, with 9 years under my belt and hundreds of weddings captured, my love for crafting heartfelt wedding photographs continues to grow, reaching couples across the nation.

George is honestly the best photographer we could’ve asked forbwe can’t stop talking about him to our friends! His photos have this amazing earthy, warm vibe, and he really knows how to capture the adventurous side of things. He’s not just talented, though, he’s super responsive and always willing to work with you. Seriously, if you’re thinking about hiring him, do it. You won’t regret it.

Ashley Guice Creative is a Phoenix-based luxury wedding photographer with a passion for capturing the beauty of human connection. Since 2017, Ashley Guice has been creating stunning images that blend artistic flair with genuine emotion. With over seven years of experience in photography and a decade-long background in the arts, she brings a unique perspective to every event she covers.

We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Ashley! From start to finish, she was an absolute joy to work with. Her attention to detail and creativity truly brought our vision to life, capturing every moment beautifully. We had an unfortunate cancellation of our original venue, and with our new venue having a completely different look, Ashley was a great thought partner in scouting locations and helping us achieve the look and feel in our photos that we were going for. Despite the challenges of a venue change and the usual wedding planning craziness, Ashley remained positive, resourceful, and was also just down right fun to work with! Ashley is a true artist, dedicated to the artful execution of every detail. Nothing felt cookie-cutter or ordinary—she took the time to understand our vision and how we wanted to remember the day and then actualized it through her artistic lens. I wanted something artful, chic, and elevated but also real, candid, and documentary-style—and Ashley delivered exactly that. She was also fantastic at understanding how we wanted to be photographed throughout the day. More than anything, she made sure our enjoyment of the day was a priority over just "getting the perfect shot," which was crucial for us. We were able to enjoy every moment, and the photos capture that perfectly. Her team was amazing, too! We got to work with two of her assistant photographers, and they were just as supportive and friendly as Ashley. We would recommend AGC to any couple looking for a photography team who is dedicated to capturing the essence of your wedding in a way that feels unique, personal, and meaningful. - L & L

We help outdoorsy lovers get married in beautiful outdoor venues provided by Mother Nature herself.

We create inexpensive intimate ceremonies in expansive settings in the woods, river canyons, mountain ridges, deserts, or beaches.

And we document it all with stunning, bold, crystal clear photographs that are a reverie both in nature and love.

Awarded Best of Zola
When My Wiiiiife and I hired Natural Unions, we expected photography. What we Didn't expect was light wedding planning, the ability for The Great Kira: Destroyer of Frowns to be able to help us locate an alternative wedding venue on short notice due to potential weather issues, AND for such exceptional local scouting for the most fantastic locations not only for portraits, but also the ceremony location itself. If you want the same boring overpriced stuff, hire someone else. If you want more fun than you bargained for, and unique lasting snapshots of your special day, hire Natural Unions.

As a devoted wedding and portrait photographer, my primary focus is on authentically capturing the genuine emotions that make up your unique story. My goal is to ensure that your special day is not just visually documented, but deeply felt.

Rafael is hands down one of the best photographers I have worked with. I used his services previously for my mothers wedding and when the day came for mine I knew he was the photographer for us. He is detail oriented, patient, creative and kind. When my husband and I decided to elope we only gave ourselves a week and a half to plan. Rafael was very accommodating to our last minute plans and made us feel as if we had planned our special day a year in advance. Rafael took the time to learn the site and plan beautiful photos accordingly. Rafael gave us great directions on how to pose and what angels would make us stand out. My husband and I are not huge on taking photos and when we received the photos we were amazed ! The photos looked natural and captured who we are as a couple. I look at these photos and feel confident and beautiful! I appreciate all the work Rafael put in to our special day ! We are so excited to share these photos with our loved ones for generations to come.

We absolutely loved working with James and his team on our wedding day! They were so professional, kind, skilled, and made us feel at ease. We were not super comfortable in front of the camera so I was nervous how our photos would turn out, but they created such a relaxed environment, and our photos turned out so beautiful. Really quick editing turn around too, many photographers we scoped out would take 8-12 weeks to turn around all the photos. James and his team delivered nearly 1000 photos to us in just a few weeks. He also came to our rehearsal the night before (completely unprompted!) to scope out the venue ahead of time. Overall a phenomenal experience. I cant wait to work with Bustle and Twine again for family photos in the future. Thank you B&T!!!!
