Jaira + Jesse

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Chico, CA for additional fees

We're Jaira + Jesse. We’re equal parts homebodies and avid travelers. We had a traditional wedding, and while it was the right decision for us at the time, looking back it could’ve been so much more intentional, focused on us + our relationship, and the things we’re the most passionate about. Because of that, we have grown to be super passionate and dedicated to helping couples create elopements and intimate weddings that are the truest reflection of themselves in the places that inspire them the most and documenting that for them.

Jaira and Jesse were absolutely incredible. My wedding was anything but normal thanks to Covid... they both stuck with me the entire way and went above and beyond to make sure they would make it(now to another state) to capture my wedding. They even helped me day of and did more than I could’ve ever expected to help make sure it all ran smooth just because that’s the kind of people they are. Their character speaks volumes for their work and their love and passion for photography speaks for itself in my pictures. I would recommend them time and time again as they were such a memorable part of my special day. Thanks guys for everything!

Hey, how cool of you to end up here. I promise not to bore you with a bunch of flowery language or over-the-top promises. I love to document real moments. Weddings, elopements, couples' shenanigans - you name it, I am here for it. I do this with a healthy dose of humor, a dash of sarcasm and a whole lot of heart. So if you're looking for someone to capture your day in all its imperfect glory, say something, let's make it happen.

Loy at Sweet Lime takes some great photos. He was a joy to work with and helped set the room up by providing a suggestion that none of the restaurant staff, or us, had thought of which ended up working swimmingly. The day of the wedding, he was present but also not too if that makes sense. He was kind enough to send us a couple preview shots while we impatiently/patiently waited. The photos are well worth the wait. I would be happy to recommend Sweet Lime Photography. You will not be disappointed in his service.

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.

Anton and Natalie were absolutely amazing to work with! I was stuck on making a wedding timeline and they took right over and sent me one to get me started! Communication leading up to the big day was frequent and helpful. On the big day, Natalie went above and beyond, holding my train, holding my drink, and stepping in and buttoning my dress when my mother wasn't able. I will forever be grateful for all of the extra things she helped with that day. The photos were excellent and had their artistic touch that makes them unique and standout photographers. They definitely have a long and successful career ahead of them.

Hey, hi, hello! My name is Nancy Chhin, I’m a wedding and elopement photographer based in Portland, Oregon. I grew up in Southern California, I visited Oregon once and fell in love! I’m totally a kid at heart, so much so that I still have a giant stuffed shark on my bed and my favorite food will forever be cheesy fries. I’m the type of person that will say hello to every dog I meet on the street and freak out when I see a dog hanging their head out of their persons car or when I see cows grazing while driving down the backroads. I'm a huge lover of the outdoors and quiet mornings with a huge cup of coffee and reading on the balcony.

Forevermore by Nancy was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the start, their communication was quick, dependable, and extremely organized - making the planning process a breeze. On the day of, they made taking pictures easy and took off any pressure, allowing us to just enjoy the moment. The quality of their work is truly stunning, with gorgeous, fun photos that captured all the special details. They were so kind and fun to work with throughout the entire process.

I like to think of myself as a lil bit southern, lil bit punk, and a whole lotta rock-n-roll. I’m a PBR lover, hardcore show corner dweller, disco ball queen. You’re going to hear me say, “hell yeah, brother” more than twice, Dale Earnhardt is an icon, and Dolly Parton is royalty. You'll love me if you're a little trashy, always classy, badass, sometimes chic, forever romantic. Unwedding, editorial, nontraditional, offbeat, colorful, joyful, film-inspired, and disco vibes always. If you like, I'll wear a rainbow suit, I'll definitely dance with your mom, and I will always be a champion for you and your lover.

Kathleen is AMAZING. She did our engagement photos and I cannot speak highly enough. She was so cool to work with, had a great eye for location, and was so fantastic with coordinating our forever-awkward selves to get some incredible shots. We both get very anxious on camera but she made the whole experience so safe and welcoming that we ended up having a so much fun. Her communication throughout has been absolute top tier - we knew exactly what to expect every step of the way - and the end result is beyond our wildest dreams. 10/10, cannot recommend her enough and can’t wait to work with her again in the future!

Hi there, I'm Tori! I'm a photographer based in Gardnerville, NV just South of Lake Tahoe, and I love adventures. You want to go for a hike around Emerald Bay, go off-roading at Moon Rocks, or have your photos taken on a helicopter overlooking Reno I'm your girl.

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our special day than Tori! She expertly guided us through poses, coordinated seamlessly with vendors, and kept everything on schedule. We had an extra photographer for the ceremony and together they captured every moment beautifully. Tori ensured our family photos were efficient yet relaxed while the extra photographer captured cocktail hour memories with other guests. Tori’s energy made the day fun, and she always worked to keep our dog's attention for adorable shots. The communication was flawless, and she always prioritized our wishes over family and guests' demands. Overall, we highly recommend Tori! She not only captured beautiful moments but also contributed to making our wedding day stress-free and unforgettable.

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

Hi!! I'm Christine. I'm a photographer based in Redmond, OR with a passion for capturing love stories and moments. I started this photography adventure in the search for my calling. I've always had a love for looking at old photos at my grandmas house, studying the emotions of people I didn't know, and being taken back to a moment in my memories. Photography is something that I love to do because it allows me to be creative and social. I get to meet the most amazing humans, put smiles on their faces, and give them something that they can cherish for the rest of their lives.

Where do I even start with Christine! She is a wonderful person and was an amazing photographer to work with. 10/10 would recommend her to all! Her style is exactly what I hoped for - warm, fun, and perfectly representative of our personalities. She did both our engagement photos and our wedding photos and I’m so happy we have her beautiful work for our memories. Christine is caring, professional, and quick to support. She made our wedding day fun and relaxed, and we never felt nervous in front of her lens. Christine, thank you for everything. We are so glad we got to work with you!

My name is Giovanna (you can call me Gio!) and I'm a traveling wedding photographer based in North Carolina. I've photographed everywhere from the DMV, NYC, Colorado, Hawaii, Spain to tons of other locations. Having a background in photojournalism, I photograph with a documentary approach which allows an organic and authentic feel to shine through my images. If you value emotion, connection, and creative storytelling, then I'm your girl. I was born in the bustling city of NY and later moved to a horse farm in NC. I was constantly amazed by my ever changing environments and inspired to capture moments that would otherwise be lost in memory.

Gio is INSANELY talented. I’ve worked with her for several life events, the biggest and most important investment being our wedding. Gio is professional and organized, a dream for any bride to work with. She has a gift for making you comfortable in front of the camera and provides expert guidance that makes shooting with her feel effortless. Her passion for her craft is palpable, and you know it’s good when she turns the camera around and says “YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS!” Every album I’ve received is a breathtakingly beautiful, cinematic keepsake of the most special moments. Her work is literal ART. I’ll never forget the emotional experience of receiving our wedding album - we literally laughed and cried for hours. Every detail and moment is so intentionally and artfully captured. It’s been two years and I still swoon over our wedding photos. I’ve had several (also obsessed) friends inquire about our wedding photography and even book their weddings with Gio. She is easily one of the best investments I made for my wedding day and I can’t say enough positive things. As a repeat client, I so look forward to working with her again in the future. No question - book with Gio!

Ninety Nine Photography

  • Fine art style

  • Serves Chico, CA for additional fees

Yadira is a Bakersfield native that was raised by immigrant parents. She fell in love with love at a young age through art, music, & poetry. From that inspiration, Yadira always wanted to create art with love as the central theme. She began doing photography at the age of 14 and was mentored by local published and award winning photographers for 3 years. By the age of 17, she moved to North Hollywood where she was taught and mentored by high end fashion photographers who worked for Vogue, Vanity Fair, Style Magazine, Elle, and more.

What I love about Ninety Nine Photography is that it is more than just one experience. They do all of the big moments and the short sweet moments of our lives. My wedding would have not been the same with another photographer, simply for the fact, that Yadira listened to what we really needed for our big day. A great choice indeed!

A Charleston Wedding Photographer with a fierce love for storytelling, fostering memories and capturing those moments that you will want to treasure forever. I get to tell your story. And, I think that’s pretty cool. I love traveling everywhere and anywhere, talking with my hands, buying plants (and attempting to keep them alive), and spending as much time as I can with my loved ones. I have lived in Boston, Paris, and New York City, and am now lucky enough to call Charleston home, while also still traveling the world for my clients. You can usually find me on my back porch in downtown Charleston, right next to my favorite little park.

tldr: Jessica is amazing and I don’t think you can go wrong with her if this is the style of photos you like I had a lot of difficulty picking a photographer as I’m pretty picky with photos. I knew I wanted something bright and light, with kind of a whimsical or ethereal vibe, but it was really hard finding the style until I came across the “fine art” style. Jessica’s name came up while researching this style and I decided to reach out to her among a few other fine art photographers. I definitely hoped talks would go well with Jessica as the others I contacted ended up either not responding or were wildly out of my budget. Pre-Planning: Jessica was wonderful throughout this process. She promptly responded to my emails and answered questions clearly. I never felt like I was left in the dark for any part of the process. When I sent her the timeline of the ceremony/reception, she quickly came up with a timeline to slot in all the photos to be taken ahead of time at the location (We had access to the venue for a little over an hour prior to the ceremony). She also asked for a list of family photos that we wanted to take. This made it very easy at the wedding as she could call out people’s name to make sure everyone that was supposed to be in the pictures, were in the pictures. Jessica also sent over a list of ideas for detail shots and explained she could do this ahead of time. We didn’t want extra pictures of these and decided against it, however, I still thought it was very thoughtful of her to offer. Wedding Day: I loved her energy at the wedding. She was very calm and felt very competent. She directed my husband and I throughout the pictures, showing us poses etc. During family and wedding party photos, even though we had many bodies to fit in the frame in quite a few pictures, she led us through them with ease and the entire experience was very stress free (or as stress free as can be at a wedding lol). The venue was quite dim at specific locations, but the final results did not reflect that at all. The pictures were bright and did not look like they were taken in the dark at all. (This is a little off topic but I loved the little apron with pockets she wore for her equipment. So cute) I’m not sure when Jessica had the time, but there were pictures around the venue which were so beautiful. I definitely feel like the day was captured through the pictures. Post Wedding: Jessica sent us a sneak peak 2 days after the wedding containing 23 pictures. They turned out great and were beautiful. You can see examples on her website so I won’t elaborate, but they really are that good. The full gallery was sent almost a month after the wedding (minus 2 days) with instructions on purchasing prints or an album attached. The full download contained 650ish files, including the sneak peek pictures. Half of which were black and white, so this matched up pretty perfectly with Jessica’s estimation of the amount of photos when we spoke in the pre-planning stage.

I’m a wedding vendor, (Someone Said Yes DJ), and have worked with Rachel twice now. She’s awesome. What’s important to me is a few things. 1 - fun to work with. It’s a serious team effort to rock a wedding. Everyone has to be positive and on point. 2 - guest interaction has to be upbeat and professional. The photographer communicates with the guests to line up the photos. This has to be done with a great attitude and with professional instruction 3 - photos have to look amazing. This is what it comes down to. I love working with Rachel and am pretty confident you and your guests will feel the same. And don’t forget, your photos will be beautiful.
