Alicia and her husband Keith are great! They are very nice and want to make sure your day is special and your photos turn out the way you want them to. Our shot list got a bit crazy the day of, but I think we only ended up skipping a couple photos the whole day. When getting a sneak peek back from Alicia, I noticed my hair and makeup people left my extensions showing! Alicia was nice enough to edit them out of all the photos I felt like they were really obvious in. She also let us request other moments of the day where we thought there may be specific photos that she hadn't originally included in the album. Many she had, some she did not, but it was really nice of her to let us request them! Also, she got us all our photos back only ONE week later!! That is crazy fast! Overall can't go wrong picking Chasing Chickadees! My maid of honor said she liked our photos the best out of all our friends weddings :)

MaddyKate Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Maddy had an effective communication style - she responded quickly to emails and phone calls, and was personable in all of our interactions. Her documentary photography style resulted in high quality photos that truly captured the spirit of our big day. Maddy helped us create a vision for what we wanted our wedding photos to convey. On the wedding day itself, she blended into the background while still getting all the key moments on camera. She made our day a breeze by being exactly where she needed to be, when she needed to be there. The final wedding photo album Maddy created for us is something we will treasure for years. I would highly recommend MaddyKate Photography for wedding photography services

Bouquet Photography

  • Serves Downey, CA for additional fees

Hi! ​My name is Bouquet and I am a published photographer. I was born and raised in Thailand, lived in NJ, HI, and now FL! My portfolio showcases some of my favorite images from the past few years with various lighting and locations, so you know I can handle every situations you may have on your wedding day! I strive to create photographs that not only capture a moment but also capture a feeling and essence.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a non-traditional wedding and were on a tight budget, but Bouquet was able to accommodate us and provide us with a wonderful experience. We were only doing church photos, a few couples' shots, and minimal coverage of our reception. Bouquet sent a thorough questionnaire beforehand to inform her of the run of show for the day and our expectations. She arrived on time, introduced herself and got to work! Bouquet was a joy to work with. She was game for all of our ideas and made sure we got all the requested shots and then some. We wanted to do some more candid photos with grittier NYC shots as the background. Bouquet was totally game and really followed our lead while giving some helpful suggestions for specific poses. She had the best attitude, wasn't pushy at all, and treated everyone so kindly. We loved working with her and highly recommend her for your wedding.

  • Serves Downey, CA for additional fees

My inspiration comes from those childhood photos—the memories they hold, the emotions they evoke, and the connections they preserve. That’s what I aim to create with every wedding I capture: images that transport you back to the most meaningful moments of your life, filling you with the same love and nostalgia every time you look at them. With over five years of experience and more than 75 weddings captured, I’m here to ensure that the most important day of your life is documented with intention, heart, and artistry.

Awarded Best of Zola
It felt like Hana went above and beyond for us but that’s truly just how she works! Leading up to the big day, she was incredibly helpful and answered any and all questions we had. On the big day, like many people are, I was a ball of nerves - Hana and team were the calm I needed throughout the day. She helped us stay on schedule for photos and was flexible when things had to shift. Not to mention, our photos are absolutely incredible!! I wouldn’t change one thing about our experience and I truly cannot recommend Hana enough !!

The Lovely Lens

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,300
  • Serves Downey, CA for additional fees

Hullo! So you're gettin' hitched (YaaY!), but you’re not super into the idea of the overly-manicured wedding. A+ for you, because this is not your parents’ wedding photography. I'm a farm kid who floats between the journalism and art worlds. I love telling stories as much as I love listening to the stories of others. I’m the type of person who makes up musicals for my own amusement and nurses a soft spot for sci-fi and fantasy. If I’m not taking photos, I’m usually dancing. Or cooking. It’s possible I may have a baking addiction and try to mitigate the damage by forcing the goods on loved ones.

Celia is not your typical wedding photographer -- not even close. She is so much more! She's a documentarian, artist, journalist, and storyteller, and that is exactly why working with her was one of the best decisions we made for the best day of our lives! My husband and I wanted a photographer who would prioritize candid photos of genuine emotions and chaos (let's be honest, weddings are chaotic!) as opposed to staged and rigid "everyone-line-up-and-smile" portraits. The Lovely Lens fit that bill entirely. In addition to delivering the most beautiful, vibrant, happy, REAL photos of our wedding weekend, she was also such a lovely presence the whole time (I felt like she was a genuine friend by the end!) Also, she was totally game for everything! Our wedding got a late start thanks to the weather, which squished the time we'd allotted for photos exponentially (we also decided not to have a first look, so the photo time was even more squished). Celia quite literally sprinted through a field of wet grass and mud and then through a secret corridor with us as we rushed to get back to our cocktail hour to be present at our wedding. She is a superhero, and we cannot recommend her enough!

I'm here for the couples that want their wedding to be a damn good time. Whether it's a massive weekend-long wedding with a 30 person wedding party, or a vibrant backyard love celebration with an epic playlist, I will be there to make sure every awesome moment is captured in all its glory!

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the pleasure of having Brynna shoot my wedding and I wouldn't have changed a thing! She made everyone feel so comfortable and confident. Both myself and my (now) husband are pretty shy people and we don't like being the center of attention, she knew exactly how to get us comfortable in front of the camera. She knows how to make everyone have a great time and forget the cameras are even there! Also she will make sure you get all the picture you are imagining and more, so don't be afraid to speak up if you have a vision in your mind! I was so beyond happy with all the pictures she got of the bridal party getting ready, our bridal pictures, our ceremony, or reception, and more. Now I have something to look back on remember how amazing and special our wedding was!! I HIGHLY recommend her for Weddings and any other occasion you want beautiful, authentic memories to look back on.

Skylar Coonan Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Downey, CA for additional fees

Just a little backstory on how I got into this business. When I was a child, I loved taking pictures of everything. And I mean everything! (I get that from my mom.) Now my dad didn't share this same joy as me because back then it was all film and every snapshot I took...he knew he had to pay to develop. We love to look back on that time of my life now and see where it got me. Its a funny story to reflect on, but so rewarding to see a joy turn into a passion and that passion turn into a career!

Awarded Best of Zola
Words can’t explain how happy we were to have Skylar capture our wedding day and engagement photos! She is extremely easy to work with through the entire process. After meeting her for the first time, we knew that we had someone personable, dependable, and talented. Her photos/style captured our happiness while highlighting the beauty of the moment. I could go on and on about how fabulous she is! Save yourself the trouble of searching for a photographer and have her be a part of your special day!

100/10 recommend her to be your photographer. My husband and I meet Jessica 5 years before we actually ended up setting a date and getting married. Somehow when we finally decided to put a date on the calendar we reached out and Jessica still remembered us like we just talked recently. Working with her has been so easy and smooth sailing. She is crazy organized and very responsive along with an open mind and helped with some accommodations to make our day super special! I will definitely be booking for family sessions and more with her!!

We are so happy we chose Lucia to capture our elopement. Lucia is professional, fast to respond to emails and texts, helpful with decisions, accommodating to any requests, concerns, and excited to give advice. Duncan and I really wanted our photographer to capture our true emotion and to get candids of us, and Lucia DID THAT! The day felt blissful and a key point for us was that we got to enjoy the day without it feeling solely like a photoshoot which I think speaks to Lucias talent and confidence in her craft. She was good at giving guiding advice for posing without us feeling posed. I put together a Pinterest board and shot list which she really did a great job pulling inspiration from. The photos are stunning and the exact style we envisioned. Also, our sneak peak was huge and she got them to us very fast. If you are torn between photographers or are just starting your research, you're in very safe hands to stop here. We hope to continue reaching out to Lucia in the future when we start a family.

Estelle Marie Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first connected, Marie's calm, direct, sweet, and professional communication style put us at ease. Her candid, bright, composed, and romantic photography captured the beauty of our special day perfectly. When things didn't go quite right, as naturally happens during weddings, Marie rolled with the punches and helped me stay calm. She did just as much coordination day-of as the DJ did, if not more, ensuring everything flowed seamlessly. We are thrilled with the final photos and would highly recommend Estelle Marie Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to even begin! We hired Diana for our engagement & wedding photos after many trusted friends recommended her to us as a queer-friendly photographer. And we are so glad we did! We were blown away at how the photos turned out and absolutely loved working with her. Diana is professional, fun to be around, and she is extremely talented at what she does. She made our shoots feel calm and enjoyable, and she always captured the best moments. Her editing is absolutely beautiful, too! She has a way of highlighting our best qualities while also maintaining the integrity of what makes us all unique as people. She pays special attention to details and really listens to what her clients want. As a queer couple, it can feel extra vulnerable to open up and be so visible with a camera in front of you, especially if you didn't know the photographer beforehand—it meant everything to us that Diana was always so warm, accepting, and kind. We really felt like we could be ourselves and that really shows in our photos. Hiring Diana was one of the best decisions we've ever made as a couple. When we had to reschedule and adjust our wedding multiple times because of the pandemic, she was flexible and worked with us every step of the way. She was actually the one who first recommended the venue we ended up going with! We cannot ever thank her enough. You will not be disappointed!

He was able to capture a lot of laughs and love through the photos. My husband hates posing for photos, but Ney was able to guide both of us for the perfect picture.

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.

I absolutely LOVED working with Sarah as my wedding photographer! From the moment I booked her until the final gallery was delivered, I couldn't have had a better experience. Sarah made everything so fun, made me feel like her most important client, and most of all, genuinely cared about what my husband and I hoped for in our wedding photos. She brought so much energy to our day, and was an absolute joy to hang out with all day. My husband, not one for all the details and photos, even had the best experience of his life with her. Best of all, we are in LOVE with each and every one of the photos from Sarah! Each one perfectly captures a memory and a moment (in the most beautiful possible way) that my husband and I will treasure forever. We cannot recommend Sarah enough!!

I am incredibly grateful and impressed by the level of effort Lauren put in with such little time to go. The day of the wedding she went out of her way to buy props that she thought fit our aesthetic and she exceeded anything I could have come up with on my own. She truly made us feel like the day was ours and that we were the guests of honor at our wedding and I can’t say enough great things. The pictures came back in less than 2 months which was the perfect time to go through and relieve the moments. We even received preview pictures early on to hold us over.

I'm in love with human emotions, either it's laughing till it hurts or tears of happiness. When your man hugs you so strong, that you can't breathe or when your dad is crying (for the first time in his life!) listening to your vows at the altar. I do believe, that these un-staged moments are more meaningful than classy portraits on a sunset (but no worries, you'll plenty of both!) If you feel like we are on the same page - let's talk! Write me a few words about who you are, tell me your story and let's create something beautiful together!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are reading this, go book Dasha! The wedding photographer was the most important vendor for us. After talking to many photographers, we ended up booking Dasha and that's the best decision we've ever made. Through our engagement session, we got so comfortable in front of her camera and the photos turned out great. Ahead of the wedding, I had a final meeting with Dasha and you could tell that she cares about her couples and gives good advice on the timeline. On the wedding day, her professionalism and creativity made the day so easy for us, and we didn't need to give her a long shortlist because we trusted her. When we received the full gallery, we were so BLOWN AWAY. The editing style speaks for itself. We also loved the way she documented our special - it feels very natural and authentic. Many of our families and friends asked us who our photographer was, and we cannot recommend Dasha enough. Thank you, Dasha!!

Photography truly has a full grip on my soul– I love EVERYTHING about capturing special moments to be forever held in time! I consider my style to be way more candid, as I truly adore capturing an authentic experience that is almost tangible to the person viewing the photo. I want the viewer to feel the emotion and as if they were there with us right back in that moment. I love realness of a perfect candid shot…my goal—especially with couples—is to get to the heart of their connection and connect with my couples, as well, to truly make them feel comfortable in front of the lens so that we can get to those authentic magic shots!

We had the best experience with Shannon on our wedding day! She was very communicative before hand and the day of was ran very smoothly. She made us all feel very comfortable and stress free. She provided us an awesome sneak peek shortly after our wedding and the online gallery within the promised time frame. Her work is beautiful and exactly what we could have hoped for! Her services are also very affordable and customizable to what you desire or can afford. I would highly recommend!!

Hey babes, I'm Khali! I'm a wedding photographer based in Portland, Oregon capturing ALLLLL the love! I love candid, raw and authentic moments. My photography shouldn't feel posed or unnatural. It should be all about documenting you for who you really are; whatever your love language may be. I will always do everything I can to make sure your day is spectacular. Transparency is super important to me, so if you have any questions - just ask!

Working with Khali from KMT Photos during the styled shoot at Pelican Brewing - Siletz Bay was an absolute delight. Her communication was open, effortless, and collaborative, making the entire process smooth and enjoyable. The quality of her work was outstanding—her passion and keen attention to detail produced photographs that perfectly captured the beauty of the day.

I’m Kristen, your Napa-based natural light photographer effortlessly capturing your wedding with a little humor and a lot of heart. Are you a KCP Couple? Are you kind, vivacious, and have impeccable style? Do you appreciate the finer details? Are you classy, but still enjoy a good sense of humor? Do you love when things run on time? Do you know how to throw a good party? If you said yes to any of these, then I believe this is the start of something beautiful!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very beginning, Kristen made us feel comfortable. She was able to take charge when it rained on our wedding day and delayed the ceremony by over an hour. I do not know what we would have done without her!! She kept everyone laughing and relaxed, and for that I cannot thank her enough. Even with the delay, she was able to finish the family pictures, our couples pics, and the wedding party AND still managed to get us to the reception ON TIME! She was absolutely incredible and even our wedding planner was so impressed by her! The pictures turned out to be everything we imagined and more and we cannot recommend her enough to our friends and family.

From the initial appointment, Lindsay was so warm and friendly - she made the entire process so unbelievably smooth. I never once had to worry or ask for communication - because she was always on top of everything before I had to ask. She was a great resource for us. When it came to the engagement session, ceremony, and reception, Lindsay made us feel so comfortable (we are notoriously awkward in front of a camera & she really made us feel 100% comfortable, which made every event more fun because she could capture our most authentic selves. Any random idea I saw I would ask her about and she was so receptive to it all & catered the entire experience to us (she also gave incredible ideas that fit with our personal style which were some of my favorite shots). Overall - we LOVED working with her & I would not have changed a single thing about her or the process, she did a fabulous job capturing our special days & she acclimated exceptionally to the different styles of each event.

I’ve been happily married for almost 27 years. I have three awesome sons. My parakeets Kiwi and Sparky are very social, meaning very loud! Champagne (maybe that’s why I love weddings) and sushi lover here! Photography has been my passion ever since my dad gave me my first film camera and introduced me to the dark room at age of 10. I lived in Japan for 12 years, and even performed on a stage there. I’m always up for a great road trip! I love tuna fishing. I love hats and want to wear them everyday (over 20 hats in my collection). I’ve been shooting beautiful weddings for almost 10 years. I secretly cry at every wedding.

I’m Katy, a Michigan based wedding + event photographer who loves to travel. I’ve been photographing weddings since 2016. My love for photography started out when I was about 6 years old. I’m a huge goofball, so if you’ve ever thought “I’ll be too awkward in photos," I know what you mean. We can be goofballs together, and I promise I won’t let you look awkward in any of your photos. A little more about me: I'm a foodie. Send bar/restaurant recommendations please! I spend a good portion of my time at concerts when I'm not photographing anything. I'm also a HUUUUGE Detroit Red Wings fan!

From the moment we decided to go with Katy from Meininger Media LLC, we knew she was the perfect fit. She was so easy to talk with and communicated with us every step of the way, always supporting our ideas and willing to listen. Katy was a joy to have at our wedding, and everybody there loved her. The photos she captured were absolutely stunning - we couldn't imagine our wedding day without her there. The quality of her work and the value she provided was incredible. We are over the moon with how all the photos turned out and will cherish them forever.

All of your visions will come to life, and it’ll be the best day of your life!

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding! Not only was she incredibly personable and easy to work with, but her communication throughout the entire process was flawless. It truly felt as though we were talking to a life long friend. She really took the time to understand our vision and executed it beyond our expectations. On the day of the wedding, she went above and beyond by acting as a liaison between us and our coordinator, which was such a relief and something she didn’t even have to do. I, as the bride, even had one one time where she helped me with my dress and to fix my hair. And to top it all off, we received our pictures much faster than expected, and they were absolutely stunning! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who truly cares and delivers on every level. I look at our pictures so often and can't stop raving about them to anyone who will listen!
