Hey there! Welcome! My name is Taylor- I am so glad you’re here! I am a documentary photographer based in the West Coast. I LIVE for capturing your love! You and your love story are anything but typical, and I strive to document that in the most candid and authentic way. My style is candid, documentary with a sprinkle of editorial. I want you to be YOURSELVES so I can help tell your true story. You've got incredible style, an amazing personality, and captivating energy that's impossible to ignore. So why should you settle for photos that don't reflect that? You deserve photos that celebrate your most alive and authentic selves!

Awarded Best of Zola
Taylor hopped on to shoot our wedding the night before after our photographer unexpectedly couldn’t make it - and boy are we lucky that she did! Her photos are beautiful, her attention to detail (I love me some detail shots!) was wonderful, and her kindness made the awkwardness of posing for pictures feel natural! She edited super quickly, was very responsive afterwards, and provided us with several sneak peaks the very next day. My husband and I are thrilled to see the finished product, we are so grateful to have worked with such a kind and flexible photographer who quite literally saved us at the last minute!

What if your photos actually looked and felt like you? Picture yourself 10 years from now on your wedding anniversary looking back at your wedding album with tears welling up in your eyes as you relive your day. Your wedding should not feel like a performance. Let go of boring wedding traditions, think outside of the box and create something unique that has never been done before. Whatever the perfect day looks like for you, why shouldn’t that be your wedding day? I am more than your wedding photographer, I am your guide, biggest fan, and the curator of your love story, I will also be the one tearing up from behind my lens.

Danielle was professional, warm, and knowledgeable. She guided us through every step of our day and weathered through unexpected torrential downpours and hurricane winds all while keeping morale up for the whole wedding party! Danielle took the time to get to know what we wanted and needed from her and her intuition filled in the parts that we didn’t even know we needed. Loved Danielle, Love love love our photos, couldn’t recommend her enough!

I've always had a love for color and light, and a passion for landscapes and people. Ever since highschool and into college photography was just something that, no pun intended, caught my eye. I've been shooting weddings for 6 years now and there's nothing Id rather be doing. I'm married to the love of my life Rachel, sandwiches are my favorite food and I love long walks on the beach. Seriously I do :)

Dylan photographed our wedding at the Madonna Inn and did such a great job! We ended up with so many beautiful pictures that we could never decide which are our favorites and practically none of our friends were able to make it through the entire wedding album that we shared. He chatted with us in advance by phone, to go over all the details; and had plenty of good ideas for photo opportunities around the property on that day. Very happy with our choice to book Dylan on Zola!

Jules and her husband were so amazing to work with. My husband and I were both very nervous and they made us very comfortable right off the bat. We wanted a moody but organic vibe and boy did they deliver. There was the perfect mix of candid shots and posed shots and the photos captured of our special day exceded any and all of our expectations. Never in my life have I seen a photo of myself looking and feeling so beautiful. I was like THIS IS ME?! THIS IS US?! 10/10

I have 12 years of photography experience, 6 years in the industry and have shot more than 180 weddings. Safe to say, this IS my passion. Couples and wedding photography can be SO stressful--the pressure to look and be a certain way or follow trends is INTENSE. Wedding stress is real and I am anti it all the way. For my couples, they're job is just to show up and have fun. I will do ALL the rest!

Melissa is so creative and talented with a camera - she was able to compose beautiful shots that felt natural and unposed. Her flexibility was also greatly appreciated.

Hey there- I'm Joanna, but feel free to call me Jo! My world has always been filled with photography- through all the years and different cameras, it's always been my biggest passion and love. I am a travel enthusiast and I will always be down to hike up a mountain or explore a new city. My favorite meals are anything that include coffee or sushi and I am a firm believer that there is no such thing as "too much chocolate." Most importantly, I am a lover of all love and will never get tired of documenting it.

My husband and I decided to elope to NYC from Scotland in 2022. Jo linked us to her Instagram profile following a post on a Facebook group and we instantly fell in love with her whole vibe. Her work stunning. We set up a video call to discuss what we wanted from the photos from our special day - Jo just got it and got us almost instantly. She knew NYC and where to get our pictures done but also allowed us to collaborate and explore on the day. Jo is passionate about her profession and passionate about giving you the best possible experience, flowing with love and positivity throughout. It’s super relaxed and fun. I wish she lived closer - she would absolutely be our go to for all our big life events! We wish we had been able to get Jo to do some of her film shots as well as they are absolutely STUNNING! She was able to get our sneak peak pictures to us quickly and wanted to absolutely nail it for the rest of the gallery and boy did she nail it. We genuinely could not imagine our wedding day without her capturing it for us 3

Hi! It's so nice to meet you! I live in Oregon with my husband and our two cats Clara & Leonardo. We love exploring the Pacific Northwest, but we've also been able to travel throughout the states and overseas.

At the start of my photographer search, I chatted with several different companies to ask my questions. Naomi blew everyone else out of the water and I just clicked with her right away. And it only got better as the journey kept going. She stayed in touch as it got closer to our event date, she offered suggestions, and made sure I didn't need any additional help on the coordination side of things. Now... let's get to the best part, the photo shoot!! OH MY LAWDDDD the pictures came out more dreamy than I could have ever imagined. She has such a great eye for what a good shot will be, isn't afraid to get down and dirty (and maybe accidentally end up in a creek to get the shot), and knows the poses that, to you feel weird, but to the camera, look gorgeous!! Our photos look like they belong in a magazine. She is so talented!!! There's so much more I could say, and I feel like what I have said still just doesn't do her justice. She's the best. Don't go with anyone else!!

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.

I have had Kaitlyn as a photographer for 5 years now. She’s photographed everything for me. Family photos, engagement photos, wedding photos, maternity photos, newborn pictures, professional headshots, and boudoir. They all come out amazing and she is so good at making my family smile in front of the camera. She’s phenomenal at capturing the special moments too!

Ashly is not only the kindest human, but also one of the most creative and well-sought-after photographers I’ve had the opportunity of working with. My husband and I used to model for photographers and had to have worked with close to a dozen who specialize in couples, engagement, and weddings. Ashly is who we found to have the most intimate, eye-catching work with the most naturally beautiful looking editing style. SHE is who we chose as our wedding photographer. That was almost 3 years ago and to this day, we’d pick her over and over again. So much so, that when we moved out of state, we flew her across the country so we could take family photos with her after we had our daughter. I will forever recommend her to anyone who needs a photographer and forever be grateful to her for capturing my life memories in such a beautiful manner so I can cherish them forever.

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!

Loved working with Dasha. She was extremely organized and prepared. We met over zoom first to discuss her process and she oriented me well to expectations, she helped me think through the days plan. On the day of she was prompt, flexible, positive. I had a DIY style wedding and there were a lot of moving pieces but Dasha kept up and was so sweet along the way. My fiancé was not super into pictures ever, but she helped us through his awkwardness with it and the pictures looked amazing. I’m so happy with the final pictures I could not recommend her more. Dasha is a consummate professional. I highly, highly recommend her. In a sea of what was many little fires on my wedding day I was able to rely on her. Now that the wedding is done I’m very grateful for the beautiful photos.

For as long as I can remember I have always loved to create. My passion for photography started when I was a teen. As I honed in on my craft I began to photograph on a more professional level right out of high school, but stepped away for academic pursuits. After completing both a bachelors and master's degree in Anthropology, I came full circle, determining that a career in doing something creative was where my heart lies. Whether it is your wedding, or any other special moment in your life, I cherish the opportunity to document it in a way that highlights the artistic elements, while still capturing an authenticness that is uniquely you.

I bought my first DSLR camera in 2004 when my now wife, Tracey, and I were taking a cruise to Alaska. For a monumental trip like this, I HAD to get an amazing camera. Those 8.2 megapixels with nine four points had me in LOVE. Ever since then, the ability of a photograph to be able to freeze time; freeze an emotion; freeze a memory has kept me addicted. Whether it’s getting a great angle, finding light that tells the story, or capturing the true personality of someone; it all brings a smile to my face and hopefully yours!

Awarded Best of Zola
Chris made the entire process so easy for us. We are not big on posing for pictures, we both would much rather enjoy the moment and be with people we love and from the very beginning Chris was great at helping us to achieve this. We officially met Chris about a year out from our wedding at our engagement session and we had the best time and the pictures were incredible. He guided us through the next steps with the wedding and prepped us for everything. I am not much of a planner so this was so appreciated. Our wedding day went so so smoothly and the pictures just helped recapture the love and fun we felt that day. We couldn't be more grateful to him for catching all of these moments so we can feel the same way we did on our wedding day everytime we look at them.

Ever since I have had photography in my life I have always wanted to capture all types of love people share with each other, no matter who they are, who they love, or where they’re from. To be able to share stories through photos has always been a passion of mine and I hope to continue on this path indefinitely.

Desirae Jean Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Desirae's communication was easy, thorough, timely, and effective throughout the entire process, ensuring we were always on the same page. The quality of her work and overall value was truly amazing - her creativity and eye for capturing fun, emotional moments really shone through and contributed so much to our special day. She was extremely helpful, thoughtful, easy going and flexible in making sure we got all the photos we wanted.

Caroline Giuliano Photography

I'm a Boston based weddings & elopement photojournalist serving New England & beyond. My style is authentic, nostalgic, and a calculated blend of soft and romantic + moody and edgy. I think minimalism is lazy and I want you to look at my work and feel something. My goal is to make you feel so present that you forget I have a camera in my hand while I’m photographing you. I believe it’s my job to remind you of how beautiful and fleeting life is. My hope is that after our session is over, my work turns into some of your most cherished memories decorating your home and your hearts.

Prose Florals was sooo lucky to have worked weddings with Caroline. Not only is she the sweetest, her work is just incredible. She captured our florals for a wedding at the Rockfor Art Museum in September of 2022 and we still can't stop looking at them. From her photos we have gotten SOOO many compliments on the floral work we did for the wedding. Her talent is unmatched.

Welcome to our creative world! We are David and Katie, a photo and video dynamic duo from the peach state. But, we are more than just visual storytellers. We want to get to know you and build a friendship that extends beyond our lens. Our goal is to capture genuine memories that you'll cherish for years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
I looked through several different groups when attempting to find the best photographer for our wedding and Hevesi Journal made it easy to choose them. We mainly interacted with Katie, who was professional and calming and funny throughout every encounter. We did our engagement photos with her as well as our wedding photos and both sets turned out better than I could have imagined. Getting photographs that really showed the essence of us as a couple was one of the more important things we had hoped for when planning the wedding and this goal was certainly achieved. For our engagement photos, Katie followed us up a mountain and during the wedding she made sure that all of our desired groupings (for example, my father and his siblings) were captured with ease. I would 100% use their services again and if I have anything that needs documenting in the future will not be hesitating to reach out.

We are so incredibly grateful to have had Katelyn as our wedding photographer. Not only is she an extremely talented and professional photographer, she is an amazing human being that was so comforting to have throughout the wedding planning process and on the day of. She is simultaneously playful, flexible, and organic as well as organized and methodical throughout her photoshoots and has taken the best, most extensive set of photos of us as a couple to capture such an awesome moment in time. We had a wedding ceremony and reception with a ton of things going on and huge shot list that Katelyn executed flawlessly and went above and beyond to fully document our big day.

I hired Cruzio Photography for my wedding and was so thankful that they were so flexible and calming throughout the day. Needless to say my day didn't go as planned (Brides-if you know, you know!) but they were so flexible and direct with me, so I didn't worry that I wasn't going to get the shots I wanted. I'm a huge photo person and they understood the assignment!! Thank you Victoria and Cristian!

Harrison Boyd Photography

  • Serves El Portal, CA for additional fees

I have been professionally capturing images for over 10 years. During that time, I built a successful promotional marketing company in Canada, received my MBA in Ireland, and moved to the San Francisco Bay Area with my wife. My favorite part about photography are the stories that are captured, the frozen moments in time that each picture highlights. Over the course of my career, I have been asked to tell thousands of stories. With the ability to operate in the United States, Canada, and Europe, I’m no stranger to traveling for a good story.

Harrison surpassed our expectations with his close attention to detail, capturing every moment beautifully. We're a slightly awkward couple, but he was professional and made us very comfortable taking our formals after the ceremony. Highly reccommend for those in search of a very talented photographer who is great with people.

Hi! We are Jonathan & Emma Cunanan. Our whole story is centered on spontaneity & romance. We met, became best friends, & within a month we fell in love & by that October we were married. We are in love with love, & our business is founded upon that- making sure your day is celebrated with joy & completeness. We want to capture your moment right where you want it so you never have to forget what a moment felt like. Weddings are a core memory, & you should never have to compromise exquisite memories.

I am so happy we used this wonderful and talented team to take photos for our 15th wedding anniversary. We did not have real wedding photos, and I've always dreamed of having a picture-perfect portrait of my husband and I to put on the wall. The Cunanans directed our poses, used different angles, and got so many wonderful shots. I'm so pleased!
