Joshua Fernandez Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves El Toro, CA for additional fees

Hi. I’m Josh. Our work is based in Washington, DC and we’re happy to travel. The best photographs are simple, unobtrusive, and spontaneous. We’ve always sought to remember things exactly how they happened - how we felt. This is how authentic photography captivates us. The goal is to photograph your day as it unfolds naturally. Take a few moments to go through some words from past clients describing their experience with us. You’ll also find us on Google.

Josh is an incredible artist and a wonderful person. He did a perfect job for us at our wedding in April and delivered photos we’ll always treasure! Before the event, we had a great conversation discussing our vision and vibe, and he asked thoughtful questions to help us figure out details. He is so warm and inviting, we felt relaxed with him right away. On the day, he was an absolute delight. He gave helpful direction that never felt awkward (I hate getting my photo taken), and was everywhere throughout the venue documenting genuine moments with our loved ones. So many of our guests complimented Josh specifically when telling us about their experience at the wedding! We didn’t want to spend a ton of time taking photos on the day; we wanted to enjoy our party. Josh made this happen perfectly. We still got plenty of fabulous and complete family photos, but didn’t miss a minute of cocktail hour. And the final product he delivered is everything we wanted and more: beautiful real moments, classic but natural posed photos, and little touches of artistry that make the photos feel alive. I enthusiastically recommend Josh to all in need of a top notch photographer!

Justin Kunimoto Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves El Toro, CA for additional fees

First and foremost, congratulations! This is an exciting time! Before I begin with all the details, I would like to do away with the formalities and keep it light. Technically speaking, I’m a photographer, but honestly, since establishing my business in 2014, I would consider myself a teammate through this process. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know couples, their families, their stories, and at the end of the day, becoming a good friend. If this vibes with you, we are off to a good start :) Answering questions, transparency in communication, and prompt responses are important to me and I hope that everything I share resonates.

Justin was the first vendor that we booked for our wedding- before the venue, before anything else and it was probably the best decision that I made in the entirety of our wedding planning. Justin was such a pleasure to work with from the start and went above and beyond to make sure that my partner and I were comfortable in the run-up to the wedding and on our wedding day (which is saying a lot, because my partner hates taking/being in pictures). On the wedding day, Justin was even more incredible than I could have imagined. He made us both feel at ease the entire wedding, making us laugh and seamlessly capturing amazing pictures along the way. All night and since the wedding, we've had family and friends tell us how incredible Justin was- his easygoing, friendly demeanor made an already really special day even better and we are so grateful to have him as our photographer. The pictures he captured are stunning (no surprise given the work we'd seen of his before) but I was blown away by the candid moments he was able to capture that we will cherish forever. Again- I can't recommend Justin highly enough and will forever be grateful for both the way he was able to capture the best moments of such an important day and for him being such a wonderful person.

Welcome to Arie T. Photography, a black queer woman-owned and operated traveling portrait and wedding photography service based out of the Georgia and Michigan! I've had the honor of capturing all walks of life across the USA with hopes of taking it worldwide. I'm known for my use of natural light, and "unposed” stress-free approach when it comes to my clients. If you feel like you’re awkward in front of the camera, I’ll take that as a challenge to prove you wrong because I can be awkward too.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wedding day was exactly how I imagined it to be! Arie was on it the whole time, and I honestly didn’t even notice! She caught some great shots without being “in the way”. I worked with her for about a year, and she was ALWAYS available for questions anytime! We did a couple of zoom calls as well during the process. I felt so comfortable with her the entire day and as I said, she got so many shots I had no idea she was even there for! She was everything I wanted and more! She fit right in with my family as well! I highly recommend Arie for your wedding, if you are in the Midwest! I feel like we walked away as friends, and the pictures are stunning!

My partner and I hired Sean for our engagement photos and we were extremely impressed! He was super helpful in helping us pose and very skilled in the ways he used lighting to capture our best features. He captured really genuine moments with such skill. He also made sure the job was well done and he got all the photos that we could have wanted. We had a blast working with him! The photos are stunning and I genuinely can’t stop looking at them! My partner and I tend to feel awkward getting our picture taken but Sean created such a comfortable space for us. We would highly recommend booking Sean.

We had to find a new photographer within 4 weeks of our wedding and couldn't have found a better pair. Being a bride and groom from Michigan and having a destination wedding in the Smokies, they really came through. They listened to my expectations and what I wanted in my photos. Many compliments from guests on how my photos turned out. Was a great experience working with them.

Hello! I’m so excited for the chance to work with you. I’m a former teacher who has always had a passion for photography. I started working freelance in 2015 and did a lot of my first jobs in the music industry. I shot Warped Tour a few times and even had one of my promos featured by AP magazine. I quickly realized I loved working with couples the most, and now focus on couple and family portraits and weddings!

Thalia is amazing!! I met Thalia a few years back when she was my brother’s photographer for his wedding. I like Thalia energy and presents. Once I seen the wedding pictures…I knew who was going to be my photographer. My day was beautiful. Thalia captured the most special moments on my day. She went above and beyond! My bridal party and guest really enjoyed Thalia. My photos are unbelievable, they are stunning! I’m extremely happy that Thalia was our wedding photographer.

I have used many photographers in the past but none came close to the level of expertise that Leah possesses. Over the years, I've done business headshots with her, family photos, and most recently my wedding. Since I have used Leah's services for other things before, I knew what to expect as far as photo-quality goes; the real testimonial comes from how she handled the wedding. Shooting a wedding in another country with a chaotic family is no easy task, even I wouldn't wish it upon myself, but Leah truly knocked it out of the park: she checked in before the event day to go over the schedule, showed up early, got all of the extra shots that I requested, directed people, and just really took charge of the experience. Having her as my wedding photographer was literally one of the only non-stressful decisions I made for that event lol. The photos turned out beautifully, I really can't imagine having anyone else capture one of the most important events of my life. I recommend her wholeheartedly!!

Hi, I'm Ricky, owner and lead photographer. Wedding planning doesn't need to be stressful. And you don't have to do it alone. I GOT YOU! You want to enjoy your big day, so I make sure you have time for just the two of you alone and I try to get you back to your cocktail hour as soon as possible so you can enjoy your friends' company. More importantly, I promise through my mix of direction and “fly on the wall” style of photography, you will feel relaxed and excited in front of my lens. All I ask of my couples is to be open-minded, open-hearted, respectful, and unapologetically YOU!! Bottom line, be exactly who you are and I will do the rest.

We hired Ricky - Goodeye Photography - for both our engagement and wedding photos, and holy cow did he blow us away. Hiring him was easily the best decision we made. From start to finish, Ricky was an absolute joy to work with. His professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail made every minute of planning and shooting a wonderful experience. I originally found Ricky on Instagram (@goodeye.photography) and after a quick scroll through his page, I instantly knew he was who we needed. Every photo in his portfolio had emotion and love in them. After finding his Instagram page, I reached out and he very quickly responded with all necessary information. He communicated clearly and quickly throughout this entire process which was very appreciated! I plan events professionally and half the time it’s like pulling teeth to even get a response from someone. Never once did Ricky have a delayed response or leave us with more questions than answers. My husband is what we’d call “camera shy” and was pretty anxious leading up to our engagement shoot as this was his first time getting professional photos done. And while Ricky always behaves in a very professional manner, he also is extremely personable, friendly, and frankly just straight up funny. We instantly connected with him and he made my husband feel so much more relaxed - heck, my husband even had FUN during the shoot which I didn’t think possible haha. It goes without saying that the engagement photos were absolutely stunning… each one better than the last. As the big day drew nearer, Ricky met with us regularly and assisted us in our agenda, timeline, and all these other small details you don’t even think about. On the day of our wedding, Ricky and his team went above and beyond to capture every moment. He has an incredible eye for detail and was able to capture the essence of our day beautifully. (Petition for him to change his name from Good Eye Photography to Incredible Eye Photography ;) After the ceremony was over and it was time for my new husband and I to sneak off during cocktail hour to take our photos, a lovely wedding guest managed to spill red wine all down my white dress. Before I could even flinch, Ricky immediately jumped in and said “Don’t worry, I can edit out these red stains in all the pictures.” One of the BEST parts of working with Ricky is also his quick turnaround time. I wanna say it was like 5 days after the wedding and Ricky had already turned around a handful of “sneak peak” photos - which is quite impressive considering how many other weddings he had booked after ours. And to no ones surprise - there wasn’t a hint of red wine stains in any of the pictures ) Our wedding photos are more than what we could have ever hoped for. I may be biased, but truly some of these pictures deserve to be hung in the Louvre. I cannot recommend Good Eye Photography enough (and on that note it’s worth mentioning that since our engagement photoshoot with Ricky, two of my other friends that were engaged have also hired him and his team for their weddings)! If you are looking for a talented and passionate photographer who will go the extra mile to make your special moments unforgettable and your planning process a breeze, then Ricky is the guy for you.

Raw By Laura

My name is Laura and I am bilingual (English/Spanish). I moved to Arizona in the beginning of 2022 from New Jersey. It has been bittersweet to redefine myself in a new state. One thing I absolutely refused to leave behind is my love for photography. I moved here with my husband for a change of speed. It has been such a beautiful change! Just like you, I too am in love with the views Arizona has to offer. I am a nontraditional wedding photographer, I am there for all the feels that come with your big day. The tears, the smiles, the laughs, the dancing... Moody, warm and candid photography. Photos to make you relive the moments later

Laura was amazing! From our first meeting we clicked really well. She was super easy to work with and handled the chaos throughout our wedding very well. We are absolutely obsessed with our photos and will be using her again for any of our future photography needs. She is extremely personable, well spoken, and understanding. Couldn't be more satisfied with our investment in her services.

Like most children in the late 90's and early 00's, I grew up with a camera in my hand. I went through polaroids, video cameras, disposable cameras, waterproof cameras, and film cameras; all the cameras! I was so fascinated by photography and the ability to preserve moments. I'm an ENFP, 7w6, and extroverted-introvert who is not only thrilled but humbled to be a witness and historian to the significant moments in your life we are able to share together!

Lindsey was fantastic to work with! She did our engagement photos as well as our wedding day. She is creative, talented, and her organization puts her at such a high level of professionalism. She followed through on all our wishes and captured our special day perfectly. Highly recommended!
