Gleimlight Photography & Productions 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Encinitas, CA

After 10 years of marriage, the memories from our special day have slowly faded. With weddings going by in a flash, it's nearly impossible to commit it all to memory and with time, it will fade. The work we do, the memories we capture will last you a lifetime. We know that decades from now you will be flipping through your photo album or watching your wedding video; overflowing with love and joy. Knowing this is what motivates us!

Awarded Best of Zola
We came across Gleimlight Photography during our wedding planning last year, and fell in love with their work. My now husband used to own his own production company and is big into film and photography, so, he had incredibly high standards and I was so excited we had found a photographer that met and exceeded our expectations! Working with Christina and Jake was effortless. 2020 was definitely a challenging year, and planning a wedding amongst the chaos was even more challenging, but, they went with the flow of our constantly changing plans (like changing up until the week of), and made what was an extremely stressful time in our lives that much easier. We're both camera shy, and they just made it easy and comfortable, and man oh man, our photos are breathtaking. Thank you, Christina and Jake, for sticking with us and your patience, for your professionalism, your can-do attitude, and for giving us such an amazing gift with our photos. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out! It wasn't the wedding we originally planned, but, it was a beautiful day and we're so grateful you were there to capture it for us. xoxo H&C

We are excellent and experienced photographer and videographer for weddings and engagements. I have been a lifetime photography hobbyist since I was a teenager.

I am using a top-notch full frame Nikon DSLR camera with top notch Nikon lenses. I also have a Sony 4K camcorder that can record excellent 4K videos. Therefore, we can be your excellent videographer too for your wedding or party.

I cannot recommend Wellington and his videographer from Artistic Pro Photography enough! They had worked with us as a DJ for a wedding and a party. They were very friendly with us and helped us on moving our equipment. I saw their photos and videos from the wedding gallery and they are very good. The bride and groom are very happy with their works. We would love to work with them again or give them referrals.

I'm Erin. I'm a photographer, traveler, and wide-eyed wonderer. I split my time between the Midwest and my bungalow near the beach in Oceanside, CA. My favorite pastimes include exploring Disneyland, watching Schitts Creek & Ted Lasso, and cuddling my dog. I have a loud laugh. I love cabernet franc, chocolate chip cookies, and I'm on a constant search for the best tacos in the world.

Erin is an incredibly warm person and immediately made us feel comfortable during our engagement shoot. We had never done a shoot like this and were nervous and worried about feeling awkward, but her easygoing demeanor and natural instructions took all the stress off of us and we really enjoyed the experience. Erin has a detailed eye and a talent for capturing the natural beauty of the outdoors which was important to us. After our first great experience, we asked her to shoot our wedding as well on a cliff overlooking Sedona, AZ. She captured the scenery and golden hour lighting in breathtaking shots that were flattering of us and perfectly captured the grandeur of the red rocks around us. We will treasure the photos forever. Thank you Erin!

TOMORROW ISN’T PROMISED TO ANYONE, SO IT’S UP TO YOU TO DOCUMENT YOUR TODAY. YOUR RIGHT NOW. YOUR LIFE. Everybody has a story and I’m fascinated to learn yours. I come from a close knit family of 7, grew up in Sacramento, CA, and now have a super supportive husband while raising 2 fun, spunky children in San Diego, CA that mean the world to me. I believe that FAMILY IS EVERYTHING. I promise to capture the details, but most importantly, the people and moments that surround you on your wedding day.

We loved working with Sandra during the entire wedding process! I was stressed finding the perfect photographer, and she was so responsive to my first inquiry, hopped on the phone, and immediately gave me such great vibes. She's sweet, understanding, gave me a lot of peace of mind, and stood out among other photographers I spoke with at a similar price range (not to mention very experienced and a pro at what she does!). While I didn't book an engagement session, we met in person before our wedding and she was so fun to hang out with, listened to my concerns without judgment, and was so comforting! She was calm and orderly and kept to schedule on our wedding day, was so kind to our guests, and got all of our photos without putting too much pressure on us or taking us away from the event. I don't love taking photos, and she made me feel so beautiful, confident, and natural on the day. We absolutely love our photos, and am so happy to have worked with Sandra!!

Hello lovely! Let me introduce myself—I’m Sarah. Welcome to my little creative space—I hope you love it here & make yourself at home. My goal as your photographer is to put you at ease and therefore be able to capture your moments authentically and beautifully. As a film and digital photographer ("hybrid" if you will!), I take a big step back to capture your memories with intention, love, and honesty - my promise to you, is to treat your day as if it were my own. Film is my favorite medium to capture wedding days on, as I feel it brings back a level of authenticity, imperfection, and refined elegance that is irreplaceable.

So so so highly recommended Fox & Fig Photography! Sarah was very professional and diligent throughout every step of the process. She constantly went above and beyond with all of our questions and wedding day needs. She assisted every step of the way! There is not a moment of our day that wasn’t captured. Her work is beyond stunning and we’ll continue to book with her for all of our future life milestones!

Roberta Nicole Photography

Luxury wedding photography in California and worldwide... You want your photos to be as unique as you are. You want photos that capture the intimacy and emotion of your day. I have spent the past decade developing my approach to wedding photography, learning how to be unobtrusive, when to take the lead, and when to take step back and anticipate the moment. The resulting experience is one that allows you to be in the moment. The resulting images are authentic, beautiful and timeless.

Awarded Best of Zola
Roberta is AMAZING! Our wedding venue includes the photographer in the package, so we reached out to her to see if she could do our engagement photos, without a wedding package. She was so flexible, able to meet us at our chosen location and even let us reschedule last minute because of rain. She made us feel so relaxed even though it can be awkward acting couple-y in public in front of a camera. Our photos turned out perfectly, really capturing our love for each other. I am particularly impressed with her use of lighting and ability to capture the movement of my hair. I would highly recommend her for your big day or other photo needs! Update: Because of COVID, we chose to host a small, intimate wedding rather than working with our original venue. We loved Roberta's work for our engagement photos and asked her to photograph our mini-wedding as well. She helped us work out a timeline that made sense for such a small ceremony and captured our special day beautifully.

Cassy Velazquez Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Encinitas, CA

I have always loved story-telling. I loved writing stories as a kid (I even tried to get a book published at age 12) and I love writing my own D&D campaigns now. Through storytelling, I see the paths laid ahead for our heroes, and beautiful adventures that need to be documented. Through storytelling, I started to see the pictures. And from these pictures, I began to photograph. I am crazy passionate about your day. I want to help you capture those moments. I want you to have the most amazing time, and the happiest memories. I want you to have photos so good that you can’t wait to show it off to the people you know, and even those you don’t.

My Husband and I were scrolling through Instagram to find our wedding photographer and came across one of Cassy’s posts. We immediately fell in love with her photography style and aesthetic. We reached out to her for our engagement session and it was absolutely wonderful. To start off, I will give HUGE kudos to Cassy for getting onto a Ferris wheel to take our engagement pictures. We later found out she was afraid of heights. This will just prove my point that Cassy will go the extra mile & what she does for her clients. During the engagement session, she helped my husband and I feel comfortable as she took our photos and once we received our photos we were so thrilled at how amazing they came out. We knew right then and there we had to secure her for our wedding date. My husband and I had never planned a wedding, & we were also looking for a videographer and had no luck in our search. I reached out to Cassy for any referrals or previous videographers she recommended. She asked us what we were looking for and what our budget was and gave us a list of videographers. We found our videographer through her and we are thankful to her because they were exactly what we were looking for. A few weeks before my wedding, I had to find a new makeup artist and Cassy came through again! She gave me a list of makeup artists and helped me find a MUA for my wedding day. Fast forward to our wedding day, Cassy & her team got there early to set up and first things first, they congratulated me. As a bride on your wedding day, it can be wonderful moment but it can also feel a tiny bit Overwhelming , like you have no control of what happens at that moment. BUT, I felt so calmed and reassured as soon as I saw her. It really helped knowing a professional familiar face on my wedding day. Having her as our photographer during our engagement and my family photography session, prepared myself what to expect on our wedding day. She made me feel assured & calm and kept us ON TIME to our wedding timeline. Cassy & her team went above and beyond to capture all of our important moments and asked for any last minute details we wanted to make sure we got photos off. My favorite part during the wedding was that Cassy was not shy to interrupt to keep us on track with our wedding timeline. And you need someone to make sure you are on track so you can get to all of your activities and make sure your photographer captures all the moments that you have planned for. Cassy worked so well with all other vendors and was professional. Cassy was responsive and on time with the delivery of our photo galleries and we loved them all. My husband and I cried all over again. Cassy was the BEST, ABSOLUTE BEST.

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.

Ashley is one of the kindest, most compassionate people I’ve met. Working with her is more than just a client service provider relationship. She genuinely cares about the role that she’s stepping into for whatever event you’re asking her to photograph. You can tell when you are looking to work with someone what their true intentions are, whether it’s just a job , a check, Or something to boost their business versus somebody who is genuinely honored to be a part of capturing one of the biggest moments of your life. If you are looking for genuine connection and somebody who wants to celebrate your successes just as much as you are, Ashley is the photographer for you! 11/10

Hi and welcome! I'm Madeleine and am so glad that you've connected with my work. I focus on bringing you a fun, relaxed photography experience so that you can keep your attention on what's most important... enjoying the celebration with each other and your closest loved ones! You will always be treated like a friend and a client, meaning I will be your partner throughout your entire wedding experience. I strive to create a fun, laid back environment that will help produce the most authentic photos for your Southern California or destination wedding. I'd love to hear more about you, your partner, and your vision, so feel free to get in touch!

Words truly cannot capture how much we love Madeleine. From our very first interaction, it was clear we had found someone special to document our day. Madeleine's talent and passion shone through every moment we spent with her, and we couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our wedding. She expertly corralled our enormous family, ensuring everyone was in the right place at the right time, all while keeping us on schedule. In the midst of the whirlwind, she made us feel so beautiful and comfortable, even as we were being pulled in various directions. Her ability to blend professionalism with a warm, friendly demeanor kept us laughing throughout the day, easing any feelings of being overwhelmed. The photos she captured are pure magic. Each image tells a story, beautifully preserving the joy and love of our wedding day. Madeleine’s photos exude the exact emotions we felt throughout our day and I know we will cherish them forever. One of the hardest parts of the wedding being over is the realization that we won’t get to see Madeleine again. It feels like we gained a true friend throughout this process, and we now know exactly who to call to capture all of life's big events in the future. Thank you, Madeleine, for your incredible work and for making our day unforgettable! We love you so much!

Real Connections. Raw Emotions. Candid Moments. 

 These are the values behind what we do. These three words are the heart and soul of our work and everything we do is based around adventure and authenticity. When you hire us, you are hiring photographers who truly care about the experience you will have on your day. We don’t mind getting a little dirty or wet. We don’t mind staying until after dark to get the perfect shot. We don’t mind the hikes, or the time in-between each event. We are truly there for you and to tell the story of your day exactly as it happens

We are absolutely thrilled with our decision to book Candance as our wedding photographer. Initially, we almost missed the chance to work with her, but after an unexpected cancellation with our previous photographer, we reached out to Candance. She graciously adjusted her schedule and was able to accommodate our engagement shoot within a week of our request. Working with Candance and her husband Corey was an absolute delight. Candance is incredibly sweet, professional, and brought a wealth of creative ideas for poses and backgrounds. Her calming presence was a blessing on our busy wedding day. The photos we’ve received so far are some of our all-time favorites. Candance was, without a doubt, the best vendor we worked with throughout our wedding planning process. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a photographer. You will not regret booking her!
