Anna is an incredible photographer! From our very first phone consultation to the big day, she made the whole process feel seamless and effortless. We had a very small, intimate wedding with immediate family but still found ourselves nervous about having everything come together. Anna eased our nerves when it came to the prep and logistics, secured the photography permit for our dream first look location, and graciously guided us through the day step by step. She helped my husband and I to feel more comfortable in front of the camera than I ever thought possible. When we received our gallery I could not stop looking through the photos! Every single one turned out beautifully with Anna’s creativity and attention to detail. We feel so fortunate to have worked with Anna and cannot recommend her enough! Thank you Anna for being so wonderful in every way and for all you do!

Mirage and Light Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Escondido, CA

Photography is my creative dream come true and it is so incredibly special to be able to capture memories that other people will love and cherish for many, many years. Around high school, I found out for myself how important these memories were. Not just the ones I was creating currently but the ones that I couldn’t get back. I would look back on these photos and think, "I remember how happy I was that day." "Aww, my little brother was so tiny then!" Or even, "What was I thinking when I wore that outfit??" These little snippets of time carried such a significance for me that I wanted other people to feel that way about their memories, too.

It was our pleasure to have Mirage and Light photograph our events. One of the things we look for as florists when someone photographs our work is how accurately a photographer may represent color. Since so many clients book us off of previous work, it is imperative to have this accuracy so we can convey to others what we mean when we give them a certain color palette. Amanda and her team did a beautiful job on this for us, and she gave our clients lovely, candid, and natural looking memories of their gorgeous day. Everything was done just as it should be, and I am honored to recommend them to any couple seeking beautiful photos for their day.

Hey there! We are Hellen + Rafael and we are the photographer and videographer behind the lens! We have been married for 5 years and we love doing life together! That is why we joined our forces 5 years ago to create Hellen Oliveira Photography. We have a passion for capturing your special moments and making them last a lifetime! We are in Atlanta, GA - but we love to travel and will go anywhere to tell a good love story! Get to know us better and say hi!

My mom made the initial contact with Hellen during the beginning stages of wedding planning. My fiancé and I live in another state,so we relied heavily on my mom’s investigation. In looking over Hellen’s work prior to meeting her, we were just in awe. Everything was so beautifully presented and so artfully edited. Her talent just left from the page. Tommy and i had an initial get to know you phone call, which was amazing. Hellen really took the time to learn about us, our personalities, and our wedding photo desires. She takes the relationship with her clients very seriously, which i later understood why this is so unique and important on your wedding day. We booked Hellen for every aspect of our wedding season- engagement photos all the way through the big day. Our wedding was an entire weekend; welcome party, rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception. We opted to book Hellen for the every event of the weekend along with here his and to do videography(a drone no less). These two are an amazing team. The love they have for each other and the passion they have for photography made our weekend perfect. Hellen listened to every thought I had with regards to photos I really wanted, she walked us through how everything would go, and was so patient with us every step of the way. Our wedding theme was a unique mixture of things we love with a lot of very intentional details, and Hellen captured every thoughtful aspect of our wedding theme beautifully. Tommy and I look forward to continuing our relationship with Hellen for all of the future events in our lives. MacKenzie Ewing (now Hutchins) June 2024 Bride, Atlanta Georgia

Working with J. Roman was a dream! We won an engagement shoot with J and quickly knew we wanted him as our wedding photographer after an engagement shoot that was so fun! He delivered hundreds of photos that we loved. His range is amazing; from moody and dark, to vintage and chic, to glam and bright, all the versions of photography you crave for your big day, J covers! We were open to J's eye when it came to moments and he worked seamlessly on our big day--him or his team never felt intrusive to a special moment. The raw emotion of the wedding day was captured so beautifully-we get to relive such a momentous day over and over through his art. He was incredibly professional, was very easy to work with and was so helpful in planning. J has delivered amazing results: 2500 photos for our wedding, which we received in exactly 3 weeks. We received the first short video within 4 weeks of the wedding as well for his photography and videography package. So grateful that we booked with J Roman and would recommend his over and over again!

I've been photographing weddings for over 10 years now and love it more than ever. What I love about photography and especially wedding photography is how I’m able to connect with myself and others. I believe that your soul knows when it’s onto something good. Brings a new meaning to the term “soulmate” doesn’t it? That’s why I’m so passionate about creating art with you and your loved ones in mind.

If you are looking for a wedding photographer your search is over! Alyssa was the best photographer we could have ever chosen for our wedding and I hope to have her take all of our future family photos. Alyssa did our engagement photos at Sauguaro Lake, a photo shoot with my Mom's wedding dress, our civil ceremony at the courthouse, and our wedding day in Puerto Vallarta. Every single photo she took turned out so beautiful, artistically telling the story in each event. I will especially forever cherish the polaroids she took. At the end of our wedding night we had a photo album capturing the the night, which was such a special touch! Her work is not only beautiful, her personality is too. We instantly connected and I felt like I had friend by my side at each photoshoot. She makes you feel so comfortable and helps direct you into the most flattering, natural poses.

We booked Amanda for our engagement photos. Our 2 dogs were part of the session and she is great at working with pets! We also booked her for our wedding photos and absolutely loved working with her. Amanda previously took my brother’s wedding photos and I particularly love how she is able to capture the emotions in each photo. My husband and I are both shy and awkward in front of the camera, but Amanda has the ability to put you at ease and she guides you in a way that makes you feel and look your best. I was nervous on the wedding day with everything going on and she really helped both of us relax with her calming presence. We had a small, intimate wedding with a little over 40 guests and I am so impressed with how Amanda captured beautiful moments from every angle, especially during our ceremony. I had no idea she was moving around everywhere until I saw the photos! If you are looking for a responsive, professional, and talented photographer, I highly recommend Amanda. We cannot thank her enough and will look back on these photographs fondly in years to come.

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.

Cassy has photographed our engagement, wedding, graduation and maternity photos. This review is long overdue. She’s so communicative and professional. She’ll make you feel comfortable right away and knows her stuff. She takes beautiful photos. You won’t regret going with her for your photos for any occasion.

Hi I’m Abby! been told all my life that I have an artistic flair and a gift for creativity, but that’s not the only reason why I started my career in wedding photography. I’m the biggest romantic and feel things deeply — in my photography there’s no detail in your connection that goes unnoticed. The little winks and smirks that silently set your soul on fire, the quirks that stay hidden to everybody else but you, and the parts of them that somehow make you fall in love with them even more… They’re how I tell stories because I know that in time, those are the things you’ll cherish the most.

Abby made our day unforgettable. She had this ease about her that calmed me throughout the day. Anything I wanted to make sure we included she made it happen - even the smallest detail that I had forgotten about she remembered. She drove me up a mountain for first look photos. That right there is dedication. Not only was she supportive as a professional, it was great to have her there as a friend. I would recommend this amazing photographer to anyone. The quality of her work shows through her photos and her work ethic. She had sneak peak photos emailed to me the literal next day. Abby is an absolute wonder, and I will forever be grateful she was there to capture the most perfect moments of the most beautiful day. Thank you, Abby!

I cannot recommend Emily enough! We found her a few months out from the wedding and did a call to talk about our budget and our vision for our wedding. Emily was so accommodating, shaping a photography and videography package that fit us perfectly! On our wedding day she was incredibly hard working and well prepared. She makes everyone she meets feel comfortable, confident and beautiful in their pictures! On top of honoring our "shot list" and getting all of my top priorities taken care of, Emily scoped out the venue and came up with fun locations and ideas that we hadn't considered! She also played with traditional photography, shooting on film, and polaroids all of which gave us unique looks that we love! If you're looking for a skilled, artistic, and friendly photographer, you've found her!

I’m Tiago, a 35mm film and digital photographer passionate about capturing the real, emotional moments of your wedding day. Born in Rio de Janeiro and now based in Las Vegas, NV, I travel everywhere to tell love stories through my lens. I’ve been lucky enough to photograph hundreds of weddings and have picked up a few international awards along the way. My style is a mix of cinematic, candid, and editorial – perfect for those who want their wedding photos to feel like a beautiful movie.

Awarded Best of Zola
Tiago is a fabulous photographer and person. We planned an elopement wedding in Vegas, and he met with us first to determine compatibility with his style. Then he helped set up a schedule that worked for what we wanted. On the day of the wedding, he picked us up from the hotel and drove us to the Little White Chapel, drove us to multiple locations for photographs and gave us a brief tour of the art district even, then at the end of the sessions, dropped us back off in Vegas at our hotel. This is far beyond what we expected of him. His photograph style is great. He gave us directions on posing for more dramatic effects and chose great locations with nice backdrops for the photos. When we finally received the photos we were blown away at the results. I have never seen such great wedding photography. They are more like art than the stilted photos I am used to seeing from weddings. He is a very fun and nice person to talk with, and we interacted a lot during the 4 hours we spent with him. I would book him again for a photo shoot (obviously not my wedding, but for some other type of photo needs like portraits and such). He's just great. He's an artist. He's a great human being. And he cares about the people he works with. Great experience.

Kaitlyn Carter Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From our first interaction, Kaitlyn was responsive, easy-going, but also very professional, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, her calm and friendly presence was so comforting, and she captured every moment beautifully - from the small, intimate details as we were getting ready to the larger, posed family shots. The quality of Kaitlyn's work is simply stunning, with a documentary-style approach and gorgeous natural lighting that perfectly encapsulated the passion and love of our special day. We are thrilled with the photos from our engagement session and wedding day and couldn't recommend Kaitlyn Carter Photography more highly.

Lulan Studio

  • Serves Escondido, CA

Lulan’s creativity has led to his path beyond most conventional definitions. He has won 25+ wedding photography awards, named the Best Wedding Photographer in Los Angeles; while acquired advance degree in immunology and medicine from UCLA.

We found Lulan Studios about nine months before our wedding day. We were immediately drawn in by their professionalism and their reputation. Lulan is an inclusive photographer who was very receptive to our wedding vision. He and his team were incredibly kind, supportive, and helpful all throughout the process. We elected to go with Lulan Wang himself for our photographer who worked with an associate. After our initial consultation we were turned over to Shannon who was our go to contact for day to day clarifications and vendor contact until Lulan took over just before the wedding. Shannon was immensely resourceful and responsive. She communicated with our coordinator very efficiently and was always on top of our booking. We are very grateful to her as well for making the process so easy and for continuing that communication after the fact. On the day, Lulan and his associate were spectacular. It was clear his associate had more than enough talent for the job just like Lulan, but they divided and concurred by using two different types of cameras for different types of shots. We regret not doing an engagement session with them, but we will likely return for an Anniversary session in the future. We didn’t even need one though, because he is skilled enough that he understood us as a couple immediately. They made us feel comfortable and confident. They hyped us up and moved through the shot list masterfully. Nothing was missed and we captured far more than we expected. Please look through our attached photos as they speak for themselves. One of the most exciting moments was when Lulan handed us a little blue book filled with about fifteen physically printed preview photos DURING THE RECEPTION. A lovely surprise that absolutely shocked me. Turnover was 4-6 weeks and we got ours just before the six week mark right on schedule. We were floored. They are jaw-dropping. We ultimately got 950 photos permanently digitally available for high resolution download and access to a shop with impressive options for prints and albums of a wide array of types and sizes. I’m thrilled to show them to you here and implore you to consider booking Lulan Studios. We trusted in their ability from the beginning and we were not disappointed. They are among if not the absolute best in the business.

Welcome. I'm D e r e c k. I've been doing photography and videography since 2017. It wasn't until the pandemic of last year that I decided to take a leap of faith and make it a full-time career. I feel like I've always had a burning passion for photography and editing, I love photography because it captures a moment in time. Whether that moment is your wedding day or an annual family portrait, pictures enable us to relive and remember special occasions again + again. Why I specifically dove into Wedding Photography? Simple!! My love for creativity and seeing passionate couples that aren't afraid to show their personalities

Dereck Davis Photography was a joy to work with for our wedding photography. Dereck has an incredibly friendly, welcoming, and fun communication style that put me at ease, as I'm usually shy and awkward posing for photos. His artistic eye and casual style resulted in gorgeous, natural-looking photos that perfectly captured the laidback vibe of our wedding day. Even during more orchestrated moments like the family portraits, Dereck kept things upbeat and moving smoothly. His easy-going manner encouraged everyone to relax and enjoy themselves rather than stress about getting the perfect shot. Our wedding photos are stunning yet look effortless due to Dereck's ability to work with the existing lighting and scenery. We felt like we were hanging out with a close friend rather than posing stiffly for a photographer. I wholeheartedly recommend Dereck for wedding photography - his beautiful, joyful images will help you remember the love and delight of your special day for years to come.

I moved around a lot growing up and I can remember not always loving it. But now, truly grateful for how it's shaped me. My husband was the exact opposite. He had a hometown, graduated high school with childhood friends, knowing every street, and watching every change. I think that is part of the reason we were attracted to each other. One yearning for roots, and the other for branches. Finding them within each other. Finding in each other a home and an adventure. It is hard to remember who I was before him, and hard to imagine my life without him. When I think of him... I smile, I cry, I laugh. This is what makes me feel alive.

Gabby is FANTASTIC! I cannot recommend her enough if you are looking for a photographer. My husband and I are introverted and not super comfortable in front of the camera but Gabby made it easy. The communication throughout the whole process was perfect. She checked in often enough to ease my anxiety, but not so much that it added extra stress through the wedding planning process. We had her do our engagement and wedding photos and she did an amazing job at capturing our love in a way that felt authentic to who we are as a couple. She truly listened to what we wanted. On the actual wedding day, she literally saved my life by sewing a button to my dress so that I could have a bustle for my train to make sure I enjoyed the dancing without tripping or ruining my dress. She was so much more than our photographer, she was our friend who looked out for us and supported us the entire day. You will not be disappointed if you choose Burlap and Blossom!
