  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Half Moon Bay, CA

Hi! Thanks for stopping by my page! My name is Richa and photography has been a lifelong passion of mine! My most favorite part about it is capturing the little moments that seem so small, but one day you look back and realize they were the big ones! I love happiness. I love laughter. But most of all, I love LOVE!! I feel so privileged to be able to capture YOUR love.

Richa and I worked together through wedding photography. She is an amazingly talented photographer and has an incredible eye for details and capturing emotion in her photos. She knew when to take charge and when to step back to blend into the day. She is very easy going, creative with her shots, and an amazing person to be around on a hectic wedding day. I highly recommend her as your wedding photographer!

Kristen photographed my wedding in Sonoma and she did an AMAZING job! She was quick to answer my 100 questions before the wedding and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera(my husband and I are so awkward taking pictures) but she made it so fun! On top of taking amazing pictures, she had our pictures back to us in 3 weeks! I love her!

Awarded Best of Zola
We did a lot of research before selecting our photographer, and Jody met every requirement we came up with. She understood our vision, and captured the spirit of each moment perfectly. She was fun and relaxed, and blended into the mix of people so that we really didn't notice having our picture taken constantly. Every single shot was included in our package, so we could immediately upload our favorites to share with friends and family. She also gave us gifts (I won't spoil the surprise and say what) that allowed us to have beautiful hard copies of some of the best shots before we make up our minds (which is going to take a long time). Highly recommend. ~ Two Happy Brides

Taylor Dewey Photo 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Half Moon Bay, CA

I am a lover of love and adventure. I am a pretty down person (I free dive with sharks so if that doesn't say something...) I moved to Hawaii in 4 hours notice and quit my corporate job to chase my dreams and here I am! I'm a bit of a minimalist like to think I'm pretty fun. I'm an ocean conservationist and use my skills to also educate people about human impacts and ways to make shifts in our own lives in order to help the planet. I am really big on quality over quantity. I would rather deliver a handful of WOW photos over a ton of average photos to fill a number.

Taylor was such a phenomenal part of our special micro-wedding! She really listened to our requests and made sure we took everyone photo we were hoping for! On another note, with our wedding being a destination I was unable to meet with Taylor before our wedding and I never once felt uncomfortable during the process. She made sure we discussed all the details and ensured me she would be able to deliver what we were dreaming of. I would highly recommend using her services even if you are dreaming of a destination wedding! We highly recommend using Taylor as your wedding photographer (you wont regret it)!

Elmwood and Tessa did our wedding photography in South Lake Tahoe and was great to work with. She did a wonderful job in capturing so many of our special moments and also being efficient with our time in between the ceremony and reception. She was so kind to hang a little longer than we booked her for as she was getting so many fun shots. Thank you for helping make our day so special, Tessa! Would highly recommend to anyone!

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Half Moon Bay, CA

Hi, I'm Jimmy! I am originally from Southern California and have grown my busines service area to Utah and Internationally over the last 15 years. I am a people person, and enjoy working closely with couples, and capturing the essence of who they are. When it comes to photographing a couple, I look past the outward appearance for the love and emotion that drives them. The personalities that are distinct to each couple make every session new and unique. I strive to create a fun and spontaneous atmosphere and a collection of images that convey each moment, and every detail in an artistic and truthful manner.

I do not believe you will ever come across a negative review about Jimmy because legit he is so beyond wonderful at his job. We had Jimmy out to do our wedding right outside of Zion National Park. I was skeptical at first when he said I did not need a second photographer because legit everyone was pushing it with a wedding my size but he did not miss a thing. He was wonderful with communication before the day of, we had a scheduled phone call to discuss the details, and legit did not have to worry about a thing the day of my wedding. I am beyond obsessed with my photos, but like if you cruise his instagram, you will understand why! Totally worth the money and then some!

Kate Waterman Rose Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Half Moon Bay, CA

Wedding photography for unconventional people. At the core of my practice as a wedding photographer, I believe: - that if your wedding traditions are not authentic and meaningful to you, then you deserve the freedom to build new traditions. - that men, women, and people of all genders are beautiful and deserve to have that beauty celebrated. - that we are most beautiful when we love fully and without reserve. - that no wedding or elopement is too small to commemorate. - that photographs are the record of memory and of personal history. - that you deserve to remember this.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kate's an excellent photographer. She has a real knack for making her photos feel magical—something about how she works with light, how she's able to capture the glamorous side of everyone. She did a lovely job with our wedding photos, and was friendly and helpful through the whole process—I can't recommend her enough.

Jamie English Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Half Moon Bay, CA

Hi all! I'll be honest, I've never loved writing bios. I'd much rather start up an email or hop on the phone with you and get to know each other in a more personal way! But until then - my name is Jamie and I've been in love with photography most of my life now (over 20 years!) and in business photographing weddings, families, and non-profits for 7 years. I'm married to the sweetest man, spend my days playing with the cutest babe, and love to travel and spend time with family and friends any chance I get. Studying art inspires me, reading ignites my curiosity, and experiencing other cultures gives me life. I hope I can get to know you too!

We found Jamie by a sheer stroke of luck - referred through another wedding photographer whose prices were WAY (way way) beyond our budget. From our first communication it was apparent she’s such a genuine and loving person - in addition to being an incredible resource on all things wedding-planning related. We actually used Zola’s wedding registry based on her recommendation! At the last minute, we decided to scrap the wedding planning (deposits be darned) and elope instead. Rather than balking, Jamie jumped at the opportunity to shoot the elopement and even served as our witness! She spent all day with us and shot hundreds of beautiful, high quality photos which she delivered in just a few weeks time. Since then, we’ve had her shoot our engagement photos (after the elopement!), maternity photos and annual family photos. We even gifted our mom a photo session for her 50th birthday. Each experience with Jamie has been so special - she puts us right at ease and captures the intimate moments in between. We can not recommend her highly enough!
