Meet Ellen, a Southern California native and seasoned visual storyteller: I've been photographing events and portraiture since 2017 and specialize in destination weddings and elopements. For me, the best part about being a photographer is getting to witness my client’s once in a lifetime memories being created and knowing that my work will allow future generations to experience those memories as well. I take on all types of creative photo shoots when I'm not shooting weddings.

This is who we are. Alan and Sandy Bueno. We are a husband and wife team specializing in comprehensive photography and videography services, possessing over eight years of expertise n the wedding industry. We share our lives with our four children, of whom we are very proud of. We would love the opportunity to schedule a meeting with you to discuss booking your special day.

Buenofamily Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. Their communication was precise, clear, and timely, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was simply stunning, with photos that were both precise and fun. Sandy, Allan, and Angel were incredibly patient with me, as I'm quite shy with attention, and they made sure to incorporate my children into the photos and videos. I appreciated their attention to detail and their warm, loving presence, which provided a calm and nurturing environment on an otherwise busy and stressful day. The final photos were absolutely stunning, and we are thrilled with the beautiful memories they captured for us.

Malorie K Photography was a wonderful choice for our wedding photographer. She was kind and responsive, and so sweet to work with throughout the entire process. Receptive to our suggestions, the pictures she captured are truly amazing - so professional and high-quality. Multiple guests commented on how great Malorie was, describing her as the "small ninja with the camera" because she was everywhere but also not in anyone's way of seeing our big day. We are so grateful to have had Malorie there to beautifully document our special day.

Hey there! I'm Madison- a seasoned elopement and micro wedding photographer based in sunny Southern California. Since 2017, I've been on a mission to capture life's most precious moments through my lens. My photography style? Think sweet, golden, and bright – a reflection of the radiant energy of California living.

Awarded Best of Zola
From our very first interaction with Sweet M Photography, we were impressed by her friendly, communicative, and detailed approach. I loved the different elopement packages she offered which made it really easy to pick the best fit for our day. Madison is incredibly knowledgeable, and her work is truly impressive. As a couple who's not used to being in front of the camera, she did an amazing job coaching us through different shots and helping us feel relaxed and natural. Honestly we would have been happy with 1 or 2 great photos, but with Madison they were all great. She also had them turned around to us in a week which was so nice to be able to see them while on our honeymoon. Can't recommend enough!

Hello! I’m Savannah, the photographer behind Savannah Rose Photography. Like so many, photography started out as a fun hobby, and I have been fortunate enough to be able to make it my career. For the past 10 years I have been able to use my passion for art and photography to help my clients create uniquely beautiful memories that they will enjoy for years to come. I am definitely guilty of being a bit of a perfectionist which ensures that I do everything I can to give you the best photography experience, whether it be portrait session or on your wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Savannah captured my surprise engagement photos and I couldn't have been more happy with how they turned out. She went above and beyond the entire time and even took time before our shoot to scout out different locations that she thought would work well so we could use all of our time we had with her more efficiently. She also thought of everything and got my fiancé and I a picnic to enjoy as she knew we might be hungry during out shoot and we even utilized that to get some fun photos that are now some of my favorites. She made us feel so comfortable during our time and we loved working with her. Also, she took so many photos and got them back to us insanely quick. She was so amazing that I will be trying to come up with reason to use her again in the future.

Your photos should do more than simply capture a moment. They should spark memories of how it felt. The laughter, the tears, the warmth of a shared embrace, and the electric energy of moments too extraordinary to put into words. Years from now, I want you to hold these images and be transported back: to the sound of joy, the glow of love, and the memories you never want to fade.

Where do I even start!! Rachael was absolutely amazing to work with! We had the pleasure of taking our first family photos with Rachael Hulse Photography & we couldn't be happier! Having a 5&1/2 month old, we were very nervous to see how it would go, but Rachael went above and beyond to make it such a memorable and fun experience for us. She worked amazing with our baby girl & even sang along with us to "twinkle twinkle little star" to get her playful and smiling! Photos can always feel a little nerve wracking, but Rachael eased our minds right away with how calm and professional she was. She put us into so many great poses and we are obsessed with every photo she delivered. I highly recommend her & we already can't wait to book with her again! Thank you so much Rachael!

I started my photography business in August of 2010 after our daughter was born. I enjoy the beauty of capturing and telling peoples stories. I still remember being terrified to capture my very first when without my mentors, I didn't want to miss anything. After more than 200 weddings I can say I am completely in love with capturing and telling wedding stories.

Kirstin and I have worked together since 2014. Her passion for this business radiated like the sun on a clear day. Not only is she absolutely in love with this industry, she knows how to bring out the best of all her couples. Not only will you be comfortable infront of her camera all day on your wedding day, you will feel beautiful and confident knowing that Kirstin is going to make your photos look incredible. I can remember her telling me stories upon stories of her showing sneak peaks and the bride shedding tears of joy and happiness. If you want someone on your team that will tell the story of your day through the lense, Kirstin is the perfect person for you. If you're reading this that already means you love her work so just stop wasting time and book her today!

I’m the girl who faces into the cool breeze and lets the sunlight hit her cheeks. I’m the friend who gets the late night texts asking for valuable, heartfelt opinions. Those late evening drives in the jeep with the windows rolled down and the country songs turned up… that’s me ya’ll that’s me! There’s nothing quite like authenticity, love, and vulnerability. That is exactly what I see and what I capture when I get behind my camera and face it out into our beautiful world. Let’s be unapologetically ourselves and get out in nature, in the golden light and be willing to adventure. Are you ready? I am.

Amber and Billy are a dream to work with! They captured every detail beautifully and thoughtfully. Supremely professional demeanor and top notch photos. The photo viewing portal is easy to interact with, too. I couldn't be more pleased with them and their work.

If I’m not busy photographing people, tending to my two fur children, studying medicine, or being a firewife, you can catch me on the couch with snacks and Grey’s Anatomy or out adventuring with my husband. What I love about my job is being a part of someones most special moments of their life. How cool is it that I get to help plan a surprise proposal?! Or witnessing two lovers enjoy time together? How about a pregnancy announcement?! I love every second of being a part of something so much bigger than myself.
