Shine Photo Arizona , I was only 15 the first time I picked up a camera and started shooting just for fun. That was thirteen years ago and since then it's grown from my hobby, to my passion to my career. I opened Shine Photo in 2020 just before the pandemic and I haven't stopped shooting since.

Ashley is one of the best photographers out there! You can tell she puts a lot of time and effort into her craft. She went to multiple destinations for us and had the greatest photo ideas. Things I would've never thought of and they made the pictures turn out amazing. (Check out her website to see for yourself). She is so kind and a pleasure to work with. She made it very fun for us as well. Will definitely come back to her in the future!

Ashley Baye Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Idyllwild, CA

I love freezing wedding days. I stay true to color, but add in a little warmth. I love documenting the day and getting in all the emotions. My favorite part of the entire day- grooms reaction to either his bride walking down the aisle or that first look. I'm also a sucker for dad first looks. Details are also so important, it's one of the biggest day of your lives and getting it all photographed is so very important!

Ashley was pure joy to work with. She was professional and easy going while still making sure everything was orderly. My husband does not like his photo taken and he was relaxed and at ease the whole time. Our gallery came back so quickly and I still tear up at the quality of our photos! We are so thankful for her and all the beautiful memories she captured.

Tori Parker Photography 

5.0

  • Starts at $2,900
  • Serves Idyllwild, CA

Although Tori lives on the east coast, her art & lifestyle is largely inspired by the west coast. Tori grew up just outside Los Angeles and her art reflects the airy, relaxed and purposeful atmosphere that exists in the Golden State. The Tori Parker team intends for their photos to reflect a similar air: relaxed but with a powerful undertone of golden hour hues and genuine joy. When Tori isn't taking photos or managing her amazing team of associate photoghers, she enjoys intentional time with Jesus, watching New Girl with her husband, being outdoors with her dogs, and eating the spiciest thing on the menu.

Tori is beyond easy to work with, fun, personable, and professional. She made the time leading up to the wedding easy and chill, and was very helpful in figuring out the timeline of our day and all other details. She also got us 100 previews within days after our wedding!

Nick Cruz Photography, LLC 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Idyllwild, CA

My parents don’t have professional photos of their wedding. It’s ironic being that I photograph weddings for a living. Long story short, my Grandfather hired a distant cousin as their wedding photographer, his customer service was beyond subpar and pricing was vague. He eventually went out of business and apparently took the photos down with him. It’s a sad story but it is something that fuels my mission as a wedding photographer. To give my clients a memorable experience from the first Zoom meeting to the delivery of their gallery and beyond.

We highly recommend Nick for all of your photography needs. We had an intimate wedding on a friend's balcony, Nick did a great job of getting photos of everyone in the family in different settings throughout the day. He had great ideas and even had us walk down the street to an open lot and got some great outdoor/natural photos. The most special photos we have are the ones in which he truly captured the emotion of the moment, we will cherish them for our lifetime. Thanks Nick!!

Elyana Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,600
  • Serves Idyllwild, CA

I believe the best photos occur when... artistry and intentionality meet moments of heartfelt connection. I'll guide you towards the dreamiest light and offer unobtrusive direction that lends to natural movements and sincere emotion. I also slow things down and help re-center everyone, creating space for beautiful moments to unfold, like mom fluffing your veil, dad's expression when he sees you all dressed up, and fleeting looks between you and your partner.

I cannot recommend Elyana enough! I wanted dreamy photos that were candid-esque so I got really excited when I came across her website. I honestly had no idea what to expect when working with a professional photographer but her service was exceptional. She's super friendly, easy-going, efficient, and communicative. Everything went unbelievably smoothly. We had Elyana for 2 hours during our elopement and she made it so fun and easy to be in front of a camera. She provided a lot of much-needed direction and our session went by so quickly and smoothly. She even helped grab my veil when I forgot it in my suite! I'm not photogenic so I was nervous about looking like a total derp after many wonderful vendors had put so much work into my hair, makeup, dress, and florals... But her artistic sense and prompting really made for some amazing pictures. She works fast! Sneak peeks and full gallery were received well before their promise dates. Granted, it probably helped that we only had a 2 hour elopement session, but the speedy turnaround time is super appreciated nonetheless. The one struggle I have from working with her is trying to pick which beautiful images will be displayed in our home. Thank you so much for these photos that we will cherish forever!

Hi hi! My name is Nevaeh and I'm so honored that you have taken the time to look at my work! I am based out of both Joshua Tree, CA, and Albuquerque, NM. I am originally from New Mexico, but I moved to SoCal when I married my dreamy Marine. I have a cutesy pup names Rocky who is energetic and cuddly. I love watching Gilmore Girls and trips to the beach. I love Jesus and worship music is my jam (along with Disney music, Olivia Rodrigo, One Direction, and Shawn Mendes).

Nevaeh is not only an amazing photographer, but she’s an amazing person who is always smiling and working hard to capture the right moment. She photographed our wedding in 2020 (during Covid). It was a small outdoor wedding. She captured some amazing photos and always did so with a smile. She has so many great ideas and made it so easy to pose. She was great to work with and would recommend her to anyone in search of a photographer from family photos, senior photos to weddings. Nevaeh is your photographer!

De La Rosa Wedding Photography

MODERN ROMANCE DOCUMENTED EXCEPTIONALLY Named after my mother Ana Rosa, De La Rosa strives to help you slow down, be present and be yourselves on your wedding day. We believe being present on your wedding day will bring out the best in you and your partner. Giving an authentic and fun experience while having a timeless and editorial look.

Sebastian took our wedding photos and I'm in love with them! Me and my husband are not typically in front of a camera and unsure of how to pose, Sebastian helped us feel so so comfortable and gave us direction and different poses so there was more variety than just the one typical pose. He was so sweet and patient when it came to our families, he also speaks fluent Spanish and English which was perfect for our American/Peruvian wedding (my parents don't speak Spanish and my husband's parents don't speak English.) Not only was his personality off the charts, his photography skills were also outstanding. He caught the sweetest moments between my husband and I as well as with our families. He captured details of the wedding that I would probably forget if we didn't have pictures (table settings, my nails, decorations etc) and the quality was stunning. We couldn't be more grateful for Sebastian as a person and as a photographer, look no further cause he's the whole package!!

Vivian Chen Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Idyllwild, CA

My style is natural and photojournalistic. I love capturing unscripted moments because those are the type of photos that tell a richer story of your day. Working with me means nothing overly posed, nothing awkward, nothing that doesn't feel like YOU. While we'll spend some time doing portraits, my priority is for you to be present and enjoy your wedding day. I like to shoot discreetly with an emphasis on candids so from the moment you first see each other to that last hilarious toast, you’ll be relaxed and focused on one another and not even noticed I’m there.

My musical group, Bay Area Strings, has performed at several weddings and receptions where Vivian was the photographer. Her event work is unobtrusive, taking great photographs without anyone noticing! We have ended up using several of her candid photographs of our string players, as she has a great eye for composition and color, with a modern and artistic style that still focuses on personality of the subjects. I have also noticed that her turnaround time to provide high-quality photos to the client and vendors is very fast compared to many others we have worked with.

We were really happy to work with Norbert, he was always responsive, flexible and very attentive to our questions. He was very professional and friendly to us at all times. Plus, he gave us some great recommendations around the area that we hadn't even heard of! We have never really had pictures taken of us before in a romantic setting by a professional before, that alone was pretty intimidating for us. Norbert made the entire photo experience a lot less intimidating for us to go through, the pictures came out perfect in the end! Overall, we had a great experience and will definitely recommend him to anyone marrying in the future in need of a photographer.

Freshly landed from Paris, France. Christophe has been a travel photographer for the past ten years and decided to expand his creative horizons toward white dresses and bow ties here in California. His European touch will definitely bring something special to your wedding day.

Due to COVID, our wedding was postponed twice and ultimately cancelled. During each postponement, Willmus Weddings was still able to work with us. Ultimately the wedding was cancelled last minute due to the current restrictions and the fact that we were moving out of state in the next few months. The USS Midway was able to accommodate us to take the photos on the ship and even provided a beautiful intimate ceremony on the ship. Christophe and his videographer were there to capture this absolutely spectacular day. His professionalism along with his AMAZING talent could never go unnoticed. Thank you Christophe for helping create and capture the best memories and day of our lives! We are so grateful and thankful for you!!!

May Iosotaluno is a wedding photographer based in Los Angeles, CA specializing in candid, emotional photography. With experience in adventure elopements and intimate weddings, May Iosotaluno serves all of Southern California and beyond.

We are so lucky that May was available to capture us at the start of our life together. Because our civil ceremony started at 8am, May arrived at 7:30am with donuts and a smile. She’s incredibly thoughtful! I was a little nervous about coming off natural in pictures, but her gentle and sweet demeanor instantly put us at ease. Everything we did felt very natural to us and she captured everything we felt that day so perfectly. We love our pictures so much we can’t stop looking at them! We really couldn’t have asked for a better experience and can not recommend her enough!

Virginie's photos are absolutely outstanding. She has immense photographic talent AND she has a romantic and creative eye that results in breathtaking (and tear-jerking) images. But it doesn't end there! She is also a lovely person and dedicated and funny and professional and prompt and generous with her time and attention. She's almost too good to be true, but she really is all of those things and more. I would recommend her for any event and any client because she is an absolute pleasure to work with and her photographic excellence leaves you with a visual memory of your special day to last a lifetime.

I love the love!! I am a hopeful romantic! I channel that when shooting weddings, elopements and engagement shoots. I look for the small gestures between you two while you interact, the way you look at one another in utter comfort and confidence, the way you laugh and crack each other up! I love observing how couples embrace and find each other's nooks. This is your person, the one that you can be your complete self with, how cool is that! It sounds corny, but being a wedding and elopement photographer really is a privilege.

Melissa did an amazing job on our engagement and wedding photos! She is so talented at finding great shots, working with the lighting, and keeping things fun! She was extremely easy to work with, and so flexible when changes happened. She also made sure to check out locations in advance which helped a lot in saving time on the day. She is great at keeping timelines and fitting everything in... and made sure we got photos with everyone there. The pictures came out so beautiful!!! It’s absolutely worth hiring the right photographer because the day goes by so fast, but pictures last forever! We will cherish our wedding and engagement photos for years to come. Thanks for making it such a special and memorable time for us. We highly recommend Melissa!

Located in SF. As a Photographer; I'm a storyteller. My imagery captures a harmony of raw emotion, authentic evanescent moments, and curated artistry. I believe in camaraderie with my couples to create beautiful memories, love stories shared over wine & a fire-pit and giving back with each wedding I book. I champion for kindness and giving back. My couples echo this right back. They are stylish, authentic and plan amazing details but also know how to pop the champagne and head to the dance floor.

Awarded Best of Zola
It was my lucky day the day I met the Animus Art team at a bridal expo and won their free engagement photo shoot. When my (now) husband and I met with them over coffee (the way to their hearts, I found later) to talk about the shoot, I hadn't intended on choosing our wedding photographer then. We ended up loving their work so much...but more importantly, we fell in love with them as people. They have such a passion for what they do and for the people they work with, and it shows through in every conversation, every laugh, and every photo. My husband and I stayed after they left to discuss it, and we decided that day to choose them. We had lofty goals for our engagement shoot. We wanted to do a Pixar-inspired theme. I'm a perfectionist and had a vision of what I wanted. What we got was so much more. For our wedding photos...they captured moments I didn't know I needed. Some of my favorite shots are candid photos only their eyes would have seen. And once we found out we were pregnant, we immediately turned to them to not only help us capture the maternity and newborn moments, but the birth process as well. That's how close we've become with Pedro and Burcu...they were the only people we trusted to be in the room the moment our first child was born. The photographs are more than I could have hoped for, and looking at them brings tears to my eyes. They were able to capture so many emotions, and those photos are a gift I'll never be able to repay. I can't recommend them enough, and there aren't words for how much their dedication to those precious moments in our lives means to me. I can't imagine a special occasion without them...not only as photographers, but now as friends.

I’m Jamie Y, and there’s a reason why I’ve made photography such an important part of my life. I believe a camera is the perfect tool for capturing bright, colorful, and deep moments from bright, colorful, and deep people, and I have spent over 10 years using my skills to do just that. My favorite subjects are couples and high school seniors, and I am thrilled to help preserve the love, smiles, winks, and glittering futures I see on the other end of my lens.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are recently engaged or thinking about getting married in Las Vegas or maybe out in the desert you want to elope - either way Jamie is your person! She is beyond talented and is very well connected in the area so vendor assistance is a huge plus because she can help you and give you tons of recommendations. Her artistic and fun ways of capturing your true self is perfect. She will help you capture your intimate moments, the ones you will remember and laugh at, or even take you to a tattoo shop and capture the memories that last forever. Whatever crazy, fun, unique idea you have your day - she will help you accomplish it your way. I would 100% recommend Jamie for all things for your wedding, elopement, after party - she is the best for it all!!! She is absolutely amazing in low lights as well. We hired her for our Happily Ever After Party that we held at Virgils Las Vegas and it was dark and she killed every picture. She really made our evening with friends and family the best night I could have asked for. I asked for a lot of candid shots of everyone enjoying the evening and she did exactly what I wanted. The number one thing I would recommend is when she asks for your shot list - spend time giving her exactly what you want - even if that means holding off on completing the questionnaire until closer to your day so that you can make sure you capture everything you want. She 100% uses her shot list to work off so it will be important. Also she is a huge plant fan and great person. We had never met her before our day and I can tell you we connected with her more than we expected. We can’t wait for the future so we can go back to Vegas and shoot our anniversary shots with her at the Neon Museum - because she freaking kills it every single time!

I loved everything about working with AK. Their style fit my wedding perfectly. They helped with little details and were so easy to work with. I also really liked that they have been photographing weddings for their own companies for years. Who doesn't love a good rebrand. On our wedding day, they were prompt and efficient. They did not miss a shot and when I got my photos back later I could not believe how many memories they were able to capture. THANK YOU for making my wedding day perfect.

I fell in love with photography in high school and studied photojournalism in college. Before my wedding photography days, I honed my craft taking portraits – and chasing down breaking news stories for newspapers in my home state of Texas. I’m still a photojournalist at heart; telling your story is the soul of my work. I spend my free time outdoors as much as possible: hiking in the Laguna Mountains, camping in Joshua Tree, swimming at La Jolla Cove, sailing to Catalina Island.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nick has been just fantastic to work with. We had met with him back in the summer of 2019 to discuss and had planned for our wedding for May 2020. Of course we had to pivot and change plans due to COVID, which unfortunately included pushing the date to August (who knew COVID would linger on for so long...). He has been nothing but flexible and understanding throughout the whole process. Working with him on the day of the wedding was seamless - he is a true professional who clearly knows what he is doing. Neither I nor my husband (!!) are too comfortable in front of the camera, but the direction and guidance Nick provided for us made the whole photo-taking experience so much easier and fun! We were also expecting our photos months after our wedding, but they arrived extremely fast! The quality of the photos is just as praise-worthy as Nick's professionalism. The photos are absolutely fantastic and are just perfect. We could not have picked a better photographer to capture this special day for us. 11/10 Recommend!!! If you are reading this and you pick another photographer - YOU ARE MISSING OUT!!

I'm a caretaker by nature. (Enneagram fan? I'm a 2w3) I love to laugh and am often told I have a calming presence. My friends tell me I have a huge heart and am a good listener.

We couldn't have been happier with Melissa, from engagement photos to wedding, and since then every annual family photo shoot, she is the best and we gets compliments on our photos year after year! Her fun and creative personality put you at ease and she even is patient with my crazy kids and dogs! I have had friends who use someone cheaper, but they only get a couple of photos or a very restrictive shooting time etc. We love that we don't have to worry about those things, and for the product and service we get the investment is more than fair! Hire Melissa, you'll be glad you did!

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!

Madeleine was hands down the best wedding photographer I could have ever asked for. She is amazing with communication and she made sure that my husband and I's big day was both magical and stress free. She helped coordinate our first look, a special and timeless moment that we will never forget. I did not know what to expect for our first look and I was really nervous thinking about it, but she knew exactly how to set it up so that it was the most genuine and perfect moment of my life. She also did an outstanding job working alongside our wedding florist, as well as with our day of coordinators. We were able to get some amazing photos on top of a mountain/hill at our venue overlooking a valley. Despite the flowers for our half circle arch being situated all the way down at the ceremony area, Madeleine and our florist were able to work together to bring them up to the hill and do a coordinated photoshoot for us there. I loved seeing our gorgeous flower arch in two different locations at our venue. Everything about Madeleine Collins Photography is so professional, from the planning before the big day, to receiving all of the edited photos afterwards. The photos came out so beautifully and she did such a great job bringing out all the right colors and lighting. She knew exactly how to capture the lighting and our expressions. If you're still in between photographers and deciding, I can guarantee that you will not regret choosing Madeleine.

Hiiii, I’m Taylor! Wife to my best friend, Golden Retriever mom to our Beckham, and outdoor enthusiast. My business was created purely out of passion. I’ve always had a love for photography, art and design. I first picked up a camera in 2009 during a high school film class and haven’t stopped shooting since. My photography is inspired by nature’s beauty and life’s beautiful details. I have an infatuation with natural light, details & beautiful scenery. I strive to create light-filled, romantic & timeless imagery, from capturing all the small details to the raw emotional moments. This is my dream job and I’m thankful for it every day.

I don't even know where to start! Taylor is the BEST photographer around! I am absolutely obsessed with my photos and have received SO many compliments. Taylor is a natural, and was literally everywhere! We are able to relive the entire day because she truly captured it all. Taylor made the entire process so seamless and easy for us. Taylor made us both so relaxed and at ease, and was so much fun to work with! My husband was a little awkward at first (during engagement session) because he's never had photos like that done before, but Taylor made it so fun and enjoyable and kept us laughing the whole time that it felt so natural with her. On our wedding day I felt so confident and comfortable with Taylor and our timeline we created together, that I wasn't worried in the slightest. Taylor is incredible and you'll be so lucky to have her for your wedding photographer!

She knows how to give perfect direction to make sure she gets the best shot. We were blow away by the photos and could not have been happier to have her photograph such a special day. I have no reservations to recommend Maddy Greene to anyone looking for a photographer!

Rob James is a Creative Wedding Photographer based in Colchester, Essex, available across the UK, Europe & Worldwide. Specialising in crafting elegant visual narratives for local and global celebrations with a vision to capture the essence of your special day through the medium of storytelling. At the heart of this approach lies the strong belief that your wedding is not just an event; it’s the culmination of your lives so far both with and without each other. It’s the intricacies of who you are, your hopes, your fears and your dreams that intertwine to create a narrative like no other

Highly recommended Rob for your wedding. He helps make everything as stress-free as possible. From the initial Zoom call to coordinating on the day, Rob was always on hand to reassure you. Rob worked incredibly hard over a 12 hour day with multiple locations including the hotel in the morning and some very busy streets in Soho. He made sure we got all the family and group photos as well as the more candid moments we wanted throughout the day. Rob is not only a fantastic photographer who can translate your vision into reality but someone you can feel instantly comfortable around. Great for a couple who don't like their pictures being taken!

I love colorful, full of fun, romantic, true-to-you weddings! A little about me, Ariel! I can't live without love, beautiful in-season flowers all over my house and adventure. I've been lucky enough to photograph weddings for the past 10 years; over 200 weddings!

Ariel shot my husband and I's Long Beach art district engagement session and our Joshua Tree anniversary shoot. I wasn't lucky enough to have Ariel photograph my actual wedding, but hopefully, you will be able to swoop her up because she is a gem! The testament to a great wedding photographer isn't just that they capture beautiful photos, but that they communicate and listen to you as a couple and make you feel at ease. Ariel is incredibly professional and makes sure she understands what you want out of your images, while also bringing her expertise and experience to capture those special moments that will bring you joy. You are in safe hands with Ariel if you're not comfortable in front of the camera or are afraid of looking awkward because she takes the time to help bring out that natural smile and loosen you up. I know this because I'm a self-proclaimed adorkable person who can get super awkward in front of a camera, and Ariel has a way of gently suggesting a better angle/shot or inspiring a more natural smile. She doesn't just click a button but is looking at the photo she is capturing to ensure she is snapping a beautiful image. Ariel also doesn't heavily treat her images with dramatic filters. She just brings out the beautiful colors and light of the day. If you want simply beautiful images, Lark & Lavender is the way to go! When you hire Lark & Lavender, you're not just hiring a wedding photographer but a creative artist who has a vision for capturing every beautiful and memorable moment of your day, plus she just makes you instantly feel relaxed and at ease which is essential on what can sometimes be a very stressful day.

My superpower is the way I connect with your vision. I see you guys on the best day of your lives. I see how well you two fit together, how in love you are, how perfect it all looks. And then I use my camera to make sure that’s exactly how you look in your photos. As someone who grew up *hating* all photos of me, I'm ultra aware of that for others. I still cringe a little when I think about having my photo taken, but I’ve found that it’s always easier when a friend is there to keep me laughing. My sense of humor (and obsession with bad puns) is the perfect way to break the ice for effortless, fun photos that help you feel your best!

I have been a storyteller my whole life. From throwing on crazy costumes to entertain my family to picking up a camera for the first time, I've always known storytelling was my passion! I am a wife to my rock, my goofy dance partner, my best friend. I am a mama to Parker and doggy mommy to Dunken who is constantly chasing both of them around yelling "YOU'RE SO CUTE LET ME SQUEEZE YOU!!"... true story.

When we were planning for our wedding almost a year ago, it was so important to find a photographer we loved and were able to completely trust. We immediately knew after our initial phone conversation with Tyler that we didn’t need to look any further. Tyler isn’t just a photographer...she does SO MUCH more. Our wedding venue ended up canceling on us midway through this year. I was devastated but Tyler was there every step of the way and ALWAYS accommodating. She answered texts and was always available...even if it was asking for advice on bridesmaids dress colors. We ended up deciding to elope with family in an intimate beach setting. Tyler helped pick a venue and led the entire step of the way. I never felt like I was just another bride to Tyler. My grandparents who weren’t able to attend got to relive the day through our photos which is something I’ll cherish forever. We look at our photos almost daily and stare at them in awe...nonetheless, Tyler gave us a sneak peek in about 24hrs!!! If you want someone you can trust and rely on and know someone who can take all you milestone photos moving further...look know further. Tyler is simply the best.

My name is Jason Burns. I’m a photographer specializing in weddings and elopements based out of Southern California. I've always had a love of the arts and have taken every opportunity to participate in them, discovering photography in college. Growing up in the pacific northwest, being surrounded by such all that nature and beautiful landscapes I feel has always inspired me in my photography. I feel grateful every day that I can call this my career.

My wedding planning company has hired Jason many times and he's always professional and a calm presence at our events! I also appreciate Jason's clear planning communication and flexibility. Even during our 2020 events, we were able to work out postponements and multiple re-scheduled celebrations. I love Jason's photography skills and relaxed, yet refined shooting style. I will continue to recommend him to my future clients, as working with Jason is always the best!
