  • Serves La Mesa, CA

Hello! I'm Natalie, a passionate documentary photographer dedicated to capturing the authentic and heartfelt moments of your special day. My approach to wedding photography is all about storytelling. I believe the most beautiful photos come from genuine, unscripted moments that reflect the true emotions and unique story of each individual couple. When I'm not behind the camera, you can find me spending time with my family, traveling to new places, or just cuddled up with a good show and a comfy blanket. I’m always inspired by the beauty of everyday moments and bring this inspiration into my work.

Working with Natalie was a dream. It can be overwhelming having a camera on you and all this attention on you but Natalie carries herself with such a beautiful energy that puts you at ease. She really helps pose you and feel comfortable and before you know it you’re posing on your own. The confidence really shows in her images. My husband and I couldn’t be more happy with our photos! Can’t wait to work with her again, would recommend to all of my friends!

Hi Friends! I am SO happy you're here! You're in the thick of planning! If you want to spend your day savoring, being with your people more than taking the perfect insta photo, and can't wait to dive into life with your partner - I am your GAL! You'll look back on your day seeing the emotion, the connections, and the still moments that you were present for, with me as your photographer. I also am a pair for those who consider themselves "awkward" or "doesn't like themselves in photos." With my guidance, attention to detail and direction, we are a pair! I would love to hear about your day to see if we're a fit! Can't wait to hear from you!

Due to the ever-changing schedule of military life, we suddenly got very last minute in our wedding planning. We are so happy that Katherine was available for our wedding day! She made sure to photograph everything we knew we wanted, but our favorite photos are the ones we never could have even dreamed of! Her artistic eye captured our entire day perfectly, without any stress of photos we "had" to take. A great combo of posed photos and in-the-moment action, she made us always feel comfortable. We received our photo gallery quickly, and the hardest task has been trying to figure out our favorites! I also appreciate the occasional check-ins since the wedding to keep me on task with ordering -- I'm sure otherwise it could be years before we got anything printed!

As a photographer, my goal is to capture stories in the form of images. Photos have the power to help you relive a specific moment in time and recall all of the emotions and details surrounding that moment. When I work with you on a photo project, my goal is to provide you with photographic records of those moments. I want you to be able to look back at your photos years from today and be able to relive that moment in time.

HIRE THIS TEAM!!!!! We love everything about this company! We were lucky enough to be able to work with this wonderful team before we were even engaged, so we were blessed with not only the most magical wedding day photography experience, but also our engagement session, engagement party and bachelorette/bachelor party. Our experience was ABSOLUTELY the best we have ever had with any vendors we have ever hired. A true professional and a true friend every step of the way, the desire to make us feel safe, seen, prepared and excited leading up to our day was so clear and so deeply appreciated. The way her and her assistant made every member of our bridal party and family comfortable throughout the day and by the end of the whole process, we will forever treat them like family. The photos we've received thus far are nothing short of phenomenal. I have truly never felt more beautiful! We could not have dreamed up a better photographer or a better experience. Thank you thank you thank you from the bottom of our hearts! If you are looking for an incredible all around photography experience for your wedding, you have truly found it!

I’ve been happily married for almost 27 years. I have three awesome sons. My parakeets Kiwi and Sparky are very social, meaning very loud!

I lived in Japan for 12 years, and even performed on a stage there. I’m always up for a great road trip! I love tuna fishing. I love hats and want to wear them everyday (over 20 hats in my collection). I’ve been shooting beautiful weddings for almost 10 years. I secretly cry at every wedding.

I interviewed six photographers before selecting Carlsbad Photo. Irina was so easy to deal with from start to finish. We live out of state and I was nervous about selecting a photographer I had never met, but Irina put those nerves to rest. Our wedding photos turned out so beautiful and she captured our beach wedding perfectly! Carlsbad Photo and Irina were an excellent choice! She was fun to work with and her talents behind the lens are fantastic! Irina even sent us a sneak peek the very next day after our wedding so we can share them with our family and friends!!!

I’m a small town girl living in the big city of San Diego. You know the saying, “Home is where the heart is?” For me it has two meanings. If home is a physical place, mine is the magical little town where I was born – Ojai, California. It is a place where people can breathe deep and feel the wholeness of their lives. It's a magical little valley of peace happiness. If home is truly where the heart is, then mine is my family. In 2016, I married my best friend and the father of our beautiful son and daughter. We are a squad of awesomeness and those three hold my heart in the palm of their hands.

I was raised in the Sierra Nevada foothills of California. I was drawn to photography in middle school and would enter photos of our family pets or family backpacking trips in our local county fair. My passion for photography grew while working as a hiking guide in Yosemite National Park. I mean… who wouldn’t want a stunning photo of Half Dome? El Capitan? Yosemite Falls? But it has been photographing wedding and couples that I find the most fun and rewarding. I have found loving hearts, wild souls, and adventurous spirits to be my people. I strive to visually capture the “spirit” of my subjects and record an emotional memory of the occasion.

I have traveled and photographed weddings and engagement shoots all over the country including internationally. I still get nervous before every wedding I photograph. If I didn’t have nervous tension, I probably would have lost the drive and passion for what I love doing the most. The reason for my love of wedding photography is simple: I love spending the day with brides and grooms creating wedding day memories that will last a lifetime. I hunt for moments that cannot be recreated or relived. I love capturing the raw emotion of a wedding day. I want to be the best not only for myself but especially for my clients.

Just book Peter! You won’t regret it. Super cool and personable from our visit video call with him. He was very flexible with our engagement shoot and generous with his time. Let me tell you…his vision!? Oh my. We have GORGEOUS photos from our engagement sesh as well as our wedding. I literally could not believe my eyes once I saw the photos! Anyone can take photos but Pete has the vision and artistic eye for epic photos! I cannot recommend him enough!

We are Hayes and Bree, your San Diego wedding photo and video duo! In 2020, we met online, but were stunned that both of us had been capturing weddings through photography and videography separately for years! After getting married, we combined our businesses to create one where we not only get to continue doing what we love, but get to do it together. Whether it's a local wedding in San Diego or traveling to gorgeous spots like the European countryside, we would love for you to come along for the journey!

Bree is absolutely the sweetest woman ever and an incredibly talented photographer! It’s hard for me to know where to start! I was looking for a light and airy, timeless photography style and Bree totally emulates that! From the beginning, Bree was so accommodating and helpful. She sent over a welcome packet with tips to make your shoot look the best possible including outfit suggestions. She also provided resources about wedding planning and vendor selection! She truly goes above and beyond to make wedding planning and your wedding day flawless! We had our first shoot with her for our engagement session in winter 2019 in Kent, OH! I was excited to be in front of the camera but my fiance (now hubs) was not as excited (tip: ALWAYS do an engagement shoot for this reason.) After about the first 20 minutes into the shoot my fiance loosened up and began feeling more and more comfortable and I credit that all to Bree. She makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and her cueing is perfection. She turned around our engagement photos in a timely manner and they were BEAUTIFUL. Leading up to the wedding Bree was more than a photographer! She helped listen to some of my wedding stresses and give some advice, especially with COVID happening halfway through my wedding planning. She was flexible with all the changing situations and always reassured us that she would do everything in her power to make our wedding day perfect and she delivered! After filling out my pre-wedding shot list packet about a couple weeks before the wedding, Bree and her assistant arrived on time and ready to go! They were very organized and knew exactly how to take charge of the group. She flawlessly wrangled my hubs and his groomsmen for photos, directed ALL of my family quickly through family formal photos, and captured every important moment of our evening. Even my bridesmaids were saying how sweet she was for days after my wedding! Bree was amazing and sent over a few sneak peek photos in a couple days and they are GORGEOUS! It makes us so beyond excited to get all of our photos back. My husband and I 110% recommend Bree as your weddings/engagement/senior portrait/family photos or anything-you’d-ever-need photographer! I hope to have another reason to work with her in the future!

I was raised in Denver, Colorado. For most of my life, I took for granted the beautiful, jagged landscapes of the Rocky Mountains. It was not until I moved to Africa for a ministry internship after I graduated high school that I started to admire the beauty that constantly surrounded me. This also was when I got my first camera. I took photos to remember my experiences in Africa. This is when I fell in love with the art form. Photography opened my eyes to the beauty that surrounded me everywhere I went. I quickly learned that every person, place, and thing has a good side— you just have to find it.

Born and raised in New Jersey, I’ve always had a passion for storytelling through art, which led me to photography. Now based in San Diego, I specialize in event and wedding photography, capturing moments with a journalistic and editorial approach. My goal is to document authentic emotions and connections that reflect the true spirit of every event. When I’m not behind the camera, I love to paint, cook, bake, and spend time with my dog, Willow, and my growing collection of plants.

Having Brittany as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made. She didn’t just capture beautiful images; she captured the emotion and essence of every moment. She made us feel so comfortable, and it felt like she was always in the right place at the right time without being intrusive. We are beyond thrilled with the memories she gave us! I highly recommend her.

To me, capturing the moments of your wedding day is not only about making photos. It is about seeing your love in every single detail. The way you look, smile, touch and hold each other’s hands are those tiny things that help me portray the story of your big love without any words being said.

I really enjoyed Natalia so much! So creative with the film shots. The eventual overall photos were beautiful. I’m not sure how she ran around and captured it all in such a way! She was very punctual and very cooperative about the multiple locations over the course of the day. Wonderful photos I’ll adore forever. Thanks so much Natalia!
