Alyssa Morgan Photography

  • Editorial style

  • Serves Lagunitas, CA

June of 2012. Just two months after my mom was critically injured and hospitalized. I began using my camera as an emotional outlet. I started taking portraits for family and friends, and eventually, photographed a courthouse wedding. As time went on, it hit me: These photos are freaking important! And I knew from personal experience that these moments, & the people in them, aren't going to be here forever. That camera became so much more than an outlet. It gave me purpose. And now I see my job as an act of service to you. I'm honored to use my talents and skills to deliver what really matters: TANGIBLE MEMORIES OF YOU & THE ONES YOU LOVE

Alyssa was an absolute dream to work with!!She is incredibly easy to get along with and makes you feel comfortable and relaxed on the big day. The pictures came out better than I could’ve imagined, she captured everything perfectly!

Tara was amazing from beginning to end. We absolutely loved her photography style when we first came across her as a preferred vendor of our wedding venue (Beltane Ranch), but knew that we also needed to love HER if we were to spend the majority of our special day with her by our side. Luckily, from the moment we had our first chat with Tara, we knew she'd be perfect for us. Our engagement photo shoot at the Sutro Baths in San Francisco was the perfect way to get to know Tara's style and she helped us bring our vision to life in the shoot. Once we got to the wedding day, we completely trusted Tara to nail it - and, boy, did she deliver! She was SO efficient and organized. It was certainly a huge benefit that she knew our venue, but I am certain she would have been just as impressive in any environment. One of the best aspects of hiring Tara, ultimately, is her art. Her photography is truly a work of art. She has an incredible eye and managed to make two very awkward gals (my wife and I) feel incredibly comfortable behind the camera. We are just enamored with the photos she took and will cherish them for a lifetime. The cherry on top of all of it was that she turned around our photos within 1 week of the wedding! We received the digital album during our honeymoon and it was so fun to reminisce while still celebrating. Thank you for everything, Tara!

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,700
  • Serves Lagunitas, CA

I am an Oklahoma born, but Cali raised - dancer, roller skater, photography stylist, photographer, momma to two little girls, foodie, crafter, lover of laughter, action and pyscho-thriller movie watcher, and sports player. I also find peace in the outdoors and California trees. I like to keep it active and adventurous. I believe in giving 110% at everything I do, but also want it to be fun. I chose photography to be my vocation because I have a true obsession with humans and the way we love, interact, and celebrate rituals personal to our families and cultures. I stand up for equality and justice for BIPOC and LGBTTQQIAAP.

Joy was so amazing from start to finish! We booked Joy and her team for our Engagement session and Wedding Day. She helped brainstorm ideas for the engagement shoot and made all our visions a reality with bomb photos of us featuring my husbands old school. As all brides know, the planning experience can be stressful and full of anxiety dealing with multiple vendors - but I never had that experience working with Joy. I 100% trusted her to capture our big day. I’ve heard stories from other brides about “I wish our photographer did this, was able to take photos of that..” but not with Joy! She communicated great leading up to and on the big day. Everywhere I looked Joy and her team was on the move capturing the best shots in the right spots. Our photos turned out amazing and we were so happy to have Joy there with us on such a memorable day. I highly recommend and trust Joy for any photo sessions, whether it’s family holiday shoots, grad photos, engagement sessions and wedding day! She is an absolute gem, so talented and pleasure to work with!

Heather was lovely to work with. She had tons of ideas which made things way easier for me and less to worry about! She shot our engagement pictures on the east coast & our destination wedding in Spain. For the engagement shoot, it started to rain and turned for the worse! I figured the day was over and that was it, but Heather got creative, pulled out a fun umbrella and we had a great time!! The pictures are super fun and amazing to look back on now that we are married. The wedding pictures were just as fun-- Weddings are known to be high-stress but Heather was on top of things made life so much easier. She knew which pictures to take and when I would forget about certain group combinations with our families she would remember and get the shots! Not to mention she is just a super nice person so I felt comfortable making requests or asking for certain things. I also love the edits she did and really made the images stand out. I really can't recommend enough for every couple to book Seeking Venture for their wedding!

The quality of her work is soft, natural, whimsical, and woodsy, with a wonderful candid style that captured all the special moments of our shoots . For our engagement session, Aleena made my husband and I feel completely at ease, even though we had never had professional photos taken before. She took the time to make the session feel personal and special, resulting in beautiful candid shots. We've continued to work with Aleena for family photos over the years, and she always delivers stunning, memorable images. We absolutely love Aleena's work and will recommend her to anyone, whether they are planning a wedding, elopement, or just looking for beautiful family portraits.

We used Brianna Noelle Photography for our wedding she was professional and understanding. She appeared at our civil ceremony downtown SF and then traveled to our reception. We received previews quickly, within days. We received the full album and then some within the timeframe she provided. If I had any questions or requests she addressed them. It was a pleasure working with her and highly recommend.

We are passionate about photographing kind-hearted people who are unapologetically themselves, and creating a safe and beautiful space in the wedding world for LGBTQ+ folx. Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

Awarded Best of Zola
When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

Halcyon Echo 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Lagunitas, CA

The greek myth from which the phrase “halcyon days” is derived, is one of great love ending in a time of joy and calm. A euphoric recollection of the past and an optimistic reverence for the future. Echo denotes a feeling of resonance and return. Because our memories and dreams are almost never linear-they are organic-abstracted from reality and, often, largely defined by touch, scent and, of course, sight. My hope is to create imagery that will reflect the deepest of fully felt emotion from this day, back to you. Working with analog & digital processes from Denver, Colorado.

Working with Karly and having her shoot my wedding was a wonderful experience! She was such a pleasure to work with and captured the most amazing candid photos of our special day.

Hi, I'm Christina Hernandez, and I am passionate about emotional, documentary photography. After working 15 years as a staff photojournalist at the San Francisco Chronicle, I've taken my years of experience to create rich, memorable images for my couples. My goal is to create a photo gallery that tells YOUR story. You are unique and your images should be, too. I cry at weddings. I can't help it! I get emotionally invested and I won't apologize for it. It allows me to get into the zone where I am completely immersed in the moment and I strive to make images that reflect that. I love being inspired by new locations, and I go with the flow.

Christina was amazing, her photos are beautiful and she is so wonderful to work with! We didn't really know what wedding photos we wanted specifically, and she just curated us and the photos, and they turned out brilliantly. She isn’t intrusive during the ceremony, we didn’t even notice her and nor did our guests -yet there were so many photos! She is very responsive to emails, texts and calls. She does great check-ins and even asked if we needed help with anything the day before. She is the best and I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!

Trung Hoang Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,495
  • Serves Lagunitas, CA

My name is Trung, the head honcho at this eponymously named company. My name is pronounced “Troon”, which sounds like spoon, so ignore those other letters that make life complicated. I've been a photographer for close to 10 years, photographing things big and small, far and wide. It's pretty incredible how impactful and valuable a split second image of a given time, place, person, or object can mean to a person. Whether it's a photograph of someone you love or a place you'd love to be, photographs spark memories or inspire the pursuit of new ones and that's why I love it.

Trung was an amazing photographer to work with, and the easiest of our vendors to work with. He and his wife, who typically shoots with Trung, came to the venue to tour it with us and get a feel for the area. His communication and organization are top notch. Most importantly for my wife who is camera-shy, Trung is great at making people feel comfortable around a camera, and directing poses and looks that he thought would be nice. As a hobbyist photographer, some things I really appreciated about him are he is someone who is completely ok with you taking the digital files he gives you and editing them yourself, which some photographers do not allow. He also takes amazing landscape photos, and brings those skills and artistic sensibilities into his editing and wedding photography. We later (about a year later) asked Trung to put together a wedding album for us which he gladly did, going through 4 iterations with us. I also asked for one of the photos to be edited slightly different to fit the rest of the page which Trung was happy to do for us. Other things about Trung: 1) Punctual 2) Flexible (our wedding ended up running behind and suffered a blackout at the venue, both of which he took in stride) 3) Captures great photos, posed and candid! My wife and I would hire Trung again in a heartbeat! We still keep in touch with him more than a year post wedding if that helps to show you how great of a guy he is.

Want a trusted, unobtrusive, thoughtful pro photographer friend on your wedding day? Someone to capture the way the wedding FEELS as well as it looks. A little direction during portrait time, a little leadership during family portraits, and near invisibility all other times? I think you’re onto something. I’m in. What's exciting? What’s important? What's confusing? Let’s sit down for a discovery meeting and I’ll ask, listen, lay out options, and share suggestions. I want to learn about you. I'm on your team 100% before, during, and after your wedding. Bonus: I've shot 400+ practice weddings before yours and I absolutely LOVE what I do!

Olivia was incredible!!! The preparation leading up to our wedding was so easy and Olivia really took the time to get to know us and learn what moments we didn’t want her to miss during our wedding. We didn’t need to worry about a thing on our big day. She was very organized and allowed me and Josh to enjoy the day with full confidence she was snapping all the right pics! We also got them back in record time! Only two weeks after the wedding! We would highly recommend Olivia if you are looking for a photographer who is professional, fun, easy going and super talented!

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 was a huge part of our wedding day and the planning process. From the moment we met him a year before our wedding day for our engagement photos, we knew we picked the right photographer for us. We fell in love with his quality of work, work ethic, and personality. He coached us with posing, and we were comfortable taking his direction. The vision he has comes to life candidly in the photos, and after three photo sessions with him, I cannot pick a favorite because they're all uniquely beautiful. Our first session was our engagement session, which I wanted to do on a boat in the Keys because it's a special place and hobby for us so I thought it would be a personal touch and photos we could cherish forever. He was all about the idea and didn't nickel and dime us, which often happens as you plan this very personal event. I prioritized finding vendors who truly love what they do and are invested in their couple, not just the event, and Sebastian is just that! I am forever grateful to my planner for connecting me to him, and I hope to work with him for many more life moments.

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
My husband and I hired Kate to capture our civil ceremony at SF City Hall. We had our symbolic ceremony abroad a few more weeks out but wanted to sign the papers ahead of time first at home. She was very professional and so organized. Loved knowing I could rely on her guidance and expertise which was so needed given how much was going on around that time. Some of the photos took my breath away and she made both of us feel very at ease throughout the process. Highly recommend.

Vivian Chen Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Lagunitas, 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.

Storytelling photography that brings your story to life. There is a story to everything right? There is certainly one to your wedding and even to a portrait session. The in-between moments can be the best moments! Images tell a story and they are there for me to find. This isn’t one image. It is a series of images that provoke emotion and thought. This happens with trust and openness and I know I can only get this if you trust me and I am open enough for you to do that. When there is this intimacy, I can get to the heart of the images and that is when the storytelling photography happens.

Born in San Francisco, I grew up in West Marin, traveled to the East coast and Ghana for schooling and I am currently based in the East Bay. A mother, gardener, hiker, traveler - I have a background in dance and psychology in addition to photography. I've photographed weddings for more than 20 years.

Cindi and her team at Two Irises turned our wedding memories into incredible photographs that we will enjoy for the rest of our lives! My favorite thing about working with Cindi is that she listened to what I wanted and took photos that I requested (family/wedding party shots, getting ready shots, etc.) but she also took so many candid photos and captured real moments of joy of my husband and I and our wedding guests. Those photos ended up being my favorite pictures! I loved her work so much I recommended Two Irises to our friends, who booked them for their wedding - and in exchange we were gifted a beautiful print of our choice from our wedding! Could not recommend Two Irises enough.

We hired Virginie at the recommendation of our wedding planners at Matthew Robbins Design. Working with Virginie was an absolute dream - we first met a few months before our wedding, where we explained our vision, what we hoped for in terms of photography, and how the day would run. She stayed with us for hours, talking through ideas, showing us ideas and inspiration. We walked away so grateful to be working with her. Flash forward a few months to our wedding day, and I was so thrilled to see Virginie's face as I was getting ready. She is such a beam of energy, support and goodness - exactly what you want on your wedding day! She creative directed us so that we felt relaxed and happy, but knew that we were getting beautiful images. She captured EVERY. BEAUTIFUL. DETAIL of our wedding day - from the beautiful first look, to images with our family and friends, our ceremony and then those crazy/fun/wild dance floor pictures. We are over a year out from our wedding and still find ourselves poring over our wedding photos at least once a week. They are such a beautiful reminder of the amazing, special day we had, and it would not have been possible without Virginie. We were SO lucky to work with her and recommend her without hesitation. She is so talented and just a wonderful, wonderful human. We can't wait to work with her again!

For some unknown reason I have loved weddings since I was a kid. That’s the first thing. But then… I got married. And that is indescribable. So… if you happen to be here because you have met someone special, and you are making moves, CONGRATULATIONS! You really are in for the ride of a lifetime. So… my first photos? Yup. They were from a wedding! Unfortunately they took the human knee as their subject because I was short, because I was five years old. One auspicious day I brought a camera to a friends’ wedding. I partied. I had a fabulous time. Afterwards they told me I should have said something, my photos were better than the hired pro.

We hired Paul for our San Francisco wedding and it was easily one of the best decisions we made. In addition to beautifully (and creatively) capturing the energy and excitement of the day, Paul was also an absolutely pleasure to work with at ever step of the way. Our wedding was in San Francisco this past August and had approximately 65 people in attendance. To say that we had high expectations for our wedding photographer was an understatement: we wanted someone who would be able to capture the dynamic energy and emotion of our big day in a natural, joyful way. I am happy to say that Paul exceeded all of our expectations and then some. We initially reached out to Paul in February through his website and we scheduled an introductory phone call. At that time I was chatting with a few different photographers in the Bay Area but was impressed at Paul's thoughtful questions regarding our vision of big day as well as the logistical considerations (venue locations, lighting , size, etc). From our first meeting at his lovely home, Paul was kind, thoughtful, considerate which made us feel like we were in good hands and helped put us at ease during the craziness of the planning. He asked us to consider which moments would be most important to our wedding and helped us think through the logistics of the day. Paul was also helpful in planning some of the big day itself: we had scheduled a city tour with our guests to occur between the ceremony and reception but were unsure where to go in the city. He recommended locations that would be both enjoyable for our guests and would make good backdrops for photos. In addition to the city tour, the day itself had a lot of moving parts which could have been really challenging to photograph (indoor ceremony in City Hall, outdoor brass band parade in full sunlight, indoor reception with low lighting in small antique store). Paul and his second shooter were well prepared and able to shot gorgeous photos in every location. Paul was also very mindful of which moments would be most meaningful to us. For example, we had mentioned that we specifically wanted lots of dancing photos from the reception and so Paul made sure a remote flash lighting system was set up in the reception venue which made for some fantastic dance floor shots. We had also said that we wanted to make sure we had a lot of candid photos of our friends of family and so Paul made sure to mingle among our guests, putting them at ease and getting natural, candid photos of our loved ones. After the wedding, Paul was able to send us our sneak peaks only after 24 hours (!) and the full gallery a short time after that. At this point, I was already very impressed but what happened after that really blew me away: Paul emailed me a few weeks after the wedding to me to ask if he could photograph some details from the wedding that he wasn't able to get on the big day (handkerchiefs from the brass band parade, wedding invitations, etc). He told me that he felt that those details were important in telling the story of our wedding and he wanted to make sure they were captured. I realize that it would've been easy for Paul to simply send the photos he already had but the fact that he found it was important to capture all the small details really speaks to his thoughtfulness, professionalism and excellence. We can't thank you enough, Paul!

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.

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.

Born and raised under the vast Texas skies, my journey through life has been a vivid tapestry woven with experiences from across the great west. With a camera in hand, I have masterfully translated my love for fashion, cultures, and human connections into captivating visual narratives.

The Dream Choice really IS a dream choice!! Finding a photographer for our wedding was something that seemed so overwhelming to us. But Siouxzen couldn't have been better. She and her husband were so kind, fun, down to earth, and very talented. On the day of, having people like that around you the entire day (because they will be around you the whollllle time) was such a gift. Our venue was all outdoors, so finding someone to capture the greenery was very important to me and from the very initial FaceTime meeting we had, Siouxzen reassured me that was something she was down for. And she killed it! The pictures came back full of color, love and really captured the essence of our day. Her turn around was incredible - we got our pictures back so quickly. And we got a ton back! She listened to what I want, and captured all the moments perfectly. We were really into getting sunset pictures at our venue and she made sure we took the time to get a ton of different types of sunset pictures. She was good at getting us to try things, some things that worked much better than I would have imagined! We are definitly not "in front of the camera" people, so this was huge to get us out of our comfort zone for some really fun pictures. So, if you want someone who is priced well for the incredible quality, fun, talented, dedicated, trustworthy, quick, and kind - I cannot recommend The Dream Choice more!!

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.

As another photographer in our local wedding industry, I am constantly amazed and impressed by the creativity of Jamie's work. She is truly an artist and master of her craft and will make sure your images are not bland or boring, but one of a kind. She is kind, caring, and easy to get along with as well. If you want daring, unique images that showcase your personalities, Jamie would be a great fit for you!

Kass and Isa here! We're besties who separately fell in love with photo and vidoe in our childhood, grew our skills in college, and now we teamed up to offer wedding photo and video for our clients! We love to travel, drink coffee in the am, beer in the pm, and we LOVE weddings. Something we bring to the table that makes us a great vendor option is that we were brides in the last few years so we know the ins and outs of the wedding industry. We give you all of our resources and we love to be a part of the wedding process to help you in any way we can!

These two ladies....amazing work. They worked me with me during Covid and they were so understanding and respectful with wearing masks. The exceptional final product truly captured all of the fun and loving moments we had, except for me singing Shallow at the top of my lungs. It's probably best no one sees that anyway LOL! But I will for sure be reaching back out to these ladies for my maternity photos and any other photoshoot I can think of. 11/10 would recommend.

Hello I'm Valeriia! With 15 years of experience as a fine art wedding photographer, I specialize in capturing moments of happiness and genuine emotion. My approach combines an artistic eye with a deep passion for storytelling, ensuring each image reflects the joy and beauty of the occasion. I strive to create stunning, heartfelt photographs that couples will cherish for a lifetime, blending elegance with spontaneity to make each moment unforgettable.

We just received our wedding photos from Valeria and can't stop looking at them. I am very glad that at the moment when I started choosing a wedding photographer, I was lucky to come across one of her works and understand that this is the person I am looking for. For me, searching process was very responsible and not easy at all, because I work in a related area and had a clear understanding of what result I want to get in terms of style, mood and locations. The budget was also an important factor. Finding a photographer who would meet all the requirements and will be free in our date seemed almost impossible… But after texting to Valeria and starting to talk about the details, I breathed a sigh of relief because I realised - that’s it! The shooting process was also very easy and intuitive, we collaborated as a single creative team and definitely had fun(: In addition, we fit perfectly into the timing, which also proves Valeria's professionalism. And I'm sure that this photoshoot is not the the last one we do with Valeria(:

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!

My approach is simple – I love to capture love, and I want to provide you with imagery that you will cherish forever. I strive to create images that are classically beautiful and romantic so that they will withstand the test of time. My work has been described as colorful, emotional, authentic, and light-filled. I want to get to know you, as connecting with my clients, learning about their personalities, and how they interact with one another translates into the imagery I create so that I am able to capture those genuine moments.

Lauren Renee Photography. Gosh. I have no idea where to start. Lauren is magic. She has a gift, and she uses it to BECOME a gift to her couples. Lauren is KIND. She sent a gift when we first booked her. She cared when we had to postpone our wedding. She offered to do an engagement session on what would have been our wedding day, and then she made what could have been a sad day such a wonderful day still worth remembering nevertheless. After postponing our wedding, we were sad. “COVID brides” seemed to have obstacle after obstacle stacked against them, but Lauren made us excited for our wedding again and so optimistic that whatever it ended up looking like would be perfect. She reminded me of that several times over the past months. Lauren was uplifting and considerate during a time when those two characteristics were impossible to find in this world. Lauren is TALENTED. Our photos were PERFECT. I could not even pick a favorite, and more so I could not get over the fact that we had this Wonder Woman of an artist to capture our big day. She is professional and extremely detail-oriented. She wants to know how you met. How he proposed. Your family members’ names. The shots you care about. All your vendors. Your style. Lauren traveled the day before my wedding to photograph all my details just because she knew I had obsessed over them for over a year. Who does that!?!?!?! No one does that. Til Lauren. She makes you feel comfortable, confident, and beautiful. If you don’t love the camera, she will make you. If you don’t love yourself, she will show you your most beautiful you. She did that for me, and I would recommend her with every ounce of energy in me so other brides can feel that, too. Please, do not hesitate to book Lauren. You WILL NOT regret it. Her team is also incredible and SO kind. My dress and veil were.... a lot.... and not once did they hesitate to fix it and make sure everything was perfect all day. Your wedding pictures last a lifetime and, while Lauren might think the pleasure of capturing our days is hers, trust me... the pleasure is all ours.
