Tess and the rest of the China Peak crew did an exceptional job at our wedding. On the day of my wedding, we realized the rental company forgot to deliver the chargers for the table settings. Tess sent one of her employees all the way to Fresno and back to get them and made it all seem like it was no big deal. Also, I tend to be a little camera shy and Tess did a great job of making me feel comfortable and directing us in a way to get great photos!

Hey, I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a wedding photographer, yes — but more than that, I’m someone who deeply values connection. I love getting to know my couples, their families, and their chosen families. I photograph all kinds of love, but I’m especially proud to serve the LGBTQIA+ community. As a lesbian and someone who’s been through the wedding planning process with my amazing wife, I know how powerful representation is — and how much it matters. Whether you’re queer or an ally, I’m honored you’ve found your way here. Tell me your love story, and let’s show the world just how magical it is.

Awarded Best of Zola
What an amazing experience! Michelle is truly one of the best photographers out there. She captured our surprise proposal beautifully! She even gave us Polaroids immediately following our session. She’s truly an artist. We have gotten so many compliments on just our sneak peek photos alone. My favorite one so far has to be “These pictures are stunning! Please pass her info along to us!” We have passed her info along to multiple friends who have asked already. I was so nervous getting all the fine details in place after weeks and weeks of prepping. Michelle was able to coordinate with our venue and make everything work so seamlessly. Michelle had everything and more when it came to having multiple cameras/ styles. You get quality and quantity. We are so happy with everything. My fiancé and I knew we were in great hands from start to finish. She captured exactly what we were looking for. She gave us great direction and made everything so effortless and comfortable. I am not the most comfortable in front of a camera so that is saying a lot! Cannot wait to use her for our future pictures/events. Truly a master at her craft! 10/10 experience. So glad we chose Michelle Gunn photography.

I had a very unique style wedding and most of it I tried to do DIY. In a nutshell, it became extremely overwhelming for me, so I asked my planner Rebecca to assist. Her and the owner were so kind enough to make my original package of Day of Planning, to Full planning at a discount! Saved my whole wedding day. I cried a few days before my wedding because remembering all the months prior, they were there for me every step of the way. And on the day, everyone kept asking me, Is your planner a friend of yours? I honestly told them, 100% yes. :) Because I feel like we now are friends. Such a family orientated company.

Every wedding is unique, and I believe your photography should reflect your story, your personalities, and the vision you’ve worked so hard to create. My photography style is vibrant, eye-catching, and detail-oriented, focusing on authentic moments while preserving the colors, emotions, and atmosphere that make your wedding day unforgettable.

My approach is documentary & candid for most of the day, with some posed editorial shots with couples one on one. I strive to create images that feel natural, timeless, and full of life.

John did a FANTASTIC job on our engagement and wedding photos. We could not be happier with how they turned out! He was quick to respond to all communication right from the start and always eager to discuss our requests and ideas. When it came time for our engagement shoot he was full of good ideas for locations and gave good direction on how to utilize the area for the best shots. He help us nail down exactly what we wanted him to capture at the wedding and then did the research necessary for him to carry out our requests. On the day of the wedding John was on time and ready to work. He was efficient with the small amount of time we had allotted for group pictures and was patient and able to capture great pictures of even the most difficult subjects - the flower girl and ring bearer. Some of our favorite pictures are from the very end of the day. Even after working hard in the heat all day John still delivered great shots. We were very impressed with the quick turn around. John had our pictures back to us in no time! John always welcomed our feedback and made sure we were satisfied with his product.

Tawni was our main point of contact for both photography and videography, and she communicated with us very well, mostly over text which was my preferred method. On the wedding day itself, Tawni was super communicative all the way through the end of their time with us on the dance floor. She made sure to come tell us what was next and kept us in the loop on switching our timeline to work with the best lighting for our couples shoot but still keep our overall flow smooth. Both Tawni and Paul's work is absolutely worth every penny spent. They helped keep us on track throughout the entire day, captured everything we asked of them and more and most importantly, made photo and film fun for us and our bridal party. I could not recommend Tawni and Paul enough to anyone - they work so well together and don't get in each other's way. They are the ultimate photo and film team!

My name is Siera & I absolutely adore documenting love! I am a full-time school psychologist for tiny humans & a part-time photographer for all humans. Also, I am currently in my fiancé & auntie era which is the best everrrr!

We are BEYOND grateful to have had Siera capture our elopement day! From the very first moment we met her, she made us feel like we were not just clients, but friends. Her warmth and kindness put us at ease immediately, and that made the whole experience so much more relaxed and enjoyable. Our family at the elopement have not stopped raving about how much they loved her too. You can tell she truly cares! She has an incredible talent for making you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and she has such a natural ability to capture those authentic, intimate moments.. Every photo feels so personal, like she was able to see and capture the essence of us as a couple. We were seriously so amazed at how many beautiful shots she managed to get, and we’ve received endless compliments from friends and family about how stunning the photos turned out. She was quick, professional, and SO TALENTED. We are absolutely obsessed with the photos she captured. If you're looking for someone who is not only a talented photographer but also a kind and genuine person who truly cares about your story, we cannot recommend Siera enough. She made our day even more special. I would give her a million stars if I could!!

Welcome to Valley Decors, your go-to destination for all your event planning and coordination needs! We are delighted to introduce you to our dedicated team led by Grace, our experienced event planner extraordinaire. Grace and her team are passionate about creating memorable events that leave a lasting impression.

Valley Decors provided good communication throughout the planning process, though we felt communication could have been better on the day of the event. However, they still did an excellent job overall. The team at Valley Decors set up the event flawlessly for our 350 guests - everything came out perfect. They have a great team that works well together. The only downside was that they picked up rented items like the table runner and napkins before the night was over, which I didn't appreciate, though I understand they needed to collect plates and glassware. Despite this, Grace and Travis were a pleasure to work with and went above and beyond, even stepping in when one of our other vendors fell short on tables and linens. They provided amazing rentals and were able to quickly deliver extra tables and freshly ironed linens with less than 24 hours notice. Although there were a few minor hiccups on our wedding day that were out of their control, Grace and Travis provided an exceptional setup and coordination for our event.
