Hi, It's Kayla and I'm thrilled you pop into my profile. I've spent 5 years capturing the beauty of people through photography in Southern California. Wouldn't you agree someone's passion is the drive that amazes people? My passion since I was a babe has always been photography. A camera has been by my side since I was five years old. I took photography in high school and once graduated I grew my clientele. Hear from one of my clients "The pictures came out beautiful and had my mother in tears of joy. She made us all feel very beautiful in the pictures. I highly recommend her photography services and will definitely be using her again. "

Kayla and Ash were an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Their communication style made the planning process smooth and stress-free - they were very responsive over text which was so convenient. The photographs they delivered are breathtaking - light, airy, and romantic. They perfectly captured the love and magic of our special day. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this talented duo. Kayla simply rocked it! I hope their business continues to flourish because they provide tremendous value and deserve to have their calendars filled. We feel so fortunate to have found them.

As a seasoned candid photographer and videographer rooted in the vibrant landscapes of Southern California, I bring a wealth of expertise to my craft. My passion lies in crafting exquisite wedding highlighted films, where each frame tells a unique story, capturing the essence of unforgettable moments.

When I found out my kids did not have a wedding photographer I was scrambling last minute to find someone. I reached out to Eli and from the first moment of speaking I knew we were in good hands, he came through as stated he was professional and caring. Wedding day was crazy busy Eli arrived on time even though we were late! He helped us unload our car the moment we got to the venue and once we were all settled, he got right to business of taking his photos. If you are looking for a kind, caring photographer Eli is the one, I’m so glad we found him and can’t wait to see the photos from our special day!! Thank you again Eli we so appreciate you!

Working with Bri was such a pleasure! For starters, we planned our wedding in two months, and she worked us into her schedule (for a destination wedding at that). She reached out, was very engaging, and quick to respond to any questions we had. Leading up to both our engagement shoot and our wedding day, she arrived hours early and spent time scouting out the best locations. For our engagement photos, she found the most stunning mountain location and trekked with us through the snow to capture the stunning photos! For our wedding, we told her what we were envisioning with the scenery and people, and she made it happen in a beautiful way! She was organized and managed time well in taking the photos. On our wedding day, she arrived early and captured the day perfectly. She is such a joy to have around, brightening the room and making it easy to rejoice in the day. Our engagement and wedding photos turned out stunning, we continue to receive compliments on them as people can't believe they are real. Would HIGHLY recommend Bri for any photos you would like!

Hey, I'm Alex! A sappy, soulful, empathic human who believes #loveislove, all relationships are uniquely special, and both sides are your good sides with a little confidence and a built-in cheerleader (aka me). Being part of a couples' wedding day is the ultimate honor. My goal is to capture your love at its most natural, your wedding details like they're straight out of a magazine, and your candid family like a National Geographic photog would. Coming from a big family with lots of personality (hellooo I'm the oldest of 8), I "get" what you're feeling as you plan this wedding and I'm here ensure you LIVE FULLY on your wedding day.

Talented. Professional. Fun. We feel like we struck gold with Alex as our wedding photographer! We wanted a photographer that could do it all: capture real emotion, help create some editorial moments, and deliver fantastic family portraits - and we got that and more with Alex. We are so happy with the results! We’re also so glad we did an engagement shoot prior to our wedding. It allowed us to get comfortable being in front of the camera and when it came time for our wedding day, it felt like Alex was just one more friend in the room who just happened to be capturing every special moment.

Hi, I'm Sophia, a 26-year-old wedding photographer based just outside DC in NoVA. Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — vibrant, authentic, and joyful.

We were thrilled with Sophia Osborne Photography for our wedding photos. Sophia was extremely professional in all of our communications leading up to the big day - she was organized, responsive, and helped us feel at ease.

Hi! I’m Justin (he/him) and I’m here to affirm your love, make you feel like a fucking rockstar, and dance like a total fool. Oh, and take so many gorgeous photos of y’all. Obvs. My style blends both documentary photojournalism and fine art photography: coaching folks who are shy in front of the camera, then stepping back to capture authentic moments uninterrupted. I’ve been lucky enough to have my work published by A Practical Wedding, The New York Times, GLAMOUR, People Magazine and many other fabulous outlets. I'm a stereotypical Capricorn that loves drag shows, campy horror films, every dog I meet, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

My husband, Peter, and I hired Justin to photograph our wedding at the Marriage Bureau in Manhattan on July 26, 2019. It was an intimate affair--17 people total, including us. Justin and I spoke a few weeks before the ceremony and I was immediately impressed by the questions he asked me. He not only wanted to learn more about us and our relationship, but also asked about all of the guests! On the day, he showed up on time and photographed us all while we waited for our turn. I watched how he would talk to everyone as he worked, and all of our guests commented on how much they "loved" Justin. He is warm, funny, compassionate and talented. He also knows how to calm a nervous bride. We had to wait an extra long time (they were short one marriage officiant), and knowing that we had a lunch reservation pending, I was visibly stressed. Justin had a way of acknowledging my feelings, while also helping me to accept the present situation and reassuring me over, and over that everything would turn out okay. And...it did. When we got our photos back, I had tears in my eyes...so many of the photos literally took my breath away. He perfectly captured the feelings and the energy of our special day, and these are precious memories that will last our entire lives! I highly recommend Justin to photograph your wedding! You will be so happy that you did!

We are a wedding + elopement duo serving the Nashville area + some other special places that make us happy. We can’t wait to meet you! We started capturing weddings through covid when we were stuck at home and needed to find some way to be creative. Savannah went to school for videography and Jon is an OG drummer turned videographer that has really enjoyed getting to create. If we aren’t celebrating you and your love story, you can find us at the beach, probably eating some yummy food, and missing our fluff ball kitty at home. We are so easy going and love to be spontaneous with our plans.

Gabbie Burseth Photo 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves Mecca, CA

Gabbie Burseth grew up documenting everything and saving mementos in empty Christmas boxes. After studying at the Grady School of Journalism at the University of Georgia, she discovered an affinity for weddings and their accompanying treasures. Her philosophy as a wedding photographer is to observe with as little interference as possible — no faking it, no do-overs, no “for the camera”. Her biggest desire is for couples to be present at their wedding, not stuck in a photoshoot. Her work is punctuated by rich and vibrant color, the timeless quality of analog film, and a sense of humor found in fleeting moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
The professionalism, raw talent, and sweet demeanor are only a few of the exquisite gifts Gabbie offers. If you are looking for a photographer who is the complete package, look no further. When selecting wedding vendors, every blog post will tell you that choosing your photographer is one of the most important (if not the most important). However, little information is provided after that tidbit, which can be daunting for an excited (albeit overwhelmed) bride who wants every detail of their wedding to be perfect. Sean, my now husband, and I had selected our venue, The 1909 in Topanga Canyon, CA., and our coordinator, Allison, with West Events LA, provided us with a list of her preferred vendors -- insert us coming across Gabbie. I remember going to her website, scrolling through her work, and being enamored with how each photo captured a different emotion and feeling. We both immediately knew that from looking at her work alone, we wanted our photos to look and feel the same. After sending an inquiry and coordinating a call, Gabbie & I spoke on the phone for close to an hour about what we had in mind for our wedding, and I remember it all clicking when Gabbie described her work as "documentary" style. Sean and I knew we didn't want a videographer for our wedding, so Gabbie's techniques and overall vision aligned perfectly with what Sean and I wanted. We also opted to do a round of engagement photos with Gabbie 5 months before our wedding, where she came into our home to take photos of us in our most comfortable and natural state (chasing our dogs around the yard) and then for a shoot at a local winery that we love to go to. Not only did we have such a fun and great experience, but we also felt so comfortable and relaxed with Gabbie. We almost forgot we were there to have our photos taken! We received the gallery back shortly after and were so thrilled. Fast-forward to our wedding, we had hired Gabbie a second shooter for 8 hours. They met us at the venue for the final getting-ready details around 1 pm and stayed through to a good portion of the dance floor, around 9 pm. They arrived promptly and were even extra helpful with Sean when getting his suit on! While those details may seem minor to some, it was that unique care and attention from both Gabbie and her second shooter that made Sean & I, and all of our guests, feel so beautiful and confident to be themselves. When Sean and I got our gallery back, we spent a solid three hours scrolling through every captured moment, laughing, crying, and squealing with excitement. I am not exaggerating when I say that seeing the captured images and how Gabbie so beautifully arranged them in the album was purely magic. Any time we go through the album, we genuinely feel transported back to that day, and there is no doubt in my mind it is because of Gabbie's pure mastery of her craft. As part of her thorough questionnaire, one of the questions was what percentage of digital-to-film prints we would like, and for ours, we chose 50:50. I'm so glad we opted for film, and I almost wish we had had more because these photos are indeed what dreams are made of. The icing on the cake, Gabbie also wrote us an adorable card after the wedding, which included 3 of the film prints. Sean & I will forever be grateful to Gabbie for her work and friendship. We love you!!

We couldn't be more thrilled with the exceptional service provided by our photographers! From the moment they arrived, punctual and ready, they went above and beyond to ensure every moment was captured flawlessly. Not only did they have an eye for the big picture, but they also attended to the smallest details, like fixing Anthony's tie or assisting Ada with her dress buttons, making sure everything was picture-perfect. Communication was seamless throughout the entire process. They were attentive, responsive, and truly invested in understanding our vision. Additionally, We were amazed by how quickly they delivered sneak peeks the very next day, allowing us to relive the magic instantly (and honestly every time someone asks how the wedding was). Even though they're based in Texas, we would not hesitate to rebook them for any future events. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for their clients make them stand out in the industry. Thank you for making our special day even more memorable! 5 stars without a doubt.

Since receiving our wedding photos from Jess, several of my friends and family members (including 2 professional photographers!) have asked me for her contact info because of how amazing her photos are!! When we started looking for a wedding photographer, we knew that we needed to find someone with a great eye for candids, who wouldn't make our pictures feel too staged, who had a fun/funky vibe like us, and who could handle wrangling my extremely large family (full of very opinionated people) for family photos, and Jess handled everything with ease! I feel so lucky that we found Jess, and I cannot recommend her more. Jess made everyone feel comfortable throughout the entire wedding day, and even gave guidance to family members who are normally awkward in photos (e.g. suggesting ways to pose to make them more comfortable). Jess went above and beyond throughout the entire planning process, checking in with us, getting to know us, and even coming to a venue walkthrough so she could get a sense of the space! I am so grateful for all of the work Jess put into our wedding, and the photos turned out better than I could have ever imagined. I rarely even like photos of myself, but I honestly am so in love with the ones that Jess took that I jump on every opportunity to whip out my phone and share them with friends!
