We decided to have a destination wedding and we knew that what mattered the most to us was our choice of photographer so it was a big decision for us. I stumbled across Megan's work and was instantly impressed. Not only is she extremely talented with what she does, but she also is very professional. She has had amazing communication, and was super flexible and kind when something last minute popped up. She has helped me have an ease of mind for my wedding day & she is one reason I'm not bridezilla. Having a destination wedding is already risky enough, but with Megan, it's the best choice we've made thus far.

My 2023 wedding almost didn’t happen because California experienced the “storm of the century,” which closed down highways and caused major flooding and mudslides throughout the state. Despite being caught in the storm and stuck on the 5 Freeway for hours, Crist and his assistant made it to the venue on time and ready to roll. Crist ensured that everyone was in good spirits and made the most of the day. He was like a personal hype man! We loved his positivity and professionalism.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

From the moment we met Isaac, we knew we were in the best hands. He has an incredibly calming presence and a natural way of making you feel comfortable, which meant we were able to be fully present on our wedding day. Our Sonoma farm wedding unfolded with a gorgeous outdoor ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner reception, followed by music and festivities in the barn. Isaac captured every moment with such artistry and intention. The images feel effortless yet elevated as every frame tells a story, from quiet, emotional moments to the joy and movement of our guests celebrating into the night. The photographs from our first dance in the barn truly took our breath away. The way Isaac used the natural light, textures of the wood, and atmosphere of the space made the images feel cinematic and timeless. Working with Isaac was seamless, professional, thoughtful, and genuinely joyful. Looking through our gallery feels like reliving the day exactly as it felt. The images are beautiful, emotional, and full of life. We are endlessly grateful for his vision and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone dreaming of a wedding that feels both authentic and artfully captured.

I randomly entered Anderson’s giveaway for a free engagement shoot and was shocked when I actually won! At first, I was skeptical, but Anderson followed up and patiently answered all my (many!) questions. From the start, he felt more like a friend than a photographer. He helped us pick the perfect location and outfits, and when we had to reschedule due to an emergency, he made sure we still got our shoot—never once making us feel like “just another client.” On the day of the shoot, Anderson took the time to get to know us as a couple, and the whole session felt fun, natural, and full of love. He kept us moving, laughing, and feeling like ourselves. The preview video and final photos were absolutely stunning—we were in tears. Our friends and family were too. We’re not wedding planning yet, but when we are, Anderson will be our first call. Highly recommend—he’s the real deal.

Ethereal, candid, jovial, refined are some of the buzzwords that the images of our oak tree & hanging lights, spring evening, 100 person ranch wedding brings to mind. Carissa made sure to get an idea of our and our family's priorities and vision for our wedding day photography months in advance. As the day approached she nailed down specifics of timing and herding those dear to us to capture everything we wanted! She has an eye for catching family dynamics, sweet background moments, and her whole team is quick to drop to the floor to get the perfect golden hour angle, play with long exposure, or get some kids laughing! They coordinated wonderfully with our other vendors throughout the day on things like equipment positioning and audio capture. We knew we would love any photos of us as a couple on the happiest day of our lives, but the width of their professional and personal vision for the whole picture is what truly captured our hearts.

Anyone thinking of booking Amber for a wedding, engagement shoot, or just some family photos… Do not hesitate! Where to begin… Amber is outstanding! We booked Amber for our elopement to San Francisco from the UK in Nov 2023. At first we were apprehensive about making the big commitment to a photographer, we wouldn’t have the chance to meet face to face before the big day. But we were quickly put at ease after speaking with Amber. From our initial enquiry, right through to Amber putting us in the cab back to our hotel after our ceremony, Amber was a dream to work with… The relationship we developed was so professional, yet friendly and fun. Amber was super organised, and very responsive to all our questions and emails, communicating from the UK was not an issue at all… Even up until the morning of our ceremony, Amber was in regular contact with advice, and guidance on how everything would run. Amber listened to our all ideas and worked with us to put together a package that captured exactly what we wanted, and more! Both my husband and I were very nervous about having our photo taken, but Amber immediately put us at ease, and made us feel so comfortable and relaxed.. We weren’t even aware of onlookers, and the photos came out amazing. We’re so thankful we have such beautiful photos to look back on. We are truly so grateful for Amber and the time she spent with us, we could not recommend Amber enough… She smashed it, and we couldn’t have done it without her!

Holly is so awesome! I cannot emphasize enough how much fun my fiancé and I had at our engagement shoot! Holly did an amazing job making us feel comfortable the entire time. We’re both pretty camera-shy, but we couldn’t get over how much fun we had during the photos. Holly has an incredible eye for great shots and captured both candid and posed moments beautifully. She also guided us through poses in a way that felt natural and easy. Looking forward to having her capture our wedding!! I cannot recommend her enough!
