Hey I’m Sierra! You are here for a REASON. I am a Colorado/California based natural light photographer, specializing in big weddings + intimate elopements. Capturing love while getting to tell your remarkable, unique story is the best most special honor. Believe me it is more than just a job to me it is how I am choosing to spend the BEST years of my life and I want to spend them with you! Let’s have fun, let’s be vulnerable, let’s have the best time of our lives while you run around with your hearts on your sleeves. Why? Because we only get to tell this story once so let’s make it the best one ever written.

Our wedding was our third time working with Sierra and Jullian (Youphoria Films), and yet again, they exceeded our expectations. I used Sierra for my wedding gift Boudoir photos, we used her for our Elopement event (35 people) and we just used them for our Black Tie Wedding (80 people). They are such a supported and enthusiastic team, while also being extremely calm and composed the entire time. We never once worried about their performance as they are always professional, communicative, and just overall fantastic. We have loved our photos and videos, and will always recommend them to our friends and family! Get yourself a crew who feels like friends, because that is what they do and it makes the world of a difference!

Anna is an amazing artist with a clear vision. She is the most infectious ball of energy and just sweetest person. Working with her was so easy and she completely understood everything we envisioned. From last minute planned engagement session to a long minute by minute planned out wedding day, she was calm cool and collected every moment. She took charge when she needed to and was very into the candid moments as well. After hours of research into our photographer, we could not imagine our day with anyone else. STUNNING PHOTOS.

Photographing joy-filled weddings in a natural yet bright and vibrant style to bring candid and editorial moments to life.

Prioritizing your experience in the moment while capturing all the moments in between. My style is natural, organic, and colorful with an editorial flare that aims to capture authentic human connection and the natural environment around you.

Sure, here's a refined version of your review: From start to finish, our experience with Kayla and the gallery was absolutely fantastic! Kayla set up numerous helpful meetings along the way, which was crucial since it was a surprise proposal for my now-fiancé. There was a lot to discuss, and I had many things on my mind to ensure everything was perfect. Kayla brought so many great ideas and suggested amazing locations, helping us decide where to go for the photos. She really calmed my nerves, always willing to schedule a meeting whenever needed. We also had a second photographer, who was equally amazing! If you have the opportunity to get a video of your proposal through a second photographer, I highly recommend it. Kayla and her team were incredible, and we were very fortunate to work with them. My fiancé and I highly recommend Kayla to anyone looking for a photographer.

  • Serves Petaluma, CA for additional fees

Hi I’m Taylor Anne! She/her! I’m a published editorial fashion and wedding photographer based out of Dallas, Texas! I knew for certain that I wanted to be a photographer on a trip to Paris with my mom in 2005. I had a small little point and shoot digital camera that I used to take photos of literally everything around the city. I got artistic with the sunset over the Seine, and caught a couple having a romantic moment on the bridge. It was then that I said to myself, “Oh, I actually kind of like this,” and began the process of photographing for the next 16 years.

Taylor is awesome!! She was so fun to work with! She did my bridal session and also my wedding! I couldn’t be any happier with my photos! The day we had my bridals scheduled it snowed and she brought gloves, a shaw, and hand warmers for myself and my mom and friend that tagged along! She made sure to get every picture I wanted as well as made sure all of my family made it into my pictures at the wedding. My pictures are so perfect & she captured everything I could ask for & more!! I highly recommend her to anyone for any pictures they want! She won’t disappoint!

Hey, hi, hello! My name is Nancy Chhin, I’m a wedding and elopement photographer based in Portland, Oregon. I grew up in Southern California, I visited Oregon once and fell in love! I’m totally a kid at heart, so much so that I still have a giant stuffed shark on my bed and my favorite food will forever be cheesy fries. I’m the type of person that will say hello to every dog I meet on the street and freak out when I see a dog hanging their head out of their persons car or when I see cows grazing while driving down the backroads. I'm a huge lover of the outdoors and quiet mornings with a huge cup of coffee and reading on the balcony.

Forevermore by Nancy was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the start, their communication was quick, dependable, and extremely organized - making the planning process a breeze. On the day of, they made taking pictures easy and took off any pressure, allowing us to just enjoy the moment. The quality of their work is truly stunning, with gorgeous, fun photos that captured all the special details. They were so kind and fun to work with throughout the entire process. We couldn't be happier with Forevermore by Nancy and highly recommend them to any couple looking for high-quality, helpful wedding photography.

I’m so glad you’re here. Really. My name is Katie Griffith, I’m 25 years old, living in the gorgeous mountains of Utah. Although it gets so cold and snowy here, you really can’t beat the Utah outdoors. The mountains feel like my second home. Ive been married to my best friend for over 3 years now, and our lil pack consists of our baby girl and our Golden Retriever. These three are my whole world! Honestly, I never knew this level of happiness existed before they came into my life. Ive been photographing weddings and elopements for 5+ years now, and I love what I do! I couldn't imagine doing anything else! This is truly my dream job.

We had 3 wedding location changes and our engagement pictures and wedding were all delayed due to COVID, however Katie was a rockstar and super flexible with all these changes. She rolled with the punches and stayed on top of everything with us by communicating on a regular basis while also giving us our space/time to figure things out during pandemic and unforeseen future. So far we were only able to have our engagement pictures in Utah (which were amazing and was our where our cancelled wedding was to take place). The pictures turned out beautiful, very candid which we love and she made us look great! As of now we are still planning for late summer/fall 2021 wedding and so looking forward to working with Katie again and seeing more of her amazing work! She is highly recommended within the Utah area and as a destination photographer.

My parents don’t have professional photos of their wedding. It’s ironic being that I photograph weddings for a living. Long story short, my Grandfather hired a distant cousin as their wedding photographer, his customer service was beyond subpar and pricing was vague. He eventually went out of business and apparently took the photos down with him. It’s a sad story but it is something that fuels my mission as a wedding photographer. To give my clients a memorable experience from the first Zoom meeting to the delivery of their gallery and beyond.

Nick is such a fabulous photographer -- he captured every big and little moment of our special day. He put us at ease and made us feel comfortable on a nerve-wreaking and exciting day. The photos are some of my favorite of my entire life. He's amazing!

Yadira is a Bakersfield native that was raised by immigrant parents. She fell in love with love at a young age through art, music, & poetry. From that inspiration, Yadira always wanted to create art with love as the central theme. She began doing photography at the age of 14 and was mentored by local published and award winning photographers for 3 years. By the age of 17, she moved to North Hollywood where she was taught and mentored by high end fashion photographers who worked for Vogue, Vanity Fair, Style Magazine, Elle, and more.

What I love about Ninety Nine Photography is that it is more than just one experience. They do all of the big moments and the short sweet moments of our lives. My wedding would have not been the same with another photographer, simply for the fact, that Yadira listened to what we really needed for our big day. A great choice indeed!

A Charleston Wedding Photographer with a fierce love for storytelling, fostering memories and capturing those moments that you will want to treasure forever. I get to tell your story. And, I think that’s pretty cool. I love traveling everywhere and anywhere, talking with my hands, buying plants (and attempting to keep them alive), and spending as much time as I can with my loved ones. I have lived in Boston, Paris, and New York City, and am now lucky enough to call Charleston home, while also still traveling the world for my clients. You can usually find me on my back porch in downtown Charleston, right next to my favorite little park.

tldr: Jessica is amazing and I don’t think you can go wrong with her if this is the style of photos you like I had a lot of difficulty picking a photographer as I’m pretty picky with photos. I knew I wanted something bright and light, with kind of a whimsical or ethereal vibe, but it was really hard finding the style until I came across the “fine art” style. Jessica’s name came up while researching this style and I decided to reach out to her among a few other fine art photographers. I definitely hoped talks would go well with Jessica as the others I contacted ended up either not responding or were wildly out of my budget. Pre-Planning: Jessica was wonderful throughout this process. She promptly responded to my emails and answered questions clearly. I never felt like I was left in the dark for any part of the process. When I sent her the timeline of the ceremony/reception, she quickly came up with a timeline to slot in all the photos to be taken ahead of time at the location (We had access to the venue for a little over an hour prior to the ceremony). She also asked for a list of family photos that we wanted to take. This made it very easy at the wedding as she could call out people’s name to make sure everyone that was supposed to be in the pictures, were in the pictures. Jessica also sent over a list of ideas for detail shots and explained she could do this ahead of time. We didn’t want extra pictures of these and decided against it, however, I still thought it was very thoughtful of her to offer. Wedding Day: I loved her energy at the wedding. She was very calm and felt very competent. She directed my husband and I throughout the pictures, showing us poses etc. During family and wedding party photos, even though we had many bodies to fit in the frame in quite a few pictures, she led us through them with ease and the entire experience was very stress free (or as stress free as can be at a wedding lol). The venue was quite dim at specific locations, but the final results did not reflect that at all. The pictures were bright and did not look like they were taken in the dark at all. (This is a little off topic but I loved the little apron with pockets she wore for her equipment. So cute) I’m not sure when Jessica had the time, but there were pictures around the venue which were so beautiful. I definitely feel like the day was captured through the pictures. Post Wedding: Jessica sent us a sneak peak 2 days after the wedding containing 23 pictures. They turned out great and were beautiful. You can see examples on her website so I won’t elaborate, but they really are that good. The full gallery was sent almost a month after the wedding (minus 2 days) with instructions on purchasing prints or an album attached. The full download contained 650ish files, including the sneak peek pictures. Half of which were black and white, so this matched up pretty perfectly with Jessica’s estimation of the amount of photos when we spoke in the pre-planning stage.

As a kid it never dawned on me that my obsession with polaroid film, disposable cameras and old family photographs would lead me to being a full time wedding photographer, but here we are and boy do I feel lucky. So who the heck am I? I'm the kid who sat next to you in your high school art class that was WAY too excited for our next project. I'm that friend who loves to laugh till they cry over a silly Parks and Rec meme. I love meeting new people (and will totally hug you the first time I meet you!) and I'll be the old lady who is pretty darn proud of every wrinkle that came her way from smiling way too much.

I’ve worked with Jenny several times in a professional capacity, and she is an absolute pleasure to work with. She’s so kind and warm and makes everyone feel welcome. Not to mention, she’s fantastic at what she does. You won’t regret hiring her for any reason.

We wanted a photographer that would keep everything natural and timeless and that’s exactly what we have. I am not a person who is comfortable in front of the camera , but, I love all the photos Alex took. She is beyond amazing and was able to keep us calm through all the chaos. We can’t say enough great things about Alex. She is amazing.

Kayla Bouren Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Petaluma, CA for additional fees

With a passion for blending editorial sophistication and candid spontaneity, I have honed my craft over the last 6 years, capturing the laughter, tears, and all the tender moments in between. The commitment I make to you extends beyond photography. My meticulous approach begins with anticipating your needs even before they arise, ensuring a seamless, elegant experience. I hold the value of family close to my heart, treating your loved ones as if they were my own, collaborating harmoniously with your vendors, and providing clear communication to ensure your day unfolds flawlessly.

If you're looking at these reviews, I am assuming you are interested in booking Kayla as your wedding photgrapher, and all I have to say is DO IT. Kayla is amazing. She photographed both mine and my brothers weddings. Here are a few things I loved most about having Kayla as my photographer (from a bride)! 1) stress free. Kayla asks for your input and list of wanted photos weeks leading up to the wedding. She then creates a list for day of and takes care of the rest. I did not have to do a single thing managing what photos I wanted the day of my wedding. It allowed me to really enjoy the moment and be present (which is exactly what I wanted). 2) natural candid photos. Kayla does an amazing job of getting your natural smile in photos. I loved my photos. 3) SO many good photos. Kayla provided us with SO many photos to choose from. This allowed me to print off a variety so I didnt have the same few photos all over my house. 4) Comfort. Kayla did an amazing job making me and my husband feel comfortable day of and in the photos. 5) made my vision come true! With both venues we booked, I had a vision of wanting to use the entire venue to allow for different photos opportunities. One of the ideas I had were 'getting ready' photos with my husband in the kitchen. Kayla made my vision more than come true. These are some of my favorite photos she took, and allowed my husband and I to spend time together before walking down the aisle. I am a very picky person, but I would do everything all over again the same exact way for my wedding, including having Kayla as the photographer. I could not recommend Kayla enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m a wedding vendor, (Someone Said Yes DJ), and have worked with Rachel twice now. She’s awesome. What’s important to me is a few things. 1 - fun to work with. It’s a serious team effort to rock a wedding. Everyone has to be positive and on point. 2 - guest interaction has to be upbeat and professional. The photographer communicates with the guests to line up the photos. This has to be done with a great attitude and with professional instruction 3 - photos have to look amazing. This is what it comes down to. I love working with Rachel and am pretty confident you and your guests will feel the same. And don’t forget, your photos will be beautiful.

Love, Jackie Wedding Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,850
  • Serves Petaluma, CA for additional fees

Hi I'm Jackie, and I literally love my job! I’m a New England-based photographer for the last 18 years. I have to admit though, I love taking this one woman show on the road and travel makes me the happiest. I have been lucky enough to shoot destination weddings in England, Iceland, and Alaska. I would describe my photography style as very laid back and natural. The little in between moments make for the best photos, and I’m not about capturing awkward prom poses and forced smiles. I want the real stuff - the stuff that’ll make you laugh till your cheeks hurt and will make your heart beat faster.

What else can I say? Awesome awesome photographer. Kept everyone at ease, took wonderful photos, everyone loved her, she kept my wife calm (big plus!), and you can tell she absolutely loves what she does which is refreshing. Would really recommend her to anyone looking for a talented photographer and piece of mind for your wedding day.

The day of was not rushed, everything was well thought out and it went perfectly. We had a great time with Zäni and Duwayne who are so friendly and fun to be around! We can’t recommend them enough!

I am a storyteller, inspired by the timelessness of cinema and the beauty of honest, unguarded emotion. From the rolling hills of Hudson Valley, New York, to the sun-kissed shores of Maui, I bring a deep appreciation for the interplay of light and shadow. This dance of luminosity and depth breathes life into each image I create. Your wedding day is a chapter in a story that began long before we met —and will carry on long after. If you find beauty in romance with a touch of mystery, if you want your wedding photos to feel like visual poetry, let’s create some magic together.

Sari Wynne Photography provided the most incredible photographic experience for our wedding day. From our very first interaction, Sari's communication was fast, clear, and friendly, putting us at ease right away. Her work is truly magical, capturing the essence of our relationship in the most enchanting and romantic way. Sari has an innovative eye that allowed her to beautifully document all the special moments, big and small, that made our day so unique and memorable. This was hands down the best photographic experience we've ever had, and we're overjoyed with the stunning, magical images that will allow us to relive our wedding day for years to come.
