Ryan Michaels Photography was a bit slow at communication, which is understandable since Ryan works a full-time job in addition to running his photography business. However, with a little patience, we were able to work through any delays. The quality of their work was beautiful, and they truly captured all the special moments of our wedding day. Ryan and his wife were friendly and enjoyable to work with, and their services were so comprehensive that we didn't even need to hire a wedding planner. Overall, we were thrilled with Ryan Michaels Photography and highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

My husband and I got married in September 2024 and we can truly say Enea and Hayley were our favorite vendors to work with throughout the entire process! Not only did our photos come out absolutely STUNNING but both of them were extremely personable, friendly and fun to work with. They did a good job working with our backdrop/venue. Our wedding was held at Chabot space and science center so there was limited “pretty” areas to work with, and yet they still managed to make our photos look out of a magazine. Thank you again Enea and Hayley!!

Imagery by Carissa Dugoni 
Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves San Francisco, CA

I’m Carissa, a California-based wedding photographer specializing in true-to-color editing, candid documentary coverage, and natural, editorial-style portraits. My work focuses on real connection, emotional storytelling, and the in-between moments that define a wedding day. With more than a decade of experience, I photograph weddings with an intentional, relaxed approach that helps couples feel comfortable, authentic, and fully present. My husband, Tyler, joins me as our videographer, bringing the same warm, storytelling-driven style to every celebration.

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. Thank you Dugonis for loving on us!

Love Knot Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (27 reviews)
San Francisco, CA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,500

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Vivi’s experience shines through in everything she does. We had Vivi and Benji as our photographer team for our civil ceremony. From the very beginning, her communication was excellent, and she helped us feel fully prepared well before our session even started. She navigated our City Hall ceremony with total expertise, knowing exactly where the best lighting would be for the specific time of day and season. She took all the stress out of the logistics by planning a detailed timeline and even suggesting the perfect lunch spots for us to refuel. We also did an outdoor shoot at the Legion of Honor and were absolutely blown away by the fantastic results. Vivi has a way of making you feel completely at ease; we spent the whole session laughing, which made for such natural photos. I know that when we look back at these pictures many years from now, we will still be so grateful. We will cherish these memories forever. We feel so lucky to have had her as our photographer!

San Francisco, CA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $9,750

My name is Cassie and I am a hybrid film + digital photographer, completely fascinated by the human story and the parts of it that we all share. My aim is to tell the story of your love and laughter through images that are timeless and intentional. I believe in storytelling through details, emotional portraits, and finding those quiet moments in the midst of celebration. I love capturing real moments that help my couples remember how they felt on their wedding day, through the lens of my own airy and dreamy style.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we started working with Cassie, it felt like we were reconnecting with an old friend. Cassie is so thoughtful, patient, and funny- and we got to experience that multiple times when we connected with her for our photography. We truly believe that her vision and personality is what makes her photos feel so authentic and filled with light love. As awkward people anxious about taking photos, we were so relieved how Cassie made us feel comfortable from the beginning of our engagement session. She was able to somehow fade into the background, while also guiding us and capturing genuine moments. We loved that photo session so much that we ended up hiring her for our welcome dinner as well! Cassie was so easy to work with leading up to the wedding, making sure to get a list of our important shots ahead of the wedding while working closely with our planner to make sure there was a clear schedule. This meant that we could be as present as possible on our wedding day. On the big day, Cassie honestly felt more like a part of the wedding rather than simply a vendor. She knew how to make everyone comfortable, made sure the bridesmaids and groomsmen were having fun, and made the day feel natural for us. We got all of the wedding photos we wanted, and managed to even be AHEAD of schedule so we got to spend more time at our cocktail hour!!! Cassie’s photos capture the full range of emotions on the wedding day, because she’s able to connect deeply with her couples and understand what is important to them. Her style was something we gravitated to as we wanted a photographer who would not simply chronicle our event, but also capture the small details and genuine emotions that we might miss during the day. For both the engagement shoot and our wedding weekend, Cassie promptly delivered sneak peek highlights within a couple of days, and the full album within her initial estimate (8 weeks). She managed to capture the full essence of the day. Everytime we look at those photos, they bring us right back to those moments and feelings. We are so lucky and thankful to have had Cassie as our photographer. Hire her for your wedding! You will not regret it!!

Courtney came highly recommended to us by one of my best friends, and we truly feel so lucky that she was our wedding photographer. From the very beginning, she was incredibly easy to work with, organized, and very experienced which helped everything run smoothly. On our wedding day she felt like so much more than just a photographer — she was an extra source of support, helping guide us through the timeline, hyping us up, and making sure we were actually able to enjoy the day. It was clear she genuinely cared about making it a smooth and memorable day for us. We interviewed several photographers before choosing Courtney, and what really stood out was not only how beautiful her photos were but also how thoughtfully they were edited. When comparing her galleries to others, it was clear she puts real care and time into her editing process. She does an exceptional job editing skin tones (especially for those of us who are Asian or have tan/dark skin), making sure colors look true to life and not overly yellow or orange like we’ve sometimes seen with other photographers. Our wedding day was busy and chaotic at times, but Courtney went above and beyond helping organize people and keeping things on track. She was incredibly patient and great with kids and grandparents, and handled every situation with professionalism and kindness. She also asked thoughtful questions ahead of time to make sure she captured the moments that mattered most to us, which we really appreciated. She was also amazing at coaching us through poses so nothing looked awkward or forced. The final photos look so natural and effortless, which is exactly what we wanted. As an added bonus, she beautifully captured the love and connection between us in a way that felt so genuine. On top of everything, she was wonderful with our rowdy dog and made a real effort to include him in our photos, which meant so much to us. Overall, Courtney is not only a talented photographer who delivers stunning photos, but also a true professional who brings calm, positivity, and care to your wedding day. We cannot recommend her highly enough.

Unmatched, epic, insanely talented artist and masterpiece! We truly cannot say enough incredible things about Julia Goldberg. From the very first email, zoom meetings, to the moment she arrived at our hotel the morning of our wedding to the very last minute eight hours later, she was the definition of professionalism, talent, and calm energy. Julia gave my husband and I our dream wedding day in every sense of the word. Her attention to detail, direction, and posing skills made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, and she somehow managed to keep everything running smoothly while still making it so fun and natural. She was an absolute ROCKSTAR the entire day, anticipating moments before they happened and capturing them so beautifully and effortlessly. When working with her, you feel as if you’ve known her your whole life. Beyond her impressive talent, Julia is just an amazing person to be around. She is personable, friendly, kind, funny, and so outgoing—it honestly felt like we had a close friend by our side all day. That kind of presence made such a difference and allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment of our wedding day. And the sneak peek photos… omg we were BEYOND blown away and I cried tears of joy and am still at a loss for words looking at them everyday! Receiving them in less than 48 hours was already impressive, but the photos themselves were beyond anything we could have imagined—stunning, romantic, emotional, and perfectly capturing the magic of our day. She is worth every penny and more! From the day I found her Instagram and website, I knew there was no other photographer I could use for our wedding. Whether you’re getting married at the iconic San Francisco City Hall, on a Safari in Africa, or under the northern lights, she has the itinerary mapped out to a T and gives you the resources to make your day absolutely seamless while always keeping you in the loop and making you feel important and valued. It was truly a dream come true to have Julia as our wedding photographer. We could not have had a more treasured and memorable day without her, and we will be forever grateful. 10000000/10 experience and I want to get married over and over just to have her shoot us again!

If you’re looking for a photographer, stop your search right now — Jasmine is simply the best. She was referred to us by a close friend with impeccable taste, and wow… she exceeded every expectation. Our wedding came together in less than two months (which was chaos in itself) and on top of that, she had to deal with two stressed-out gays — but somehow, Jasmine made the entire process effortless. She is incredibly flexible, knowledgeable, and just brings this calm, confident energy that instantly puts you at ease. I was lucky enough to have her shoot our wedding ceremony and I still can’t get over how amazing the photos turned out. Every shot looks straight out of a movie — I honestly don’t know how she does it. She’s detail-oriented, organized, and has this eye for capturing the little moments that matter most. After seeing how beautiful our wedding photos were (which we’ll cherish forever), I asked her to photograph my post-bachelor party — and of course, she delivered again. Beyond her insane talent, Jasmine is just a joy to be around. So easy to work with, so responsive, and she makes everyone feel comfortable. Hiring her is not just hiring a photographer — it’s an investment in your memories. I’ll be recommending her to all my friends and family. She’s outstanding.

This is my second time working with Annalee Photography. Earlier this summer Annalee took stunning SF City Hall pre-wedding photos of me and my husband, and I am so happy she joined us on our official wedding day in the fall! When selecting a photographer, I chose Annalee because of her unique ability to create photos that can capture the feeling of the moment, but at the same time have a timeless aesthetic. Even her candid photos are well-framed and have aesthetically pleasing proportions. Her photos feel genuine, in the sense that they are not overly-polished, posed, or unrealistically perfect. Words can't describe all the love and happiness we felt viewing the our wedding photos. It felt as if we were reliving the feelings and the moments from our wedding day all over again! Working with Annalee the second time was somehow even better than the first time! She continuously finds new ways to improve her craft -- this time around she included a selection of film photos in addition to digital ones. I can also vouch for Annalee's versatility as a photographer. Our earlier photos were taken in the early morning indoors at SF City Hall, while our wedding day photos were taken in late afternoon lighting in an outdoor botanical garden, with additional family portraits. Both sets of photographs were lovely. From a logistical perspective, Annalee is a pleasure to work with. She is approachable, organized, and responsive every step of the way, from initial reach-out, to logistics planning details, to checking in the day before the photoshoot, to delivering our photo gallery earlier during a busy wedding season. While taking photos, she helps with posing details in a very approachable, yet time-efficient manner. Moreover, she is such a kind-hearted and thoughtful person to work with and puts everyone at ease with her calming presence! We feel so lucky to have found Annalee, could not ask for a better photographer to share our wedding day with.

I'm best known for my elegant and playful small weddings photographed at the iconic San Francisco City Hall throughout the last decade. After serving many hundreds of couples there, I've taken my super powers as a creative storyteller and solver of all wedding planning problems out into the wonderlands of Northern California. Inspired by places that are stunningly beautiful yet still affordable I love finding creative twists to keep her couples excited about their weddings no matter what their budget.

I love this team so much already! They have been amazing to work with and have great communication skills from Rachel, Leza, Melika, Nora, and our officiant, Shawn. The whole process is so worth booking. As a busy couple, we needed an extra hand for our City Hall SF marriage. And they made our flowers just like we asked for! I am a social worker, and it is obvious that their team knows weddings and how to make sure the day flows smoothly. We had a snafu and the team helped us so much. I will post more of the review after my photos are sent as well. We had a fantastic day at City Hall on 10/31. Here is a cell phone photo I last min asked for :) Dog friendly is always a plus.

I'd consider myself to be an easy going photographer who provides a comfortable space for you to be unabashedly you. The goal is to have fun and look good doing it. I'm your third wheel friend that just so happens to have a camera. If I had to put my style into words, I'd say I strike a balance between raw, casual, organic and elevated, quirky, fun. I want your photos to feel honest as well as unique. I've always been drawn to the idea that the quality of our relationships shapes the quality of our lives. Weddings are such a beautiful reminder of that.

I came to Jenna because I wanted wedding photos that felt like my Pinterest board but would still be timeless and chic ten years from now. And she absolutely delivered. From the very beginning, I was impressed by her creativity, knowledge, and kindness, from booking all the way through receiving our final product. Everyone at our wedding loved her, and we received countless compliments on her professionalism and work. She always seemed to be exactly where she needed to be when special moments were happening, without ever feeling intrusive. My husband is usually very uncomfortable on camera, and Jenna was able to capture him so naturally without making him feel watched or staged. We are beyond grateful for her and could not recommend her more highly.

I'm a Bay Area native with over 12 years in the commercial photography realm. I got my start on the beaches of Los Angeles back in 2012 shooting commercial swimwear campaigns for some of the best designers in swim and fashion. That opened the door to countless opportunities with modeling agencies, reality television, and fashion design. In 2018 I made the move back up north to San Francisco where I grew up. With a wide network of friends and family up here, I found myself catapulted into the Wedding and Elopement industry - and absolutely loved it! I'm honored when I get to be a part of one of the best days of a couple's life together.

Our experience with Sarah was absolutely fantastic. From the beginning, communication was smooth and effortless, with prompt responses to emails and even video conferences to discuss details. Our photography package included an engagement photoshoot in addition to wedding photography. The quality of the photos from both our engagement session and wedding day was outstanding. One of the highlights was receiving a few 'preview pictures' shortly after each shoot, allowing us to enjoy some beautiful moments right away. The pricing was transparent, and the payment portal was easy to use, making the financial aspects stress-free. Throughout the process, Sarah provided invaluable advice on shot lists and was incredibly easy to work with when it came to posing. If we had a specific idea or location in mind for a photo, she not only took the lead but also enhanced our vision beyond what we could have imagined. She also emailed us ideas and example photos for different locations for our engagement photoshoot, helping us make our vision a reality. On our wedding day, Sarah took many photos throughout our events, including getting ready in the bridal suite, first looks, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, speeches, and reception. She was excellent at directing our family members to ensure we got all our posed family photos. Sarah also took some beautiful shots of just us post-ceremony. Throughout the dinner and reception, we felt at ease and relaxed knowing Sarah was there capturing every moment. Beyond the professional aspects, our interactions with our photographer made us feel like we were working with a close friend. She always helped us to feel comfortable in front of the camera, despite us being introverted and inexperienced with being professionally photographed. Her support and encouragement throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding were truly appreciated and added to the overall wonderful experience. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a talented and personable photographer for their special day.
