Awarded Best of Zola
When searching for a photographer, I was overwhelmed by the number of options available. Dominique didn’t make me feel pressured. She provided us with her wedding guide, which gave us insight into who she is. When we met remotely, I instantly knew she was the one. She was enthusiastic, listened attentively, and asked us questions about what is important to us leading up to the wedding and beyond. She was great to work with, and I knew what to expect. She drafted our timeline, offered recommendations, and helped us design it based on what was important to my husband and me. She curated a family shot list, and let me tell you, she did not disappoint. Her and her team were amazing.

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves San Juan Capistrano, CA for additional fees

Hey there! I’m Emma. I’m a sassy, sarcastic redhead and also a complete sap. To keep it short, I value relationships and experiences above nothing else (although some would say I have a serious West Elm and pizza addiction as well). I love reminiscing and think some of the best nights involve sharing a bottle of wine with old friends and laughing about all of our past adventures (while planning new ones too!). When I think about it, I know I was meant to be a wedding photographer - because I admire your relationship, understand how important this journey to marriage is for you two and understand the importance of documenting it.

Emma is so talented and amazing to work with! She made a ton of recommendations for me because I’m eloped I didn’t know who to call, she played such a big part in putting my day together! My photos are so incredible I could not be happier with how they turned out. She made my husband and I both feel comfortable in front of the camera and was able to capture so much emotion! She’s incredibly gifted at what she does and I cannot say enough good things about her!!

Hi there! I’m Emma CotéEwers, your East Coast & Destination Wedding and Lifestyle Photographer! My work is a seamless blend of traditional heirloom portraiture, lively artistic shots, and a little ​photojournalism if the day calls for it. With a true-to-color, film-inspired approach, I strive to craft visuals that capture love, ​laughter, and those beautifully authentic moments that weave together the story of your ​wedding! I feel like these should include fun ​facts? Patsy Cline’s Walkin’ After Midnight is my favorite song and I am currently on my 8th ​nostalgic binge of Gilmore Girls (which might just be fueling my banter lately).

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the pleasure of working with Emma for our engagement photos, my bridal portraits, bridal shower and our rehearsal dinner. We couldn't be happier with the results. From the very beginning, Emma was incredibly professional, attentive, and truly passionate about capturing the essence of our love story. For our engagement session, she made us feel completely at ease and guided us with such a gentle touch, making the experience fun and natural. The photos turned out absolutely stunning, capturing the joy, excitement, and deep connection we share. When it came time for my bridal portraits, Emma exceeded all expectations. She understood how important these photos were to me, especially since I was wearing my late grandmother’s ring, which holds immense sentimental value. Emma managed to capture not only the beauty of the dress and the setting but also the emotions and memories tied to this moment. She has an incredible eye for detail and lighting, and the photos are a perfect blend of candid and posed shots that reflect our personalities and relationship beautifully. The final images are more than just pictures; they are timeless keepsakes that we will cherish forever. If you're looking for a photographer who is talented, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in telling your story through photos, look no further than Emma. We can't recommend her enough! Thank you, Emma, for capturing these special moments that we'll treasure for a lifetime!

I believe love is love and happily photograph couples of all backgrounds, orientations, religions and gender expressions.

My personality is friendly and warm, which helps make my couples feel at ease and open up in front of the camera. I donate $100 from every wedding day package to a non profit organization (either the ACLU, End the Backlog or the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation) because I believe paying it forward in honor of love is an excellent first step into marriage.

Jenna was recommended to us by another photographer and it was such a pleasure to work with her! We greatly appreciated how much she wanted to know us and our personalities in advance of our wedding day. We ended every zoom call or email exchange feeling confident in our decision to work with her. The weather on our wedding day wasn’t very cooperative, but Jenna and team were on the lookout for any break in the rain so that we could go up to the roof and get a few pictures. And she totally nailed them—they are some of our favorite pictures from the day. Jenna and team made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and also captured some incredible candids. If you’re looking for a fun, positive, and easy-to-work with photographer—Jenna is the right pick!

We are so happy we chose Lucia to capture our elopement. Lucia is professional, fast to respond to emails and texts, helpful with decisions, accommodating to any requests, concerns, and excited to give advice. Duncan and I really wanted our photographer to capture our true emotion and to get candids of us, and Lucia DID THAT! The day felt blissful and a key point for us was that we got to enjoy the day without it feeling solely like a photoshoot which I think speaks to Lucias talent and confidence in her craft. She was good at giving guiding advice for posing without us feeling posed. I put together a Pinterest board and shot list which she really did a great job pulling inspiration from. The photos are stunning and the exact style we envisioned. Also, our sneak peak was huge and she got them to us very fast. If you are torn between photographers or are just starting your research, you're in very safe hands to stop here. We hope to continue reaching out to Lucia in the future when we start a family.

Kelsey Sheehan Photography was founded in 2019. I made the jump into being a professional photographer to follow my heart and work in a career path that I love! When I am not working you can find me baking with country or 90s/00s R&B blasting, sitting by the fire with my neighbors, doing yoga, kickboxing, jiu jitsu, or hiking with my family. Okay, and maybe binge watching Schitt's Creek, Gilmore Girls, or Grey's Anatomy for the hundredth time.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do I even start?! From the very beginning of us working with Kelsey she was very professional and accommodating. Not only is she an amazing photographer, she’s an even sweeter person. The day before the wedding for our rehearsal dinner, she came and took photos, she was so great and really was just a great fit for the numerous personalities. For THE BIG DAY, Kelsey was the calming presence I needed. Whenever she picked up on me becoming overwhelmed she was got me back to a place of peace. She took charge in such a graceful way. At the end of this experience with Kelsey and her husband I consider them family and people I will always have a special place in my heart. My wedding day wouldn’t have been the same without her there. This will absolutely not be the last time we working with Kelsey. So Kelsey, thank you for being an amazing photographer but most importantly thank you for being such a beautiful person with an even more beautiful soul and presence.

Nam Tatum is a travel documentary and editorial wedding photographer with a passion for capturing raw, unfiltered emotions. She moved to the U.S. at nine and served in the Marines for seven years before turning her lifelong love for photography into a career. Her approach to photography is far from cookie-cutter. She's been behind the lens since she was ten, seeking out the candid, unscripted moments that reveal the true essence of her subjects. Nam’s style is rooted in authenticity, observing every detail with care and capturing love stories just as they unfold.

I seriously cannot put into words how amazing Nam is. My now husband and I had never done a photoshoot together so I was nervous how we would be. Nam made it so easy to feel comfortable in front of the camera. She’s a gem! Our wedding went flawlessly because of her. She stayed on track and got every requested photo and then some. She fit right in with all of us, cracking jokes and all. She has such a great personality and will go the extra mile for “the shot”. Can’t recommend enough!!

Literally cannot give them enough stars or praise! Kim and David were angels to work with! The day after our wedding so many friends and family texted me praising our photographers! Everyone could see their passion, kindness, and respect! We’ve only gotten our “sneak peeks” at this point but already more than worth the investment! Kim and David made our small wedding feel so big and special! They hyped us (and everyone at the wedding) up so much! If you are on the fence about spending the money DO IT!!! You will not regret it! Honestly their services were my favorite investment for the entire wedding! I cannot wait to work with them again! (No I had no idea who they even were until a recommendation from our wedding coordinator)!!!

I'm in love with human emotions, either it's laughing till it hurts or tears of happiness. When your man hugs you so strong, that you can't breathe or when your dad is crying (for the first time in his life!) listening to your vows at the altar. I do believe, that these un-staged moments are more meaningful than classy portraits on a sunset (but no worries, you'll plenty of both!) If you feel like we are on the same page - let's talk! Write me a few words about who you are, tell me your story and let's create something beautiful together!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are reading this, go book Dasha! The wedding photographer was the most important vendor for us. After talking to many photographers, we ended up booking Dasha and that's the best decision we've ever made. Through our engagement session, we got so comfortable in front of her camera and the photos turned out great. Ahead of the wedding, I had a final meeting with Dasha and you could tell that she cares about her couples and gives good advice on the timeline. On the wedding day, her professionalism and creativity made the day so easy for us, and we didn't need to give her a long shortlist because we trusted her. When we received the full gallery, we were so BLOWN AWAY. The editing style speaks for itself. We also loved the way she documented our special - it feels very natural and authentic. Many of our families and friends asked us who our photographer was, and we cannot recommend Dasha enough. Thank you, Dasha!!

Hi, I'm McKenna! The person behind the camera and a hopeless romantic. I describe my photography style as candid, romantic, and timeless. My goal is to make a human connection with all my clients and deliver images that you'll love forever. I started 1828 Collective in 2016 after I realized that capturing relationships and telling love stories was my passion. Four years later I'm so in love with my job that I often forget I'm working. I find joy in capturing love, hearing about how you met, and everything in between.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot express how incredibly thankful we were for choosing McKenna to capture our big day. McKenna was so friendly and charismatic from the start and she fit right into the craziness and chaos of our life without missing a beat. She was flexible and super communicative, especially when it rained on the day of our engagement photos, which really helped to calm our nerves and make the session comfortable and fun. She stepped right into the flow of things on our wedding day and kept everyone on schedule and in good spirits. The photos came back better than I could've imagined and our guests haven't stopped talking about them. To say that McKenna is talented would be an understatement and I'll certainly be asking her to capture the rest of our big life moments!

Hey babes, I'm Khali! I'm a wedding photographer based in Portland, Oregon capturing ALLLLL the love! I love candid, raw and authentic moments. My photography shouldn't feel posed or unnatural. It should be all about documenting you for who you really are; whatever your love language may be. I will always do everything I can to make sure your day is spectacular. Transparency is super important to me, so if you have any questions - just ask!

Working with Khali from KMT Photos during the styled shoot at Pelican Brewing - Siletz Bay was an absolute delight. Her communication was open, effortless, and collaborative, making the entire process smooth and enjoyable. The quality of her work was outstanding—her passion and keen attention to detail produced photographs that perfectly captured the beauty of the day. We highly recommend reaching out to Khali for your wedding!

Hi! I’m Jules. I like to think of myself as an artistic storyteller. I love capturing LOVE and have been a professional photographer for 12+ years (don’t let the baby face fool you). I want to know what makes you & your partner tick. Every couple is different & I love making your photos feel like YOU. (& for you to feel super hot, obv.) I would love to share full galleries with you and would be HONORED to create art with you on your dreamiest day! Storytelling is why I do this day in and day out. We don’t do boring over here ;)

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so so SO grateful we found Jules/Datura Photo to shoot our wedding. She did an incredible job capturing the emotions and the overall story of our day and we couldn’t be happier with ouyr wedding photos! We also utilized Jules for our videography and we are in love with our wedding video. You can really tell when you watch our video and look at our photos that we had a photographer who just loves love. She told our love story so beautifully. You can also tell that she knows so much about composition, lighting, etc. She does a great job with giving directions for where to stand and poses to do for those of us who know nothing about getting our picture taken. Not only is she an incredibly talented and gifted artist in her photography, but she is a total gem to work and spend the day with. She was also super communicative and professional throughout the entire process, went above and beyond and stayed late to get pics at our after party, and as an added bonus she was amazing with the kids in our wedding party and getting them to smile for the camera! We could literally go on and on about how amazing she was. We would highly recommend booking Datura Photo for any wedding, but especially if you want your photos to feel artsy, vintage, romantic, and emotional.

My main goal is to shoot weddings all over the world, so just pack me in your luggage I’m skinny and I'll try to fit.

Ra was awesome, we booked him for my engagement photoshoot. We spoke in advance and went over ideas for the day and then he went to it. he arrived on time and snapped away. he got views that we didn't even think of. he made the shoot go that much smoother. he has a great personality and great sense of humor which is why I’m laughing in most of the pictures. he also gave us so many ideas and stuff to do to look more natural instead of just telling us what to do. he was doing the pose first with his assistant to show us how it’s done and the tips and tricks to make it look natural. We appreciated all the knowledge that Ra brought! We can't thank him enough. he highlighted my dress and how big it was in certain poses which made my dress look just awesome and stunning. everyone loved the pictures and I’m just in love with this shot especially. thanks Ra again, definitely recommended.

I have 12 years of photography experience, 6 years in the industry and have shot more than 180 weddings. Safe to say, this IS my passion. Couples and wedding photography can be SO stressful--the pressure to look and be a certain way or follow trends is INTENSE. Wedding stress is real and I am anti it all the way. For my couples, they're job is just to show up and have fun. I will do ALL the rest!

Melissa is so creative and talented with a camera - she was able to compose beautiful shots that felt natural and unposed. Her flexibility was also greatly appreciated.

My husband and I had an amazing experience using AZ Wedding Photographer as our vendor for our recent wedding. We couldn't have been happier and they made the experience so easy! We worked along side Kelly and Cheryl for a year prior to our big day. They were very flexible and willing to work with us and provided us with reassurance and options when we realized our ceremony time was going to cause us to potentially miss our golden hour pictures. They put our minds at easy and redid our timeline multiple times to assure our day would go seamlessly! They excel in the area of Communication and they are very quick to respond to any messages that are sent. We chose to use Maddie as our Photographer based on her work and our budget and would use her over and over if we had the opportunity. Our wedding day was simply the best day and Maddie was phenomenal and so easy to work with! We've receiving our sneak peek pictures already and are in love with each one of them. We found the return time to get all pictures back to be quicker than many other photographers which was a nice bonus. Their payment plans are a great option for those couples trying to make it all happen by themselves, like my husband and I. They allowed us to make monthly payments up to the day of our wedding which was incredibly helpful. Do not hesitate to book AZ Wedding Photographer as your vendor!!! We have zero regrets and know you will too.

I’m Monica Cassell, and I’m on a mission to ensure your photos are really damn good. When you choose me as your photographer, you’re not just choosing another vendor who’ll punch in and punch out. Hell no. You’re choosing a comprehensive client experience. I prioritize spending time with you, getting to know you individually and as a couple, and serving you in this season through engagement photos, recommendations, and anything else you might need. By the time you run through the sparkler tunnel to your getaway car, we’ll be so close you might just ask me to come with you (JK, unless it’s Disneyworld).

The communication was great with Monica and Tyler. They let us know before hand what we were going to do and helped out a lot during photos with things that they didn’t have to help with. They gave great and fun vibes to us for our wedding and during wedding. They made us feel comfortable while doing photos and videos. I hired Monica and Tyler because of their professionalism and great work we seen online. We definitely would recommend them for a Wedding or a lifetime experience.
