Image In Love Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves San Ysidro, CA

I'm in love with taking photos and I spend all of my time working on fine-tuning my photography but also getting deeper than just taking photos. I am taking photos with the purpose now more than ever. Its been my years of experience that has helped me develop my photography into art and not just a picture taker. From the moment I meet my clients, I want to know as much as I can. Getting closer to a client really transcends into the photographs I am taking of them and their special day.

Toby has done my daughter’s newborn photos and other Christmas time photos of our family. He always makes us feel so comfortable. Recently he did our family photos again and we tried a new venue - the beach. The outcome brought me to tears! I was so impressed with his ability to get our daughter’s personality and to capture the moments of love between us. It is truly endearing and memories we will cherish for a lifetime.

After 10 years of marriage, the memories from our special day have slowly faded. With weddings going by in a flash, it's nearly impossible to commit it all to memory and with time, it will fade. The work we do, the memories we capture will last you a lifetime. We know that decades from now you will be flipping through your photo album or watching your wedding video; overflowing with love and joy. Knowing this is what motivates us!

Gleimlight did such a great job with our engagement photos, wedding photos and our wedding video. Everytime they sent photos I was always so extremely happy with their final products. They were sooo fast getting the images back to us too. They even would send me a sneak peek photo, which was so great to get. They really care and are so easy to work with. We didnt know the first thing about how to pose for photos and they told us exactly what we needed to do to make for great photos. I highly recommend them!

Lulan’s creativity has led to his path beyond most conventional definitions. He has won 25+ wedding photography awards, named the Best Wedding Photographer in Los Angeles; while acquired advance degree in immunology and medicine from UCLA.

Awarded Best of Zola
We found Lulan Studios about nine months before our wedding day. We were immediately drawn in by their professionalism and their reputation. Lulan is an inclusive photographer who was very receptive to our wedding vision. He and his team were incredibly kind, supportive, and helpful all throughout the process. We elected to go with Lulan Wang himself for our photographer who worked with an associate. After our initial consultation we were turned over to Shannon who was our go to contact for day to day clarifications and vendor contact until Lulan took over just before the wedding. Shannon was immensely resourceful and responsive. She communicated with our coordinator very efficiently and was always on top of our booking. We are very grateful to her as well for making the process so easy and for continuing that communication after the fact. On the day, Lulan and his associate were spectacular. It was clear his associate had more than enough talent for the job just like Lulan, but they divided and concurred by using two different types of cameras for different types of shots. We regret not doing an engagement session with them, but we will likely return for an Anniversary session in the future. We didn’t even need one though, because he is skilled enough that he understood us as a couple immediately. They made us feel comfortable and confident. They hyped us up and moved through the shot list masterfully. Nothing was missed and we captured far more than we expected. Please look through our attached photos as they speak for themselves. One of the most exciting moments was when Lulan handed us a little blue book filled with about fifteen physically printed preview photos DURING THE RECEPTION. A lovely surprise that absolutely shocked me. Turnover was 4-6 weeks and we got ours just before the six week mark right on schedule. We were floored. They are jaw-dropping. We ultimately got 950 photos permanently digitally available for high resolution download and access to a shop with impressive options for prints and albums of a wide array of types and sizes. I’m thrilled to show them to you here and implore you to consider booking Lulan Studios. We trusted in their ability from the beginning and we were not disappointed. They are among if not the absolute best in the business.

I’ve been happily married for almost 27 years. I have three awesome sons. My parakeets Kiwi and Sparky are very social, meaning very loud! Champagne (maybe that’s why I love weddings) and sushi lover here! Photography has been my passion ever since my dad gave me my first film camera and introduced me to the dark room at age of 10.

I love hats and want to wear them everyday (over 20 hats in my collection). I’ve been shooting beautiful weddings for almost 10 years. I secretly cry at every wedding.

Kristen has long been our go to photographer I’m San Diego, CA. From maternity, to newborn, and even large group family photos we have always felt at ease and comfortable working with her. Not only does Kristen put everybody at ease, but she laughs, coaches, and encourages along the way. Flashback to 2012 when 23 year old Nina and 28 year old Brian decided to get married after knowing each other for 6 months, we did so quietly, secretly, and without the love and support we needed. We had always said we would do a ceremony and time seemed to be slipping by with constant military deployments, two adorable boys, and family heath concerns. In Jan 2022 we decided we had to do it on our 10 year anniversary in March. If you can’t tell spontaneity is kind of our thing. Before we secured the venue or picked our attire we called Kristen, we knew that not only would she be able to capture our day and energy perfectly but also help us with the details. Kristen helped guide our decisions in outfits, flowers, where we would stand for Vows, and made sure day of we got pictures with every person. The day was perfect, every person there was free to be themselves, including the kids, and Kristen was able to capture the beautiful unique energy of ever being.

Jenni and her team did a phenomenal job capturing our wedding day. We felt so comfortable from the moment we first met with her and that definitely translated to how easy it felt taking direction from her for our wedding day photos. Her team took time to get to know us and figure out what we were comfortable with so it felt natural (we're not the most comfortable in front of the camera but somehow she figured out how to get those sweet in the moment shots without it feeling forced!). The photos turned out stunning. From the formal portraits to our mountain top vows to the sweetest candids she captured of me and my dad and my adorable nieces and nephews there’s seriously so many amazing photos to choose from. I also appreciated how organized she was with our formal portrait list keeping it quick and everyone ready to move through those as soon as possible. Cannot recommend her enough.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the pleasure of working with Linda for our elopement, and she exceeded all expectations in every way possible. From the moment we booked her, the process was incredibly easy and user-friendly. The booking system was straightforward, and I immediately felt confident in our choice. Her communication throughout the entire process was exceptional. She was in constant touch with us, especially when it came to the venue. Not only did she provide guidance and suggestions, but she also took the initiative to visit the site earlier in the week to scout locations with the best lighting and backdrops. Her attention to detail made the day go smoothly. Our elopement took an unexpected turn when it ended up being filmed for the news, causing us to go overtime. Despite the extended hours, Linda stayed well past her scheduled time and even took stunning photos of our interviews. Her dedication to capturing every moment, even the unplanned ones, was above and beyond. With her extensive experience with elopements, particularly at the San Diego courthouse, she had a deep understanding of the best timing and locations for photos, which made everything flow effortlessly. Her knowledge truly helped us maximize our time and get the most out of our special day. On top of her professionalism and expertise, she was a delight to work with. She brought a warm and calm energy to the day, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Her price point was also very reasonable for the level of service she provided. Without a doubt, I would book her again for any future events and highly recommend her to all my friends. If you're looking for a skilled, dedicated, and genuinely wonderful photographer for your elopement, Jalea Photography is the one!

Hello! I'm Natalie, a passionate documentary photographer dedicated to capturing the authentic and heartfelt moments of your special day. My approach to wedding photography is all about storytelling. I believe the most beautiful photos come from genuine, unscripted moments that reflect the true emotions and unique story of each individual couple.

I’m always inspired by the beauty of everyday moments and bring this inspiration into my work.

She really helps pose you and feel comfortable and before you know it you’re posing on your own. The confidence really shows in her images. My husband and I couldn’t be more happy with our photos! Can’t wait to work with her again, would recommend to all of my friends!

Hi there! I'm Sam, a laid-back, down to earth gal! My love for photography started at a very young age. I thrive off of connecting with amazing people and creating beautiful visual art. I'm a 'go with the flow', free-spirited human. I am based in San Diego but travel all over the USA and world to capture stunning weddings. Travel is encouraged! I love visiting Miami, New York, Chicago, Las Vegas, San Fransisco, and other major cities in America. So excited to connect with you and create some stunning photographs that will last a lifetime!

Sam was one of the first vendors that we booked, and from the intro call, Sam was so kind and communicative with all of our questions. She walked us through her process, editing style and expectations from her, and answered all of our questions no problem. She made it easy to book and was so excited to work with us as well. From there she was happy to answer any of our questions and touched base with us leading up to the event till the day of. She showed up very professional but was still her kind self and didn’t hesitate to step up to help us find the best shots for bridal portraits, first looks, and more. She had no problem wrangling our families for photos, and blended in so well in some instances to get the shot. She helped us get photos with every single person at our wedding, and even led the line dances for our guests. Then when it came time to get our photos back, I was BLOWN AWAY by her editing style and hand picked photos to send back to us. You can tell that she is passionate about all of her work from being behind the camera to editing. She went above and beyond her contract and duties, and truly was so instrumental to capturing our day for us, as every time I look at our photos, I feel the emotion she captured from them. Sam is an absolute must for photography and editing!

I’m a small town girl living in the big city of San Diego. You know the saying, “Home is where the heart is?” For me it has two meanings. If home is a physical place, mine is the magical little town where I was born – Ojai, California. It is a place where people can breathe deep and feel the wholeness of their lives. It's a magical little valley of peace happiness. If home is truly where the heart is, then mine is my family. In 2016, I married my best friend and the father of our beautiful son and daughter. We are a squad of awesomeness and those three hold my heart in the palm of their hands.

I have worked with Morgan on multiple occasions and her ability to seamlessly flow through the day while being a photographer, constant helper, and team player is unmatched!

I was raised in the Sierra Nevada foothills of California. I was drawn to photography in middle school and would enter photos of our family pets or family backpacking trips in our local county fair. My passion for photography grew while working as a hiking guide in Yosemite National Park. I mean… who wouldn’t want a stunning photo of Half Dome? El Capitan? Yosemite Falls? But it has been photographing wedding and couples that I find the most fun and rewarding. I have found loving hearts, wild souls, and adventurous spirits to be my people. I strive to visually capture the “spirit” of my subjects and record an emotional memory of the occasion.

We had an incredible experience with Salt & Sol Studios. Adrianna and her team were excellent right from the start.

Adrianna was excellent at directing everyone so we could get all our photos done and stay on schedule. Her calm presence helped keep everyone light hearted so we could maintain a fun celebratory atmosphere during photos. We got our album very promptly and the photos looked absolutely incredible. Adrianna worked very closely with us to make sure we got all our needs met for ordering thank you notes, framed photos, and creating our wedding album. We greatly appreciated her professionalism and the extra time and care she spent to capture our wedding day.

I have traveled and photographed weddings and engagement shoots all over the country including internationally. I still get nervous before every wedding I photograph. If I didn’t have nervous tension, I probably would have lost the drive and passion for what I love doing the most. The reason for my love of wedding photography is simple: I love spending the day with brides and grooms creating wedding day memories that will last a lifetime. I hunt for moments that cannot be recreated or relived. I love capturing the raw emotion of a wedding day. I want to be the best not only for myself but especially for my clients.

After getting married, we combined our businesses to create one where we not only get to continue doing what we love, but get to do it together. Whether it's a local wedding in San Diego or traveling to gorgeous spots like the European countryside, we would love for you to come along for the journey!

Bree was such an amazing photographer to work with! She made sure I was getting the videos that I needed as she was her photos. Working with her made the day go so smooth and we got what we needed in a timely fashion! I’ve never had a photographer that was this easy to work with!

We hired Studio Vieren for our wedding day and it was the best decision we made! We can't say enough good things about Tara. From beginning to end — Tara was warm, kind, attentive, and truly passionate about her art and work. It is evident that she cares so much about what she does, as well as the couples she works with. She gives her all to ensure a truly wonderful and special experience. To begin, our consultation with her went amazingly. As soon as we started speaking with her, there was no question that she would be the artist to capture our wedding day. Not only was she a great listener (often later remembering the tiniest detail mentioned during this initial meeting that took place before we even hired her), but the love she has for making wedding days beautiful shone through. We initially found her and were captivated by her cinematic, warm, romantic, and in-the-moment style, and we were only further convinced to hire her by her lovely personality and the passion she showed us in that initial consultation. Once we hired her, Tara only kept impressing us. Throughout the entire planning process, she was always organized, prepared, detail-oriented, available, and creative. Every step of the process was clearly outlined for us and she always put our needs first while ensuring she would be able to deliver the vision we were hoping for. On the wedding day, Tara was nothing short of an angel. Not only did she excel in her own role as documentarian extraordinaire, but she also stepped up to help us navigate the day when our day-of-coordinator wasn't meeting expectations. She went above and beyond — making us feel taken care of and at ease (as much as a bride can be on her wedding day, haha). So many of our guests even went out of their way to tell us how outstanding they thought she was. She showed an unwavering commitment to ensuring that our day was unforgettable. And once we received the photos and film (which she delivered in a timely manner) — just wow! Everything turned out so beautifully. Tara captured our wedding day (the big and little moments alike) with so much warmth and magic. Seeing her incredible work allowed my husband and I to relive the day, and appreciate and love it more than we thought we could. Tara has such a gift and we can't thank her enough for everything she did for us.

It's not just about capturing the grandeur of a wedding. What truly drives me is the opportunity to connect with people who are in love. There's something magical about witnessing the bond between two individuals who have chosen to embark on this incredible journey together. The way their eyes light up when they look at each other, the subtle gestures of affection, and the unspoken emotions that flow through the day—all of these elements inspire me to create images that reflect the authenticity and depth of their love.

Not only was he highly professional but also collaborated seamlessly with both myself, the couple and their families. His photos were truly incredible!

John was our photographer for our wedding (and all wedding festivities) and captured so many special photos of my now husband and I! He truly cares about executing what your vision is. He never made me feel like I was too detail-oriented or particular, and I can definitely be overly-detailed at times! haha. He is truly committed to pleasing his clients. Not only that, but the post wedding experience of designing the layout of my wedding book has been fun instead of what could have been confusing and overwhelming. He has extreme patience and helped me create the layout for my very extensive wedding album, as well assisted in communication with an awesome leather craftsman company to design the custom cover. I feel like the wedding book is sometimes a thing that couples don’t get to, and then it never gets done, so the ease of that process made me so happy I went with John. Now my family and I will be able to cherish the wedding photos in one beautiful album to display at our house.
