I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

Why have a wedding day coordinator, when you can have Kristy??? I hired Kristy knowing the work would be phenomenal, but did not know how she ran the show! I had a day of coordinator who was also my florist. Girl, was no where to be found when I needed her and asked me too many question day of that I repeated told her to ask my made of honor. When Kristy showed up, Kristy had a plan and activated the plan. Her timing was down to a T! She made friends with the other vendors, kept everyone on a schedule, and helped me feel utterly calm on a stressful day. HIRE. KRISTY. Her quality is great, delivery is timely, and she knows the workings of your day no matter how simple to complex your wedding day is.

Kristina Lee Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,700
  • Serves Solvang, CA

Born in the desert (AZ Baby!) and relocated to the sea. I firmly believe that a good day starts with a cup of coffee and ends with glass of red wine. I own more jewelry than I do clothes and in my opinion, too much gold does not exist. My biggest passion will always be photography. I’ve had a camera in my hands since I was a little girl – I would even set up “stylized shoots” in my family’s living room that consisted of sheets pinned to the wall, my friends and fake flowers (embarrassing, but I’m not kidding!). I strive for those editorial, Vogue-like shots, but I really live for those private, in-between moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
After being engaged for 2 years without any real wedding plans confirmed, my fiancé and I finally found a venue and set a date, 2 months out. With a short window to find vendors, the photographer was going to be the most critical. I was using Zola for general wedding inspo & invitations, so I did a quick search for photographers and came across Kristina Lee Photography. I didn’t have much time to contemplate, I had to make decisions quickly. I reached out to Kristina and scheduled a call with her the very next day. My first question was to make sure she was available on our wedding date…she was. We got to talking and she was extremely personable and easy to talk through the details of our wedding. It was a bonus that she had shot at our venue previously and she knew all the great spots for amazing photos. On the day of our wedding, Kristina fit right into my bridal party. We chatted all things Scandoval, while taking amazing pictures of our entire bridal party including our furbaby, Carlos. My fiancé and I never took engagement photos, so we didn’t really know what to expect when taking our post ceremony photos. Kristina directed us and knew exactly how to capture the most amazing moments of our day. She made us feel comfortable, sexy and so in love. All of our photos came out amazing! She sent us a few photos in a couple days and we were able to download the entire collection within 8 weeks. I am so happy that we had the opportunity to work with Kristina. She was professional, shot amazing photos and we had fun working with her! Thank you Kristina for capturing the best moments of our wedding day. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Kristina for photo shoots in the future.

Real Connections. Raw Emotions. Candid Moments. 

 These are the values behind what we do. These three words are the heart and soul of our work and everything we do is based around adventure and authenticity. When you hire us, you are hiring photographers who truly care about the experience you will have on your day. We don’t mind getting a little dirty or wet. We don’t mind staying until after dark to get the perfect shot. We don’t mind the hikes, or the time in-between each event. We are truly there for you and to tell the story of your day exactly as it happens

I don’t even know where to begin to express how much we loved Candance and her husband Corey. My husband doesn’t easily warm up to new people, and he especially hates being the center of attention and hates taking photos. Both of the photographers made each of us feel so comfortable. We really felt like we had a great connection with them. Our engagement photos and our wedding photos are above and beyond what we could have hoped for. They are absolutely a work of art and you can tell that they love what they do. We absolutely believe that this team was meant to be a part of our lives and our big day. Even our wedding party told us how cool the photographers were. Thank you so much for being a part of our dream. We love you

I’m a husband to my high school sweetheart, I’m a dad to three gorgeous little girls, and I love my city of Costa Mesa, CA. Me in a nutshell...good coffee, bacon, and whiskey are my jam. A perfect day off consists of a mountain bike ride, some tacos, and swimming in our pool with my wife and daughters. I spent over 8 years in jobs that sucked the life out of me, but now I have one that breathes life back into me. You see, photography is not my identity…but it's definitely an extension of how I was created to see life. And I got into capturing meaningful moments because I am all about the life behind the moment, not just the event.

I'm a destination wedding & elopement photographer. I was born and raised in Rhode Island but I spend most of my time on flights documenting beautiful love stories all over the world. As a child all, I can remember was carrying around one of those Fujifilm cameras and taking photos of family and friends. Fast forward to 2017, I decided to take my hobby of photography seriously. Here I am years later running my business full-time & I love what I do. Capturing the raw moments and being the one to capture memories that you will look back on years to come.

Sheila Torres Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the beginning, Sheila was incredibly responsive, effective, and understanding of our needs and vision. Her communication style put us at ease throughout the process. The quality of her work is simply stunning - the photos are bright, vibrant, and of the highest quality. Sheila made sure our wishes were met at every turn, from helping us create an epic fantasy engagement shoot to ensuring we got photos of every family member we wanted. As photography was so important to us, Sheila exceeded our expectations and captured more special moments than we could have hoped for. We are thrilled with the end result and highly recommend Sheila Torres Photography to any couple planning their wedding.

As your photographer, I prioritize truly getting to know you as a couple, offering guidance and support throughout your wedding day. My goal is to capture those intimate, fleeting moments—the ones you might forget in the whirlwind, like your grandmother’s tears as you walk down the aisle or your best friend’s belly laugh after the best man’s speech. Together, we create a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere that lets your genuine emotions and connections shine through. I don't just freeze moments; I capture the essence of your emotions. With careful attention to detail, I weave these real moments into a visual story that goes beyond the ordinary.

Emilie is the sweetest soul ever. I was a very indesicive person when it came to outfits for engagement pictures and she was so helpful in deciding what would photograph best. She feels like a friend and hype woman and not a photographer. She helped us pose perfectly and it was more of a fun time. We chit chatted and talked about my fiancés and I’s relationship prior to the session so she knew everything she needed too and more. I want to get margs and chips and queso with her. She is seriously the most loving person who wants to make sure that your photos are how you want them and that they look gorgeous. I will be doing all my couple photography with her going forward and I can’t wait to support her more. Emilie is the best. Book with her and you will NOT regret it!!

Eli Holmes Photo + Film

  • Editorial style

  • Serves Solvang, CA

Film brought art back to photography — having control over the film stock, using particular cameras for different reasons, doing double exposures with film blindly, souping film and customizing the development process to the wedding, and so much more. And through film, I embrace the imperfections of weddings — following along with your flow of the day and natural interactions of your friends and family. Capturing your wedding story as it happens is always the priority and focus.

We were going to go with an off island photographer when we came across Eli and their work. Their knowledge of the island, how the wind blows differently on different sides of our venue, how the light hits perfectly on this side of the venue and we can still get an ocean view — that they care about the power lines and know how to avoid cars in the back of ceremony images. The list just went on and on and on. Working with Eli was like working with a walking encyclopedia of Block Island. And when you're getting married on the island, it's such an asset. Eli helped walk us through other on island vendors, best spots for our engagement sessions, different hotels that might suite certain guests better than others, an amazing casual rehearsal dinner/welcome party idea that was flawless, and I just couldn't be happier. When we got the images though, I didn't know what to say. Eli had captured so much of our story, we felt the same jitters getting ready to walk down the aisle looking through images of moments we didn't. get to experience on our wedding day (we were a little busy, getting married, and you just can't witness everything). Eli was so great with our friends and family, able to choral a few of my drunk groomsmen, while simultaneously making my antsy family members just super at ease and happy. I couldn't be happier in working with Eli and can't wait to see them in future years when we visit.

A true artist at heart, Danielle has spent over twenty-five years behind a camera. For over a decade she has specialized in recording couples and families in some of their most joyous moments. Utilizing both digital and film, she documents not only the major moments, but the minor moments, too, that sometimes go amiss: the grandmother gazing fondly at the new generation. The proud tearful eyes of a parent watching as their child embarks on an exciting new chapter. Big or small, with her trained eye Danielle captures every brushstroke to fully realize the memory of your special day.

We hired Danielle for our elopement, and by the end of the day, it felt like she was a close friend. Then we got the photos — WOW. We will truly cherish this forever.

My goal as a photographer is to not only authentically capture your story in a natural way but to also create fine art; that you will cherish and treasure for years to come.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Nicole Henshaw! Our wedding at the top of Four Points Resort in Steamboat Springs, Colorado was nothing short of magical, and Nicole played a huge part in making it so. From the moment she arrived, she was attentive, professional, and incredibly communicative with both the bridal party and our families. She helped us capture moments we would have never thought to ask for, and her attention to detail was impeccable. Nicole made sure that every key moment was covered from start to finish- ceremony, reception, and the after-party that lasted well into the evening. Her ability to read the room and know exactly what to capture at each moment was astonishing- especially because we didn’t know every detail of what to ask for. Her intuitiveness, creativity, and beautiful eye for photography are so evident in every shot we received back. We are beyond grateful to have had her as our photographer and would recommend her in a heartbeat! Thank you, Nicole, for helping us relive the magic of our special day through your incredible work!

Working with The Shalom Imaginative was one of the best investments we made for our wedding day. The way they capture moments are unlike any other. I look at my images and see the story unfolding all over again. From the little details, big moments and everything in between, I look at these images regularly and instantly relive the adventure all over again. Their aesthetic is one that will not disappoint. I am so grateful for the real connection that happened through these moments and the forever friends that The Shalom Imaginative have come to be.

Photography is more than a skill; it's a way of seeing the world. I find magic in the ordinary and fleeting moments. Every image is an opportunity to share my perspective and invite others to see the world through my eyes. I want to capture the emotions, the stories, and the atmospheres that surround each photograph. Through my work, I want to trigger memories that will bring you back to feeling the moment.

I cannot say enough good words about @eastonstudios! The clear and consistent communication on how much each package would and what each included was extremely helpful. Nancy was very kind, patient, and not pushy at all with wanting us to choose options. The entire time working with her was pleasant-before, during, and after the wedding. She was on time and communicated how she would start and end the photos for the package we chose. The photos are absolutely gorgeous! I am so proud of each and every memory that she caught-especially extra surprise of close ups and different decor and activities throughout the wedding. She has a gift for getting the right shot at the most perfect time. The photos take me back to my wedding day, that I can relive each time I see them. If you hire Nancy for your wedding photos and or video, you will get the best memories to look back on!

California native, PNW resident, coffee drinker, dog scritcher, friend, forward-thinker, designer. I hate having my photo taken (go figure), my dog Boone makes me laugh every day, and I thrive off of honest, intentional conversations. I’ve worked as a photographer for over 8 years and I know that half the job is connecting with people and offering them an experience, not just a gallery. I believe you have to feel comfortable with the person behind the camera before you can let go and fully be yourself in front of it.

Becky has always been a delight to work with and a relief to know the events she's working with us on. She is always early for the parties and stays as late as needed to get all the best pictures. Her work is always stunning and very artistic, she has a great eye for finding and capturing new secret spots for pictures some of which we did not even know existed. She is very professional and we always hear from clients how much they enjoyed spending the day with her. I will frequently tell couples to make sure they like their vendors, especially their photographers, because if they don't, it will show on their faces, to no surprise Becky is a frequent vendor selection.

Together we will create photographic memories that will never be forgotten.

We used Rachel for our engagement photos and wedding, and she was a total pro! Not only are her photos absolutely stunning, but she is excellent at what she does. She helped keep the timeline of the day going and helped us with the finer details. She is very efficient while not sacrificing quality. She also helps you feel at ease with everything, which is super important on such a crazy day!

As a wedding photographer, I get to capture those fleeting, special moments that make each couple's love story unique. With over 4 + years of experience, I blend artistry with technical skill to create images that are not only beautiful but deeply meaningful.

5 STAR REVIEW! We had such an amazing experience with Prest1ge Photography! It was a toasty, sunny, fast-paced wedding day, and Caleb remembered to do all the shots we had asked for, and many more at a comfortable pace. Time flew and we went longer than expected, but he was gracious, easy to work with, and didn't allow anything to stress him out. Choosing Prest1ge was the best decision we could have made!

Between the big parties, big loud italian and portguese families and all the photos I wanted and asked of her even at the last minute she was calm and professional and helped me stay grounded in the chaos.

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.
