Shutter & Sound 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves South Gate, CA

Hi! Courtney here (that's me on the left!). Shutter and Sound is the brainchild of renowned wedding videographer Ryan Geldermann. Ryan began his wedding videography career in 2010 in Los Angeles and quickly became recognized as one of the top videographers in the U.S.. After relocating to DC and still receiving countless inquiries from all corners of the country, Ryan decided to recruit and train a few talented friends so he could continue offering the quality wedding videography he’s known for in SoCal and eventually over 10 cities. Shutter and Sound is a very small group of filmmakers dedicated to turning your big day into a work of art.

I recently used Shutter & Sound for my wedding and they were fantastic! The team was super friendly and really skilled at capturing all the important moments without being intrusive. They worked seamlessly with our other vendors which made everything go smoothly. When we got our photos and videos back, we were blown away by the quality and how they managed to capture the feel of our special day perfectly. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch wedding photography and videography!

The Theodors were a great duo to work with. They were easy to book and to message. They are the type of people that you want to shoot any big important event of yours. They were both very friendly and soft spoken. Throughout the day, they were everywhere taking photos. I think they captured every possible moment of our wedding. They directed us perfectly to be able to capture all the beauty. Two weeks after our wedding they sent ALOT of photos as a sneak peek of what was to come. My wife and I loved every photo of our wedding that they have given us so far and are beyond excited to see the rest. Thank you Theodors for capturing the fun and excitement through your lense and allowing us to enjoy and reminisce for years to come.

Randall de Leon Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves South Gate, CA

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

We’ve been lucky to know and work with Randall for a few years. When we finally decided to make things “official” we knew we wanted someone that does great work, that we trust, and would make us feel comfortable. We wanted our day to feel like a relaxed family event and Randall helped with that and so much more. He suggested possible locations that would meet our dream event and times to maximize the best lighting for the area. Once we settled on the location and date, he maintained excellent communication in preparation to the event to properly flesh out the day’s timetable, day of logistics, and post. On the day of our wedding he expertly directed us and our families, using the natural lighting to capture the perfect shots. We would have been lost without him, especially since no one knew how to assist with bustling my dress. During our dinner reception he seamlessly directed restaurant staff to assist in transitioning between meals/dessert/toast for more amazing shots. After the wedding he kept us updated on next steps for our pictures. Randall is truly a gem and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone special to capture their day.

I’m Adam—a Boston native who’s now roaming around California photographing everything I see. When I’m not behind the camera you can usually find me in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes, sipping a dirty martini with friends, jamming to Taylor Swift in the car, or taking my rescue pup Ollie to the park or on long neighborhood walks. I got my first film camera when I was 8, and it was love at first sight. Capturing your story is more than just a job for me. From destination elopements to parties of the century, I've seen it all and love every minute of a wedding day.

I'm a CA based and travel wedding photographer. I've photographed almost 200 weddings, and every single one goes by so quickly.

Holly Castillo Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From the beginning, Holly's communication was quick and easy, making the planning process stress-free.

We are incredibly grateful Xenia was our engagement/wedding photographer and couldn't be happier with the results! The photos will speak to her technical talent; her professionalism and dedication to her craft are evident in every shot. It was so hard for me to only select 6 photos. What the images don't explicitly show is that Xenia was an absolute joy to work with. She is clear, transparent, and helpful in her communication. Her straightforward and friendly communication ensured we were always on the same page and felt supported throughout the process. While shooting, she is organized and efficient. We got every shot we hoped for and then some. Her enthusiasm and joy were infectious. She made these two awkward nerds feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. We cannot recommend Xenia enough! We will cherish the photos you took forever!

Hi I'm Carmelisse. I'm an intimate wedding & elopement photographer based in Los Angeles. I have a gift for making people comfortable and seeing the beauty in all diverse people. I want nothing more than to tell your love story right.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Carmelisse was a dream come true! She did both our engagement and wedding photos. With all of the ups and downs of planning a wedding during Covid, she made the process seamless with her communication and informative emails. Which was greatly appreciative. I was contacting several photographers who just sent “links” that didn’t say much. Which I feel at the beginning stages of a planning a wedding , information is important, and Carmelisse understands that, and gives you all needed details. She came highly recommend from three people (and they were absolutely right)! She did amazing at not just capturing “posed” shots, but the “candid” moments. The photos we never knew we needed, yet are absolutely grateful for. For the engagement shot, it was myself, my husband and our active four year old son! Carmelisse rolled with not only our awkwardness but the wildness of us chasing our son around. She found a way to balance us out and capture the love in every moment. On our wedding day, she knocked it out the park! Every guest and family member was raving about Carmelisse and her team! She was efficient, kind, professional and fun! She out did herself with accomplishing our “Hollywood glam” look and capturing everyone in there best moments! Another big thing, I love about Carmelisse is her delivery of photos, she sticks to her timeline that she gives, and her presentation of photos is not only beautiful, but organized (which made it easy to navigate). Thankful for everything that Carmelisse brought to the table with her experience! She is a 10/10!

While some photographers emphasize their gear or trendy post-processing, I take pride in subject-photographer interaction - the relation I build with clients, picking up on nuances in pose and expression while we shoot, anticipating the viewers' response - because ultimately, that's how photographs that matter to us are created.

Gabbie Burseth grew up documenting everything and saving mementos in empty Christmas boxes. After studying at the Grady School of Journalism at the University of Georgia, she discovered an affinity for weddings and their accompanying treasures. Her philosophy as a wedding photographer is to observe with as little interference as possible — no faking it, no do-overs, no “for the camera”. Her biggest desire is for couples to be present at their wedding, not stuck in a photoshoot. Her work is punctuated by rich and vibrant color, the timeless quality of analog film, and a sense of humor found in fleeting moments.

She works in both digital and film mediums and her work has been featured in publications including Martha Stewart Weddings, Destination I Do and Brides.

Awarded Best of Zola
Since receiving our wedding photos from Jess, several of my friends and family members (including 2 professional photographers!) have asked me for her contact info because of how amazing her photos are!! When we started looking for a wedding photographer, we knew that we needed to find someone with a great eye for candids, who wouldn't make our pictures feel too staged, who had a fun/funky vibe like us, and who could handle wrangling my extremely large family (full of very opinionated people) for family photos, and Jess handled everything with ease! I feel so lucky that we found Jess, and I cannot recommend her more. Jess made everyone feel comfortable throughout the entire wedding day, and even gave guidance to family members who are normally awkward in photos (e.g. suggesting ways to pose to make them more comfortable). Jess went above and beyond throughout the entire planning process, checking in with us, getting to know us, and even coming to a venue walkthrough so she could get a sense of the space! I am so grateful for all of the work Jess put into our wedding, and the photos turned out better than I could have ever imagined. I rarely even like photos of myself, but I honestly am so in love with the ones that Jess took that I jump on every opportunity to whip out my phone and share them with friends!

My name is Zyaire Porter and I am the photographer of Porterhouse LA Weddings. Born & raised in Los Angeles, I have been capturing weddings professionally since 2013. I have been #TeamNikon since the beginning and currently shoot with the Z9 + Z7. I answer every email myself (no bots or assistants).

Awarded Best of Zola
Porterhouse LA did a fantastic job photographing our wedding. Zyaire was artistic, punctual, and precise. We received our photos very quickly after the wedding, and are absolutely in love with them. We’ll treasure these for the rest of our lives, and have had so much joy from sharing them with others. The comments we’ve received have all been about how beautiful the wedding looked, how good everyone looked, and how gorgeous the photos were overall, which is exactly what we were hoping for. Zyaire met with us over Zoom twice before the actual wedding, and took every one of our concerns and questions seriously. He had a good answer to everything, and it convinced us that we were dealing with a consummate professional. We also asked him to shoot our welcome party for guests, and he was able to oblige with that, as well. We first met him in person for the welcome party, and he was already there when we arrived, getting background shots of the venue. This was something we hadn’t even considered, but it was really valuable - having shots of the venue, and the venue for our wedding, helped put the other photos in context for people who weren’t able to attend, and gave us mementos of the locations themselves.

Photography is my creative dream come true and it is so incredibly special to be able to capture memories that other people will love and cherish for many, many years. Around high school, I found out for myself how important these memories were. Not just the ones I was creating currently but the ones that I couldn’t get back. I would look back on these photos and think, "I remember how happy I was that day." "Aww, my little brother was so tiny then!" Or even, "What was I thinking when I wore that outfit??" These little snippets of time carried such a significance for me that I wanted other people to feel that way about their memories, too.

My wife and I had an intimate destination wedding in New Orleans and Amanda was an absolute blessing for us! She arrived in a city that she had never been in and made our wedding photos look like they were shot by someone who had lived there their whole life. New Orleans is like a second home to me and she found locations to shoot that I didn’t even know about. I was was very nervous on the big day and Amanda put me at ease, made everyone laugh, and blended in like a member of the family. She went above and beyond in creating images and photo opportunities that went above my highest expectations. One of my favorite was images from that day is a photo of my wife and me while we waited for the St Charles streetcar to take us from Audubon Park to our reception. The streetcars had stopped running for a while and Amanda saw this gorgeous ray of golden light hit this solitary stone bench. Amanda said, “quick!” and had run over, sit down, look Into each other’s eyes while seated there on the bench. The lighting was tremendous and it captured our love perfectly. Thank you Amanda for not only capturing our wedding, but for capturing our personalities, our style, and our love for one another! You are the best!

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.

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.

Welcome. I'm D e r e c k. I've been doing photography and videography since 2017. It wasn't until the pandemic of last year that I decided to take a leap of faith and make it a full-time career. I feel like I've always had a burning passion for photography and editing, I love photography because it captures a moment in time. Whether that moment is your wedding day or an annual family portrait, pictures enable us to relive and remember special occasions again + again. Why I specifically dove into Wedding Photography? Simple!! My love for creativity and seeing passionate couples that aren't afraid to show their personalities

Dereck Davis Photography was a joy to work with for our wedding photography. Dereck has an incredibly friendly, welcoming, and fun communication style that put me at ease, as I'm usually shy and awkward posing for photos. His artistic eye and casual style resulted in gorgeous, natural-looking photos that perfectly captured the laidback vibe of our wedding day. Even during more orchestrated moments like the family portraits, Dereck kept things upbeat and moving smoothly. His easy-going manner encouraged everyone to relax and enjoy themselves rather than stress about getting the perfect shot. Our wedding photos are stunning yet look effortless due to Dereck's ability to work with the existing lighting and scenery. We felt like we were hanging out with a close friend rather than posing stiffly for a photographer. I wholeheartedly recommend Dereck for wedding photography - his beautiful, joyful images will help you remember the love and delight of your special day for years to come.

Magaly was the best photographer I could have had for my wedding! I truly have not a single negative thing to say and would love to just enthusiastically encourage anyone to book her. Her communication was thorough, she regularly set up appointments to meet, discuss expectations, and check-in. She also sent regular information emails with advice and recommendations. On the day she was early, thorough, checked in with me regularly, easy to work with, and just a calming presence to have for the day. She really moved with the flow and was all over the place capturing everything she could. I asked for several specific pictures or things that I was looking for, and she got everything. My pictures are beautiful, I keep looking at them and getting emotional. I received sneak peeks within 72 hours and was surprised how many she already had ready! Everything I could have asked for and more, Magaly did. She took extra steps to ensure that our day was wonderful and I just appreciate her so much.

We greatly appreciated his commitment to do his job in the best possible way he can. He is truly talented with his ideas and we absolutely love that there is not this unrealistic editing. I think another great thing he does it he kind of just flows and camouflages as you don’t really realize he’s there but the photos show that he was definitely capturing moments that you may not have noticed, but will be so grateful to see. It’s very natural. It’s very nice . He was awesome, he even stayed a tad past his allotted leaving time at my wedding to make sure that he got the best shots for us . It was very easy with him very laxed and didn’t feel. like a stranger from the beginning, it was very comfortable and I knew that he was the perfect person to choose I highly recommend Michael services for any photo session you require.

Your experience with me starts long before you step in front of my lens. I take the time and energy to get to know you & your story, so that I can capture the parts of your relationship that are authentically YOU. So that you can look back on the photos from this season of life, and feel like you're right back in that moment, feeling those same feels. To me, a perfectly posed & still photograph doesn't capture a feeling the way that a candid one can. I direct my couples to create images that are full of movement and those intimate in-between moments.

I knew I was in great hands with Shelby the moment we first met! Working with Shelby as a fellow vendor has been nothing short of a seamless experience. She loves connecting with her couples on a personal level and makes her shoots interactive so that the couples feel comfortable and confident on camera. She has little tricks up her sleeve that creates super candid moments!! I trust her fully when I recommend her as a planner. Her attention to detail and eye for the perfect lighting make photographing with Shelby a breeze. Hire Shelby to photograph your wedding, maternity shoot, branding shoot, and more! She is a superstar!

My family used to complain about the 100's of pictures I captured and how many rolls of film I used. Now, I look back at pictures from 10+ years ago, and see the beauty of "stopping time" in photos and keeping them forever. I see how it brings happiness to the people around me and myself. Nothing makes me happier than people looking back at precious memories. I can't wait to extend this experience to you and create an everlasting memory that you can carry for years to follow.
