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

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Kristen was a total professional. My wife, Claire, and I were nervous as we embarked on our wedding journey. It was full of deadlines and getting everything ready for our big day.

From our first meeting at Little Club in Coronado for our wonderful engagement photos to our big day, Kristen was so easy to work with and helped capture all of the heartfelt moments while making them memorable by just being herself. You can't go wrong with Kristen and you will enjoy as she becomes an important person on your most special day.

They are so insanely skilled at their craft, Renee knows exactly how to capture every moment. Having them both there at our wedding truly made Dylan and I feel so at ease. They were so helpful, they went above and beyond. They made sure Dylan and I were good the entire time, they were constantly checking on the two of us asking if we needed anything(water, food etc). When we need photos we will make the drive out to California just to have our photos taken by Renee and Ricky. There’s no other photographer/ videographer I would recommend other than these two!

Six years of taking bright, colorful, fun wedding photos in the city has taught me how to deliver a complete gallery of your day told in an artistic, meaningful, and unobtrusive way--because I'm here to document your day, not to direct it.

We couldn't imagine having a better photographer for our wedding than Russ. He's such a professional, took absolutely stunning photos for us, and got the photos back to us lightning fast. If he's available for your date, book him fast before he's taken! We had previously used Russ for our engagement photoshoot at SF MOMA and loved the way the photos came out. With the pandemic making a full wedding tricky, we chose to switch to a micro-wedding, with a few onsite guests and more on Zoom, down in southern California (Malibu) and Russ agreed to drive down from the Bay Area to shoot it for us. He arrived early and covid safe in an N95 mask. He's great at putting you at ease all day. We also love that he mostly uses a photojournalistic/candid style that documents everything but doesn't get in the way of your wedding with lots of distractions and staged photos. He takes colorful and sharp photos that really capture the moment and make you look great and feel like a moviestar.

Hi, I'm Nicole! From a young age, I always had a camera in hand and absolutely loved taking photographs and documenting anything that caught my eye. Born and raised in Southern California, I love the beach, bright colors, and documenting couples' love stories. Pursuing my passion for photography, I graduated from Brooks Institute of Photography with my BFA. I photographed my first wedding in 2014 and never looked back.

We worked with Nicole for our engagement photos in 2019, and then booked her for our wedding in November 2020, which ended up being postponed to November 2021. Nicole was THE BEST to work with. She was always super responsive on email when I had questions or requests. On the day of the wedding, Nicole and her second shooter were literally a dream. They were so low key and chill, which is exactly what I needed in that stressful situation. Nicole was super perceptive to my personality and mood, and she could tell when I was ready to move on from a certain shot or group. Our entire wedding party and families loved working with her! She sent our preview pics so quickly, and honestly there are so many amazing pictures included! I can't imagine what the full albums will be like! I would recommend Nicole 100% to people looking for a wedding photographer in the area with her style!

I’m a thrift shopper who loves cozy blankets and good pasta. Now that I'm a mom (of twins!), I'm reminded every day of how important the little moments are and how important it is for me to capture them before they're gone! I like to think that my style is natural and genuine :) I smile big, love to laugh but also might cry at your first dance.

My husband and I hired Emily as our photographer after a friend of mine posted her wedding photos to her Instagram over a year ago. I wasn't keen on the venue's recommendations and I couldn't seem to find a photographer that was worth the money. Thank goodness for my friend posting her wedding photos at the time she did because I was about to pick any photographer for the sake of it. Her wedding shots were so gorgeous! The veil shots? Chef's kiss! I reached out to Emily and we hopped on a call a few days later. She is so easy to talk to and relatable. We went over things about what I want and what to expect. The day of our wedding she went right into the groove of things even though my mom showed up an hour late to the venue for photos. I was stressing and she made sure I forgot about that! She got shots I didn't even think of. She made those awkward laughing photos super fun. I cannot thank Emily and her second shooter, David, enough.

Hey there! I’m a wedding and lifestyle photographer serving the East Bay, San Francisco, Napa, Sonoma + Worldwide! I travel everywhere. I love capturing magical outdoor weddings—whether it’s a dreamy garden, a historic home, a charming winery, or a private estate hidden in the woods (I'm basically the Indiana Jones of weddings). My couples often say how comfortable I make them feel, how I capture the real moments without being intrusive, and how much fun they have during our shoots. I’m obsessed with the details and love when couples pour their hearts into making their wedding day unforgettable.

Vanessa photographed our outdoor wedding. Although lighting es a challenge, Vanessa's great eye made all of the pictures perfect. She was professional, nice and a good communicator.

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!
