  • Fine art style
  • Serves Surfside, CA

Hello. I'm Steven. Starting my photography as a hobby in 2014 and becoming a professional in 2017, I have serviced over 80 weddings at diverse locations in my career. Throughout 3 years of my profession, I have chosen the path of fine art photography, which embraces natural colors, rich content, and especially real-time emotions. Contrary to traditional documentary photographers, my goal is to capture every special moment of your wedding day by praising the beauty through lighting and composition.

We can’t thank him enough - book Steven for your wedding photos!

Cassy Velazquez Photography

  • Serves Surfside, CA

I have always loved story-telling. I loved writing stories as a kid (I even tried to get a book published at age 12) and I love writing my own D&D campaigns now. Through storytelling, I see the paths laid ahead for our heroes, and beautiful adventures that need to be documented. Through storytelling, I started to see the pictures. And from these pictures, I began to photograph. I am crazy passionate about your day. I want to help you capture those moments. I want you to have the most amazing time, and the happiest memories. I want you to have photos so good that you can’t wait to show it off to the people you know, and even those you don’t.

We hired Cassy for our wedding photos and was happily satisfied. She was easy going,fun and captured some our most memorable wedding moments.

Hi and welcome! I'm Madeleine and am so glad that you've connected with my work. I focus on bringing you a fun, relaxed photography experience so that you can keep your attention on what's most important... enjoying the celebration with each other and your closest loved ones! You will always be treated like a friend and a client, meaning I will be your partner throughout your entire wedding experience. I strive to create a fun, laid back environment that will help produce the most authentic photos for your Southern California or destination wedding. I'd love to hear more about you, your partner, and your vision, so feel free to get in touch!

Words truly cannot capture how much we love Madeleine. From our very first interaction, it was clear we had found someone special to document our day. Madeleine's talent and passion shone through every moment we spent with her, and we couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our wedding. She expertly corralled our enormous family, ensuring everyone was in the right place at the right time, all while keeping us on schedule. In the midst of the whirlwind, she made us feel so beautiful and comfortable, even as we were being pulled in various directions. Her ability to blend professionalism with a warm, friendly demeanor kept us laughing throughout the day, easing any feelings of being overwhelmed. The photos she captured are pure magic. Each image tells a story, beautifully preserving the joy and love of our wedding day. Madeleine’s photos exude the exact emotions we felt throughout our day and I know we will cherish them forever. One of the hardest parts of the wedding being over is the realization that we won’t get to see Madeleine again. It feels like we gained a true friend throughout this process, and we now know exactly who to call to capture all of life's big events in the future. Thank you, Madeleine, for your incredible work and for making our day unforgettable! We love you so much!

Stephanie’s journey in photography began when her sister became engaged in 2017. This was such an emotional experience for her that what started out as a hobby quickly became a passion that she craved to share with others. For her, photography is more than just a photo or a snapshot. It’s a treasure. A priceless glimpse into the past where all the best moments of your life are preserved. Stephanie strives to deliver the perfect photos, encapsulating all the firsts, all the feels, all the memories!

As soon as I got engaged, I booked Stephanie! Before I even had any of my other vendors, I knew I needed her to document our day! From initial meeting to gallery delivery, she has been the most amazing, patient, kind, responsive, fun, hardworking, and wonderful individuals I have ever had the opportunity to work with. She truly cares about her couples and her work is truly beautiful. Take a moment to scroll through her photos and you'll fall in love like I did! She is great at catching all the moments-- candid or posed and makes you feel comfortable. I am so happy we booked her and will refer her to all my friends and family! Thank you so much for taking care of us Steph!

Anatoliy K Weddings

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,900

Anatoliy is from Kazakhstan, where he studied transportation technology at Karaganda State Technical University, before getting his MFA in filmmaking from New York Film Academy. Susie is from LA, and she studied molecular & cellular biology at Harvard University (along with film and animation), before getting her MS in computer science from UChicago. While we were both in engineering, deep down, we always had a passion for storytelling. And one day, we decided that life was far too short for us not to do what we loved: creating and sharing real stories.

I don't think there are words to truly express how much Anatoliy K, Susie, and team made our wedding photo dreams come true. From a perfect engagement shoot on the beach to our big day in a spring garden - the photos say it all! Each moment and detail was so perfectly captured, and made our hearts burst looking at each picture. We are truly blown away by the high-quality, attention to detail, and gorgeous compositions that came out of such a creative team. Once I saw AnatoliyK Weddings on Zola, they stood out, and they truly delivered. It was SUCH a pleasure and joy working with Anatoliy and Susie from the beginning to end. They made our vision come to life, and we have it for a lifetime to remember! THANK YOU so much to such an amazing wedding photography team. I cannot recommend you hire them enough!!!

I first began taking photos when my son, Andrew, was born in 1998. He is now my second photographer. I started my wedding photography career in 2000, working for a wedding studio part-time. In April 2019, I started as a full-time wedding photographer to pursue my life time goal. I would love to capture your unique love story!

Justin is an absolute blast to work with, I'm so glad we had him as our wedding photographer. Not only did our photos turn out incredible but he was so much fun to have as a part of our wedding. He's extremely interactive and involved, during our reception if he noticed someone on our dance floor trying to take a selfie he'd jump in with a spotlight so that their person photos would turn out great too. I just love how thoughtful that was! He caters to your wants for photos, while he guides and advises for what will look best he also listens to your ideas and makes sure that you get the photos that you want. Justin has an amazing personality, while very professional, he also had us cracking up the whole time and made our photo sessions not only moments that we had our photos taken but memories that make me smile and laugh when I think back on them. Rather than a vendor that we hired, Justin immediately felt like a friend that was celebrating with us. I highly recommend him and cannot thank him enough for all he did to add to our day and capture all the amazing moments for us.

Hello lovely! Let me introduce myself—I’m Sarah. Welcome to my little creative space—I hope you love it here & make yourself at home. My goal as your photographer is to put you at ease and therefore be able to capture your moments authentically and beautifully. As a film and digital photographer ("hybrid" if you will!), I take a big step back to capture your memories with intention, love, and honesty - my promise to you, is to treat your day as if it were my own. Film is my favorite medium to capture wedding days on, as I feel it brings back a level of authenticity, imperfection, and refined elegance that is irreplaceable.

Fox & Fig photography just captured our wedding this past weekend in Berkeley, CA and we cannot say enough good things about Sarah and her team. Before our wedding Sarah was communicative and so helpful with the planning process, she even helped build us a timeline for day-of! She made sure to check-in with us before to ask for inspo pics or a Pinterest board to make sure she could capture what we valued most. Sarah is incredibly detail oriented, kind, personable and we can't wait to get back our sneak peaks! She was excellent at directing not only my husband and I but our entire wedding party. She remembered everyone's names and kept us on track with our timeline. Sarah made sure we were feeling good day-of and kept checking in on us all night long. She brought along a second shooter and videographer day of and they were just as lovely! Sarah and her team have that southern hospitality and charm that makes everyone feel super comfortable in front of the camera. We cannot recommend Fox & Fig photography enough!

Emily was so accommodating, shaping a photography and videography package that fit us perfectly! On our wedding day she was incredibly hard working and well prepared. She makes everyone she meets feel comfortable, confident and beautiful in their pictures! On top of honoring our "shot list" and getting all of my top priorities taken care of, Emily scoped out the venue and came up with fun locations and ideas that we hadn't considered! She also played with traditional photography, shooting on film, and polaroids all of which gave us unique looks that we love!

As a devoted wedding and portrait photographer, my primary focus is on authentically capturing the genuine emotions that make up your unique story. My goal is to ensure that your special day is not just visually documented, but deeply felt.

Rafael is hands down one of the best photographers I have worked with. I used his services previously for my mothers wedding and when the day came for mine I knew he was the photographer for us. He is detail oriented, patient, creative and kind. When my husband and I decided to elope we only gave ourselves a week and a half to plan. Rafael was very accommodating to our last minute plans and made us feel as if we had planned our special day a year in advance. Rafael took the time to learn the site and plan beautiful photos accordingly. Rafael gave us great directions on how to pose and what angels would make us stand out. My husband and I are not huge on taking photos and when we received the photos we were amazed ! The photos looked natural and captured who we are as a couple. I look at these photos and feel confident and beautiful! I appreciate all the work Rafael put in to our special day ! We are so excited to share these photos with our loved ones for generations to come.

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!

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

Ashley exceeded all our expectations - you can tell she truly loves what she does, and it shows in her incredible work. The style of photography she does is exactly what we were looking for, and she managed to capture all the special moments of our day perfectly. We felt so comfortable with her, and she made the whole process seamless. We are thrilled with the final photos and couldn't recommend Myself Lens more highly!

I'm Erin. I'm a photographer, traveler, and wide-eyed wonderer. I split my time between the Midwest and my bungalow near the beach in Oceanside, CA. My favorite pastimes include exploring Disneyland, watching Schitts Creek & Ted Lasso, and cuddling my dog. I have a loud laugh. I love cabernet franc, chocolate chip cookies, and I'm on a constant search for the best tacos in the world.

Erin was just so easy to work with from the first point of communication on email prior to the wedding to tidying up before to during the wedding and after. It's a full service experience and she is just easy-going and great at capturing the moments! I even saw her dancing and enjoying herself during the Money Dance- so fun! Highly Recommend
