Hi! My name is Marsha and I am a wedding and lifestyle photographer in Central California with over 15 years of experience. I love going above and beyond for my clients giving them the ultimate experience!

Awarded Best of Zola
Marsha has been taking our Mommy and Me photos since 2012. When it was time to get married in 2018, I didn’t hesitate to call her. I knew that I wanted to have Marsha capture one of the best days of our lives, so I booked my photographer, before even scouting a venue. She is sweet, funny, and flexible, all while remaining professional. Her honesty is genuine and she wants the best of what you aim to achieve. If you don’t know it, she’ll guide you there. She makes things fun and comfortable for everyone. I adore her and you will, too!

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.

10/10 would recommend randall!! We booked him for our engagement shoot and wedding and we are beyond appreciative and impressed. RDL is the only photographer my husband and I could agree on. We liked his photography style, the quality of the work, the price, and his personality. He even guided us with the timeline to make the most of the time and photography. For both the engagement shoot and wedding day, he guided us and made us feel comfortable. We’re def not models but he made us look great! We were able to get some posed shots and some Candids. He was PATIENT with us and didn’t make us feel awkward at all. The day of the wedding, I got so many compliments from our families with how they appreciated his presence. He kindly directed people and was patient with us and our guests. Def professional guy and just honestly a good personality. He’s also priced well. Def recommend booking a consult and booking him for your events!! You won’t regret it

I take pride in delivering high-quality photos and genuinely enjoy being part of your big day. Based in Aptos, I also serve the surrounding areas of the Monterey Bay region, and I’m always ready to travel wherever your love story takes us!

Awarded Best of Zola
Deanna was truly the most amazing photographer for our wedding! Neither my husband nor I had ever taken professional photos before, and to be honest, we’re both pretty awkward and camera-shy. But from the moment we booked her, she made the whole experience feel effortless. She even offered an engagement session, which helped us get comfortable in front of the camera. By the end of it, we were blown away by how beautiful the photos turned out—far beyond what we had imagined! On the wedding day, Deanna was more than just a photographer; she was a calming presence amidst all the excitement and nerves. Her ability to guide us through poses felt so natural—never forced or uncomfortable. She has such an incredible eye for capturing genuine moments, and the photos reflect that in every frame. Deanna didn’t just document our wedding; she became a friend along the way. I can’t express how much we appreciate her talent, kindness, and professionalism. We’re already looking forward to working with her again for future milestones and photo sessions. Thank you, Deanna, for capturing our special day so perfectly—we couldn’t have asked for more!

Aladdin Films is a way to go! Their level of service was nothing short of perfection. Meetings, phone calls, contracts, and payments were all handled with lightning speed and efficiency, leaving us with nothing to worry about. From the very first call meeting, we felt that they could read our minds, it was a strange and at the same time relieving feeling. We were 100% certain they knew what they were talking about. And after looking at their previous jobs, all of our concerns faded away. The result was shocking, I’d never imagined that I could be like one of those celebrities on the cover of GC. Pure magic. On the actual wedding day, the videographer took us outside for about 10 to 15 minutes or so, so he could get some footage of us acting… We are not actors. Not even close. But on the actual video, we looked so flawless, so natural, it is amazing. They are creating masterpieces out there, and we’re so glad that we chose them. Highly recommend!

Hi there!

I LOVE my work & am passionate about capturing life's precious milestones, & doing so in a way that feels natural & authentic to my clients. Although I love all photography, I specialize in wedding, lifestyle, & business photography with a natural, earthy, classic & candid style.

Brayley was hands down the easiest and one of the best hires for our wedding. I found her through the Zola website as a photographer with five stars. I reached out, and she got back to me immediately. Her communication skills were top-notch, and I hired her that same day. My fiancé and I live in the Carolinas, and despite the three-hour time difference, we always felt in the loop, heard, and understood. From the first email to the wedding day, she was amazing. Now let's get to the important stuff... the wedding day. She was incredible. She got all the shots I wanted and then some. We were able to get all the photos done in a timely manner so that we could get back to the party and enjoy ourselves. Brayley captured both staged photos and the best candids. We cannot wait to get the rest of our album back. If you're thinking about hiring Brayley... DO IT!

We first met Michael as the photographer for our close friends' elopement. His personality was great and he eased our nerves throughout the multiple locations of shooting photos. When my now-husband and I got engaged, we already knew that Michael was our guy! He didn't bat an eye when we asked him to walk a half-mile into the woods carrying his equipment with us for our engagement photos. The photos came out great and were perfect for printing on our wedding invitations. He delivered the photos promptly and we were in love with them! Communications up to the wedding were easy and he was very collaborative. He also asked us what was important to us, and took and gave direction very well. On our wedding day, he and his assistant were so great to work with. Not only did they calm my nerves and reassure me, but they handled communications with the wedding party greatly and made the process feel effortless, even as I was behind schedule (my fault). The photos were delivered much quicker than I anticipated and they are BEAUTIFUL!

Hi there. I am a wedding + lifestyle photographer serving the East Bay, San Francisco, Napa, Sonoma and Sacramento areas. My focus is on outdoor weddings: gardens, historic homes, wineries, parks, private estates, forests, national parks, and country clubs. I adore details and love when couples pour their hearts and souls into making their wedding a special day they will remember forever.

I got married in Napa Valley and didn't know who to hire for my professional pictures. The venue recommended a few names and after contacting Vanessa I knew that is who I wanted to work with. She was very caring and patient. She was on time and didn't disrupt the moment when I was getting ready, instead she made it special. She gave us poses to do and talked to the venue to make sure we could go to a little bridge I wanted to take pictures at. I highly recommend her!!

We LOVE our engagement and wedding photos so so so much. There are so many amazing photos to choose from it makes it hard to post and print…. so I end up spamming IG and FB a lot lol. Ashley was great to work with and really made us feel so relaxed on our wedding day. We were nervous for the engagement session but it was a lot of fun and the end results came out so amazing that we had so much trust in her the day of the wedding. She got amazing photos of the scenery and of us both times. She was available for all my call requests the weeks leading up to the wedding and helped me plan the timeline so that everything flowed and worked really well. We ended up finishing our couple, bridal party, and family photos so quickly. It was such a great experience. Its been a few months since the engagement session and a couple months since the wedding and I still look at all the pics so often! Thank you Ashley!!!!!!

Hi There! I'm Katherine (or Kay!). I've loved weddings for as long as I could remember and I believe I have one of the best jobs in the whole world. I love being able to capture moments from one of the best days of a couples lives and I get to do it alongside my best friend, my Husband. You could call us nerds; we love Harry Potter, puzzles and video games. Our favorite vacation spot is definitely Las Vegas and we both love good Mexican food. We have two fur babies; Bella and Betsy and yes they are so spoiled. The Husband, Abraham (or Bram) is also an engineer when he's not capturing weddings and a Cal Poly alum.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kay is simply the best photographer on the planet, me and my husband are from Italy and France and we’ve never met a photographer that is so professional, optimistic and fun. It’s like an old friend is taking pictures of you, she makes you feel very comfortable and knows how to make you look beautiful on your special day. We’ve hired her for our engagement session back in 2018 and now for our wedding on May 8th. What else is there to say? Be ready Kay. We’ll hire you so many other times and be ready to fly to Italy in a couple of years.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, Jay actually stepped in as a replacement on behalf of our original photographer, they were buddies :) The night before to the morning of, Jay was very communicative from the start & even afterward we were wrapped up from our ceremony. Of course being that this was our first time getting professional photographed as a couple, Jay guided us through poses, angles, allowing to feel very comfortable & natural in front of the camera. Plus he had a great eye when taking candid shots, which is one of the main things my husband & I wanted 3 At the of the day, he went out of his way to send us sneak peek shots of our photos & just from that kind gesture & professionalism alone, said a lot. Thank you so much again Jay for capturing such a special day for us, especially with our love ones there. All the photos turned out so beautiful!

Hi, my name is Alexandra Marie and I LOVE capturing love and freezing your memory forever. Getting to know you guys and hearing how you met is one of my favorite things ever. I understand the importance of preserving your memories and making them last a lifetime.

We hired Alexandra and her Sister Michele for a wedding their package came with a complimentary engagement session. We met Alexandra for the first time. Our first impression is as soon as she started talking she made us feel at ease. She took charge of the session, posing and directing us in many ways. My husband isn't the type to want to do photos ever and she had him smiling the entire time. By the end of our engagement session, it felt like we had known her for years. Fast forward to our wedding day, everything was going wrong. When Alexandra arrives she notices my face and right away goes and takes charge. She directed all the vendors to where they needed to be she made sure no one bugged me as I was getting ready. The entire night they were capturing everything without being asked. they made sure that we had pictures with almost every single guest. they took almost 4000 photos and provided them all to use edited within 3 months. They didn't charge us extra most of my friends were surprised when I shared that with them as most photographers charge extra after so many edits. I highly recommend them both they make it so easy to talk to and the booking process was really easy. I am forever grateful I had them capture our day. Gave us so many memories to look back on
