My Style of Photography: I combine curated moments with editorial touch and candid authentic moments. I often combine digital and film photography to capture your wedding day. My photography journey begun over a decade ago. During this time I have been learning from and collaborating with some of the best professionals in the industry. My Approach: Getting to know my couples before their wedding day, and making them feel comfortable and relaxed in front of my camera. My Advice to Couples: Take a deep breath and be in the present moment. Plan your timeline to have extra time for photography on your wedding day.

Julia was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning she put us at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, Julia made us and our guests feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, and her photos truly captured the magic of our special day. Julia has an incredible eye for detail and her excellent editing skills brought our dream wedding photos to life. We couldn't be happier with the final results and would highly recommend Julia Lukash Photography to any couple looking for a wedding photographer.

I cannot recommend Nick enough! He did both our engagement and wedding photos. He is incredibly talented at what he does! He listens and is super patient. (At the time, we had a wiggly 4 year old daughter that he understood had a limited attention span!) We didn't want a ton of still shots of us...and he still managed to get the most important ones on our wedding day. He knew we wanted to capture the fun/touching moments of our day and he did just that. Additionally, our engagement photos were so beautiful too! We plan to use Nick throughout the years as our family grows...thank you so much for locking our most precious day in time!

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.

Hi! I'm Hannah, your So Cal (but traveling) elopement and intimate wedding photographer! I'm so glad you're here. My photography style is a documentary/natural photographer. This means I'm more about documenting your moments and helping you create genuine smiles/moments in photos, opposed to just posing you, i want you to dance and have fun, snuggle into your partner and get those intimate moments. (I'll of course help you figure out what to do with your hands, because lets me honest, even I don't know what to do with my hands in photos. Haha) I love traveling, I love adventure, and I love making friends out of my clients.

Hannah was a wonderful choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, she was quick to respond, pleasant, and inviting in her communication. Her work was above and beyond our expectations - the photos are absolutely beautiful and showcase her skillful eye. She catered to what we wanted, picking out amazing photo spots in various stunning locations. Hannah was so open to our ideas and prioritized our wants and needs throughout the entire process. She captured all the shots we requested, and even some we didn't think of, creating a truly beautiful set of memories from our special day. We are thrilled with the results and highly recommend Hannah Madison Photography.

Kristina Lee Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,700
  • Serves Valley Center, 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
I was referred to Kristina by my wedding venue's coordinator. I was having a destination wedding at a private estate and she had shot several weddings and shoots there before. Knowing that she knew the venue and seeing her work, I knew she was a top contender. Having great quality photos was hugely important to me, and that was something I wasn't willing to sacrifice quality on. Her style was exactly what I wanted—natural, soft, minimally edited, and not overly posed. However, a good wedding photographer is an investment, so I wanted to meet with her first. Luckily, she lives in the same town as I do, so I didn't have to travel to the destination to meet her.When I joined her for a glass of wine, we instantly clicked and I was immediately a YES. Before my husband would sign on the dotted line, he wanted to meet her as well. We met for a 2nd time, all three of us, and he also loved her right away. Having that connection to a photographer is SO important to make you feel comfortable throughout the event and truly trust them (photos are awkward, right?). The day could not have run more smoothly, thanks in large part to Kristina. She made taking photos fun for everyone and our bridal party also fell in love with her. Aside from being fun and personable, she was professional and kept us on a tight timeline. She also made sure we fit everything in on my wishlist: first look, first look with my dad, bridal party photos, family photos, table photos, dancing, the hora...didn't miss ANYTHING. I'm so in love with my photos from that day and so happy to have those lifelong memories. Since then, she's become a great friend. Anytime I want photos taken for a life event, I will ONLY use her. She's taken family holiday photos, photos of my pups, professional photos for my husband, and I will keep using only her for family photos in the future.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
We met with a handful of photographers before we settled on Steve. Beyond his ability to capture candid moments of joy, laughter, and celebration, Steve's honesty and transparency made us feel at home with our decision to move forward with his services. He incorporated an engagement shoot into our photography package, and spending that additional time with him prior to our big day helped us feel so much more comfortable with the entire process. After our engagement shoot, Steve was kind enough to grab lunch (dim sum) with us in LA's Chinatown, going above and beyond to make us feel comfortable in his presence. Steve is the most laid-back, amicable photographer you could ask for, and it was a privilege to have him capture our wedding. He is a kind soul and fits in splendidly with any crowd. We look forward to using his services for many more milestones in the future.

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.

Working with Christin at Christin Sofka Photography was one of the absolute highlights of our wedding journey.

Before we even officially hired her, Christin was helping us find a venue that aligned with our dream, connecting us with other amazing vendors, and offering support in ways far beyond the role of a photographer. She was in it with us every step of the way. I’m usually awkward in front of a camera, but somehow Christin made it feel effortless and fun. She created an environment where we could just be ourselves—and that joy, love, and personality came through in every photo. Our pictures shine with who we are. Every idea we had, she embraced and brought to life in ways that exceeded our expectations. She was just as excited as we were the entire time—and honestly, I can’t imagine our day without her. Christin is not just a photographer—she’s a true artist, a cheerleader, and a calming, creative force you’ll be so lucky to have by your side. If you’re considering hiring her: do it.

I'm a portrait photographer capturing love & beauty in sunny southern California & beyond. I believe being able to freeze a moment in time to look back on and cherish again is such a beautiful gift. As a kid, my family would host gatherings at home often, and I would pause and blink my eyes really hard trying to take a “photo” in my mind during the fun. Haha :) I never wanted the time spent with loved ones to end. In college, when I tried searching for what I wanted to study and become, I was reminded of those memories - the things that brought great elation, the things that felt like home. I want to capture moments like that for you, too.

We had a fantastic time with Alex. This was our family's first photo shoot and Alex went above and beyond, helping us feel comfortable and have fun while getting our pictures taken. I was especially thankful for how thoughtful she was in finding ways to keep our toddler entertained and engaged during our photo session. I would highly recommend her for any photo needs.

From the moment we first spoke with Ari from Theel Productions, we knew we had found the perfect photographer for our wedding. Ari has a warm, friendly, and cheerful communication style that instantly put us at ease. She is an expert at what she does, and her talent was evident in the way she authentically captured every special moment during our engagement shoot, rehearsal dinner, and wedding day. We truly felt so special to work with Ari - she is incredibly talented, detail-oriented, timely, and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. I could not recommend Theel Productions enough to any couple looking for a top-notch wedding photographer.

I started my photography business having a passion for capturing pure emotions and real life moments. I love capturing the essence of people, love and the characteristics that define them both. Being able to visualize a bond between people and bring that to life through a photo is what I set out to do, no matter what moment I am capturing!

For us, it is all about documenting your day as it unfolds. We are believers that the best photographs come from letting everything flow. We don't believe in interrupting special moments to get a safe (posed) photo. On the contrary, we capture all moments: the fun, the crazy, the unexpected. We will get your dad in tears when he sees you in your wedding gown, and will also take your nephew in the middle of a tantrum. All that is part of your story. When you see your photos in 5 years, you will remember how your special day FELT and not only how it looked. You don't have to worry about photos, you just have to enjoy your day at the fullest.
