Fueled by equal parts coffee and passion, I spend my days capturing the kinds of images that make you stop, smile and ask time to please slow down. Your story is beautiful and I can’t wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years to come. Born and raised in Fontana, California, I specialize in capturing special moments and documenting special events such as weddings, engagements, family gatherings, and more from a storyteller’s perspective.

Great Photographer. Nathan reached out to personally make sure I received a detail gallery from an event we worked on this past December. As a florist, galleries are key to our portfolio. It is wonderful to know a quality company who cares about their clients and vendors.

  • Florist
  • Starts at $175
  • Serves Big Bear City, CA

Believe it or not, we often have people ask if our pictures throughout our website are showing a mix of fresh and faux and…no they aren’t! Although fresh florals are pretty, we are totally in love with poser-blooms all the way here and that’s what we design 100% of our orders with.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was so impressed with The Faux Bouquets for our wedding! Brittany, the owner, was incredibly quick to respond, thorough in her communication, and had such a friendly and fun personality. She really went above and beyond to make sure we got the perfect faux floral arrangements for our big day. The quality of their work is truly unique and you can tell they are so passionate about what they do. We were able to take advantage of a special deal on the flowers I wanted, and they even upgraded some of the pieces for free! Compared to other faux floral companies in the area, we were able to get much more for our money. I'm so glad I took the time for the 15 minute consultation with Brittany - it was so helpful to see the items at scale and she customized our order perfectly. Our wedding is not until 2027 but we got them early and I LOVE them. I also like that the suites aren’t cookie cutter so each of my bridesmaids have their own style.

  • Offer

At Alex V Films, we create films that feel elevated, emotional, and completely true to you. Every couple has a different story, energy, and vision for their day, so we take the time to understand what matters most to you before we ever pick up a camera. Our approach is cinematic, but never forced. We are not here to turn your wedding into a staged production or make you redo moments that should be lived in real time. Instead, we focus on capturing the genuine emotion, movement, sound, and atmosphere of your day as it naturally unfolds. The tearful vows, the wild dance floor, the in-between moments, and all the people who made the day yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
Finding the right videographer was incredibly important to us because we wanted more than just photos. We wanted to capture the voices, the laughter, the tears, the movement—every emotion that made our day unforgettable. At first, we struggled to find a connection with the work we saw, but after months of searching online, we came across Alex V Films, and his work left a lasting impression on us. It was exactly what we had been searching for. From the moment we met Alex, his warm personality and passion for his craft put us completely at ease. He took the time to understand our vision, showing incredible attention to detail and truly listening to what we wanted. His talent for capturing not only the big moments but also those small, candid interactions brought everything to life in a way we could only dream of. Alex was able to beautifully weave our vows into the movement and storytelling of our film, bringing each word to life. In my vows, I shared a memory about my papa. As he approached his final days, I asked him, “Papa, what can you tell me about love?” He gently touched his chest and said, “You feel it in your heart.” Alex captured this moment with such care; as I spoke the words, “my papa touched his chest,” the video transitioned to my wife, sliding her hand gently down my chest, mirroring my papa’s gesture. It was as if he had breathed life into our vows, capturing not just the words, but the emotion and legacy behind them. Alex made the experience of working with him enjoyable. Throughout the process, his communication was top-notch, and professionalism shone through every step of the way. He was attentive of our needs and made the process easy. Alex didn’t just record our day—he captured its essence. Every look, every laugh, every precious detail we wanted to hold onto is now a part of a beautiful memory we’ll cherish for a lifetime. These are moments that photos alone could never fully capture; they’re filled with emotions that will be felt and connected to for years to come. At the beginning of this process, Alex was a stranger. As we got to know him we felt as though he became a friend. We’re forever grateful to have found Alex, who created more than just a video—he created a keepsake of our love and joy that we will cherish for a lifetime.

Awarded Best of Zola
As an alternative /unicorn hair bride, my biggest fear when getting my hair and makeup done is that I will feel judged or that the artist will not see my vision and not want to do it in fear of feeling “off” from a traditional look. Joy and Nancy were happy to oblige with my request for a whimsical glittery look and knocked it out of the park! I got exactly the look I wanted and my hair and makeup lasted all night. I had little delicate baby’s breath followers in my hair that I was worried about and they did NOT budge all night. Same with my makeup, it held on so strong I was impressed! Would definitely recommend this team and if you want to get creative with the look, Joy and Nancy are a great option!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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

Gorgeous arrangements and designs!!!! Nicole absolutely knocked it out of the park with the color scheme and beach theme to match our wedding! She was exceptionally friendly and very understanding throughout the whole process! She worked within our budget to create the most beautiful arch florals and personals for the bouquets, corsages, and boutonnieres! Not only did our wedding party love the arrangements, also raved by the guests!!! During communications, I gave her a few ideas from Pinterest and she turned those into the most impressive custom arrangements that I couldn't be happier with as the outcome. It was also so appreciated with how prompt she was on timing for both the delivery to our hotel and set up at the venue! 10 Stars all the way for superb service and incredible detail that completely blossomed our special day!!!! Highly recommend and will be using her again for our future events!!!

Tiffany was so fun to work with! She has such a warm and energetic personality with so much make up and skincare knowledge, she made me feel comfortable and confident in my own skin. I found Louder with Powder as a referral from our wedding photographer and I am so glad I went with her. I told her right away that I do not wear that much make up, and she was so attentive to my needs. I had a make up trial with her about a 2 months before the wedding, and not only did it make the client-artist connection stronger with her bubbly personality, but she also gave so much valuable advice on taking care of my skin to be ready for my wedding day. She told me about switching from make up sponges to brushes, recommended me a serum, and had me start using castor oil on my eyebrows (I was already using it for my eyelashes). To this day, I continue to follow her advice and it has been so helpful for my skincare and make up routine. The day of the wedding, Tiffany had Leydy come out to help with hair and she also did not disappoint! Both of them have such great chemistry together and it really helped make the atmosphere at the bridal suite fun and especially made me feel comfortable. 100% recommend!

I am an inclusive photographer who would feel so honored to capture your wedding day. Leading up to your wedding, I will do everything to get to know you as a couple, staying in touch and making sure I know your aesthetic. My goal is to make sure you feel comfortable on your wedding day and look back at your photos and re-live the magic.

If I had to redo my whole wedding, the one decision (other than marrying my husband) that I would make over and over again would be to choose Mindy as our photographer. From our first phone call I thought she was kind and had a good energy, and really understood what I was trying to communicate about our preferred style and the direction that we wanted - neither of us love being photographed so we did not want to feel forced or too posed. Our engagement shoot made us feel like we made the right decision. From the locations and vibe we settled on to the different shots we got, everything felt very “us.” But Mindy really just went above and beyond on our wedding day. She continued to listen to how we were feeling, even when we wanted to call it a little early to join cocktail hour. When I wasn’t feeling supported by my day-of coordinator, Mindy really stepped up and helped me through little road bumps so that I wasn’t running around. She brought such a positive energy and was really such a joy to work with. But most importantly, her photos are GORGEOUS!!! We love our engagement pics and already have them plastered all throughout the house and although we only have the sneak peak pictures for the wedding, I’m already obsessed. I could go on forever about how great Mindy is, but long story short is I would (and will) recommend her to everyone and will definitely hire her again if I’m ever in need of a photographer!!!!

I’m Katie Tinker, Owner of Wildflowers Elegant Events. I am the wife of a Wildland Firefighter and a mama to two precious little boys & a furbaby who have stolen my heart forever. I fell in love with wedding/event planning while planning my own wedding 7 years ago. While most feel event planning to be stressful and full of anxiety I find it to be exciting and fulfilling. I am looking forward to working with you to bring your event dreams to life. And in doing that, it is my mission to make it easy, stress free, fun and an exciting journey for you.

We have nothing but absolute appreciation for Katie and her team. Katie and her team were our guardian angels on our special day. We thought we could handle things ourselves, but as the day grew closer we realized we couldn’t do it alone - and we stumbled upon Katie’s page. She was our absolute lifesaver. Not only was she extremely timely, transparent, and professional from the start, but she was also super welcoming, friendly and fun to work with. We clicked with Katie instantly, and knew we had to book her for our wedding. Katie understood our vision and brought it to life so seamlessly. She was extremely thorough through every part of the process and literally thought of EVERYTHING. Believe us, there’s something you missed on your list - but don’t worry, Katie didn’t! She also handled our vendors for us - especially the difficult ones. Honestly, we don’t know what would have happened if it wasn’t for her. Our day flowed so well, and it wouldn’t have been possible without Katie and her team. She made us feel like the priority when we were worried about the guests. She handled anything and everything that came up so gracefully - and she still won’t tell us what went wrong! Her main goal is to make sure that the day is perfect for the newlyweds and thanks to her our day was for us. She even took the time to put plates together for us to make sure we ate, or at least had access to food. Believe us, if someone doesn’t put a plate in front of you, good luck getting a bite in - your day is going to be packed. We are still receiving compliments on how well the day went, how smooth everything flowed together. Anyone we know that is engaged is already being referred to her. Choosing Katie as our Wedding Coordinator was one of the, if not the absolute best decision we could have made.

We planned our wedding 100% by ourselves and didn't quite know what we needed but Luisa helped guide us. As my vision also kept changing, Luisa was super responsive and patient through the changes, updating our proposal as necessary. We coined our final theme/ mood board ended as being a 'Spanish Sunset' and the floral arrangements were exactly that. They exceeded all my expectations! Every bouquet, centerpiece, and floral installation was crafted with such attention to detail and artistry. They perfectly captured the vibe we were going for, and we received countless compliments from our guests!

I run on shenanigans, sassiness, and an obscene amount of coffee. And I grew up in the mountains so that makes me a wildflower at heart and a mountain girl through and through. When we meet be prepared for me to crack jokes, laugh loudly, gesture wildly, and run full sprint towards something I think is pretty (while trying not to die). I believe in embracing life with a whole lot of weirdness, far too much smart-aleck humor, and every single ounce of fierce passion, obsessive gratitude, profound inspiration, and reckless joy that I can forcefully wring out of this adventure called life. So that's me.

From the very first interaction, their communication was immediate and professional, putting us at ease throughout the entire process.

But after we learned that some of our most cherished family members were unable to attend in person due to medical issues, we reconsidered and went on the hunt for a livestream option as well as an edited highlight video that we could have as a forever keepsake. We spoke to several videographers and Tony was the ONLY one to work with us on the livestream without charging an insane amount of money. He helped troubleshoot streaming platforms and software and even met with us in person beforehand to make sure things ran as smooth as possible. He was incredibly kind and patient while maintaining a professional attitude both before and on our wedding day. It did take a little longer than expected for us to receive the edited footage of our highlight video but the final product was everything we hoped for and more. We are incredibly grateful to have been able to include those members of our family who were unable to make the journey in person, and that’s all because of Tony. Thank you for everything!!

Dean MacKay Photography has been such a joy to work with! Our wedding was back in May 2024, and with a reception do-over happening very soon (due to illness-driven reasons), we are looking forward to working with him again! Dean's communication is timely, professional, and always makes sure his clients' requests are completed (reasonably). Dean puts all of his energy in making sure magical moments are captured along with getting moments that are timeless and elegant. He was absolutely phenomenal to have as our wedding photographer and even got photos of things we don't remember happening! In making sure our special day is everything we could imagine, it was super sweet to meet and discuss locations, ideal shots, and more leading up to the big day (which made the wedding day a bit less stressful). Dean is also very reasonable for travel! If you are looking for someone to make your day feel special and candid, he is your guy!

  • Serves Big Bear City, CA

As a proud dad of two amazing kids and a supportive wife, I've ventured into the world of small business to teach my son about entrepreneurship. While he may not be serving drinks just yet, he plays a vital role in preparing for the unforgettable events we create for our community.

Ale Stream Events was honestly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, they were super easy to communicate with, always responsive, and just genuinely nice people, which made the whole planning process way less stressful. They were friendly, laid-back, and professional all at the same time—exactly the kind of vendor you want to work with. On the wedding day, their team showed up ready to go. Everything was set up smoothly, looked great, and was clearly clean and well-organized. The bar service was top-notch—our guests were never waiting long for drinks, and the bartenders were attentive, fun, and great at keeping the energy up without missing a beat. The setup itself was such a vibe and fit perfectly with the overall look of our wedding. People kept coming up to us all night saying how much they loved the bar and how cool the whole setup was. Ale Stream Events truly added that extra something to our day, and we couldn’t have been happier with them. If you’re looking to bring great drinks, great service, and a little extra flair to your event, we 100% recommend Ale Stream Events.

Kris was absolutely amazing! She made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day, but still completely like myself, which was exactly what I wanted. My makeup looked gorgeous in person and in photos and lasted throughout the entire day and night. She was also so sweet, calm, professional, and easy to be around, which makes such a difference on a wedding morning when there are a million things happening. I was really stressed about some things that were happening she brought me back down and helped me relax in spite of the chaos. I am so incredibly happy with how everything turned out and so grateful Kris was part of such a special day. I would absolutely recommend Radiant Beauty By Kris to any bride looking for someone talented, kind, and dependable. Thank you for making me feel so beautiful, Kris!

A follower of Christ, a Southern California wedding photographer who’s been telling love stories through my lens since 2012. Fell in love with capturing the real, unfiltered moments that make a wedding unforgettable. I’ve documented hundreds of weddings all across SoCal. From the beaches of Laguna & Malibu to vineyards in Temecula, desert escapes in Joshua Tree, to historic venues in LA. I’m all about the in-between moments: the teary glances, laughter between vows, and the quiet pause before “I do.” Whether you’re planning a mountaintop elopement or a big-city wedding, I’m here to help you relive not just the day—but the feeling.

I just got my photos back, and I am in love!! I used to work in the wedding industry for 8 years and have worked with many photographers, and Antonio is top notch! He was so professional and always responded to my messages right away. His personality was also enjoyable to be around, and he made me and my husband feel so comfortable which showed in the photos. He was also affordable! I can't recommend him enough!!

Finding the right hairstyle and artist for my wedding day was challenging since I wanted something that felt effortless and natural yet elevated as a wedding hairstyle. Sarah came highly recommended by my makeup artist, and when I looked at her portfolio, I knew that she was the right person for the job. She was extremely skilled and was able to replicate the style I wanted and accommodated requests from my bridesmaids as well. From cute upstyles to braids and curls, she can do them all and do them well. She was extremely efficient and relaxed to be around on my wedding day and made the day so stress free. My hair lasted throughout the night through veil attachments, dancing, countless hugs, and hours of fun. If you are looking for an artist who gives your hair that ethereal vibe, Sarah is your gal.
