Hi, I'm Dennis, the photographer and filmmaker behind B4M Photography & Film, based in Redding, Northern California, and happy to travel. My style is warm, cinematic, and timeless: soft light, real emotion, and the in-between moments most people forget are happening. I want your gallery to feel the way your day actually felt. B4M is full-service, I shoot and film weddings of every size, from big celebrations to quiet elopements, and my partner Jess can write and officiate your ceremony, so it all lives under one roof. If that sounds like your kind of person, I'd love to hear your story.

Dennis brought such a calm and reassuring energy to our wedding day. Weddings can feel overwhelming, but he guided us through portraits, family photos, and timeline changes without making anything feel stressful. He was organized, kind, and easy to trust. Our photos turned out better than we could have imagined.

Hello my name is Makayla and I am a California based destination wedding and elopement photographer (MN based as of July 2026). My objective is to capture your love story and to bring your dream day to life! Let’s capture these special moments to keep for a lifetime together.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Makayla and could not be happier with the results. Makayla has a beautiful eye for photography and light. Makayla captured both our wedding and our engagement photos. She was professional, quick to respond and willing to try different types of styles in our engagement photos so we could choose a style we wanted for our wedding. I would and have recommended Makayla to friends and family. Wedding planning can be expensive but I think Makayla is worth every penny especially if you are doing a destination wedding. Overall I think what sets Makayla apart from other photographers was her complete respect for what we wanted as a couple, both for privacy in what we wanted featured on her accounts, and also how we wanted photography to be incorporated into our wedding day (giving us the space during vows and not always feeling like it was a photo shoot). She was also honest throughout the process in what she could and couldn't do regarding lighting and weather and was one of the few photographers that we talked to that had clear price points on her website that you can find without asking! If you are on the fence with other photographers I recommend choosing Makayla. We are so happy with our photos and that we hired her.

Vic was the best photographer my husband and I have ever worked with!!! We hired her for our wedding and she was so professional and fun to work with. My family, bridal party and guest loved her! Vic had us laughing the entire time and made us feel comfortable with posing and suggested us the best ideas too. After a week or 2 after the wedding we got our photos and they were breathtaking!! Most photos I didn’t realized she captured since she was so quick on her feet. It looks like there was 3 photographers since she got all angles from the ceremony, speeches, and dances. We are so impressed by how amazing she is. We highly recommend her to photograph any event you have and want to make sure everything is captured!

The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted. Alec truly went above and beyond, and we had such a great time working with him. I'm obsessed with the pictures and would give him an 11/10 rating!

Edgar is the best! He was fun to be around and up for anything. He traveled hours to meet us and even went on a pretty buggy/muddy hike to capture the most incredible photos. We are both so awkward in front of a camera and he immediately made us comfortable - such an important skillset! We can't wait to see him again next June for our wedding, and have so much faith that he will hit it out of the park again!

Awarded Best of Zola
Unmatched, epic, insanely talented artist and masterpiece! We truly cannot say enough incredible things about Julia Goldberg. From the very first email, zoom meetings, to the moment she arrived at our hotel the morning of our wedding to the very last minute eight hours later, she was the definition of professionalism, talent, and calm energy. Julia gave my husband and I our dream wedding day in every sense of the word. Her attention to detail, direction, and posing skills made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, and she somehow managed to keep everything running smoothly while still making it so fun and natural. She was an absolute ROCKSTAR the entire day, anticipating moments before they happened and capturing them so beautifully and effortlessly. When working with her, you feel as if you’ve known her your whole life. Beyond her impressive talent, Julia is just an amazing person to be around. She is personable, friendly, kind, funny, and so outgoing—it honestly felt like we had a close friend by our side all day. That kind of presence made such a difference and allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment of our wedding day. And the sneak peek photos… omg we were BEYOND blown away and I cried tears of joy and am still at a loss for words looking at them everyday! Receiving them in less than 48 hours was already impressive, but the photos themselves were beyond anything we could have imagined—stunning, romantic, emotional, and perfectly capturing the magic of our day. She is worth every penny and more! From the day I found her Instagram and website, I knew there was no other photographer I could use for our wedding. Whether you’re getting married at the iconic San Francisco City Hall, on a Safari in Africa, or under the northern lights, she has the itinerary mapped out to a T and gives you the resources to make your day absolutely seamless while always keeping you in the loop and making you feel important and valued. It was truly a dream come true to have Julia as our wedding photographer. We could not have had a more treasured and memorable day without her, and we will be forever grateful. 10000000/10 experience and I want to get married over and over just to have her shoot us again! Thank you again, Julia-you made my wedding dreams come true️

We hired Johnny for our wedding, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From our first meeting for our engagement photos, he made us feel comfortable and understood our vision perfectly. On our big day, Johnny was a true professional—he and his assistant blended in with our guests while capturing every precious moment. The candid shots were genuinely heartwarming, showcasing emotions that we didn't even realize were being captured. He is truly a master at capturing the "moment before the moment". The posed photos were equally impressive, with a beautiful balance of creativity and elegance. The editing was fantastic; the colors were vibrant, and every image felt timeless. We received our photos promptly, and the quality was outstanding. Overall, we can't recommend So Behold This/Johnny enough. He not only delivered stunning images but also is a joy to work with! If you're looking for a photographer who combines talent with a warm personality, look no further!

Based in Oregon, I photograph weddings across the Pacific Northwest, California, and British Columbia. My background in photojournalism taught me how to anticipate real emotion, while my years in wedding photography taught me how to guide and support couples in front of the camera. I love helping people who’ve never modeled before feel comfortable, confident, and genuinely connected. Every story is personal to me — I’m not just your photographer, I’m your teammate throughout the day.

Awarded Best of Zola
I rarely write comments about the work of specialists, but it is simply impossible not to appreciate the work of Georgy Shishkin! This man is an amazing Photographer with a capital letter! The way he sees the frame, how he builds the shooting process, what impression he makes on everyone who participates in it - this is great professionalism, experience and, of course, a gift given to him from above! For the past 6 years, George has been filming the most important events of our lives. There are more than 1000 of his pictures in family albums, which we review every time with great joy and nostalgia! Our wedding, the birth of children, walks, trips to Altai and Baikal, Geogry was always happy to agree to all our crazy filming ideas and the result always exceeded expectations! This is the rare case when you are already spoiled by good shots and your expectations are too high, but every time he surpasses himself and the shots that you get in the end cause just a flurry of genuine emotions and joy! I wholeheartedly recommend Georgy Shishkin as the best photographer in our city! Because sometimes I had to work with other professionals, and as a result, we all concluded that no one coped with the task better than Georgy! Georgy always exceeds expectations and does his job with a piece of his soul, it is felt in every frame to which he put his talented hand of a photographer!

Hi! My name is Madison, but you can call me Maddi. Raised in Maryland, I've lived in Colorado, South Dakota, and Germany. I now live in San Diego with my husband and our two dogs. I've always had a love for photography and I feel privileged to bring my passion to life. I want my photos to capture the genuine feeling of the moment and to reflect you and your story.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are absolutely thrilled with our experience with Madison! From the moment we met, she was incredibly friendly and easy to talk to. She made the whole process feel so natural and enjoyable, which was so important on such a big day. Not only was she professional, but she went above and beyond in ways we didn’t expect. For example, when I was struggling to pin something to my dress, she immediately jumped in to help—something totally outside her job description, but she did it with a smile and made sure everything was perfect. It was those little thoughtful gestures that truly set her apart. And of course, the photos are nothing short of stunning! We absolutely love her style and the way she uses color. She made sure to capture every important moment, and we now have beautiful memories to cherish forever. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for not just a photographer, but someone who genuinely cares about making your day perfect.

At The Photography Friend, we specialize in wedding photography that feels as natural and genuine as your love story. Our approach is centered on capturing real emotions and candid moments, ensuring that every laugh, tear, and tender glance is preserved authentically. We believe in creating a relaxed environment where you can be yourselves, allowing us to document your day as it naturally unfolds.

From the moment they arrived I felt calmer, like a weight lifted. They were quietly efficient and somehow never in the way but always capturing the moments. The getting-ready photos are my absolute favorites because they feel intimate not staged, just real. The ceremony photos brought tears to my mom’s eyes, she said it was like reading the day back to her. The video includes small interstitial moments (gusts of wind, a clink of glasses) that make it feel alive. My husband said “they made the day look even better than we remember” and I agreed. They weren’t pushy with poses, just guided gently and let us be ourselves. I appreciate that they checked in with us about must-have shots beforehand. The turnaround was reasonable and their online gallery is easy to share. The prints we ordered arrived looking perfect. Guests commented on how kind and professional the team was. I’ll treasure these for decades.

As the mother of the bride I was so worried everything would go right, but this was beyond my hopes. They captured every moment with such love and detail, it truly made me cry. My daughter looked stunning, but what touched me most was how they also highlighted our family and friends. The photos of me holding her hands before she walked down the aisle are priceless. The video brought out the emotion of the vows and the joy of the party afterwards, like two worlds blending perfectly. They didn’t miss anything, from the flowers to the big dances. Even my husband who never compliments anything said “Wow this is really amazing.” I’ve watched the video probably 20 times already and it never gets old. I know in 10 or 20 years this will still bring us right back to that special day. Thank you for giving my daughter memories she will keep forever. My heart is full.
