“We had an initial meeting to discuss our expectations, timeline and requests. Sarah who coordinated everything communicated well from beginning to end. We are forever grateful to our wedding photographers and videographers, Andrew, Bogdan, Christian and Vinukh for capturing every special moment of our big day so beautifully. Shoutout to Andrew for speaking to my family in our language so they can be more comfortable. From capturing every precious corner of our venue to the grand exit, they were professional, creative, and attentive to every detail. They captured genuine emotions, candid moments, and stunning portraits. The photos are breathtaking, and the video perfectly tells the story of our wedding day. We were both camera shy but they made us feel comfortable and worked seamlessly throughout the event. They followed through with all our requests. Their dedication, talent, and passion for their craft truly shine through in their work. I did not feel pressured or rushed throughout the day because they gently guided us with patience and listened to us. We made the right decision booking them. We highly recommend them to any couple looking for a team that not only delivers exceptional photos and videos but also helps make the wedding day experience enjoyable and stress-free. Thank you so much!”

As a female photographer, I work especially well with couples who aren't used to being in front of a camera. I'm good at guiding you through poses with clear, natural direction, and you can see how I work with couples on my social media reels. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a larger celebration, I bring the same care to every wedding I shoot.

“We flew to LA for this shoot and Jacinda was incredible! This was basically our second honeymoon since we already had our wedding, and she captured us so naturally. We absolutely loved her style and her personality, she made the whole experience feel easy and fun. She also recommended a driver and a makeup artist since we didn't know anyone in the area, and it ended up being an all female team, all three of them were amazing!!! The makeup artist totally got my vibe, glam but classic, and the driver made everything stress free. For such a reasonable price, we got a full day of exploring LA and ended up with photos we genuinely love. Couldn't have asked for a better team!”

Cassy Velazquez Photography

Mission Viejo, CA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,000

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.

“I don't know how else to say this, but my husband and I are THE most awkward people when it comes to photos. We forget how to smile, we never know where to look, and we don't know what to do with our hands... or faces. We had a different photographer for our engagement photos and I didn't like the way 99% of them came out. We looked uncomfortable and awkward. I emailed Cassy about how uncomfortable we are in front of a camera and she called me to reassure me that she would be able to give us direction and make sure all the photos turned out great. We had a tiny micro wedding on the beach during covid with just our immediate family. I hired a picnic company to set up a tiny ceremony and hors d'oeuvres. Cassy captured all the details of the set up beautifully. My in-laws wanted a coffee table book of our wedding photos, and it was so hard to pick just a few. We got so many incredible photos! Our couples shots look like something in a magazine. She made it so fun, we never felt weird or uncomfortable. Cassy had these little tips and tricks and she'd get genuine laughter and smiles out of us. There were no forced smiles or awkward faces. When I look at my photos, it brings back all the memories of laughter and joy on our special day. I'm so grateful we found her! All our photos are light, airy, and perfect. Thank you so much, Cassy!”

My name is Mallory, and I am a fine art film wedding photographer based out of Southern California & available worldwide. Growing up I always had a creative mind. I felt drawn to the camera but never knew why, or that one day it would become one of my main purposes in life. I began my business in 2012 and can honestly say that I have never looked back. I would describe my style as delicate, romantic, elegant, but most importantly - timeless.

“Mallory is the epitome of a professional photographer but embodies the comfort of a best friend. She has truly honed her craft and is wonderful to work with. She has made my camera-shy husband feel at ease during our engagement shoot, & she has incredible attention to detail. Her photos are timeless and elegant, and the photos she has taken of me and my husband are my absolute favorite. I whole-heartedly recommend Mallory to anyone looking for classic jaw-dropping film photographs they will cherish forever.”

“Jenny Markham Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the beginning, Jenny was open to all of our ideas and easily accessible, making the planning process a breeze. Her whimsical style and ability to capture photos with a sense of motion and energy were exactly what we were looking for. I remember Jenny told me that she would never make us do anything just for a photo and would never make us do anything twice - she wanted our photos to be natural, which I loved. On the day of the wedding, Jenny fit seamlessly into the background, working hard to capture all of the special moments, both big and small. She found the perfect spot for our first look and even helped me recreate some shots I had seen on Pinterest. Jenny was also flexible and accommodating when we surprised her with a first look request with my dad and grandfather. We are thrilled with the beautiful, dedicated photos that Jenny delivered, and we would highly recommend her to any couple looking for a talented, personable photographer to document their wedding day.”

“From our first conversation with Adam Levinstein Photography, we knew we had found the right fit (we were also referred to Adam by a friend)! He listened closely to what we wanted and responded to every question quickly and thoughtfully, which made planning feel easy and stress-free. During our engagement shoot and on the day of our wedding, Adam and his team went above and beyond—he helped my husband feel comfortable in front of the camera despite being shy about photoshoots, and he helped recommend the perfect location for our bridal party photos when we weren't sure where to go. Their work is truly professional yet fun and adventurous, capturing moments that feel authentic and special. The team was super accommodating in helping us capture everything about our wedding that we wanted, from the shot list to also capturing memories in the moment. The cherry on the top was having polaroid prints of photos that were taken THAT day were printed and placed in our sweethearts' table floral arrangements as a surprise and delight! We were blown away with the sneak peeks that arrived on Monday after our Friday evening wedding—the photos were absolutely beautiful and we can't wait to see the rest. Adam and his team made our wedding day better in so many ways, and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for a photographer who genuinely cares.”

Awarded Best of Zola
“After deciding to elope in Saguaro National Park - Tucson, AZ, I felt very lost in finding a photographer who didn't fit the mold of traditional wedding venue photographers. I was so lucky Diana popped up first in our search and her galleries embodied everything we were looking for: adventurous, professional, detailed, and most importantly her galleries were not posed and captured the raw/real moments. She had also captured dozens of elopements in SNP (in addition to many other NPs) which made us feel super comfortable in trusting her for our day. From our first call, Diana immediately helped us create a timeline for our day which allowed us to then finalize all the remaining details and schedule all our other vendors (which was SO helpful as we didnt need a coordinator with our elopement!) Diana is also very knowledgeable of the National Park and picked out a stunning location for our ceremony amongst giant saguaros. Before the wedding, Diana was on top of communication being very proactive and sent us multiple recommendations for the area. On the day of our elopement, Diana arrived early and stayed late. She captured all the details and important moments we discussed before hand and helped us stick to our schedule. Then after the wedding, Diana had already sent us the sneak peaks the very next day!!! Then she also turned around our full gallery sooner than expected! We are so incredibly grateful we found Diana and do not have enough good things to say about her and her business. Thank you so much for capturing the best day of our lives!”

“I first discovered Intertwine Films while researching videographers who had worked at our venue, Circle Oak Ranch in Fallbrook, CA. Right away, I fell in love with their ability to capture raw emotion and weave it into a genuine, beautifully told story. When it came to our own wedding, they exceeded every expectation. From start to finish, Bryan, Ray, and Kevin were incredible to work with. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and sheer artistry are unmatched. On the wedding day, Ray and Kevin handled on-site filming and worked seamlessly alongside our photographer. They were completely unobtrusive, letting the day flow naturally while still finding those intimate, fleeting moments to capture special shots. We couldn’t be happier with the final videos—the 1-minute highlight reel, the breathtaking 5-minute cinematic “movie,” and having the raw footage to relive every memory. The emotion, storytelling, and quality they delivered are simply magical. I’ve honestly rewatched our films almost daily (sometimes multiple times a day!).

Their talent was evident in every shot they took - from the intimate moments between me and my partner to the candid shots of our friends and family enjoying themselves. But what truly sets this wedding photographer apart is their ability to capture not just moments, but emotions. Looking through our wedding album brings back all of the feelings from that day - the excitement, love, happiness, and even a few tears. It's like reliving the entire experience all over again. I highly recommend this exceptional wedding photographer to any engaged couple looking for more than just someone to take photos on their big day. They are a true professional who goes above and beyond to make sure you have an amazing experience. Trust me, your wedding memories will be in great hands with this talented individual behind the camera lens.”

I’m Renz, the owner of Seorak Studios. I began capturing moments over 10 years ago with a passion for photography, and storytelling. Today, my business partner and I have rebranded to Seorak Studios, a photo and video company that provides high quality, on-location coverage for engagements and weddings. From initial brainstorm and concept development to final delivery, we take a thoughtful, hands-on approach to every project by working closely with all of our clients. Our goal is to capture your special day and document moments that feel authentic, artful, and unforgettable.

“Me and my now husband had a great full day engagement session with Seorak Studios and specifically Renz Gonzaga at Disneyland and DCA! We were able to work together on the ideal shots and overall inspiration beforehand and the day of Renz got straight to it, making our dream Disney photoshoot come true! The photos looked great on both large prints and digitally, which was important for us since we wanted to hang them around our home. He made us feel comfortable and gave cues to get the best poses. We definitely recommend bringing your fun shoot ideas to Renz and Seorak Studios, he’s a pro at making the moments come to life on camera!”

Laid back + artist at heart + always down for a good party! I've been shooting artful and meaningful weddings since 2012 and loving every minute- meeting new people and helping to tell a part of their story makes it all worthwhile and is an honor I don't take lightly!

“Completely in command of her camera and of the room, Amy will not only guide you through feeling confident during the photography process, she furthers the value of her service in her image editing process, as she spends time editing each of her images individually to perfection. So grateful to have worked with such a talented proffesional.”

Morgan Wiltse Photo Co.

My love for photography began as young as 12 but the passion came as soon as I welcomed my first son, Liam. Motherhood is a busy busy life and the camera keeps all the memories fresh. I love, love. Nothing makes me smile bigger than a surprise engagement, or the welcoming of a new baby. I really try to get to know my clients and visualize their lives before I even attempt to capture their story - because that story is what MAKES the shot!

“Expressions Productions was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. Their communication style was excellent - they were never intrusive and were incredibly thoughtful about how we wanted to interact with our vendors. The quality of their work and the value they provided was worth every penny, as the results were unbelievable. They showed up ahead of time, prepped everything, and even assigned an assistant to help guide our guests for pictures with us. They made the entire photography process easy and smooth, allowing us to simply enjoy our special day. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding photography experience.”

“Highly recommend David and Blanca Photography! They are truly amazing at what they do and such a pleasure to work with. They were so accommodating to plan changes and unforeseen delays on our end the day of the wedding, and they made sure to get all of our requested shots and then some. Their vision and direction for our portraits gave us the most beautiful memories of our wedding day, and we are so grateful to have had their services.
