“We originally hired another photographer, but she was no longer available for our wedding, but she helped us find Lori. I am so grateful for this! Lori was amazing for both our Engagement Session and Wedding! She did an amazing job with the photos and lighting, and carried out our vision.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Riverside, CA

My name is Sergio. My wife Desirée and I run LOVE by Sergirée together out of Los Angeles. I have been behind a camera for 15 years and weddings are where I do my best work. I shoot every wedding personally and edit every gallery myself, so what you see in our portfolio is exactly what you get. Desirée leads everything you cannot see, from the first email to the final album. Whether you are planning an intimate ceremony or a celebration with a full guest list, our approach is the same. Be present. Be honest. Let the moment unfold.

“From the initial communication all the way to the delivery of the photos, Sergirée were great to work with. They were super friendly, patient, and flexible with the entire process. During my actual wedding/celebrations, Sergio just had a chill and approachable demeanor about him that I really appreciated. Our wedding wasn't the most structured, so I was worried about getting the "right" shots, but Sergio was great at guiding for poses, and just always at the right place at the right time to catch so many beautiful moments. Also, they work super fast! We received our highlight shots and full gallery very quickly. Book them!!”

We approach every wedding with a documentary style rooted in candid moments. We're all about creating an environment where you feel relaxed and free to just be yourselves in front of the camera.

“I cannot recommend Alex and Jana Photography enough. We worked closely with Alex, who is incredibly professional, communicative, and really put us at ease through the whole process. On our wedding day, Alex and Toby made us feel so calm and my husband and I ended up having such a blast taking photos (which was a surprise to us both, since we are not normally comfortable at all in front of the camera). We just got our sneak peaks back after less than two weeks after the wedding, and are absolutely blown away by the shots that they captured. Truly could not have picked a better photographer for our big day!!”

Hello, I'm Khoa (aka Banh Mi Photographer), I will be your local professional photographer today. Don't know how to start your event? Schedule a call with me, I will give you best deals, plus a Free Photobooth. We are also in partner with NKPics for videography, book them through us, you got 10 to 15% discount also. Feel free to text me or ask me anything, I will be here to help you on planning your wedding.

“I'd like to start this review off with a very heartful: Thank You Khoa Bui. Communication from day one to after the wedding event has been superb. No question was left unanswered, and no doubts were harbored throughout our entire engagement with TogetherBooth. Our man Khoa is highly punctual and formal. With myself and the bride being wedding newbies, our photographer was very respectful of that fact and helped guide us through some of the more grey areas of "what do we do next?" He made sure that the iconic moments weren't forgotten by the end of the night and helped nudge us in the right direction if we looked too confused. Talk about a superstar assistant! Every moment, we felt like the stars of the show with Khoa behind the camera. His directions during photo opportunities were easy to interperet, leading to many great shots with minimal downtime. In addition, the photobooth was a huge success with the crowd! Easy to use, with a souvenir photo strip to take home. I can say I would 100% recommend both our cameraman and the photobooth setup for any occasion!”

They are so insanely skilled at their craft, Renee knows exactly how to capture every moment. Having them both there at our wedding truly made Dylan and I feel so at ease. They were so helpful, they went above and beyond. They made sure Dylan and I were good the entire time, they were constantly checking on the two of us asking if we needed anything(water, food etc). When we need photos we will make the drive out to California just to have our photos taken by Renee and Ricky. There’s no other photographer/ videographer I would recommend other than these two!

We are a team of photo & video. Our work isn’t about forcing a vibe; it’s about translating who you really are into images that feel familiar, honest, and grounded. Servicing Southern California, we don’t just show what happened — we show what mattered.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I couldn't recommend MissySure Photography more. I was in a car accident the day BEFORE my wedding day. I sprained my knee and got a second degree burn on my left hand. Not only was MissySure Photography kind, professional, and personable but they also made sure I was comfortable and allowed me take as many and as long of a break I needed. When we got the pictures back we were in love. They came out beautifully and you'd never know I burnt my hand. Her communication was prompt, thorough, and personalized, making the entire process seamless. We were sent a google poll document which allowed us to really tailor what kind of photos were important to us. We decided to elope within the month and MissySure Photography took the time to make sure we understood the process, what to expect, and how many hours was realistic for what we wanted. Day of the team was amazing. Missy was great at giving direction and posing us and making us feel comfortable behind the camera. We were able to take photos with friends, family, and even go to a second near by location because we weren't rushing. Im so thankful we were able to book MissySure Photography for our special day.”

Documentary-inspired wedding photography for couples who value honest moments, timeless imagery, and photographs that feel like home. My approach is very candid and story-driven, focused on capturing the little in-between moments that often end up meaning the most. The blurry dance floor photos, happy tears during vows and all the beautifully imperfect moments that make your wedding feel uniquely yours.

Like memories frozen in time.

Last Minute Photoshoot is run by Stephanie and Son, a husband and wife team serving couples across Southern California. Our clients usually come to us because they want certainty. Whether it’s a surprise proposal, engagement, elopement, or courthouse wedding, we’re known for being thorough, responsive, and showing up when it matters most. Many of the moments we capture come together quickly, sometimes even last minute. Our role is simple: remove the stress, guide the plan, and deliver peace of mind so you can focus on the moment.

“I cannot say enough great things about Steph and Son. From the very start of my proposal planning process, they stood by me, discussed my ideas, and helped guide me to the perfect execution. Proposing in California while traveling from out of state seemed like a large undertaking, but the two of them were informative, patient, and most importantly genuinely caring about myself and my fiancé. This truly felt like a collaborative effort and not just choosing a basic photographer. I can’t recommend them enough to anybody for a proposal, or any other event in the SoCal area.”

They always have the client's best interest in mind, they're flexible with changes, they stay on time with photos (which sadly, is rare these days!), and they go above and beyond to help make the wedding day go smoothly. That's why when I got engaged, they were one of the first people I texted. I knew I’d be able to relax and enjoy the day with Emily and Ryan there, and they exceeded every expectation. They are incredibly organized, supportive from start to finish, and the photos speak for themselves... absolutely beautiful. Their entire team has such a creative eye for detail, and they make everything feel effortless. If you’re not used to being in front of a camera, they guide you every step of the way, from how to stand, where to put your hands, and even making sure family photos look cohesive (no sunglasses, no phones in pockets, etc.). My husband also had a dream picture he wanted taken with his motorcycle, and the dedication they put into getting the perfect shot is unmatched haha I can’t express how grateful I am to the Emry team. They played such a huge role in making our day feel seamless, and I’m beyond thankful they were a part of it.”
