Loes Takes Clips 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves San Jose, CA

I'm a photographer who loves, love and being able to share that through my lens is what drives everything I do. I have a deep adoration for storytelling and capturing the authentic, unscripted moments that matter most. I believe every love story is unique, and my goal is to bring excitement, ease, and a calming presence to your most important day. With a passion for preserving real emotions and meaningful memories, I aim to capture photographs that you'll cherish for a lifetime.

“Logan has been a good friend of mine for years, so asking her to photograph our engagement shoot was a no-brainer for me. Her natural ability to bring any vision to life, mixed with her unwavering work ethic, is what sets her apart. I can tell her one idea I have, and she will effortlessly create something better than I could have ever imagined. We have a 1965 Corvette in our family that I thought would be cool to use as part of our shoot. I trusted her to tell us where and how we could incorporate it, and she brought our vision to life. She goes above and beyond, even standing in the middle of the road in Carmel-by-the-Sea as cars try to pass, to bring that vision to life. Also, we are far from naturals in front of the camera. I always rely on Logan to give us ideas for how to create movement and relax. Working with someone so kind and able to make you feel comfortable is crucial, because it not only creates an outcome you will love, but you will have fun doing so as well.”

San Jose, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,000

Storytelling that's crafted with care - Timeless. Classic. true-to-life. My approach to photography is rooted in storytelling. While I absolutely love to capture the big, meaningful moments of the day, I'm equally drawn to the quiet in-between moments that often become the most treasured memories. My approach is designed to help you stay present with each other and your loved ones while I document your wedding day as it naturally unfolds. Of course, I'll provide guidance when needed, but my goal is never to pull you out of the experience—it's to preserve it.

“Sarah Fischback Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the start, Sarah was professional, attentive, kind and extremely organized. My sneak peak pictures are absolutely stunning - the photos are crisp, gorgeous and capture the natural beauty of our background as well as myself and my family in a beautiful way. Sarah had a detailed timeline for my entire day and although we got a bit off track, she did her best to get us back on schedule in a warm and kind way. At no point did I feel bombarded, as Sarah has a wonderful calmness, kindness and professionalism about her that allowed me and my wedding party to truly relax and enjoy the day. Sarah captured all the big and small moments, and I am thrilled with the results. I highly recommend Sarah Fischback Photography for any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience on their wedding day. Book her and her team and you will be able to truly enjoy! My family and all my guests were raving about her!! Thank you so much Sarah and team for all your support and incredible work!!!”

San Jose, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200

The moments you remember most aren’t usually the ones that were planned. My approach is documentary-driven and unhurried, focused on connection, movement, and the quiet in-between moments that tend to mean the most later. I work best with couples who value presence over perfection and want images that feel honest, intimate, and timeless. Whether your day is big or small, traditional or unconventional, my goal is to create space for you to be fully yourselves — and to tell your story as it naturally unfolds.

“Sharyce was amazing from the first phone call we had. Sharyce quickly became not only our photographer but a confidant and friend. She traveled from CA to WI to shoot our wedding and she was worth every single penny! Her kindness, leadership, eye for detail, creativeness and her vision brought our wedding together and we are dying to see our full wedding album!! Book her! Now!!!! Sharyce holds a level of professionalism that is unmatched, while simultaneously being a friend. As my wife and I are apart of the LGBTQ community, we would love to give her a shoutout for her love and safety towards us and our love. We will forever be grateful to Sharyce for capturing our day and building a friend in the process. Thank you for capturing every detail with so much love.”

“I cannot recommend Emily enough! We found her a few months out from the wedding and did a call to talk about our budget and our vision for our wedding. Emily was so accommodating, shaping a photography and videography package that fit us perfectly! On our wedding day she was incredibly hard working and well prepared. She makes everyone she meets feel comfortable, confident and beautiful in their pictures! On top of honoring our "shot list" and getting all of my top priorities taken care of, Emily scoped out the venue and came up with fun locations and ideas that we hadn't considered! She also played with traditional photography, shooting on film, and polaroids all of which gave us unique looks that we love!

Sean Wash Photo 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
San Jose, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,999

HEY! I'm Sean, a Bay Area native who is pretty darn handy with a camera. My full-time photography journey began after losing my job in Art Education and STEM due to the pandemic. That's when I decided to bet on myself to pursue my passion for photography as my primary career. What excites me most as a photographer are the opportunities to meet new people and collaborate with them to create incredible art. I think great photographs requires a strong interpersonal bond with the photographer and the subject and that's why wedding photography is especially fulfilling because it requires so much trust, confidence and relationship building.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Sean photographed our wedding and we couldn't have wished for a better photographer! He was a pleasure to communicate with and went above and beyond to make sure all important moments were captured, and done so in the style we wanted. He did a lot of preparation in advance, and worked tirelessly to get the best shots on the day of the wedding itself. The photographs came out beyond gorgeous! I wish we could give him 10 out of 5 stars :)”

Hi, I am Andy, a wedding and San Francisco City Hall photographer based in the Bay Area. I photograph couples who want their day to feel relaxed and unforced, while still looking polished and elegant in photos. I quietly document the real in between moments and then step in with gentle direction when you need it, so you never feel stiff or posed. From intimate City Hall ceremonies to full day weddings, I help you plan a simple timeline, find beautiful light, and make the most of every location. I personally edit each image with a clean, true to life style so your photos feel timeless and still like you many years from now.

“Andy Pol was an absolute joy to work with from the first inquiry to the final gallery. He blended into our day seamlessly, putting everyone at ease and finding those candid, emotional moments we didn’t even know were happening. His calm professionalism kept us relaxed, yet his creativity meant every shot felt fresh and personal - nothing cookie‑cutter here. We received our photos exactly when promised (within 10 days!), beautifully edited and ready to share. Friends and family still rave about how natural the images look, and we love that he surprised us with short highlight video clips as a bonus. If you want someone who truly listens, communicates clearly, and turns your wedding day into timeless art, book Andy - you’ll be so glad you did.”
