Jen Peterson Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (13 reviews)
·Ratings include Zola and Google reviews
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves Shasta Lake, CA

HELLO THERE! I’m Jen! A Portrait, Wedding, and Real Estate photographer located in the beautiful Northern California area. With many years of experience and a consistent style; I deliver images that are radiant, joyful, and everlasting. But even more than the photos I deliver, I believe that my clients deserve the BEST photographic EXPERIENCE possible. I am a mom and step-mom to four beautiful children and am a devoted wife to Matt (who is also my second shooter on wedding days as a matter of fact!). I’m so excited that you stopped by, I would love to learn more about you!

“My husband and I recently had the privilege of working along Jen and her husband Matt as our wedding photographers. A week before our wedding, we received some unfortunate news that our original photographer was no longer able to shoot our wedding, based on an unfortunate situation. Immediately, she reassured me that we would be in the best hands with Jen Peterson Photography. As you can imagine, that's a lot to take in so close to your wedding day, but as soon as I spoke to Jen on the phone (whom I've never met), all my nerves slipped away! It was as though I had known her for years. She truly is the most kindhearted, genuine, and uplifting person I've ever had a chance to work with! The fact the her and Matt graciously agreed to shoot our wedding, no questions asked and so last minute, speaks of their character. Fast forward to our wedding, they far exceeded every expectation we had! From wrangling in two extended families, to dealing with the sweltering summer heat, nothing stopped them. Throughout the entire day, she made sure EVERY photo was perfect. Also, I can honestly say that in all the weddings I've attended, I never witnessed a photographer mingle amongst the guests to take their photo's to help the bride and groom relive their special day. While we were eating, Jen and Matt choose to take a break, instead, they captured so many wonderful, memorable photos of our guests that I am forever grateful for! Small details such as those are things you don't think to ask for, but they they took the initiative, and for that, I can not thank them enough. After our wedding, I was equally as impressed by how quickly Jen submitted our proofs to us. Upon reviewing them, EVERY single moment of our day was captured. The quality of our photos were breathtaking! Please do yourself a favor and use Jen Peterson Photography for your special day. You will be thoroughly impressed by their expertise , quality of work, and as a result, you'll be gifted the most amazing photos to look back on for years to come.”

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.”

Vargas Visuals 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Shasta Lake, CA

I have been doing hobby photography for 10 plus years. My interest started when I was in high school, mainly focusing on portrait photography. As I got older, my interests grew into landscape, sports, weddings, events and just about everyday life. While my interests grew, I knew I wanted to make this more than a hobby for myself. I am a wife, mom, a family girl and I believe not every moment happens perfectly. Sometimes the best moments are loud, messy, emotional, silly, spontaneous and completely unplanned. And those are the moments I love to capture.

“We had an incredible experience with Vargas Visuals from start to finish. The photographer was responsive and easy to work with throughout the planning process, which made everything feel smooth and stress-free. On our wedding day, she took her time to make sure every detail was perfect before capturing each shot, and it really paid off in the final images. Her work exceeded what we expected, and the photos are absolutely stunning. We felt so comfortable around her, which helped us relax and just enjoy the moment. We'd recommend Vargas Visuals to any couple looking for someone who truly cares about getting it right.”

Look... I want to be as honest as possible with anybody that looks at this page. I am an amazing photographer and I've been on this platform for a little over a year now. I get a ton of looks but then that's it and I'm not sure what to do to change that. So I want to save this. Every single wedding that I shoot is a custom wedding that I've created from the beginning. My couples mean more to me than anything in the world. I would love the opportunity for you to see what I can do.

His expertise came to light when shooting photos and EVERYTHING was a photo opportunity! From our initial communication to finalizing timelines to the actual wedding day, my husband and I had a BLAST working with Jeramie.

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Awarded Best of Zola
“Michaela and I got married on September 6, 2026 at The Madison in Cleveland, and booking Sean was one of the best decisions we made. Before the big day, Sean checked in with several times, making sure our vision would come to life. His attention to detail during these touch points was so appreciated. He did a great job of condensing the things that both my wife and I wanted.  On the day itself, Sean was calm, professional, and genuinely easy to be around. He had a way of making us feel comfortable, so nothing felt stiff or overly posed. He kept things moving without ever making us feel rushed, and he seemed to be everywhere at once. Our guests loved him too! He went out of his way to make sure we got every family photo we wanted, which took a LOT of stress off of us. Family photos can get chaotic, and he handled it like a pro. When we got the gallery, we were blown away. The first look, the toasts, the sunset photos, the dance floor, he nailed every single one. The editing is perfect, but what really got us is that the photos tell the story of our day from start to finish. He caught moments we didn't even know happened, and we've already gone through the whole gallery more times than we can count. If you're looking for a photographer, book Sean. You won't regret it. Thank you, Sean, for giving us memories we'll have forever!”

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”

Hi, I'm Georgy Shishkin — a wedding and elopement photographer with over 19 years of experience capturing love stories in breathtaking landscapes. 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
“We eloped. Just the two of us, mountains around, wrapped in a checkered blanket with our hearts racing and headlights glowing behind us — and Georgy somehow turned all of that into pure poetry. These are, without exaggeration, the most beautiful photos we’ve ever had taken. Not just because of the location or the light (which were stunning), but because Georgy captured something deeper: how we felt. The joy, the quiet, the closeness, the nervous laughter… every photo feels like a little window back into that day. He made us feel completely comfortable, even in the middle of wild nature. It never felt staged or forced — just natural, gentle, and easy. Georgy gave us space to be ourselves and somehow still knew exactly when to click the shutter. We’re so grateful. These images are more than wedding photos — they’re memories we’ll carry forever. If you’re considering booking Georgy: do it. He has an incredible eye, a calming presence, and a gift for turning fleeting moments into timeless art. Thank you!!!”

“Madison's not just someone with a camera and capability, she's a photographer with a natural good eye as well. We appreciated her clean subject alignments/angles and more true-to-color editing and were very impressed by the pictures we got back from reception, where we had pretty complex indoor lighting: A whole wall of windows behind us most of the time and then dark brown ballroom lighting into the evening (@Loews Hotel). Not to mention, we asked her to minimize using flash as a personal preference and she was so receptive and remembering of that too. Communicating with her was like talking to a friend. She was responsive, engaged, and inclusive. Could go on and on, but her images speak for themselves because she is consistent both in her photography style as well as personality!”

““True Light” is the perfect name for Calea’s photography business as she absolutely embodies this. From the moment Calea arrived she exuded such a warm, calming presence that made me and my whole family feel totally comfortable, which was so important especially while I was getting ready and the nerves were getting to me. She was stellar at coordinating with the videographers, and when she had me and my husband “model” for her it was very clear how to pose and I must say, the photos look incredible. She has a beautiful eye. Right after the wedding she started sending us shots and posting on Instagram which was so fun to see, and she get us our full gallery well before the three week timeframe. The photos are absolutely stunning and perfectly capture the warmth, love and beauty of the day. We are so so happy! 10/10 would recommend Calea, she is the best!”

Based in the Reno & Lake Tahoe area, but travel encouraged. I first picked up a camera a decade ago, but it’s taken time to cultivate the relationship I have with photography today. My passion lies in capturing honest moments & documenting stories that feel real & personal. Whether it’s the joy of a wedding, excitement of an engagement, or intimacy of a quiet elopement, my goal is to create images that reflect genuine connections. When I look through the lens, the world seems to stand still, giving me the chance to catch my breath & find beauty in the moment. It allows me to create timeless images that celebrate your story & feel authentic.
