Eivan's made our wedding day wonderful! Alexander Schmidt was our photographer, and our videographer was Noah. We got our pictures back sooner than expected, and they suited the exact style we had hoped for. Communication was great, photos were easy to access, and we were allowed free download for so many pictures! One family portrait had one person not looking, otherwise people were smiling and looking in everything. Many people commented on their professionalism as well as their kindness at the wedding. Thanks, Eivan's!

If I could give above a 5 star review, I would. Kelyn, with Timeless Video, brought the energy you want on your wedding day. We felt so supported and comfortable having her be a part of our day. Hiring Timeless and having Kelyn was hands down one of the best decisions we made on our wedding day. From our very first conversation, she was very warm and professional. On the day itself, she felt more like friends than a vendor. Ultimate hype person and made sure every special moment was captured beautifully. The final video blew us away. The way they pieced together the emotions, laughter, tears and every little in between moment was honestly magical. You always hope you can relive your wedding day with footage and we sure did! Our family and friends haven't stopped raving about how incredible Kelyn was and how our footage turned out--also how much of a BLAST she had during Greek dancing!

Lauren is truly an incredible artist. She knows how to pose her clients and never made it feel awkward or forced. It’s like there wasn’t even a camera there, just a couple of friends hanging out! :) Lauren joined us for our elopement and then a couple days later for a reception with around 40 people. She was very thorough in helping us decide where we wanted the elopement to happen, and was very patient when I changed my mind 10 times. She brought me a bouquet that matched my dress and champagne bottles for us to pop. She is incredibly thoughtful and you can really see how passionate she is about what she does. She was so quick to edit and send us the photos, I seriously cannot express how much of a joy it was working with her. I never once worried about capturing these special days with Lauren there, and now we have such beautiful photos to cherish forever.

Justin also has an innate ability to make taking photos fun. We received so many compliments from our guests about how much they enjoyed having him at our wedding. And the photos speak for themselves; they are simply stunning.

I found Covenant Pictures through a friend’s recommendation, and I will forever be grateful. Planning a wedding felt overwhelming at first, but their constant support made it easier than I ever imagined. They stayed in touch regularly—sending me timelines, posing tips, shot lists, and little words of encouragement that meant the world to me. On the day itself, I was an emotional mess (in the best way), and they were the calming, positive force I didn’t know I needed. They gently guided me through portraits, made my bridesmaids laugh, and even helped bustle my dress when my mom got flustered. One of my favorite parts was how they always asked, “Do you want a photo with this person before they leave?” It felt like they were 10 steps ahead of me. My friends still talk about how professional and fun they were to be around. And to get the final edited gallery before we even got back from our honeymoon? That blew my mind. Every photo took me right back to the moment. If you're getting married—do yourself a favor and book Covenant Pictures.

Los Angeles, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
We’ve been lucky to know and work with Randall for a few years. When we finally decided to make things “official” we knew we wanted someone that does great work, that we trust, and would make us feel comfortable. We wanted our day to feel like a relaxed family event and Randall helped with that and so much more. He suggested possible locations that would meet our dream event and times to maximize the best lighting for the area. Once we settled on the location and date, he maintained excellent communication in preparation to the event to properly flesh out the day’s timetable, day of logistics, and post. On the day of our wedding he expertly directed us and our families, using the natural lighting to capture the perfect shots. We would have been lost without him, especially since no one knew how to assist with bustling my dress. During our dinner reception he seamlessly directed restaurant staff to assist in transitioning between meals/dessert/toast for more amazing shots. After the wedding he kept us updated on next steps for our pictures. Randall is truly a gem and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone special to capture their day.

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
