We know that decades from now you will be flipping through your photo album or watching your wedding video; overflowing with love and joy. Knowing this is what motivates us!

Gleimlight did such a great job with our engagement photos, wedding photos and our wedding video. Everytime they sent photos I was always so extremely happy with their final products. They were sooo fast getting the images back to us too. They even would send me a sneak peek photo, which was so great to get. They really care and are so easy to work with. We didnt know the first thing about how to pose for photos and they told us exactly what we needed to do to make for great photos. I highly recommend them!

I'm so excited to share my experience with photographer Oleg, and don't know where to start. My fiancé and I spent so much time on the research in order to find the best team, and best quality product, and Zaya was absolutely the right decision, besides they have exceed all the expectations we had. They managed to take all the beautiful moments (even those that I forgot) and the pictures editing was sooo perfect. Since we didn't have enough time on preparation (month only), we couldn't meet with them in advance to discuss what exactly we were looking for, but let me tell you, the real professionals do not need any guidance. The whole team are such perfectionists, and all the services they provide are for 100%. I highly recommend Oleg’s Zaya to anyone who is looking for their moments to be captured by real professionals.

I’ve been happily married for almost 27 years. I have three awesome sons. My parakeets Kiwi and Sparky are very social, meaning very loud! Champagne (maybe that’s why I love weddings) and sushi lover here! Photography has been my passion ever since my dad gave me my first film camera and introduced me to the dark room at age of 10. I lived in Japan for 12 years, and even performed on a stage there. I’m always up for a great road trip! I love tuna fishing. I love hats and want to wear them everyday (over 20 hats in my collection). I’ve been shooting beautiful weddings for almost 10 years. I secretly cry at every wedding.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Irina and Carlsbad Photo for our wedding photography, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, Irina was professional, responsive, and easy to work with. She took the time to understand our vision for the day and helped us create a timeline that would ensure we captured all the important moments. On the day of the wedding, Irina arrived early and was ready to go. She worked quickly and efficiently to capture all the details, from the getting ready process to the ceremony and reception. She even managed to get some great shots of our first dance and all the dancing that followed, which we absolutely love. When we received our photos back, we were blown away. They are absolutely stunning and perfectly capture the joy and love of our special day. We especially love the candid shots that capture all the emotions of the day. We would highly recommend Irina and Carlsbad Photo to anyone looking for a talented and professional wedding photographer. She is truly amazing at what she does, and we are so grateful that she was a part of our special day.

Hey there! I'm Linda. San Diego wedding and portrait photographer. I've been photographing weddings for 8 years and have loved every minute of it. I'd love to chat with you and share how I can help you get the best possible images on your special day while giving you a great experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the pleasure of working with Linda for our elopement, and she exceeded all expectations in every way possible. From the moment we booked her, the process was incredibly easy and user-friendly. The booking system was straightforward, and I immediately felt confident in our choice. Her communication throughout the entire process was exceptional. She was in constant touch with us, especially when it came to the venue. Not only did she provide guidance and suggestions, but she also took the initiative to visit the site earlier in the week to scout locations with the best lighting and backdrops. Her attention to detail made the day go smoothly. Our elopement took an unexpected turn when it ended up being filmed for the news, causing us to go overtime. Despite the extended hours, Linda stayed well past her scheduled time and even took stunning photos of our interviews. Her dedication to capturing every moment, even the unplanned ones, was above and beyond. With her extensive experience with elopements, particularly at the San Diego courthouse, she had a deep understanding of the best timing and locations for photos, which made everything flow effortlessly. Her knowledge truly helped us maximize our time and get the most out of our special day. On top of her professionalism and expertise, she was a delight to work with. She brought a warm and calm energy to the day, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Her price point was also very reasonable for the level of service she provided. Without a doubt, I would book her again for any future events and highly recommend her to all my friends. If you're looking for a skilled, dedicated, and genuinely wonderful photographer for your elopement, Jalea Photography is the one!

As people who aren't super comfortable taking photos to begin with, this whole process was a bit out of our comfort zone, but Brittany made the experience super enjoyable, comfortable, and fun which we really appreciated!

The California Studio is a wedding photography and videography company known for its clean, modern style and relaxed, natural approach. Based in California, they specialize in capturing real moments with artistic flair—turning love stories into timeless visual keepsakes. Whether it’s a chic city wedding or a coastal celebration, The California Studio delivers stunning imagery that feels authentic, elegant, and true to you.

From the beginning, they made us feel completely comfortable, like they truly cared about who we are—not just as a couple, but as people. On our wedding day, I barely noticed them in the moment, yet somehow they captured everything: the nerves, the laughter, the quiet looks we shared when no one else was watching. Seeing the photos for the first time actually stopped me in my tracks—they weren’t just pictures, they were us, exactly as we were that day. I’ll never stop being grateful for how honestly and beautifully they told our story.

Natalie Faiivae Photography

  • Serves Cardiff By The Sea, CA

Hello! I'm Natalie, a passionate documentary photographer dedicated to capturing the authentic and heartfelt moments of your special day. My approach to wedding photography is all about storytelling. I believe the most beautiful photos come from genuine, unscripted moments that reflect the true emotions and unique story of each individual couple. When I'm not behind the camera, you can find me spending time with my family, traveling to new places, or just cuddled up with a good show and a comfy blanket. I’m always inspired by the beauty of everyday moments and bring this inspiration into my work.

Working with Natalie was a dream. It can be overwhelming having a camera on you and all this attention on you but Natalie carries herself with such a beautiful energy that puts you at ease. She really helps pose you and feel comfortable and before you know it you’re posing on your own. The confidence really shows in her images. My husband and I couldn’t be more happy with our photos! Can’t wait to work with her again, would recommend to all of my friends!

Katie Clare Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,100
  • Serves Cardiff By The Sea, CA

I was raised in the Sierra Nevada foothills of California. I was drawn to photography in middle school and would enter photos of our family pets or family backpacking trips in our local county fair. My passion for photography grew while working as a hiking guide in Yosemite National Park. I mean… who wouldn’t want a stunning photo of Half Dome? El Capitan? Yosemite Falls? But it has been photographing wedding and couples that I find the most fun and rewarding. I have found loving hearts, wild souls, and adventurous spirits to be my people. I strive to visually capture the “spirit” of my subjects and record an emotional memory of the occasion.

Working with Katie for our wedding was an absolute dream!! Her communication was perfect, efficient, clear, and professional from start to finish. The quality of their work was truly magical, dreamy, out of this world, and amazing. I never felt like she didn't know exactly what she was doing. I would recommend Katie to anyone and everyone looking for a photographer who will capture the beauty and joy of their special day!!
