We are elopement & wedding photographers based in central California. It is our passion to travel near and far, to draw closer to others, and to document beautiful and organic stories. We love to hear about how your love story came to be.

I'm a passionate wedding photographer dedicated to capturing the authentic beauty and emotions of your special day. With a deep love for storytelling through timeless, fine art imagery, I focus on creating photographs that reflect the unique essence of each couple. Serving my clients with care and attention to detail is at the heart of everything I do, ensuring that your memories are preserved with love and artistry.

I'm a California native with a wanderlusting soul. I grew up in the snowy mountains of Lake Tahoe and spent my teenage years in the rainforests of Costa Rica before returning to the West Coast of the United States to study the art of wedding photography and earn my BFA with Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara, California.

Hello, I’m Megan! Legacy preserver, fine art creator, wedding photographer...and completely-obsessed dog mom. (Send me an email with a picture of your fur baby attached and see how fast I respond!) Of all the things I could share about My Sun and Stars and my work as a wedding photographer, here’s the first thing I want you to know: I don’t believe in imposing a mood onto your memories. Trendy edits, filters, and lighting choices don't add anything to the meaningful moments you share on your wedding day. In fact, they can actually detract from your remembrance of them.

I grew up on California's Central Coast and obtained a minor in Photography from Cal Poly SLO. My love for photography started in high school and has always been my sole aspiration. As a photographer, I understand that photos hold cherished memories that last a lifetime. Whether it's with family, friends, or loved ones, photos capture precious moments that we can revisit time and time again. These snapshots serve as a visual reminder of the joys we've experienced and the people we've shared them with.

I've always had a love for color and light, and a passion for landscapes and people. Ever since highschool and into college photography was just something that, no pun intended, caught my eye. I've been shooting weddings for 6 years now and there's nothing Id rather be doing. I'm married to the love of my life Rachel, sandwiches are my favorite food and I love long walks on the beach. Seriously I do :)

I don't just capture moments, I ✨create✨ them! I'm for the couples who want photos that look candid, but are actually directed so you never feel awkward!! If you're sarcastic or a dog person, I like you already...if you want emotive photos that feel like art...HIT MY LINE.

Hi! Im Rachel, the face behind EverWild Photography, happily based on the beautiful Central Coast. My approach is simple: I’m here to capture the real stuff. The kind of moments that happen in a blink—the way your partner looks at you when you’re laughing, the quiet hand squeeze before you walk down the aisle, the little glances and laughter that make your day uniquely yours. My style blends candid storytelling with a relaxed vibe, so your photos feel natural, connected, and full of emotion. Imagine flipping through your favorite memories, only prettier!

I have DJ'd 300+ weddings, and coordinated 100+ weddings since 2009. I am now shifting all focus towards photography. I've been recreationally taking photos since I was in high school, but recently I realized that wedding photography is absolutely my calling. I will be keeping prices low for a while as I help couples achieve their perfect photography vision.

Hi there, Im Savannah! I discovered my passion for photography at 15 years old, when I first picked up my grandpa’s camera and instantly fell in love with capturing moments. When I'm not behind the lens, you’ll find me enjoying sunsets, jamming out to live music, hanging out with my dog, Paisley, or savoring some authentic Italian cuisine (though Mexican food is a close second!). I cherish the joy of transforming clients into friends and hope we can connect over some of these shared interests. Whether we’re exploring new places or just hanging out in the stunning central coast, I’m eager to bring your vision to life.

I am a wedding photographer with over 15 years of experience, shooting weddings of all shapes and sizes. My style is candid, natural, and full of joy. I love light and airy editing and pictures that focus on the real emotions of your day.

I first picked up a camera in high school and was instantly obsessed with the process and possibilities of capturing images. I went on to study at The San Francisco Art Institute and transferred to The Art Center, College of Design in Pasadena, earning a BFA in Photography. I began my career as a photographer in a Los Angeles product photo studio. While working there, I found I had a talent for photo retouching. I worked as a professional retoucher for many years and know what many celebrities really look like hah! I made my way back to freelance photography after having my daughter in 2013.

Hello! I'm Mike:) I'm a Christian and dedicated father to my 3 amazing children. Some of my favorite things are adventuring, travelling, eating, reading, seeing the Angels play and going to all kinds of concerts. I am also an avid Spartan racer!

*PLEASE REACH OUT VIA WEBSITE* In the blink of an eye, you'll be in the car with your new life partner, driving away from your wedding, wondering how it all went by so fast.

I don't want you to just remember how your wedding looked, I want you to remember how it FELT. I really take the time to get to know you, grab a drink with you, hear your stories, and let your personalities shine in every image.

Welcome! I'm Renoda, and I want you to be seen—truly seen. I’ve spent years observing how diverse and LGBTQ+ couples are underrepresented in mainstream wedding media, and I’m here to change that. Your love, in all its unique, beautiful, and emotional forms, deserves to be celebrated. Photography has always been my passion—capturing memories and emotions that last a lifetime. As a Black woman in an interracial relationship, I know firsthand how it feels to be judged or overlooked. My mission is to make sure you never feel that way. When you work with me, you’ll be seen, celebrated, and cherished for exactly who you are.

Allyson has been a creative being since her feet hit the earth. She's inspired by the beauty surrounding all of us, but tends to capture it in a way not seen by everyone. Love for photography found Jill working with Allyson 9 years ago, Allyson quickly realized Jill's talent and her radiant demeanor in working with people. Jessica came walking through the studio door in 2010 for an editing position and Allyson knew the moment she walked in, she would be a part of the team. Dressed to the “T” and accessorized with a happy smile, she’s worked in nearly all capacities of AM Photography over the past 6 years.

Tina has a background in social sciences which feeds her love for learning about people and different cultures. Even though she has an ongoing case of wanderlust, she loves California and wouldn’t want to live anywhere else.
