About Vanessa Montano Photography

Vanessa Montano Photography

Owner/Photographer

Follow me on Instagram *vanessamontanophotography I’m Vanessa—Bay Area born and raised, living my dream under the California sun with a camera always close by. When I’m not documenting life’s beautiful moments, I’m likely in the kitchen testing new recipes, catching up with friends over a dirty martini, cruising with country music turned up, or spending time with my family. Photography isn’t just my work—it’s something I truly love. I feel incredibly grateful to witness and capture so many meaningful stories.

I blend natural light, genuine candid moments, and an editorial touch to create images that feel both effortless and cinematic. Your wedding gallery will tell your story with emotion, beauty, and a timeless feel you’ll treasure for years to come. 😄

    We are so happy we had the opportunity to have Vanessa capture our special day! The quality of her work is exceptional, with beautiful colors and candid moments filled with love. Vanessa constantly checked in to make sure we got the shots we wanted, and went above and beyond to focus on capturing the special interactions between our family and friends. We couldn't be happier with the final photos - they truly helped make our special day even more memorable.

    From start to finish, working with Vanessa was an absolute dream. We knew our wedding photos would be important, but the moments she captured completely exceeded all of our expectations. From the very first consultation to the final delivery of our images, every step of the process was seamless, professional, and filled with care. On the day of our wedding, Vanessa was not only incredibly skilled but also a calming and positive presence. They blended into the day perfectly, capturing candid moments without ever being intrusive. The photos are a perfect mix of breathtaking portraits and those spontaneous, emotional snapshots that tell the story of the day. From the laugh-filled getting ready shots to the tender first look, every photo is a work of art. Thank you Vanessa for giving us the gift of such stunning memories — these photos are treasures we will cherish forever!

    I got married in Napa Valley and didn't know who to hire for my professional pictures. The venue recommended a few names and after contacting Vanessa I knew that is who I wanted to work with. She was very caring and patient. She was on time and didn't disrupt the moment when I was getting ready, instead she made it special. She gave us poses to do and talked to the venue to make sure we could go to a little bridge I wanted to take pictures at. I highly recommend her!!

    Response from vendorDec 17, 2025
    Thank you so much for your thoughtful review, Paula. It was such an honor to photograph your Napa Valley wedding, and I’m truly grateful your venue connected us. Creating a calm, supportive experience—especially during those meaningful getting-ready moments—is always a priority for me, and I’m so glad it helped make your day feel even more special. I loved working with your venue to capture portraits at the bridge you envisioned, and I’m thrilled you’re happy with the experience and images. Thank you again for trusting me as your Napa Valley wedding photographer and for the heartfelt recommendation.
