Eduardo was very nice to work with since the beginning. He is very kind and professional and just does a great job without adding any stress. He provided some portfolios of previous work he had done, which were very photo journalistic, not just the posed shots, and we knew he was the one! He definitely has an eye for placement, reflections, and catching people’s authenticity. He spent the whole wedding day with us, from getting ready all the way till the sparkler exit. I never even saw him take a break. He even ran with us to get some sunset photos at a nearby vineyard while guests were having dinner. He even got some good shots of everyone on the dance floor without being too in your face, I didn’t even notice he was there! We got all of the photos we wanted and more. Eduardo definitely doesn’t treat his clients as a number, he understands the importance of the day and ensures that he captures it in a way that tells the story of the day. Highly recommend Eduardo for your photography needs!

Randall de Leon Photography

Los Angeles, CA

  • 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 can’t say enough great things about Randall! Our journey with him started when he captured our surprise proposal, and from that moment, we knew he was the perfect photographer for us. He also did our engagement photos, and when it came time to choose a wedding photographer, it was an easy decision—it just felt right to have him document another milestone in our lives. Randall is not only incredibly talented, but he also made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. His style perfectly captures who we are, and we love how natural and authentic his photos feel. He was also so accommodating, even when we made last-minute changes to our engagement shoot location. We are beyond grateful for the beautiful moments he captured, and we know that when the time comes for future milestones, Randall will be our go-to photographer. Highly recommend!

From our first contact with Te Dua Weddings, their communication style was quick, relatable and reassuring. The quality of their work was truly elegant, personal, elevated and storytelling. They had a calm presence throughout the day and even helped carry my dress train when I was worried about it getting dirty. It felt like the Te Dua team was there not only as a vendor, but as friends who wanted our wedding to feel personal and seamless. They really cared about us as clients rather than just getting the shot. The video was delivered fast and beautifully, capturing all the special moments of our day. We could not have asked for a better videography team to document our wedding.

Every love is unique and it is truly a passion of mine to authentically capture it in whatever way is unique to each story.

I can’t say enough amazing things about Nichole at Mates of Soul! From the moment we met, she made us feel so comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. Neither of us are big “posed photo” people, but Nichole captured everything so naturally — every smile, laugh, and candid moment felt so genuine. She has the best personality — fun, upbeat, and such great energy — it honestly felt like hanging out with a friend who just happened to be taking the most beautiful photos ever! She got every shot I hoped for (and then some!) and made the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish. Our photos are absolutely stunning, and every time I look at them, I’m reminded of how fun the day was. I’d recommend Nichole a thousand times over to anyone looking for not only incredible photos, but an incredible person behind the camera.

Wedding happened in August 2022 in my parents’ backyard, and the pictures made it look like a magazine shoot. The video had perfect music choices too. Few spelling mistakes in the photo book text, but that’s ok, the images speak for themselves

Deanna was truly the most amazing photographer for our wedding! Neither my husband nor I had ever taken professional photos before, and to be honest, we’re both pretty awkward and camera-shy. But from the moment we booked her, she made the whole experience feel effortless. She even offered an engagement session, which helped us get comfortable in front of the camera. By the end of it, we were blown away by how beautiful the photos turned out—far beyond what we had imagined! On the wedding day, Deanna was more than just a photographer; she was a calming presence amidst all the excitement and nerves. Her ability to guide us through poses felt so natural—never forced or uncomfortable. She has such an incredible eye for capturing genuine moments, and the photos reflect that in every frame. Deanna didn’t just document our wedding; she became a friend along the way. I can’t express how much we appreciate her talent, kindness, and professionalism. We’re already looking forward to working with her again for future milestones and photo sessions. Thank you, Deanna, for capturing our special day so perfectly—we couldn’t have asked for more!

Awarded Best of Zola
We found Lulan Studios about nine months before our wedding day. We were immediately drawn in by their professionalism and their reputation. Lulan is an inclusive photographer who was very receptive to our wedding vision. He and his team were incredibly kind, supportive, and helpful all throughout the process. We elected to go with Lulan Wang himself for our photographer who worked with an associate. After our initial consultation we were turned over to Shannon who was our go to contact for day to day clarifications and vendor contact until Lulan took over just before the wedding. Shannon was immensely resourceful and responsive. She communicated with our coordinator very efficiently and was always on top of our booking. We are very grateful to her as well for making the process so easy and for continuing that communication after the fact. On the day, Lulan and his associate were spectacular. It was clear his associate had more than enough talent for the job just like Lulan, but they divided and concurred by using two different types of cameras for different types of shots. We regret not doing an engagement session with them, but we will likely return for an Anniversary session in the future. We didn’t even need one though, because he is skilled enough that he understood us as a couple immediately. They made us feel comfortable and confident. They hyped us up and moved through the shot list masterfully. Nothing was missed and we captured far more than we expected. Please look through our attached photos as they speak for themselves. One of the most exciting moments was when Lulan handed us a little blue book filled with about fifteen physically printed preview photos DURING THE RECEPTION. A lovely surprise that absolutely shocked me. Turnover was 4-6 weeks and we got ours just before the six week mark right on schedule. We were floored. They are jaw-dropping. We ultimately got 950 photos permanently digitally available for high resolution download and access to a shop with impressive options for prints and albums of a wide array of types and sizes. I’m thrilled to show them to you here and implore you to consider booking Lulan Studios. We trusted in their ability from the beginning and we were not disappointed. They are among if not the absolute best in the business.

From start to finish, working with Fatima was an absolute dream. After researching countless photographers online, she was my number one choice! I booked our elopement just three months in advance and was so relieved she was available. Throughout the whole process she was so incredibly kind, professional and thoughtful that, despite our short timeline, we were able to feel at ease. My (now) husband and I are both quite shy in front of the camera and were worried that we might look stiff, but Fatima was able to quell those worries and capture us exactly how we had hoped - in a very natural and organic light. All in all, Fatima went above and beyond for us in so many ways - from setting up a last minute meeting the week before to go over details (and ease my anxiety) to unexpectedly serving as our witness! She even sent us our full gallery a few weeks earlier than we had expected. We are so pleased with how everything turned out and so grateful to have worked with such a talented artist (and AMAZING human). We'll definitely be booking Fatima for our next milestones 3

We feel so incredibly lucky to have had Tom Keene of LA Digital Photo photograph our wedding at the California Club in Los Angeles. He stepped in on very short notice, yet somehow still managed to exceed every expectation we had. From the moment he arrived, Tom brought a calm, professional, and joyful presence to the day. He guided us through poses effortlessly, was impressively efficient with our (very large and lively!) family group photos, and managed to capture the energy and emotion of the entire afternoon so beautifully. Everything felt seamless and stress-free in his hands—something every couple hopes for on their wedding day. One of the most special moments of the day was a quiet conversation we shared with Tom on the patio before dinner. That simple, grounding exchange stood out to us—and the photo he took in that moment is one we’ll definitely be framing. It was such a meaningful pause amid the excitement, and his warmth made it even more memorable. And then there were the sneak peek photos—delivered that same night! We were blown away by how stunning they turned out. If those were just the previews, we can't wait to see the full gallery. Tom went above and beyond in every way, and we’re genuinely so grateful he was a part of such an important day in our lives. We wholeheartedly recommend him to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and truly thoughtful wedding photographer. —Sienna & Stephen

I'm Katherine, a wedding photographer based in Oakland, CA. With over a decade of experience and features in Vogue, Brides, The New York Times, and more, I know how to create wedding photos that don’t just look stunning — they feel like you. No trendy filters, no forced poses, just authentic moments that reflect who you are. I believe the best moments aren’t staged. They unfold naturally, in the quiet glances, the belly laughs, and those unspoken connections shared with your loved ones. My goal is to capture those raw, in-between moments that truly make your wedding day yours!

Holy smokes! If you're looking for a photographer in California/Bay Area who's not just talented but an absolute blast to work with, look no further. We just had our engagement shoot, and let me tell you, Katherine is the real deal. Her personality is so infectious, we forgot we were even doing a photoshoot. Before we knew it, we were laughing, being silly, and just having fun with what felt like an old friend. She asked us all the right questions that made us feel at ease and boy, did it show in the photos. TLDR? If you don't book her, you're missing out big time. I would 1000% recommend her.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Isaac’s photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking.
