Awarded Best of Zola
We are absolutely thrilled with the exceptional service provided by Alli – Alexandra Wallace for our engagement and wedding photos. From the initial consultation to the final delivery (within 30 days of the date!) of the photos, every step of the process was handled smooth, organized and her creativity is amazing! On the day of the wedding, Alli went above and beyond to capture every special moment. She was well-prepared, but also incredibly personable, making everyone feel at ease in front of the camera. Her ability to blend into the background while still capturing candid, intimate moments was truly impressive. We love her style each and every photo. What sets Alli apart is her attention to detail and dedication. She knew the perfect spots for our first look, bridal shots, and family photos. She also managed to capture the essence and emotions of the day beautifully, providing us with a stunning collection of photos that we will cherish forever. As promised, the final photos were delivered well before the promised date. The quality of the images exceeded our expectations; every photo was vibrant, well-composed, and perfectly edited. It was evident that she spent time on each photo and took ownership over her work. We highly recommend Alli and her team to any couple looking for a wedding photographer who is not only talented but also dedicated to making your special day unforgettable. Thank you, Alli, for giving us such beautiful memories to look back on!

  • Serves Los Olivos, CA

A former wedding planner turned photographer, my eye for details comes second only to my heart for authentic moments of joy. With over a decade of experience in the wedding industry, it is my honor and my passion to create timeless imagery to tell your story. My mission is to preserve the memories of your wedding in the most extraordinary way.

Awarded Best of Zola
Leslie was one of the preferred vendors for our wedding venue, Wedgewood Sterling Hills, and the minute I saw her online portfolio I knew I wanted her for our wedding. Now I have beautiful photos and she’s my friend for life, so it was a win-win for me. She was extremely thorough, asking important questions about myself and my husband, to ensure that she understood US as people. I felt heard and listened to every step of the way. I remember very early in our first call I mentioned that my husband makes me ALWAYS makes me laugh with small quick quiet quips. My favorite picture from our wedding is a stolen moment from our photo hour where we’re taking a break and he’s making me laugh. I love that picture. Lastly, DO THE ENGAGEMENT SESSION. Our engagement session was SO fun. Leslie gives incredible direction, she taught us how to pose, and made us feel very supported and comfortable prior to our wedding. If I saw someone else with my engagement photos I’d be so envious of how effortless they seem (so I’m glad they’re mine).

A couple and their pets hiking in the woods...jumping in the waves at sunset...a bride dancing down the aisle...my goal is to document every scene of your story, so you can hold onto it forever. Whatever the occasion, whatever the venue, I strive to make the most out of life, capturing vibrant, authentic smiles, celebrating each moment, and spreading positive vibes. We only have one life to live...so let’s enjoy it! Though I specialize in couples photography, engagement sessions, and weddings in the Santa Barbara / Southern California area, I’m also available for maternity sessions and destination weddings.

Awarded Best of Zola
I could truly write a novel about why Sarah was the most incredible photographer/human! First and foremost, her photos are absolutely stunning. There were certain types of photos I wanted to get and she took the effort to make sure we got each one of them. My now HUBBY and me are not the biggest fans of posed photos and she made us feel comfortable with them while also getting lots of candids. I very often have a derp face in photos, and on a day where I felt so much joy and was unaware of my face, she captured the moments in between where I wasn't full-on smiling, mouth open...all the things us ladies worry about :) She not only took beautiful photos, she was very organized and communicative leading up to the day (and even after, when she has so many other weddings on the horizon!), and then worked quickly to get the shots she needed so everyone could maximize their drinking/dancing time. When my wedding planner had to leave mid-day, she stepped in to help and was just a calming presence on a day that can be quite stressful leading up to the ceremony. It takes a special kind of human to not only deal with the pressure of photographing someone's wedding but balancing the different personalities and timelines was a whole other beast, and Sarah handled everything flawlessly. Lastly, we had a small wedding of about 70 people and each person was so very intentional, and it was very important to us that we worked with someone that felt like part of our crew, that could hang with us and have a good time. Sarah felt like (and is!) a friend and joined the party to capture some really beautiful moments with our friends and family. I was so happy when she jumped in and danced to Robyn with all of us :) The cliché is true that it's the best day of your life and that it passes by so quickly, and I'm just so glad that Sarah was there to capture all the fleeting moments and also the ones that we weren't around to witness. We could not recommend her more and would shout from the mountaintops how incredible she is!

Michele was our full wedding planner. Our wedding went perfect without a single hitch and it was all thanks to Michele. We had the caterer for our rehearsal dinner drop out one week before the event and Michele found us a replacement within an hour; and the replacement caterer was a slam dunk. Everyone loved the food. On the day of the wedding and rehearsal dinner Michele and Dan did everything. And I mean everything. She set up tables, positioned flowers and welcome signs and seating charts. She ironed over disagreements with vendors and never once did we have to lift a finger. It is a common saying that the bride and groom never enjoy their own wedding but we thoroughly had a blast at ours thanks to Michele. She is forever our go-to recommendation to all our friends getting married. If she has availability to plan your wedding, book her.

His mixes are amazing and he knows exactly which song flows into the next. My wedding was full of musician guests and the amount of people (musicians and not) that came up to me saying this was the best DJ really tells you something. My sister has an upcoming wedding next year and I already recommended him as she loved the music and good times at mine. He really got the crowd excited and followed cue lines to introduce different events happening that night. He was extremely professional and on top of it.

Brittany is an UNBELIEVABLY talented photographer. It was an incredible gift to be able to relax on my wedding day and fully trust that Brittany would capture everything. Our venue was at a private residence rather than a traditional wedding venue so, naturally, Brittany had never been there before yet, in an instant, she scoped out all the best spots to shoot, both indoors and outdoors, and she single-handedly captured the entire day after our second shooter called out sick. Our photos are STUNNING. She is a true artist. Had I been offered the choice of any photographer in the world, I still would've chosen Brittany. I think it might be impossible for anyone to not love her work. As a bonus, she is an absolute gem of a human being and someone you just want to be around. Thank you, Brittany, it was an honor to have you capture our wedding.

This was an incredible venue for a much more reasonable cost compared to other Santa Barbara options. We did reception only for 5000. The building itself is beautiful. The courtyard is spacious and well cared for. We also used their indoor auditorium space which had so much old school charm. Beautiful stained glass window, plenty of bathrooms, and so much space for dancing! There’s even a stage, although we didn’t use it. They also have lots of rental packages you can add on. We got all of our reception furniture (tables and chairs) for an additional 1200. We worked with Joanie from the Unitarian society who was so helpful! They are definitely firm on a few rules but overall it was all very reasonable and we had an incredible experience. Definitely recommend!

Angie, you were absolutely incredible to work with. We had a wonderful time partnering with Angie to create our dream wedding. She was recommended to us by our venue, The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, and we are so happy we chose her! Angie has such a positive personality, always kept everything under control, and never let us feel overwhelmed. It was so smooth at times we wondered what we were forgetting, and Angie always reassured us that we had it all covered. She did it ALL - from getting our vendor rates and availability sorted to showing us all our options and details that made the day come to life. Through our regularly scheduled calls and all the messaging in between, she asked all the right questions to help guide the process, (even for things we hadn't even thought about) and was always available for the one-off questions and to keep us sane, especially during those final two critical months before the big day. Angie also has a wonderful website that organized all our to-do lists, inspo pics, budget info, timelines, vendor details, etc. We didn’t realize how essential something like this was for keeping us on track, and it was little extra details like this that made such a difference. It's because of Angie that we had such wonderful vendors, a significantly less painful planning experience, and a flawlessly executed wedding day!

What impressed me even more was how gracefully they adapted to the day’s hiccups. Despite less-than-ideal direction, they rolled with the punches and got creative, making sure to capture everything beautifully and meaningfully. I truly can’t recommend her enough—professional, talented, calm under pressure, and just an overall joy to work with. Book her. You won’t regret it!

I have seen Albert’s work from afar for years and to say he is a good photographer is a compete understatement. He went above and beyond our expectations ! He is truly an expert in his craft , not only did he have great recommendations for the location, he was timely, friendly, & gave excellent direction on how we were to pose for each photo. We booked Albert for a pre-wedding photoshoot and honestly amidst all of the chaos and confusion that goes with wedding planning he was the one aspect that we did not have to second guess at all. I would highly recommend Chernogorov Photography for Any & All looking for diligence and efficiency !

Brenda and her team were so helpful and made sure our day was perfect! She was quick to respond on any questions we had and was always willing to help via call or email. Choosing vendors is never an easy task, but with Brenda’s help and wonderful advice choosing all our vendors was totally achievable. We knew nothing about wedding planning or where to even start, but with deadlines that Brenda gave us and timelines everything seemed to go together and planning a wedding actually made sense. Everyone who was able to attend our wedding has said it was “one of the best weddings ever” and they loved how everything was setup, and none of that would’ve been done without the Gathering for Goods team. Our wedding was the most memorable, relaxing, and enjoyable experience for us and many of our family and friends as well! Without Brenda and her team we would’ve been much more stressed and lost. There isn’t a thing we would’ve changed about our wedding, Brenda you’re an amazing wedding coordinator. Thank you to the entire Gathering for Goods Team for helping create a memory we will cherish forever!! - The Rainbolts

Her and her team were able to expertly execute my day and we’re outstanding partners throughout the entire planning process. They helped me get tire grease out of my dress, they made sure that my fiancé showed up to the ceremony on time, and they expertly handled multiple family members in our processional. They are able to make outstanding recommendations for any and all vendors that you’re looking for, and they even do their own floral arranging if that’s something you’re interested in.
