Katherine was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer! She arrived on time, was very friendly and has an approachable demeanor. I mentioned to her that I was expecting at the time of the wedding photoshoot which she took into much consideration by making sure we took breaks in-between and offered me water throughout the entire event.

We specialize in capturing wedding day celebrations with a timeless, candid, documentary-style approach. We’re drawn to natural light, authentic emotion, and the real moments that make your day uniquely yours.

David and Hailey from The Brews Photography were such a dream to work with! When I was looking for a photographer, I was a little overwhelmed with all the planning. After speaking with Hailey she immediately made me feel less stressed about planning the photography part of our wedding . She was able to answer every question I had for her and she instantly put me at ease. She was easy to communicate with and helped us pick the perfect location, based on her experience for our engagement shoot. When it came to the wedding day, David and Hailey worked like a true team. David photographed my husband and his groomsmen and Hailey stayed with myself and my bridesmaids. They both were incredibly professional, attentive, friendly and time conscious about the whole days events. Anyone would be lucky to have The Brews as their wedding photographers!

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $6,000

I’m a small town girl living in the big city of San Diego. You know the saying, “Home is where the heart is?” For me it has two meanings. If home is a physical place, mine is the magical little town where I was born – Ojai, California. It is a place where people can breathe deep and feel the wholeness of their lives. It's a magical little valley of peace happiness. If home is truly where the heart is, then mine is my family. In 2016, I married my best friend and the father of our beautiful son and daughter. We are a squad of awesomeness and those three hold my heart in the palm of their hands.

Morgan will be your best friend, wedding planner and confidant aside from taking the most beautiful pictures!! I can’t imagine anyone else to have taken our beautiful engagement & wedding pictures and look forward to taking family pictures in the future! She loves to travel so even if you’re not based in CA, reach out to her! Look no further, Morgan is the best of the best!

Im a San Diego based wedding photographer who specializes in shooting film. I love shooting in natural light and capturing people as they are. I try not to pose but to create photos that tell your story as a couple.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so happy we chose Colman as our wedding photographer! We can't stop looking at all the beautiful photos from our wedding at Scripps Seaside Forum, a somewhat atypical venue that Colman (and his second photographer Miro) did a great job shooting at. Colman is so friendly and really put us at ease thoughout the whole process, and was flexible in accommodating our desire to balance some great posed photos with also having plenty of time to enjoy ourselves and talk to our guests. He was also extraordinarily generous in taking several glamour shots of our guests which have been so fun to send out to our loved ones. We also appreciated the included engagement shoot prior to the wedding, which aside from the photos provided an opportunity for us to get to know Colman a little before the hectic wedding day. Colman shoots on both film and digital, which we love, and the product is the perfect combination of elevated and natural. We have some gorgeous traditional shots, some really fun ones, and several beautifully artistic ones that we'll cherish forever. They feel timeless and capture all the joy of our wedding day. We are so grateful and highly recommend Colman!

  • Classic style

I have traveled and photographed weddings and engagement shoots all over the country including internationally. I still get nervous before every wedding I photograph. If I didn’t have nervous tension, I probably would have lost the drive and passion for what I love doing the most. The reason for my love of wedding photography is simple: I love spending the day with brides and grooms creating wedding day memories that will last a lifetime. I hunt for moments that cannot be recreated or relived. I love capturing the raw emotion of a wedding day. I want to be the best not only for myself but especially for my clients.

Just book Peter! You won’t regret it. Super cool and personable from our visit video call with him. He was very flexible with our engagement shoot and generous with his time. Let me tell you…his vision!? Oh my. We have GORGEOUS photos from our engagement sesh as well as our wedding. I literally could not believe my eyes once I saw the photos! Anyone can take photos but Pete has the vision and artistic eye for epic photos! I cannot recommend him enough!

I cherish the moments spent with my family. Watching my kids grow and experience life has been inspiring, scary, and exciting at the same time. Life moves pretty fast, so you don't want to miss it. One of the reasons I love photography so much is because a photo has the ability to instantly bring us back in time to a particular moment and relive the emotion and joy that it captured. I love spending time with old friends and making new friends. Getting to know couples and capturing the intimate moments of their special days is incredibly rewarding and I consider myself very fortunate to truly love what I do for a living

We loved working with Jason, he did both our engagement shoot and wedding photos. Jason is very professional, talented, communicative, and easy going- which is exactly what we were looking for. We would highly recommend him for your special day or any shoot.

Hi & Welcome to Otto Kelly Photography. My name is Susan and I am the Lead Photographer. Otto Kelly Photography is also a wife & husband team when hiring both Photo + Video. We are San Diego based and have been capturing weddings since 2016. We love traveling throughout Southern California and get the opportunity to capture so many amazing couples every year.

Susan was amazing to work with. My fiance and I were wanting formal engagement photos for our Save the Dates and social media and the photos turned out amazing! Susan was very communicative and easy to coordinate with. She was so knowledgeable, friendly and professional with helping us pose naturally as it was our first formal photo shoot and were very nervous and inexperienced at the time. She was very open to adding in any props/shots that we wanted but also was able to take the lead when we needed. The delivery of photos was easy and her editing style is gorgeous. I would highly recommend her, I still love looking at the photos, they were perfect for wedding decor.

Fueled by equal parts caffeine and passion, I spend my days capturing images that make you stop, smile and wish that time would slow down. Your story, your love, is beautiful and I can't wait to capture it in photographs you will treasure for years to come. I believe in real moments and heartfelt conversations on the back patio. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.

We wish we could give Cate 10 stars - she is seriously a ROCKSTAR talent! She seamlessly captured everyone's personality, and let us just live in our special day. We loved watching her get excited about awesome shots, and truly enjoying what she does. In addition to being an incredible professional, she's also a BLAST to have around, has all the positive energy, is an organizational master, and was a big source of calm in the midst of a crazy day. Our photos were extremely important to us, as the majority of our guests traveled from our of town and we had tons of special moments and memories we wanted to capture. We are absolutely thrilled with how they turned out - cannot recommend her enough!

We absolutely loved working with Erin! We was responsive and on top of things from the beginning. She had such a great attitude and energy, which really eased a lot of our uncomfortable-ness of being in front of a camera. For our engagement photos, she spent a lot of time scouting out the best locations at our venue to ensure we got some really beautiful photos. Which of course we did! For the wedding, she made sure to get every single specific photo I told her was important to me. Even ones I had forgotten about in the moment. I was truly grateful for how patient she was the day of and how organized she was. We’ve only gotten our sneak peek photos but so far but they are incredible! She is so talented and has such a beautiful eye for photography! Book Erin!

Hi! My name is Brooke, and I am a Wedding, Maternity, and Boudoir photographer based in San diego, CA.

My goal is to take a split second and breathe life into it, in an artistic and unexpected way. Capturing love, and unique beauty is something that brings me SO much joy. Something about bringing out a persons inner beauty, and letting it shine through an image makes me literally the happiest person on this earth.

I love savoring moments deeply. As I look back on my life, the moments that stick out are not necessarily those that involve some exotic adventure or some grandiose experience. While I love adventure and appreciate exciting experiences as much as the next guy, the moments that I remember are those that I take the time to notice, those that I intentionally experience with the fullness of all of my senses, those that I mark as holy or sacred, those that I consecrate. It’s this that drives my photographic and creative ventures. I would be so honored to talk with you further about the possibility of capturing your wedding day.
