Heather Morgan Photography was absolutely fantastic to work with for our wedding day! From the very first interaction, Heather's communication was clear, detailed, and thoughtful. She took the time to understand our vision and made helpful suggestions to ensure we captured all the special moments. Heather's work is truly fantastic - her photos are fun and incredibly candid, perfectly reflecting the joy of our celebration. She even helped me with a boudoir photoshoot as a wedding gift for my husband! I wish I could give 6 stars, as I cannot recommend Heather's services enough!

Cassia Karin Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Cayucos, CA

Started to study beauty since 1987... Discovered photography in 1999. Studied and practiced wedding photography since 2007. Studied people and relationships since 2008 (college degree in counseling). Started teaching others how to see light, beauty, color, and magical moments since 2017. "The lover is the student of the beloved"

Modern, Romantic and Fun – isn’t that what we want in all wedding photographers. We interviewed several wedding photographers to ensure we picked the right photographer for how we wanted to capture our love on such a special day. Within a couple minutes of talking with Cassia my fiancé and I both looked at each other with a look that was yup this is the one. Cassia spent time getting to know us and we were so happy to see her giving her time at a charity event we attended later in the year after we had booked her. This reconfirmed that she was the right pick. Leading up to the wedding Cassia was great with communication and preparing us for what to expect. On the day of the wedding it had been raining but you wouldn’t know it Cassia and her team were calm and ready to make our day happen regardless of weather. Cassia assured me we would still get the shots we had discussed and that we would creatively figure things out. We have about 20 pictures that she sent to hold us over until the rest are finished and oh my gosh they are so lovely. We have been getting tons of compliments on how she captured our love. Thank you Cassia for getting to know us so that you could capture the most intimate and personal moments as we start our married life together. I can’t wait to see the rest of the photos – we are sooo excited! We highly recommend Cassia and her team of photography professionals!

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.

Savannah Grace Photography was the perfect wedding photographer for our special day. Her communication style was effective, respectful, and kind. She was incredibly organized, which allowed us to get through all of our wedding party, family, and solo photos quickly during cocktail hour. Savannah made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process and beautifully captured all the emotion and happiness of our wedding. The final photos were absolutely stunning - warm, professional, and exactly the vibe we were going for. Savannah listened to our preferences and helped us through posing and set up of photos so we didn’t feel awkward at all. We are thrilled with the results and couldn't have asked for a better photographer to document our wedding day.

I value your time with your loved ones, and I photograph from that framework. One of my core values is honoring family and friends, and I reflect that as part of my brand and company. We prepare beforehand, so we can move through formal photos with ease, and get you to your dance party sooner! Meaning, photos won't drag on for hours... we've all been to one of those weddings, right? That won't be yours. When you become my client, you become my people. What does that mean for you? I'm there for you, and I have your back. I want to give you gorgeous photos that show the joy of your day, without having to miss all the fun stuff.

Tayler is literally the best! Picking the right photographer was such a big decision for our wedding and we are so thankful we picked Tayler, not only did our engagement pictures come out amazing (we only took them like 8 weeks before the big day to practice) but our wedding pictures were soo awesome. We both have strong, opinionated families and she was able to manage them effectively. Everyone complimented her personality and our pictures aquickly and they were sooo beautiful we couldn’t even pick our favorites. If you need a photographer look no further pick Taylor she won’t disappoint, she is so fun to work with and you get the best shots.

Capturing moments for the people I love, in the places they love, wherever that may be. There’s nothing more invigorating than giving people the opportunity to see themselves in a way that they never have before. Creating something meaningful for others is my passion. First, it’s important we get to know each other to make sure we’re a good fit cause trust me, it matters. I'll go first.

Fives across the board! Absolutely fell in love with Gage. Everything from his unique ability to capture a moment to his great personality. He made us feel like the only couple in the world. Gage made everything come to life. The big day seemed less stressful with him and his team there catching all the moments that mattered. Deciding whom to trust with the most important day of your life is stressful enough but make it easy on yourself and go with Gage! He’s out of this world and now apart of the family!

I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.

Our experience with Xenia and Mark (videographer) was truly amazing. Xenia is truly a dedicated professional and her camera work is truly phenomenal. We booked Xenia for both our engagement and wedding photos and she completely exceeded my expectations! We originally booked Xenia and Mark for our wedding in May but unfortunately our wedding venue closed last minute and we were left to scramble in finding a new venue and once we did Xenia was so accommodating and made the new wedding date work. Xenia and Mark are super easy to work with; truly genuine individuals! I scoured through hundreds of photographers before I came across Xenia and honestly, none of them compared to her work and eye for photography. Stop your search and book her; I promise you won't regret it. Thank you, Xenia and Mark!

Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — vibrant, authentic, and joyful.

We worked with Marijo for our wedding this past May and she was wonderful! Our pre-wedding meeting went well, she asked a lot of questions about us as a couple and about what we wanted from our wedding photos, which we really liked because it gave us an idea about what our wedding day photography would be like, but also it showed that she is detail oriented. On the day of, she made my family as well as us really comfortable. Posing for photos can be very awkward, but she kept the mood light and made us laugh a lot which made for some really great, natural pictures. We took our couple photos at Pasadena City Hall on what must have been prom day for several high schools because the place was packed, but she managed to get us some really great, intimate shots away from other people taking photos. We really love how our pictures came out and are so excited to order some prints for ourselves and family. We highly recommend AM Badillo, and loved working with Marijo!

MA & CA Your wedding isn’t just a sequence of events—it’s a mix of energy, quiet pauses, and the moments in between that hold the most meaning. You want a photographer who sees the unscripted, the unfiltered, and the unexpected—the things that make your day yours. I work with couples who value nostalgia, emotion, and a little edge in their wedding story. The ones who want their photos to feel like them—unposed, unforced, and unrepeatable. Whether it’s the weight of a glance, the rush of the dance floor, or the way your hands find each other in the middle of it all, every image is a keepsake of your story—without trends, AI edits, or formulas

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough about Justina—she helped our wedding day run seamlessly! From the start, she was incredibly helpful and communicative, working closely with us to construct the perfect wedding day timeline. She even provided a detailed wedding guidebook and questionnaire, which helped us envision the exact vibe we wanted. On the big day, when we inevitably fell behind schedule, Justina handled it with such grace and adapted quickly. She adjusted effortlessly, stayed flexible, and kept everything moving. Even with less time for photos, she still managed to capture all the shots we had requested. Justina’s collaboration with her brother Anthony, who did our videography, was another highlight. Instead of coordinating between two separate vendors, we were able to meet with both of them together, ensuring that our wedding day vibe was beautifully reflected in both the photos and video. They both were extremely professional and helpful, in addition to providing creative ideas that helped bring our vision to life. What truly sets Justina apart is her talent and eye for candid shots that look and feel so natural. You can tell she cares deeply about the quality of her work. She got us a preview album within a week of the wedding, and my husband and I were so moved by the photos. We still cannot stop looking through them! If you want someone who will make your wedding photo dreams come true and help you feel comfortable and taken care of on our wedding day, look no further than Justina. We couldn’t be happier with our choice!

We worked with Kathryn for our October 2024 Hindu/Jewish blended wedding and were so happy with our decision!! We spoke with MANY photographers during the planning process trying to decide who fit our style and personality leading up to our wedding. Neither of us feel super comfortable in front of the camera so it was important to us that we found someone who truly fit us and what we were looking for. Kathryn's warmth, adventurous spirit, and genuine curiosity about us as a couple really stood out, and we immediately knew she was who we wanted to work with. We had a large wedding with many Hindu/Jewish traditions making the day busy & hectic, but Kathryn's professionalism and calm attitude made us feel at ease. We really appreciated how on top of it she was, sticking to our timeline and facilitating our rather large (and rowdy!) group, all while making the staged photos seamless and the candids from the reception/baraat so special and a true representation our special day. The colors are just magnificent, and we had many guests compliment her work, fun nature, and professionalism throughout the night. Thank you Kathryn for making our day so wonderful!!

From our very first call, the team at Hearts in Focus was incredibly responsive and helpful, walking us through all the options to find the perfect coverage for our big day. On the wedding day, the photographers were professional, discreet, and captured so many beautiful, natural moments that we'll cherish forever. The final photos exceeded our expectations - they're vibrant, artistic, and truly showcase the joy and love of our wedding. We're thrilled with the work of Hearts in Focus and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

Tooney White Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Cayucos, CA

I was born and raised in the Philippines but now call Northern California my home. I've been a photographer for over a decade and that journey has made me come to realize that nothing makes me happier than making those behind my lens feel amazing about themselves. My goal is to be so much more than your photographer. I'd love for you to consider me your friend especially because we'll be spending a lot of time together on your wedding day. Trust me to help fix any strands of hair that get in your face, straighten out your outfits, help you pose, and encourage you to enjoy this momentous day.

Run, don’t walk! My husband and I had the most amazing experience working with Tooney. She is incredibly talented, and kind, her warmth radiates into her photography. My husband and I decided to elope with very short notice and she was able to accommodate us even when leaving town for a big gig on the weekend. We also don’t have experience posing much and she was so skilled at giving us direction. But most importantly it just felt like fun! My husband (who hates taking pictures) said “We got the best photographer possible, she made this so fun”. We got our sneak peeks in just 2 days and we are so ecstatic about the gallery we got. We plan to do a bigger celebration with extended family and friends and will absolutely reach out to Tooney again. You’re in great hands with her!

Eli Suzuki-Gill Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Cayucos, CA

Your wedding day is filled with once-in-a-lifetime moments, and I’m here to capture them in a way that feels natural, effortless, and truly you. With a calm presence and an eye for storytelling, I focus on the real, unscripted moments—the quiet hand squeezes, the deep belly laughs, the happy tears—so you can relive them for years to come. My approach is simple: Be a steady, supportive presence, document your day with care, and make sure you feel comfortable in front of the camera. Whether you're camera-shy or love being in the spotlight, I'll guide when needed and step back when the magic happens naturally.

As a fellow professional in the wedding photo industry, Eli is the only person I trusted to take my wedding photos. He is kind, trustworthy, and a true artist that treats every wedding like it's worth photographing. There are too many people in this industry who will treat your wedding like just another job, Eli is NOT one of those people. Booking with Eli is something we will be happy we did for the rest of our lives, the photos are a part of our home, and bring a smile each and every time we look at them.

I am a storyteller and a traveler, capturing fleeting moments that define a lifetime. Though based in the U.S., my work takes me across the world, from one city to the next, chasing light, love, and the emotions that make each story unique. My style is cinematic and timeless. I don’t just take photos—I capture the raw, unfiltered moments that make your wedding feel like a beautifully crafted film. The quiet glances, the bursts of laughter, the tears of joy—each frame is a memory, preserved forever. — Caz Isaiah

Awarded Best of Zola
After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date. From the very first contact, he was incredibly responsive (super important to us), friendly and professional. His work looked great so we were excited - then we found out he was featured in Vogue! We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful. Thank you Caz for giving us such beautiful memories so we can relive the best day of our lives.
