Long Beach, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,600

Photography is my creative dream come true and it is so incredibly special to be able to capture memories that other people will love and cherish for many, many years. Around high school, I found out for myself how important these memories were. Not just the ones I was creating currently but the ones that I couldn’t get back. I would look back on these photos and think, "I remember how happy I was that day." "Aww, my little brother was so tiny then!" Or even, "What was I thinking when I wore that outfit??" These little snippets of time carried such a significance for me that I wanted other people to feel that way about their memories, too.

Amanda is AMAZING! She is so sweet and fun. My husband and I are no models, but she helped our quirky selves relax, pose, and take beautiful photos. From the engagement session at the beach with our surfboards to our pandemic mini-money. She really knows what she is doing and we are so thankful she has been with us to document our most special day. :}

Hello Friends! I'm a wedding and portrait photographer based out of Long Beach, CA. Weddings are my absolute favorite type of photography and I love hearing about my couples love stories. My commitment to you is to provide with the best images of your life and a feeling that we are going to be friends for awhile. I will walk you through the whole process from start to finish and I'll make sure you take the time to enjoy your special day.

From beginning to end, James has been a great communicator. He has a calming energy that is very comfortable to work with when planning a big wedding like what we did. The first time we spoke on the phone we knew James was the guy for us. He is extremely thorough and one hundred percent committed to capturing the vision you see for your wedding. On the day of, his team showed up early and worked tirelessly. They shifted seamlessly, quickly adapting to any issues that arose, and when cold weather threatened our intimate sunset photoshoot, James coached us through blistering windchill with speed and precision.

Randall de Leon Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Long Beach, CA

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’ve been lucky to know and work with Randall for a few years. When we finally decided to make things “official” we knew we wanted someone that does great work, that we trust, and would make us feel comfortable. We wanted our day to feel like a relaxed family event and Randall helped with that and so much more. He suggested possible locations that would meet our dream event and times to maximize the best lighting for the area. Once we settled on the location and date, he maintained excellent communication in preparation to the event to properly flesh out the day’s timetable, day of logistics, and post. On the day of our wedding he expertly directed us and our families, using the natural lighting to capture the perfect shots. We would have been lost without him, especially since no one knew how to assist with bustling my dress. During our dinner reception he seamlessly directed restaurant staff to assist in transitioning between meals/dessert/toast for more amazing shots. After the wedding he kept us updated on next steps for our pictures. Randall is truly a gem and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone special to capture their day.

Awarded Best of Zola
They are just LIFESAVERS! For some reason, don’t ask me why, we decided to look for Photographers about 1 month before our wedding day. And by true luck, they were still available. They were recommended by my mother. She was at my cousin’s wedding, and she was amazed at how well the photographer operated on the wedding day. I contacted them, and the whole process of booking wasn’t difficult at all. They had answers to all of my questions and concerns I had at that moment, everything was really easy and smooth. They showed me that it would be beneficial for us to consider booking a videographer as well. Luckily we had a budget and, oh my god, it would be horrible if I didn’t get video as well. On the actual day, their level of customer service was nothing but excellent! Since it’s our first wedding :), we had no clue how the shooting process worked, I was a little bit concerned about that, but the way they operated and instructed us was so smooth and seamless, it was as good as it could be done! The result was amazing! Both photos and videos were shot and edited very professionally. In the photos, we looked like we are models from the cover of a magazine. The video wasn’t some ordinary romantic wedding video, it was a movie, with great storytelling and a fantastic choice of music! My husband and I recommend them!

My name is Zyaire Porter and I am the photographer of Porterhouse LA Weddings. Born & raised in Los Angeles, I have been capturing weddings professionally since 2013. I answer every email myself (no bots or assistants).

Awarded Best of Zola
Porterhouse LA did a fantastic job photographing our wedding. Zyaire was artistic, punctual, and precise. We received our photos very quickly after the wedding, and are absolutely in love with them. We’ll treasure these for the rest of our lives, and have had so much joy from sharing them with others. The comments we’ve received have all been about how beautiful the wedding looked, how good everyone looked, and how gorgeous the photos were overall, which is exactly what we were hoping for. Zyaire met with us over Zoom twice before the actual wedding, and took every one of our concerns and questions seriously. He had a good answer to everything, and it convinced us that we were dealing with a consummate professional. We also asked him to shoot our welcome party for guests, and he was able to oblige with that, as well. We first met him in person for the welcome party, and he was already there when we arrived, getting background shots of the venue. This was something we hadn’t even considered, but it was really valuable - having shots of the venue, and the venue for our wedding, helped put the other photos in context for people who weren’t able to attend, and gave us mementos of the locations themselves.

Shelby Ayn Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Long Beach, CA

Your experience with me starts long before you step in front of my lens. I take the time and energy to get to know you & your story, so that I can capture the parts of your relationship that are authentically YOU. So that you can look back on the photos from this season of life, and feel like you're right back in that moment, feeling those same feels. To me, a perfectly posed & still photograph doesn't capture a feeling the way that a candid one can. I direct my couples to create images that are full of movement and those intimate in-between moments.

Shelby is so easy to work with and cares so much about her craft. It shows in her work, the time and effort she puts into her business, and her communication with her clients. I was overwhelmed and a bit nervous about choosing a photographer because there’s so many out there - plus, you want someone to fit your needs for your most special life memories, capture your vision, etc etc. Shelby will do that. She AMAZED me. If you want a photographer who you can be sure will check all the boxes, you’ll have made the right choice with her. She made us feel like naturals in front of the camera, picked the most amazing shooting location, and really knows what she’s doing. Also her turnaround time on photos was amazing. I would book her again and again and refer her to people whenever I can!!!

Every aspect of the entire experience, from planning and booking all the way through the wedding and receiving our photo album -- everything was above and beyond our expectations. Athena is super professional but also extremely friendly and personable. She made us feel comfortable in front of the lens, and gave us all the right cues to get amazing photos. She walked us through what to expect from start to finish, helped us plan ahead to get exactly the photos we wanted, and coordinated with us on the day of the wedding to make sure everything went smoothly. We honestly could not have asked for more, and we are forever grateful to Athena for everything she did for us.
