I work with Ari often (I'm a floral designer) and she's one of the few photographers that I will basically drop everything to work on a shoot, project or a wedding for. She has such a professional eye – great at framing her couples, a timeless style, and the moments look candid and natural yet elegant and polished at the same time. And she's down-to-earth and easy to work with! A lot of the photos highlighting my floral work come from Ari and they are the ones I use over and over. I love her work that much!! You will be in good hands if Ari is your photographer.

Hi, I'm NadiKa, and I've been offering wedding photography services in Sacramento, California since 2016. What started as a simple hobby—capturing special moments with my family and kids—soon blossomed into a deep passion. Now, I pour my heart, soul, and every bit of my free time into ensuring that each of my couples has the best possible experience. I believe every wedding tells a unique story, and I’m honored to be a part of preserving those memories through my lens.

I hired Nadiya and her team to photograph our wedding and capture all of the beautiful, unforgettable moments of our special day. She captured everything perfectly, and used the natural lighting and cloud cover to create the most romantic, intimate photos I’ve ever seen! She and her team were wonderful to work with during our wedding planning, and truly produced the most beautiful photos! I am also an experienced, professional wedding planner, and I am so proud to have Nadika Photography at the TOP of my preferred photographers list, and I refer ALL of my couples to Nadiya first, and they are always so grateful!

Nicky Byrnes Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Madison, CA

I’ve had a camera in my hand since I can remember. On family vacations each of us had a camera and would come back with several rolls of film. It was great to see different perspectives of the same place. My photos became more refined throughout my childhood as I graduated to my stepdad’s Minolta film SLR. In college I dedicated myself to photography professionally with a degree in photojournalism, then found my calling with a wedding studio at 19.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nikki from Nemus photography is a fantastic Tahoe-local and wonderfully talented artist. We have had the joy of doing a number of area events together over the years and Nikki truly delivers with amazing shots, beautifully edited images and we would highly recommend her to couples looking for an artistic, creative and professional photographer for their engagement shoot, wedding celebration, etc. Having done hundreds of Tahoe area wedding myself I will say that Nikki pours her heart and soul into her work and it shows. If you want a massively-talented photographer who knows the area, can tell your love story through beautiful images and is professional and timely than look no further.

For the romantic explorers who are planning their intimate wedding in California, I am a California-raised, golden-coast obsessed, documentary-style wedding photographer who can’t get enough of the beautiful outdoor venues this state has to offer. From ocean low to mountain high, my bags are packed and I’m on my way to capture your love story in the most beautiful place in the world.

Kait was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding! From our very first email exchange, Kait made me feel so special and supported! Her communication, in general, is prompt, upbeat and incredibly helpful as you plan. Her enthusiasm and excitement for our special day was infectious and she made the planning process so much more joyful. Kait made me feel like she was a close friend who I could lean on without ever having met her! On the wedding day itself, her calm and flexible approach helped us feel at ease, and the resulting photos are simply beautiful, with great angles and lighting that made me feel beautiful and a camera shy groom shine. She got us sneak peaks that we LOVED and poured over with in less than 12 hours! We couldn't be happier with the value and quality of Kait's work, and we highly recommend her to any couple looking for a talented, caring photographer who is truly dedicated to making their wedding day unforgettable.

Azaria Chavira Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Madison, CA

Hi! I’m Azaria. I am a Northern California-based Travel Wedding and Elopement photographer. How did I get here? I grew up in small-town Nebraska with a love for adventure and photography. I got to explore those passions when I got married, my husband joined the military, and we got stationed overseas. I used that opportunity to travel and see many countries. When we returned stateside, I pursued my passion for photography by getting my degree at Brooks Institute of Photography.

Awarded Best of Zola
Azaria not only delivers a beautiful product, but she is a beautiful person inside and out. Her talent behind the lens is undeniable. My husband and I booked her for a wedding vow renewal in the California Redwood forests. Originally we went with her because she knew the area and could help navigate us during the day (plus her instagram was proof of her skills!), we ended up getting so much more. She recruited her husband David to stand in as our "officiant" (even though we're already married), and the care and attention to detail he took made the ceremony so much more sacred. It was his energy that truly led the vows. Azaria spent all day with us and creatively had us posing and positioned behind the most spectacular scenery. She thought of all the things I didn't: maps, cell service, comfy shoes, jackets, and more. She truly gives her whole energy to your event. We had several zoom meetings leading up to our travels she makes herself available for all ideas or questions. I was surprised when she told me how many clients she works with annually because my husband and I felt like we were the only ones- her attention to detail and talent are outstanding. I'm grateful to have had her shape and capture our day.

Awarded Best of Zola
I could not recommend Mindy more! She was absolutely fantastic to work with and was extremely thoughtful and helpful with the entire experience. I used Mindy to capture two events, a proposal and and a surprise engagement party. For the proposal, Mindy spend a lot of time with me thinking through the right proposal spot at the location I was looking at to make sure that it worked for the photos, she even got there early to make sure that it worked. She was so well hidden to capture the proposal that for a moment I wasn't sure she was there, but she was and captured it and spent time with us after to take photos. We just got the sneak peak of the photos and they look fantastic. For the surprise party Mindy got there early and started to capture moments even before my fiancee and I arrived, she was really flexible on what worked best for the event so we can't wait to see the final photos!

After shooting our engagement photos with her and seeing the gallery of them, I was so thankful we chose her to do our wedding!! She captured our day perfectly and helped everyone remain calm throughout the day with her demeanor. When you book Denise you will walk into it with a photographer and away from it with a new friend!

Connor & Emma were an absolute dream to have capture our special day. They gave us the gift of getting to be completely present throughout our wedding. Instead of being torn between wanting to enjoy every second while also capturing every moment on our phones/cameras, we got to just live in the moment and know they would take care of giving us lasting memories in the form of photos/videos (which they did an exceptional job at btw!!!) Could not recommend them enough and we will definitely be reaching out to them whenever we need an event captured again. Thank you again Connor & Emma! On behalf of all of our family and friends, you guys are amazing and we were so lucky to have you there on the best day of our lives! -Brianna, Bud, and Bart Jr

Hello there, I'm Mariea (sounds like Maria). I'm thrilled that you want to know more about me! I would love to meet you both, but in the mean time: Kurt and I (husband and wife team along with two other associate photographers) have been photographing weddings for well over ten years now and ABSOLUTELY love our job and clients. Our shooting style is quietly unobtrusive but we also know how to wrangle a rowdy bunch :)

Mariea and Kurt are the most amazing photographers ever! I have a huge middle eastern family who is so hard to wrangle for pictures and Mariea was so organized and got all the pictures I wanted with my family. She was able to get them all to focus and be where they needed to be while still being so kind and patient! My wedding was in September and it is now December and my family is still talking about how amazing she was! Mariea is now the baseline for amazing photographers in our family and when we go to other weddings we compare the photographers to her and let me tell you so far they have all fallen sooooo short!

Captured Cupid is based out of Sacramento, California servicing clients from around the world. Primarily started as a wedding cinematography studio that specializes in storytelling style filmmaking. We love the challenge of producing such high-quality work for each individual because the emotional response is extremely rewarding for both our clients and our team. We would love to make introductions and chat with you about your wedding or special event.

Kevin was the best investment we made for our wedding. He went above and beyond for us. He stayed late at our wedding and gave us expert tips and tricks during our wedding to create a smoother event. The biggest problem I experienced during my wedding (and I assume most other do as well) was stress. Everything was flying at me and my then fiancé and the last person I expected to help comfort me and my wife and put our minds at ease was our videographer Kevin. He handled things with such ease and calmness. It honestly felt like he was the captain that kept out ship afloat. He’s more than a videographer. He helped organize and coordinate family/games/events during our wedding and truly did more than we could have ever asked for. Not to mention he even took incredible photos for us and had a entire edited album created for us the very next day. He displays the incredible professionalism and true care for his clients. I recommend his work to everyone and anyone. He is the best investment you could make for your most important day. My wife and I can’t thank him enough for what he did for us.

I am really interested in other people. I like to find out about you. I believe we all have value, and everybody deserves to be happy. Sour Pusses are quite the bummer, and seriousness is overrated. I really believe there should be very little reason for people to not get along. EVERYONE is welcome. I LOVE nostalgia, and having my work appreciated enough to be on your walls is the best feeling. I roast my own coffee, I am a friek for Legos, old black and white movies, the ocean, the forest, the jungle, and chatting with people.

Daniel Cewinski Photography was an outstanding choice for our wedding photographer. From the beginning, Daniel's communication style was assertive, positive, and thorough, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. His work is truly exceptional - passionate, professional, and sophisticated. On our wedding day, Daniel paid particular attention to our needs, being extremely accommodating with our family and sunset photographs. It was significantly beneficial to meet Daniel during our engagement photoshoot, as it helped us feel secure and motivated for the upcoming wedding. Daniel made the entire experience a joy, and we are thrilled with the beautiful, high-quality photos that captured our special day perfectly. We highly recommend Daniel Cewinski Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

Hi! My names Marissa, and I have one of the coolest jobs around - hanging out with people on their wedding day! I love iced coffee and Jamie Fraser and spend my spare time reading or hanging out with my horse!

We had the best experience working with Marissa for our wedding! For one, she has an amazing personality - she is fun and lighthearted, so easygoing, AND also very responsible and on top of things (which I so appreciate)! For two, we had the unfortunate timing with COVID of having to postpone our wedding and our engagement shoot, and she made it super easy. She helped me many times in the planning process, from walking through the timeline, to picking out my bridesmaid dress color. Day of, she contributed so well to the fun vibe of the day, kept us on time and therefore not stressing out, and captured some AMAZING photos of us! She also captured so many awesome candids during our day, that looking back you can really see and remember how people felt, what the vibe of the day was, and the funny things that happened too (like when my friend spilled white wine on my dress and Marissa came to the rescue with napkins;)) Thank you so much Marissa!
