  • Serves Modesto, CA

My wedding photography is ideal for couples seeking a candid and documentary-style approach. If you'd rather enjoy your day with loved ones than spend it posing for photos, I'm here to capture authentic moments as they naturally occur. From the laughter and embraces to the spontaneous celebrations, I aim to document the genuine essence of your wedding day. With my documentary-style photography, you can be fully present, knowing that your treasured memories will be preserved just as they happened.

Awarded Best of Zola
My partner and I loved our experience with Isela. When looking for a photographer, my partner was especially keen on the idea of someone who enjoyed taking more candid photos, so we were drawn to Isela’s documentary style of photography. As newbies to the process of hiring a professional photographer, she was patient, communicative, and helpful with any questions we had (e.g., hours, access to gallery). There were also quite a lot of changes that happened with planning our Hmong wedding, and I am grateful that Isela was flexible and understanding and took the time to ask questions to learn more about a Hmong wedding at home. On the day of the wedding, it was really chilly but Isela was out there getting shots of us and our family. My parents house was packed with our relatives and friends and Isela was respectfully and skillfully interacting with everyone. We love our gallery of pictures. Some of my favorite shots were candid moments throughout the day of the cooking, laughs, and love happening. We will definitely recommend Isela to family and friends. Bonus: As an Asian American couple, my partner and I are huge proponents of hiring people of color for events. We found Isela through theknot.com under Hispanic or Latinx-owned and could not be happier with our decision to hire her as our wedding photographer.

HI, I’M HILLARIE HUGHES . I am a lifestyle/wedding photographer based out of Merced, CA. I’m 30 years old, a wife and a mother to four beautiful kids. It's safe to say that I'm a VERY busy mama! You can catch me with my kindle when I’m not editing, and being as active as I can be in my children's lives. Never in a million years did I think that people would love my photos as much as they do, but I am so grateful and so blessed! I am learning more and more every session that I have, and have been incredibly lucky to have such awesome clients (turned into forever friends!) that have been with me during this entire journey.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Hillarie was the best decision I could have made for my wedding. I had a wedding at a venue she had never been to, and was a little nervous about her not being familiar with the grounds. My nerves were silly because she absolutely killed it. She over delivers and is the sweetest calm in the chaos. I wish I could relive my wedding day over and over, including having her there. I am so happy I went with her.

Jess was beyond amazing and made our day so special. It was incredible how beautiful our pictures turned out and she captured everything I could have ever imagined and beyond. It was actually quite impressive looking through the wedding album after we received it because Jess seemed like she was everywhere all of the time. She captured every moment sometimes with different angles and I am so grateful to be able to relive our wedding day while looking through the photos. I thought I would regret not having a videographer but Jess truly captured everything from start to finish and that the day just comes back to life when I look through all of the photos. As she captured our wedding day she was soooo very patient with my husband and I, our family, and all our friends. Everyone spoke so highly of her after our wedding and really appreciated having a relaxed, caring, funny, kind, and professional photographer. She also helped me while getting ready and truly made it so I could fully enjoy my wedding. I also asked her to shoot my graduation photos and lets just say I don't think I will ever inquire for a different photographer. I am looking forward to continuing to have her capture precious moments in my life for as long as she continues photography. Thank you for being more than I could have ever hoped for and capturing some of the most memorable days in my life and making them so extremely special. You are the best Jess!!! 3

If it's your first time here, welcome! My name is Shannon Montgomery, and I am a California and travel photographer that specializes in traditional+timeless weddings and elopements. I am always up for a good hike, enjoy rainy overcast days, and will always stop to pet any dogs in reach! Working in the garden, getting to visit any possible farm animal (but especially cows), and walking barefoot make me happiest. I love seeing the beauty in things that have endured the test of time, seen across the challenges and storms, and still stand in their own kind of beauty today.

We hired Shannon for our wedding this year and it was one of the best decisions we made! She not only kept everything on time but she became a friend on that day as well. She captured every picture we wanted on our photo listed and delivered the most beautiful pictures from our day. She is professional, hardworking and the nicest photographer we have met.

It was nice to be able to rant to someone about all that we were dealing with due to covid but she remained so positive! The wedding day came and she got right to work! She is definitely assertive but I think thats something that is needed!! She cracked jokes the whole time which we loved. Having to wrangle family/ wedding party to make sure you get all the shots and stay on time is not easy! I got my gallery yesterday and was floored. It was everything I hoped for and so much more... not one bad photo! I'd give her 10 stars if I could.

I'm Jess, a wedding and portrait photographer based in Sacramento, CA. I know the wedding planning process can be quite overwhelming, and that's why I'm here to help you at every step leading up to your special day. I take pride in making a comfortable environment while I take photos, so people can feel like their most confident, beautiful selves. I get the most satisfaction when couples see their photos for the first time and are amazed at how stunning they look. I love showcasing what I see through my lens and giving people the confidence they didn’t know they had!

I have had the opportunity to work with Jess for a few events now, and each time it has been an absolute pleasure! Jess is so personable, easy to work/ communicate with, professional and extremely talented! Being a floral designer, so much time, energy, labor and love is put into the floral designs. Viewing the galleries from Jess for these events have made me so so happy! Jess has such a good eye, and the amount of detail she captures is truly amazing. It's hard to choose just a few photos since they literally are all so perfect! If you're in need of a photographer for your event, Jess is your girl!

Hey there! I’m a wedding and lifestyle photographer serving the East Bay, San Francisco, Napa, Sonoma + Worldwide! I travel everywhere. I love capturing magical outdoor weddings—whether it’s a dreamy garden, a historic home, a charming winery, or a private estate hidden in the woods (I'm basically the Indiana Jones of weddings). My couples often say how comfortable I make them feel, how I capture the real moments without being intrusive, and how much fun they have during our shoots. I’m obsessed with the details and love when couples pour their hearts into making their wedding day unforgettable.

I got married in Napa Valley and didn't know who to hire for my professional pictures. The venue recommended a few names and after contacting Vanessa I knew that is who I wanted to work with. She was very caring and patient. She was on time and didn't disrupt the moment when I was getting ready, instead she made it special. She gave us poses to do and talked to the venue to make sure we could go to a little bridge I wanted to take pictures at. I highly recommend her!!

  • Serves Modesto, 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.

Angela Sue Photography provides Bay Area brides and grooms with a romantic and timeless wedding photography experience that celebrates the legacy of their love story. We believe in love. Unconditional and relentless love.

Awarded Best of Zola
Angela Sue Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. They were precise and thoughtful in their instructions and communication, which put us at ease throughout the day. Their work is very intentional and detail-oriented - they showed up promptly and made us feel like our day was their top priority. For example, Michael and Angela had memorized the names of our family members in advance, which made the group photos seamless and efficient. We couldn't have asked for better photographers to capture our special day. The photos are airy, bright, and perfectly capture all the details and couple shots. Angela and Michael made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and blended in seamlessly with our wedding celebration. There is no one better we could have had for our wedding photography.

Loved every second working with Marsha. She was there for me anytime I had a question, helped me create a timeline for my wedding, and had a very calming presence that helped me greatly. We got through photos in rapid succession and had plenty of time to mingle with our guests after (we did do a first look with pictures pre-ceremony so that helped a lot). This lady definitely knows what she is doing. She was absolutely priceless to have!
