Hi, I'm Samuel Hui, a wedding photographer driven by a passion for creating unforgettable memories through my lens. What sets my work apart is my commitment to blending experimental creativity with a deep respect for the natural flow of each wedding day. I believe in capturing genuine moments that reflect the authentic emotions and unique personalities of my couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We got some really great photos from Samuel! We really love his true-to-reality editing and that he tries to capture every detail. Be sure to tell him ahead of time how you want your day to go. He leans hard toward the Instagram-y, fabricated style and it was difficult to redirect to a more candid style in the moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
Looking for a photographer is difficult and so expensive. We talked to many and even though everyone is professional we never felt cared for till we spoke to Renee. Her and Ricky her husband/videographer were both so great and thoughtful. They checked out our venue to get an overlay. We met up on another day for a engagement session which turned out amazing! It was really fun and enjoyable. They were both so flexible and patient. In my opinion they turned out to be more than just our photographers. On our wedding things got hectic due to rain and plans changing but they both adjusted accordingly. All of our photos look amazing and they got great candid shots si we that's what we wanted. I have no problem recommending them to anyone. We have photographers now for life for all of our events and I would even say friends :)

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,800

I’m Summer and I’m a wedding and portrait photographer. I love to document moments, big ones and the tiny ones that sometimes go unnoticed. Things I enjoy, Funny memes, kind people and enjoy a good true crime podcast. I'm a 9 on the enneagram, if your into that. I believe in true love and the power of a great hug.

During COVD we've had to change our plans so many times we were just about to give up and just get married at the county clerk. Summer was so patient at every twist and turn and encouraged us to hold a Minimony. With her help, and suggestions of wonderful vendors, we got married. A small intimate wedding, following all the current restrictions of coarse, and it was MAGICAL. We had the best day and it actually probably better then we originally planned. Thank you Summer you are a godsend and our photos are PERFECTION!

Hey there, I’m Kelsey! I’m a Southern California-based wedding and elopement photographer with a love for capturing charm locally and around the world. I'm inspired by those intimate, fleeting moments—like your hands intertwined or that infectious, spontaneous laugh—that tell your unique story. My goal is to turn these memories into artful, timeless photographs. Whether you’re celebrating love, family, or life’s special moments, I’m here to document your genuine connection and joy. Let’s create stunning images that become cherished treasures for years to come!

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our big day! Everything was of course super stressful for our wedding, but Kelsey made this part of our planning seamless and stress-free. We told her what style we were going for and she totally nailed it. She made sure to pay attention to the details we wanted captured (and a couple insecurities we mentioned) She was super easy to work with, laid out a detailed plan for the day, and went with the flow when plans changed. Our photos turned out beyond perfect and we literally want to put them everywhere in our house. Highly recommend Kelsey!

Hey there! I'm Madison- a seasoned elopement and micro wedding photographer based in sunny Southern California. Since 2017, I've been on a mission to capture life's most precious moments through my lens. My photography style? Think sweet, golden, and bright – a reflection of the radiant energy of California living.

Awarded Best of Zola
From our very first interaction with Sweet M Photography, we were impressed by her friendly, communicative, and detailed approach. I loved the different elopement packages she offered which made it really easy to pick the best fit for our day. Madison is incredibly knowledgeable, and her work is truly impressive. As a couple who's not used to being in front of the camera, she did an amazing job coaching us through different shots and helping us feel relaxed and natural. Honestly we would have been happy with 1 or 2 great photos, but with Madison they were all great. She also had them turned around to us in a week which was so nice to be able to see them while on our honeymoon. Can't recommend enough!

I would and have recommended Dani and her team to ANYONE looking for a photographer. It’s been almost 2 years since our wedding, 3 since our engagement shoot, and 4 since our family mini’s and I still go back almost every day to look at the beautiful photos she took. My husband and I never feel photogenic but she was able to prove us wrong. I LOVE that she has stuck with us through each season of life. She is such a light and and a breeze to communicate with. When anyone asks me if I would do the wedding all over again, I swear I reply, “I would do it all over only to work with my vendors, again.” We had such a blast. Book her, seriously, just do it.
