Shutter & Sound

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves San Juan Capistrano, CA

Hi! Courtney here (that's me on the left!). Shutter and Sound is the brainchild of renowned wedding videographer Ryan Geldermann. Ryan began his wedding videography career in 2010 in Los Angeles and quickly became recognized as one of the top videographers in the U.S.. After relocating to DC and still receiving countless inquiries from all corners of the country, Ryan decided to recruit and train a few talented friends so he could continue offering the quality wedding videography he’s known for in SoCal and eventually over 10 cities. Shutter and Sound is a very small group of filmmakers dedicated to turning your big day into a work of art.

I recently used Shutter & Sound for my wedding and they were fantastic! The team was super friendly and really skilled at capturing all the important moments without being intrusive. They worked seamlessly with our other vendors which made everything go smoothly. When we got our photos and videos back, we were blown away by the quality and how they managed to capture the feel of our special day perfectly. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch wedding photography and videography!

Welcome. I'm D e r e c k. I've been doing photography and videography since 2017. It wasn't until the pandemic of last year that I decided to take a leap of faith and make it a full-time career. I feel like I've always had a burning passion for photography and editing, I love photography because it captures a moment in time. Whether that moment is your wedding day or an annual family portrait, pictures enable us to relive and remember special occasions again + again. Why I specifically dove into Wedding Photography? Simple!! My love for creativity and seeing passionate couples that aren't afraid to show their personalities

Dereck was very great at communicating, he unfortunately had a grand injury a fee days before my wedding but had a replacement scheduled immediately. It took about a month to receive the whole album but he threw in extras. Always very kind and professional when we spoke. Pricing was amazing for what we received

Steven Nguyen Photography, LLC

  • Fine art style
  • Serves San Juan Capistrano, CA

Hello. I'm Steven. Starting my photography as a hobby in 2014 and becoming a professional in 2017, I have serviced over 80 weddings at diverse locations in my career. Throughout 3 years of my profession, I have chosen the path of fine art photography, which embraces natural colors, rich content, and especially real-time emotions. Contrary to traditional documentary photographers, my goal is to capture every special moment of your wedding day by praising the beauty through lighting and composition.

Awarded Best of Zola
WOW!! Steven Nguyen Photography was one of the BEST INVESTMENT for out wedding. We're so glad we chose Steven and his team, they delivered everything on time and it was not hard to immediately say "YES" after our consultation call. Steven is simply an honest & nice guy, which was what stood out most during our zoom call. Besides his work, my husband and I felt we connected well with him and the trust was evident, since day one. Steven was always responsive and courteous in all of our communication. I reserved my date with Steven about a year in advance to ensure that he locks in that date with us before someone else does (reserving a GOOD wedding photographer in Southern California can be competitive). I love how all of our interaction/communication were more than just a transaction. My husband and I love working with Steven and we felt like we could totally hangout with him and his wife (Connie). We didn't meet Connie until our wedding day and let me tell y'all...she is a whole different vibe (in a good way). I'm so glad she accompanied Steven, she was fun to be around, so down to earth, and awesome to be around. She brings this burst of energy and fun to the wedding team. Steven's artistic work made it look like it was a million dollar wedding (I don't know how, but he did it). We literally couldn't stop smiling and giggling at all the candid moments, he captured it all. With a wedding part size of 250....it's hard to keep track of who showed up that day, but he got everyone. To simply summarize, we are IN LOVE with our photos. Steven's work evokes a sense of elegance, filled with candid emotions that tell a story between two people in the most honest and organic way. Reserve your special day with Steven to ensure that your gallery will be delivered beyond your expectations.

I have always loved story-telling. I loved writing stories as a kid (I even tried to get a book published at age 12) and I love writing my own D&D campaigns now. Through storytelling, I see the paths laid ahead for our heroes, and beautiful adventures that need to be documented. Through storytelling, I started to see the pictures. And from these pictures, I began to photograph. I am crazy passionate about your day. I want to help you capture those moments. I want you to have the most amazing time, and the happiest memories. I want you to have photos so good that you can’t wait to show it off to the people you know, and even those you don’t.

We hired Cassy for our wedding photos and was happily satisfied. She was easy going,fun and captured some our most memorable wedding moments.

My love for photography began as young as 12 but the passion came as soon as I welcomed my first son, Liam. Motherhood is a busy busy life and the camera keeps all the memories fresh. I love, love. Nothing makes me smile bigger than a surprise engagement, or the welcoming of a new baby. I really try to get to know my clients and visualize their lives before I even attempt to capture their story - because that story is what MAKES the shot!

Hi I’m Abby! been told all my life that I have an artistic flair and a gift for creativity, but that’s not the only reason why I started my career in wedding photography. I’m the biggest romantic and feel things deeply — in my photography there’s no detail in your connection that goes unnoticed. The little winks and smirks that silently set your soul on fire, the quirks that stay hidden to everybody else but you, and the parts of them that somehow make you fall in love with them even more… They’re how I tell stories because I know that in time, those are the things you’ll cherish the most.

Abby made our day unforgettable. She had this ease about her that calmed me throughout the day. Anything I wanted to make sure we included she made it happen - even the smallest detail that I had forgotten about she remembered. She drove me up a mountain for first look photos. That right there is dedication. Not only was she supportive as a professional, it was great to have her there as a friend. I would recommend this amazing photographer to anyone. The quality of her work shows through her photos and her work ethic. She had sneak peak photos emailed to me the literal next day. Abby is an absolute wonder, and I will forever be grateful she was there to capture the most perfect moments of the most beautiful day. Thank you, Abby!

I wish I’d spoke up on being self conscious about my butt, and I didn’t so I have some pictures I probably won’t be sharing, but the pictures we have are pretty, she got everything I wanted during our ceremony, I just wish I had gotten some pictures with my bridesmaids and me in my wedding dress. The ball got dropped on that. Other than that I’m happy with my ceremony pictures, and some of the pictures where I’m facing away from the camera I’m not a huge fan of. My husband loves them though, so that’s good. There was some miscommunication on editing and what not, but over all we got some really good photos.

I photograph the stories of couples who love big adventures and little details; couples who know the value of embracing old traditions and the thrill of creating their own; couples who believe that their wedding is about more than just a day of celebration, but a lifetime of love. Real love is a big deal. And for the couples that I have the joy of working with, so is their wedding photography. At the end of your big day, other than that new lifelong partner in crime you’ve hitched yourself to, your photos are all that you get to take with you.

Hi there! I'm Zack, a wedding photographer from Orange County, Ca. Ever since I was a young kid studying (and sketching!) bugs in the backyard, I've had a fierce love for the details in the little moments of this crazy life. I got my first "real" camera when I was 12 and was instantly hooked. As I grew, so did my passion and ability to translate those moments into memories. I had the chance to help photograph a wedding when I was 17 and wow! What an experience! That night, I looked through the photos and fell in love. I knew that capturing the moments that would mean something to someone for the rest of their life was where I belonged.

We had the pleasure of working with Daniel for our wedding and engagement photos, and we couldn't be happier with the experience and the results! From start to finish, Daniel was a true professional and a joy to work with. For our engagement shoot, my wife and I had never had a professional photo shoot, so we were initially not knowing what to expect.

Above all, I want you to walk away from your wedding feeling like you and your new spouse were able to be completely present, immersed in a whirlwind of laughter and dancing and hugs from everyone you love most. Your photos should be a perfect reflection of that. The dream scenario is that you have a wedding photographer who gives off best friend energy and captures the day freely, unreservedly, with all the passion and excitement in the world because photographing love is a genuine pleasure and joy. I have been that person for many and would love to do it for you too.

MKT is amazing to work with! We hired them for our wedding in Newport Beach in July 2022. We were able to do an engagement shoot with Ashley and get to know her prior to our wedding. The photos from the hour-long engagement soot were amazing. She asked me for a shot list ahead of time, and also came with her own. She allowed us 2 outfits and helped us with posing the whole time. Ahead of the wedding, she met me at the venue for a walk-through and went over my shot list. Together on our wedding day Ashley and Marcus easily shot over 2000 photos, and they all showed an attention to detail in both posing and capturing candid moments, the focus, lighting, and coloring was all consistent and beautiful, and the touch ups after made them all look even more gorgeous. MKT was everything I could have hoped for after looking so long for professional, on-time, personable, and reasonably priced photographers.

She is so good at capturing the moment, so her work takes me back to and reminds me the moment vividly. Also, she is competent in catching what her clients want and also excel in understanding photography trends. During the photo shoots, she’s made good & precise instructions for posing and those kept me relax and be natural in front of camera for the whole time.

We met during our early years in college on our school swim team and had a few photography classes together. It was through our mutual love of photography that we started dating.  Fast forward 9 years we are now married!!!   We are both passionate with two diverse backgrounds: Nadia in fine art and Gunnar in journalism/documentary film making. When it comes to shooting we feel we are blessed to be able to pursue what we love together. We are all about what’s real; capturing life’s small (and large!) moments.

As a wedding photographer myself, I have high and clear expectations when it comes to photography. Nadia & Gunnar are my go-to photography team when I need to hire a second photographer. I have the unique experience and privilege of hiring them again and again. I never have to worry about a thing when they are on my team. Both individuals are reliable, consistent, and creative. They always show up early. They are constantly pushing their craft and trying to learn new things. They are extremely detail oriented so couples never have to worry about looking their best. Quiet in nature, Nadia & Gunnar are a calming support system on what is otherwise a chaotic day. I trust them completely with my couples and with my couples' loved ones.

Hi! I'm Ria, but my friends call me Ri. I'm a Southern California based photographer traveling worldwide for weddings, elopements & love. There's nothing that makes me happier than making other people feel fucking GREAT about themselves. I care about eternalizing your story, no matter your race, gender, sexuality or body type — i’m here for you.

If I could give this girl more stars I would. Her work is incredible and I had high expectations for my wedding (because she killed it for my engagement photo shoot) - and man did she blow it out of the water. I felt like I was reliving my dream day when I looked through my gallery - and cried so many times I had to call my mom. Her photos are best in class, and she's the most fun, down to earth person to work with. She made me feel so comfortable the entire day - even though it was 100 degrees outside. I can't recommend her enough, she's a rockstar photographer.

For us, it is all about documenting your day as it unfolds. We are believers that the best photographs come from letting everything flow. We don't believe in interrupting special moments to get a safe (posed) photo. On the contrary, we capture all moments: the fun, the crazy, the unexpected. We will get your dad in tears when he sees you in your wedding gown, and will also take your nephew in the middle of a tantrum. All that is part of your story. When you see your photos in 5 years, you will remember how your special day FELT and not only how it looked. You don't have to worry about photos, you just have to enjoy your day at the fullest.

Fernanda at Eyeblink is a total professional and she knows exactly how to give you space to enjoy to the moment and capture it as it's happening. We organized some portraits with family and friends but mostly she documented our wedding as it truly unfolded. When I look back at our pictures, I'm immediately transported to that exact moment and feel all the incredible feelings all over again. I couldn't be happier with her work. Highly recommend!

Amelia is such a kind spirit and genuinely cares about the story she captures on any special occasion. The care comes across in all the photos she’s taken. Not only was she an amazing photographer but she went out of her way to help me with things that I never expected someone who I had just met to help me with. (She even helped me put on my wedding dress) Her compassion and professionalism is boundless and my husband and I are so lucky to have had someone like her to documented our most important day together. The photos are so beautiful and I will never stop smiling at them for the rest of my life.

She pays attention to every little detail to get the best photos and was so skilled in finding the perfect shots throughout the weekend. We loved working with her and would suggest her to any couple across the country as she knows how to scope out any area for the best shots. Her consultation process was great, she gave us a lot of good ideas and considerations to help us make sure we got in as many good family/friend shots as possible so the whole wedding party could have nice photos to remember the weekend by as well as us. She went above and beyond throughout the wedding night, coming back to grab her camera off the clock to get a bunch of candid photos of the dance floor and reception.

I’m a husband to my high school sweetheart, I’m a dad to three gorgeous little girls, and I love my city of Costa Mesa, CA. Me in a nutshell...good coffee, bacon, and whiskey are my jam. A perfect day off consists of a mountain bike ride, some tacos, and swimming in our pool with my wife and daughters. I spent over 8 years in jobs that sucked the life out of me, but now I have one that breathes life back into me. You see, photography is not my identity…but it's definitely an extension of how I was created to see life. And I got into capturing meaningful moments because I am all about the life behind the moment, not just the event.

From the moment we first connected, we knew it was a perfect fit. Their passion for their craft was infectious, and their genuine interest in our vision was heartwarming. They took the time to get to know us, understand our hopes for the day, and answer every question, no matter how small. On the wedding day itself, they were on their time sharp. They were like ninjas. They were everywhere and nowhere at the same time, capturing every laugh, tear, and dance move without ever being intrusive. They blended seamlessly into the background, yet somehow managed to be in the perfect position for every precious shot. But it wasn't just their technical skill that blew us away. It was their genuine care and attention to detail. They anticipated our needs before we even knew them. They weren't just vendors; they felt like friends, there to support us and celebrate with us every step of the way. And the results? They were nothing short of breathtaking. The photos are exquisite - vibrant and artistic, capturing every emotion and detail with stunning clarity. They tell the story of our day in a way that words never could, making us relive the magic every time we look at them. The video? It's a masterpiece. It's not just a compilation of clips; it's a cinematic experience, weaving together laughter, tears, and heartwarming moments into a cohesive narrative that pulls at your heartstrings. We've already watched it countless times, and each time, it feels like we're back there, living the dream all over again. Asti and Amir, you didn't just capture our wedding; you captured our souls. You gave us a gift that we will cherish forever, a tangible reminder of the love, laughter, and pure magic of our most special day.
