We had an amazing experience working with Josh! From the start, he really took the time to understand the look and vibe we were going for, and he nailed it perfectly. He was more than willing to travel to the location we wanted, which made the whole experience even more special. His attention to detail and ability to make us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the shoot really made all the difference.

Awarded Best of Zola
Marisa and Tim were absolutely amazing! We had originally planned for them to photograph our micro wedding in December 2020. However, due to Covid protocols, that was not possible. Because of this, they were incredibly accommodating and we had a newlywed session in November 2021 at the LA Arboretum. Since it was our first photoshoot, my husband and I were nervous. Throughout the entire process, Marisa maintained communication, was super helpful with providing tips, and calmed our nerves! The photoshoot was so much fun! Marisa and Tim made us laugh the entire time, always keeping in mind the details that were important to us. If you’re looking for photographers who will partner with you while also creating beautiful photographs, we highly recommend them!

Whether you prefer posed portraits or candid moments, I'll craft a collection that reflects your unique story.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Aja and her team were so wonderful to work with! Aja was soo nice on the phone for our initial call and my husband and I clicked immediately with her.

Your wedding album transcends time as a cherished heirloom, destined to be passed down through generations. Each detail of your special day merits an exquisite capture, narrating your unique love story with grace and authenticity. Our approach ensures that your wedding remains a celebration of love and not merely a production set for photography, preserving the essence of your day in a luxurious and timeless manner.

I don’t even know where to start, I can’t remember how I came across Kaitlin’s business but I’m so glad I did. She couldn’t have been sweeter. I was on a tight budget and after I received her pricing (which was very fair) I let her know it was out of my budget and she immediately offered to work within my budget and talk through what we could do. I also had my heart set on a videographer and she brought in her friend Nicole, they made the best team and worked so well together. They even offered to meet me for coffee and see the first look spot so I’d feel more comfortable the day of. Fast forward to the important part, Kaitlin is calm, professional, and truly wants the best for what you want during your special day. She does not pressure you to get a shot that doesn’t make you feel comfortable because she wants you to remember the parts of the day most important to you. We received sneak peek photos within 24 hours which was so impressive and they were beautiful, it had me counting down the days until the full album was done! We loved our photos and our friends and family had so many great things to say about them as well. You won’t regret hiring Kaitlin!

Hey guys! My name’s Jennifer Auner, a professional third-wheeler. I’m also a mama to two of the sweetest little guys around Rudy + Daniel, and wife to my high school sweetheart, Chris. My obsessions include the art of drag, Disneyland dates, and finding the best boba in every town I visit!

This is my 2nd time being married and I hated my wedding photos from my first wedding so my wedding photos were a top priority for my wedding. I was referred to Jennifer and from our first communication I just felt like she was the way to go - I trusted my gut and I was not disappointed. While I haven't received all of my final photos I have gotten a large teaser album and I'm obsessed with it all. She was incredible to talk with during the planning process and was a dream on the wedding day. She killed the checklist and sticking to the timeline!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot speak highly enough about Belinda - both as a person, and as a professional. Planning a wedding during COVID was HARD, but working with Belinda was by far the easiest and most rewarding part. From having to move dates multiple times, to our venue actually permanently closing just months before our event, Belinda has been the backbone of our marriage experience. She worked with us, and provided SO much additional support and experience through the process. We ended up having a wedding photoshoot in a nature center recommended to us by her and I couldn't be happier with the results. She responds extremely quickly, and will provide you with ANY information you seek. Literally. She is like an encyclopedia of wedding knowledge. She is funny, personable, has a wonderful husband helper, and the know-how to get the job done. My husband and I are not photogenic, but she made us look excellent with great direction and patience. Can you tell how much I love Belinda?

Plus, he gave us some great recommendations around the area that we hadn't even heard of! We have never really had pictures taken of us before in a romantic setting by a professional before, that alone was pretty intimidating for us. Norbert made the entire photo experience a lot less intimidating for us to go through, the pictures came out perfect in the end!
