Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Weddings by Katherine Marchand 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves San Simeon, CA

I'm Katherine, a wedding photographer based in Oakland, CA. With over a decade of experience and features in Vogue, Brides, The New York Times, and more, I know how to create wedding photos that don’t just look stunning — they feel like you. No trendy filters, no forced poses, just authentic moments that reflect who you are. I believe the best moments aren’t staged. They unfold naturally, in the quiet glances, the belly laughs, and those unspoken connections shared with your loved ones. My goal is to capture those raw, in-between moments that truly make your wedding day yours!

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to even begin! Investing in Katherine to do our wedding photos for our August 2021 wedding was the best decision we made, other than getting married! She had done a friends' wedding so I had started following her on instagram long before my husband and I got engaged. We were planning our wedding back west, and so we started looking at photographers back there but I just couldn't find anyone who measured up to Katherine. Listen--if you want "trendy" photos for instagram with lots of filters, orange skin tones, poses, etc--then Katherine isn't for you. But if you want photos that truly capture your day how it really was, then look no further. I spent years pouring over my parents' and grandparents' wedding albums wanting something that felt that classic and real. And real is exactly what Katherine does. She has this amazing ability to be everywhere and no where all at once. I have been in a lot of weddings, seen a lot of wedding albums, and I have never seen a photographer capture candids as well as she does--the photos feel like screenshots from a movie where we look happy and fabulous all of the time! She truly has a photojournalistic approach. She caught every teary hug, hand squeeze, and glance from across the room. And her ability to make every type of light work to her advantage (harsh mid-day, dark dance floor, etc) is truly incredible. And don't worry--she will also get all of those family photos that your parents want and do it in a painless, seamless way! While we were initially hesitant about the cost of hiring a photographer from NYC to shoot a wedding back west, her prices are MORE than fair for what you are getting! She even did a mini shoot with us the night before to get us comfortable in front of the camera and they are some of my favorite photos from the weekend. Also--she made everyone feel so relaxed and comfortable the day of. My bridesmaids were obsessed with her (I mean how could you not be? She shows up in a gucci suit with effortless cool girl energy and is like "let's do this!"), she managed wrangling our very large wedding party with ease and even got my grandma to smile in photos which is a big deal! We woke up the next day to about 15 sneak peak photos from the night before, and had our entire wedding album in 6 weeks! The hardest part is choosing which photos to print! There are just too many that we love. TLDR: Hire this girl, she is smart as a whip, reliable, talented, and a consummate professional!

We are absolutely thrilled with the exceptional service provided by Alli – Alexandra Wallace for our engagement and wedding photos. From the initial consultation to the final delivery (within 30 days of the date!) of the photos, every step of the process was handled smooth, organized and her creativity is amazing! On the day of the wedding, Alli went above and beyond to capture every special moment. She was well-prepared, but also incredibly personable, making everyone feel at ease in front of the camera. Her ability to blend into the background while still capturing candid, intimate moments was truly impressive. We love her style each and every photo. What sets Alli apart is her attention to detail and dedication. She knew the perfect spots for our first look, bridal shots, and family photos. She also managed to capture the essence and emotions of the day beautifully, providing us with a stunning collection of photos that we will cherish forever.

Hi my name is Amber and I cannot wait to embark on this next journey in life with you. I picked up my first camera almost 20 years ago when I was 13 and I haven't put one down since. As a wedding, elopement and adventure photographer I am here to document your memories, tell your stories and capture those moments you ordinarily wouldn't even see. I am beyond passionate about what I do. I'm not simply taking your photos, I'm telling your stories and I cannot wait to start your next chapter with you.

Anyone thinking of booking Amber for a wedding, engagement shoot, or just some family photos… Do not hesitate! Where to begin… Amber is outstanding! We booked Amber for our elopement to San Francisco from the UK in Nov 2023. At first we were apprehensive about making the big commitment to a photographer, we wouldn’t have the chance to meet face to face before the big day. But we were quickly put at ease after speaking with Amber. From our initial enquiry, right through to Amber putting us in the cab back to our hotel after our ceremony, Amber was a dream to work with… The relationship we developed was so professional, yet friendly and fun. Amber was super organised, and very responsive to all our questions and emails, communicating from the UK was not an issue at all… Even up until the morning of our ceremony, Amber was in regular contact with advice, and guidance on how everything would run. Amber listened to our all ideas and worked with us to put together a package that captured exactly what we wanted, and more! Both my husband and I were very nervous about having our photo taken, but Amber immediately put us at ease, and made us feel so comfortable and relaxed.. We weren’t even aware of onlookers, and the photos came out amazing. We’re so thankful we have such beautiful photos to look back on. We are truly so grateful for Amber and the time she spent with us, we could not recommend Amber enough… She smashed it, and we couldn’t have done it without her!

She spent time getting to know us and made sure we were able to capture amazing, memorable photos, without losing sight of the actual point of the day and party we were there to enjoy. Multiple times she seamlessly adapted our shot plan on-the-fly to let us have more time to be with guests or have a moment to ourselves when she sensed we needed it. ALSO she was a baby whisperer with our flower girl and turned frowns into smiles and I'm still not sure how she did that. Highly recommend Hiba!

From the very first conversation, they were friendly, prompt, and easy-going, which put us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work is incredible - the photos they took are absolutely beautiful and so nostalgic, perfectly capturing all the special moments of our wedding day. They really listened to what we wanted and exceeded our expectations, delivering photos that our friends and family have been raving about. In fact, we loved the photos so much that we ended up ordering numerous prints to share with our loved ones.

I mix editorial and documentary style photography for a wedding gallery that feels nostalgic and luxurious. I am here to make the never-shot-before-couple look like they belong in a magazine spread and I will capture candid, living, details and moments on your wedding day that will bring you back to that first touch time and time again. We are a husband and wife team that offers wedding photography and super 8 films. We also have a team of associate photographers for those on a budget.

We couldn't be happier with choosing Brittany as our wedding photographer. She photographed our NYE wedding where she perfectly captured the vintage & timeless vibes we had envisioned. My husband and I don't have experience in being in front of the camera, but Brittany made us feel so comfortable. I am always shocked at how well she captures us on camera. We have gotten so many compliments on our photos from friends and family. If you're looking for a photographer who just gets it, hire Brittany. 3

Hi! My name is Bailey and I am the owner of Baileaves Photography. I am a travel and destination wedding photographer based in Portland, Oregon. I travel all over the world to create timeless cinematic images of couples.

We are so grateful to have had Bailey as our wedding photographer. She was very kind, respectful, and professional. My partner and I loved how encouraging and supportive she was. We appreciated how and where she posed us, taking into consideration where the lighting was going, especially since we had many passing clouds affecting the sun exposure. As a result, she got a lot of wonderful pictures with gorgeous dappled lighting and beautiful greenery. She sent us previews of our wedding within 48 hours and she sent us the rest of our photos by the deadline she communicated with us at the beginning. Knowing how awesome our previews turned out, it was no surprise that the rest of our photos also turned out as amazing. We are very happy to have worked with her! Thanks, Bailey!!
