We booked Danielle for our August 2025 wedding in Petaluma. We could not have made a better choice…read morethan Danielle. She was so warm, easy to work with, creative, and accommodating. I had shown her some inspo photos and I feel like she totally grasped the editing and style we were wanting. We started with our 1 hour engagement session at Muir Beach and they were some of the most beautiful and happy photos. We really appreciated Danielle for taking the time to meet with us before our big day. She has such helpful pointers and prompts that made us both feel comfortable in front of the camera really quickly. For our wedding day, she and her photography partner were AMAZING. We ended up buying an extra hour or two and it was so worth it to have getting ready photos. She was such a fun part of the day. Our photos truly feel like she captured the energy and emotions we felt. She took time to understand the family dynamics and was so flexible with it all. She even helped me bustle my wedding dress!! Her positive and encouraging messages were also just icing on the cake for working with her. My husband and I cannot recommend Danielle more for your special day. Thank you, Danielle!!!

Danielle was amazing to work with- we planned a trip to CA from the midwest and she was really…read moreflexible with our timeline, splitting our 2 hour session into 2 locations on different days to accommodate weather and our travel plans. Our first day, we lucked out with awesome weather on the beach and she caught some really great photos-like I was just giddy looking through them-but then holy cow, we did a couples boudoir shoot on the second day and it was one of the most fun things we've EVER done together as a couple. She made us feel really comfortable, and she was engaged and enthusiastic the whole time. The photos were amazing-lots of gasps and "awwws" as we went through them, and a few tears too... So happy we met Danielle, we'll probably do it again when we come back to CA!

Working with Alison and her team was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Not only were they…read moreincredibly professional, but they were also so warm, friendly, and easy to be around. They blended seamlessly into our wedding party and made everyone feel comfortable, allowing every moment to unfold naturally. From the very beginning, Alison took the time to get to know us, understand our vision, and learn what was most important to us. She truly listened, and then executed everything more perfectly than we could have imagined. When we finally sat down to look through our wedding gallery, we were completely blown away. Every photo is absolutely beautiful. One of the things we appreciated most was how Alison and Amy captured not only all of the big moments, but also the countless little in-between moments that we either weren't together for or didn't even realize were happening. Looking through the gallery allowed us to experience our wedding day from a whole new perspective and brought us right back to every emotion we felt. The photos tell the story of our day so naturally and beautifully, and we'll treasure them for the rest of our lives. We are beyond grateful for the care, talent, and attention to detail that Alison and Amy put into capturing our wedding. Choosing them as our photographers was one of the best decisions we made, and we couldn't recommend them more highly!

I ended up entering in a giveaway for engagement photos and we won! My fiancé and I were so excited since we didn't think we'd be able to get pictures done due to our short timeframe before our wedding. She was able to work with our tight schedule and we couldn't be happier with the whole experience! Alison was so personable, professional, and an absolute gem! She made us feel so comfortable, she was even able to get my fiancé to smile! Lol our photo session was so smooth and the location she picked was gorgeous, it was exactly the vibe we wanted. Also, she was able to edit our pictures so fast, which is a HUGE plus and we couldn't be happier! I literally cried when I seen them! She made my dreams come to life through her photo's! We were blown away and will definitely be booking with her again!

We found Jaime and Dennis through our wedding coordinator, who gave them a top rating, and we were…read morenot disappointed in the results! We interviewed a half dozen wedding photographers, and after a whirlwind experience I can confidently say that J & D are the most communicative and easy to work with. They have a can-do attitude and bring a low key sense of humor and enthusiasm to their projects. Everybody got along easily with them. Their equipment they use gave them a lot of options for getting great shots, they knew when to take advantage of good lighting, and they were SO kind about the few time they asked us to pose in the moment--a quick, "hey look over here!". Those quick and easy moments all paid off ... now that we have the shots we can see why they went for it. They included engagement photos in their package, and that shoot was a super fun adventure, everybody was in a good mood, so of course we got great photos that we'll have forever. I can't emphasize enough how many of the OTHER photographer candidates we interviewed came to their projects with an attitude like, 'this is how WE do things', or asking intrusive personal questions, or making us come down to their office for a sales pitch... J & D don't do ANY of that. They came to us, they're easy to work with, they made a lot of great game time decisions, and we have photos of everything we want, and they look great. What more could we ask for? Thanks J & D!

Where to begin with praise for Jaime and Dennis? They photographed our wedding this past June in…read moreBig Sur and we could not have found photographers with more warmth, heart, patience, flexibility, and, above all things, the most beautiful results. Like many other reviewers, when looking for a photographer, we wanted an approach that was more journalistic, but still had an editorial bent. In other words, we didn't want a ton of posed photos, but instead wanted moments captured in a beautiful, subtle, and elegant way. I came across a photo that Jaime took of a row of grandparents laughing, and knew almost right then and there that I would want to work with them. I loved the process of talking and even negotiating with Jaime and Dennis. From the get go, they were interested in who we are, our lives, and what we wanted out of our photographs. I got the sense that they don't take cookie-cutter approaches to wedding photography, and love that philosophy. They both worked with us to come up with a package that fit our budget and made sense for everyone, always being extremely responsive and professional. On our wedding weekend, Dennis and Jaime were phenomenal. They blended in seamlessly with our guests and vendors, would get into any position for great photos (at some point I was scared Dennis was going to fall off a cliff), and cared enough in the flow of the day to not take us away from the party for too long, yet long enough so that we got beautiful shots. Beyond that, Jaime actually was extraordinary in helping with little things, like when the train of my dress got dirty from walking on the street - she had all sorts of ideas on how we could get the marks out, and went out of her way to do so. When we got the images a mere 2 weeks later (!!), I was blown away. The images were so special and captured spontaneous moments not just of us but also of our guests. There are so many photos I want to frame and two months later, I still go through them every week or so because of how beautiful they are. In sum, all I can really say to people considering Viera Photographics is: Hire Jaime and Dennis now, before their schedules get booked up! You won't be sorry!

Sara Press is a magical photo wizard ninja. I don't know how she does it. I did lots of research to…read morefind someone who captured the emotion of weddings and also the kind of light, dimension, and warmth I wanted to see. Somehow, she was available for my wedding date! Sara did so much more than just take amazing photos. She helped me plan the timing of the whole day, with expert guidance and perspective on lighting and flow. She dedicated a lot of time and energy to help plan and prep with me so she really understood what we wanted for our big day. She was responsive and professional and also personable, sweet, and funny. When the day arrived, Sara and her second photographer Cecilia helped everything run so smoothly. She even knew how to calm me down when I was freaking out. Sara wrangled our big rowdy family and had lots of tricks for getting natural facial expressions and poses out of everyone including the children and the awkward adults. She kept us laughing while also moving us through the many groups we had lined up. I just looked through all the photos from the ceremony and I can't believe how many angles Sara and Cecilia captured-- they were everywhere... but how??? I swear they went into ninja stealth mode and nobody actually saw them... that's some real photo magic. And of course, the photos themselves are divine. She captured the love, the tears, the laughter, the silly moments and the sweet ones. She made art out of our wedding and my husband and I will be forever grateful.

I truly cannot say enough good things about Tammy. Some people just have a gift, and you look at…read moretheir work and think, wow, this is exactly what they were meant to do. Tammy is one of those people. She is an incredible photographer. She notices light, angles, expressions, and tiny details that other people would completely miss, and somehow turns those moments into beautiful images that actually feel like the day. She is also just a wonderful person to work with. She is kind, reliable, easygoing, and really understood our vision. We did not want to spend hours posing for photos or feel like we were missing our own wedding. We wanted to be present, spend time with our friends and family, and have the day captured as it naturally unfolded. Tammy completely got that. Neither of us is particularly comfortable in front of a camera, but she made us feel SO relaxed throughout the entire process. She made our families feel comfortable too, and she was amazing at navigating the chaos of an Indian wedding with more than 250 guests. She also brought a second shooter who was wonderful. We were already so happy with the photos from our engagement shoot, and the highlight images we have received from the wedding are absolutely beautiful. If what you care about most is capturing people, their reactions, their emotions, and the actual love and joy of a wedding, rather than spending the whole day posing, Tammy is your person. Her candid photography is incredible, and the photos genuinely make you feel what the day felt like. We are so grateful we found her and could not recommend her more.

Tammy also uses online tools that make viewing and sharing pictures really easy - something we didn't think about, but that we're grateful for. Overall, Tammy was awesome - highly recommended!

If you…read moreare searching for a photographer for your wedding to capture the most important day of your life, she is the one. You can stop searching now. I was never the little girl who dreamed my whole life of every detail of my wedding day. Before I got engaged, I only knew 2 things that I wanted for my wedding. The song I would walk down the aisle to and that I wanted Kristy to be my photographer. I had been following her work for several years, only hoping that one day I'd be lucky enough to have a reason to need her services. Kristy exceeded every expectation I had. She quickly responded to every email I sent her. She was extremely helpful in answering all the questions I had about the wedding day and I trusted all the feedback she gave me. She was flexible and understanding through the entire planning process. She took time to come to the wedding venue the night before at the rehearsal to get familiar with everybody in the wedding party and family members whom she would be shooting the following day. She scouted the best locations for pictures and made sure everything was set with the venue coordinator. She did all of this in such a natural and comfortable way that I was completely confident about the wedding day. The day of the wedding, she arrived early and was extremely helpful in keeping the time schedule we had planned. She managed all of my family and bridal party in such a professional and easy going way that not only were we able to get all the shots we wanted, but everyone enjoyed every moment of the process. Kristy is fun and makes everyone feel comfortable having their picture taken. During the ceremony and after, Kristy fit in so easily to every situation and never interrupted a single moment, although each important moment was captured. And then came the photographs. I will never be able to do justice in words the beauty of my wedding pictures. I have hundreds of stunning images that capture the love, emotion, fun, and beauty that was present at my wedding. There are so many candid pictures of the most meaningful moments of that day that I will be able to treasure forever. I am eternally grateful for Kristy and all of the photographs I have of my special day. She is simply the best there is.
