Doug was an absolutely phenomenal wedding photographer! Outside of the photos (an extensive amount of high-quality shots that were given to us, capturing so many perfect and spontaneous moments), Doug was incredibly patient, thorough, and attentive during the entire event, which started with the getting ready photos and lasted until the end of the dancing. We also scheduled engagement photos with him and similarly enjoyed the entire experience, getting so many fantastic photos that we were able to use on our wedding website and our Save the Date cards. Despite our busy schedules, Doug was always very accommodating and prompt in communication with us and our wedding planner. We cannot recommend Doug enough! read more

We hired Doug for our 200 guest wedding and he did not disappoint. We opted for 2 photographers so he and his wife ended up doing the wedding and they are amazing. They really listened to what we wanted and were adaptable to my chaotic environment with my huge family. They were so sweet and encouraging during pictures. Our engagement shoot by Doug turned out amazing too. Just beautiful pictures and lots of variety. Would recommend a hundred times over! read more

Doug was great! He was very easy to communicate with, he was there early and made us feel very comfortable. The pictures came out great!

This review is long overdue. My wife and I hired Doug to photograph our special day and we're so glad we did! Doug did a fantastic job - even despite some less than ideal weather! Doug was very friendly with our family and friends. He was professional and helpful throughout the process, expertly working his way through and around our guests to get a bunch of great pictures of both our ceremony and reception. If you're looking for a wedding photographer we'd highly recommend Doug Miranda Photography! read more

Doug Miranda Photography - Event Photography Near Me - Sacramento, California

Doug did a fantastic job photographing our wedding day! He was communicative leading up to the big day and so helpful in efficiently posing us and our family members for portraits. He captured all the big moments (get ready, first looks down the aisle, vows, first dances) beautifully and caught a bunch of fun candids as well. He was somehow discreet (barely noticed him taking photos) but so thorough with all the shots he got! He even stayed a bit longer because some of our friends favorite songs came on and the dance floor was going wild. We received our photos back within two weeks and are so happy with the full experience that Doug provided. Would 100% recommend Doug to other couples! read more

Hiring Doug Miranda Photography was hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From the very beginning, they were professional, responsive, and made us feel completely at ease. On the wedding day, they managed to capture every special moment--big and small--without ever feeling intrusive. The photos are absolutely stunning. The way Doug plays with light, details, and emotion is incredible; every image tells a story. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the entire day all over again, and we'll truly treasure these photos for the rest of our lives. Beyond their talent, Doug has such a warm, calming presence. They made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera (which is not easy for us!) and even kept us laughing through the portraits. Our family and friends can't stop raving about how beautiful and authentic the photos turned out. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who is not only exceptionally skilled but also kind, professional, and a joy to be around, look no further than Doug Miranda.

Doug was amazing and we HIGHLY recommend him. Here is why: - EXCELLENT photographer. Doug manages to make you feel immediately comfortable and helps coach you through poses and locations. I appreciated how he did an engagement photo shoot with us, which helped us get a good feel for how to take good photos. Come wedding day, the photos were better than I could have ever imagined. My husband and I are still in awe of what Doug managed to capture of us and our family and friends. - AMAZING communication. Doug is perhaps the most communicative person we have encountered in the wedding industry. This is not something to take for granted. Ever since our first phone call with him, he was super transparent and happy to discuss our ideas with us and give his professional thoughts. - Above and BEYOND dedication and professionalism. Doug scouted out our wedding site prior to our wedding day to help map out the best places ahead of time. This allowed us to get the absolute most out of our photography time day-of and resulted in absolutely breathtaking photos while saving us a ton of time. Due to him showing up prepared (and early might I add), we were able to get our dream photos. read more

If you're getting married in the Sacramento/Napa/Lake Tahoe area and thinking about booking Doug, what are you waiting for?!? We hired Doug because we saw some of his previous work at our venue and knew he would scout out the best locations for our photos. The entire process was made smooth because of Doug's friendly demeanor and clear communication. He answered all of our questions with grace and patience and is very quick to reply to email. Most of Doug's wedding packages include a brief engagement session which was nice because it allowed us to get to know him and become comfortable with his shooting style before our big day. The photos turned out great and we could rest easy for 9 months knowing we made the right decision. On the wedding day, Doug brought his wife Christine along as his second shooter. They worked efficiently, capturing every detail of our day as our vendors set up and the bride and groom got ready. They also miraculously captured my entire family smiling in one picture, and were willing to work with my VERY scared and squirmy dog. Despite the brutally cold wind forcing our fall event indoors, we managed to capture some of the most stunning outdoor portraits after the ceremony, especially since they were willing to hike us up the side of a mountain to get my dream photos on a boulder in front of Lake Tahoe. Doug and Christine make an excellent team and they even felt like our guests, posing for some Polaroids we had set out for our friends and family to use throughout the reception! Our photos were processed and returned within a record 6 days!!! We feel so lucky to have had Doug Miranda Photography as an integral part of our best day ever. Thank you for making our wedding photography dreams come true!! read more

My husband and I cannot recommend Doug enough to capture your perfect moments!! I did so much research on different photographers that were recommended by our wedding venue. Doug's photography stood out, so I reached out to him. His communication skills and response time (whether via email or text/call), were great. He took our engagement photos, our wedding portraits, ceremony and reception photos. He got all the pictures back to us so quickly and they were incredible. He's so kind and explains everything so thoroughly. You truly feel comfortable, especially for someone like me who's not the best in the front of the camera. It was such a blessing to be able to work with Doug for our special day. Our pictures turned out so amazing. His talent and work exceeded our expectations. We can't thank him enough. read more

We hired Doug to photograph our wedding this past August and he was a dream to work with. After working in the wedding industry myself for many years, I have learned to appreciate a vendor who is on top of things. Doug was communicative, professional, courteous, and punctual. He captured the photos on our list quickly so that we could enjoy our family and reception, but did not miss out on some absolutely beautiful candid shots throughout the day too. He had a smile on his face the whole day, and his demeanor was very calming and let me know that he had everything under control so we could enjoy the day. Doug told me that he would have our photos ready in a week or two following the event, but delivered the finish product within a few days. The photos were amazing! He under promised and over delivered at every turn. I will absolutely hire him again for my next event! read more

Doug exceeded all our expectations!! He was extremely professional, made us so comfortable, and did an amazing job capturing our wedding day. We had Doug photograph our first look at the Sacramento World Peace Rose Garden and our whole ceremony and reception at the Firehouse Restaurant in October 2023. He did an amazing job capturing everything that we asked for and more. We can't say enough about how easy Doug made our wedding day. He was always in sync with our other vendors at the Firehouse, and he worked with all our family members and guests perfectly. We would definitely recommend Doug to any couple looking for a photographer. - Jake & Katie read more

We loved working with Doug! He was so easy-going for both our engagement shoot, and on the wedding day. He's funny, while still being a complete professional. Our wedding day was an unseasonably hot October day, and he made sure that everyone was comfortable while still getting all our family photos and keeping us looking natural. He did great at capturing the formal and in between moments. We cannot recommend him enough for any special moments you need to capture. read more

Doug was amazing from the beginning, always promptly responding and answering all of my questions!

Can't wait for holiday season photos-you'll be my first call! read more

Doug and his wife Christine were excellent as our wedding photographers in Sonoma, CA! His wife was his second shooter for the day. Doug did a couple phone calls with us before the wedding day so that we were all on the same page. He also responds quickly via email. On the wedding day, Doug took many great photos, both classic wedding phots and candid shots of guests and family members before and during the day. He gave suggestions on how to get the best shots and they all turned out great! He sent the photos within one week and even made a video slideshow of the best pictures. read more

Doug was an absolutely perfect choice for my husband and I at our wedding! He kept us calm and laughing through all of the photoshoots and through the whole event. He even agreed to let us bring our dogs along for the first look :). He captured the spirit of our wedding wonderfully! Also, we found out later that he has some personal stress going on during the wedding, but he was so calm and focused that we didn't pick up on it at all. You can count on Doug! read more

They were able to get so many good shots and they even stepped in to help on other things, like make sure my veil was in and helping my husband remove his pocket stitching. Such pros! Highly recommend for your big day. read more

If you are in need of a photographer, look no further than Doug Miranda. We had Doug as our photographer at our May 6, 2022 wedding and he did an amazing job. Doug was extremely knowledgeable and knew exactly what the best shots would be. He was very patient with us, especially as we tried to incorporate our 4 month old into our pictures. He did a great job at the cocktail hour and the reception as well. He was somehow always around to get the best shots, but never in your way. He captured so many amazing memories and I am so grateful that he was part of our day. He received many compliments from my wedding guests and all agreed he did a great job. We are so pleased with how our photos turned out, we love them all. I would recommend Doug Miranda Photography to anyone needing a photographer. read more

Doug Miranda Photography - Event Photography Near Me - Sacramento, California

My wife and I hired Doug Miranda to capture the memories of our big day and we could not be happier with our decision. We researched a good handful of photographers, reaching out to many for initial consultations and/or quotes. Doug's company had fantastic reviews and from day one Doug was responsive to our communication and was nothing but helpful. He provided good, to the point, and timely information that allowed my wife and I to feel comfortable hiring him as our photographer. There were a series of packages available to choose from. After a couple consultations with Doug we choose a photography package and he provided us with a contract to review and sign. I appreciated the clarity in the agreement; from a business standpoint I knew exactly what to expect. We took advantage of a promotion the company was running at the time we signed our agreement and received a complimentary engagement photo session. The pictures he took were beautiful and we got really excited to see how the pictures from the actual wedding would turn out (Spoiler Alert: they are amazing). We had an intimate ceremony and reception, with only a handful of guests. Doug was able to capture the big moments as well as a ton of the little ones. He captured a little piece of everything without ever seeming to be in the way. He works in a such a way that preserves the organic chemistry of the whole affair. He works quickly too. We were impressed at the turn around in editing and production after both the engagement photo session and the actual wedding. Doug even took the time to throw together a beautiful slideshow after the wedding and shared it with us on YouTube. I didn't expect that. It was an incredibly nice touch. Above all, Doug is professional, and just a down right really nice guy. Your wedding day is such a big day, it's nice to know that everyone involved wants to be a part of the special occasion. And Doug really made us feel like he was honored to be a part of our big day. Professionalism is there. High quality work and craftsmanship is there. We cannot thank Doug enough for the work he did in memorializing our wedding. We will always be able to look back on those photos and remember just how awesome that day really was. And we have Doug to thank for that. Hire that man! read more

You will thank yourself later when you book this excellent, efficient photographer and see how amazing he makes you look! Doug and the wedding photos were easily the least stressful aspect of planning our May 2023 wedding. His experience and professionalism were apparent from our first conversation and carried through to his quick turn around on the photos. What I personally appreciated about working with Doug was his ability to listen to what we wanted and work with us to recommend a timeline that would work for getting all the photos we wanted. His timeline was incredibly accurate and he kept a close eye-- far more so than our day-of coordinator at the venue-- on timing and light, getting us all the photos we wanted. Something else we appreciated about Doug was that he was everywhere but unobtrusive-- we got a ton of the candid shots we wanted interacting with our guests as well as the family portraits we requested. For two people who don't normally love being photographed,we were thrilled with the photographs. Doug also got the photographs turned around incredibly quickly, inside a week and in an easily-accessible gallery. When we had a medical issue pop up that might have delayed the wedding date, Doug was also super flexible and worked with us while we figured out the situation, which took some stress out of a stressful situation. We appreciate him as an artist and a vendor and can't recommend him highly enough. read more

Finding a good photographer to capture your nuptials can be a daunting task. After many hours of reading numerous reviews, comparing work, calling several photographers, and meeting with a couple of them, we ended up choosing Doug for both our engagement and wedding photos. After you finish reading this review, do yourselves a favor, don't waste any more time and energy searching and call him to see if he's available for your special day. He's excellent. He has 5 star ratings across the board on The Knot, Wedding Wire, and Yelp including multiple "Best of..." annual awards. He is both technically superb and very personable. His ability to manipulate lighting and composition really shines through in the resulting photos. His laid back demeanor doesn't make you feel rushed, even when you're breezing through the shot lists for the day. After choosing Doug as our photographer, he continued to be approachable and easily accessible throughout our wedding planning journey. When we had questions, we were able to get our answers quickly through email. If the questions required more discussion, we set up phone meetings to discuss our questions. Doug's expertise and experience was a huge help and relief especially for a detail oriented bride. Doug provides several packages to capture your special day. Our package included an engagement photo shoot. Doug has great suggestions for photo shoot locations. We chose Lake Tahoe. Doug's attention to detail and Customer Service were impeccable. During our shoots he allowed and encouraged us to be creative in order to capture our true essence as a couple. During some moments where we were not sure how to pose, he was such a professional in the way he directed our shots and made us feel really comfortable. Our experience with Doug during both the engagement photo shoot and our wedding day was both fun and memorable. One of the most important things about capturing your day is making sure that the photographer captures the emotions of the special moments and those closest to you. Doug and his wife Christine (2nd shooter) did an excellent job of making sure to get the shots we were looking for. We want to point this out because the wedding videographers we hired didn't have that awareness and it made for a less than stellar video. Doug is someone who is invested in knowing who and what will be most important for you. Your wedding day will feel hectic and fly by. You won't get to see all of the great moments happening around you as you will be focused on the important things, like walking down the aisle without tripping and staring deeply into the eyes of your lover during your first dance. After it is all said and done, you will really cherish having the precious moments of your day captured on more than just your guests cellphones. Again, do yourselves a favor and see if Doug is available. You won't regret it! read more

Doug Miranda Photography - No wind necessary for this shot... ;) - Event Photography Near Me - Sacramento, California

Doug photographed my husband's and my engagement session in October 2020, and our wedding day in June 2021. I'm not sure what I can add that hasn't already been said in his many glowing reviews, but I will say this: I had very high hopes before working with Doug, and still he exceeded all of my expectations. Doug is responsive, easygoing, friendly with a good sense of humor, professional, and on top of all that he took incredibly beautiful, timeless photographs that we will cherish for a lifetime. Doug suggested our engagement session location in Coloma and we loved the way the photographs turned out. Thinking back now, there are a few reasons I'm really glad we took advantage of the engagement session. First, we got to know Doug before the wedding day which was really fun, and seeing him on the wedding day was like welcoming a friend to the party. Also, the engagement session gave us the opportunity to get an idea of his working style. This helped a lot on the day of the wedding because we were familiar with some of the cues and poses he uses in his photographs. My husband and I aren't ones who love having our photograph taken and very rarely have professional photographs done. The engagement session gave us an opportunity to loosen up in front of the camera and get used to being the subject of many, many photographs once the wedding day arrived. Doug made us feel very comfortable; I would even say we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. As a bonus, we had beautiful photographs to choose from for our Save the Date! We were married at Helwig Winery, with "first look" and family photos taken at the Davancy Chateau (affiliated with Helwig). Although Doug hadn't photographed a wedding at these locations, he did a fantastic job scouting both properties for really beautiful backdrop locations. I was shocked by how beautiful the photographs turned out in spots at both locations that I never realized would be so stunning -- truly a testament to his skill and artistic eye. As a fun addition on the wedding day, Doug's wife Christine helped with taking photographs and also fanning my train out nearly every time we moved to a new photo location. She was a lot of fun, dancing while working, and I'm so happy she was part of the day. Something that I read in previous reviews that I want to echo because it was important to me: Doug captured so, so many moments in his photographs even though I barely noticed he was there. He is not intrusive at all -- I think I caught only a few glimpses of him out of the corner of my eye all night. I was amazed by the emotions he was able to capture on both mine and my husband's faces, as well as our guests. He even got some really cute shots of my dog before, during (she was a flower girl), and after the wedding which are really special to me. I get to relive the day and night through his photographs, truly reliving every feeling and emotion, thanks to his amazing skill. It's been really special, because as the cliché goes, the day really does fly by. The only negative thing I can say is that it will be impossible to choose which photos to print and hang on my wall -- they are all too stunning to choose from! All jokes aside, we could not be more thrilled to have worked with Doug (and Christine!), and we happily recommend them to our friends, family, and anyone else who will listen! read more

My wife and I contacted Doug Miranda about his wedding photography and were very happy with the service he provided. He responded quickly and professionally to our original inquiry and arrived early for our big event. He was extremely personable and ensured we got the shots we wanted while also suggesting some of his own. He selected the best photos, touched them up, and had them back to us only 4 days later! Honestly this was the best photography experience I have ever had. Both an excellent price and excellent service for what we received. We will be using Doug again for any future photography needs. Highly recommended! read more

Doug was such a wonderful choice to have as our wedding photographer! He even drove up from the Sacramento area to take our engagement shots where we live in San Francisco.

He also recommended our videographer (Barrel9) and they worked flawlessly together. We got our photos back sooner than expected, and they look incredible! We could not have made a better choice than Doug to capture our day. read more

I cannot say enough great things about Doug! We had him photograph our engagement photos back in October and we loved them. He was able to capture some great photos with our dogs, who are notoriously distracted outside. I love the way he uses light to capture some really unique shots. Like most couples, we had to change our wedding plans due to COVID, and Doug was able to accommodate these changes. Eventually, we decided to cancel our wedding overall, but because we loved Doug's photography so much, we had him do a photoshoot at our original venue. We are so happy that we have these to look back on in the future. We are both not super comfortable in front of the camera, but Doug made it so easy to capture some great moments. read more

I know we have visioned a fall wedding and was so excited about fall in Tahoe, but the man above had other plans for the day. I never thought I would be getting married in a little snow storm, it was definitely one to remember! I literally felt like I was in a snowglobe or a hallmark movie, it was incredible and I'll never forget it.

We have portraits and candids that we equally love. He found the spots at our venue with the best lighting and used them. He even set up lights at the venue to make sure we got great photos of the toasts and first dances. He was very respectful of our covid safety measures. A true professional and very nice person. We are so glad we found Doug and chose to work with him! read more

Doug Miranda Photography - The Flower Farm in March - Event Photography Near Me - Sacramento, California

I was a bridesmaid in my best friend's wedding in 2017 and she had hired Doug as her photographer. Fast forward to 2022, I got engaged and was doing research for a photographer. I came across Doug's website and remembered I had met him already and loved the pictures he took at my friend's wedding. I contacted him and after confirming he was available on our wedding date, we booked him! Doug was able to take our engagement photos and our wedding day photos. Engagement session was on THE hottest day of the year in June and the wedding was on THE coldest night of the year in December. Despite the extreme temps, Doug had the coolest calmest temperament. This was extremely important to me especially on the day of my wedding. You spend so much of your day with your photo/video people. My highest priority with all of my vendors was making sure they didn't stress me out more than I needed to be and Doug definitely made the process enjoyable. I'm not a very picture-takery person. I don't know what to do with my hands! His directions were great and we felt comfortable. I appreciated that he scheduled a phone call before the wedding date to go over all our preferences, wish-list pictures, logistics, etc. We weren't sure if it was going to rain the day of so he had come up with some contingency plans. We were also so happy with the planning and recon he did beforehand for the first look location, it took a lot off my plate. Second shooter on the Wedding Day, Wendy, was great as well! We are so happy with the photos taken, we couldn't ask for much more! read more
