Highly recommend if you are looking for a wedding photographer. She perfectly captured the romantic, fairy tale mood we wanted. Her day-of presence never made us feel stressed, rushed, tired, or fake; it was like having your best friend take pictures of you. She caught every single moment thanks to the detailed itinerary she worked out with us, and the editing was true-to-life and made us look our best while still showcasing the style that drew us to her. We received a ton of sneak peek pictures before we even finished our honeymoon. Our second shooter, Julie, was fun and helpful, and really made sure we had coverage everywhere.

Her empowering presence and expert coaching during the shoot were invaluable. Then came the photographs! A stunning display of her technical skill and artistic vision.

This was my first time taking professional headshots, and I was tense and uncomfortable posing. However, Kimmelle was creative, patient and helped me captured the right photos.

I had an amazing experience and definitely will be working with Kimmelle again and referring her to families and friends in the future. Kimmelle provided high quality pictures but at a lower price compared to others. She provided me with the pictures within 24 hours. I am very pleased with my pictures. They are exceptional!

She is totally on top of it and we felt very confident about her abilities and her work ethic before the actual wedding. On the day of the wedding she was punctual, organized, and was a nice, happy addition to our event. She was great about telling us how to pose and getting our various family member combinations in and out of photos super efficiently. During cocktail hour she got a lot of great candids without feeling like she was in the way or too much. She also sent our photos in a very timely manner after the wedding! The photos of course were fantastic and we're so happy with them. Working with Jen was a pleasure through and through and I can't recommend her enough!

Jennifer is absolutely incredible! We got married in November 2025. I had been searching for a…read morephotographer for our wedding, and I fell in love with Jennifer's work. She was actually the first decision I made for our wedding! I reached out to her, and from the very start, she was so helpful, responsive, and incredibly sweet, even when we had to put things on hold as we had to look for a new venue and date. She was such a joy to work with and made my now-husband and I feel very comfortable. Jennifer is very thoughtful and really tries to capture your vision. We had her for our engagement shoot and wedding day, and the pictures came out beautifully. Our wedding was less structured, and we ended up getting unexpected rain, but she came prepared with a plan. We decided not to have a second photographer, and she somehow managed to do everything, photography and film! I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a photographer! If I ever find myself in need of a photographer again, I would definitely come back to her!

From receiving the quote all the way to the finalization of the gallery, she never stopped answering questions and always had recommendations to make everything better and smoother. 2. She had fun energy and made the photoshoot enjoyable and memorable. Both my fiancé and I are introverted people that don't really take a lot of pictures. However, working with Stephanie was such an easy and relaxed experience. 3. She does her research and it shows. She is based in LA / OC County, I did request her to come out to Northern San Diego County. I had chosen one spot for the proposal. She came back to me and asked if we would also like to take pictures at another spot a few miles away. So while we originally only had one place to take pictures, we ended up taking pictures at two different places that were both great. 4. The photos came out amazing. The entire galley of photos she had were amazing and we wish we could have kept them all. The hardest part about the entire process were narrowing down our favorite photos in the galley. 10/10 Would Take More Pictures with Stephanie

She was so sweet and so easy to work with. Not only are her photos stunning, but Aja took such good care of us every time we were shooting with her (engagement shoot and wedding day). Her and Sydney and Andy were the best photo team on the big day. My husband and I had never taken professional photos like this before, so Aja helped us pose and feel comfortable and have so much fun, enough where we were SHOCKED by how good we looked when the photos came back. Seriously, we look amazing and I couldn't be happier. Aja is also so organized and responsive. She provided us with a timeline for the wedding day and had us fill out a shot list of all the people we wanted to get photos with to make sure we didn't miss anyone. Also, when the dancing started, my bustle broke and it was Aja who helped stuff my dress into itself so I could party the rest of the night! And she made it look good! I can't sing her praises enough. I highly highly recommend!

If you are reading this right now, you should go ahead and book Carmen already for your big day! ;)…read moreYou absolutely won't regret it!! My husband and I knew we wanted to book Carmen early on in our wedding planning process - in fact, she was the first vendor we booked. After we picked a venue, we worked with Carmen's schedule since we knew 1000% that we wanted to have her document our big day. From the beginning Carmen was super friendly and communicative with quick responses throughout the week (usually on weekends she is likely at a wedding). She was also very organized and had questionnaires to help us get to know each other better on a more personal level so we wouldn't feel like strangers on the big day. We went with one of her packages which included an engagement session (which was super fun and matched what we were envisioning - a "naturey" theme with mountains/hills in the background), a second shooter (who was super amazing!), an heirloom album (which we are currently working with her on), and more! The engagement session was extremely helpful for us because we were slightly nervous before the shoot, but the more time we spent with her, the more relaxed and at ease we felt (which is saying a lot because my husband and I are both introverts). We liked that Carmen could help us naturally pose and that her editing style was not too overly edited but allowed the natural beauty in each shot to shine. We also really appreciated Carmen's flexibility - my husband and I are both healthcare workers who have varying schedules and sometimes work weekends, but she was able to still plan our engagement session and our Zoom calls around our busy schedules. After the big day, when we look back on our wedding day, one thing that really stood out was how many of our guests were amazed with Carmen and her second shooter; the small details Carmen noticed made a lasting impression on a lot of our family members such as when Carmen and her second shooter would hold onto our guests' purses or sunglasses and make sure everyone looked essentially before taking photos. My mother-in-law couldn't stop raving about Carmen and how attentive she was to each guest. We also enjoyed all the photos of the wedding venue, each of our guests, and small moments and details that my husband and I might not have noticed since we were all over the place on the day of our wedding. At the end of the day, while all the food and drinks have been consumed, the music has been played, and the decorations and flowers have been set up and taken down, the only thing we have to reminisce on is the photography and documentation of our special day, and that's why we trusted Carmen to be our wedding photographer and would recommend her a thousand percent to all our friends and family. We are looking forward to creating the photo album with her so that we have something physical to always remind us of our special day!

Wedding Veterans will tell you that your photographer really sets the tone of your wedding. They…read moreare much more than just the person that takes pictures. They take the time to understand who you are as a couple and the story you want to tell and really how you'll look back on your wedding day for years to come. Carmelisse was that and more for us. From the moment we saw her photos from mutuals' weddings we knew we wanted her to shoot our wedding. In our first meeting, it felt like talking to a long-time friend and it was an easy decision for us to put all our trust in her and her team. She was the first person we hired after our wedding planner. We actually contacted her the month after we got engaged in 2021 but her 2023 book wasn't open yet. After conversing via text and email for months, we met her for the first time during our engagement shoot and she captured us and our dogs perfectly (YES, she capture our anxiety-ridden GSD mixes with smiles and they stood still, and the doggos absolutely fell in love with her husband, THANKS REX!!) She helped us pick the area and with putting together comfortable poses. Her turnaround time was so reasonable, the photos are just plain awesome. I have a hard time putting into words how great they are but I literally tear up with happiness every time I look through my album (which I still do ALOT). For the wedding day, Carmelisse and John kept us hyped and on schedule. A lot of things happen on the wedding day and Carmelisse was already ready to help us adjust and adapt. She captured all of our memories so beautifully. I can't stop singing her praises for her work and her as a person. She truly cares and it is seen through her work and her actions on the wedding day. AND Carmelisse is so stinking great - I went through a health scare the morning of my engagement shoot, I was trying to power through because I was afraid of canceling late but all Carmelisse cared about was that I was ok and she immediately rescheduled without additional thought. Carmelisse will be our forever photographer and we want her to shoot all of our future milestones. After our wedding, so many of our friends and family have already added her on Instagram for the future when she can shoot their wedding or life event.

We had an engagement shoot which was a nice "trial" if you will, before our wedding. As most people are, my husband and I were nervous about being awkward or not knowing what to do. Julianne's cues made us feel comfortable and have fun which led to the most beautiful and natural photos. For our actual wedding day, she was really good at listening to the things that were important to me completely- while also adding in her own expertise which created the perfect photo experience. Julianne came early to scan our space to get a feel of the best places to shoot, she was smart, quick and at the same time "out of the way". I feel like I barely saw her throughout the day/evening- but upon return of our photos she was definitely there. She covered so many amazing moments that I wouldn't have gotten to witness without her eye. She's a professional, great communication, on time, honors her words/contracts, and is super pleasant to be around. We hope to work with her again in the future!
