Long after the flowers have faded and the cake is gone, Alexa's photographs are what remain…read more There is a thoughtful, deliberate quality to the way Alexa approaches every wedding day. She has a remarkable eye for finding the softest light in a getting-ready room and quietly capturing the moments that often go unnoticed. While our team is busy with hair and makeup, Alexa preserves the true beauty, laughter between friends, the proud smile of a mother, and the quiet anticipation before a bride walks down the aisle. Nothing feels forced. She simply lets the day unfold. Just as wonderful is the experience of working alongside her. She's kind, thoughtful, and collaborative, making every transition feel seamless for both the couple and the vendor team. I would happily recommend her to any couple.

Alexa is the absolute BEST…read more I had originally booked her for last year, but due to some unfortunate circumstances had to cancel/postpone very last minute. She was so patient with us until we were ready again and fast forward to now! We had our elopement in Long Beach and she came out to snap some pics for us before the ceremony and also of the family after. She's sooo personable and made it feel like a group of friends running around town casually snapping pics! Her directions were great and definitely helped us loosen up. The raw images looked GREAT already, but the edited versions are even better. My in laws were so excited about the photos that they asked if they're ready just two days after. We got our album and through the roof with how everything came out. Alexa truly makes magic happen.

The booking process was super simple, the session itself was easy and seamless, and she even got the photos back to us sooner than expected. My hubby and I aren't big fans of being in front of the camera, but Kelsey made us feel very at ease. She was also able handle our two girls (ages 6 and 3), who can be quite the handful. They quickly warmed up to Kelsey and she was able to get such nice candid and genuine smiles from them, which is quite the struggle most of the time. The girls had such a fun time, they're asking when the next photoshoot is going to be! Our session was right at sunset, which I think is a wonderful time to take photos. The location she chose was nice and secluded, with easy and plentiful parking. 15 minutes seems like it wouldn't be enough time to take many photos, but she was able to capture quite a lot for us, and it didn't feel rushed at all. We are extremely happy with the gallery Kelsey captured for us, will definitely keep her in mind for any future photography needs and won't hesitate to recommend her to our friends and family! Kelsey, we can't thank you enough! We absolutely LOVE all the photos!!!

I absolutely love our newborn photos taken by Kelsey! I chose Kelsey as our newborn photographer…read morebecause I liked her work with the natural lighting / poses, she offered the option to come to our home and our dog was able to join us in the photos. I appreciate how her packages INCLUDING prices are listed on her website as opposed to the websites who require you to contact them for pricing. Kelsey was great at communicating via email and text message. She arrived right on time! Our dog was not very fond of the stranger in our home and our baby was still awake but Kelsey was so patient and everything ended up working out. With a newborn, our house was a hot mess but only parts of our room and nursery would be needed to be "clean" for the photos. Kelsey had some swaddle blankets on hand which I opted for since it was more decorative than the ones I had. She posed us in various ways and asked us if we wanted any particular shots. Kelsey made us feel comfortable which shows in our photos. Our photos arrived via email in the time frame given and I'm obsessed! Thank you for a great experience and our memorable family photos!

We follow their instagram for updates on available sessions and new locations :) Both Connor and Brittany have excellent communication! They always reach out with detailed emails and texts of expectations, weather changes/updates, and important info for our shoots. They're responsive, clear, and make the whole process seamless. From start to finish, everything felt easy, relaxed, and enjoyable. Brittany has a natural way of making us comfortable during the shoot and provides great feedback. They offer a great selection of outdoor locations with beautiful backgrounds and lighting! Another thing we really appreciated was how quickly the photos were delivered each time. We received a link to a photo gallery, and got to choose our favorites from those. The turnaround time was just a few days! We're so grateful for their talent and professionalism, and we would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for stunning, heartfelt photos!

Cristen is an incredible photographer who makes the entire experience fun, comfortable, and empowering. From the moment the session starts, she guides you through every pose and gives clear direction, so you never have to worry about what to do. Her warm, friendly personality makes it feel like you're spending time with a longtime friend rather than being in front of a camera. What stood out most was how engaged and supportive she was throughout the entire shoot.

Kazuya was fantastic and I would highly recommend him!…read more Our family took an end-of-summer trip to Laguna Beach and decided last minute to take family pictures while in town. When we reached out for a photographer on Yelp, Kazuya was immediately responsive, available to schedule us on only a few days' notice, and picked a beautiful location. Even though the location was crowded with other people taking pictures (at least 5 other photographers), you wouldn't know it based on how the photos came out. The photos honestly make it look like we were the only people on the beach. In just an hour we had more than enough photos. The quality of his equipment and the photos themselves were fantastic. The photo experience itself was top notch. Kazuya was personable, funny, and my young kids found him to be very friendly. He even gave us a parking recommendation. Kazuya was very reasonably and fairly priced. We were so impressed with how quickly he finished the touch-up on all of our photos. And the download from WeTransfer was seamless. Thank you Kazuya for a wonderful experience! My wife and I highly recommend if you're in need of photography in Orange County.

I chose Bethany because her work stood out with the way she beautifully captures candid emotion, especially those subtle, raw moments of motherhood. For my son's 1 year milestone session, I didn't feel like I had to perform or pose. I just spent time loving on my little guy, and Bethany did her magic. She caught the sweetest, most natural moments between us, photos that truly reflect the love I feel for him. The images are full of heart and detail, with unique perspectives that I'll cherish forever. I'm so grateful for her eye, her calming presence, and how effortlessly she preserved such a special time in our lives.

Not only is she incredibly talented behind the camera, but she's also kind, patient, and truly thoughtful. She works wonderfully with kids, and goes the extra mile--like choosing a location that's accessible for my dad, who has difficulty walking far. Bethany has been capturing our family memories for about five years now, and every session is a joy. What used to be a dreaded task for my husband has turned into something he actually enjoys because with Bethany, it doesn't feel like a photo shoot. It feels like a fun day out, and somehow, she still manages to get the most stunning, natural photos, especially during golden hour. Her rates are reasonable, turnaround time is solid, and communication is always smooth. I couldn't recommend her more highly.
