The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted. Alec truly went above and beyond, and we had such a great time working with him. I'm obsessed with the pictures and would give him an 11/10 rating!

Hi, I’m Connie—congratulations on your engagement. Thank you for being here and for considering me as your photographer. I take a thoughtful, hands-on approach and believe the experience matters just as much as the final images. I’m involved well before the wedding day—collaborating on vision, timelines, and details to ensure everything feels intentional and effortless. I love curated Pinterest boards, open communication, and creating imagery that feels elevated, timeless, and personal. This is your day, and it should reflect you. Let’s talk!

I'm Bree - With over fifteen years of experience documenting love stories in Columbus, California & Hawaii as well as International when needed. I believe wedding photography should feel calm and grounding. My approach is guided, not always posed; present, not performative. I step in when needed and step back when moments deserve to breathe. Your wedding day isn’t about perfection — it’s about connection. My role is to preserve the feeling of that day so it can be experienced again for generations to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
This review is a tad late but I got married in November 2024 and booking with Bree Lea Photography was one of the best decisions I made for our wedding day. Bree's communication style is clear, welcoming, understanding, and creative. Her work is meticulous, intentional, high-quality, and priceless. Bree made sure our wedding day felt seamless and not rushed - she even traveled to different locations to photograph our wedding party hours before the ceremony. Bree had continuous communication leading up to our big day and never made us feel stressed. She even helped create our wedding day schedule when we didn't know where to start! She found herself in the city of my wedding while she was on VACATION and told me she scouted it for the best shooting areas...did I mention she was on VACATION? She went above and beyond with amazing communication, stellar photographs, and on top of that she has a kind soul and was an absolute treasure to work with. You would be lucky to book with such a talented, fun, relatable photographer for your big day! I'll def be reaching out to her again for smaller shoots in the future.

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
Isaac’s 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.

Out of all the wedding decisions we had to make, picking them was the easiest and best one. I didn’t have to worry for a single second on the wedding day. They took care of everything so calmly, it actually helped me relax. The photos are breathtaking, they captured my husband’s huge smile when he saw me for the first time. The video literally makes me cry every time I watch it, and my friends say it feels like something from Netflix. They made sure to include all the people that mattered to us, so no one feels left out. I love the small candid ones, like my grandma laughing at the reception. Those are the things you never want to forget. They were more than just photographers, they were like extra support for me that day. I’d choose them again a million times.

We’re Sandra and Nichole – two Gemini sisters ready to document your love story. Our vibe is romantic, modern, and timeless. We're a perfect blend of editorial and documentary. We bring your vision to life on both digital and film.

Awarded Best of Zola
It took me months to come up with the words to describe our experience with the Gemini girls because perfection just didn't seem like enough. From day one these ladies were not only easy to communicate with, but even better, they were so much freaking fun. We never had an encounter that wasn't filled with laughter and genuine friendship. And while they got down to business when they arrived on the day of the wedding, they were still full of energy that every single one of us fed off of. When things started to veer off schedule, they always got things back to running smoothly. And when I panicked because I didn't have my vows for my first look, Nichole calmly reminded me that I was going to see my dad first and didn't need my vows yet (oops, lol). As if having them around on our perfect day wasn't enough itself, they are also incredibly talented, have an amazing eye and provided us with the most stunning pictures that we will cherish forever. If you want top tier photos of your wedding day while working with a team that is fun and down to earth but will work their butts off for you.. these are your girls. Sandra, Nicole and Amanda.. we love you and can't thank you enough.

King is seriously a dream to work with! From the first time we talked, we just knew they were the right choice. He’s so down-to-earth and made us feel totally at ease, which was huge because neither of us are super comfortable in front of a camera. He helped us with posing when we needed it (thank you for making us look like we knew what we were doing!), but also just let us be ourselves, which resulted in the most natural, beautiful photos. He totally captured the vibe of our day, especially the reception. The energy, the laughter, the dancing—everything was perfectly documented. We couldn’t have asked for better photos that really tell the story of our celebration. We’re beyond happy with how everything turned out!

Hello! My name is Bre. I fell in love with capturing love stories a few years ago and I have never looked back. Over the years I have gotten to meet so many amazing couples and help them cherish their wedding day for years to come.

I have known Bre for many years and have had the privilege watching her grow her photography business from scratch. Her photos and editing skills are unmatched. She takes all the awkwardness of being in front of the camera away. She recently shot my wedding photos and was a blast to work with.

Your wedding should be a stress-free and joyous celebration! And to capture all the love and life and happiness, your photographer should be focused on the emotions of the day, not only the pretty centerpieces. At Mischief and Laughs Photography, we believe that the important things aren’t the things at the wedding, but the people – your families, your friends, and most importantly the person you are about to marry. We carry this love for love into every wedding we photograph.

We absolutely loved working with Cara and can’t recommend her enough. From the very beginning, she was flexible, easygoing, and genuinely wonderful to be around. We had a few plan changes along the way, and Cara handled everything with total grace — no stress, no pressure, just support. On the wedding day itself, she went above and beyond to make both of us feel comfortable and special. Neither of us are naturals in front of a camera, but Cara made everything feel relaxed and fun, and it shows in the photos. We felt truly taken care of. One thing that meant a lot to us: during a time when finding vendors for a Jewish wedding can feel a little nerve-wracking, Cara didn’t blink twice. She was completely open, respectful, and excited to be part of our day, which made us feel so at ease and so grateful. And the photos are stunning. She captured the joy, emotion, and energy of the day perfectly — we love them so much. If you want a photographer who is talented, kind, flexible, and deeply invested in her couples, Cara is the one. We’re so thankful we found her. — Molly & Andrew

Hello, I'm Kaley — the founder and lead photographer at KTP for the past seven years. What began as a creative passion has grown into a thriving business, and I’m so grateful for the journey so far. 9 years ago, my deep love for storytelling through photography led me into the wedding industry.

There’s something incredibly moving about witnessing couples exchange vows in meaningful places, surrounded by those they love most. Capturing those genuine, emotional moments is truly what drives me.

From our first interaction, Kaley's communication style was fast, genuine, and friendly - she made us feel at ease right away.

Christy Gibson is a visual storyteller whose work is rooted in emotion, and memories. As an adopted child, Christy grew up questioning her identity, finding solace and meaning in the stories of her family and stories of others. Over time, documenting moments became not just a passion, but an obsession. Her journey took a personal turn when she lost her mother, grandmother, and aunt to the effects of Alzheimer's disease. This loss solidified her commitment to remembering and capturing all of life's magic. Through her work, she seeks to help others preserve their legacies. A true lover of love stories.

From our initial meeting, pre-wedding meeting and all the emails in between, Christy was professional and clear, which set me at ease. I was able to give her my direction and she made me feel confident that she had the vision and would execute what we needed for our photography. I felt so comfortable to share with her about my worries and she was able to help us on the wedding day stay on time and flexible when we wanted to add a few things.

From the moment we reached out to her to getting our pictures, she has been incredibly communicative, easy to work with, and deeply kind.
