Tessa Tadlock is the most amazing wedding photographer we could have asked for. From our very first interaction, her communication style was responsive, personable, and positive. She was fully engaged throughout the entire process, providing constant encouragement and direction to ensure we got the best possible shots. The quality of Tessa's work is nothing short of perfection - her attention to detail is unparalleled, and the final photos are beyond dreamy and absolutely timeless. When we received the photos from our wedding day, I was in tears - I was obsessed with every single image.

  • Serves San Luis Obispo, CA

I am a luxury portrait and wedding photographer on the beautiful Central Coast (with a stint spent in the Midwest). I discovered my love for photography while at Allan Hancock College and have spent the last 4 years learning, growing, and perfecting my style and flow. I took a few years to travel around and find where I wanted to end up, and, of course, after spending a few years in the Midwest with my husband, my inspiring home called me back, and we, and our little boy, Stetson, now live in Nipomo, CA. We spend our free time walking on the beach and mountain biking.

We had the best experience with Isabella. She was so patient with my littles during their session. Their photos came out so cute! We will definitely do another session with her.

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.

I'm Katherine, a wedding photographer based in Oakland, CA. With over a decade of experience and features in Vogue, Brides, The New York Times, and more, I know how to create wedding photos that don’t just look stunning — they feel like you. No trendy filters, no forced poses, just authentic moments that reflect who you are. I believe the best moments aren’t staged. They unfold naturally, in the quiet glances, the belly laughs, and those unspoken connections shared with your loved ones. My goal is to capture those raw, in-between moments that truly make your wedding day yours!

Katherine was amazing to work with! She shot both our engagement and city hall photos and we could not have asked for a better partner.

  • Serves San Luis Obispo, CA

Hi, I'm Danny! My passion is to capture couples & their love story in a timeless way. I like to describe my style as a fusion between story-telling & editorial. I lean into true-to-life colors with a warm ambience and posing that's timeless but also interwoven with an editorial flare that's unique, artistic, and stylish. I also love incorporating story-telling stills that involve movement rather than a bunch of photos that feel "stiff" or overly posed. Story-telling moments bring wedding galleries life! I’d love the opportunity to connect with you, and hear more about your wedding vision!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m so glad we hired Danny as our wedding photographer! We had the special opportunity to work with Danny and his wife as our second shooter, who are both the most down to earth people ever. Communication with him was always on point, he let us know exactly what to expect and made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera on our actual wedding day which was huge because I always tend to be awkward in front of one. When we received our photos back our jaws were on the floor. They were able to capture exactly what we were looking for, photos that were timeless and elegant while also capturing the perfect candids that just made our photos even more special. We asked Danny beforehand that he not only capture us but all of our amazing friends and family who were with us on our day and he absolutely delivered. Looking through our gallery made us feel like we were reliving our wedding all over again, from the laughs, to the tears, and more. We will truly cherish these pictures forever!

Awarded Best of Zola
Carly and Elliot from A Nomadic Love are truly one of a kind. They photographed one of our best friend’s weddings in 2019, another in 2023, and then ours in 2025, and we honestly couldn’t fathom having anyone else capture these moments. Their photos are truly unmatched. A Nomadic Love was the very first vendor I booked, long before I knew anything else about our wedding, because they were my one and only non-negotiable! Their style and editing speak for themselves, but what makes them even more special is who they are as people. They are so much fun to be around, they instantly make you feel comfortable, and seamlessly guiding you through each shot. They make everything so much fun, that you don't even really notice you are being photographed. Every experience I’ve had with them has been exceptional. Our wedding photos are beyond what we could have imagined, and we are still trying to narrow down which ones to print because every single one is that good. We’ve gotten endless compliments from family, friends, and are so happy with how our special day was documented through photo. Carly and Elliot are unlike any other, and we could not recommend them more

Isabelle is great! I was searching specifically for a wedding photographer that was more than just a "point and shoot." I wanted someone with an artistic eye, who knew how to play off lighting and angles and capture those candid moments. She did all of that. She did some of the traditional portraits we knew our families wanted while also capturing SO MANY extra candid shots that I really wanted. She was professional and did exactly what she was contracted to do. The second shooter she hired was also wonderful and did a great job getting additional coverage. Would hire her again in a second.

Ok so I finally have a moment to sit down and write a review. I don’t even know where to begin. Sarah is amazing. My wedding was messy, flawed and chaotic… especially for a small wedding. But Sarah captured the moments of the stillness. I look at the photos every day, not even joking. Not only are the photos absolutely breathtaking, there are SOO many. I loved that Sarah shared some details about herself. It made the experience fun and natural. Im super awkward when getting pictures taken but Sarah made it super comfortable. I wish she lived closer because I would use her for all my photos for the future

Kin Photography was truly the perfect choice for our wedding, and we feel so grateful to have had them capture our day. From the very beginning, their communication style stood out—they were warm, welcoming, and incredibly responsive. Every question we had was answered with patience and clarity, and they made us feel completely at ease throughout the planning process. It felt less like working with a vendor and more like working with a trusted friend who genuinely cared about our experience. On the wedding day, Kin Photography exceeded every expectation. The quality of their work was simply breathtaking—every photo was beautifully composed, with flattering angles that highlighted not just how we looked, but how we felt. They managed to capture the joy, laughter, and emotion of the day in a way that still moves us when we look back at the images. What amazed us most was how they seemed to be everywhere at once, catching every little detail and candid moment without ever feeling intrusive. They went above and beyond in so many ways, even staying later than scheduled to ensure they didn’t miss a single shot. That kind of dedication speaks volumes about their professionalism and passion for what they do. From intimate portraits of us as a couple to heartfelt photos of our family and friends, Kin Photography gave us a collection of memories that we’ll treasure forever. Beyond the photos themselves, they made the entire process comfortable and fun. We never felt awkward in front of the camera—in fact, they made us feel beautiful and confident, which is such a gift on a day when emotions are running high. And then, as if all of that weren’t enough, we were surprised with a custom USB drive containing our photos. It was such a thoughtful and unexpected touch, and it made receiving our images feel even more special. Looking back, we can honestly say that Kin Photography contributed so much to making our wedding day unforgettable. Their talent, kindness, and genuine care shone through in every interaction and every photo. We couldn’t recommend them more highly to any couple searching for a photographer who will not only deliver stunning images but also make the entire experience joyful and seamless.

Hi! My name is Bailey and I am the owner of Baileaves Photography. I am a travel and destination wedding photographer based in Portland, Oregon. I travel all over the world to create timeless cinematic images of couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
My fiancé and I are getting married in May 2026 and are both pretty camera shy. We knew we wanted to get professional engagement and wedding photos done, but were nervous they would feel inauthentic. When we found Bailey’s page we were so excited about how she captured genuine joy from her couples in some of our favorite natural wonders in Oregon, which put us at ease going into our first conversation with her. Right out of the gate Bailey was incredible helping us feel comfortable with her, giving us resources to help guide our location outfit choices, and making us feel confident that we weren’t going to regret this decision. On the day of our engagement shoot, Bailey showed up at sunrise with us on the Oregon coast and ran around the beach for over 3 hours with us because the lighting kept shifting in such incredible ways through the clouds. Not only that, but she went above and beyond wrangling our dogs while we got some couple shots followed by some with the pups in some truly special family shots we will certainly be hanging up in the house. We had the best time with Bailey and the engagement photos she delivered were beyond anything we could have imagined. The way she captures the little smiles and moments between loved ones is unmatched, and her attention to lighting nuance and details of the natural area you’re in make her photos that much more special. We ended up using some of her photos for our invites and website, but are most excited to frame some for the house to remember forever. We can’t wait to have her as our wedding photographer and couldn’t recommend her enough for anyone looking!

The thing I hear most from my couples? “You made us feel so comfortable.” Most people don’t love being in front of the camera (totally normal), but that’s where I come in—to help you feel like the best version of yourself while making memories you’ll actually want to hang on your walls. Your wedding photographer is with you through the quiet moments and the chaos, so it matters who you have by your side. With me, you get someone who knows how to read the room, roll with whatever the day brings, and add calm, joy, and confidence to it all.

Working with Jenn Patterson was an absolute joy! I truly appreciate vendors who communicate clearly and go above and beyond — and Jenn does exactly that. From start to finish, she brought such professionalism, creativity, and heart to our wedding at The Corson Building. Jenn has a gift for finding beauty in the smallest details. She took the most subtle elements of our day and made them feel magnificent and deeply significant. The flatlay she created was stunning — a rich, thoughtful collection of pieces she curated and styled with such intention. She arrived early to ensure nothing felt rushed, and throughout the day we had so much fun anticipating moments together — seamlessly aligning to capture them with ease and precision. Her calm energy and artistic eye made the entire experience effortless and memorable. I can’t recommend Jenn enough. She doesn’t just take photos — she tells a story, one filled with emotion, beauty, and meaning.

Daria Orlova Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first connected, Daria and Connor were efficient, unflapped, and good-humored in their communication, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. Their work has an Old Hollywood style that is both classic and romantic, perfectly capturing the authentic joy and love of our special day. Daria and Connor truly were MVPs, arriving exactly on time with multiple cameras and a keen eye for finding the best backdrops, posing, and props to make us and our guests look and feel our absolute best. We couldn't be happier with the memories they've helped us preserve from our wedding day. We were blown away by the 48-hour turnaround for the preview photos. Just take a look, the work speaks for itself!
