Hi, I'm Lu. Weddings are more than just events — they’re a collection of fleeting, beautiful moments that deserve to be remembered just as they felt. From the quiet anticipation before the ceremony to the joy on the dance floor, my goal is to capture the raw emotion, the small in-between glances, and all the laughter and happy tears that make your day uniquely yours. Every couple’s journey is different, and it’s a privilege to be trusted with telling yours. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, I’m here to ensure your wedding gallery feels as real and unforgettable as the day itself.

Lauren is a dream. Not only does she know exactly what angles that make you feel most beautiful but she puts you in such a comfortable setting that you feel safe with her and so confident. I’ve worked with Lauren four times and it has always been a pleasure. She has an eye for amazing photos and I love every image that she has captured of me. Do not hesitate on booking with Lauren as she is a true professional who will capture your dreams! I adore you, Lauren, thank you for everything!

My favorite part about what I do is working with all of the great couples I get to meet. I love getting to know my clients and discovering what is most important to them about their wedding day. Each and every wedding is different and each deserves a unique approach to capture thoughtfully. It is exciting that I get to see into so many different little worlds every day. My motto is to do everything in love, and I feel like that is reflected in my work and attention to detail. Also, its great getting to be around happy people all day!

On your wedding day things go by so quickly and it can be difficult to think back on specific moments or individual details. So, I can't overstress the importance of getting great photos that capture things as they were, rather than just an exciting blur of color and familiar happy faces that your memory will likely be left with. Keeping that in mind, the photographer you choose and trust with such an integral part of your wedding day has to be someone you have full confidence in and, wholeheartedly, I can say that Kiernan meets and exceeds all the expectations of what makes an incredible wedding photographer. She was able to make my (now) husband and I feel relaxed, while also offering VERY helpful and necessary directions of how to pose (down to the way to tilt our head, where to look, where our hands should be, etc) and that was so appreciated! It made me feel so much more confident to know that if something needed to be changed or corrected in order to get the best photo possible, she would notice it and then she’d let us know what we need to do to get that shot. Then, after the wedding, when my husband and I received our sneak peek photos, (which were sent so quickly that we got them while we were still in our post-wedding hotel suite) and we were blown away by how beautiful they turned out. There were so many amazing shots that I loved, I couldn’t pick a favorite... I had at least 10-15 top favorites. To wrap it up, Kiernan is an insanely talented photographer, a true professional and just an overall sweet, lovely person. If you are getting married soon and are looking for a photographer that will be able to deliver photos you will cherish forever AND who will make you feel comfortable and confident while the photos are being taken... I highly recommend Kiernan Michelle Photography, as I sincerely believe she is the best you will find... I know she was for me!

We are Dustin and Courtney, best friends and photographers. Before we shot weddings together we were a bride and groom. Yep, dated and married in less than a year! We just knew we wanted to do life together. As time has gone by we learned much more important things about each other. For example, Dustin’s heart can easily be won over with a hot cup of coffee, surfing, chasing our kids and any action movie. Courtney's perfect day includes drinking a chai latte, going for a hike with the family and shopping.

Dustin and his team were truly a delight to work with for my wedding! He is so kind, creative, attentive, profressional, positive, energetic and makes you feel at ease during your event. My husband does not like to take photos and he had nothing but great things to say about Dustin. And the pictures of course were amazing! Do not hesitate to book Dustin for your next event, you won't regret it!

From making music videos for pop stars, to lighting models on fashion magazine shoots, my career has given me a variety of experiences and growth. My approach to photography is a blend of capturing photojournalistic candid moments and editorial portraits with thoughtful details, and beautiful light. I've always been a bit rebellious, a bit poetic, and I always knew I wanted to be a photographer, creatively telling stories like yours.

From start to finish, Danyell Ellis justified our confidence in her by maintaining a professional, precise and flexible approach. Her skilled, technical and thoughtful work captured all the special moments of our wedding day. Danyell had completed our family formals in record time, and thoroughly examined the venue to maximize the potential for beautiful and thoughtful photos. We are so grateful for her artistic eye and technical abilities, which allowed her to fulfill our vision perfectly. I cannot recommend Danyell Ellis Photography enough for your special day.

Jesi B Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Thousand Oaks, CA

With over fourteen years of Art, Design and Photography experience, I pride myself in treating Photography as not just a profession, but a passion. To me photography is a way of life, an addiction and a creative outlet. I consider myself to be an artist and photography is my chosen medium. I am a wife and mother of 2 very busy teenagers. I am also a world traveler and scuba diver, who loves animals, being in nature and finding the beauty in the little things.

If you’re looking for a sign to hire Jesi as your wedding photographer, this is it. She is that good. From the very beginning of wedding planning to the final gallery delivery, Jesi was nothing short of incredible. Her work is everything I dreamed of moody, timeless, dramatic, and beautifully editorial. The photos we received are absolutely insanely stunning and truly everything I had envisioned. I still can’t stop looking at them! Jesi did more than just show up and take pictures. She became a mini wedding planner, a guide, and honestly a friend throughout the entire process. She checked in on me via FaceTime, shared advice and vendor recommendations, sent helpful links (everything from vintage rental cars to groom accessories), and provided super helpful wedding and rehearsal checklists. She also sent over a detailed questionnaire to make sure she fully understood our vision, shot list, and timeline. Her thoughtfulness and experience took so much stress off my plate. On the wedding day, Jesi exceeded every expectation. She arrived extra early (which any bride knows is a MAJOR relief) and once it was time for photos, she made us feel confident and comfortable. My husband and I are not natural posers, but she guided us with ease hyping us up, giving clear direction, and reminding us how amazing everything looked. She even showed us sneak peeks throughout the day, which was so fun and reassuring. The morning of the wedding she also sent a sweet message that instantly calmed my nerves. It was such a small gesture but meant the world to me. And the best part? The sneak peek gallery she delivered afterward wasn’t just a handful of photos, it was a huge selection, and every single shot was gorgeous. I don’t know how she does it, but she gets so many photos and somehow they’re all incredible. I truly cannot recommend Jesi enough. She is talented, thoughtful, professional, creative, and genuinely invested in her couples. She was everything I wanted in a photographer and so much more. If you’re considering booking her, don’t hesitate, just do it. You’ll be so grateful you did!

  • Serves Thousand Oaks, CA

From the moment I photographed my first wedding, I knew that I was exactly where I should be. This small business has evolved into a passion for weddings, couples, lifestyle sessions, and more. I fell in love with photography in high school, graduated college, and now pursuing my goal of capturing all the in-between moments of laughter, smiles, tears, and all. I became addicted to all the small moments and meeting wonderful couples. I believe in capturing your vision for your special day. I can't wait to meet you.

From the moment we first spoke with Janely, we knew we had found our wedding photographer. She has a very interactive pre-book process. Her communication style was prompt, professional, and kind, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of her work is truly unique, with a dreamy, intentional, and romantic style that captured the essence of our special day. Janely went above and beyond, meeting with me beforehand to ease my stress, and being so kind and patient with the children in the family, even attempting to borrowing Cheerios from a grumpy 3-year-old! We are thrilled to receive the final photos and can't wait to work with Janely again for future milestones.

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

We absolutely love working with Randall! He has been our go-to family photographer for years, capturing everything from my sisters' and cousins' special moments to my graduation and most recently, my wedding. Randall is incredibly easy to get along with, always professional, and super responsive. I never had to worry about a thing, he came fully prepared for our big day and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. He has a great way of making everyone feel comfortable, which really shows in the beautiful photos he takes. We will continue to hire and recommend Randall every chance we get. He’s awesome, and I 100% recommend him to anyone looking for stunning, heartfelt photography!

We wanted a wedding that felt like a fairytale, full of magic moments. But we were unsure if we could find someone who could capture that on photo and video. Aladdin Films made it real for us. They got all the nice details, like the soft lights in the evening and the joyful laughter outside. Everything that made our day special, from the flowers in the center of the aisle at the ceremony, to the smiles of my parents during my brother's speech. They've captured them all. When I showed the video to my parents and friends, my parents cried, my friends cried, I cried, because of how incredible the video captured our special day. It felt like all that happened moments ago, and I'm sure it will give the same feeling for years to come! ;) Aladdin Films turned our wedding into a lovely fairytale!

Working with Ashley was such a dream! Her attention to detail and vibes are amazing. We felt a little bit awkward during our engagement photo shoot just because we had not taken professional photos together before and Ashley was able to break the ice and keep us giggling the whole time. Do not question any of the silly things she has you do because your photos will be that much better for it. We would love to work with Ashley again in the future & cannot wait to display her work around our house!

My goal is to deliver timeless photos that let you step right back into how your wedding day felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hire Lo. You won't regret it. Not only does she know what she is doing in terms of getting all the planned shots, she got incredible candid shots and live shots of my groom and I, our families, and our guests. As we've been looking back so far at our pictures, we get to relive the emotion of the day. It's the intangible thing that an incredible photographer can do--capture the emotion. I can feel our joy radiating out of our photos and I am so grateful I hired Lo. Years from now we are going to get to experience this day over-and-over because the quality of her photos is incredible. The variety of shots she was able to get makes it seem like she had second shooter (but she's just that good). Our first look was perfect. She made sure we got some golden hour shots and then got us right back to dinner so we could eat. She also is incredible at giving minor adjustment tips to make sure we weren't doing anything weird with our hands lol. Additionally, and this was big for me, working with her ahead of the wedding she reminded me how to be excited for this day. Wedding planning was stressful, but every time I got to talk to Lo she got me back to a place of being excited and joyful. The day-of when she showed up, she helped make sure we had everything covered, and kept me calm even when some things went wrong. I felt like I not only had a great photographer, but a friend who had my back and wanted to make sure my day went perfect. I am so glad we hired Lo. My groom teared up looking back at some of these photos. Hire Lo!
