Hello! My name's Skyler and I've been photographing weddings since 2018!

Moody Moon was my first choice for photography after seeing some of her previous weddings. She was amazing to work with and so thorough from booking, to engagement shoot, to wedding day! Even with the usual wedding day hiccups — Moody stayed on top of things and she her second shooter for the day were fun and professional through it all! I wish I could live my wedding day over 100x and I’d choose her to be there for all of them. She captured the most beautiful moments for us so I can do the next best thing to reliving it.

  • Serves Independence, LA

I've been shooting weddings for almost 10 years now and love every single one. The love, the joining of 2 people, and the fun of having everyone together. I strive to have every single important moment captured to remember for a lifetime.

Awarded Best of Zola
We knew from the start that our wedding would be a small, intimate affair, and we wanted a photographer who could capture the special moments without being intrusive. Sidney was absolutely perfect! Communication was a breeze. Sidney was always responsive, and they took the time to understand our vision for the day. He arrived early arrived and with an assistant and both blended seamlessly into the background. They captured candid moments of our family and friends, as well as some beautiful posed portraits. We received the sneek peak very quickly and the only "hard part" is picking from all the many photos to move on to the final gallery!
