Bonphotage Fine Art Photography 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Pasadena, CA

We never take lightly the incredibly humbling role which our clients entrust us to. It is our job to not only document once-in-a-lifetime moments and emotions but to do so in an artful, romantic and documentary manner. We are passionate about storytelling through images that elicit an emotional response, using both film and digital mediums. Our style is unobtrusive which allows us to capture fleeting moments of joy, love, and tenderness with intentionality.

“WOW. Just WOW!! I honestly can't say enough good things about Lynzie and her team at Bonphotage. Booking Bonphotage was easily the best decision we made for our wedding and I truly could not imagine my wedding without them. From the first phone call with Lynzie, I felt completely at ease - her professionalism, knowledge and enthusiasm left us feeling that choosing Bonphotage for our wedding photography and videography team was a no-brainer. Leading up to the wedding, Lynzie and her team were responsive and detailed. They were instrumental in making sure our timeline was carefully tailored to ensure we received every image we desired while never feeling rushed or unnatural - and that is how we could best describe our whole experience with Bonphotage - ABOVE AND BEYOND! During the wedding day, the Bonphotage team struck the perfect balance between making sure we looked flawless by offering advice on poses, while still making us feel completely candid and natural! Our family and guests commented many times that they barely even noticed that our pictures and videos were being taken all night long! Lynzie, in particular, was meticulous, with razor-sharp senses anticipating every moment and emotion so carefully. The photography and videography team worked together seamlessly in a cohesive and planned manner. Truly a DREAM TEAM! But the BEST PART?! - the pictures were absolutely BREATHTAKING!! STUNNING!! and FAST! We got our entire wedding gallery in two weeks! We knew Lynzie and her team were incredible from looking at their portfolio online and following (ok - stalking!) their instagram for years - but the photos surpassed our already very high expectations in literally every way!! We couldn’t be happier. We will cherish these images for the rest of our life!! Do yourself a favor and hire Bonphotage!!”

I'm a California native with a wanderlusting soul.

Grace Kathryn Photography was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. From our phone consult, her communication style was funny, laidback, and honest, which immediately put us at ease. The quality of her work was amazing - they captured all the fun and special moments of our day in a way that was both creative and helpful. She was incredibly flexible, accommodating our wedding only being a week away, and providing a quick turnaround on our photos so we could relive the day. If you have seen Friends, I am like Chandler when taking photos, but Grace made an easy process, haha. We would highly recommend Grace Kathryn Photography to any couple looking for a talented, personable photographer who will make your wedding day that much more enjoyable.

Bedrosian Photo 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Pasadena, CA

I was born in Beirut, raised in an Armenian home where Greek disco and Arabic music played nonstop thanks to my mom. That early blend of cultures shaped my love for exploring the world—I’ve traveled to over 20 countries so far, always drawn to new places, people, and perspectives. Photography became my way of connecting. It lets me dive into different cultures, capture honest moments, and hear stories that stay with me. Becoming a photographer helps fulfill that need to explore, to listen, and to create something meaningful. I treat every event like I’m photographing for family—because the connection always matters.

Awarded Best of Zola
Peter and his team at Bedrosian Photo did an incredible job capturing our wedding day. My husband and I usually feel awkward in front of the camera, but Peter made us feel completely at ease during the posed shots—and he also captured some truly beautiful candid moments of us and our guests. The quality of the photos and video was outstanding. The colors were vibrant and natural, and the video was edited perfectly. Peter mentioned that he spends about a week selecting color tones that match the couple and the venue, and it really shows in the final result. His communication with his team was seamless, and he treated our wedding with so much care and intention—it never felt like just another job to him. We're forever grateful to Bedrosian Photo for preserving our day so beautifully.

Stephen Tang Photo

Pasadena, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,100

While some photographers emphasize their gear or trendy post-processing, I take pride in subject-photographer interaction - the relation I build with clients, picking up on nuances in pose and expression while we shoot, anticipating the viewers' response - because ultimately, that's how photographs that matter to us are created. I'm a native New Yorker who found myself relocating to Los Angeles and making it my home. Wherever you'd like to have your wedding, it would be my pleasure to be your photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
Stephen is an amazing photographer to work with! From the moment we connected to learn more about his style and craft, we knew he'd be the one to photograph our Golden Age of Hollywood'esque wedding. As we viewed his portfolio, we were immediately drawn to his use of shadows and emboldened colors. He works with so much precision and professionalism from the beginning by asking questions to ensure he knows what you want. For our engagement photos, we wanted portraits that defied the traditional beach settings. Stephen worked with us in capturing Old Hollywood glamour shots that eventually made perfect save-the-dates. He was so meticulous in his planning and execution during our engagement photoshoot that the outcomes exceeded what we'd originally imagined. Our wedding pictures came out fantastic! Stephen made sure to capture items and moments throughout our day that define us. We married at the Cicada Club which lacks natural lighting, so Stephen explored the venue beforehand to know how to set-up the lighting for the wedding. Stephen (and his amazing colleague) not only captured our wedding but also the beauty of the venue. The best moments of our wedding were recorded with so much elegance and care. We can't stress how many compliments we continue to receive from family and friends who reminisce or peruse through our social media posts with pictures. We highly recommend Stephen to anyone looking for elegant results without the exorbitant price tag that others may come with. He was a gem to work with and look forward to hiring him for future events! (As should you!) J&J

Joey is such an incredible photographer, and we feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to work with him! From the very beginning, he included us in the brainstorming and design process to make sure he captured the moments that were important to us throughout our wedding day. He was always very prompt and professional, quickly responding to emails and messages. On our wedding day itself, he did such an incredible job floating throughout the wedding and reception, capturing so many different moments while seamlessly being part of the celebration and party. When we reviewed the photos afterwards, we were blown away by how even in every photograph, he was able to capture so much of the magic and joy of the day itself! His editing was top notch, and he did an excellent job augmentingthe beauty of each moment. Every photo was incredibly evocative, and looking through his photos now brings us back to that special day.

Alex Austin Photo

Pasadena, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,200

I'm a portrait photographer capturing love & beauty in sunny southern California & beyond. I believe being able to freeze a moment in time to look back on and cherish again is such a beautiful gift. As a kid, my family would host gatherings at home often, and I would pause and blink my eyes really hard trying to take a “photo” in my mind during the fun. Haha :) I never wanted the time spent with loved ones to end. In college, when I tried searching for what I wanted to study and become, I was reminded of those memories - the things that brought great elation, the things that felt like home. I want to capture moments like that for you, too.

We had a fantastic time with Alex. This was our family's first photo shoot and Alex went above and beyond, helping us feel comfortable and have fun while getting our pictures taken. I was especially thankful for how thoughtful she was in finding ways to keep our toddler entertained and engaged during our photo session. I would highly recommend her for any photo needs. Can't wait to book with her again! -SF

The Hendrys 

5.0

Pasadena, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,700

We're Sarah and Darren—nice to meet you! We are LA transplants originally from Scotland and we're been in the wedding photography game for a while (almost 14 years to be exact!). We are not your typical cookie cutter wedding photographers, that is for certain! We go against the usual grain, and that’s exactly how we like it to roll. Normal is boring. Well, for us, at least.

We're actually rating The Hendrys one trillion stars out of five because they are "out of this world" amazing photographers and you should stop reading this review and book them ASAP! If you're still reading though, let us break down our perfect experience with them: They were recommended to us by our venue (Valentine DTLA) and we fell in LOVE with them as soon as we saw their website! Their portfolio and "about me" won us over because we were looking for wedding photographers who could capture the in-between moments, do some fun stylized shots, and be just as fun and goofy as we are! We reached out over the website and heard back from them immediately over email. Their super funny, yet professional personality came through and that got us so excited to work with them! They were also open to us asking as many questions as we wanted (especially when it came to the contract), which made us feel even more comfortable! We then got to meet them over ZOOM where we broke down how the day would go, they asked us what kind of pictures we were looking for, and we just got to know each other. We honestly may have become best friends with them as we couldn't stop talking to them about everything and anything for 2 hours. After that, we knew we were gonna be in the best hands, but we could never have ever imagined how perfect they really would be! When it finally came to the wedding day, The Hendrys went above and beyond! They were extremely professional as they kept us on schedule while experimenting with different types of photos (using a Fish Eye Lens, prisms, neon lights, etc.). They knew how to make everything feel super relaxed and fun and just let us do whatever was natural to us no matter what kind of photo it was. While we were losing it over the fact we just got married, The Hendrys just let us take everything in while politely directing us for photos. When we weren't doing staged photos, they were out of sight, but taking stunning photographs of everything that was happening in between. They were like ninjas as they would disappear and then reappear and grab us for the next shoot! It really was so cool! A few weeks after the wedding, we received our photos in record time and they were the COOLEST PHOTOS EVER (which you can see attached to this review)! We cannot thank The Hendrys enough for their hilarious stories, non-stop professionalism, unwavering kindness & selflessness, and being true magicians with their cameras and artistic vision. We couldn't be more grateful for everything that they did and we feel like the luckiest married couple in the world thanks to them! Now quit reading this review and go be the next luckiest married couple in the world and book The Hendrys! They're worth every single penny! - The D'Elia's

  • Serves Pasadena, CA

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.

Our experience with Xenia and Mark (videographer) was truly amazing. Xenia is truly a dedicated professional and her camera work is truly phenomenal. We booked Xenia for both our engagement and wedding photos and she completely exceeded my expectations! We originally booked Xenia and Mark for our wedding in May but unfortunately our wedding venue closed last minute and we were left to scramble in finding a new venue and once we did Xenia was so accommodating and made the new wedding date work. Xenia and Mark are super easy to work with; truly genuine individuals! I scoured through hundreds of photographers before I came across Xenia and honestly, none of them compared to her work and eye for photography. Stop your search and book her; I promise you won't regret it. Thank you, Xenia and Mark!

Awarded Best of Zola
We found Lulan Studios about nine months before our wedding day. We were immediately drawn in by their professionalism and their reputation. Lulan is an inclusive photographer who was very receptive to our wedding vision. He and his team were incredibly kind, supportive, and helpful all throughout the process. We elected to go with Lulan Wang himself for our photographer who worked with an associate. After our initial consultation we were turned over to Shannon who was our go to contact for day to day clarifications and vendor contact until Lulan took over just before the wedding. Shannon was immensely resourceful and responsive. She communicated with our coordinator very efficiently and was always on top of our booking. We are very grateful to her as well for making the process so easy and for continuing that communication after the fact. On the day, Lulan and his associate were spectacular. It was clear his associate had more than enough talent for the job just like Lulan, but they divided and concurred by using two different types of cameras for different types of shots. We regret not doing an engagement session with them, but we will likely return for an Anniversary session in the future. We didn’t even need one though, because he is skilled enough that he understood us as a couple immediately. They made us feel comfortable and confident. They hyped us up and moved through the shot list masterfully. Nothing was missed and we captured far more than we expected. Please look through our attached photos as they speak for themselves. One of the most exciting moments was when Lulan handed us a little blue book filled with about fifteen physically printed preview photos DURING THE RECEPTION. A lovely surprise that absolutely shocked me. Turnover was 4-6 weeks and we got ours just before the six week mark right on schedule. We were floored. They are jaw-dropping. We ultimately got 950 photos permanently digitally available for high resolution download and access to a shop with impressive options for prints and albums of a wide array of types and sizes. I’m thrilled to show them to you here and implore you to consider booking Lulan Studios. We trusted in their ability from the beginning and we were not disappointed. They are among if not the absolute best in the business.

I asked my friend to refer me to Carmelisse after I saw the wonderful work she did for their wedding and photo album. From our first email exchange to the day of the wedding, Carmelisse has been nothing short of astounding to work with and her talent is truly spectacular - especially when the pictures are blown up big on our heirloom photo album, that's when you really start noticing and appreciating all the fine details that she was able to capture on your big day. In addition to her professionalism, Carmelisse was also so accommodating and maintained a safe, comfortable space for my partner and I to work through the awkwardness of photoshoots. I really can't recommend this girl enough!

We loved working with Murtaza and the MKEShoots team for our 6-event Indian wedding, plus engagement shoot. His passion for the art was so infectious, especially since it was our first time doing professional photos. It took us some time to warm up to the camera, but once we did, well, the pictures really speak for themselves. Murtaza especially has an incredible eye for creative photo ideas, and he and the team made it so much fun even though we were stressed out with all the wedding drama. They scoped out noteworthy outdoor locations that made amazing backdrops, helped corral family members together for group photos, and just generally went above & beyond to make sure we had coverage of all the important moments - all the big things and the small details too. The photos we ended up with were beyond what I imagined, I'm thrilled with how they turned out. Now, I just need someone to help put the wedding album together.... :)
