  • Serves Solvang, CA

I'm a California native with a wanderlusting soul. I grew up in the snowy mountains of Lake Tahoe and spent my teenage years in the rainforests of Costa Rica before returning to the West Coast of the United States to study the art of wedding photography and earn my BFA with Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara, California.

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.

Cristian and Victoria were absolutely phenomenal throughout the entire wedding process. Immediately we both felt at ease during our engagement photo shoot, which made us all the more excited for them to photograph our wedding.

Love Knot Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Solvang, CA

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.

We hired Brittany Taylor Photography months before our wedding and began the conversation with Brittany herself who was so kind and communicative from day 1. She heard out our vision, answered all of our questions, and made us feel so comfortable. From the start we knew she was not available for our wedding day but we had full confidence that whoever the photographer we got assigned with would be the perfect extension of Brittany. We were SO lucky to work with Claire who kicked us off with an amazing engagement shoot. She put in so much thought and effort into scouting a location and shooting with her felt like doing a fun art project with an old friend. We were so happy with our engagement photos, they turned out so beautifully and were delivered professionally and right on time. The week of our wedding there was a wildfire a few miles from the venue and it was somewhat touch and go. Brittany was hugely empathetic to our situation and was so kind during the stress of it all. Luckily the wedding went as planned. Claire did an amazing job of directing our crazy family, was efficient and captured all the group shots we wanted. She truly added so much value to our special day as a person and as a talented photographer. The photos turned out better than we could have ever imagined. Claire had a great eye for leveraging the scenery of our venue and finding the most magical shots. Major kudos to Claire and Brittany for making us feel beautiful and for capturing the essence of our day. Love how it's packaged nicely in an online gallery as well. THANK YOU X A MILLION!!!

We are absolutely thrilled with the exceptional service provided by Alli – Alexandra Wallace for our engagement and wedding photos. From the initial consultation to the final delivery (within 30 days of the date!) of the photos, every step of the process was handled smooth, organized and her creativity is amazing! On the day of the wedding, Alli went above and beyond to capture every special moment. She was well-prepared, but also incredibly personable, making everyone feel at ease in front of the camera. Her ability to blend into the background while still capturing candid, intimate moments was truly impressive. We love her style each and every photo. What sets Alli apart is her attention to detail and dedication. She knew the perfect spots for our first look, bridal shots, and family photos. She also managed to capture the essence and emotions of the day beautifully, providing us with a stunning collection of photos that we will cherish forever. As promised, the final photos were delivered well before the promised date. The quality of the images exceeded our expectations; every photo was vibrant, well-composed, and perfectly edited. It was evident that she spent time on each photo and took ownership over her work. We highly recommend Alli and her team to any couple looking for a wedding photographer who is not only talented but also dedicated to making your special day unforgettable. Thank you, Alli, for giving us such beautiful memories to look back on!

A couple and their pets hiking in the woods...jumping in the waves at sunset...a bride dancing down the aisle...my goal is to document every scene of your story, so you can hold onto it forever. Whatever the occasion, whatever the venue, I strive to make the most out of life, capturing vibrant, authentic smiles, celebrating each moment, and spreading positive vibes. We only have one life to live...so let’s enjoy it! Though I specialize in couples photography, engagement sessions, and weddings in the Santa Barbara / Southern California area, I’m also available for maternity sessions and destination weddings.

Sarah was beyond amazing! My (now) husband and I have always been camera shy and were nervous about taking pictures, as we felt the process might feel awkward. Sarah, however, did not make this the case! Both our engagement and wedding day photos not only turned out amazing...but Sarah made the whole process FUN!! We both felt really comfortable around her. Sarah was able to keep the whole day running on track without being pushy at all and remained extremely pleasant throughout the process! She was very professional, and kept in contact throughout the wedding planning process which as a (very) stressed out bride was reassuring and beyond appreciated. Fast forward to the wedding day, she was extremely attentive. She made sure we were able to have time to eat and enjoy the reception as well as letting us know when it was time to take sunset photos. Sarah was great, and on top of everything else she was able to capture some amazing candid shots. Because of Sarah we are able to relive the best day of our lives through the photos she captured! If we had to do the whole process over again, we would definitely book Sarah all over again!

Leslie is an absolute gem! She captured our wedding in April 2024 in the most beautiful and heartfelt way. Based in Santa Barbara California, Leslie is not only incredibly talented but also super organized and professional. On what could have been a stressful day, especially when I felt like I was running behind schedule, Leslie and her team stepped in with calm reassurance and comforting words that made all the difference. Their positive energy kept me grounded and allowed me to truly enjoy the moment. As a thoughtful surprise, Leslie gifted us beautiful printouts of our wedding photos. They are absolutely perfect, and I can’t stop looking at them! It was such a sweet and meaningful gesture that truly reflects how much she cares about her clients and her work. Leslie’s attention to detail, her ability to capture every precious moment, and her genuine kindness make her the sweetest and most wonderful photographer you could ask for. If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only skilled but also kind, supportive, and a joy to work with, Leslie is the one. I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you, Leslie!

Welcome. Since 2011, Lerina has been photographing weddings of all shape and sizes. She has traveled throughout the country and abroad documenting love stories and the events that surround the most magical day in a couple's life. Today she calls both the desert and the coast home but feels comfortable anywhere a camera is slung around her neck, shooting on her medium of choice – film. Her work has been published and featured by Condé Nast Traveler, SELF Magazine, Green Wedding Shoes, Wedding Chicks, more.

Lerina and her team are pros at their job (they are organized, reliable, on time, communicative) while allowing for ample flexibility to suit your vibe. They understood and appreciated our desire to capture genuine, nonscripted moments in our wedding photos and we are so happy with the results. It was harder for them to make sure they took pictures of everyone we loved without the traditional family photos, but their care and commitment came through and they delivered on all our needs.

I have seen Albert’s work from afar for years and to say he is a good photographer is a compete understatement. He went above and beyond our expectations ! He is truly an expert in his craft , not only did he have great recommendations for the location, he was timely, friendly, & gave excellent direction on how we were to pose for each photo. We booked Albert for a pre-wedding photoshoot and honestly amidst all of the chaos and confusion that goes with wedding planning he was the one aspect that we did not have to second guess at all.

Augusta Ottillia Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Solvang, CA

My passion for photography was built on nostalgia. From a young age, I loved opening of the old holiday popcorn tins full of generations of family photos that my mom kept in the hallway closet. It felt magical to pull out old memories and hear my mom recall the story behind a photo. Now, I love to capture these special memories for my clients to pass down to the next generation. My job is to encourage and direct you so you feel comfortable and confident while taking photos, capturing each unique story in a creative and authentic way. I do this by creating a space for us to truly get to know each other and be ourselves.

If you are reading this review in search of a wedding photographer, you can stop the search now, because Augusta is who you want! Augusta is so talented, so easy to connect with, and takes the time to truly understand what you and your partner are hoping to capture. On our actual wedding day, there were many times we were running behind schedule, and Augusta quickly adapted and still managed to capture more than we ever hoped for, or expected. More than that, I'm not sure how many weddings Augusta has worked, but she makes you feel like the most important and special person, is so attentive, has such a calming yet commanding presence (exactly what you need, but didn't know you needed until the day is actually unfolding), and makes you feel like you've been lifelong friends. She's extremely professional, great with communication, and if I had 15 weddings, I'd want her for all 15 of them.
