Lauren Ogden Photography

Lauren Ogden Photography, based in San Diego, CA, provides stunning albums for couples celebrating their wedding. This experienced artist knows how much thought goes into planning your big day and wants to be there to capture it all. From the happy tears in a loved one's eyes to your broad smile, each authentic moment will last forever. They serve throughout California and love to travel to venues on the Hawaiian Islands.

I found Lauren on a random day scrolling through Instagram and fell in love with her work. When it came to choosing a photographer, her name popped up on our venue’s preferred vendors and on our wedding planner’s preferred vendors. I knew right then and there that she was going to be our person! Jonathan and I are not a photogenic couple, we are awkward and hate being the center of attention. We met Lauren and Toby the day of our wedding and automatically felt comfortable. I had a little mishap with my dress and cannot thank Lauren enough for her patience in waiting for my dress to get fixed. Lauren and Toby did an amazing job with our family and friends as well, they all loved how friendly and easy it was to work with them. We received sneak peeks a week later and they are breathtaking!

INQUIRE ON MY WEBSITE! I've been doing this for 8 years now, & it really does get better with time. There are countless memories of laughter, holding back tears (mostly happy ones), surprises, & moments that my heart didn't see coming. The opportunity to meet couples that become friends is something I will always feel blessed to have. I love building that connection as much as possible! You two together is your own little piece of art. At least that’s how I see it! So with that being said, I don’t want to try & copy someone else’s art. How you interact together should be captured purely.

I'm so grateful I found Emma and her team on Zola. In addition to my wedding, I also had her shoot a boudoir shoot and that was the first time I met her. Since that was totally out of my comfort zone, I was nervous but she immediately made me feel at ease and comfortable. The photos came out great and my husband loved the gift. For my actual wedding, Emma enlisted Solveig and second shooter Shiloh, who were also fantastic. Even though I barely knew them, they jumped right in and everything was so calm and organized. I even got my sneak peeks within a week and a half! I can't wait to see how they captured the rest of my big day. I would definitely refer Emma and her team to anyone looking!

Hi there! I'm Khoa, a San Diego based wedding photographer who enjoys spending time with good people and road trips. I love all things weddings because witnessing couples' happiness brings me joy and fuels my creativity. I want to create photographs that can stand the test of time so couples can relive their day years from now and for generations to come.

We hired Khoa for our wedding pictures and could not be more pleased! We reached out for a custom quote given the amount of hours requested. He quickly responded and set up a zoom meeting to understand more about our expectations of the day and a general timeline. We were worried about rain, which luckily didn’t happen, and Khoa was able to offer his expertise advice in the event it did. The day of the wedding, he was very friendly, had a true creative eye for detail, and was very professional. He delivered far more photos than we expected and within 2 short weeks. We were so excited to share with everyone and everyone was very impressed with the photos. We definitely recommend Khoa!

I’ve been happily married for almost 27 years. I have three awesome sons. My parakeets Kiwi and Sparky are very social, meaning very loud! Champagne (maybe that’s why I love weddings) and sushi lover here! Photography has been my passion ever since my dad gave me my first film camera and introduced me to the dark room at age of 10. I lived in Japan for 12 years, and even performed on a stage there. I’m always up for a great road trip! I love tuna fishing. I love hats and want to wear them everyday (over 20 hats in my collection). I’ve been shooting beautiful weddings for almost 10 years. I secretly cry at every wedding.

It's not often that you come across a wedding photographer who can capture the essence of the day as perfectly as Irina did for us. The creativity and fun that she brought to the wedding were palpable, making her a hit with everyone who attended. It's clear that Irina has a natural talent for photography, which was evidenced by her ability to capture every detail of the wedding flawlessly. From the table settings to the rings to the families, Irina was able to capture every moment with a level of skill and expertise that is truly spectacular. It's not easy to capture the joy and love that are present at a wedding, but Irina did it effortlessly, resulting in a set of photographs that truly capture the essence of our special day. Beyond her obvious talent as a photographer, Irina also proved to be a trustworthy professional who was dedicated to ensuring that her clients were happy with the final result. It's clear that she takes great pride in her work, and her commitment to providing her clients with the best possible experience is evident in everything that she does. Overall, if you're in search of a wedding photographer who is both talented and dedicated to her craft, Irina is definitely the one to choose.

I am really passionate about my job. I love meeting and connecting with people. Making them laugh and having fun during the photo session is one of my main purposes. I love when clients they tell me they don't like to have their pictures taken, that is a challenge; and I promise I will change their minds. When you put your heart and soul in what you do, everything comes naturally.

Despite COVID making us change plans constantly, YC photography with Yrsina made it less stressful to plan and a no brainer to use her for our special day. She will fight for that perfect shot, telling random people strolling by to step to the side or get out the shot while still being professional. She is a joy to work with and will make sure to capture your memories to look back on for years to come.

I was raised in the Sierra Nevada foothills of California. I was drawn to photography in middle school and would enter photos of our family pets or family backpacking trips in our local county fair. My passion for photography grew while working as a hiking guide in Yosemite National Park. I mean… who wouldn’t want a stunning photo of Half Dome? El Capitan? Yosemite Falls? But it has been photographing wedding and couples that I find the most fun and rewarding. I have found loving hearts, wild souls, and adventurous spirits to be my people. I strive to visually capture the “spirit” of my subjects and record an emotional memory of the occasion.

I am a full-time wedding photographer based in San Diego and first things first, I want you to know your wedding is a huge deal to me. As your wedding photographer, I'm your ultimate third-well and your right-hand-woman. I’m like your bridesmaid / groomslady with a camera. More than just a hired vendor, I’ll be your cheerleader, encourager, organizer, drink-getter, and the gal screaming “YAYYYY" because I’m so excited about the awesome photos we’re creating together. With the experience, knowledge, and expertise of photographing nearly 300 weddings, I am here with you every step of the way. Can’t wait to be along this journey with you!!!

Stop looking for photographers - you’ve found the best one!! Here’s why: 1. She’s a tremendously talented photographer. Kami does her research, keeps you relaxed/comfortable, and is super creative. She was extremely prepared for our engagement shoot and on our wedding day and achieved amazing results (look at her albums). On our wedding day, she positioned herself thoughtfully, and respectfully. 2. Kami is a true professional, super fun and keeps it light. She brings amazingly positive energy, is fun to be around (an absolute bundle of joy) and has a higher level of emotional intelligence than anyone we know. She made us so comfortable in our pictures which reflected in how much we loved how they turned out. 3. Kami is a leader in both her field and as a person. If you could create a perfect photographer (and person) to go through a pandemic with, it would be her. Throughout some of the most difficult times of the COVID-19 crisis, she was calm, empathetic and so committed to making sure we were doing well, even when we had to reschedule, etc. We talked to her multiple times about our situation and she not only made us feel better afterwards, but feel on top of the world. She was with us at the worst moments and of course at the best (our 7 person wedding). Take a second to reflect on the impact that the COVID-19 crisis had on photographers. 4. Kami is a great communicator. Always proactive, respectful, and timely You learn a little bit about a person during the good times, but you truly learn about a person through the worst of times. We’ve known Kami over the last 1.5 years including through the COVID-19 pandemic and have learned about how she is an amazing photographer (again look at her albums!!), but more importantly an amazing person. She will be with you through it all. Congratulations on finding your photographer (and likely a great friend)!

I have traveled and photographed weddings and engagement shoots all over the country including internationally. I still get nervous before every wedding I photograph. If I didn’t have nervous tension, I probably would have lost the drive and passion for what I love doing the most. The reason for my love of wedding photography is simple: I love spending the day with brides and grooms creating wedding day memories that will last a lifetime. I hunt for moments that cannot be recreated or relived. I love capturing the raw emotion of a wedding day. I want to be the best not only for myself but especially for my clients.

Hiii! I'm Kayley and I'm so glad you're here. I’m energized by meeting new people, so please say hello! I’m a go with the flow kind of person – which explains my love for spontaneous trips and the excitement of weddings. I love to dance and have a good time (seriously, I WILL be out there on the dance floor with you).

Awarded Best of Zola
Kayley was recommended to me by a good friend who had worked with her for years. To say that I was impressed with her work would be an understatement - she blew me away. Not only did she fit within my budget needs, she came up with a plan that captured everything I wanted. My husband had a photographer there when he proposed, so we didn't do the traditional engagement and then wedding sessions. We ended up with an amazing motorcycle couples shoot, a boudoir shoot, and wedding coverage. Kayley was quick on her feet at our wedding - we had 300 guests spread out across a decent sized park with multiple buildings. She not only kept up, she also kept it together during an insane thunder storm at the end of the night! It was such a lovely and easy experience for my husband and I while we planned such a large wedding, we will definitely be coming back to her for future photography needs!

Have you ever met someone you just knew immediately was your person? We bet you have since you're here now! In 2015, Paul was the photographer at Crystal’s younger brother’s wedding, where she was a bridesmaid. We loved everything about that special day, but from the moment we locked eyes it was like time stood still. We knew then and there that we just hit the jackpot! Not only did we meet at a wedding, but we have both been in the events industry for well over a decade. Paul Douda Photography & Video offers full service wedding coverage for your big day in San Diego and beyond! We love to travel and destination weddings are a favorite!

We were looking for a photographer to capture our wedding day. We had specific requests one of them being we wanted the photos to be of the actual day as it was happening, not staged photos. Paul heard our request and went about the wedding mostly unnoticed, except where the group shots or special moments needed to be memorable. Crystal did the Video OMG. She captured everything we asked for and more. And the video trailer she made for us, wow!!! The first time I watched it I was thinking is this for real!!! Way over and above what we expected! I watch it all probably once a month. The first month 20 times a day and I still cry.. I love to send the video link to friends and Family. She made us look so good. Chad my husband and I went to a wedding show at the Grant hotel and literally search high and low for a photographer. Everyone had a package to sell, however no one listened to what we were trying to capture. When I said we search high and low I mean it. We found Crystal in the basement of the hotel, Chad fell in love with crystal first, being next to a brewery stand probably helped!! She listened to everything we were trying to accomplish for our special day. Even customized a special package based on our requests. Nothing was ever a problem or issue. The final results,Love these guys!!!!!!! Literally trust them for your day let them spoil you like they did for us. You will NOT be disappointed, not one bit!!!!!!!!!!

Hi I'm Halley I’m a couples, wedding, and elopement photographer based in San Diego, Big Sur, and Seattle, but I’m ready to follow you anywhere! I was born and raised in the PNW, I’m 28 years old, I have a husband and 2 puppies who I love with my whole heart. I’m an extroverted introvert who loves all-night brewery hangs just as much as home game nights, and my love languages are words of affirmation and sushi.

Halley knows big sur like the back of her hand, if you are unsure of specific areas to shoot at, but have an idea of what you are imagining, she’s your gal! Our elopement took place on a very cold and windy day, but somehow our pictures turned out looking like we were having the time of our lives in the most comfortable of settings. She also works with you on any specific requests you may have, she doesn’t stick to just one style. I wanted lots of movement and filmy type of pictures and she did an amazing job:) Seriously couldn’t be happier with the results

As a documentary wedding photographer, I’m here to capture your day exactly as it unfolds—real, unposed, and full of heart. Whether you're getting married in San Diego or halfway across the world, I focus on the honest moments that make your story yours. With a blend of film and digital, I craft galleries that feel timeless, cinematic, and true to the day.

Teresa is AMAZING!! Our photos are absolutely beautiful! We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her for our wedding. She is so talented, easy to work with, and captured our dream day so effortlessly.
