Joleen Willis Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,250
  • Serves Columbia, CA

It is so important to me that your wedding photography is authentic to you as a couple. I want you to have the space to be yourselves, and the time to savor each part of the day. While I do enjoy directing my couples to some extent, I want to be involved as little or as much as you'd have me. I want to work with you closely months before the day to make a timeline that fits your personality and also gives you confidence in the photos you'll receive once the day is over. I want to make sure that we don't rush to the next part of the day without really enjoying the part that comes before it.

The photos we got for our wedding were mind-boggling! They were so well done. Everyone we showed them to got emotional. We had a unique situation where we could take photos in a cave, and they came out incredible. She also traveled far for our wedding, which we really appreciated. She was so great to work with and made us and everyone who took photos with her feel at ease. Multiple people came up to me and told me how much they liked working with Joleen and how nice she was. We're so happy we chose her for our photos. Thank you!

  • Serves Columbia, CA

Tiffany specializes in creating the exceptional luxury of an alluring yet cultivated experience while capturing connection and beauty. She draws from over ten years in the wedding photography industry to capture authentic luminous love stories that reflect not only the beauty in a moment but the feeling.

Tiffany and her team were AMAZING! From the moment we contacted her, Tiffany was professional, helpful and easy to talk to. Figuring everything out for my wedding was all a learning experience and she helped me out so much during the process. During our engagement session, we got to know Tiffany better and once we saw the photos she took, we knew we had made the right choice. We refined the timeline (a lot) and she was available for questions or concerns when I had them. We had the most amazing wedding day, thanks to Tiffany, Alyssa and Brittany. They helped us figure out the best places, and how, to pose and made my husband and I feel super comfortable the whole time. Tiffany captured shots in a way that takes me right back to that moment and I'll cherish them forever. All the photos we got back were fantastic, and I would recommend Tiffany to anybody who needs photos of anything!

Love Wildly Elopement Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Columbia, CA

Photographing elopements happened by chance for me, but once I did my first one, I realized what an amazing experience it was for my couples. Having played a role on so many big wedding days, I realized there was so much my couples were missing out on. The stand out was the pace of the day and time spent with each other! I learned elopements moved at a much slower pace and that those couples had so much more time with each other. They are free to mark the date at a location that really speaks to them, and without a guest list (or a small one) they were so much more free to celebrate the way that left them feeling the most content.

Joleen is one of my favorite photographers in my area. Every wedding and shoot I have worked with her has been a great experience. She provides a high level of professionalism to her brides and is sensitive to every clients needs on the day. Joleen knows exactly how to make her clients feel at ease and relaxed in front of the camera while capturing the most important moments.

Vic was an AMAZING photographer for our wedding, we could not have possibly picked better. My entire family loved her, and she made them laugh so much- which was amazing considering some of us were nervous! She got to the venue and immediately had ideas for what shots to take, which helped me so much considering I hadn’t really planned what I wanted photos to look like. They came out amazingly. She captured every part of the evening, and the edits we got back are beautiful. I love the way the gallery is set up to make choosing photos easier and to ask for more later, or keep unedited versions too. Thanks to Vic I will have those special memories forever!

The video is incredible, it tells the story of the wedding so perfectly. They were so patient with all the chaos and made everyone feel relaxed. Even the little candid moments of friends dancing and laughing were captured beautifully. They were professional but also fun to work with. Watching the video made me tear up, it’s like reliving the day. They truly made the memories last forever. I couldn’t be happier!

I can’t say enough amazing things about Nichole at Mates of Soul! From the moment we met, she made us feel so comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. Neither of us are big “posed photo” people, but Nichole captured everything so naturally — every smile, laugh, and candid moment felt so genuine. She has the best personality — fun, upbeat, and such great energy — it honestly felt like hanging out with a friend who just happened to be taking the most beautiful photos ever! She got every shot I hoped for (and then some!) and made the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish. Our photos are absolutely stunning, and every time I look at them, I’m reminded of how fun the day was. I’d recommend Nichole a thousand times over to anyone looking for not only incredible photos, but an incredible person behind the camera.

Hi! My name is Madison, but you can call me Maddi. Raised in Maryland, I've lived in Colorado, South Dakota, and Germany. I now live in San Diego with my husband and our two dogs. I've always had a love for photography and I feel privileged to bring my passion to life. I want my photos to capture the genuine feeling of the moment and to reflect you and your story.

We are absolutely thrilled with our experience with Madison! From the moment we met, she was incredibly friendly and easy to talk to. She made the whole process feel so natural and enjoyable, which was so important on such a big day. Not only was she professional, but she went above and beyond in ways we didn’t expect. For example, when I was struggling to pin something to my dress, she immediately jumped in to help—something totally outside her job description, but she did it with a smile and made sure everything was perfect. It was those little thoughtful gestures that truly set her apart. And of course, the photos are nothing short of stunning! We absolutely love her style and the way she uses color. She made sure to capture every important moment, and we now have beautiful memories to cherish forever. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for not just a photographer, but someone who genuinely cares about making your day perfect.

Hiring Calea as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our entire wedding. From the very beginning, she was warm, professional, and so easy to work with—but on the wedding day itself, she truly blew us away. Calea has this amazing ability to capture not just the big, beautiful moments, but also the little in-between ones that mean the most. She handled our wild, fun-loving crew with such grace and patience, and somehow managed to keep everything organized while still letting us just be ourselves. The photos she delivered feel like pure magic—every glance, laugh, and happy tear preserved in the most stunning way. And she always goes above and beyond what you imagine. Beyond her talent, Calea felt like family. She blended right in with our guests, and so many people commented on how wonderful she was to be around. I’m endlessly thankful that she got to experience the joy and love of our day right alongside us, and even more thankful that she gave us the gift of reliving it all through her lens.
