Honeylume Photography

What excites me most isn’t just photographing a wedding day, it’s delivering images you’ll come back to again and again. I focus on real connection, genuine emotion, and creating an experience that feels easy and comfortable from start to finish. Sometimes that means quietly observing the day as it unfolds, and other times gently guiding you when you needed. With nearly 20 years behind the camera, my goal is simple: to capture photographs that feel as meaningful years from now as they do the moment you see them. If you’re looking for someone who cares just as much about how your photos feel as how they look, I’d love to connect.

Lee has beautifully photographed some of my family members for years, so we were excited to choose him for our engagement photos. He not only met our expectations, but far exceeded them! Lee took amazing photographs of us at Castaic Lake and made it a super fun, comfortable time. It was our first time taking professional photos together and we had a blast. Lee really knows his stuff, and he made the whole shoot feel very natural and relaxed. Cannot recommend him enough!!

I am a father of two beautiful young kids. I do Weddings/engagements/family because they are fun to me. I don't book myself full because I don't want to lose the magic of capturing someones day, that they spend ages planning. I work with a small trusted team that together has a lot of years experience. I work every shoot to capture the emotion in which you actually felt in the moment. No Ai was used in the creation of this explanation ;)

Well if you've stumbled upon this review, consider yourself lucky that you found Jeff. Jeff was my wedding photographer, and I could not be happier. Not only was he a calm presence on our wedding day, but he also stayed later than expected when our timeline ran behind which I really appreciated. Jeff has an amazing creative eye and put so much effort in to make sure we had the best day. Thank you again Jeff for your hard work and your kindness. My husband and I printed out his photos and enjoy them everyday in our home. We are so lucky we found Jeff and I have recommended him to multiple friends, who have also been happy with his services. He's our go-to photographer for all things now including family photos!!! BOOK HIM if he's available for your date!!!

Randall de Leon Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Sherman Oaks, 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely love working with Randall! He has been our go-to family photographer for years, capturing everything from my sisters' and cousins' special moments to my graduation and most recently, my wedding. Randall is incredibly easy to get along with, always professional, and super responsive. I never had to worry about a thing, he came fully prepared for our big day and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. He has a great way of making everyone feel comfortable, which really shows in the beautiful photos he takes. We will continue to hire and recommend Randall every chance we get. He’s awesome, and I 100% recommend him to anyone looking for stunning, heartfelt photography!

Bedrosian Photo was an incredible choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, Peter is attentive, responsive, and incredibly helpful in ensuring our vision came to life. The quality of his work was truly phenomenal - their documentary style photography captured the most authentic and one-of-a-kind moments of our special day. Peter went above and beyond to make my husband and I, who are normally camera shy, feel completely comfortable and seen. The way he was able to beautifully document the intimate Catholic faith traditions and cultural elements that were so important to us made the entire day seamless and reflective of who we are as a couple. We are over the moon with the final photos and couldn't recommend Bedrosian Photo more highly.

When I’m not behind the camera you can usually find me in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes, sipping a dirty martini with friends, jamming to Taylor Swift in the car, or taking my rescue pup Ollie to the park or on long neighborhood walks.

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.... :)

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.

It was a delight to work with Stephen for our wedding. We couldn’t be happier with the photos from both our Hindu ceremony as well as our western wedding. He was flexible enough to work beyond the original number of hours on a hot Malibu day for our Hindu wedding. He sourced a great second photographer to cover all the moments in our western wedding. The pictures are mesmerizing. He really listened to what we wanted and lent his talent to provide us with terrific and special images. He captured so many candid pictures of our family and friends and it has given us a lot of joy to look at them. Stephen was professional, considerate and wonderful to work with. And his pictures show that he is a true artist! Look forward to working with him again!

Welcome. I'm D e r e c k. I've been doing photography and videography since 2017. It wasn't until the pandemic of last year that I decided to take a leap of faith and make it a full-time career. I feel like I've always had a burning passion for photography and editing, I love photography because it captures a moment in time. Whether that moment is your wedding day or an annual family portrait, pictures enable us to relive and remember special occasions again + again. Why I specifically dove into Wedding Photography? Simple!! My love for creativity and seeing passionate couples that aren't afraid to show their personalities

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Dereck for an after-wedding celebration for our son and daughter-in-law and were very happy with the experience and the results. From start to finish, Dereck was professional, responsive, organized, flexible, and punctual. He scheduled prep meetings with me before the event and came fully prepared with backup cameras and batteries—including for drone footage—which was especially important since the couple arrived a bit later than expected. Everything ran smoothly and without stress. What sets Dereck apart, however, is his storytelling approach. He partners with a talented videographer to produce a beautifully edited five-minute montage that captures the essence of the evening. This isn't a music-only highlight reel—it thoughtfully weaves together background music with dubbed audio: excerpts from speeches, guest messages to the couple, laughter, and candid moments. The result was an emotionally rich snapshot of the night—far more meaningful (and watchable!) than the typical two- to five-hour video many videographers deliver. Dereck handled the golden hour and night-time lighting beautifully. These included candid guest shots, posed and portrait photos, and lovely images of the couple alone. His fees were very reasonable, especially when compared to other “content creators” we considered who offered only iPhone footage and music at a similar price point. Dereck’s work was on an entirely different level. We are absolutely thrilled with the results and wholeheartedly recommend Dereck to anyone looking for a photographer who is not only technically skilled, but also an exceptional visual storyteller.

Gabbie Burseth Photo

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $7,200
  • Serves Sherman Oaks, CA

Gabbie Burseth grew up documenting everything and saving mementos in empty Christmas boxes. After studying at the Grady School of Journalism at the University of Georgia, she discovered an affinity for weddings and their accompanying treasures. Her philosophy as a wedding photographer is to observe with as little interference as possible — no faking it, no do-overs, no “for the camera”. Her biggest desire is for couples to be present at their wedding, not stuck in a photoshoot. Her work is punctuated by rich and vibrant color, the timeless quality of analog film, and a sense of humor found in fleeting moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
For our wedding experience, my husband and I were looking for a photographer that specialized in candids— someone who was focused on capturing natural moments versus the formal, posed ones. Gabbie delivered. She photographed our at-home engagement session, our typhoon-ridden wedding day, and threw in a post-wedding session for free due to circumstances out of our control on the wedding day. Our venue was not prepared for the day to be rained out, so there was minor chaos that I learned of after the fact. Gabbie and her second shooter never let on to any mishaps or miscommunications on the venue’s behalf and fought through the absolute freezing rain with us all day. We deeply cherish all of the photos she took… from us dancing together in the kitchen of our first home, to us bundled up under an umbrella, kissing in the rain after the ceremony, to priceless images of our friends and family breaking it down on the dance floor at the reception, and to the bridal portraits she took of us months after the wedding when she wasn’t satisfied with what we were able to get on the actual wedding day. We have nothing but great things to say about Gabbie and would highly recommend!

She seriously made me feel like I was a model throughout my entire wedding weekend. She has this innate ability to put everyone at ease and guide you so naturally that you forget you are even being photographed. Her direction feels effortless, and somehow she captures these genuine, intimate moments. We are absolutely obsessed with all of the photos we have seen thus far (I have included some here)! Every single shot is stunning, and our entire family has been raving about them non-stop. Throughout the wedding weekend, we received so many compliments from our guests about how much they loved Jess and her warm presence. She truly became part of our celebration. Honestly, I am already thinking of excuses to hire Jess again for family photos because working with her was such a wonderful experience. I truly cannot recommend her more highly!
