Adriane was the PERFECT photographer for our wedding. Neither my wife nor I like being the center of attention, and Adriane made us feel totally at ease.

When we were looking for a photographer, we really liked her style – she not only captures people and moments really well, but also the tiny details that we love (e.g., the trees at the venue, dessert cookies, table settings, etc.).

She knew the venue (Amphitheater of the Redwoods) very well and took us to a hidden spot on the property that made for wonderful candid photos after the ceremony.

Adriane was also really thoughtful and organized on our wedding day. She made sure we thought about whether we wanted certain photos and moments captured when we hadn’t thought about them at all…and many of them ended up being our favorites! She was effectively our guide throughout our big day, making sure we knew we were to move to the next phase, letting us know when her time was near its end for any last photos, etc.

Can’t recommend Adriane enough!

My husband and I cannot stress how lucky we feel to have had Adriane photograph our wedding in June 2023. She was so kind, caring, fun, and helpful throughout wedding planning and on our wedding day. Our pictures are absolutely gorgeous--she documented our day perfectly. Our friends and family could not speak more highly of her presence or her photography.

Adriane helped us feel comfortable at our wedding and engagement shoot, she was responsive and helpful leading up to both, and we are so happy with the final products. Definitely recommend for anyone getting married on the Santa Cruz area!

Adriane was a dream to work with for our wedding in Santa Cruz! She's artistic, fun, and professional. We will always be grateful to her for the beautiful pictures but also how she interacted with us and our guests during the wedding. Highly recommend!

We hired Adriane to shoot our wedding in Ben Lomond in October 2021. From our first meeting with Adriane, my husband and I were so impressed by her professionalism and kindness. She was incredibly helpful with planning leading up to the wedding (with shot lists, day of itinerary, etc) and even did a venue visit ahead of time which was not required.

The day of our wedding, Adriane made us feel so at ease. We really enjoyed spending so much of our wedding day with her. She was on time and so on top of it throughout the day, ensuring we got all of the shots on our list!

The photos turned out absolutely beautiful. There was so much diversity in the shots in terms of posed vs candid, locations, and lighting. She also managed to capture photos of all of our guests (we had about 65 people). We are so happy we hired Adriane to capture our wedding and would highly recommend her services!

Adriane was absolutely amazing. From the first time we spoke with her she made us feel special and like she was genuinely excited to work with us. My now wife and I were nervous about being in front of a camera but after meeting with her for our engagement shoot we knew we had made the best decision in working with Adriane. She made us feel so comfortable and was genuinely fun to work with. Come 2020 when our original wedding was planned, we had to make the decision to postpone and Adriane was very accommodating. Last minute we decided to do a small elopement with just our immediate family out of town. Four days before our wedding all the forests in California closed due to extreme fire danger and we had to rush to find a new location. Through everything, Adriane was so supportive and encouraging. Our wedding and her photos ended up being perfect and we couldn’t be happier. We honestly can’t recommend Adriane enough, she is wonderful!

I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Adriane went above and beyond and helped make our day so great! She was adaptable, easy-going, and helpful. My parents remarked that she was incredibly professional and pleasant to be around! She took awesome photos and has an eye for the shots that will make your wedding look gorgeous. All my family members said "wow" when they saw the photos she took! We could not be happier with our decision to hire her.

Adriane White was our wedding photographer and we would choose her for any event moving forward. This was one of the biggest decisions for our big day and she more than delivered. Our pictures are unique, beautiful, and so much fun. I knew from Adriane’s work that was posted online that we would love our pictures but until we met her at our engagement shoot had no idea how much we would enjoy working with her. She made us feel comfortable, relaxed, and like we could be ourselves and the results speak for themselves. She made sure we got all the shots we wanted and then blew us away with all the candid moments she captured. We could not be more thrilled with the outcome and will cherish every picture forever.

We could not be happier that we chose Adriane to capture our wedding day. She was so incredible to work with, and she got so many awesome shots on the day. We also had her take engagement photos which were also amazing! Our house is now a living shrine to us because I love our pictures so much!

She was so patient with me and really took the time to work through the day with me. She was a huge part in planning the timeline of the day, and really worked with us to make sure we were getting what we wanted.

She was such a calming part of our day, and was able to capture so much of the day, without even being noticed by guests! They all said how they barely noticed she was there. She was able to capture so much of the emotion of the day, and our photos are so full of life!

I know there are a lot of decisions to be made when it comes to planning your wedding, so let this be an easy one - hire her!!

We cannot speak highly enough of Adriane. As with all weddings, there are so many decisions to be made, and the decisions we made at every point turned out great. That said, without a doubt, the very best decision we made was to have Adrian shoot our wedding. As with any wedding photographer we had limited time to ‘get to know’ Adriane. However, the way she handled everything leading up to, and at our wedding it was more like we had a friend who was taking photos of our day. Her low key, yet exceptionally professional, presence put us at ease and made for an incredibly enjoyable day and AMAZING photos.

Adriane was awesome in our engagement shoot and we truly felt like she wanted get to know us and our relationship. Because of this the way she shot our day was special and captured everything in a way that truly reflected us.

We had a bit of a unique wedding venue that entailed a steam train through the redwoods, an outdoor standing ceremony in a confined space and then an indoor/outdoor reception. In the end, Adriane was incredible to work with in every aspect. She was so organized and offered so much helpful guidance leading up to our wedding. She got every photo we could have asked for and so much more.

We know this because we have already been sent all of our edited photos back just 7 weeks after our big day. They are magnificent and we could not be happier with them. Adriane and her shooting partner did an amazing job of capturing the entire essence of our day. From our low key time getting ready, to the challenging outdoor ceremony in the redwoods, to every family photo, to action shots from the reception that we had no idea even happened; all the photos are amazing. And equally as important the way Adriane approached the day instantly put us at ease.

If you are getting married in the Bay Area, and Adriane is available to shoot your wedding, you are making a huge mistake not to use her. Thank you Adriane!
