I am so impressed with the care and finesse Elizabeth puts in her Santa Barbara wedding photography - and the joy she takes in it. She showed impressive initiative to fine-tune our "Whimsical Spring Wedding Showcase," held at Live Oak Unitarian Universalist Congregation, jumping right in to help with the "props" in the Outdoor Sanctuary. Elizabeth made the guests feel at ease as she effortlessly moved captured key moments and angles of the event with attention to detail. Her professionalism and personal warmth spelled success at our wedding showcase. Elizabeth Victoria is delightful as is her photography, and hope to work with her again at weddings at Live Oak's event venue!

Elizabeth is absolutely incredible! From our first conversation and engagement shoot to the last shot of the night on our wedding day, we knew we were in the best of hands. She's punctual, a consummate professional and a ton of fun! She is a true creative that will capture those special moments like no other. We cannot recommend Elizabeth enough for all of your photography needs!

We highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for a photographer: you will not be disappointed. We really hit the jackpot when it came to photographers. Elizabeth was just amazing and brilliant behind the camera. Between the engagement and wedding pictures, she captured not just the beauty of the scenery but us as a couple. She responded back to us in a timely manner with all the questions we had for her. Her website was easy to follow and use. She was the easiest and by far best decision we could have made. We were sad when the wedding was over because she became a friend over the 2 years we were planning our wedding. We still have people talking about how gorgeous our pictures turned out.

Book her now!!

I reached out to Elizabeth because I enjoyed looking through her website. Once I sent contact information, she sent a video of herself and I got to see and hear her before even having a meeting. I liked the video and decided to meet with her through Zoom. We got along during the meeting and I felt comfortable. I thought that it would be fun and easy having photos taken by her.

She was early to the engagement shoot and picked out spots that would photograph nicely. It was easy for my husband and I to be goofy with each other. We laughed so much during the shoot.

The wedding day itself was so hot. She picked a cool spot for us so that we weren’t miserable in the sun. She took photographs fast and made sure I had water. She had our best interests in mind and knew where and when to photograph to get the best shot. She was able to fulfill my requests of getting veil shots and getting replica shots of my parents’ wedding. I truly enjoy looking at our photographs of our wedding.

My husband and I had a separate church wedding. My Nana was not able to make it to the civil ceremony and I really wanted her there for the church wedding. The church wedding was postponed a few times so that my Nana could be there. Elizabeth was accommodating and supportive through the whole process.

Elizabeth was fun, professional, and supportive through the wedding journey. I highly recommend her!

Once we met Elizabeth we cancelled all of our other appointments with other photographers! My husband and I both instantly had a great time at our first meeting, which was exactly how it was on our wedding day too. She was absolutely more than a photographer. Pre wedding communication was easy, wedding day with her was incredibly smooth, and we even had a sneak peak of our photos the night of our wedding.

Pre-Wedding:
Met with got along right away, took the time to show us her work and get to know us both personally, made us our own portal with pre-wedding day questionnaires, quick contact/replies for all questions and even suggested vendors we still needed.

Wedding Day:
I am soooooo thankful I had her- She encouraged me to make a timeline, which we stuck to, which ensured I didn’t feel rushed the morning of. Her personality meshed well with my bridesmaids/family, she had a sense of humor and also was able to lighten the mood when things got tense. Pre-ceremony when I was feeling a little anxious and was alone in the bathroom, she even took it upon herself to talk to me (I didn’t want to talk to anyone else in that moment Lol) and initiated some breathing exercises that we did together. She knew exactly what to say (with years experience in these crisis moments) and handled everything so smooth and professionally the entire time. She even helped bustle my dress after the ceremony and if she hadn’t we would have been behind schedule for entrance. We didn’t have a wedding coordinator so she coordinated with the DJ and between them, everything was exactly as it were on our timeline at the reception.
I also loved that with family portraits she gave the very necessary direction to everyone! Everyone cooperated and listened which is difficult when it is so hectic and hard to get everyone’s attention. She even made time so we could stop by a get a photo with our cat!

In summary again, she was MORE than our wedding photographer! We are both VERY happy to have had her with us on our wedding day, several of my family members also told me how much they liked her personality. I can't imagine having had anyone else :)

I would hire Elizabeth a million times over.
A photographer was one of the first things on the list to book for me and my husband. We looked at well over a hundred portfolios and Elizabeth’s was one of the few that felt so genuine and really captured the style we wanted.
After one phone call, we were hooked. Elizabeth was kind, professional, and funny, and we instantly felt comfortable with her (totally necessary for a photographer). When we took our engagement photos with her, she put us at ease and I was blown away at how they turned out. My husband and I had never taken professional photos together, and she made the process easy and kept us laughing the whole time.
On the wedding day, Elizabeth was the true rockstar of the day. More than any other vendor, she kept us on track and brought the positivity. She ran the whole show on the morning of our wedding, and during the reception made sure we still took time to get the extra shots we wanted. She directed family and friends and made sure we accomplished everything we’d hoped to photograph.
She delivered our photos in a very easy to use gallery and within just a few weeks of our wedding (well within her contract time). I am blown away every time I look at the photos.
Elizabeth Victoria photography made my wedding the success it was, and I cannot recommend her enough.

If you are considering booking Elizabeth to photograph your special day, just do it! Her attention to detail is always on point, the pictures she produces are breathtaking, and her amazing personality really makes you feel like you’ve been friends forever. She is able to capture the most perfect moments and made sure that we had fun throughout the entire session. She was especially accommodating to us as we requested to have our dogs in some wedding photos and Elizabeth made sure that even my dogs looked good in the pictures! Everyone that has had the chance to view our photos claim they are the BEST wedding photos they have ever seen! I have family members that are now booking sessions for their future photos as they cannot believe how beautiful her pictures turn out. I cannot imagine a better photographer for a beach wedding. To say the least, Elizabeth is amazing and she will make sure you get the photos you want on your special day.

Good morning Elizabeth! ☀️
I finally have a chance to sit and write you. I can’t even begin to express how grateful I am for you! 💝 Due to unforeseen circumstances I was not able to be with my daughters to finish getting them ready and you stepped in! The stories they share of you being there and whipping them into shape is hilarious and such a bonding experience! Your pictures, so far, 🌅 are over and beyond what we could have ever dreamed of! 😍 You made the day run smoothly both physically and emotionally! To sum it up, I wanna be your best friend! 😆
You deserve a million bucks and if I had it, I’d give it to you! What you did is priceless! 💖

~~~ Love, Tera Sillett (Mother of the Bride)

We are so glad we found Elizabeth and choose her to be our wedding photographer. I can't say enough about how professional Elizabeth is and the quality of work she provides. She made us feel at easy from a start and captured some fantastic photographs. She has captured the most special moments of our wedding. I would never hesitate to recommend her to anyone who wants a true professional who is also a true artist in her filed. Great personality and sense of humor is a great benefit!!!

How to capture and portray our thoughts on the true talent that is Elizabeth Victoria Photography... Elizabeth and her team were nothing shy of amazing, authentic, and detail driven. Not only did they bring it 10,000%, but they did so in a professional, fun, incredible way. Planning before, and every second during the wedding, Elizabeth and her team listened to what we wanted, provided input and guidance, and gave us exactly what we needed. Weddings aren't cheap, and I promise you one area you do not want to cut corners on are the photographs. Hiring Elizabeth as our photographer was an investment, and one we don't regret. Our families jokingly (but completely seriously) talk about ways of how we can re-hire Elizabeth to take our pictures and come hang out with us again because hanging out with her all day was magical, fun, creative, and PERFECT! Who knew hiring a photographer would be such a life changing thing?!
