We hired Linda to shoot our small wedding held in my parents garden on a beautiful June day in 2017. She was recommended to us by a friend who used her for his wedding. We really liked her natural style and the types of candid shots she created. With our plan to time our ceremony in the late afternoon and finish in the evening, all in a garden environment, we knew she was the one for the job! I cannot emphasize enough how much passion and enthusiasm Linda brought to our special day. As the sole photographer for our group of 18, she managed to be so many places at once, capturing sweet shots of the kids, while shooting many great candids of the adults. Her images also captured the many nuances of every stage of our wedding from our ceremony, the reception, the dinner, cake cutting and dancing. Her photography told a story that we can reminisce on for the rest of our lives. We highly recommend Linda, especially if you want a style of photography that offers a beautiful narrative of your wedding day.

Linda was an amazing photographer. The whole experience was like having a personal "fabulous" coach for your and your partner on your special day. Linda did both an engagement session (for which she was so generous with her time), and covered our wedding. It was incredible how she both seemed to become part of the whole crazy apparatus of our wedding day, but was the part that reminded me to be human during really intense moments - she captured a quiet moment at sunset between my partner and I that I will never forget (and now I don't have to - the picture takes me right back to that emotional space). She was so dynamic and flexible - she was directive when she could feel us getting self conscious or when she knew we were trying to achieve a particular "look" for a photo, but for the most part, she was always at the right place and the right time to capture really organic moments. It was pure joy to scroll through the photos after - I feel so lucky to have this little time capsule, and Linda's editing made my partner and I look FANTASTIC. :)
Please hire Linda - she's such an old soul, and the exact positive energy you want at your wedding.

I'm going to start this review with the end product: Linda's photos of our wedding are absolutely stunning. She fully captured all the joy, laughter, tears, promises, commitment, celebration -- all of the emotions and the moments of that day. She also somehow managed to be everywhere at once, documenting things I didn't get a chance to see live. I think she sent us close to 800 photos of our day, all gorgeously lit, and I have looked through all 800 shots at least ten times. Her work immediately brings me back to how amazing and overwhelming our wedding was. Linda, I can't thank you enough for capturing all of these memories for us.

I MEANT to start my review by sharing advice from my wedding planner: pick a photographer whose photos you like (obviously), but more importantly, pick a PERSON you really like, because you're basically spending your entire wedding day with them. Linda is an adorable, hilarious pixie who somehow manages to be both an artist and an incredible businesswoman. She is super organized, reliable and communicates well. She knows how to be unobtrusive (in order to get REAL candid shots) but she can also assert herself if your family party of 20 both somehow wants group shots but refuses to be corralled into taking them. I HIGHLY recommend Linda, for her ability to tell your story in photographic form, and because she's easy to work with, and finally, because she will just make your day better.

I can't say enough positive things about Linda. I was in a bind and needed a photographer last minute for my New Year Eve, backyard wedding. I contacted Linda 3 days before my wedding date and not only did she respond within an hour of receiving my e-mail, she was quickly on the phone with me to get more information about the wedding and the vibe we were going for. Wedding day, she was on time, professional and helped put me at ease with the stress of the day. Linda was even able to gracefully work with some of my most demanding family members, not an easy feat. Her quirky ideas for photos where spot on with the theme of our wedding and matched my husband and my personalities. I have never felt more comfortable with a stranger, but Linda was like family that day and took the most gorgeous photos. I still have friends talking about my wedding photos. Linda is 100% worth it!

We are so fortunate to have had Linda as our wedding photographer! Our goal was to have a photographer with a unique eye and sensibility, and we found that in Linda. Her curiosity, joy, and of course, skill, were evident when we checked out her portfolio, so we were excited to see what she would capture. We only had her shoot for a few hours instead of the whole day, but Linda made the most of that time. We were most interested in candid shots, but the group/family and posed shots were also important. Working with us as a group, Linda was energetic and unifying, keeping everyone focused and smiling. She also shot beautiful candids, and got creative with several of our hat wearing friends. She engaged with us, our friends and our family in such a natural and encouraging way that many people thought she was an old friend of ours! Linda was such a delight to work with, and we love the photos we have as a document of our memorable day. She is now our go-to recommendation for anyone looking for a wedding or portrait photographer.

Our photos are so so beautiful linda, you're incredible. Linda was by far the very best person we worked with and the best decision we made about the whole thing. I'm so self conscious and dreaded all the attention and all eyes on me but she made me so much more comfortable and natural and nothing felt forced at all. Im guessing some of that has to do with all her ninja moves~ my husband told me she was climbing all over to get good angles and I barely even noticed the whole time :):) She was so sweet and patient with everyone even when it got chaotic and she just took it all in stride and chatted up my wedding party while gently redirecting us! I did a lot of research and spoke to Linda before choosing to work with her, and we knew it was one of the most important decisions and investments we'd make. Not only was she so thorough and straightforward and flexible with our budget, but she was also so personal and even sent me some books and an adorable video she thought id like :) It was very welcomed to just have a vendor email me with something thoughtful and not just a bill!...which i LOVED --->(Lennon and Maisy cover of Edward Sharpes Thats Whats Up..sweetest thing ever) I don't even know how to thank you enough, I have been and will continue forever to recommend you to anyone that will listen <3

Linda was the most professional and provided the best service of all vendors we worked with at our wedding. Highly recommended! Our wedding was in San Diego and my wife wanted Linda to travel down from LA. Her photos speak for themselves and fit my wife's desired style perfectly though I was initially skeptical due to the added travel cost. After speaking with Linda she immediately eased those concerns by being both helpful and flexible with various suggestions to meet our budget while accommodating our requests. Communication up to the wedding was easy and she also worked closely with us to scout post ceremony photo locations since she was less familiar with the area. Day of the wedding everything was perfect. We opted for an assistant photographer to capture both bridal party and groomsmen preparations. They arrived before we even started to get ready and their professionalism and experience immediately provided a positive, relaxing influence. My wife commented numerous times how Linda was like an extra sister keeping her calm, not just about photos but also any other issues that popped up. Throughout the wedding they both integrated seamlessly with the proceedings, taking charge when needed and disappearing into the background when not. My wife and I are both generally photo-shy and could not be happier with how the photos turned out. They are incredible. The church, venue, and location were all beautiful to start yet Linda was able to add even more through her creativity and style. Looking back through the photos we are able to see so much personality and details previously unnoticed while we were caught up in the whirlwind of the day. The photos really are priceless and worth every penny, highly recommended. Thanks Linda!!

Linda did the photography for our small guerilla-style Malibu wedding which we planned from Chicago. Though our ceremony was small, we had some non-negotiable requirements for a potential photographer. They had to be comfortable with same sex couples. We also wanted someone with experience shooting different body types. Linda met both of those requirements. Since our ceremony was a small, near-elopement, we didn't need a fully day's worth of photography including reception photos. We just wanted someone to take some posed shots and then document the ceremony. Finding someone willing to do that was more difficult than we had imagined but Linda agreed and she had no problem just going with the flow on our wedding day. We found our ceremony site online but didn't actually see it until a couple days beforehand so we weren't really able to give Linda much detail about potential shots. The ceremony was on an overlook at a public beach and we had decided to just show up and get married in front of about 20 of our closest friends and family. Linda was totally game for it and immediately began coming up with ideas for gorgeous shots upon arriving at the site. She was really easy to work with, warm, friendly and laid back, giving us gentle instruction when necessary. And we really appreciated that we were able to just download all the photos directly rather than having to purchase any physical discs or photos. The shots were beautiful and I'm so happy that we stumbled upon Linda's site during our planning process.

Linda is a wonderful photographer. She's present, professional and exceptionally warm for posed photos (which is a great combination -- we felt so comfortable with her), and somehow duplicates invisible copies of herself so that she's everywhere a picture needs to be taken without getting in the way. It was incredible!

The photos themselves turned out beautifully. We really could not have asked for a better photographer, or for photos that better captured the spirit of our wedding.

Linda was absolutely amazing. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer and she managed to capture us and our day perfectly. We got all the shots we wanted, but none of them were stuffy or seemed overly "posed." I still recommend her to everyone.
