    Some of the best wedding professionals I’ve ever experienced

    Mindful Media Photography documented my best friends’ wedding in May 2025, and I can honestly say that Angie and Lee were some of the best photographers and wedding professionals I’ve ever experienced. Not only are they skilled at their craft, but they are such genuine and down to earth humans. They approached our friends’ wedding day with professionalism, flexibility, and kindness - all qualities that provide structure and comfort on a busy and emotional day. Angie and Lee were quick to adjust photo schedules when the mother of the groom was sick, gracefully and patiently deescalated a situation with beach personnel, and were flexible and enthusiastically ready to accommodate alternative scenarios to fulfill the bride and groom’s visions when access to the original plan changed. They were also very welcoming for the wedding party to take personal photos and videos, which was awesome. Overall, their positive attitude and demeanor were very appreciated and I would recommend Angie and Lee at Mindful Media a million times over!! Anyone that hires them for wedding media and content will be in great, capable and supportive hands.

    Enjoy these BTS photos!

    Lovely photos and fun and kind photographer!

    When I saw the photos Angie advertised, I knew right away she was the perfect photographer for our wedding. Angie was incredibly responsive and professional. In person, she was so much fun to have at our wedding! She was able to capture beautiful moments from our the day and returned them to us quickly! We would definitely recommend Mindful Media to others!

    Awesome photographer!

    Angie was flexible when we had to change our wedding date due to COVID-19 and was very professional in all our time working together! She gave us some beautiful photos catching our natural personas and some playful ones! She has a friendly and warm personality and was a joy to work with during our wedding day!

    Amazing photographer!!

    My husband and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture our wedding! Angie is a truly gifted artist! We had multiple people come to us after the wedding with nothing but praise about her and her amazing ability to somehow be everywhere at once. I don't think a single moment wasn't captured. She kept in constant communication with us leading up to the event, so we never felt stressed or worried in that department of planning; she had us covered. On the day of the wedding, when I finally got to meet her in person, it felt like greeting an old friend! She has such a beautiful personality! Even after the wedding, she stayed in contact with updates and sneak peaks of photos. The final results were breathtaking! My favorite thing about her photography style is how natural and candid everything feels while still being edited to have fantastic lighting and colors. 10/10 would highly recommend her to capture your special day, she's incredible!

    Best Enagement photos ever!!!

    Angie did our engagement photos in Northern California where I am from and was nothing but amazing during the entire process. She was honestly the best vendor I have worked with so far and it just up for anything and was super flexible! She was also great to just be around! Taking romantic photos can be super awkward and she was so easy going and was so much fun! We had a great time when I thought it was going to a painful few hours!!! Just when we thought it couldn't get better we got our photos back and HOLY SH** they are amazing!!!!! If you don't hire her then you are crazy!

    Angie's work is stellar

    Angie was so much fun to work with. She really made my husband and I feel like natural models in front of the camera. Her words of encouragement were great and there were so many genuine smiles on our day. Her turnaround time was great too, we got our photos back around 2 weeks after the wedding. I highly recommend Angie and would love to work with her again some day

    Pure Magic!!

    Angie/Mindful Media Photo was an extreme pleasure to be around and did such an amazing job at our intimate wedding. For my husband and I, who are a little camera shy, she really helped us feel comfortable and have fun. Not to mention, we got our edits back sooo fast. Wow! The magic of our special day was captured so well!! It’s been wonderful replaying our wedding day through Angie’s Mindful lense. Needless to say, we’d love to hire her again for more events.

    Very talented artist in Angie

    OMG... I am BLOWN AWAY by Angie's talent. I have never felt so beautiful in my life!!!! Thank you thank you thank you! She is so talented, and I just love the pictures! All of them. Even the ones with my crazy dogs. I was totally crying when I went through them. Thank you Angie so much for sharing your talents with us!! We couldn't be happier. I am so happy that the timing of the shoot worked out, and know it was just meant to be that you had that cancellation and that the wind died down, and everything was just perfect. We couldn't afford a real photographer for our wedding 10 years ago and my only regret after all these years was that we didn't have it captured on film as it really happened. Well now, I feel it has all been redeemed!!! And I owe that all to Angie and her talent and your ability to help us feel comfortable in our skin. She has a real understanding of the light and her subject and these are just beautiful. We will cherish these forever!!

    Angie, just the calming influence we needed

    We hired Angie to do our wedding photography for a COVID social distanced wedding. We had two picture sites, one in a forest setting and one by the shore where our actual wedding took place. Angie was great, we couldn't be happier with the pictures that turned out! The nicest thing about her was the pre-session pep talk that she gave us before starting the session, which was key because our nerves were frayed from some planning mishaps. Angie was awesome at coaching us to get good shots, and she came with a lot of great ideas, and she was really open to our ideas as well. I'm the groom, so I don't really know a lot about this stuff but I came away thinking it's really worth it to spend on a good photographer.

    Beautiful pictures, amazing experience

    If you want someone that is going to capture all the happy moments of the wedding Angie is your girl! She did both my engagement shoot and wedding day and both came out so good. The day of the wedding I was obviously very nervous but she made sure to make us comfortable and most importantly have fun. She captured so many beautiful candid photos, I was so happy with how they came out. She even sent a questionnaire a week or so in advanced to make sure she knew what important moments I would want her to capture, which I appreciated because I would of otherwise forgotten the day of. Overall my experience with Angie was amazing and I highly recommend her!

    Amazing! Highly Recommend!

    We recently took our engagement photos with Angie and she was so great to work with! We were a bit nervous, she made us feel really comfortable and was so easy to work with. She was super quick and we received our photos within a week they turned out amazing! I highly recommend and we cannot wait for our wedding next year with her!

    So fun and pictures came out amazing!!!

    We had an amazing time with Angie doing an adventure shoot up overlooking Lake Tahoe. She was so fun to work with and the pictures came out even better than I imagined. We had our pictures sent to us in just a few days. Would recommend her x100!

    Amazing experience - highly recommended!

    Our experience with Angie was beyond amazing! Angie is a wonderful, very warm person and super easy to communicate with. She provided great suggestions for potential locations for the photo shooting (not even being from the area!) and did amazing research on the light, tides, accessibility, etc. The whole session felt very natural, Angie provided great suggestions, and we really had a blast. We received our pictures already after a few days and were absolutely blown away by how wonderful Angie captured the moment, the scenery, and the beautiful light. I HIGHLY recommend Angie and hope we can book her for more photo shootings in the future.

    Photography

    Top Notch Service, Fun Experience

    We were very happy with Mindful Media. Our wedding plans changed multiple times due to circumstances outside our control, and Angie was very helpful and flexible through the whole process. She had some super creative photo ideas, and we were very happy with the results. She also delivered the photo files within a reasonable time. She certainly helped make our wedding memorable!!

    Family Portraits

    Angie was PHENOMENAL! She’s so patient and fun. She made my kids feel like superstars. It was not your typical sit down, take a photo, and see ya later kind of photo shoot. She really captured everyone’s personality and the love each of us in the family have for each other. The creativity and eye for light and the way it changes a photo showed in the final product. She edited our photos wonderfully, the turnaround time to receive the photos was very fast, and we are still raving about how much we loved having her as our photographer. I’ll never use anyone else again. She is absolutely a master at her craft, and passing up booking her would be a mistake. I highly recommend her for ANY of your photography needs. She goes the extra mile for her clients (literally), and I love her dedication.

    It was very first experience with and was really exciting working together with her.

    At first we were so nervous and excited. But it went so perfectly as much we were expecting. The quality camera is really impressive and the edit too. We were really impresses when the picture is out. I hope everyone will love it too.

    Very gifted

    really can't say enough about how fun, professional, and gifted this photographer is. My wedding was on March 20th she took hundreds of photos and she was done only three days later! The photos of my wedding gave me and husband so many warm feelings ♥️ she's so talented and you would be honestly making th great decision in having her as your photographer.

    Engagement Shoot

    Angie was so great to work with! She was fun, creative, and encouraging of trying different angles, views etc.

    She even climbed up on a wall to get the perfect shot.

    If my fiancé and I were planning on getting married in California, we would 100% hire her to shoot our wedding! 😊

    Super sweet, reliable and talented

    My family and I used mindful media and photography when we traveled to Florida for a family vacation. Angie was quick to get in touch with with me when I reached out online to her and also every time I had a question too. On our date we scheduled, she arrived promptly. We had a large group that required many different shots and she was very accommodating with everything we needed. She made everything fun and enjoyable. And we got all of our pictures sent to us less than a week later. Everyone was very pleased. I would highly recommend!

    The absolute best!

    Angie is a pleasure to work with- talented, accommodating, and affordable! I contacted several wedding photographers, but on my first interaction with her I immediately felt at ease and booked my engagement photos, and wedding photos soon after.

    She has a keen eye for photography and catches the small moments you miss on your wedding day/event, which was so nice to see- not to mention I got our photos within two weeks!

    I highly recommend Angie to anyone and will use her for my future needs.

    The Absolute Best Wedding Photographers!


    I can’t say enough good things about Angie and Lee. As a bride who has been a bridesmaid NINE times, I’ve had the chance to see so many photographers and videographers in action, and Angie and Lee stood out in the best way. Every single person who attended our wedding keeps telling me how amazing they were.

    From the moment they arrived, they had a calming, professional presence that immediately put me, my now-husband, and our entire wedding party at ease. They knew how to take charge without ever being intrusive. They were warm, respectful, and had a natural rhythm with each other that made the whole process smooth and easier than any other wedding I’ve been a part of.

    They truly went above and beyond. One of my bridesmaids is interested in photography and videography, and they offered her an extra camera to film part of the wedding!

    As someone who’s fairly particular (re: picky) I had a few specific requests and preferences throughout the day and afterward. Angie was responsive, flexible, and quick to implement changes I asked for. Plus their turnaround time on photos was insanely fast!

    Their pre-wedding communication was thorough and professional and their follow-up afterward has been just as thoughtful.

    PLUS - they are incredibly affordable as photographers/videographers go. We were married in my hometown, South Lake Tahoe, which did not have an extra travel for them either.

    Seriously can’t recommend these two enough.

    Thank you, Angie and Lee!

    Created a very "mindful" wedding day experience for us...

    My husband and I had a Covid-19 wedding, so our grand wedding plans had to be drastically simplified. I was on the verge of not hiring a professional photographer and instead have a friend take photos. I’m so glad I didn’t. Angie was amazing. Not only did the photos turn out wonderful, but she put us at ease during the photoshoot (both my husband and I had been a little stressed with coordinating the ceremony logistics). We also had a lot of fun taking the photos. She had a lot of ideas for poses, but was also receptive to what we wanted. Overall, she just wanted us to act naturally, and be happy and calm in our photos, which I think really showed in the end result. I would highly recommend her for a small or large photo shoot.

    Wedding photographer

    Angie was exactly what we wanted for our wedding. The big ceremony was postponed due to COVID-19. We asked if she could do our micro wedding or elope in the mountains and she happily agreed. She went above and beyond to get hundreds and hundreds of pictures. There are so many good ones. We have no idea which we're going to print and share. I would highly recommend Angie! She was great to work with and the pictures are incredible!!
