Having Teri as my wedding photographer has been a dream for a while, and she did not disappoint. She was the first "vendor" I reached out to after we got engaged! Going from a 250 guest wedding, to a micro-wedding, we had Teri's support through it all. She did a wonderful job of capturing our day and was so fun to be around! Our photos are absolutely breathtaking and I can't wait to showcase them in our house for everyone to see. We look forward to having Teri join us again for our reception! I can not recommend Teri enough!

We hired Ashley to photograph our elopement in San Diego and she made our day so fun and easy! She recommended awesome vendors, ceremony locations, places to stay, and knew all the best spots for pictures. We had the best time with her and absolutely love our pictures! Ashley made us feel so comfortable, kept us laughing, and delivers amazing work. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!

We hired Julia for our elopement in Sedona and wow! We could not be more grateful for it! First, she is extremely communicate and punctual. You never realize how important this is until you deal with vendors who aren't! Second, she has a true knack for lighting, posing, and capturing the scenery around you. She knows what angles best compliment you and her creative mind allows her to capture the most stunning photos- the ones you see in magazines! She's adventurous and has no fears, which means she's ready to go anywhere: the edge of that cliff, in that freezing cold water, over that chasm, into that cave- you name it, she's up for it! Finally, Julia is genuinely kind. This is very important, as it makes you feel more comfortable in front of the camera. Whether it's your first experience or you are a pro, she dampers the anxiety and makes it an unforgettable and fun experience. It was a pleasure working with such a talented and friendly soul. Thank you Julia, we will cherish these moments forever!

After discussing with my wife, we've decided apart from our small ceremony that hiring Will had to be the best choice we made for our wedding. He traveled from California to Alaska and was able to adapt his style to the challenges of snow, rain, and frozen gusts in the sun-- all while still making us look fantastic. He was very kind and helpful in planning. Even when we hit roadblocks or weren't sure of the next steps, Will was always throwing out collaborative ideas that matched our vision for the day. He took the time to make sure what we wanted was executed. His personality is a great presence on your wedding day. He is calm, positive, and if things change, adaptable. The photos were amazing, and that is an understatement. Although we originally hired him as a photographer, by the end of the wedding we felt we should have invited him as a friend instead. Nothing but positive things to say about our experience with Will. If you have the opportunity hire him, you will not regret it.

When planning for our June wedding in Mendocino, we knew we had to get the perfect photographer, someone who could really capture the beauty of the coast and all of the vibrant colors that come along with it. After viewing tons of portfolios, Apollo's work really stood out from the rest. We loved everything we saw, from their ability to capture motion, their framing, to their vivid presentation of colors. We immediately hopped on a call with Liv, and she was super clear and up front about the whole process, which was very helpful for a couple like us who have never hired a professional photographer before. Many months before the wedding, we worked with Andra for our engagement shoot and it couldn't have gone better! Both my fiance and I are not used to being in front of the camera, so we were definitely anxious about the whole ordeal, but Andra assuaged our fears instantly. She led us around Buena Vista park and picked out the best locations with the most magical lighting like a hawk. After feeling how comfortable we were with Andra taking our photos and seeing how beautiful they came out, we were both so much more confident and excited about our wedding to come. For our wedding weekend, Andra came up to Mendocino and captured both our Chinese tea ceremony/wedding games and the wedding itself. Andra was super punctual and always at the right place at the right time. She was always where the action was, even getting a photo of my fiance catching a random bird that flew into the house! On the day of the wedding itself, Andra and her team made both the bridal party and groom's party feel comfortable, and took some of the most breathtaking shots of us on the coast. After the ceremony, she was able to get everything we wanted: candid shots of pure happiness, photos with various permutations of family and friends, and moments on the dance floor after dinner, where Andra's photos serve as a more accurate record of events than our own memories. Earlier than expected, we got an email with some teasers and we were amazed! We showed them to our friends and family and they were equally blown away with how they turned out. It definitely left us super excited for the full album! Overall working with Andra and the team was fantastic. Great communication, no logistical overhead, fun and compassionate team, and beautiful memories captured perfectly. Apollo really has the best wedding photographers in the Bay Area, and we are so glad we were able to have them come up to Mendocino to take our photos. The moments Andra and the team captured for us will live with us forever. Every time we see them, we can't help but to smile!
