Best Wedding Photographers in San Diego, CA

My husband and I were blown away with how creative Alex got during our wedding. The photos and highlight video came out so great! Their out of the box thinking really shows in their work. All of our friends and family have been amazed at our photos.

I cannot say enough good things about Ashley! I had a small courthouse wedding and wanted things very simple. I didn't put a lot of planning into it other than maybe 5 pictures I wanted. Ashley delivered those I wanted and then had so many unique ideas of good photo spots in the area. She carried my purse in her camera bag so it wouldn't be on the ground, which was the sweetest thing. I didn't even think of poses before hand, but she came prepared with that too! She knew exactly what to suggest to make our photos exactly what I wanted. Not only is she like 5 people in one, her photo editing is gorgeous. The editing on her photos was the main reason I originally chose her, but honestly the way she goes above and beyond in every other way is why I will tell everyone to hire her as their photographer. The absolute best!!

We cannot recommend Alejandro and Cinematica Weddings enough! From our engagement shoot to our wedding day, working with Alex was genuinely such a wonderful experience. From the very first time we worked together for our engagement shoot, Alex made us feel so comfortable. Photos can be a little nerve-wracking when you’re not used to being in front of the camera, but he made everything feel easy, natural, and effortless. I think that is a huge part of what makes his work so special. Nothing felt overly posed or forced—the photos felt cinematic, editorial, and completely like us. That same energy carried over to our wedding day. The day absolutely flew by, but Alex and his partner brought such positive, go-with-the-flow energy while still keeping everything on track. From getting ready through our reception and open dancing, they captured our day so beautifully. And the photos and videos… WOW. We were blown away. We received our full edited photo gallery just over a couple weeks after our wedding, and our recap video came just under two months later. So many of our photos had this gorgeous editorial quality that left me thinking, “I can’t believe these are OUR wedding photos.” They captured the emotions, details, and energy of the day while still making everything feel cinematic. One of my favorite touches was the camcorder footage incorporated throughout the day. Our hair and makeup artist, groomsmen, and bridesmaids all captured little moments from their own perspectives. Those clips made the video feel so personal and documentary-like, while the rest had that beautiful cinematic quality. It was such a special combination. The process leading up to the wedding was just as great. Communication was always open, and Alex was just a text away whenever I had a question or concern. He has such a positive and friendly attitude. We love his creative eye. It was truly a pleasure to work with him and his team. It was easy to trust his process. It has also been so exciting to see Alex’s work receive the recognition it deserves, including features in Vogue and Vanity Fair. He has mentioned what an honor it was for him to be part of our special day, but honestly, it feels like an honor for us to be part of his journey too. We are so incredibly grateful that Cinematica Weddings documented such an important chapter of our lives. Every time we look through our photos or watch our video, we get to relive the magic all over again. We absolutely LOVE our wedding footage and could not recommend Alex and his team more!

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!

Book Alex immediately!! We used Alex for videography and he exceeded our expectations! His communication before the wedding was prompt which I appreciated especially during the thick of wedding planning. Myself, husband, bridal party, friends and family loved Alex’s calm demeanor in guiding us through our wedding day for exceptional video shots. There was no pressure, all fun, and Alex did an exceptional job capturing wonderful moments. His turnaround for our wedding video was quick and captured the day perfectly. I made a LONG list of things I wanted/didnt want in the video, and he took all of my thoughts into consideration. If you look at his portfolio, each video is individualized-true to each couples’ preferences and style. We loved working with Alex and would use him again for future events!
