She went above and beyond throughout the process, and we love both our engagement and wedding pics. Willa has an amazing knack for finding just the right spot or angle to capture the perfect shot.

So many amazing shots, it's hard to pick our favorites. We truly enjoyed working with Willa, and all of our family noted how great and easy going she was to work with. My mom's exact quote: "I love Willa!" I have to agree.

She was everywhere and yet we never saw her or felt that she was too close, which was important to me. She made us feel so comfortable.

We are so glad that she did this as those photos were some of the most beautiful of all! Thank you, Willa!

We'll treasure these for a long time -- thank you Kristen!

I first met Barbara more than 2.5 years ago, my husband and I chose Barbara as our wedding…read morephotographer. We loved her style and her price for the quality couldn't be beat. We were super happy with our engagement pictures and ecstatic when she gave us our wedding pictures and slide show. For our wedding she shot in both film and digital and really caught the romance of the day as well as the joy of our family and friends. Barbara is amazing and comes into her element when she is behind the camera and made us feel so comfortable. I recently saw that Barbara was going to start doing Boudior and always wanted to do it and knew that she would put such a fun spin on it. We did our shoot yesterday at a swanky/fun hotel in west hollywood and it was such a blast! I am not a sexy person, but Barbara made me feel so confident and good about myself that I had no problem strutting my stuff knowing that she knew what to do to make me look amazing. Barbara is extremely talented photographer, and a great person. I can't wait to see these newest pictures and know that I will someday work with her again :)

We did a maternity shoot with Barbara, and we LOVE her work!…read more We were on our babymoon, and decided to do the shoot last minute. We started looking for photographers, and we are so lucky we found her!! She accommodated us the same day. She used both film and digital cameras during the shoot. She was able to capture the moments so well. The pictures are so graceful. The lighting she was able to capture during the sunset is just amazing! She got the pictures to us promptly after the shoot. And she even edited our favorites for us. We would highly recommend Barbara. We will definitely use her again!

I booked Rebecca to do a shoot with my son and his friends, who were graduating from UCSB. I admit,…read moreI was a little uncertain at first, because her gallery of shots was filled with wedding shots and children's portraits. But after we spoke on the phone, I felt confident she was up for the task. Her price was commiserate with the other estimates I got for the job. One thing that was key to me was that we would have all the digital photos, without having to pay extra for them or extra for high res. Another decision point for me was that she would digitally correct all the shots and not just 4 or 5 that I'd pick or worse, a fee to correct more than a few. To be clear, her fee included all digital shots in high and low res with all shots digitally corrected. In booking the shoot, she was flexible on picking the perfect time to try to take advantage of golden hour. She was also flexible about shooting at several locations around campus for no extra fee. I wasn't present during the shoot, but my son reported that Rebecca was great and fun and flexible. I can tell from the shots that the guys were very relaxed and had lots of fun with Rebecca. She took portraits of each guy, which the families loved and also wonderful group shots. I would hire Rebecca again in a heartbeat. She did a great job!

Rebecca met us down at the harbor for a quick family shoot and did an incredible job capturing great shots even when it was well past our little one's wake window. She knew just how to capture his attention and get him to smile. I appreciate how she made us feel so comfortable and was able to capture some truly candid shots. My Husband normally doesn't love family photoshoots but commented afterwards that it was his best experience and she was so efficient! Since our boy was a little grumpy she wasn't able to get any solo headshots with him smiling, she offered to come over to our place the next week and snap a few complementary. I have used her for a few shoots now and am always excited to get the photos back. Highly highly recommend!

Hopefully none of our other vendors read this review because I'm going to come out and say it --…read moreSanta Barbara Wedding Films was definitely our FAVORITE VENDOR of all our vendors (sorry not sorry). Our wedding morning was stressful to say the least and not a lot was going right or on schedule, but the team for Santa Barbara wedding films really helped us turn it around. They arrived on time, were professional, but also casual enough to make us feel more at ease and comfortable. They all just have overall fantastic attitudes. They even dealt with us being super awkward during some of the funny getting ready filming portions. They worked very very well with all other vendors we hired too, which made things flow more easily and smooth. They were never pushy and stayed less visible for the ceremony and reception. They even made sure to say goodbye before leaving the reception which we appreciated. So excited to see the final product. I wrote this review before getting the videos, because I already know nothing will change my mind about how awesome the team was on our day of lurvvv. I will recommend them to everyone getting married!

We love working with Brandi!…read more I met Brandi working at the same wedding as her. I was beyond impressed by her skills and professionalism. What really got my attention was how good she was at making people comfortable, and paying attention to the small details. As a photographer myself, it was very important for me to find the right fit for our wedding. She was so flexible and accommodating to all of our requests. My family traveled from different parts of the world (mostly South America), and she made sure everyone felt included and welcomed. I love having candid beautiful memories from all my loved ones. We've done multiple photoshoots with her since then, and the images are always outstanding. Brandi's also not only an excellent photographer, but she was so generous and fun to be around. She's so caring, patient and warm, which really helped to get our son to have fun too.

As 2 people who don't particularly enjoy being the center of attention or doing photo shoots, we can't commend Brandi enough for making us comfortable. She's very sweet and pleasant to be around. She gave us instructions when needed and was able to fade into the background so we didn't feel uncomfortable when needed as well. We had a few particular things we wanted her to capture and she listened and nailed it. She's a true artist and a lovely person. We're so grateful she was part of such important days for us. -Hannah + Ashley

Lindsey is beyond perfect. From start to finish she was extremely responsive, answered every question, and even walked me through how the perfect proposal was going to go on the phone prior. Lindsey was a key part of the engagement and even texted me the morning of good luck. She went above and beyond and directed a full photo shoot then delivered the photos same day after I proposed. All of the photos are beyond incredible. The only hard part is going to be picking your favorite.
