We are so pleased with our wedding photos! Liz was our photographer for our spring wedding in Sacramento. She brought the light and airy look we were searching for in our wedding imagery. We wanted the natural beauty of our location and design to shine. We love the mix of posed and editorial shots we were able to get. Our priority was enjoying our wedding with our guests, Liz made sure our photo sessions were quick, efficient and fun! We can't wait to have these photos in our home to remind us of our special day.

We cannot recommend Liz highly enough as a wedding photographer. From the moment she arrived, she felt just like a friend who happened to have a camera: sweet, warm, and genuinely fun to be around all day. That energy put everyone at ease, which made such a difference on a day that can otherwise feel overwhelming. What amazes us most is how alive our wedding photos feel. Nothing about them is stiff or posed to death, there's movement, laughter, real personality in every shot. She really captured the spirit of the day, the energy, the joy, the little in-between moments that make it feel like ours. Since getting the photos back, every single person we've shown them to has been blown away. We keep finding new favorites every time we look through them. These are photos we know we'll treasure for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Liz!!

We cannot recommend Liz enough!! Her communication was excellent leading up to the wedding and afterwards as well. Her personality is fun and warm, and she made everyone feel comfortable. If we lived closer, we would want to hang out with her every week! Liz made sure we got every photo we wanted and gave us ideas for photos we did not think about. She went above and beyond! She pays close attention to detail and does amazing work!

Liz Zimbelman is the BEST OF THE BEST! We hired her for both our engagement photos and our wedding, and it was one of the best decisions we made. Her talent is undeniable — just look at her instagram and website. What may not be obvious in photos though (but is just as important) is how she makes you feel. Liz has the most warm and calming presence. She is “light” and fun in the best way. At the same time, she is incredibly talented and knows her stuff. She is exactly the type of person you want there to capture one of the most meaningful times in your life. It felt so natural with her there. And the results speak for themselves!! HIRE HER!! You will be so glad you did!

Liz is an extraordinarily talented photographer! She has a natural gift for making you feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, giving just the right amount of direction so you never have to worry about how to pose. She captured the most beautiful candid moments and tiny details of our wedding day. We feel so lucky to have had her as our wedding photographer, and we will definitely be booking her for all of our family’s future milestones!

We truly could not have asked for a better wedding photographer! From the moment we met Liz, we connected with her immediately. She is so fun, warm, and easy to be around. She made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera and knew exactly how to pose us in ways that felt natural and made us look our absolute best. I gave Liz a shot list beforehand, and she not only captured everything I asked for, she took my vision and made it even better. She has such an incredible eye and captured so many beautiful moments throughout the day. She captured the vibe of our venue and the vintage Old money feel that we were going for! When we got our photos back, it honestly felt like we were reliving our wedding all over again. She captured the energy, emotion, and happiness of the day so perfectly. Liz is incredibly talented and such a fun person to have with you on one of the biggest days of your life. We absolutely love our photos and would recommend her over and over again!

I’ve been in front of Liz’s camera on multiple occasions and had she shoot so many of the weddings that I have done flowers for and she is by far THE best! I’ve never felt more comfortable in front of the camera than when she’s behind it. She knows exactly how to get the most incredible shots and does it with ease. Her editing style is timeless and she is my first choice for all milestones in my life that I want captured!

Liz was absolutely incredible to work with! She helped me plan my engagement proposal, and the entire process was seamless from start to finish. She made everything feel effortless and stress-free. What really sets Liz apart is her ability to instantly connect with people. She has such a warm, genuine personality that made us feel comfortable the moment we met her, and that made the entire shoot so much more natural and enjoyable. We had an amazing time, and the photos captured the moment perfectly. I truly can’t say enough great things about Liz. If you’re looking for someone who is talented, professional, and an absolute joy to work with, I couldn’t recommend her more highly!
