About this vendor
When we started our wedding photography business we knew that it was more than just a career path. We booked our first handful of weddings working for nothing and when we were able to bask in the joy of our couples stories, and the moments we captured that is when we knew that this was more than a job, that this was our passion. We are inspired daily by each couple that comes to us, because every single engaged couple has their own unique story, and their own unique dream for the perfect wedding day. All we want to do is take your story and capture it perfectly so that you can relive your wedding day as much as you would like through our beautiful wedding photography and films.

Our wedding was on June 8, 2024 and we used Capture Create Photography for our engagement photos and wedding day photos. Our photography team consisted of Lolita for engagement pho...
tos and coordination of wedding day photos, and Nate and Elle Jay for the wedding day. This team is amazing - they captured the magic of our special day with flawless execution. Lolita was very responsive over email and is extremely down to earth; my husband and I felt very comfortable talking to her from the first moment we met for our engagement photos. She spent about 30 minutes taking photos and when we received the photos, we liked every single one. I printed many of them because I loved them so much.
On the wedding day, the groomsmen had Elle Jay taking their photos, and Nate took photos of the bridal party. Not only did both photographers show up early, but they knew exactly what they were doing and I did not worry or think twice about anything they did. I am so incredibly grateful for Nate, as I am not super comfortable taking photos, but he told me exactly what to do and where to stand/look, and it made me feel so confident and beautiful. Elle Jay has special talents with getting children to smile for photos - I feel that this needs to be called out as our 3 year old nephew somehow smiled for photos!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Please go with this vendor for all of your photography needs.
I booked Capture Create Studios to film my wedding based off of a recommendation I received from the photographer I had booked. I was a covid bride, and had to postpone my wedding ...
from its original date. The original videographer I had hired went out of business unfortunately, so Capture Create Studios came in when I had to replan the wedding for a later date in 2021. Jon, one of the owners of capture create, was who I communicated with from the day I inquired about video services and on. He was very patient with me when discussing package options, and was an all around nice guy! He also assured me that with the uncertainties of the pandemic, that he would work with me in anyway he could to get my big day filmed, and not to worry if we ended up having to change the date around again. Luckily, we didn’t have to change the date again… but it was such a relief to know that he was willing to work with me, in the event of a date/location change. I got a great vibe from the e-mails and phone calls, and decided to book his company for my big day!
Not only was the videographer (Brendan) that captured our day very kind, but he got amazing shots, and our final edit that Jon made of everything in the package I chose turned out SO beautiful! I received our video package back in a timely manner, and received updates on the progress of the package being finished as well! I would recommend Capture Create Studios to anyone looking for an amazing wedding video, a very reasonable price for everything that’s included in the package, and for genuinely nice people to work with. I wish I had more events to work with them on! Great people :) 10/10, 5 stars, superb wedding videographer!
Highly recommended Capture Create Studios for your wedding needs. Hands down, one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding! Capture Create Studios did a such a great job captu...
ring our wedding day. Looking for a wedding photographer is such a big decision, and we are thrilled that we went with Capture Create Studios.
Our guests who have seen the photos absolutely LOVE the work that Capture Create Studios, they do such a good job capturing special moments during our event. We are so glad we went with their team!
The team was professional, prompt, and extremely helpful helping the day run smoothly.
They delivered above and beyond our expectations and would HIGHLY recommend Capture Create Studios for your wedding!
Jon and Chelsea are such fun and personable people to be around and that made it easier to be photographed. (Extra: they are both super good with kids!) 1/3 of our guests were ch...
ildren and they were able to capture perfect photos of them all smiling and looking at the camera! They were able to get photos of us with all of our guests and that was important to us. If you want photos that are timeless, choose Capture Create Studios. Thank you Jon and Chelsea for doing such a wonderful job on our day!
We also were able to snatch Nate (videographer) at the last minute through Capture Create Studios (literally a week before our wedding.) Our wedding day was not to celebrate us but to celebrate the people that made us who we are today. Nate captured everything that was important to us and that is our families and friends under one roof. We can't thank the Capture Create team enough that we get to relive those moments. Our friends and families can see that we are happy but to allow them to feel our happiness is a treasure that will last a lifetime.
Chelsea and Jon are truly the best! We did a seriously thorough search for our wedding photographer; spoke with many, met with several and the search stopped when we found Capture ...
Create. We loved their ability to capture the little moments, their balance of posed and candid photos and the overall lighting and color of their photography. Chelsea and Jon were wonderful to work with from the very beginning. They are warm, relaxed and clearly love what they do. Even though they Sacramento based, they were willing to travel to Napa for our initial meeting, Tahoe for our engagement shoot and Sonoma for our wedding – such troopers!
On the day of, when Chelsea and Jon arrived, it was such a calming presence – honestly like having a friend show up to support you on your day. They maintained a perfect balance of working unnoticed in the background capturing the little moments, and wrangling my huge family for photos. Throughout the entire process, from first meeting to finalizing our album, Chelsea and Jon were fantastic. We truly loved working with Capture Create and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a wonderful, talented team to photograph their wedding!
Awesome! I really enjoyed working with Jon and Chelsea. They made my requests feel valid and my ideas worth exploring. They really have a great eye for detail and they pay attentio...
n to more than just your words. They are fantastic artists who truly care about making their clients feel calm and important. I would definitely hire them again.
We absolutely loved working with Jon and Chelsea! I would highly recommend Capture Create Studios for your big day. They are calm, professional, fun, and truly want to make your da...
y as special as possible. They really cared that they captured what we wanted and knew the vibe of our wedding. They took the time to get to know us and made sure everything was set to go for the big day. Thank you thank you thank you for our beautiful pictures that we will cherish forever!
It can be so overwhelming looking for quality and affordable wedding photography, so when we found Sacramento wedding photographers, Jon and Chelsea we were thrilled. They alleviat...
ed so much stress from the planning process and were super helpful, they even helped create our timeline for the day so that we could fit in every special detail. On the actual day of they were a joy to be around and made all of our wedding photo dreams come true! I was concerned we would spend too much time taking photos and would miss out on enjoying the moments, but our couple shots and group shots were very efficient and we didn't feel like we missed out on any part of the day, we actually were ahead of schedule. I would highly recommend Capture Create to anyone looking, they truly made sure we were happy and we love our photos!
I wish we could give them 10+ stars on everything. THE BEST wedding photographers! If you are looking for talented, creative, professional, hard-working, passionate, friendly, and ...
all-in-all amazing photographers for your events, look no further than Jon and Chelsea. They both went ABOVE and BEYOND for all our wedding events (we had a typical big Indian wedding). They truly shined and made sure our events were captured beautifully. They were very responsive throughout the planning process, accommodating with our ideas and helped with their own creative ideas. The final pictures they delivered were exceptional! It was so much fun to work with them too - they are friendly and just awesome individuals.
We are extremely happy! :) Jon and Chelsea, we cannot thank you enough!

They are one of the best choices I made for my wedding! I highly recommend them. Their quality is amazing. They are so nice and professional. They are simply the best.
Chelsea & Jon are phenomenal to work with! We have used them for two events and attended a few others where they were hired. They both have great attention to detail and a truely...
artistic eye. Chelsea and Jon are very personable and fit perfectly into any type of event or photo shoot. I highly recommend them!
Chelsea & Jon are awesome. They did my son & his beautiful bride Mary's wedding and the pictures were beyond fabulous! Memories to last a lifetime!
Chelsea and Jon are the epitome of professionalism. Especially when our puppy threw up on their camera bag during our engagement shoot. Throughout the craziness of trying to wrangl...
e up our 2 dogs, they managed to capture beautiful portraits of our family. We absolutely cannot wait for the two of them to be with us on our special day!!! Highly recommend to anyone in the NorCal area looking for a photographer!!!
Pretty much from the moment we met Jon and Chelsea, we knew we wanted them for our wedding. They were always very responsive with any questions I had over the year between our book...
ing and the wedding. At one point I was worried that Chelsea wouldn't make it as she was due with their beautiful daughter, just a few weeks before our wedding. They assured me if she wasn't there, they'd have a backup, but thankfully we didn't need one!
They had great suggestions and were flexible with our changing plans/timeline. Jon and Chelsea worked well with our other vendors throughout the day. They made sure they grabbed us for the perfect sunset pictures and were genuinely kind and positive the entire day. One thing I really appreciated on the wedding day, was that they knew our bridal party's names. They were able to say, Rachel move here, Sarah step forward. It was so much nicer than hey you!
Our sneak peeks were delivered quickly, and the rest of the pictures turned out beautifully as well. There are moments that we missed, but they were able to capture and I couldn't have asked for a better photography team!
There aren't enough words to describe how beautifully Capture Create Studios documented our wedding day!! From their fun and creative energy to their gorgeous aesthetic & attention...
to detail, it was everything I could have asked for and more. It was the perfect balance of classic shots and unique takes from Capture Create Studios that made our pictures stand out from many others we'd seen. My husband and I spent a long while "ooh-ing" and "ahh-ing" over the special moments that Chelsea & Jon captured. They are memories that will stay with us forever, and I would choose them again a thousand times over. Thank you so much!!
Jon and Chelsea are the best, no competition. They did our wedding and I couldn't have asked for better people, let alone photographers. Their shots were amazing, ideas were fun,...
fresh and cute. They even surprised us with a video of our wedding for free, since they were just "toying around" with trying to get into videography. Thank God they did, because it's by far the best memory we have. Super chill, cool, people, who deserve all the success in the world. Thanks again!!!
I had the pleasure of meeting Jon and Chelsea of Capture Create Studios through a friend and was very impressed with their style. I was even more impressed when I met them and foun...
d out how cool and down to Earth they are.
I had them photograph my wedding and I was so happy with the outcome. They gave me a great mix of fun, candid photos and also beautiful artistic, creative shots. They made us feel so comfortable and got along great with all of our guests.
I have since had them do a set of family portraits and I loved those as well. I can't wait to see what else they do for our photography needs in the future!
Capture Create Studios, took all the photos of my daughter's wedding. They also did family portraits for us. They are the best photographers. I highly recommend them to everyone.
Love working with Capture Create Studios! Super sweet, talented, flexible and so easy to work with! Always a pleasure collaborating with them! Thank you for all that you do! :)
We had the pleasure of having chealsea and Jon shoot our engagement photos and our wedding! They were so great. Not only did they listen to the things I wanted but they also had so...
many wonderful ideas that I wouldn't have thought of myself. I would 100% recommend them to anyone and would absolutely work with them in the future for family portraits. They are very down to earth and you can tell that they love what they do!
The best. We worked with Jon and Chelsea after we found our previously booked "high-end" photographer to not be a good fit. Jon and Chelsea do amazing work: That is in terms of the...
making you feel comfortable and like you are getting what you want, and also the entire process all the way up to editing. We've since worked with them for family photos, but we are honestly scared they will get too popular for us to be able to continue to use!
I hadn't originally budgeted for a videographer for my wedding, but changed my mind just a couple of months out. I was fortunate enough to find Jon and Chelsea at the last minute, ...
and couldn't have been happier with my choice to hire them! They are so unobtrusive, fit in to each moment like family, and made sure to capture all of the emotion of the day in the perfect fashion. Our highlight videos were wonderful; they took my suggestions but also put their own creative twist on them, knowing it was what was best. I can't recommend them enough, and hope to have another opportunity to work with them in the future!
I'm afraid my review won't do Jon and Chelsea justice because of how amazing they are... there are no words. I can say they are the dynamic duo. Professional, super creative, easy ...
to work with, think on their feet, and well priced for the quality product and service you get. I also appreciated how they asked for what they needed and provided samples for guidance. Very responsive via email and always genuinely positive. #AllTheHearts for these two.
I know many people are indecisive on spending the money on a videographer. I can say that without a doubt, if you hire Jon and Chelsea, it is well worth every single penny!
We wer...
e engaged for a year and a half before we got married and we were in contact, the whole time. No hesitation, or groans with all of our questions and request!
The day of, they arrived even before we had asked, just to get some INCREDIBLE drone shots. They stayed all day, and we, honestly, forgot they were even there.
As a bride or groom, you have a million things going on that on the day of, it is so easy to black out from excitement, miss important things, or just so wrapped up in the moments that you miss everything else going on around you, as you should!
The day we got the video back, my husband and I sat on the couch for an hour bawling our eyes out. With a flood of memories coming back, and so many wonderful, beautiful moments captured, we couldn’t contain our emotions. This moment alone, without a doubt, was worth every dollar spent. We are able to share this moments with friends and family that were unable to make it to the wedding, and show family and friends our first look, and everything they missed as well! And of course, for us to re-watch until we are 90+ years old, and need a little reminder that our love is still strong!
We worked with Capture.Create Photography for our September 2015 wedding and we could not have made a better choice! They were so easy to work with, from making payments as the big...
day approached, to handing over a list of “must-haves” and all the many creative photos they took before, during, and after the ceremony. The photos turned out beautifully, and it is so great to work with people who are down-to-earth in their professionalism. My husband and I cannot recommend Jon and Chelsea highly enough, and we look forward to working with them in the future for family and special occasion photos!
Jon and Chelsea are incredible to work with! I am beyond grateful for the incredible photos that they were able to capture. I was truly impressed by their dedication and the sincer...
e passion that went into making my day special! I also adore that they were able to snap photos of the entire day and our guests in raw and natural form, special moments and interactions that I am so glad I will have memories of forever. I was also so impressed that they took the time to photograph the small details, from the attire, to the little but special decor. I was thoroughly impressed with my overall experience with Capture.Create Photography and will definitely be using them for future events!
