Laura Segall Photography

ion before and after the wedding she was a true professional and we both knew we would be in good hands. We actually booked Laura right before the corona virus pandemic hit, and we were all set to get married in November of 2020. We decided to postpone the venue wedding and have an intimate wedding ceremony in a family member's backyard. Laura was more than accommodating during this time; she had already thought about how to best help her pandemic couples and worked out with us seamlessly, photographing our intimate wedding and then the venue wedding in August of 2021. At both weddings the photos were beyond spectacular. We loved each and every picture, every one was taken with care and processed flawlessly. To best put together words for her work I’ll leave what my father told me after we had received pictures from the venue wedding earlier this year: “Damn she is a great photographer!” Also, Laura was so good at getting photos of literally everyone at our large venue wedding! She got pictures of each couple dancing, everyone having fun, and that was on top of us requesting other photos! She really went above and beyond. We will be using her in the future whenever we have professional photo needs!

s amazing. She is very professional and organized and easy to work with. We just got our pictures back recently and we are so pleased with them. The bride and groom are thrilled. Laura’s eye for art is top notch. She is so good with lighting and capturing emotion and personality. She took a small family only wedding ceremony (thanks to the pandemic) and made it look like an elaborate affair. Highly recommend!

great photos and also simply capturing the perfect moments. We love our photos and will cherish them forever. We highly recommend Laura Segall Photography. Thanks Laura!

o the wedding went so smoothly and turned out amazing.

verything came out so wonderful. I can't wait top have an excuse to use her services again.

ued up and ready to capture the moment definitely allowed me to focus on the proposal. Michelle and I will never forget this experience. Thank you so much.

ery moment and I will always be able to look at these photos and remember one of the happiest days of my life! Highly highly recommend!

portfolios to consider. Our focus was to find someone who would be fast so we could get to the party, and would capture the majority of the night in a candid as opposed to “posed” way. When we found Laura and met with her, she explained her background as a photojournalist & that her philosophy is to tell us the story of our wedding night, as we would surely not see the majority of things happening around us. We were confident we had found the person who shared the same vision we did to capture the best day of our life! I cannot stress enough how Unbelievably stunning our pictures are. They are beautifully candid, the lighting and colors appear as if they are straight out of a magazine, literally everyone who has seen them replies with some variation on, “you hired one hell of a photographer,” & many have asked us for her info for their special days! In addition, practically everyone feels like they don’t even remember seeing her- she was a fly on the wall capturing beautiful, personal moments, & delivering the final product in a timely and extremely professional manner. The photographer really is an expense you do not want to skimp on, and Laura Segall is worth every single penny & THEN SOME!!! Now our photos are being published in a weddings of the year magazine!!!

ble. My husband kept saying we should have spent the extra money to have Laura make the trip because we knew those photos would have been amazing. Over seven months later our other photographers still haven't gotten things fixed. THANK GOODNESS FOR LAURA!!! I told my husband to dress back up so that we could do fake wedding pictures, and Laura did not disappoint. We absolutely love the photos she took and will be framing them, rather than our "real" wedding photos. The lighting, the colors, Laura beautifully captured everything. We are lucky to have found such an amazing photographer, and I can assure you, we will not be taking chances with someone new again. THANK YOU LAURA!!!!!!!

ly gifted! Laura captures moments, and more importantly, the emotions we will cherish forever. She is a subtle observer who makes magic happen from behind the lens. Laura was a pleasure to work with, very responsive, and so easy to communicate with. Laura is a very special person and we will continue to use her talent and services for our future special photos. I cannot sing her praises enough or recommend her more highly!

sk questions. We had a really small wedding with our families and she put together a custom package that fit perfectly within our budget. The day of the wedding, we hardly knew she was there for most of it. She made everyone feel really comfortable, especially during the posed photographs. We recently received our pictures and they are gorgeous. They are a perfect mix of the more formal portraits and the candid moments. She does a great job capturing the emotions of the moment and frames them beautifully. I love how she incorporated the beauty of the venue into nearly all of the shots. The portraits are great, but it was especially fun looking back on all the other parts of the day. I really appreciated how easy she was to communicate with during the planning process. After the wedding she sent a sneak preview, then a couple of weeks after that she sent a link with some of her favorite photos from the day. We received our full set of pictures within just a few weeks. They came nicely organized by events (getting ready, first look, portraits, ceremony, etc..). Overall, Laura is really sweet and professional. Her prices were extremely reasonable. I'd highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a photographer.

"fly on the wall", she was exactly that. I hardly noticed her at all, and we ended up with the most gorgeous, natural-looking and FUN pictures. Not only that, but she's FAST! We got our wedding pictures back in one month. I cannot say enough great things about her! Would definitely recommend, and would absolutely use her again!

Laura has a lovely calm and confident presence, is at all times an utmost professional, and her photos never fail to capture the magic in a moment. Five years later, I had my own wedding. As a bride in the initial stages of planning, I had no clue what I wanted our wedding to be like. I was lost looking at all the different vendors, except, thankfully, when it came to photography I knew exactly what I wanted. I wanted Laura. The actual wedding day goes by in a blur, but you can relive the day again and again by looking back at wedding photos. So with that in mind, I knew Laura was my photographer of choice. I knew I could trust her to deliver beautiful wedding photos, both the real candid photos with raw emotions and the expertly posed traditional portraits as well, and to top it all off she's someone who is just a pleasure to be around (which, with the amount of anxiety I was feeling day of, was such a godsend!). My wedding photos are STUNNING, absolutely stunning. The posed portrait photos are exquisite - they're swathed in gorgeous natural light and my husband and I look perfectly framed against the desert landscape. I am beyond ecstatic to have these gorgeous portraits. Laura is very, very talented and has a great eye for setting up shots AND she made my husband and I feel comfortable in front of a camera. I love our posed portraits, but I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the candid photos. Laura has an uncanny ability to capture special moments with you not even knowing she was there snapping away. In every photo, she's captured the true spirit and real emotion of a moment. Her photojournalistic style work is phenomenal. I look at a photo and it snaps me right back into the moment. I'm so grateful for these keepsakes. Laura's work speaks for itself, so I'd like to touch a bit on how amazing she is as a person. In the hustle and bustle of getting ready on the big day one of my bridesmaid's thought she might be in the way of Laura taking a still life photo of my bridal jewelry. My bridesmaid said something to the effect, "Oh sorry, I'm in the way aren't I?" Laura's response didn't miss a beat, "No, how about this: You're never in the way" and she said those words with such kindness and sincerity. My husband said he was really impressed with Laura's professionalism in a particular incident that happened later in the night. We got married at the Desert Botanical Garden and we were off with Laura in the Gardens taking some newlywed portraits. Unbeknownst to me in my oblivious newly wedded state of glow, a gentleman was a tad begrudged that we wanted to take photos in a certain spot with just a minute before the light faded. My husband said the man was making some snippy remarks under his breath about there being another wedding (I believe there were 3 in the gardens that night) and he didn't want to seem to move along. For a split second, my husband said he was afraid he'd have to intervene. He said, instead, Laura handled it swiftly and professionally. She was a cool cucumber, assertive and tactful and while he can't remember her words exactly, she got him to move along with a harrumphed "Congratulations''. All this transpired in a minute with me being none the wiser. She's the best. Seriously, Laura is the best.

ion that you want to remember forever. Our friends and family have been so impressed by her photos and we have been too. She was everywhere at the wedding and reception and did not miss a moment!

and expressions. She also does a beautiful job arranging portraits and helping you feel comfortable in front of the camera. Laura would never force you into an unnatural pose; she captures people as they are. She's so quiet and calm that I sometimes didn't even notice her working, but she's also an expert in giving direction and helping to ensure the day goes smoothly. I have several hundred good photos from the wedding, and I would have been happy with even a fraction of them. We will treasure Laura's photos for decades to come.

eemed to tell a story and we found that to be true with the photos she took at our wedding. All of our family and guests have raved about the photos. We met with other photographers that wanted to bring their own lighting and tripods, but Laura doesn't need all that stuff to be able to take amazing photographs. Also, other photographers wanted to tell us how our wedding timeline should be, but with Laura she let us do our own schedule. She always was responded to my e-mails and phone calls in a timely manner. I would say she was very professional and a great wedding vendor to work with. If you are looking for beautiful and unique wedding photos then I would book her for your upcoming event!

en you don't even realize she's there, my friends said she was like our personal paparazzi all night! She really documents the event and captures the feeling of the day, I highly recommend her!

ake charge (which is a must to get through your list of pictures you would like) and very creative.

rs many different packages to fit every budget. She is an incredible photographer. If you are searching for a Photographer you should contact her!

time the bride and groom can't (don't want to) make anymore decision. I'm still waiting on the rest of the photos, but we made a great decision.

as only a great photographer can. Great quality photos, and she is great to work with!

sion and then through our wedding day, Laura was great to work with. Our engagement photos were amazing! After seeing how the turned out, in the days that followed our wedding my wife and I anxiously awaited our photos. We took our time to go through all 1,229 of them and are so pleased. Laura has a knack for telling the story behind the wedding day and her pictures are awesome. She captured some really breathtaking moments beautifully. What's more, Laura is such a kind person. Her calm, soft-spoken, pleasant demeanor even kept my wife calm during the day. She was running a little behind schedule and while my bridesmaids were helping her into her dress, she says looked at Laura who smiled and said "This is my favorite part." Those simple words helped her to keep things in perspective. Thank you, Laura!

nyone.
