Rebecca Skidgel Photography

to anyone looking for a photographer to shoot their special occasion!

lly important since I was planning a surprise proposal in Napa. She went above and beyond to understand exactly what I wanted, helped coordinate the timing and setting perfectly, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. The photos turned out absolutely stunning—she captured every emotion and detail in such a natural, beautiful way that we’ll cherish forever. Becca is not only incredibly talented behind the lens, but also thoughtful, professional, and genuinely invested in making the moment special.

to life. Even without doing engagement photos together beforehand, she nailed it! Our pictures turned out beautiful and we couldn’t have asked for more perfect pictures of our day! She is also so thoughtful during every step of the process, from hand written cards to sneak peek polaroids the night of the wedding. She adds so many personal touches that make you feel so celebrated! On the big day, it felt like having another friend by our side. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how fun and easy she was to work with, making everyone feel comfortable and confident. She deserves all the praise and then some! If you're thinking about booking her, do it :)

e other hand, does not like having his picture taken and questioned why we even needed to hire a photographer. I loved Becca’s photos I saw online and immediately knew I wanted her as our photographer from our very first phone call. Becca was incredible to work with, from all the communication before the wedding, to the day of the wedding itself. She is professional, organized, fun, and extremely talented. She made both of us feel comfortable and we had so much fun. She left us some polaroids that night and sent a ton of sneak peaks only 3 days later. The photos are absolutely stunning! Becca exceeded both of our expectations and we truly cannot recommend her enough.

recommendations, and made sure we were well-prepared for everything. She was always on time, never missed a detail, and on the wedding day, she was completely on top of everything. She made us feel so comfortable during the photo moments. Her calm and easygoing personality helped us relax and truly be ourselves in front of the camera. Because of that, our photos came out beautifully — natural, joyful, and full of emotion. I highly recommend Becca to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. I would love to work with her again in the future for any professional photos!

moment. She captured every emotion and every detail. She’s been super professional from the very beginning with great communication and timely responses! She made our portrait session so fun and her prompts made it so easy for us to feel natural and in our element. She perfectly captured the essence of our inspo pictures, and in moments where she took creative freedom is where her talents shone the most. I highly recommend her - you won’t regret it!

guide helped us make an informed decision on where to actually go to have our shoot. Even the detail that Becca gave us on how to get to our location was extremely thorough. Once we got to the spot, Becca made us feel very comfortable. As people who don't usually have photoshoots, Becca kept us relaxed, and looking and acting our best, so that the final product turned out great. I would highly recommend Becca to anyone looking at doing a photoshoot in the Bay Area!

specific vision for our photos, certain shots I wanted to get, etc. Not only did she listen to those and get as much of that as possible, but she also came up with other shots, angles, and a vision that meshed with ours that truly came to life with ours SO beautifully! The organization around the entire shoot was so wonderful and appreciated. And, while shooting, she was incredibly professional but also made it so fun, easy, and comfortable. I honestly can’t recommend her enough, 100% would work with her again in a heartbeat!!

can’t wait to see the rest!!

ess. She calmed my nerves by letting me know when she arrived at the location and had a positive and happy attitude the whole day. Becca captured our proposal magically and made our (positively) overwhelming moment fun and exciting. Becca was outgoing and energetic, allowing us to not only enjoy the moment, but for her to also be present with us. We can’t wait to see all of the photos and hope to work with her again!

s. Thank you, Rebecca!

raits so fun and easy. The candid photos and landscape photos we got throughout the night are amazing.

uff (a hurricane) was stressful, but Becca made the process simple. She was so helpful, flexible, and reassuring! For our shoot, she worked hard to capture “US” as a couple. Becca went above and beyond planning our shoot, scouting locations, and guiding us through the entire engagement photo process. Our sneak peaks were AMAZING! Becca took our ideas/vision and not only made it a reality, but a dream. We love Napa Valley and these photos will forever be a testament to it AND this sweet season in our lives. My fiancé and I absolutely loved working with Becca. I cannot recommend her enough!!!

l at ease. The proposal itself was a surprise to my (now) fiancé, and Becca made recommendations from her own experiences that made the proposal even more special. Her warm and inviting personality made the entire shoot comfortable and fun, allowing us to be ourselves and enjoy the moment. The photos turned out absolutely stunning, and they perfectly captured the love and excitement we feel. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we highly recommend Becca to anyone looking for a photographer. She’ll bring out the best in you and capture the moment beautifully. Thank you for giving us memories we’ll cherish forever!

aking with several photographers, my husband and I knew Becca was the one. During our initial video call, her thoughtful, detailed questions and quick follow-ups stood out. Although she primarily photographs in Napa, she even offered to scout a location on the peninsula just to make sure everything was perfect for our big day. Her dedication and flexibility made it clear that we could completely trust her to bring our vision to life. Leading up to the wedding, she sent a detailed questionnaire and a customized timeline. She was also open to our ideas—even taking photos with Taco Bell! On the day itself, she kept everything running smoothly, keeping us on time without ever making us feel rushed. We’re both a little camera-shy, but she made the whole experience genuinely fun, like spending time and laughing with an old friend. Becca captured our day beautifully, with every special moment documented. Don’t hesitate to book her—you won’t find anyone better!

atural and fun. My husband and I were both nervous for photos but had full faith that Becca would know how to pose us without looking staged. Once we started working together, I was immediately impressed by how organized she was. She knew all the questions to ask and offered all the best advice to give us the exact photos we wanted from our day. On our wedding day, Becca was quick and efficient. She made taking tons of photos in the hot sun fun and we never felt like we were posing. Our photos are better than we ever imagined. There was not a single photo I could pick apart or dislike. I wanted our photos looked natural and to depict how the day really was. That is exactly what we received. I didn’t know we could photograph this well. We will never be able to thank Becca enough for capturing memories that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We can say with 100% certainty that you won’t regret booking Becca!

ond to make such a special day perfect. She was flexible in her schedule. She made time to scout out the area where I wanted to propose. Provided maps, pictures and videos days prior for me to know just where it would all take place. She was accommodating for special celebrations request after the proposal to make the photo shoot that much better! She was early to arrive on the day and prompt to reply to emails and calls/text during planning. I cant recommend her enough. If you want high quality photos and someone who will help make your special day go as smooth as possible… she’s the one! Not to mention the photos are absolutely incredible. 11/10

y detail-oriented, responsive, and overall just really fun to work with. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and the energy she brought to the day was so appreciated. We had many friends and family members tell us how great she was and she felt more like a friend than a vendor. As for the photos, holy cow, not only did she get absolutely stunning photos, she truly captured the essence of the day. The quality of her work is incredible and we don't know how she managed to get such a variety of shots (we're convinced she may be able to teleport). If you're looking for the best photographer for your event, congratulations because you've found her. Becca, thank you so much for giving us the gift of being able to relive our favorite day through these photos, we can't express our gratitude enough!

e and easy to communicate with, which made planning a breeze (even on short notice!). During our shoot, she matched our energy and made it feel natural. She sent over a few preview prints the next day and they were perfect. Rebecca really nailed it. I’d highly recommend her!

ith. Becca was so professional and the photos came out amazing! The experience left such a good impression on us that when it came time to plan our wedding, we wasted no time booking her even before our venue. Working with Becca has been great. Neither my fiancée or I have ever worked with photographers before, and yet we've felt so at ease with Becca. For our engagement photos, she was communicative and helped us plan what to wear/ prepare in advance. When she arrived to the site (on time of course), she was ready to start shooting. We had a wonderful time and feel Becca brought out the best in us during the entire shoot, creating images that we will cherish forever. We are incredibly grateful for her artistry and dedication to making our day even more memorable. The pictures we’ve seen so far have been nothing short of amazing and we cannot wait for the wedding photos! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who not only takes great photos but is also a blast to work with while still giving great direction!

ots. We found Rebecca by chance online and could not be happier!! She is a total professional throughout the booking process and when we met her in person her demeanor instantly put us at ease. She reacts to your needs and personalities as clients and is constantly keeping an eye out for great shots. We felt Iike we were just hanging out for an hour rather than doing a photo shoot. We were amazed at the photos that she was able to capture for us after just having met us minutes before. Definitely work with Rebecca if you have the chance you will not be disappointed!!!!

le! Her communication style was thorough and timely - she made herself available to answer all questions leading up to our wedding and always responded promptly via email and text! Both my husband and I were a little nervous for photos because neither one of us is comfortable in front of the camera, but her positive attitude and coaching made the experience really enjoyable! Overall, she we feel like she really listened to what we wanted, but also provided great suggestions based on her expertise! We're so happy with the photos and the memories she helped capture from our wedding!!

s feel so comfortable in front of the camera and is just beyond pleasant to work with. We are so grateful she was able to capture all the incredible moments of our special day - she is an absolute joy and so talented!

at Muir Woods. I started googling photographers in the area and when I came across Rebecca's photography page, I instantly fell in love with her work and the energy that her work captured in each photo. So I reached out to her and shortly afterwards, we set up a skype call to meet and discuss details and then a few weeks later we were in CA having our photoshoot. She was excellent at communication on making sure to check in with us before and after the photoshoot, letting us know if we needed anything beforehand, and more. Our experience with her was perfect. I'm in love with the preview pictures we got back so far and can't wait to see the rest of the album! If you are in the CA area, I HIGHLY recommend booking a session with Rebecca!! She is an absolutely sweetheart and I loved how she brought so much joy and laughter into our photo session. It was an experience we'll never forget!

on scouting before our session to make sure the vision I had came to life! Go book her!!!

awkwardness go away! Becca is very organized and on top of everything. She has been such a big help in my wedding planning process because she knows local vendors, can give great recommendations, and provides helpful resources. She's available as a resource with any questions you may have, no matter how random. Thank you, Becca!

tely surprised that she said we would have a "sneak peak" in the next day or so and then the full gallery in a couple weeks. The sneak peak was everything I could have hoped for and I could barely wait for the full gallery. Rebecca's what to wear/bring guide really helped and she was super responsive if i had any questions before our shoot. Before our shoot we shared some inspiration shots from Pinterest and got straight to work. I loved that Rebecca knew what time of day would be best for our beach photo shoot and just in case we had some bad weather gave me options for rescheduling. 10/10 would recommend as the best photographer in the Bay Area.

tivity, and attention to detail truly stood out. Planning and Communication: Becca took the time to understand our story and vision. She asked thoughtful questions about our relationship, the proposal location, and our preferences. Her communication was prompt and clear, which made the planning process seamless. The Proposal Moment: Becca’s discreet presence during the proposal was remarkable. She captured every emotion—the nervous anticipation, the surprise, and the sheer joy—as I got down on one knee. Her ability to blend into the surroundings allowed us to focus on the moment without feeling self-conscious. The Post-Proposal Session: After the proposal, we had a couple’s photoshoot. Becca’s direction was gentle and encouraging. She made us feel comfortable, and it translated beautifully into the photos. The candid shots captured our genuine laughter and love. The Final Photos: Becca’s editing skills are top-notch. The gallery she delivered was a mix of candid moments and stunning portraits. The colors were vibrant and we were thrilled with the variety of shots she provided. In summary, Becca’s photography is a blend of artistry and authenticity. She not only documented our special moment but also created timeless memories that we’ll cherish forever. If you’re looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond, Becca is the one. Thank you, Becca, for making our proposal unforgettable!

y far. Becca is the full package – she’s not only extremely talented; she’s efficient and professional; and an absolute joy of a person! Becca made our whole experience so comfortable from our first communications to the day of the wedding. We were impressed at how streamlined her process is – it completely removed any anxieties from our end. We felt so confident in her hands and now we couldn’t be happier with our photos. She captured the day so perfectly, we’ll be able to enjoy the memories for decades to come!

even helped with the surprise too!😄 the day went perfect and I would 100% recommend to use becca as your photographer when you need amazing shots while your in the Napa area!

the exact look we wanted, and she reviewed all of them, and made sure we were on the same page with the look and feel. She answered any and all questions we had leading up to the day and was super precise with the timeline, and really gave us peace of mind. Working with her took loads of pressure off me, my now husband, and our families because she thought of everything without us even having to ask. She arrived promptly on the day of the wedding, and was professional and friendly. She brought a lot of fun , positive energy to the day without being distracting in any way. She made sure to get every shot we hoped for and others I didn’t even know to hope for. Just couldn’t have been better from start to finish!! In case you couldn’t tell from the rest of the review I highly highly recommend booking her!

s a couple, as well as any combination of shots with your new spouse, family, and friends, Becca is the right photographer for you. We initially came across Becca after scrolling through her Instagram. After meeting with her, we could immediately tell that she would be a great fit for our wedding based on her high energy, can-do attitude, and eagerness to connect with our vision. Throughout the planning process, she was incredibly organized and collaborative to ensure that we would get all the photos that we had envisioned, along with some fun ideas she had (hello, champagne popping under twinkle lights!) that aligned perfectly with the vibe of our big day. Her positivity and general energy were exactly what we needed the day of the wedding - lightheartedly not putting up with nonsense from family and sticking to our well thought out timeline so that we could get to spend as much time as possible together and with our family and friends. Not only were our final photos BEAUTIFUL, but she made the entire process stress-free and fun. She is truly a dream to work with.

f us are from Singapore and we wanted to take pretty pictures in Napa Valley when we were visiting in the Spring of 2023 to display on our wedding day. After researching countless of photographers who could shoot in the Bay Area, we finally decided on Becca because we loved her portfolio and her vibes as a photographer (lively and lighthearted!). From the onset, Becca kept an open line of communication with us even though we were halfway across the world from her! She provided us with her very handy guidebook and even allowed us to consult with her over Zoom and WhatsApp as and when we needed to regarding suitable locations and outfits for the kind of photos we wanted. She was even kind enough to send us recommendations for general things to do/see around Napa Valley considering it was our first time there! During the shoot, Becca made us feel immediately comfortable in front of the camera. Her directions were clear and she was overall such a joy to be around. The pictures came out beautifully and we are very happy that we went with Becca! Choose Becca, y’all, you won’t regret it!

ade sure everything was set before we got there. I thought it would be difficult planning this from the other side of the country but she truly made it an amazing experience. She captured memories that will last a lifetime. Will definitely be flying her to our wedding wherever that might be!! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer for these special occasions! We are grateful to have found her.

and exceed our expectations! Our pictures are BETTER than we could have hoped for, and our friends and family loved working with her on our wedding day. Becca is so professional, fun, and an amazing artist. It was raining all week leading up to our day, and she came out the day before to scope out lighting and potential spots to shoot, and she had umbrellas for us just-in-case. Her process made it so easy and stress free for us, and if we could only hire one vendor again, it would be her in a heartbeat!

e still being flexible enough to adapt to changes on the fly, and she showed up to our wedding having never met us in person or been to our venue and was an absolute professional who made the entire picture process so easy and fun. Above all things though, you're hiring your photographer for the photos, and Becca's photography is - to steal the word I've seen most often since we started sharing our pictures with family and friends - stunning. She has the eye, her editing is fantastic, and the final product is something you will be absolutely thrilled with. 10/10 would recommend!

es incredible photos. We will cherish those pictures forever!

ou kept us so excited when everything seemed so stressful through great communication, a suggested itinerary, and little surprises along the way. It was truly a treat working with you. THANK YOU!!!

, but she was so fun, friendly, and quickly put our worries to rest. We were at the cold and windy beach, so I wasn't sure how our pictures would turn out but we were completely blown away by our gallery. We booked with Becca because of her gorgeous wide sweeping shots and were so happy with our pictures! We had the best experience ever, we can't stop looking at and printing our pictures, and are so excited to have her capture our wedding. I can't recommend her enough!

ent shoot that showed our true personalities and love for each other. Her style is absolutely stunning and everyone I have shown the photos to have been amazing. I am so excited to have her shoot our upcoming wedding! She is definitely worth the investment.

ighly recommend going with her for your photos!!

lutely loved working with Becca. From the moment we first met over zoom through the planning process to the day of, I was so impressed with her vision, thoroughness, attention to detail, and fun loving nature. To top it all off, Becca is an incredibly talented photographer and so much fun to be around. Everyone at the wedding commented on her amazing ability to keep things moving, remember names, and capture all the special moments. We just got our sneak peek and are so thrilled with our photos and how Becca captured our special day! These photos will be cherished for years to come. 10/10 recommend hiring Becca to capture your special day…and your after party too!
