THANK YOU, DAVE AND HAILEY!
We were blessed to find The Brews right after we got engaged, so we chose to add engagement photos when booking our wedding with them. I'm so glad we did. It was a great way to get to know them, so there was zero awkwardness on our big day.
On our wedding day, Dave and Hailey made us feel so at ease. They perfectly orchestrated our first look, worked closely with our videographer, and grabbed us to take pictures at sunset. The thing I most cherish is how well they captured our bright, kooky love in photos. They captured moments in the kinds of photos that brides dream of.
I am so beyond grateful to have found and worked with The Brews!

As a photographer myself the very first thing I thought about when I got engaged was "WHO IS GOING TO SHOOT MY WEDDING?" Then I found The Brews! I booked them even before I booked my venue and I am so happy I did!
They did our engagement shoot first at Scripps Pier in La Jolla and the photos turned out amazing! Shooting with Hailey and David was just like hanging out with a best friend. They made my husband feel comfortable in front of the camera (which is hard to do) and they gave out the perfect amount of instructions to make us feel like we were rockstars in front of their lens. We adore the photos and the overall vibe that they brought to our wedding day.
The Brews photography is hands down worth the investment and more!!

We couldn't be more thrilled with our wedding photos and our overall experience with The Brews Photography. From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless thanks to Hailey’s impeccable planning and communication. She made sure every detail was thought out in advance and offered fantastic suggestions for both our engagement session and wedding day. On our big day they captured every special moment without missing a beat. Their expertise and communication ensured that we could relax and fully enjoy our day, knowing they were capturing it all perfectly. We are incredibly thankful to Hailey and David for helping make our special day unforgettable. Highly recommend!

We LOVED working with THE BREWS PHOTOGRAPHY! They are the most down to earth yet, straight to the point people. They helped make the whole day run smoothly. The timeline they created for photography was a huge help so we had an idea of how the day would flow. They were flexible with any hiccups and even our guests raved about them.
Our experience with them on our wedding day was amazing. Couldn’t have asked for better photographers, worth every cent and more!

Hailey and David of The Brews Photography are some of the most fun and talented people I have ever worked with! The way they approach photography makes it feel fun and carefree. But, the results are timeless, with a blend of modern and traditional. I am obsessed! They take the classic photos and their editorial approach is stunning! Their attention to detail is impeccable.
It was definitely worth the investment and I am beyond happy we choose them as our wedding photographers. The photos are memories we will cherish forever

Even before my husband and I got engaged, we knew that the first vendor we wanted to select was going to be our photographer. We spent more time researching photographers than any other vendor and had really set the bar high for what we wanted.
When we found The Brews Photography on The Knot we instantly knew we had found our photographers.
Neither of us have had professional photos done before, and we were both a little nervous to say the least, but Hailey and David made the process easy and fun! They were able to give us easy prompts that created such a candid feel that both my husband and I even forgot we were taking pictures at one point. They have amazing communication and a friendly demeanor about them. It felt like we were just doing photos with close friends even though we had just met that day lol.
Looking back it couldn’t have been a better experience for us and we love love love how our photos turned out! We want to thank you Hailey and David again for capturing our love story so perfectly.

David and Hailey from The Brews Photography were such a dream to work with!
When I was looking for a photographer, I was a little overwhelmed with all the planning. After speaking with Hailey she immediately made me feel less stressed about planning the photography part of our wedding . She was able to answer every question I had for her and she instantly put me at ease. She was easy to communicate with and helped us pick the perfect location, based on her experience for our engagement shoot.
When it came to the wedding day, David and Hailey worked like a true team. David photographed my husband and his groomsmen and Hailey stayed with myself and my bridesmaids. They both were incredibly professional, attentive, friendly and time conscious about the whole days events.
Anyone would be lucky to have The Brews as their wedding photographers!

They are easy to be around, creative, and really on top of it throughout the whole day. They had great communication when it came to giving directions for different poses and provided tons of positive feedback for me and my husband which really put us at ease.
I had a ton of friends and family who mentioned how great they were throughout the day, which made me happy we chose them to be our photographers.

There are truly just not enough words for how grateful we are for Hailey and David.
We spent a long time trying to find the perfect wedding photographer and the minute we spoke to Hailey on the phone we knew we had found the one with The Brews Photography. Hailey made the whole process from start to finish easy. She was always available to respond to emails, phone calls, and answer any questions.
We are beyond happy with how beautiful our engagement and wedding photos turned out! Just the overall experience was perfect and truly exceptional. Hailey and David are fun to be around and make you feel really comfortable in front of the camera. There was no awkward moments when taking photos with them. We got our entire wedding album edited and delivered on time.
We will be cherishing our wedding photos for the rest of our lives!!!

I highly recommend The Brews Photography to anyone looking for their wedding day photographers! They made every aspect of the process as easy as possible.
I sent a ton of emails before my wedding asking questions and getting their advice. Hailey always answered promptly and was great at communicating with me.
My husband and I had never taken professional pictures before and we were a little nervous, but Hailey and David made the whole experience easy for us! We both agreed on our honeymoon that we actually had a lot of fun taking all of our photos and want to hire them for a 1 year anniversary shoot. Also, the finished product of all our wedding photos are even better than I could have imagined.
We will definitely be hiring The Brews Photography again and recommending them to all our friends getting married.

The best decision we made for our wedding day! We absolutely love our photos and how they showcase the beauty of our wedding. We knew that we wanted photographers that were fun and relaxed, but also able to give us direction about how to pose for photos. We were not totally sure what to expect but our engagement session before the wedding totally put us at ease. Hailey walked us through every part of the shoot. After some walking photos, dips, spins, and other cues we felt at ease. Eventually each pose felt more natural than the one before. Doing the engagement shoot made us feel like pros on our wedding day and the end result was better than we could have imagined! We are so happy that we chose to book The Brews Photography because the photos they captured were amazing, the colors and beauty reflected our wedding day perfectly. Don’t hesitate to hire them!

The Brews Photography is the absolute BEST wedding photography team in Southern California! I spent weeks looking for photographers with a light airy authentic and timeless style. I finally came across The Brews and was instantly obsessed with their work. Hailey and David were AMAZING on the wedding day. They made the whole day run so smooth and stress free. They were so easy going and fun that it felt as if they were our own friends. We absolutely love our photos and how they came out! We would 100% recommend them to anyone.

We cannot say enough about these two! We absolutely LOVE The Brews! They were the first vendors that we booked for our wedding day. They had multiple wedding packages for us to choose from and we booked their 8 hour wedding collection - which was PERFECT!! They had time to capture all of the special pre/ceremony getting ready photos all the way up until dancing at the end of the night, including our first look:) They made us feel super comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. It felt like we were taking photos with friends and the photos turned out STUNNING!! We highly recommend booking The Brews Photography for your wedding day!! It was one of the best decisions we made!

The Brews were absolutely amazing! From the beginning, we had clear communication, great response time and positivity. You know when you get a great vibe on someone and know they are the perfect fit? That was them for our wedding. They sent out a questionnaire of what we wanted them to capture. They showed up the day of the wedding ready to go. Their attention to detail was amazing and they made sure to capture everything we wanted. I was amazed and still in awe of the pictures they took. Things I didn’t even think to capture, they did. The colors were perfection and I am beyond happy! I am so grateful they were there to capture our most special day! Thank you Brews for giving us these lifetime memories for us to cherish!

They even went to the venue beforehand to scout out the best photo spots! On the day of, they were fantastic to work with.

If you're looking for top quality wedding photographers, Hailey & David are it! After discovering The Brews Photography on Instagram I reached out in hopes of a collaboration. The communication was swift, pleasant, and easy going. Their photography style is so dreamy and authentic you can honestly feel love in your heart when looking at their images. A seriously dynamic husband and wife duo, which is super important when shooting a wedding. They're great at directing poses that feel natural, which is crucial for weddings since most couples are not trained models and often feel awkward posing. I will definitely be working with Hailey & David again and highly recommend them to couples looking for engagement and wedding photos. Any bride or groom would be lucky to have them photograph their special day!

Wow. Hailey and David were an absolute pleasure to work with, and the photos they took came out absolutely stunning! They are such a kind, genuine, and authentic couple who truly enhanced our wedding just by being there. They made the photo shoots so easy - all we had to do was stand there and pose, and now we feel like models with the way the photos turned out! We will be recommending them to all of our friends (and literally anyone we meet who is planning a wedding).
If your wedding day is anything like ours, you'll be pulled in 20 different directions at once all day long while everything flies by, and you'll want some amazing photos to help you relive the best day of your life and remember all the tiny, special moments that made the whole thing worth it. The Brews did an incredible job of capturing those moments from multiple angles, because they're both there taking photos. Seriously, save yourselves some time and quit shopping around. Just book these two and enjoy the rest of your planning!

I can't say enough good things about The Brews Photography! They are such a pleasure to work with right from the start!
During planning, I had multiple questions about the big day. Hailey and David were always available to chat and answer any question that I had. It was so great to interact with a business that truly cares about the people they service.
Now on to the big day! David and Hailey were absolutely amazing! They made us feel so comfortable and at ease. They always seemed to be in the perfect spot capturing photos and multiple guests at the wedding raved about how great they were. We also wanted to take some off site photos on the beach for our first look. David and Hailey had already scouted the location and knew exactly where to go for the best photos and lighting. This made the day so much easier and helped us save on time so we could get back to our guests!
After the wedding we got our photos and were blown away! Such beautiful photos and ones we will treasure forever!
We would 100% recommend The Brews Photography to anyone who's looking for an amazing wedding photographer! Thank you Hailey and David for making our day so magical from the start to the end:)

What can I say... The Brews (David and Hailey) are absolutely amazing! My husband and I did an anniversary shoot with them and the photos exceeded all my expectations. They're so beautiful and exactly what I wanted. Not only were the photos gorgeous but they also made the whole process care free and fun. My husband who normally doesn't like having his photos taken even admitted how at ease he felt. They truly are amazing people and take breathtaking pictures. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again for our anniversary and have even recommended them to a friend for her upcoming wedding! They're the best!
