Veil + Vow exists for the parts of a wedding day that usually live only in memory, the getting ready laughter, the reactions, the dance floor at full tilt. Krista Alexis shoots candid first, with an eye for the aesthetic and a preference for footage that will still feel timeless years from now rather than tied to a trend.

She works alongside your photographer, videographer, and planner rather than around them, with packages running six to ten hours of coverage, enough to follow the day from its quiet start to its loud finish. Collections sit between $1,500 and $2,500.

Based in Sonoma, she serves wine country weddings and travels well beyond it. For couples who want luxury coverage without a production feel, this is the quiet extra set of hands worth having.
