Orange County Wedding Photography & Videography
One team. One vision. Every moment preserved.
300+ weddings documented · 4.9 stars · WeddingWire Couples' Choice
Most couples spend months curating every detail of their wedding day. Then they hand it off to two separate vendors who have never worked together, communicate differently, and show up with competing creative visions.
There's a better way.
When your photography and video team is the same team — people who have worked together for years, share a creative language, and move through your day as a single unit — everything changes. The coordination is seamless. The visual story is cohesive. And you spend your day actually present instead of managing vendors.
That's what One Story Weddings was built to do.
What Couples Say
"Gary and the entire One Story Weddings team were absolutely incredible. They were professional, attentive, and extremely knowledgeable. They really took the time to understand our vision and brought it to life even better than we imagined. Having a single team for both photo and video made our day so much simpler." — Jordie, Orange County
"We hired One Story Weddings for videography and they exceeded all of our expectations. On our wedding day they made us feel so comfortable and gave us direction, which we needed and appreciated. And for the final video — all we can say is wow. They captured the day so beautifully and we are so thankful we will have the footage from the best day of our lives to relive over and over again." — Mel, Orange County
"From the very beginning they made sure to make us feel special and accommodated every request we had. They reached out multiple times beforehand and made us feel extremely prepared for our special day. The entire team was polite, professional and personable." — Kathryn, Orange County
Why One Team Changes Everything
A single creative vision across every deliverable. Your photos and films belong together — matching tones, consistent light handling, and a narrative that flows across both. When two separate vendors shoot your wedding the results often feel like two different weddings. With One Story everything is cohesive from the first frame to the final film.
No competing priorities on your wedding day. Two separate vendors means two people making independent decisions about positioning, timing, and when to ask for your attention. A unified team coordinates internally so you never feel pulled in two directions or overwhelmed by cameras.
One point of contact for everything. One contract, one planning process, one timeline conversation, one team coordinating with your planner. Simpler before the wedding means calmer on the wedding day.
Timeline management built in. We manage your day proactively — communicating with your planner, anticipating transitions, and making up time when things run behind. You stay present. We handle the logistics.
Up to 10% savings when you bundle. Booking photography and videography together with One Story saves you up to 10% compared to booking each service separately — plus you eliminate the coordination cost of managing two vendor relationships.

Gary, Jake & Jonah
One Story Weddings was founded in 2017 and is based in Lake Forest, CA. Gary oversees our photography team — directing and shooting alongside photographers who have been part of the One Story family since the early days. Jake leads our cinematography team with the same continuity. Jonah runs post-production, ensuring every gallery and film that leaves our studio meets an uncompromising standard.
