The Booth Bus - Photo Booth

We’re thrilled to highlight a recent collaboration at the beautiful Camp Carmel wedding with none other than The Booth Bus. This vintage VW bus-turned-photo booth stole the spotlight and gave guests an unforgettable experience.

The charm of The Booth Bus lies in its perfect mix of retro nostalgia and modern fun. Guests lined up all night to snap creative photos inside the vintage bus, making it more than just a photo booth — it was a centerpiece of the celebration. The laughter, the keepsake prints, and the energy it brought helped create memories couples and their loved ones will treasure.

As Monterey Photography, we love working with talented vendors who share our passion for elevating weddings into experiences. The Booth Bus in Carmel Valley delivered that and more with their professionalism and creativity.

We’re grateful for the chance to team up with them for this Camp Carmel wedding and can’t wait to capture more celebrations like this one.

Second Shooter - Monterey Photography

When it comes to wedding photography, having a second shooter can make all the difference. While one photographer focuses on the key moments, a second shooter provides additional angles, perspectives, and candid moments that might otherwise be missed. Together, this coverage creates a fuller, more complete story of your wedding day. At one wedding, the groom requested that the primary photographer stay with him at the starting location. With family gathered and traditional activities unfolding, it was important to honor those moments. Because of that, the second shooter became essential — capturing the bride’s preparations and candid details happening elsewhere. Without a second shooter, those images simply would not exist. An additional instance where a second shooter proves invaluable is during the reception for capturing layout and detail shots. While I was fully engaged in photographing the couple and the wedding party, I found myself unable to cover the cocktail hour due...
