Zoom Theory Photography

Zoom Theory is the best way to go in photography!!! We took our engagement pictures and the result was amazing! After seeing our engagement pictures we knew we didn't have anything to worry about for our wedding Photography. Meredith and her assistant Jenny where amazing! They were in time, easygoing and very accommodating! They even helped me stay calmed during stressful moments and more so helped me get into my second dress! Our wedding portraits came out gorgeous and they are AMAZING!!! These women work very hard, non stop and what is best is they don't interfere with the flow of events. We have decided to keep Zoom Theory as our official photographers!!! Thank You Meredith and Amanda for such outstanding art work! Much love, Jessica and Felipe

Using zoomtheory photography to shoot my wedding was the best decision I ever made!

Totally professional and great service. We highly recommend this company to anyone looking for wedding photography.

Love their work!! Looking at these pictures makes me so happy. All the angles they were able to get, and the spontaneous moments they didn't miss is just wonderful. All the pictures just flow. And I have to say the graphic design on some of the pictures look like art work. I look forward to displaying my artistic photography all around our new place for everyone to see.

Meredith Gradishar was wonderful. This was our vow renewal ceremony to celebrate our 10th year anniversary. Compared to our previous photographer for the wedding, Meredith was a joy to work with; she was responsive and prompt to emails, she had excellent communication skills and made me feel at ease, and her photographs were absolutely stunning. In addition, she responded with a quick turn around for negatives and photos. I would highly recommend Zoom Theory Photography as they are very personable. In fact, the guests at our vow renewal ceremony were so thrilled with her, that my sister still gushes about and corresponds with Meredith on Instagram!

Meredith was a pleasure to work with. She was really quick in responding to emails and work with our schedule. Meredith was really positive with our needs with 400 guests. I love my pictures.

Meredith and Zoom Theory Photography were absolutely everything we could hope for and more. Meredith was a wonderful person to work with from the first time I spoke to her on the phone to present time. She is very easy and fun to work with and has amazing photos to show for it. We as well as our family and friends adored her and believe that her photos are pieces of art work that go above and beyond normal photography. Nate and I are 100% satisfied with having chosen Meredith as our Wedding photographer. She will be the first person to come in mind for pictures in the future and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer. Thank you so very much Meredith, you captured our wedding perfectly!!!

Meredith with Zoom Theory blew our minds with her amazing talent!!! Not only does she take absolutely amazing shots, but she is a pleasure to work with. She delivered on promises ahead of schedule and she was very flexible during the planning process. Her attention to detail, passion, and professionalism were unmatched. She captured every beautiful and romantic moment and took it beyond anything we could have dreamed of! Even the candid photos of our wedding left our friends and relatives breathless! She has an amazing gift to capture moments in the most artistic and creative ways. We are forever thankful for Meredith and we will recommend her to all our friends and family!!

If you're reading this you know the search for "the right" wedding photographer can be both intimidating and daunting. After tons of research, looking at an endless series of websites, our search led us to Zoom Theory. Not only were the photos Meredith showed us amazing, but she and her team just seemed to "get it" if that makes sense. Everyone at Zoom was great: on time, reasonably priced, and fun to have around. If a picture's worth a thousand words, here's one of our photos:

So stop searching, give 'em a call, and tell 'em Willie and Lori sent you!

I have been in love with zoom theory's work since I first met with Meredith and am very pleased with our pics. Unlike some of my friends, I am content that she got all of the photo shots that I could have ever dreamed of, so not one moment of our special day was missed! I love their creative style, and I feel that their photography complemented our wedding vision.
Thanks!

Meredith was great to work with and the end product was spectacular. Couldn't be happier.

I would definately give Zoom Theory 5 stars or even 10 stars!
Meredith and Amanda are such great professionals.

From the moment I called Meredith to ask questions and to make an appointment, up to my wedding day, Zoom Theory was so enthusiastic and lovely. Meredith and her assistant worked so hard and didn't miss a thing on my
wedding day. Pictures are amazing since Amanda does a great job taking care of each and single photo. Their characters made me be comfortable and natural when taking photos.

Take a look at their website and if you choose them, you won't regret it for sure! Love them!!

Zoom Theory is the best! Beautiful and unique pictures! Their photographers are very creative and easy to work with. They were very flexible with the schedule as the day went along. Thank you so much!

My husband and I were married at The Shade Hotel on 9/15. We are a Chicago couple and spent the year planning our wedding from out of town. I am still blown away at the ease of the entire process and how wonderful it was working with Meredith. Meredith and her team are top notch and are true professionals- I didn't have to worry about a single thing! Even guests at our wedding commented on how great our photographer was. Meredith and her team are incredible people and the portraits are even better than I could have ever imagined! I highly recommend Zoom Theory!

Zoom Theory photography....GOD WHERE DO I START!!! This was probably the best thing I invested in for my wedding and also a friendship to last. Meredith and Amanda from day 1 were so pleasant and flexible to work with. From them listening to my vision and getting it all down to the second of each day. To them asking and suggesting without pressuring or pushing their vision on me and my husband. I love how they enjoyed Maine and everyone at our wedding, treated it like family and not just a job. Meredith making SURE I ate before the ceremony and assuring all was running smoothly.

I appreciate how they made everyone feel so comfortable and at ease. I would recommend them to ANYONE which I actually already did for another wedding taking place in Maine :) Ladies look out for a June 2013 wedding call :)

I love you and thank you so much for capturing one of the most important days of our lives...the day we became one.

Love
Natasha, Tim, Biggie and Maximus

Meredith and her staff are amazing! They captured our wedding better than I could have ever hoped for. Professional, prompt, kind, organized, and extremely attentive! We are so happy with our pictures and look forward to working with zoom theory in other milestone events in our lives.

Meredith and her team at ZoomTheory are in a league all on their own when it comes to the photography service they provide!
I had the pleasure of working with Meredith for my wedding last month and can say, without a doubt, that having her there, capturing the most important day of my life (so far), was the best decision we made while planning our wedding.
She is organized, efficient, BRILLIANT, professional, friendly, accommodating, and detail oriented without being aggressive or anal. She made the entire day, and our tight schedule, simply EASY!
I searched and searched to find the right photographer (knowing that this was one of the most critical things I HAD to get right) - one that was within our budget that would also provide us with the service we wanted and photos that we would be proud of and BOY did she deliver. Most photographers (that I spoke with) got very strict and specific with their “process” and their “craft” and their “packages” (which I get) … but, this was my day, and I want to make sure that what I wanted, I would get. Never once did Meredith tell me “no” or that they “couldn’t do that”. She just gets it!
She was also very sweet and patient with our families – which I really appreciated!
Not only did she capture EVERY detail that was important to me at the wedding (and we had a lot of them) but the final pictures are just STUNNING!
I was in 3 weddings this year and attended 4 others and the feedback from each of the brides was that they weren’t happy with their photos. Well – NOT ME! HAHA. Everyone agrees that my pictures were the BEST and they wished they had had a photographer like Meredith.
Zoom Theory captured my wedding better than I could have ever expected and not only do I recommend them with the utmost confidence, but this group will be my family’s photographer...

Meredith and her staff were awesome. They made capturing our wedding day seem effortless. We found them from my sister's wedding and I am sure that all of our family will be using zoom theory for all our profession photography needs. We loved Meredith and her staff so much that we are setting aside money each year to get pictures done with zoom theory. We just can't say enough about how great of an experience my wife and I had with zoom theory. I hope that more people look up Meredith and zoom theory for all their photography needs. They truly are the best there is.

Meredith and her team at Zoom Photography were amazing! She has such a great, friendly personality, which made it very comfortable for us to work with her. She really listens to what is important to you and makes it happen with her own unique, artistic twist. Bottom line: she gets the job done and she does it well! I would recommend her to anyone and plan on using her services again in the future for any other big events i.e. pregnancy, first baby, etc.

Meredith and Amanda at Zoom Theory are the most amazing photography combo a girl could ask for. They are so easy to work with and make you feel beautiful by capturing every moment! I couldn't have asked for anyone better.

One visit to zoomtheory and we were hooked! Not only is the quaint office easy to get to, but it is comfortable and well outfitted with tons of portfolio work. Meredith was easy to work with and always available if I had any questions. Being a first time bride I really had no idea what to expect and our expectations were surpassed. I would recommend this company to anyone looking for portraits. During a fast paced wedding you tend to forget some of the details whether it be ambiance, decor, or food by having my zoomtheory team there we were able to relive the evening and put the pieces all together. Thank you again for being so flexible with our timing and being knowledgeable to get some of our unique pier shots along with ALL of the others!

Dear future brides,
Our wedding took place in Hungary. After researching many Hungarian photographers, we decided to take another route because we were not fully satisfied with their work. I have seen Zoom Theory's work at many other occasions like our engagement session. My husband and I decided to ask if they would be willing to travel to Hungary to shoot our wedding. They said yes and made me the happiest bride knowing my pictures will be fantastic. We had our wedding in the Castle in Buda and Meredith and Amanda did an amazing job. They were able to coordinate the photo shoot with non- english speaking relatives. They were patient, and no matter how hot it was, and it was very hot and humid, the girls did everything to capture the best pictures possible. We received over 1300 pictures within 2 weeks after our wedding on a hard drive. What a professional job! Up to this day when I look at my pictures, I still get tears in my eyes. I can't say enough good things about them! Thank you for being part of our wedding!

Meredith is phenomenal - positive, energetic, fun, flexible and a complete pro. Her personality instantly puts you at ease, which is so important for the pictures to look natural and relaxed. She’s assertive in a lovable way and made the whole experience run smoothly. I sincerely can’t say enough great things about her. The pictures themselves were top notch - the perfect balance of artistic and natural. They completely exceeded my expectations – I wouldn’t think twice before highly recommending them to anyone or using them again!

Meredith and Amanda are a one of a kind team!!! Their quality of work is like no other photographer around. In 2010, I hired Zoom Theory to take photos for my musical projects and the photos came out better than I could have ever imagined. So as soon as I got engaged I knew I wanted Zoom Theory to do my wedding and I tried to book as soon as possible. Working with Meredith was a dream and she even helped me find a great florist that made my wedding perfect in so many ways.

On the wedding day, they arrived early and were very organized. Amidst the slight chaos around me, Meredith helped me remain calm. She was so helpful that day.

When it came to after the wedding they gave me an expected date that the photos would be done and they were done before that date. These ladies are hard workers and do a great job. They bring a custom vitality to every photo they process thus making every photo/moment special and memorable. Meredith is a seasoned and adaptable photographer that pays immense amount of attention to detail and captures that moments that most people don't even notice.

All in all I would recommend them to anyone!!! I would trust Zoom Theory with my first born child!!!

Love, love, love Zoom Theory! Meredith is awesome!

My husband and I are very happy with their job at our wedding! Meredith was super friendly, understanding of our needs, and extremely professional from beginning to end. The pictures are amazing! We loved everything about Zoom Theory and I would definitely recommend them to all my friends and family if they ever need their special pictures taken.

A friend of ours had Zoom Theory Photography do her and her husband's wedding and her pictures were beautiful. Once I started planning our wedding I had my heart set on having Zoom Theory photograph ours. Not only did our pictures come out as amazing a I had hoped, I was more than pleased with the professionalism and promptness from the ladies at Zoom Theory. I met with Meredith and discussed the photography plans in detail, and she made sure that everything we discussed was taken care of at the wedding. Amanda and I had been in contact through email and she was extremely helpful, kind, and responsive to all my inquiries. We have received nonstop compliments on our photos from family and friends.

Now that the wedding has come and gone all we have is our memories and these beautiful photos thanks to Zoom Theory Photography!!

Our wedding was perfect! We were very lucky to have Meredith and Amanda document it. Zoom Theory was the best investment we made.

They were super enthusiastic and helpful from the first meeting. Meredith always made herself available for engagement shoots and pre-wedding meetings. My groom and I both really liked her style and the quality of pictures were phenomenal!!

We just got our wedding pictures back and each one makes me smile.

I hear horror stories from both my sister-in-laws about their photographers and pictures, one still has no books after six years, and I am so glad that we had Zoom Theory. There is a reason every one gives them a positive review is they are awesome.

If you want a worry free wedding then I fully recommend Zoom Theory!!

Thank you to Amanda, Meredith, and Jenny of Zoom Theory for giving us the most amazing wedding photos. You are a truly talented bunch and we are so thankful we were able to find you. You went above and beyond for us and we are so in love with all of our photos. Thanks for the great idea of the Long Beach Aquarium for our engagement session and for making our wedding day relaxing and fun. We have had so many compliments on our pictures. What we love most about our pictures is how unique and awesome they are. You've given us the best gift so thank you thank you thank you!

Nate and Marcille

I really dont know how to express how AMAZING Zoom Theory is...We loved how their creative talent helped to capture the joy of our wedding.  It will always be easy to remember the fun and happiness our friends and family experienced on that day. Everyone felt they fit in so well with the guests, no obnoxious cut ins or anything like it. Multiple guests have asked who they were because so professional!  We enjoyed Meredith and Katie share the ceremony and reception with us, and totally appreciate how they went above and beyond to ensure that all the little details were taken care of (like finding missing favors and finding the missing photo booth guy). And then post-wedding Amanda was a dream to work with, she was so fast getting our proofs to us and the look is so so cool! Plus even when I thought they couldn't get any cooler, the packaging was top notch, a giant cherry on top! I could go on and on about Zoom Theory, but the bottom line is I would absolutely recommend them to friends and I hope we can work with them again, maybe a family shoot in a couple years! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! k&d

We all know that planning a wedding is nerve-racking to say the least and looking for the right photographer to capture one of the most important moments in your life is a huge part of the stress. We had met with a few photographers prior to meeting with Meredith at Zoom Theory and all of them had the same format, and pitch for weddings. When walked into Meredith's office it had a different feel to it and after five minutes of us meeting with her we felt so at ease. Meredith's personality, professionalism and patience in our introduction meeting let us know we had found our photographer. Before the meeting was over she had given us such creative suggestions incorporating both of our personalities for our engagement photos that we booked with her immediately. We just got our engagement photos from her and could not be more pleased! The weather was not looking like it was going to hold up for us, but Meredith knew exactly how to take that negative and turn it into a positive. With that said, she made a cloudy about to rain day become a gorgeous day! Thank you Meredith for making our experience a stress-free one! Cannot wait for the wedding and the memories you will capture for us!

Meredith and her team are top notch. They are true artists and that shows from the actual shooting of the pictures all the way to the finishing of the images. Not is Zoom Theory creative, but they are professional and courteous. My family was raving about Meredith during and after the wedding She staged the perfect shots, rallied appropriate family members all while capturing candid photos as well! I am beyond thrilled with Zoom Theory and the positive response from my guests has been pouring in based on what they see from our wedding photos thus far.

I had the most wonderful experience here getting an estimate for my wedding photography. Zoom Photography is not only dedicated to creating the most beautiful photos for your special day with the best Professionals out there but knows how to make you feel special too.
I can't say enough good things about Zoom Photography and the staff. My husband and I were on a tight budget. They listened to my ideas, helped us figure out the best plan possible and gave us a wedding day that was unforgettable. I would recommend them to anyone. They were easy to work with, friendly, no hassle and professional. They also have amazing, artistic ideas for any occasion and any budget. I give them an A++.

We loved working with Zoomtheory. We looked at about 3 other photographers and Meredith was the first one we met with. After meeting with the other 3, we decided to go with Zoomtheory. We loved their unique photos and artistic style. Their prices were really reasonable as well. They were also flexible working with us and were totally willing to take our giant request list of a million variations of portraits with the family. Meredith and her assistant did an amazing job at the wedding. They seemed invisible at appropriate times and when needed Meredith was amazing at corralling the children and about 20 partially drunk adults for the family photos. We got the photos with a super quick turnaround time, just a few days after the wedding and we LOVED them. Meredith and her assistant captured moments that went by so quickly during the wedding or that we missed and now we have them forever. There were so many creative, artistic, and candid shots. We hired a videographer, but we didn't really need to because Meredith and her assistant captured every step of our wedding. We love our wedding photos and would definitely recommend Zoomtheory to others. Thank you Zoomtheory! (Anna and Allan)

Words really can't express how much this ZooM Theory bunch led by the fabulous Meredith and Amanda mean to me. From our first meeting at the Bridal Expo at the Long Beach Convention Center to our extraordinary engagement pictures, all the way up to our wonderful wedding day, our communication was top-notch and the amazing talent & expertise that this team has is beyond beautiful! Every moment of our wedding day captured allows our story to unfold right before our eyes! The detailed work . The non-stop work behind that camera for hours...They truly made our very special day come to life over and over again. Expertise. Artsy. Professiional. Super Hard - Working. One of a kind! They will be our photographers for life! Amazing website & blog that you must visit. Thank you, ZooM! I have had friends & family already tell me that they are brought to tears by just looking at most of these pictures. Never in my life have I been SO impressed and touched. Super inspiring!!

After running across Zoom's website, I knew I HAD to have them photograph my wedding since I wanted something a little less typical. Meridith promptly returned my call and worked around my very busy schedule so we could meet in person. She is so bubbly and just a joy to be around! Meridith and her assistant were waiting for me on my wedding day, and did an amazing job of keeping my rather large family in line for all the shots. My family was so impressed with her professionalism and talent, and my husband and I couldn't have asked for more beautiful photographs! I can't recommend Zoom Theory enough!

Zoom Theory photographed my engagement and wedding photos. LOVE them! I had most contact with Meredith. She was professional, organized and had great vision for all of our photos. I would recommend her highly to anyone who wants guaranteed amazing photographs to capture any special moment, especially your wedding. I will be using her in the future!

Zoom Theory is AMAZING! Meredith and Amanda are true professionals and are the cream of the crop when it comes to photography. They were able to capture all of the special moments from our wedding day that we will be able to cherish for years to come. Meredith knew all the right shots to get and the final products were breathtaking. My husband had tears in his eyes when he looked at them! Thank you, Zoom Theory, we would definitely recommend you to everyone and we will definitely use you for all of our photo needs to come! YOU ROCK!!!!

I was BLOWN AWAY by how amazing our engagement and wedding shots came out. If you are looking for an artistic, unique and skilled pair of professionals Meredith and Amanda are it. I would not go with anyone else! They were friendly and professional every step of the way. I plan on using them for many life moments that I hope to capture. I would HIGHLY recommend this pair. I feel really lucky to have my memories captured in an enchanting and contemporary fashion.

I LOVE pictures! So of course I'm going to be very picky about my photographer when it comes to some of the most important pictures in my life: my wedding!

I lucked out in finding Zoom Theory at a bridal show. Amongst the sea of photographers, their work stood out from the rest. Every picture was STUNNING! Not only was the composition and presentation beautiful, but each picture was like looking at a work of art! There was something very antique and romantic about each photo, while capturing some beautiful moment in time.

What sealed the deal was talking to the owners Meredith and Amanda. Even in the cattle call setting of the large bridal show, they took the time to answer any and all of my questions. I felt at ease with them and knew they would capture every beautiful detail that I saw (or in some cases didn't see) at my wedding.

Their prices were very competitive!

Their attention to detail was impeccable!

Their customer service was top notch!

I would 150% recommend Zoom Theory to my friends--and I already have!

I am looking forward to a long relationship with Zoom Theory, as I want them there to capture all of my special days...like they did when I married my best friend!

Thank you Zoom Theory!
~Janine

My wife and I talked to 3 different photographers on our hunt to find the perfect one. Most of them out there say the same things and their work is generally very similar. They are all very professional-looking, artistic shots that are photo journalism at its best. Zoom Theory was immediately different, in very positive ways. We wanted our photos to capture the theme of our wedding well, which was vintage-modern--a throwback if you will, and we wanted our pictures to look like no one else's. No one could do what Zoom Theory could. They aren't just photographers, but are designers as well, and this made all the difference in our selection. Some of our pictures look straight out of a 1930's fashion magazine!

On our wedding day, Meredith was amazing. I've been to many weddings where the photographer isn't assertive enough to get a group of people to do something. I've seen pictures where everyone looks great, but you see one person at the end completely blinking or looking somewhere else. There were no issues with Meredith. When she spoke, people listened! Our wedding pictures look great, and we still haven't been able to narrow down our selections for the album. Great work, guys! I could go on and on with accolades about them, but I know brides (and the rare groom on this site) need all the time on their side as they can get. If you do choose Zoom Theory, you will not be disappointed.

Zoom Theory is awesome! Meredith and her team were great to work with and made our wedding day run smoothly. I would recommend Meredith and Zoom Theory to anyone looking for an amazing and professional photography experience. We couldn't be happier with our wedding and engagement photos! THANK YOU!

I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE zoom theory photography! Meredith was beyond flexible willing to meet or drop a picture off to my place or somewhere in my area which was very nice also I can't imagine having better wedding pictures thanks to her and Amanda! I will second that regarding our engagement session!! We had a hard time to pick which ones we wanted to purchase and let me tell you she really worked with us on that ( they aren't out to nickle and dime you at all). I can't speak enough good words about them and they went above and beyond my expectations! I will definately be recommending them to ANYONE looking for quality pictures :) Thank you Thank you Thank you
Amie & Beto Delgado

Zoom Theory did an absolutely AMAZING job caputuring every moment of our wedding! I love that Meredith and her team step outside of cookie-cutter wedding photography "bubble." You get the traditional wedding photographs as well as photographs that actually capture the personality of the couple and the true celebration of the wedding!! The time and energy they put in to the photoshopping and the filters--it makes each image different, unique, and beautiful, different than your standard photographer/photos. Not to mention, Meredith and her team are incredible as well--funny, kind, professional, responsive. I couldn't have picked a better photographer for our wedding. If you want to have amazingly unique & beautiful photgraphs to remeber your wedding celebration by, then I couldn't recommend a better photographer than Zoom Theory!!!!

zoomtheory exceeded my expectations on every level and I have high expectations so I rarely feel this way! They were absolutely amazing! I adore my photos and am forever grateful for how Meredith and her team capture my wedding day. :)

Zoom theory rocks!!!! Meredith was super helpful and was so fun to work with. She made it so easy on us the day of the wedding. We were able to enjoy our day without feeling like all we did was take pictures. Our pictures turned out amazing... Thanks for everything

I can not say enough good things about Meredith! She is AMAZING and I could not be happier with everything she did on our wedding day. My husbands family & groomsmen are a ton to handle and she was so fun and playful with them while keeping them in line and making them do exactly what she needed.

I loved her and am so excited to see our photos! Thank you very much to Meredith as she worked her butt off and am so happy with everything she has done! Thank you!

Wow! I don't know where to start!!!!! I LOVE ZOOM THEORY!!!! I have nothing but GREAT things to say about Merideth and Amanda! If I could I would rate them a 10 out of 5 :) I have gotten so many compliments about my engagement pictures and now my wedding pictures! I would highly recommend this photography studio. Merideth and Amanda are friendly, creative, professional but yet easy to work with. Thank you Zoom Theory for making being a part of our special day and creating such beautiful pictures. Next, when I am pregnant I will be calling you up for pregnancy picture :) ....but that won't be for awhile :)

Zoom Theory Photography was the most amazing wedding vendor that my husband and I had the pleasure of working with. Meredith and Amanda are professional, timely, sensitive to the needs of the bride and groom, and prepared for anything and everything. The value for the services rendered is beyond reasonable.

Both my husband and I are extremely picky about photos of us and there was not a bad photo that was taken on our wedding day by Zoom Theory.

If you're looking for perfection - stop looking once you've booked them, you've found it!

Zoom Theory is an amazing team that doesn't just take and make great photography... they help drive your wedding. One of the best parts of collaborating is taking the wedding itinerary and having them provide a schedule to ensure all key moments are documented. On the wedding day they go hand and hand with the day of coordinator to ensure you are on schedule. I felt like Zoom Theory was a partner in our wedding more than a vendor. Never pushy with sales, always responsive, punctual, and extremely flexible with schedules and requests. Their in-house graphic designs offer great enhancements and artistic touch as well. Highly recommended!!!

OMG!!!!! The photographers where the BEST ever!!!! I love them both for having my wedding a dream come true!!!! The pictures are so pretty and I love them all!!!! The cool thing is, I did not even see the photographers in the wedding! They where sooo good and thank you for everything!!!

Zoom Theory Photography is amazing. Meredith shot our engagement photos which we absolutely adore and we were floored by how incredible our Wedding photos came out. Meredith and Amanda shot our Wedding and captured all of the joy and fun energy that was our Wedding Day. They are so natural and easy to work with and are so good at what they do. They documented every single detail, got amazing shots of us getting ready, our first look, incredible ceremony photos and they took great family and group shots. Their candid photos are exactly what we were hoping for. They made amazing choices with editing every single photo and we have such a perfect range of beautiful, saturated color photos, black and white and sepia photographs. We treasure our Wedding photos and we are thrilled that we made the perfect choice in Photographers to document the feel of our Wedding Day.

We are so thrilled with the pictures from Zoom Theory. They captured all our special moments in an artistic way which was important to us. Meredith was great to work with and so organized. We realized how important organization is in getting all the right moments, and they were such troopers in shooting in the sand and the rocky area on the beach. Our family and friends keep telling us how amazing the pictures turned out. The best summary is from a friend from out of state who was not able to be at the wedding, she wrote "The pictures are great. I love the fun group shots, but I also love the beach shots. Heck, I love 'em all!" That's exactly how we feel. Thank you Zoom Theory

Zoom Theory was amazing! They were so great with us and our guests throughout the entire wedding. The pictures are so beautiful and the quality of the photographs is worth every penny! I would highly recommend them and actually have a family friend already using them for his upcoming wedding.

From the first time we met Meredith, at “Wine and Wedding Wednesdays” we were impressed. We were only in town for a couple days, trying to plan the whole wedding in a week, and she made the time to meet with us the next day. Her attention to detail and flexibility was apparent immediately as she advised me to get a “nice hanger” for my wedding dress so it photographs better – and she was right, what a difference the hanger makes!

Meredith was exactly who we needed on the day of the wedding as she was able to control the variety of personalities in our families and bridal party and reign in the fraternity brothers among the groomsmen. She maximized the time available and we got amazing photos as a result. Her professionalism, as well as her assistant’s, was priceless in ensuring our day ran smoothly.

The post-production work by Amanda was equally as impressive. As we sipped wine and viewed the over 850 photos these amazing ladies prepared for us, we just kept saying, “we picked the right photographer”. Now we have to pick only a few to frame, this is a much harder decision than picking Zoom Theory was!

Meredith did a fabulous job with our engagement and wedding pictures! She went way above and beyond our expectations with her quality of service, professionalism, and skill/talent.
Merideth is very passionate about her work and it clearly shows. Her bubbly personality eases the stress or akwardness of posing for pictures. This was a big help to my wife and I because we had never posed like models before ;-).

I would highly recommend Merideth. She helped make our wedding much more fun and enjoyable.She is worth every penny and I would gladly hire her again.


-Angel & Vanessa Pedrego

I love Zoom Theory Photography! They did such a fabulous job on my wedding and shot the hottest engagement photos ever. I knew I was making a good choice when I saw Meredith & Amanda's work, but everyone who sees our engagement and wedding photos always rave about how great they look. In addition the photographer Meredith was so sweet and really took control of the wedding party since my wedding planner was a bird brain. EVERYONE noticed how professional and nice she was. I am so glad I will have such beautiful photos of our wedding. Money well spent.

Zoom Theory is amazing! I couldn't be happier with my pictures. They defiantly surpassed my expectations and I have gotten so many compliments. Highly recommended!

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for being so AMAZING at what you do! I am so impressed at how you (and your assistant worked seamlessly together &) captured EVERY meaningful moment & memory of our special day! I knew you were going to be amazing but to see all 945 pictures and see how beautiful the moments you captured were, was such a delight! It was like reliving my wedding day :) I even had butterflies <3 I loved ALL of them (except the one picture I ruined with my twisted goofy arms hahaha). I will be raving about Zoom Theory Photography forever!!!! The pictures speak for themselves every wedding they shoot looks AMAZING! One more thing Meredith makes your wedding run so smoothly and on schedule she is so calm and makes sure the bride is happy :) I love her!

Meredith and Zoom Theory is the best. Really great and so easy to work with. She took our engagement photos as well as our wedding pictures. She helped us pick a gorgeous location for the engagement session and didn't mind that we brought our dog. In fact, she encouraged it. You will have beautiful pictures of your precious memories. You will not be disappointed.

Meredith was great! We got married at the Wayfarer's Chapel which has a 2 hour time limit, and Meredith and her associate kept us moving and directed us and our families so that we could maximize the time we had there. They were very professional and super nice. At our reception, they scouted the area for the best places to take pictures, and directed us with ease. I can't say enough good things about them!

Meredith and the team photographed Jason and my wedding at La Venta Inn in Palos Verdes Estates. We live in Boston so we were doing most of the wedding organizing from there with only a couple of trips out to LA. Meredith was so easy to work with. With only speaking to her a couple of times she new exactly the type of shots we wanted. She was highly organized and on the night everything flowed exactly to plan. Jason and I absolutely love our photos and we have received so many wonderful comments from friends and family who have seen them. I would definitely use Meredith again, hopefully I can get her to take some baby shots for us when we out in LA in the new year!

Hi Folks,

We love our Zoom Theory pictures so much we can honestly say we anticipated their arrival almost as much as we did that of our special day. Meredith & Amanda posses a unique artistic vision, and a refined professional work ethic. We highly recommend their service to anyone in need of not only a photographer, but also that of an artist. We look forward to seeing them capture our future family portraits, as the years go by and the Blancas family continues to grow.

Best Regards,

Cynthia & Ricardo

Zoom Theory Photography played a HUGE part in making my wedding the best day of my life!!!! Not only are they AMAZINGLY talented photographers, but they are the most; FRIENDLY, CARING, HELPFUL people I have ever met. Meredith and Amanda truly go WAY above and beyond for their clients - I have never seen anything like it!!! I am so thankful to have found them and I am so excited to look at the beautiful photo's they captured for the rest of my life (because they are incredible)!!!!!!! I would recommend Zoom Theory to anyone... once you talk to Meredith you will know exactly what I'm talking about. Zoom Theory is truly THE BEST!!!

We first heard about Meredith, Amanda and the Zoom Theory team from a bride who’s wedding was at the Trump Golf Club. When I first saw their style, I was sold. They have such a unique eye and perspective. I was immediately drawn to the vintage tones and colors that they use so well. Also, something that set Zoom Theory apart from other wedding photographer shops was their transparency in packaging and pricing. Everything was very straight forward and there were no hidden costs which made comparison fast and easy, something that was a welcome change from other photographers. We wanted a mix of candid and standard poses and Meredith was flexible and easygoing about all of it from the start. We really felt the undivided attention and care in making sure our pics were nothing less than spectacular. Our engagement pics turned out wonderfully and we were so excited to see how the wedding ones turned out -- needless to say they were amazing. Meredith was also a calming presence on the wedding day for us and the restless flower girls, helping to move us all along, despite the time crunch before the wedding. Now the hard part of choosing the pictures from the bunch for the album! Definitely recommend zoom theory to any bride out there, we spoke with a lot of vendors in preparation for the wedding and Meredith and Amanda stand out as a team that will go the extra mile for their brides!

It was love at first photo! I met Meredith and Amanda at a bridal show and they didn't need over-exaggerated booth display like the other vendors to capture my admiration. Zoom Theory Photography was responsible for the most important part of our wedding, capturing our memories, It was all accomplished without a single worry. Truly all about professionalism and personality.
Zoom Theory photographers are beyond talented and have been a true pleasure to work with.

Meredith's work has proved to be both creative, and mind blowing. She captured all my special moments during my big day, and with the way she finishes the photos it gives a very unique, classy, and vintage feel... Which is exactly what I wanted. I would recommend her to anyone. My husband and I are very pleased.

Zoom Theory is amazing! Not only do they take amazing photos but they provide top notch service. Our engagement and wedding photos are stunning. Zoom Theory doesn't simply take photos, they capture moments. The memories that they captured will last a lifetime. Not only does Zoom Theory do amazing photography, their work is a form of unique art. The turn around time for the photos was beyond my expectations, both our engagement photos and wedding photos were ready within a few weeks! One of my bridesmaids commented that she wished that she had used them when she got married because her photographer didn't capture moments like Zoom Theory does. A few of my friends used them for engagement sessions after seeing our engagement photos and my friend that is having a local wedding booked them as well! I cannot say enough about the quality of service and beautiful work that they do. I highly recommend them.

We found Meredith and Zoomtheory to be absolutely hands down the best most trusted vendor for our entire wedding! The flexibility with last minute changes, the ability to work with our budget and the TALENT LEVEL of "having vision" for our day, has given us pictures to last our lifetime! I seriously would never think of going elsewhere for any events pictures. Babys, anniversary, b-days or simple family portraits. Thank you Meredith Zoomtheory.....you delivered us an amazing gift for life!

Meredith and Melody photographed and captured the special moments of my beautiful wedding. Looking at the hundreds of pictures that they took, the memory-story telling pictures are a priced possessions. Being the bride, it was difficult to know what was going on and thus the photographs gave us the story that we needed to see over and over. Thanks to the teamwork that Meredith put together for us that day. We are very happy with our photographers and as a thank you to them,we will be recommending them to our family and friends.

I love love love love all my pictures!!!! Meridith and Amanda are amazing! I did my engagement photos and wedding photos with Zoom Theory and I seriously have THE BEST pictures! Im for sure referring them to all future brides, they captured every single moment of our beautiful day and were extremely professional. Also they were very understanding of our financial situation and gave us the best package and deal so that we could keep it in our budget. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts ladies!!

I loved working with Zoom Theory. The photographers and staff are very great at what they do. I couldn't ask for a better photographer to capture one of the most important days of my life. My wedding pictures came out awesome. The time they spend making our pictures was priceless. We Love You Meredith & Amanda! :) LJ

Meredith and Amanda stood out from the day I met them. Me and mom met them at a bridal show in March. They were very personably and their pictures in their portfolios were awesome. They answered all our questions and always responded to our inquires within 24 hours. I don't consider myself very photogetic, but Meredith was always able to get a smile out of me and my husband.
Zoom Theory ended up doing our engagement and wedding photos. They all came out amazing. We constantly get asked who our photographers were. We love their style. We will definitely use them in the future for family photos.

Meredith and Amanda at Zoom Theory are wonderful! I interviewed a few photographers and when I met Meredith she was very excited for me, had tons of helpful wedding ideas, and was willing to work with my budget. Other photographers were trying to make money, but Meredith really wanted me to be happy with the wedding and the pictures. I decided to hire her because she was very personable and professional! Not all photographers possess these valuable traits. When my wedding day came, they were there early and had the challenge of shooting in the rain - my pictures are absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Many of my guests commented on the great job they were doing, some even asked for their information. When the pictures were edited they made to have a vintage look which fit the theme and atmosphere of the wedding; these ladies are very capable of meeting whatever needs you have. I highly recommend Zoom Theory; you will be very pleased with the outcome.

Meredith and Amanda did an amazing job at our wedding!! We couldn't have asked for more from our photographers. They captured all of our most important wedding memories plus many more. Our photos are breath taking and allow us to re-live our special day as often as we would like. We HIGHLY recommend Zoom Theory Photography for all your special occasions. We are looking to start a family soon and will be using Zoom Theory for all of our family photos! Thank you so much Zoom Theory - this is the beginning of a beautiful relationship :)

Meredith from Zoom Theory Photography was a complete delight to work with! She's very energetic, and has great ideas for photos. Zoom Theory Photography was flexible regarding our contract and add/subtracting products. She provided a list of suggested photos, and was completely flexible in accomodating our requests and fly-by-the-seat-of-our pants photos on site. We are extremely pleased with the results of our wedding photos- they couldn't be more beautiful. In addition, during our final site visit at the venue with their coordinator, Meredith worked with our caterer and florist to assist us in ensuring the photos, the whole event really, would turn out as flattering as possible. In short, should I need a photographer for another event, I would hire Zoom Theory Photography in a heart beat.

Meredith and Amanda of Zoom Theory were the best choice that we made for our wedding day. They could not have done a better job capturing each special moment of our wedding. We loved working with them and would recommend having them as your photographers as there is no one else that could do a better job! We appreciate their hard work and the ability to have made it so easy to work with them! We cannot stop looking at our photos and are so thrilled to have them to cherish for the rest of our lives!

Meredith, the owner and photographer was OUTSTANDING! She not only shot our engagement session but also our wedding. Meredith is the nicest, caring, and understanding person you'll ever meeting in the wedding business. She and her crew were all extremely professional, and she was a pleasure to work with, she was also willing to customize a package that fit our budget; which was a plus. Meredith also interacted well with our daughter when trying to make her cooperate and smile for the camera...she's great with children and family as well. I would strongly recommend Zoom Theory Photography!!!

As a woman that has been in 14 weddings and seen her fair share of cookie cutter, bland, they-all-look-the-same photos of my dear friends "most special day", I wanted something different. In fact, I wouldn't settle for anything less than the most artistic, beautiful, visionary portraits I could find. Which as I proceeded into the "getting married sphere", proved to be highly challenging. At a bridal expo (of which I was originally opposed, but desperate since my wedding was less than a month away), I stumbled across the benign photographers I had become accustomed to. What I was not accustomed to was their prices! $3,000 for blah photos?! No. Then, I made my way toward the most artistic and visionary portraits I had ever seen! I thought, "there is no way they will be available on 10/10/10. They are too good!" After meeting Meredith and her team (Amanda, Jennifer...to name a few), she found a way, a true miracle-brides-dream-come-true way, of making it happen with a fraction of the price of these others! So much fun to plan with, they made the experience flow so smoothly and were so refreshingly kind, it was seamless to welcome them into our intimate wedding. And then we saw the photos! It was a true chore to find the best one to pick for the largest print! They were ALL divine! My whole family and friends had to help! There were so many beautiful portraits - true works of art! We even had one made on canvas. I have NEVER seen such wedding photos (and trust me, I have seen plenty). They even did portraits of our guests and some images have brought my family/friends to tears of joy! I not only recommend the talented women at Zoom Theory, I emphatically scream, "Look no further, you have found your photographers!" The process of development by Amanda is genius! And she really takes such time and pours her heart and artistic talent into defining who you are as a couple and your vision which is very difficult to do. I plan to use them for all other events in the future...how could I not? they are the real deal...they are true Masters of photography. Cheers to the Zoom crew! Sincerely, Mrs. Gretchen Anne Westlake

Zoom Theory is amazing! I really cannot stop raving about how great their service is. Our family and friends have given us so many compliments on our engagement photos and we can't wait to see how the wedding pictures turn out.
Zoom Theory is a team of 2 ladies, Meredith is the photographer and Amanda does all of the editing and they are both so personable and easy to work with. I am a full time student and Meredith was willing to drive all the way from Redondo Beach (where the business is located) to the Inland Empire to meet with my fiance and I to discuss booking AND came out here again for our engagement session to accommodate my schedule. On the day that my engagement session was originally scheduled the forecast called for 107 degree heat and NO cloud cover and Meredith called me first thing in the morning to find out if I wanted to reschedule for a day when it wasn't so miserable out. That's service!
My digital negatives were returned to me SUPER quickly and they even threw in a few freebies! Zoom Theory Photography is such a great value- by booking in the month I did, i even got 500$ off my package which allowed me to get much more for my money than I expected. They have been so easy to get a hold of, very responsive and their quality of work is amazing! I've been recommending them to every bride I meet!

My husband and I could not have asked for greater photographers!! Meredith made us feel so at ease at our engagment session resulting in the most beautiful pictures we have ever seen. The girls at Zoomtheory made our wedding day so wonderful. They remained calm even though the bridal suite turned into a mad house, got every shot we wanted and more, and were the most darling ladies we have ever met! After a very short time we were able to see all of our photos online and were so amazed at how gorgeous they were! It was also so wonderful to see how much emotion they captured in so many puctures. It is so wonderful to be able to take a look at one picture and be transported back to the most beautiful moment in out lives.

We highly recommend Zoomtheory! They are the best!!

Zoom Theory Photography is hands down the best wedding photography team in the South Bay! They were a dream to work with and always made my husband and I feel as though we were a top priority! Their customer service is filled with personal touches that cater to each couples style and needs! They did the photography at my wedding as well as a friend's wedding and although the ceremonies were very different, they were able to capture the essence of each event! The special touches that their graphic designer adds to the photos makes them look like timeless pieces of artwork! As a bride on a budget, I can tell you that Zoom Theory is a great investment and worth every penny! I would highly recommend them to any bride and groom to-be!

Not only does Meredith do beautiful work that my friends and family are still raving about she also has the ability to make everyone including the bride feel at ease on and before her big day. My photography was one thing I did not have to worry about. She really took charge on my wedding day and got everyone to cooperate which is hard with a large family and limited time. She photographed everything that I wanted and more. Amanda is also wonderful and friendly and a superior eye for design. She added beautiful design elements to my photos that really made them pop! I will definitely be using Zoom Theory in the future for all my big events! Thanks for everything Meredith and Amanda! :)

P.S. My photo preview was already in my inbox before we came back from our honeymoon!

Our wedding was put together in two months. We found zoom theory at a bridal show and just fell in love with their photos. They were able to work with us on price and the short time we had to prepare. I can't even being to explain how amazing our photos turned out!!! People are still talking about them to this day. My favorite part about Zoom Theory is that they were able to capture all the love and happiness that was happening throughout the wedding. No photo was forced.

Oh my goodness, where to begin? Zoom found ME through Eventective, and thank heavens for that. I was a clueless bride planning a wedding almost entirely by myself and had no idea where to begin. Meredith, the main photographer, reached out to me in her friendly, approachable way and was extremely flexible in meeting up with me and addressing my every concern while I was vendor-shopping. Zoom's stuff (see the samples yourself) was so beautifully unique and breathtaking that I couldn't say no, despite the many vendors family and friends had already suggested to me. She even worked with me on my extremely tight budget, another factor that placed her miles ahead of other vendors.

The problem was this- I was a very tough bride bc my wedding was going to be Orthodox Jewish, and it is VERY unconventional to go with a photographer that has not done an Orth. wedding before because there are so many unique traditions and moments that it's tough to catch them all in the right way if you are not familiar. Meredith put my fears aside. She met with me as many times as it took, learning the details that would await her at my wedding. She adapted so quickly and easily to my needs it was easy to forget that 'I was her first' ;).

Don't let her and her calm, youthful, and friendly manner deceive you- she was extremely professional and managed to reign in my wonderful but unruly groomsmen, though in their 30's, they may as well have been a group of rowdy 12 year olds. She still kept her cool and got the ball moving. Though the formal photographs were a bit rushed, and we couldn't get EVERY shot we wanted ( we forgot some key photos like a pic of me and husb with both of our immediate families together), I'm told that this is par for the course at any wedding, by all the veterans. Meredith even stayed on for a few hours after that alotted time (which was plenty) because I had more 'moments' i wanted to capture.

What's more, was the album process. From there, Amanda the designer takes over. She was wonderful, patient, and was REALLY able to bring my vision to life. I regret to admit that I was a bit of a nag, wanting everything 'perfect' and 'just-so' and kept bothering her for changes here and there. She never flinched, and kept a virtual smile on her face the whole time (everything was accomplished pretty much over email- which was a relief for me, i hate the phone). Now, I all that's left is for my album to arrive at my door. I cannot wait. You MUST pick ZOOM! Oh- and another glowing report- I've had all friends and family access my photos (they are housed online shortly after the wedding) and all of them said they've never seen such beautiful, magazine-like quality photos before. So it's unanimous :).

When we started looking for a photographer we were shocked by some of the prices out there! I was so excited to find Zoom Theory! When looking over some photos of past weddings that they had done, I knew that it was the style I wanted and the prices were unbeatable!! Meredith and her entire team of professionals made us feel like we were old friends instead of just another nameless client. Meredeth spent time with us prior to the big day to make sure she knew exactly what we expected out of our photos, and she also put together an extensive time line for us and had a list of all of our "must have" family members! That list made post ceremony photos go so smoothly!! We felt so comfortable in front of the camera by the time the day arrived because of all of the time and planning done ahead of time! Meredith and her team actually arrived to our venue early on our wedding day to scope out the property! We could not be more pleased with all of our photos! The only problem I have now is trying to decide which ones to frame for our house because I love them all!!!!!

We hired Zoom Theory on the recommendation of a friend and couldn't have been happier with the results. They took our rather inexpensive backyard wedding and captured an amazing degree of beauty and elegance that I wasn't sure possible. They were diligent and professional every step of the way and managed to capture many of the candid, fun moments in addition to the more traditional wedding poses. Not one photo of us came out looking stiff or artificial. They put us at ease, allowing our personalities to shine through in every shot. We bought a digital photo frame and two years removed our wedding photos are still the only ones on display. I couldn't recommend this company enough, you will not be disappointed!

Zoom Theory Photography is amazing. Professional, creative and so much fun! They created the most incredible wedding album for us. Meredith and Amanda are awesome! We know they will be in our lives to capture even more memories in the future.

Meredith was so wonderful to work with. I was apprehensive about our day being defined by the photography sessions, but she totally fit into our plans, was unobtrusive, completely and wonderfully easy to work with, very professional, very kind, and she gave us amazing images edited beautifully by Amanda! She was a delight and I would gladly recommend her to anyone and everyone!!

I love this team of ladies. They are wonderful and a true delight. I recommend them when I am unavailable, because I know they will take care of each client that walks into their studio. They are trusted friends and wonderful professionals.

Yay for Zoom Theory! We can't wait to see you guys at our Bridal Show this March!

Fabulous Photographer!

Zoom Theory is a unique team , their work speaks for itself !

Not only is Zoom Theory's work amazing, they are always full of energy, positive and eager to help! Always a pleasure to work with!
