Wedding Photographer of the Quarter
Brian Callaway Named Wedding Photographer of the Quarter by Masters of Wedding Photography
We’re beyond thrilled to share some incredible news: Brian Callaway has been honored as Wedding Photographer of the Quarter (3/2025) by Masters of Wedding Photography, one of the most respected organizations in the international wedding photography community. This recognition highlights not just individual images, but an entire body of work that reflects creativity, authenticity, and the ability to tell wedding stories in unforgettable ways.
What the Award Means
The Masters of Wedding Photography is an international collective that recognizes photographers who consistently produce outstanding, authentic, and innovative work. Each quarter, a panel of industry leaders reviews thousands of submissions from around the world and selects the photographers whose images set new standards for wedding storytelling. To be named Photographer of the Quarter is not just about one lucky shot, it’s about a consistent vision, artistic excellence, and the ability to capture both grand moments and quiet in-between ones. For us, this award reinforces something we’ve always believed: weddings are about people, stories, and emotions, not staged perfection. Our job is to capture that spirit in a way that feels alive decades from now.
The Winning Images
The collection of winning images reflects the diversity and joy of our couples. Each of these photographs represents the unique trust our couples give us — to document their wedding not as a series of posed moments, but as a living story.

Why Awards Matter to Our Couples
While our greatest reward is always the gratitude of the couples we photograph, industry recognition plays an important role too. Awards like this matter because:
They validate excellence in a competitive, global field.
They reassure couples that they are hiring photographers who are consistently producing world-class imagery.
They keep us growing. Competing at this level pushes us to innovate, refine, and never settle.
When you book Callaway Gable, you’re choosing photographers trusted not only by couples around the world, but also recognized by the very best in the industry.
A Legacy of Recognition
This award joins a long list of honors we’re proud of, including:
Multiple Fearless Photographers Awards, leading Los Angeles, CA, and in the tops for USA and the world.

Published features in Vogue, People, and Inside Weddings

But what makes this particular recognition special is its timing. After nearly two decades in the wedding industry, to still be pushing boundaries and creating images that resonate globally is deeply meaningful.
What’s Next
For us, this award is fuel. It inspires us to keep telling wedding stories with authenticity, heart, and creativity. It pushes us to keep seeking those unscripted, once-in-a-lifetime moments that define a couple’s wedding day. If you’re planning your wedding in Los Angeles, Malibu, or beyond, we’d love to bring that same passion to your story.
Final Thoughts

From intimate ceremonies to multi-day celebrations, from luxury hotels to barefoot beach weddings, our goal remains the same: to create photographs that feel alive with your story.
