Jamie English Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Arroyo Grande, CA

Hi all! I'll be honest, I've never loved writing bios. I'd much rather start up an email or hop on the phone with you and get to know each other in a more personal way! But until then - my name is Jamie and I've been in love with photography most of my life now (over 20 years!) and in business photographing weddings, families, and non-profits for 7 years. I'm married to the sweetest man, spend my days playing with the cutest babe, and love to travel and spend time with family and friends any chance I get. Studying art inspires me, reading ignites my curiosity, and experiencing other cultures gives me life. I hope I can get to know you too!

We found Jamie by a sheer stroke of luck - referred through another wedding photographer whose prices were WAY (way way) beyond our budget. From our first communication it was apparent she’s such a genuine and loving person - in addition to being an incredible resource on all things wedding-planning related. We actually used Zola’s wedding registry based on her recommendation! At the last minute, we decided to scrap the wedding planning (deposits be darned) and elope instead. Rather than balking, Jamie jumped at the opportunity to shoot the elopement and even served as our witness! She spent all day with us and shot hundreds of beautiful, high quality photos which she delivered in just a few weeks time. Since then, we’ve had her shoot our engagement photos (after the elopement!), maternity photos and annual family photos. We even gifted our mom a photo session for her 50th birthday. Each experience with Jamie has been so special - she puts us right at ease and captures the intimate moments in between. We can not recommend her highly enough!

Hi there! My name is Abby, and I am a traveling wedding photographer local to Denver, CO. I am committed to getting to know you and investing in your special day. I want to be your personal hype girl! I am here to celebrate your love while documenting the beauty and emotion that comes with it. I am here to relieve stress and provide you with your dream photographs. Wedding photos are incredibly special, and I want you to have the very best!

Abby was a joy to work with! She was so down to earth and fun in a way that instantly put us both at ease and kept us laughing through most of our shoots! We both appreciated her creativity and her willingness to experiment with different ideas. One of our favorite parts was how excited she would get every time she captured a really great shot - it increased our confidence and excitement about what we were doing, and I think ultimately created an even better product. When Abby sent us our photos, they were vibrant and wonderfully candid - just what we wanted!

Reflect Studios

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Arroyo Grande, CA for additional fees

We are a collaboration of photographers and editors bringing together unique ideas and electrifying energy. We are eager and excited to work with couples on one of the most exciting days of their lives!

My husband, Michael and I live in the Minneapolis area but we had our wedding in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, where our friends and family are from. We started by looking for photographers in Michigan before coming across Reflect Studios, right here in Minneapolis. I fell in love with their photography style immediately so I reached out. We ended up stretching our budget a little and booked a destination wedding package with them right away. We felt that Reflect was the absolute best bang for our buck. We met and maintained contact with our photographer, Sian, months prior to the wedding day so we felt really comfortable everything would go as planned. The wedding day was nothing short of perfect. I married my best friend in front of the people that mean the most to us in one of the most beautiful venues I could have ever imagined. A week later, Sian sent us a Sneak Peek album of our wedding and about a month later, we got all of our photos. Every time we see the photos Sian captured for us, Michael and I relive that day over and over again. Sian did an incredible job in capturing the emotion that everyone was feeling. To this day, Sian and I remain close friends. We would hire Reflect Studios 100 out of 100 times.

Jenna Bryant Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Arroyo Grande, CA for additional fees

Hey Yall, I'm Jenna! I was born and raised in Houston, Texas but I've spent the last 7 years working in the wedding capitol of the world, Vegas baby. I'm back in the Lone Star State and I brought the Vegas flare with me! If you're looking for someone out of the ordinary, you've come to the right gal. I specialize in unique styled sessions, wild elopements and groovy weddings. Get in touch and we'll work together to create something as rad as you.

Nate proposed on December 1, 2018 and we already had a trip to Las Vegas planned that same month. We decided to tie the knot while on vacation and I planned our desert sunset wedding/elopement in 8 days. Jenna came as a recommendation from our officiant. (Also from Las Vegas-thank you Pinterest/Google!) we are a little out of the box and I was assured Jenna would match our vision. Her communication was top notch during the contract process and since my hubby and I wouldn’t be renting a car, she offered to drive us from our Downtown Las Vegas photo shoot with her (pre ceremony) to our ceremony destination, El Dorado Dry Lake Bed. She also then drove us back to the Flamingo where we were staying. It really was meant to be that we found Jenna! An old soul wrapped in a cute lighting bolt jumpsuit. (I love Elvis and that spoke right to me!) Jenna met us in downtown Las Vegas (Old Vegas) and walked us around to multiple historic buildings, hotels, motels, casinos, parking lots, parks and art districts. Her knowledge of the area was on point and her passion for the city was apparent. We honestly felt like we made a friend that day. We had a very quick turn around time with our photos and we were (and still are) absolutely blown away. Jenna captured our day, and more importantly US, perfectly. I get compliments almost daily on my social platforms and I still scroll through them on a regular basis! We can not say enough good things about Jenna! She’s the perfect photographer for the out of the box bride AND the most traditional bride. Her eye is magical and she sees beauty in everything. I wanted magical Las Vegas wedding memories and Jenna far far surpassed my imagination! She’s a true gem. Thanks again girl! You’re literally the best! We can’t wait to come back and do a re-shoot!

Hey girl hey! I'm a destination wedding and elopement photographer, based in Atlanta, GA! I'm a 24 year old dog mom to my boy, Gunner, an avid gluten-free baker, and New Girl & Jane The Virgin fanatic. I picked up a camera during college and never looked back. I've been a full-time wedding and elopement photographer since 2019. I am obsessed with weddings and genuinely love every day I've gotten to be a part of. I fell in love with travel at a young age and knew that I needed to use that passion to serve my couples. Now, I capture my couple's dream weddings and elopements all over the world and I couldn't be happier!

If you’re looking for a friendly, fun and professional photographer who captures the most beautiful images of your big day then look no further and book Sydney, you will not be disappointed! Sydney photographed our wedding back in October and we were so impressed with her from start to finish. During the whole process Sydney was always there to answer any questions and also gave us really helpful advice regarding planning a wedding in general. She was extremely helpful on the day of the wedding and captured every moment we had dreamed of! Sydney has also photographed our Christmas photos and engagement photos. We have officially found our photographer for life!

Awarded Best of Zola
We used Tessa from Elmwood Images for our engagement pictures and she was amazing. We are super awkward as soon as a camera comes out and on top of that we wanted our pictures done off a remote back road in our area. Tessa was ready roll as soon as we told her about it and let us drive her out into the forest to get the shots. She spent the time to get to know us and makes us feel comfortable ahead of time. She was super sneaky about making us laugh while posing and snapped the perfect pictures when we weren’t paying attention. We have some gorgeous, natural lit, sunset engagement photos for our invitations. I loved the experience. She got us the proofs within a week! I also have a small business that puts on a Halloween event every year and Tessa volunteered to take event photos for our guests and bring her own handmade backdrop. Those also turned out amazing and she sent us the link within 2 days! I am one hundred percent only booking with Elmwood Images from now on.

Mist Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Arroyo Grande, CA for additional fees

Photography is something I am passionate about because of the trials I have faced in my life. I am a self-made photographer + I love what I do with my whole heart and soul. When I was a senior in high school I lost two of my best friends. Now, any photo I have with those sweet friends are so sentimental to me. The bible verse James 4:14 says, “For you do not know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a Mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.” So live your life with purpose, laughter, follow your passions, and strive to love like Jesus each day, because your life is simply a mist in this world.

Rachael is our all-time photographer and she blows me away every time we have a session with her! Our engagement and wedding photos were flawless and she was a dream to work with! She makes a bride and groom feel comfortable and captures every detail. I can’t recommend Mist Photography enough!

I'm McKenna! I'm a photographer located in Utah, and am down to travel anywhere. I'm living my dream going to tons of weddings and meeting the nicest couples there are. I am great at being a third wheel, and honestly prefer it! Let's make some photo magic!

We absolutely loved the pictures that McKenna took. She did our bridals and wedding day pictures and I am so happy with how they turn out. She made the day really magical and I have some pictures that I will treasure forever. She was also a super great person to work with. She was flexible with our schedule which I really appreciated and was a super good sport to take pics throughout our wedding on the hottest day of the year. And even though we were sweaty and gross outside in July she made us all look good! I would recommend her to anyone!

  • Serves Arroyo Grande, CA for additional fees

Wedding photography for unconventional people. At the core of my practice as a wedding photographer, I believe: - that if your wedding traditions are not authentic and meaningful to you, then you deserve the freedom to build new traditions. - that men, women, and people of all genders are beautiful and deserve to have that beauty celebrated. - that we are most beautiful when we love fully and without reserve. - that no wedding or elopement is too small to commemorate. - that photographs are the record of memory and of personal history. - that you deserve to remember this.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kate's an excellent photographer. She has a real knack for making her photos feel magical—something about how she works with light, how she's able to capture the glamorous side of everyone. She did a lovely job with our wedding photos, and was friendly and helpful through the whole process—I can't recommend her enough.

Elizabeth Yanna Photography

  • Serves Arroyo Grande, CA for additional fees

Hey there! I am Elizabeth, the owner & head photographer of Elizabeth Yanna Photography. I am a couples photographer located out of Coastal Virginia, but I am always up for adventure and travel to wherever your love grows. My editing style is considered "warm and moody" with a photojournalistic twist. You can expect prompts over poses and lots of movement and interaction with your partner, instead of stiff posing and "eye contact" with the camera. I have often been told that I have a way with working quietly and quickly, as to not distract the spotlight of your day from... well, YOU!

Elizabeth was a pleasure to work with. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable, and that shines through in the photos. We are obsessed with how our wedding pictures turned out. She’s the best!

We have come to find that life’s greatest events, although monumental, are simply pieces of our stories. Our hope is to capture those pieces in their most honest way-- reflecting them through tangible imagery, to look back on, to hang on walls, and hold in our hands for generations to come.

Austin and Jenna- where to start? These two are everything we could have wished for (and more) in our photographers! From the beginning they made us feel like more than just another client, they truly made us feel like friends. I knew going into the wedding planning season that I wanted photographers who captured who we truly were, how the moments really felt and they certainly surpassed those expectations.They made us look and feel so wonderful on one of the most special days of our lives and I still look through our gallery often, reminiscing. I still don't know how they managed to make two of the most camera-shy people feel so at ease! At the end of the day if you want quality photos that capture the intimate moments and feelings of the most special days and times in your life- I cannot recommend the Sauers enough. I look forward to sharing these pictures with my husband and our loved ones for years and years to come.

AYOOOOO!!! i’m madeline-- a 20 something old, introverted until you can’t get me to shut up, dog lovin, taco eatin, thrift shop fiendin, adventure seekin, hot mess of a human who fell in love with a camera many years ago. i love hard and deeply, never been too big a fan of stress, and really just believe we were all put on this little floating globe to have one hell of a good time. i'm happiest when surrounded by nature, snuggled up at home with my love and our pups, or creating art out of real life love stories. i find inspiration in all of life's little in-between moments, the way the golden light filters through trees, and big belly laughs

Madeline is amazing! We LOVED Working with Madeline! When looking for a wedding photographer, we were impressed with Madeline's portfolio because her photos are all absolutely stunning and show that she can adapt to different couples' styles. However, what sealed the deal was her amazing personality. We wanted to hire a photographer we felt comfortable with, and Madeline is so sweet and hilariously funny. She made us feel so at ease! On our wedding day, Madeline and her husband, her second shooter, Brian, were SO on top of everything. They acted as our north stars, guiding us through the night. They knew where we needed to go, what we needed to be doing, who we needed to take pics with, everything! They knew how to handle weird family dynamics without missing a beat and even brought us water! Plus, they did all of this while making us laugh. Our wedding was amazing, and I don't know how we could have done it without them! And the photos turned out beautifully! We definitely made the right decision in hiring Madeline.
