Bradenton, FL
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

As a wedding photographer with 10 years of experience, I have a passion for documenty couples as their unique selves. Growing up in New Enland, I obtained a rich education in film photography and grew my knowlege and taste working for seasoned photographers while visiting major art galleries that have informed and inspired my work ever since. My favorite subgect is people. I have always loved getting to know others and making them feel noticed, accepted, and appreciated - and photography is my favorite way to do so. With every image, I strive to show an artistic and real view of my subjects.

We collaborated with Phoebe on a styled shoot and she was warm, welcoming and accommodating. She was delightful to work with and delivered a gallery of high-quality, artistic images very promptly! We would not hesitate to work with her again in the future - she truly cares about her craft and her clients.

Thanks for stopping by! My name is Yanny (pronounced yaw - knee) and I'm a wedding, couples, and storytelling photographer in SWFL. Born and raised in the PNW I like to think that the moody and grey atmosphere from that world has found it's way into my photography style. Candid, raw, full of emotion, and photos that you can "feel" are what I live for! My wife and I live in Sarasota FL with our sweet little boy Moses and our crazy cat Martini. We love the easy-going lifestyle on the gulf coast and whenever I'm free you can find me either exploring a new coffee shop, thrifting, serving at my local church, or spending time with my family!

We couldn't be happier with the amazing wedding photos captured by Yanny!!! We truly appreciate him for his passion and dedication as he has a remarkable talent for creating stunning portraits that truly reflect our personalities and the essence of our relationship. He effortlessly captured the most intimate moments of our special day and his keen eye for detail and ability to capture emotions in every shot truly sets him apart. We are beyond grateful for the timeless memories he has given us and will cherish these photos for a lifetime. We always highly recommend his services to everyone!!!

Hi, I'm Cheyenne. I'm a documentary-style wedding photographer based in a small beach town on the gulf coast of Florida (between Sarasota and Fort Myers). I live in a small, historic home with my husband Chase and our cutie pie daughter. We spend most of our time doing house projects, getting together with family and friends, and facetiming the family and friends who live far away. My people are my everything and the beautiful intricacies of relationships is what I love most about weddings and photography.

Cheyenne Alford Photography was more than we could have ever have hoped for in a wedding photographer. Not only were the pictures MAGIC and allow us to relive our special day over and over, but from start to finish they thought of EVERYTHING. every question I didn’t even think of in regards to details/ timelines was covered and considered in every aspect. Cheyenne has a special way of being your own “hype girl” and it makes you feel awesome about yourself and makes for some pretty spectacular photos to cherish for years to come. I’d recommend Cheyenne Alford photography to any bride/ groom who is willing to listen to me fan girl over their work.

From bright beach weddings to moody mountain top elopements, we strive to capture special days in their best light. We are three friends on a mission to craft bold and beautiful documentary style wedding photography that couples will cherish forever. But above all, we like to think we just click.

From the moment we first spoke with Wyatt from The Next Best Men Wedding Photographers, we knew we were in good hands. Their communication style was clear, friendly, respectful, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process. On the day of our wedding, Wyatt's professionalism and expertise were on full display as he captured the most amazing, beautiful, and impressive photos that we will cherish forever. He put my shy, awkward fiancé and I right at ease, and even impressed our guests by seamlessly shooting with two cameras at once. We are thrilled with the final results and cannot recommend The Next Best Men enough to any couple looking for wedding photographers who will truly help make your special day unforgettable.

Sound Originals did a fantastic job photographing our wedding! Ari and Ali were very professional and they understood how to set up good shots. I'm amazed by how good the lighting was in most of the photos, even in some rooms at the church that weren't as well lit. There are a few photos I wish had been full body rather than cut off at the ankles, oh well. At the end of the night when our coverage had ended before the wedding did, they waited till the end of a song before saying goodbye instead of interrupting, which we greatly appreciated.

Their communication throughout the planning process was incredibly helpful, reliable, and reciprocal - they made us feel comfortable and supported every step of the way. On the day of our wedding, our photographers were diligent, supportive, and truly inspiring. They helped us feel at ease and captured all the special moments beautifully, including the gorgeous dip and flowing dress photos during our Cocktail Hour couple's session. The final photos and videos were flawlessly edited and exceeded our expectations. We are so grateful to the Once Like a Spark team for helping make our wedding day vision come to life, and we would highly recommend them to any couple looking for personable, talented, and dedicated photographers and videographers.

Hi! Hola! Привет! Вітаю! My name is Karyna - the woman behind all the photos you can see. I'm originally from Ukraine. I started my photography career in MA and has since expanded to FL. I have been in photography for more than... hm... (honestly can't tell you the exact number of years because I remember myself with a camera since I was a kid). I absolutely love my career and photography is my addiction. I pride myself on being communicative and open with my couples. Your wedding is not just another wedding to me, it's special and it's also my passion to capture your love. I genuinely find joy in the art of making long lasting memories.

Karyna of Grand Photo is truly a pro. She is a quick and clear communicator who asks plenty of questions to understand the vision. We hired her for engagement photos as well as for our wedding and she went above and beyond for both events. She delivers the photos pretty quickly and they are all stunning- she is able to capture the emotion and the special moments of the day, and is great at playing with the lighting. Not to mention she is a fun and easy going person which is definitely vital for wedding day! I highly recommend Karyna to anyone looking for a special event photographer.

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

Awarded Best of Zola
Lacie captured moments that took my breath away. Her style and skill is every bride’s dream. She delivers everything you adore from those Pinterest and Instagram wedding photos. So there is no question she can deliver what she is looking for. And we are beyond thrilled with all of our photos. The sneak peeks are also so much fun (she sends a batch of photos shortly after she shoots you). But where Lacie shines and what I have to tell you about is everything else. She truly went above and beyond. She’s not just a photographer, she’ll be one of your favorite people on your special day. Yes, Lacie is kind and friendly and comforting and just the kind of person you need on your wedding day (and who you wished you roomed with in college). But she is so much more. Here are just some of the few meaningful things Lacie did that I noticed that I’ll forever carry with me. Firstly, I had a very important rosary I wanted to photograph, and with the chaos, I had forgotten. It would have broken my heart if I left it behind. Lacie remembered. I got fixated on an insignificant hiccup on my wedding day that could have ruined my day. Lacie redirected my attention to the things that really mattered and brightened up my mood immediately. Leading up to the wedding, Lacie advocated for me and my husband ensuring us she was fully dedicated to only us on the day, literally saying “You and Sean are my priority.” Nobody and nothing would take her attention away from us. She was always quick to respond to texts, I could go to her for quick wedding advice, and she’s genuinely so passionate about her craft. Lacie could really be a wedding planner with how much she knows. Other vendors loved working with her, especially our videographers. She was so quick, efficient, and took initiative. She gave them space and skillfully took turns capturing moments with them. With a big wedding party and spacious venue, we kept losing track of people for pictures, Lacie corralled them masterfully. She’s not afraid to get people to focus and get the photos done, but also in the most polite and respectful way. I watched videos of brides saying I wish this or that moment was captured. Sometimes I’d forget whether I had those moments captured myself. Then I go to Lacie’s photos and every single thing that brides mentioned got missed by their photographer she captured for me. Her vibe! She’s so positive and cheery. I was so nervous and also worried about how dark my church was. She got me excited about it after turning it into a positive saying it would look like the theater and she could absolutely work with it. I texted her a shoot list the night before our wedding. She carried that around and took it so seriously making sure she captured everything I listed. I made a Pinterest board of photos I liked and she remembered ones I forgot I included in there. She was my favorite vendor (tied with my incredible florist @dazyflorals) and the vendor I had no worries about it. I didn’t have to check in with her. I could trust her with my eyes closed. She’d be where she needed to be on time, professional, and prepared. I’m going to miss her. Sign her and soak up her sunshine for me, will ya?

I can't say enough good things about Alina and her husband! They were so in tuned to us and our requests as a couple. I was able to share some must have pictures for my engagement session with her and she made them ALL happen. She took us on a mini adventure in downtown Miami and we had the absolute best time! We were able to shoot in 3 different locations thanks to the help of her husband driving laps around the area and us shooting and hopping into the "getaway" car. She developed the pictures SOOOOO fast! We were able to have sneak peaks the very next day! Her and her husband have been married for many years and are a great testament to how a happy and healthy marriage looks like. Alina is so personable, kind and easy to talk to as well. She feels like a friend and I am so excited to have her be a part of my wedding day! The attention to detail and the personal love and care that she has shown us has honestly made her my absolute favorite vendor so far. She is everything that I could have possibly wanted in a wedding photographer and more! She is a MUST HAVE photographer and we will be recommending her to anyone who may need one in the future.
