HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts! (But I mean who isnt! I just cant help it!) FUN FACT: I speak switzerdütsch, aka a German slang. My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

Ashley Cynthia Photography provided excellent service for our wedding photography needs. Ashley's communication throughout the planning process was fast, caring and thoughtful - she truly wanted to understand our vision and preferences. On the big day, Ashley traveled from Arizona to capture our Colorado wedding. She helped immensely with organizing the timeline and coordinating with other vendors. Most importantly, the quality of Ashley's work is simply stunning. Her photographic style resulted in elegant, unique and professional photos that we will treasure forever. She perfectly captured the joy and love of our special day. We couldn't recommend Ashley highly enough for wedding photography services. She had us laughing and feeling more like a lifelong friend more than a photographer

  • Serves Carlsbad, NM

I started photography in 2017 and after being a part of many weddings, engagements, and family sessions, I still love what I do and I am deeply dedicated to serving my clients. I consider myself a storyteller and love capturing the little details, the half-smiles, and the simple motions. For me, it is about seeing the real, the lovely, and the messy moments, the everyday magic that tells the stories of our lives. Each wedding and session has its own unique story to tell and I challenge myself to capture those stories through my camera as best as I can and would be honored to capture yours too!

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn’t be happier with our decision to work with Eugene for our wedding! His relaxed, easy-going vibe immediately put us at ease, which made the whole experience so enjoyable. It felt like having a close friend capturing our day, not just a photographer. The photos are breathtakingly beautiful and so true to life— just authentic moments and natural colors that perfectly captured the feel of the day. Every time we look at them, it’s like reliving our wedding all over again. Eugene was a pro at blending in seamlessly—catching the little candid moments while still guiding us gently through the posed shots when needed. He made everything feel so effortless and fun! If you want stunning photos and a photographer who makes the entire process stress-free, we can’t recommend Eugene enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
Matthew took our wedding photos back in February 2024 and we could not have asked for a better photographer. Before the wedding we had several calls and he made sure he knew how the day was going to run and what type of photos we wanted him to prioritize. We really wanted a lot of candid moments of us and our family and Matthew delivered! He captured some amazing and beautiful moments from our ceremony and many fun moments from our reception as well a little details that we did not have time to appreciate because we were so busy being the “bride and groom” in the moment! We are finally taking some time to print our photos and looking back through our gallery makes us feel like we are reliving our beautiful day over and over again. Thank you Matthew for capturing so many beautiful moments that we will look back on and cherish for the rest of our lives. Highly recommend working with him for photos that will make your heart smile.

Memories By Lindsay

  • Classic style

  • Serves Carlsbad, NM

I love capturing people at their happiest times. I'm not about forced awkward posing, I want the real kind of love, the kind of love where you are so in the moment I'm capturing the in-between when you think no one is watching. I want the steamy, intimate, kiss you on the neck, pull her hair back, smack her butt, kind of love. Capturing real moments with real people, That's photography to me.  

Awarded Best of Zola
Lindsay is always the first photographer that I recommend to any couple getting married. She is incredible and talented at what she does. Her photos tell such a genuine story - a reflection of how the Wedding Day felt - true emotions, raw moments. She captures each couple's personality story perfectly... no curation needed. She is also such a positive force to have around on what is typically a stressful and emotional day - she remains calm, will be your biggest hype woman, and will always encourage you to have fun be your most authentic selves.

He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was the best! My husband and I would not have wanted anyone else to capture our special day. He did our engagement and wedding photos and our photos came out incredible! Jason is professional, friendly, and his outgoing personality makes the shoot so comfortable and enjoyable. During our wedding, he also went above and beyond by making sure to take care of us. He knows the ups and downs of a wedding, so he would make sure we were okay by reminding us to stay hydrated and to eat, he would be so great communicating the schedule for the day, and what to expect and what to do throughout the photoshoot. So grateful for his expertise and we totally recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer.

Hello hello! My name is Marie and I am the owner and photographer for Wild Elegance. We are a brand for adventurers, for lovers of life, and genuine people who love those little moments between the moments in life and seek out truth over perfection. Your marriage is unique because of the relationships you have with the people you choose to celebrate with. Spending my day with you and your closest family and friends brings me such joy, and creating art out of some of the best moments of your life is something I am truly honored to be a part of for so many.

Awarded Best of Zola
Knowing how much of a financial investment a wedding photographer was going to be, I did not take my decision lightly. I reached out to several companies and had several questions when determining who would be the right fit. And I have to say, Marie was by far the most understanding and compassionate during that process. While many photographers seemed annoyed by the (many) questions I would ask before booking, Marie was patient and very thoughtful with her responses -- she even took time to arrange a phone call with me while traveling! And during that phone call, she made sure I didn't feel rushed and that she answered all questions I had fully, it truly felt like I was talking to a friend. That was when I made the decision to book with Marie. Beyond that, when booking the session for our Engagement photos, she brought several creative and adventurous ideas to the table and had the PERFECT locations to take us to. We had a blast together. I would recommend Marie to anyone looking for a photographer who is friendly, compassionate, accommodating and just a joy to be around.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Kiersten for my wedding, and I can't recommend her enough. From the moment we met, her professionalism and passion for photography were evident. She took the time to understand our vision and was super easy to communicate with throughout the planning process. On the big day, Kiersten was a true pro—capturing all the special moments without being intrusive. She managed to blend into the background while still getting all the key shots we wanted. The candid shots really stood out. The final photos blew us away. The quality and creativity were top-notch, and we received countless compliments from our friends and family.

Hi hi! My name is Nevaeh and I'm so honored that you have taken the time to look at my work! I am based out of both Joshua Tree, CA, and Albuquerque, NM. I am originally from New Mexico, but I moved to SoCal when I married my dreamy Marine. I have a cutesy pup names Rocky who is energetic and cuddly. I love watching Gilmore Girls and trips to the beach. I love Jesus and worship music is my jam (along with Disney music, Olivia Rodrigo, One Direction, and Shawn Mendes).

Nevaeh is not only an amazing photographer, but she’s an amazing person who is always smiling and working hard to capture the right moment. She photographed our wedding in 2020 (during Covid). It was a small outdoor wedding. She captured some amazing photos and always did so with a smile. She has so many great ideas and made it so easy to pose. She was great to work with and would recommend her to anyone in search of a photographer from family photos, senior photos to weddings. Nevaeh is your photographer!

STEPHANE LEMAIRE PHOTOGRAPHY 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Carlsbad, NM

I first started working for an Architectural Photography studio in 2001, after graduating from Photography School in Paris. Architecture photography is all about composition. I would go around the city photographing buildings and structures with those big cameras that you see in old movies. Although I gained lots of experience in photography technique and image processing in the dark room, I always felt I was missing something. In 2004, I started working for a Wedding Photography studio and photographed my first wedding. From then on I fell in love with the beautiful world of Wedding Photography, full of intense emotions and experiences.

Stephane was truly a highlight of our engagement and our wedding day! He and his assistant were incredibly thoughtful, helpful, and they made each moment meaningful! I really appreciated the fact that he spent time with us before we booked him so everyone would feel confident it was a good fit! He put it best - if he’s excited about us and our wedding, the photos will reflect that and same with us - if we’re excited about him photographing our wedding, then we’ll put our best into it! Stephane and his team were just absolutely lovely. He made sure to get the shots we asked for, but also let us have fun on the big day! I’ve seen too many couples throughout the years who get dragged out of fun dancing for photos and he was so mindful to let us have our fun and pull us away only for a second when we weren’t actively doing something! Hiring him was the best decision my husband and I made! I would do everything over in a heartbeat. My mother passed away two months before the wedding and he texted me a sweet message expressing his condolences when he found out and was incredibly respectful when I asked if he could take pictures of us visiting my mother’s grave after the ceremony. If you’re considering hiring him, please do!! You will not regret it! He’s worth every single penny and then some and he will take absolute great care of you and your spouse! My husband is the absolute pickiest guy on the planet and he’s already told Stephane that he’d like him to take our future child’s baby photos! LOL if that’s not enough of a testimony, I’m not sure what is!! Stephane, thank you and your assistant for everything!!! We had an absolute blast and we loved working with you two. We hope to work with you again soon!

So here's the tea... I'm a wise-cracking, extroverted Capricorn who excels at corralling your rowdy family for photos and charming Aunt Carol, the self-deemed professional iPad photographer. Ever since I was little, huddled on the couch with my five siblings rewatching The Lion King, I knew that I wanted to be a storyteller. Growing up in a creative household, I studied a wide range of arts before settling on filmmaking. I envisioned in my head that I would be the next Spielberg, but after shooting my first wedding in 2013 all my plans changed.

Maya Papaya Pictures was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding & engagement session. Her communication was prompt, and they truly listened to our wants and needs, responding quickly to any questions or concerns. The quality of their work exceeded our expectations - it was of the highest caliber. On the day of our wedding, Maya & Courtney helped calm the nerves of the chaotic day and worked seamlessly with our two huge and intrusive families to capture beautiful photos. We could not be happier with the memories they helped create for us. We can not wait to use Maya for any photo necessities we might need!

Hey there! Since you are trusting me to capture these special moments in your life, I figured you should probably know a bit about me, right? I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

Diana Marie Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding day. From the very beginning, Diana's communication style was open, professional, and timely - she was always checking in to make sure our day was going as we had imagined. The quality of her work is truly exceptional, with a clean, timeless, and emotional style that captured all the special moments beautifully. Diana knows the importance behind wedding photos - they aren't just a social media dump, but rather the memories we'll cherish for years to come. She reminded us to take in the little things, and that thoughtfulness really shines through in the final product. We couldn't recommend Diana Marie Photography enough for any couple looking for a talented, dedicated photographer to document their big day.

When my dress needed to be bustled , Kiera jumped right in to help without hesitation. It's the little thoughtful touches like that which make her services such incredible value for money. I'm so thrilled to have these gorgeous images to treasure for a lifetime. Any couple would be lucky to have Kiera and Endless Autumn Photography there on their special day.

First off just like that, the day got a whole lot better now that you are here! But let’s get one thing straight: if you are here, I want you to feel free to be YOU! Being true to who you are makes this process a hell of a lot easier! This is a judgment-free free safe space, and I want you to be as comfortable as humanly possible! Now that’s out the way, I'm Jovan Kiah, specializing in wedding and portrait photography located somewhere in the cornfields of Indiana. But always prepared for a photography adventure, I’m already packed with a suitcase of snacks, my passport, & playlist that spans from Disney musicals to '90s R&B hits.

Jovan was absolutely amazing to work with. On our calls before the big day, she was always happy and excited and answered all of our questions and it gave us such a sense of ease. I never once had to worry and stress about photos. Day of the wedding, she completely killed it. She was still her happy self but was able to organize us and snap some amazing photos. She worked with me on some odd family and friend dynamics and eliminated any worries I had. She did a fantastic job of catching the perfect small moments, some of which I didn’t even know she was capturing. The photos are all so naturally beautiful and I can’t even begin to describe how much we love them. They are clean and bright and show us, our personalities, and our people perfectly. 100% the best decision we made.

I booked a session with Lakyn a couple years ago for me and my boyfriends anniversary photos. She was very accommodating and super easy to work with. We have since had several sessions with her and I refuse to have anyone else do our photos. Not only is she our photographer but an incredible friend of ours. When the time finally comes she will most definitely be our wedding photographer. A couple weeks ago a friend of mine asked if she could do some photos for us for her portfolio, my boyfriend said “ absolutely not, only Lakyn does our photos“. Even with her most recent move to Texas she still has offered to do our photos when she visits home. We are so grateful for Lakyn and her incredible work!

Salt & Ivy was an absolute dream to work with. Highly communicative, professional, punctual, and absolute artists. From booking to receiving the photos, they were so amazing to work with. I (the bride) am typically very uncomfortable taking photographs. This was the first time in my life that I was actually at ease and having fun. 10/10 would and will book them again in the future for family/maternity photographs.

We've been photographing and videotaping weddings and events for over 24 years. We really enjoy being able to document a this special time in a couple's beginning. Often times we become friends with them and get to follow their life journey after the wedding by also documenting other special moments like births, birthdays and more.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Jamie and Crystalline Photography & Video was amazing! She was so communicative during the preparation process and after the wedding. During the wedding, she made sure we knew that she was on top of things and assisted where needed, but then we barely saw her or her team which was exactly what we needed to be able to enjoy the wedding! Afterwards, she sent us an online gallery of photos so we could look at them as well as our highlight reel while we were waiting for the video and the rest of the photos, all which she communicated via email in detail. Jamie also sent me reminders of when payments were due (and as a forgetful ADHD bride, I greatly appreciated that). Jamie and her team produced INCREDIBLE work and I’m so happy I picked Crystalline Photography & Video to document our wedding! Thank you!!

The pictures and edits turned out beautiful. His attention to detail went beyond my expectations when I saw the incredible work… He made a crowded beach look like we were the only ones there! Can’t thank Tommy enough for listening to my vision and making it even better!

I am lucky; I get to do what I love for a living, have a ton of fun doing it, and meet a lot of great people along the way. It's a bonus that I get to also travel a lot for it as well. I hope to always bring that enthusiasm and fun to every wedding as well. I tell myself before every wedding to treat it like it was my very first. I do only weddings, and I only do 30 per year. This lets me focus on my couples and their weddings, and to tell their stories completely. Over 400 weddings spanning 12+ years. And I have never missed a one. Not even late. I may not take myself too seriously, but I take my commitment to my couple seriously.

Kids were actually laughing and smiling, not just for the camera. Would recommend Taylor to anyone looking for a photographer.

I believe that getting to know my clients is the #1 way to ensure an awesome experience, I’d love to tell you a little about me: I am married to my highschool sweetheart, I love animals but horses and dogs are my favorites (so if you ever want to include your fur baby in your session the answer is always YES), I live just outside Fayetteville, NC but I LOVE to travel, and I love creating beautiful images but more importantly, I love serving couples and their families on one of the greatest days of their lives

Kaytlyn Dempster Photography was an exceptional choice for our wedding photographer. From the start, Kaytlyn's communication was positive, responsive, and effective, putting us at ease throughout the planning process. Her high-quality photos not only captured the key moments of our special day, but also the overall feeling and emotion. Kaytlyn masterfully balanced candid and staged shots, efficiently navigating the group photos, and sensitively handling our complex family dynamics. We highly recommend Kaytlyn Dempster Photography, as her work, attitude, and stunning photographs made our wedding day even more perfect and have given us beautiful memories to cherish forever.
