Miles & Moments Photography

  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Challenge, CA for additional fees

Hi, I’m Taylor, the proud owner of Miles and Moments Photography! Born and raised in SE Michigan, I’ve always had a passion for capturing life’s most special moments. Whether it’s the vibrant colors of a sunset or the joy in someone’s smile, I strive to create timeless memories through my lens. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me exploring new places. With my bubbly personality and knack for making people laugh, I promise you’ll feel at ease and have fun during every shoot. My goal is simple: to make sure you feel comfortable, confident, and relaxed while we create beautiful photos together.

Taylor did our family photos and they turned out perfect! My kids and husband can be stubborn and do not like "fake" forced moments but Taylor's personality helped them feel at ease and everyone truly had a great time during our session. Kids were actually laughing and smiling, not just for the camera. Would recommend Taylor to anyone looking for a photographer.

You truly have a talent for this! She got sneak peeks within 24 hours!!!! Also her editing skills are . I broke my foot and had surgery a month before my wedding and she took my scars off my foot and she made my photos look amazing you can’t even tell I only was able to stand on 1 leg. She is amazing!!!! I can’t say that enough!!

Hey! Hello! What's happening? I'm Erika, owner and lead photographer of It Clicks Photo. I love learning about your love story, how you knew your significant other was the one, and any embarrassing stories you two have endured over time. I'm sure I have a few I feel the need to tell you about, too! I'm a very accepting, down to earth lady who values and appreciates your authentic- straight to the core- self. Capturing your wedding day fills me with life, and makes me feel all butterfly-ish and bubbly inside. Can't wait to meet you both! (PS- I love to travel! There isn't a place I won't go- honestly.)

It Clicks Photo is simply the best! They were one of the first vendors that we picked and it was the easiest choice! The photos are bright, cheery and have a timeless quality to them! Our first meeting with Erika was over Zoom, which was so convenient, and we knew almost immediately that she was the person we wanted to spend our wedding day with! Erika has a bright, calm energy which is what any bride needs on her big day. Sarah was so chill and sweet. Together, Erika and Sara were one stellar duo! We cannot say anough good about them. We received a sneak peek that night and and extended sneak peek before our honeymoon! We were able to request edits, but the pictures were so great, the only edits I really requested were silly things like fixing my worn lipstick! I have so many great things to say, but the pictures are all you need to make a decision! Book them now!

Hi! I’m Patience! Thank you for checking out my portfolio! I am a destination photographer specializing in weddings and life events. I’m originally from Africa and a hopeless romantic who loves love. I am here to help you turn your vision into reality the way you want it no matter where it takes place.

If you’re looking for someone who will get the job done and go above and beyond, Patty is the one. She has a keen eye for detail and not to mention, her editing is close to true to color and is not over saturated. I absolutely love light and airy. I hired Patty because her photos were amazing! Can I say magazine worthy? Not only that, I have a tan complexion and my husband is white, I needed someone who could capture and edit both our skin tones the right way, which I feel like is hard for a lot of photographers. I’m so happy I didn’t turn out look orange or yellow. She definitely has a diverse portfolio which drew me in. Also, as a seasoned wedding professional myself, I can say Patty is very dedicated to making sure you get everything you asked for. She executes seamlessly, no doubt! Not to mention she’s so fun to be around, which is a bonus!!

At Chelsey Rae Evans Photography, we offer intimate elopements, wedding celebrations, and engagement sessions. My goal is to create an elevated experience using intentional artistry and an editorial style that allows you to feel your best self while finding joy in effortless moments. I'm very easy going, and you'll never be pressured to be anyone but yourself! If you cherish your wedding day photos and want moments that wow while making you feel your natural, beautiful self, then we're the right fit! Think of documentary photos that set the scene and tell a story in a fashion-forward way.

John and I got engaged in our hometown but decided to do a destination wedding. We found dozens of photographers but Chelsey's photos really stuck out to us because it was exactly what we wanted. We reached out and she got back to us the next day (We messaged her at like 11 at night). From there on, she personalized the entire experience for us, all the way from meeting for the first time, planning our style and what we wanted, down to the exact fine details of specific shots that we wanted (And many more that she recommended) . I had no idea how detailed photography can be! But when our pictures came back, I simply could not believe the level of attention she took. Chelsey is not just great at what she does, she's very friendly and is truly genuine in caring about the people she works with. Girl... if I can nominate you somewhere, let me know. I'll fill that form out immediately! :)

Hello! My name is Katya! I am thrilled you are interested in choosing me to document your special day! I believe that choosing a wedding photographer is about more than just hiring someone with a camera to document your day. Your wedding photographer should be someone who inspires you, and someone who eases wedding day jitters. And, hopefully someone who eventually becomes a friend. I'm excited to give you a little tour so you can learn more about me - the process of working together - and my wedding collections!

Katya was so amazing to work with! She was so efficient, kind, and took gorgeous photos! The spot she took us in Farragut had a beautiful background and was perfect! The photos turned out so beautiful and were everything we were hoping for! I got married at a church, and so the lighting was difficult, but Katya still managed to take great photos inside as well! Thank you Katya, for doing such a wonderful job!

I LOVE love and I’ll probably cry at your wedding, all those feels get me.

I can't imagine anyone better to work with for our wedding pics. Erin effortlessly met our vibe and helped us keep everything calm, cool, and moving right along. She was essential in helping us nail down a timeline that maximized our priorities but also resulted in an incredible variety of photos that perfectly captured the day. We ended up with so many photos we loved that our moms scheduled a day to reminisce on the wedding and go back through the pics together. Everything 10/10, can't recommend enough!

HI! I am Anastasia (she/her), your Northern California elopement and wedding photographer and so much more. My passion for photography began when I was a child. It started as a hobby when I fell in love with photographing families and babies. Over the years I realized I adore documenting couples, in all stages of their relationships. I know they say we should specialize in one type of photography, but I am not sure I can ever do that. I love to create and I get bored with only doing one thing.

Anastasia was simply amazing to work with. She values her customers and she absolutely takes pride in her work. Anastasia was communicative with us from beginning to end and we valued Anastasia’s honest and knowledgable feedback about our venues (we ultimately dodged a bullet with our first selected venue). We were highly impressed that she provided us our sample gallery in record time! And we received our full gallery in the promised timeframe. We hope to do a couples session with her when we return the Monterey area!

Photographing a couple's love story is something I never take for granted. It is an honor & privilege to create art for my couples. My absolute favorite thing to do is illustrate your love story, your adventure, your favorite memories. Let's create some magic!

Ashley is the best in the business. Period. We were initially incredibly excited to discover Ashley had our wedding date available, however, the result she delivered exceeded all expectations. Not only did she make us feel incredibly comfortable during the personal shots, but she caught moments in which I was completely unaware of her presence. If you are lucky enough, hire Ashley to capture moments that you will cherish for the rest of your life. Five stars is not sufficient to describe the experience Ashley provides for her clients.

I am a destination wedding & elopement photographer + planner based in New Mexico. I am originally from the small college town of Lexington, Kentucky, but before long my family moved to Toronto, Canada. Fast forward a handful of years, we moved to Nashville where I finished up elementary school and attended high school. I graduated from UTK in the spring of May 2020 with a BS in marketing and a collateral in entrepreneurship. After graduation I moved down to Florida to be with my partner who is stationed in the area and this past year we got moved to NM! I am an avid traveler & learner!

Audrey is the best. She went above and beyond for my wedding which seemed so natural that she must do it for all. We had 3 phone calls since we lived far away. Ahead of the wedding she put together detailed timelines for myself and all those involved. We made edits together and we explored different package options. I had a large wedding where my Husband and I were getting ready at different locations, a Catholic Church Ceremony and a different location for reception. Audrey managed with ease. She has the calmest demeanor and the best art came from the day. I received “Sneak Peaks” of almost 80 photos within 2 days which was a shock to me. Upon opening them, the photographs were so beautiful we couldn’t even believe these were from our day. I HIGHLY recommend Audrey for your wedding. Big or Small, Formal or Informal. She is the girl. BTW her second shooter, Lauren quite literally saved our wedding ceremony when I forgot the rings. Lauren tracked down the limo driver and delivered the rings discreetly to the alter!

Hey Friend! Photography is my absolute passion and it shines through my images!!! I live for the RAW moments... the true emotion of the day. Tears that fall during a first look, the last hug with your loved ones before you walk down the aisle, and the ear to ear smiles once you've said "I Do!" I blend candid and guided shots, giving you the freedom to move about the day to enjoy it, while never having the thought of “what should I be doing” running through your mind! You'll be able to look back on your wedding photos 40 years from now and FEEL the emotions you felt that day. That's my promise to you!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Lauren for our wedding, and I truly can’t recommend her enough! From the moment we first met her, it was clear that she wasn’t just passionate about photography—she genuinely cared about capturing the essence of our day in the most beautiful, authentic way possible. Lauren has an extraordinary eye for detail. She doesn’t just take pictures; she captures moments—the spontaneous smiles, the glances exchanged, the raw emotions. From the very beginning, she made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera—something neither of us was used to. She took the time to understand our style and personalities, and tailored her approach to fit that perfectly. On the day of the wedding, her calm and positive energy was a grounding presence amid all the excitement. Lauren made the entire process feel seamless and enjoyable, from our engagement shoot to the wedding day and beyond. She’s a true artist, and her work will be cherished by us for years to come. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who is not only professional but will go above and beyond to capture your most important moments, look no further than Lauren. She exceeded every expectation we had, and we are forever grateful! Thank you, Lauren, for giving us memories that will last a lifetime!

Welcome to Taira Marie Photography, we are excited that you have found us! Take your time browsing around to learn a little bit about us and our style. We are here for you if you have any questions and are looking forward to connecting with you!

Deciding on a wedding photographer is not an easy task because you know these are once-in-a-lifetime memories to be captured, but choosing and working with Taira Marie Photography was nothing short of extraordinary. We discovered their Instagram through our Wedding venue, as they had worked together on some events and photoshoots, and I was immediately drawn to the photography style. It was completely serendipitous to find out that they had our wedding date available and hit it off with their team on our first meeting. Our package came with an engagement shoot, which gave us an opportunity to really get comfortable in front of the cameras, they turned out lovely and we realized how truly passionate Taira is about her job. The photography team worked with us to hit every "shot list" photo we wanted to get on our big day and captured the most beautiful details. Taira and Joey felt like family at our wedding and have been so good to us with their communication and professionalism. Our wedding album just arrived (hand-delivered too!) and it's amazing, I'll never forget how we felt that day because it's so wonderfully and thoroughly portrayed with their photography.

I got my first digital camera at 13 and spent the afternoons capturing flowers in our backyard; ever since it's been my dream to have my own photography business. Photography and writing were the two ways I expressed myself and were their own kind of therapy for me. And now, I use photography as a type of therapy for my clients. I believe there is a power in the vulnerability of being and feeling seen. So, photography is my tool to help others feel truly seen and celebrated. It's so important to make everyone feel this way, especially on their elopement/wedding day :)

Hailey and I met at a retreat where I had the opportunity to get to know her working style + art + personality. What you need to know about Hailey, beyond her incredibly crafted images, is that she is a kind, gentle, and intuitive human. Hailey has a remarkable ability to listen + to discern the needs of those around her. She takes the time and has the care to get to know her subjects in a way that allows them to truly feel seen. I believe that Hailey uses this vulnerability superpower to create the beautiful images you see in her portfolio. When you hire Hailey you will be left in awe at not only the photographs you recieve but also the beautiful impression she leaves on you heart.

Hey y’all! You can call me Lyss, Lyssa, the wild woman with the clunky camera.. whatever floats your boat. You’re here for one reason and one reason only, to see if we are a good fit for your special day. Whether that day is hiking in mother nature with your partner or taking a deep dive into a self-love journey with boudoir (even as a couple), I. AM. HERE. FOR. IT! I’ve been in business since 2019 and am profoundly in love with love. I pride myself on creating an adventurous experience for the madly in love & capturing your candid intimacy.

Alyssa was one of my photographers for my wedding in February and I honestly could not have asked for a better person to be there for my big day. She has a calming presence and is so kind and patient. Wedding days can be so stressful but having Alyssa as not only a photographer but a friend was so great and really made the day so much more memorable. Not to mention her photos and style is absolutely stunning. She is so fun and delivers the most magical, beautiful photos. 10/10 recommend!!!

Hiring a photographer was not originally part of the plan for our elopement but I am SO happy we decided to go for it, and even more happy we hired Caitlyn! Our day was captured perfectly and every moment is so beautifully retold through the photos. Her style is exactly the look we wanted and her attention to detail is much appreciated, we couldn’t be any more happy with how they turned out. We already have multiple printed and hanging throughout the house!

I was a photojournalist before I fell in love with weddings. So if you're looking for real, rad, & wildly romantic moments and memories, I'm your girl. Because you don't want average, run of the mill photos. And you don't want to remember how you were told to "Pose" your hand right there, like that. Hell no. This is YOUR story, your love, your experience. You're incredible and your day will be amazing. Your photos should be too. That's why I created an entire wedding experience that’s all about YOU. Because you want a tangible reminder of what your amazing day FELT like.

Of all my wedding vendors... Mindy was the one who we *didn't* worry about!! Mindy is the chosen one!! When we got engaged, we both agreed that the one thing we absolutely had to find is the best photographer. And we did... Mindy! She is hands down the BEST person to work with. Wedding planning is stressful, but we felt so at ease knowing we had Mindy by our side. She was attentive, creative, great listener and problem solver, professional, and an incredibly FUN person to work with. And our photos are INCREDIBLE. When we look at them, it's like we're re-living our day all over again. I truly feel like she captured our day perfectly and we're so grateful to have our photos to look back on for the rest of our lives. I HIGHLY recommend using her for any and all events you want photographed. You won't regret it.

We are partners in life and in business. We can't get over working together! We've been married over 10 years and have 4 beautiful kiddos together. Sam loves capturing wedding films and Grace loves wedding photography. We are goofy and love Star Wars, home brewing, and trying new things!

We love our wedding pictures and video from Sam & Grace! I encourage you to read the rest of this review, but before you continue, do yourself a favor and call to book Sam & Grace before someone else does. You can thank me later. Just like you, we were looking for a photographer and cinematographer to capture our wedding day. A family friend highly recommended Sam & Grace, who had used them a few months prior for their own wedding. We shopped around to compare prices. Their services were, by far, the best value. However, we received much more than a fair price; we had the pleasure of working with two great people. From day one, Grace and Sam went above and beyond the typical expectations of a wedding photographer. They laid out a process that helped manage the stress of our big day. They not only provided a timeline and details for pictures, but also helped coordinate other vendors and moving parts throughout the night. We had several touch point meetings leading up to our wedding. It sounds simple, but the logistics for our wedding were not typical. The wedding was held in OH, but the bride was in SC and the groom in FL. This just added complexity to our process. That said, Sam and Grace's expertise made preparations that much easier. We greatly appreciated all of Grace’s insight and suggestions to make sure everything went smoothly. They also took great consideration to listen to us and really understand how we envisioned our wedding day. And when our wedding day came, Sam and Grace executed! From the first picture of getting ready to the final picture for our send off, Sam and Grace were there. They were in constant communication with the event planner and DJ, helping to stick to the timeline and capturing all of our important moments along the way. However, most importantly, they made sure we were happy. I specifically remember when we sat down to begin eating. While Grace was snapping away, she noticed a slight concern on our faces. Grace came over, asked us what was the matter, and then took it upon herself to notify the event planner that there was a mistake with our food. Again, not her job, but one less detail we did not have to worry about. The venue quickly apologized and took measures to resolve the error. If you are not convinced yet, all you have to do is look at Sam and Grace's work. Oftentimes, couples have to hold their breath to see how their pictures turn out. That’s not the case with these two professionals. Just look on their Facebook page and Youtube channel. You will see that time and time again, they deliver. Actually, after all was said and done, and they had posted our pictures and video, my husband and I thought we should have paid them more than what they had asked! Sam and Grace under promised and over delivered. That said, if you are looking for detailed professionals, who have a gift for capturing special moments, look no further than this beautiful and kind couple.

Hi loves! I’m Amanda, a San Diego based traveling photographer devoted to documenting romantic wedding moments and preserving the essence of the big day with imagery. I absolutely love having fun with my couples and getting them comfortable in being exactly who they are to capture in images! I have been a photographer for 10+ years and have fallen in love with being the person who showcases a couple’s love through creative imagery. I’ll be your biggest hype man, get you laughing with your partner and capture every emotional moment that should never be forgotten!

Amanda and KC are the REAL deal. We had the absolute pleasure of working with Amanda for several events, including our intimate wedding in France and our larger celebration in the Central Coast of California. From start to finish, Amanda was the calm within the storm. Our family members and other vendors raved about her for days after—she truly was the glue that held us all together! Amanda is exceptionally professional, timely, and communicative. We were absolutely blown away by Amanda’s shots. She has a fresh take on classic, timeless photos and was super responsive to our own vision. We look genuinely comfortable in our photos, reflecting the awesome connection we had with Amanda. Amanda and her partner KC also shot our larger California celebration as a team. They both worked seamlessly together, delivering the same level of professionalism and skill. Amanda and KC are so much fun that we actually forced them to put down their cameras and dance with us at the end of the night. I really can’t recommend Amanda enough for anyone in need of an event photographer. She and KC will exceed your expectations, just like they did for us.

We have enough stress in our everyday lives, and I refuse to add any more of it into yours. That's why I do everything I can to make your photography experience as stress-free as possible. This means answering your emails quickly, freely sharing all of my knowledge & expertise with you, and walking alongside you throughout your entire planning process.

I've been recommending and working with Liz personally for my company's branding (I am a wedding planner) as well as with our mutual wedding couples. She is not only a talented photographer but her ability to put couples at ease in front of the lens, show true and candid emotion through her work, and her promptness in communication are some of the many highlights of working with Liz. I can easily jump into a laidback conversation as equally as we can discuss business - the kind of friend and professional you want on your wedding dream team! I have nothing but amazing things to say about Liz and her work - truly an up and coming gem!

Hi! I'm so glad you’re here! My name is Jahzel (pronounced Giselle). I’m a hopeless romantic, a wife, a mom, a friend, a lover of adventure. These roles have played a big part in pointing me towards photography. I have found that the small everyday things are what make life beautiful.

We cannot say enough great things about Jahzel! From our engagement shoot to our wedding reception - she made us feel comfortable and cared for. Not only are her photos stunning, she is a pleasure to work with and makes the photo experience more fun and special. She also has incredible attention to detail and paid attention to every item on our shot list as well as incorporated poses from some of our inspiration photos - truly going above and beyond to bring our vision to life while infusing her own incredible creativity and style.

For over a decade our photographers have been providing mesmerizing photos and élite grade results. After traveling the four continents for years we have decided to call Las Vegas, NV our home but it was not easy to say farewell to California, so we began providing our services in both beautiful states simultaneously. Eventually we came up with a united mindset, a wonderful team and a plan to start our company and continue providing great service in most major areas of photography. Since photography is our passion and providing astonishing customer service is our goal, we guarantee stunning photos and the best experience one can ask for.
