Salt and Ivy Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Chicago, IL for additional fees

SWFL based husband and wife team who love to story tell with authentic and emotive imagery. We have been in business for over 10+ years and have traveled all over to document love. Each wedding for us is a brand new experience, and we treat each couple like they are our own friends. We understand that this is a huge investment not only financially but emotionally - so we put in every bit of effort to make sure you get exactly what you wanted.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot recommend Amanda/Salt Ivy Photography enough. When choosing a photographer for our wedding and for our post-wedding mountaintop shoot (instead of an engagement photoshoot), we wanted a photographer who had a unique artistic vision who produced dynamic and emotional shots. We wanted photography that really stood out and was not the run of the mill wedding photography. Most of all, we wanted photography that captured the authentic emotional connection we have and the incredible energy of our big day. When I saw Amanda's work, I knew she was the one. Not only was her work absolutely STUNNING, but she was incredible to work with. We had to change our wedding date 3 total times due to Covid... and even moved it out of state halfway through... Amanda was always flexible, understanding, accommodating and encouraging. The day of the wedding she was calm, loving, fun, and her energy really made the day even more special. Our post-wedding hike/photoshoot the next day was one of the most enjoyable parts of our entire wedding experience. Amanda is not only a phenomenal photographer and artist, but an even better human. 10000000000000/10 recommend.

Allie Amber Photo

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,550
  • Serves Chicago, IL for additional fees

I have a passion for travel and I love meeting new people and hearing their crazy (or not so crazy) stories. I love trying new things and walking around a new city until my feet bleed (that's literally happened...still love you tho, NYC). I'm a major extrovert, but I have a great appreciation for the little things in life. You'll likely find me sipping some strong coffee at a local café or snuggled up on the couch with some wine, pizza, and my husband on a rainy day. With a camera in hand, I am probably the most annoying person to travel with, stopping every ten feet to take a picture. Sorry not sorry.

Awarded Best of Zola
Allie did a fantastic job with not only our wedding, but our engagement photos as well! She understood what we wanted the photos to look like and made the shoots themselves so fun! My husband does not like being in photos, but she was able to create an experience where we were able to get many great photos of us that felt natural. I have gotten many compliments from friends and family on our photos and I have Allie to thank for that - could not sing higher praises!

I am located in Chicago, IL and I LOVE photography. I am inspired by the fun and wild couples who are looking for an adventure. Wherever there is fun, laughter, and good company, I'M THERE.

My name is Brettina and I am a wedding and family photographer. I live in Michigan but travel all over the world! My goal is to make you feel comfortable and beautiful, because you are.

Blackcap Photography

  • Classic style

  • Serves Chicago, IL for additional fees

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.

Cody is very personable, accommodating and enthusiastic. His ability to see a vision and capture through his lens is second to none. Having watched him work with hundreds of brides and seeing the results you know he is a true artist. All of his positive attributes made it a simple decision to utilize his talents for our family photos. We unequivocally support Cody and are confident he will capture your special moments.

I’m Erika and I am a self-taught photographer, hiker enthusiast, travel lover and proud dog mama! I started my photography journey at 18 years old. I always loved art, but I never thought this newfound love would lead me down an exciting path where I get to do what I love for a living. Thanks to the trust that my clients put in me, I get to do what I do best — and that’s create.

Erika is one of the most talented photographers I ever met. As wedding planner and designer I get to work with many great photographers but she is definitely one of my top to refer to. She will make you feel so comfortable, relaxed and you will have fun with this fun energetic lady who will capture every single moment of pure happiness. She is sweet, easy to communicate with and she gets you! Working with her is absolute pleasure every time!

Storyteller Collective Photo Co

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Chicago, IL for additional fees

Storyteller Collective Photo Co., proudly located in Ames and serving the vibrant community of Des Moines, Iowa, and beyond. I began this company many moons ago with a solid purpose - to make people feel something and to evoke genuine emotions through my photography. My passion lies in documenting individuals as they live their best lives, immersed in the activities and passions that fuel their souls. As a non-traditional photographer, I thrive on capturing authentic memories rather than elaborate setups. It's about freezing moments in time that speak volumes and resonate deeply with those who experience them.

I have worked with Storyteller Collective as a second photographer (wedding), and she is so relaxed and also efficient. She works with a sense of urgency but doesn't rush her clients. She knows her stuff when it comes to weddings and knows exactly how to arrange the day so that it serves her client. She's also very, very good at adapting when things change (like when it rains on an outdoor ceremony) and reassuring her clients that we've still got it covered. She is a really good person who is fun to work with. She produces high quality work on the regular and her work is so beautiful!

Light and bright, timeless photographs and videos for weddings and couples. ND, New England & CA based, available for travel. I describe myself as kind of Type A, kind of Type B. When it comes to photographing your wedding, I take a mixed approach of being a "fly on the wall" and guiding when appropriate. Lots of times my couples see their galleries and noticed things they had no clue even happened during the day. Candids and true documentary style photographs are what I strive to provide, as well as traditional photographs and poses.

Rebecca y Las Otras 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Chicago, IL for additional fees

I am a documentary wedding photographer -- I'm all about capturing real moments. In my photographs, I’m always shooting with an eye for color, light, and dynamic shadows. I integrate these technical aspects with my background in film, literature and storytelling so with every wedding, I create a series of documentary photos that recreates the authentic narrative of a day. I’m always chasing the candid, the emotional, even the un-noticed everyday details; things that make you do a double take, little moments that make your heart swell.

Awarded Best of Zola
I showed my best friend some of Rebecca’s work when we were searching for photographers and she marveled that the folks in Rebecca’s photos “feel so much more like real people than other shoots like this.” That precisely captures Rebecca’s work + energy and confirmed our decision to work with her! We worked with Rebecca for our elopement ceremony and our tea ceremony and it was truly a special experience. Rebecca made an huge effort to know and support us as a couple before the event, which helped us trust that she would be there to capture all the right moments and then some! Our family and friends all loved her and we got many questions about how we knew her and if she was a friend of ours (she is now!); this really speaks to her kind, open, and genuine presence. She moved the event along while also treating everyone with respect and compassion. We already knew that her work was incredible and we couldn’t be happier with our own results. We cannot recommend Rebecca enough! You’ll get beautiful, soulful photos and the chance to have an amazing human in your life if you book her!

I don’t take myself too seriously. I like to have a good time. I spelI things how i want and I will never wait for a crosswalk. I prefer quality over quantity. Unless we’re talking about coffee, chocolate, wine, shopping, and deals…then i want quality and quantity. I’ve got a potty mouth and a good heart. I give so many fucks about what I do. The details, the experience and creating some real good imagery. I’m an artist and I want to create something beautiful for you.

Awarded Best of Zola
There are truly not enough wonderful things to say about Andria: our wedding simply would not have been as magical as it was without her. She was immediately part of our family, fixing my mom's hair clip, giving me advice on how to use the bathroom in a wedding dress (facing the wall!) calming my best friend's nerves, complimenting my grandmother. She was at once everywhere and nowhere at all, capturing EVERY moment in such beautiful, incredible detail and yet never ever pulling focus or getting in the way. Her photos speak for themselves and I can't possibly put into words how incredible she is behind a lens, but I will say that looking at each of the 1,400 photos she sent us (SO quickly and with tons of gracious communication) instantly transports me to each precious moment of the best day of my life. I can't possibly overstate my gratitude or recommend her highly enough-- look no further, lucky reader. You've found your photographer!!

I’m Stacy Able, a professional photographer based in Indianapolis, Indiana. My passion for photography began with my Bachelor’s of Science degree from Clemson University in Graphic Communications. I specialize in local and destination weddings and have captured over 350+ celebrations. My photography assignments have taken me from right here in Indy My photography assignments have taken me from Illinois, California, Washington State, North Carolina, Florida, and New York along with international destinations such as: Guatemala, Italy, Mexico, Canada, and the Dominican Republic.

I can't think of anything Stacy and her second-shooter, Walter, could have done better. They melted into the background when it was time for candid shots, they took command when people needed to be wrangled for group shots, and they went above and beyond to make the day as perfect as possible. The best example is Walter going and getting our dog from the hotel room so we could get some shots with him. The photos are beautiful too! As someone who is typically not very photogenic, I am amazed at how many gorgeous photos of me Stacy captured. 10/10, absolutely would hire again and we may travel back to the location of our out-of-day wedding in the future for her to photograph future milestones. Thank you Stacy and Walter!

There’s something to be said about understanding another person. Sometimes you experience it in conversation. You know the feeling: interactions that leave you and that other person thinking, wow; we just said the Exact. Same. Thing. But if you’re lucky it’ll go deeper; understanding that person so much that you begin to anticipate what they may say or do. It's what makes our partnership so strong. As brothers, we understand each other, and we feel it shows in our work. But our greatest joy comes from sharing our work with you. To have all the memories of your day come flooding back to you in waves is magical, and it never gets old.

Our entire experience from start to finish was amazing. We received exactly what we wanted in out wedding photos as well as quite a few unique ideas that they came up with based on our personalities. Brighton and Basette were professional and fun! Their presence felt more like family than it did a vendor. In addition to our experience, the quality of our photos was beyond exceptional! They have unique style that made our photos stand out against the traditional style. They have a way of capturing natural emotions and not making things look posed or unnatural.

Some fun facts about me: North shore is my favorite, I love traveling, waterfall hunting, and spending time with family and friends.

Hi all, I’m Erin! I’m a wedding photographer based in Minneapolis but I’m always up for a destination or travel wedding/elopement. I feel my favorite images are always ones that are captured vs manufactured and embracing the true interactions between the couple, their friends and family. I LOVE love and I’ll probably cry at your wedding, all those feels get me.

Awarded Best of Zola
Erin was absolutely wonderful to work with. We did both our engagement and wedding photos with her and were blown away by the everything she captured for us. She is professional, yet laid back and fun to work with. She made us feel totally at ease with the process. We opted for a second shooter for our wedding, and we are so glad we did! Erin and Brandon were able to capture so many candid moments from our day, and were so creative with locations and poses for our photos. We cannot speak more highly of Erin and her services, 100/10 would recommend!

Mary is amazing to work with! She’s there to capture all the moments with an ease and joy that immediately helps you feel comfortable and at ease (even when I tend to be uncomfortable the second a camera is pointed my way…she helped diffuse any awkwardness and bring out the natural). I loved that she captured not only the specific shots we wanted but also caught the little meaningful in between moments and came full of fun ideas. She shows up and immediately feels like someone you’ve known forever, I couldn't recommend her enough :)

Liz Jahl Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

Liz Jahl Photography is a visual storyteller based in the heart of Canton, Georgia. From elegant elopements to lavish wedding receptions, enthusiastic photographer Liz strives to capture every joyful occasion with updated equipment and a flair for details. Using natural and lifestyle techniques, you can receive pictures that are filled with precious, candid moments.

I had the pleasure of working with Liz on a wedding with three different location changes. This can be very strategically difficult for all vendors, but especially for those who are providing photography and videography. Liz was so easy to work with, and went with the flow as things changed (which they always do!)! She was so great to capture amazing moments, but never be in the way. As a wedding planner, who your photographer is, can make a big difference day-of and I would recommend Liz to anyone!

Hi friend! Grace here. I’m from a small town in south-central PA, where I was raised on the great outdoors, drive-in movies, & board games. My husband is my best friend & we have an adorable toddler keeping us on our toes! We're all about Jesus, our people, traveling, coffee shops & our two Aussies. I’m a big advocate of seeing new places, deep talks under the stars & being near the mountains any chance I can get. I believe that marriage begins with a promise & a lifetime of memories follow after that. My clients are my friends & I feel privileged to begin this adventure with you!

I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. She was sooo easy to work with. Her visions aligned with mine, she was efficient and so sweet. I truly trusted her with everything in me and she did not disappoint! She traveled across the country for us and was a 10/10 human being and professional photographer. You need her!!

Hi, I’m Lizzie! I am a Colorado-based couples and intimate wedding photographer who loves to travel! Part of my childhood was spent in Bamberg, Germany and the other half in central Texas. I moved to Colorado a few years ago so now I serve Colorado, Texas, and beyond!

We feel so lucky to have Lizzie in our lives! We booked her for our wedding, which was a very intimate gathering in the mountains. She fit right in! We love her photography style and she checked all our boxes of what and how we wanted our special day captured. She even met us at the venue a bit before the ceremony to familiarize herself with the spaces! We appreciate how much she went above and beyond for us! We have since used Lizzie for anniversary photos and plan to continue to do so!

A Charleston Wedding Photographer with a fierce love for storytelling, fostering memories and capturing those moments that you will want to treasure forever. I get to tell your story. And, I think that’s pretty cool. I love traveling everywhere and anywhere, talking with my hands, buying plants (and attempting to keep them alive), and spending as much time as I can with my loved ones. I have lived in Boston, Paris, and New York City, and am now lucky enough to call Charleston home, while also still traveling the world for my clients. You can usually find me on my back porch in downtown Charleston, right next to my favorite little park.

Jessica is a joy to have a part of any wedding! Her work is beautiful and she captures the love and emotions of her couples' biggest day. From the beginning of the planning process, until the photos arrive in your inbox, she always puts the couples' needs and wants as her priority. Her organization, professionalism, and calming composure are exactly what couples need out of their photographer!

My name is Cecilia but you can call me Cece. I'm so happy you are here. I'm married to the love of my life and together we have three rambunctious little boys. I'm based in Utah and I LOVE traveling. If your wedding is out of state I would love to come to you. I have always found joy in taking photos. It wasn't until I got pregnant with my first child that I developed a strong passion for photography. When I'm not taking pictures I enjoy exercising, reading books, and hanging out with my family & friends

Awarded Best of Zola
Cecilia captured our wedding day at Brighton Resort in the mountains. She was so personable and really got to know my fiance and I. She listened to what we wanted and delivered plus so much more! She was even dancing on the dance floor to drum up excitement and capture our friends' energy. I would book her again 10 times over! Best decision!
