Aanna Chase Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Colton, SD

Hello! My name is Aanna and I can't wait to meet you. When I was seven years old, my parents gifted me with a tape recorder. It became my aim to document life in my home and beyond—an ongoing narration. Fast forward a few years and I brought my journalism to a new level when I spent my hard earned money on a camera. The rest is history—and a longer story for a future coffee date :) For as long as I can remember, I have been observing and responding to the stories and visuals around me; and it has only become more exciting with every person I meet and event I photograph!

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Aanna was an absolute dream for our wedding! She is truly a one woman show and spent 8 hours with us and never missed a shot. She was incredibly helpful in making us feel comfortable in front of the camera and was able to capture us beautifully in both candid and curated shots. There was excellent communication that helped our day run smoothly and stress free. We have received some teaser photographs back and are absolutely stunned with her artistic ability! 10/10 would recommend her to any couple out there for their photographer, we could not be happier!!!!!

If you are reading this review, congratulations — you're likely about to hire one of the best photographers in the Midwest. (And, luckily for everyone else, he'll travel anywhere.) Michael is so talented and creative, and I've been fortunate to enjoy his work over the years as both a friend and a client. I've also worked alongside him in the wedding industry when I used to do wedding videography. He is professional, fun, and always up for adventure. He isn't afraid to think out of the box when it comes to photos. Your wedding photos certainly won't look just like everyone else's. If you're planning a unique wedding that perfectly captures who you are, Michael is your guy. He finds the best things about each couple and captures them perfectly. Have a crazy idea? He'll do it. Want to elope in Antarctica? He's already booked his ticket, probably. (One time he shot a wedding in Fargo, drove back to Sioux Falls through the night, hopped on a plane the next morning, and I picked him up in Denver a few hours later to shoot another wedding. He doesn't give an 'eff about nothin' — he'll do it.) (If you're planning a boring, stereotypical wedding, he'll do an amazing job of that, too. Just know that this guy is up for adventure.) On your wedding day, you may notice his calm and confident demeanor. He makes each couple feel comfortable by giving just enough direction for photos, while still letting the moments play out naturally. You will feel so comfortable with him, and he'll make sure the schedule of your day runs smoothly. So, hire the guy. You won't regret it for a second. Then, when you see how fantastic your photos turn out, print 'em out and slap 'em on your walls forever. Then, be sure to send Michael a bottle of fine scotch for a job well done.

Kylee Jade - Photographer

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Colton, SD

California born, Minnesota raised, currently enjoying life in Sioux Falls, SD with my husband and a quirky turtle named Hermione. Lover of Jesus, good food, Star Wars, and books. You deserve a wedding without stress and "we have to's" - a celebration that feels comfortable, fun, & true to your personalities. I love helping couples simply feel like themselves on their wedding day; creating space for them to make memories instead of just photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
We chose Kylee for the diversity and liveliness she has on display at a wedding expo, and she didn't disappoint! She was fantastic to work with in our wedding day, from the preplanning to the day. She was flexible with our locations and helped us plan out a schedule in ways we hadn't thought of. The pictures were more than we hoped for. She got my brother to laugh and smile in the family photos--something I've never witnessed before. And she captured so many personalities perfectly with her candid shots during the ceremony and reception. We liked her as a person so much, we feel like she became a friend from the few interactions leading up to and on our wedding day. I would, and do, recommend her to everyone!

I grew up with a life saturated in creativity. To put it simply: I love my job. My style tends to be joyful, raw, romantic, & bold. I love a deep splash of color in a palette of neutrals and natural light. I love traveling, ethnic food, & ice cream! Getting married myself helped me to realize the importance of wedding photography more than I could’ve imagined. I am also all about printing photos. I’ve shot over 75 weddings, and continue to in Las Vegas, NV, MN, ND, and beyond. I would love to serve you as a part of my journey.

I've always been a creative at heart. I thrive when I am able to fulfill my passion of creating something beautiful that others will enjoy. I discovered my love for photographing portraits and couples after taking photos for friends and family, and the rest is history! My passion is to creatively capture the beauty and authentic personality of a person, couple, or family. When I'm not out photographing a couple or editing at my computer, I enjoy going out to the best new restaurant in the city, being outdoors, or planning a trip to a new destination to explore. I'm a lover of coffee, traveling, reading and anything outdoors.

Solis Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Serves Colton, SD

I grew up in Spain right by the Mediterranean Sea, but my passion for photography started in 2006 while studying in Sweden. I got my hands on a camera for the first time and since then, I haven’t been able to stop. In 2011, I invested in my first professional camera and started my business. Little did I know that would be the start of my wonderful journey through the American Dream. I photographed my first solo wedding in 2012. I loved the experience, the romance and the beauty of the moment. That year I booked three more weddings and by 2013, three weddings turned into eight; eight turned into fifteen in 2014, and so on.

Patty is a true artist in how she photographs. Her ability to see what most don’t is impeccable, leaving you in awe when she shows you the shot afterwards. The simplicity yet beauty she captures in each photograph is like I said that of a true artist. If you want the most stunningly beautiful wedding photos and most personalized service then go with Solis Photography, Patty. Your future self will thank you!

I believe in giving you photos of how your memories feel. I specialize in documentary wedding photography for all humans. I value authentic moments and connection to tell your wedding day story. We will collaborate on creating the images of your day and you can relax, knowing I have you covered.

We had a very small destination wedding on the beach in Destin, but we knew we wanted top-notch photography. Emily was great: professional, personable, and a really wonderful photographer! She sent over a bunch of previews within 24 hours. I’ve heard a fair number of horror stories from other brides when it comes to photography, and I’m so thankful Emily was exactly what we envisioned and wanted!

Dan Thorson Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,100
  • Serves Colton, SD

My approach comes as more of a laid back, effortless, but fun experience. A wedding day can be low key stressful and even hectic at times, and if we’re being honest, most people are just wanting to get it over with. So that’s where I come in, I want you to be an active part of the day, to take in every second of it, be present and enjoy yourself. There are a lot of choices out there for photographers and even some of my friends themselves are greatly talented. My approach is simple, fall in love with the work, and if you like what you see, reach out, I’d love to hear from you. Be well.

Dan Thorson Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the start, their communication was efficient yet thorough, making the planning process a breeze. On the day of the wedding, Dan expertly captured all the special moments, even getting all of our formal photos done in just an hour between the ceremony and reception. The quality of their work is truly expert level - the photos are stunning and we couldn't be happier with how they turned out. We highly recommend Dan Thorson Photography to any couple looking for a talented and professional wedding photographer.

  • Serves Colton, SD

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Isaac’s photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking.

We cannot say enough good things about Heather and her team. I discovered Heather in a bride group and knew that I just had to have her as my photographer. I expected beautiful photos, but we got so much more. Heather and her team made our wedding era so wonderful. She treats you like a best friend she’s known her whole life. Not to mention her team’s passion for travel. Heather and Andrew traveled 6 hours each way for our engagement photo shoot, then again for our wedding. Their attention to detail and passion for real-life photos really makes the perfect wedding album. They captured every important moment. We are so thankful. We could not recommend the team enough!
