We chose to have Maria shoot our wedding because I really liked the "natural light" look of her photos and because of her affordable pricing. In our pre-wedding communication, Maria was such a pleasure to work with. She was always very responsive to texts and emails and was always very polite, professional, and personable. On the day of the wedding, she wasn't feeling well, but she powered through like a champ and took amazing photos! We love looking back through the photos and are excited to get them printed and chose one to hang in our home :)

Iris Rose Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $925
  • Serves Cortaro, AZ

Hi there! I’m Sara, the creative force behind Iris Rose. As a child, I loved to create - it was my favorite thing. Through years of navigating life’s challenges, I drifted away from my creative roots. In 2020, I picked up a camera and photography brought me back to that creative space, allowing me to capture something both beautiful and meaningful and I fell in love. When I’m being creative, I feel like my best self.

Working with Sara has always been an incredible experience. As a videographer, I have found having a positive collaboration between photo and video is a very important key to a wedding day running smoothly – this is always the case when shooting with Sara. She not only has a great creative eye, but she is also a fantastic leader. Outside of shooting together, Sara and I have a continued collaboration and share our work with each other for constructive feedback and this relationship has proved to be invaluable.

As a photographer, I am constantly thinking of new ways to create art. Everywhere I go I am always studying light. It completely consumes my thinking, and I love it! I love using natural light . Every photo shoot is unique and I like to bring that uniqueness out every time. I want you to see how I see you! Moments pass by so quickly and cannot be replaced. Not only do I enjoy shooting as a photojournalist, I also love the look of a classic portrait. I feel a mix of traditional and non-traditional is the best way for me to capture a wedding. I want to work with people who hire me as an artist, who appreciate and trust my perspective.

JW Photography was so great to work with. John did our wedding photos and they came out amazing ! He is such a nice guy & is a o easy to work with. His communication throughout the whole wedding was so efficient. John is very talented at what he does. As busy and chaotic as a wedding day can be, he brought a sense of calmness to me on my wedding day. Thank you John!

Honestly, we'll feel like life-long friends by the end of your wedding day, and knowing I get to provide you with timeless memories of your wedding day is what gets me out of bed in the morning… along with my two alarm clocks that are ages 7 and 4, of course.

And when it's all said and done, I'm happiest knowing you can relive every perfect moment as you flip through the pages of your beautifully designed heirloom album.

Hi, I'm Candace and I have a thing for weddings! I didn't start as a wedding photographer, I actually started as a BIRTH photographer surprisingly! I was addicted to capturing real and raw moments for families to have and relive over and over. I actually was nervous for weddings, which is why I didn't start doing them. One thing led to another and as people started asking me if I WOULD shoot their wedding, I decided to give it a try. Fast-forward to dozens and dozens of weddings later and I am obsessed!! I am a full fledged wedding photographer and I LOVE capturing every single moment of your day. The addiction is real!!

I’m originally from New Mexico and have lived in 6 states so far, but recently my husband and I have moved to Arizona. I’m based in the greater Phoenix area but am always traveling around the state and U.S. for weddings! I’ve been married to my best friend, Cody, for 5 years now. I’ve been a professional photographer for about 4 years now. I’ve always had a passion for photography. Photography is my passion and it’s my full-time job.

Kevyn is THE BEST!! The first time we met her to do our engagement pictures, she made us feel so comfortable to be ourselves. We are both far from models and had never had professional pictures done together, but she made the process so easy and fun. During wedding planning, she felt like so much more than just a photographer, she reached out multiple times to help with timeline and check in to see how I was doing with planning everything. You can tell that she loves what she does, and it is truly a passion of hers. Our wedding day was no different than our engagement photo sessions, she was incredible. The turn around time felt so fast for all our pictures, we had over 40 sneak peak pictures back less than 24 hours after the wedding and our whole album less than a month after the wedding. We cried looking through our pictures because they took us right back to the feelings of the best day of our lives. We will cherish these pictures for the rest of our lives and are so thankful to Kevyn for capturing the joy of that day for us to look back on forever.

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 was my wedding photographer at my wedding in Flagstaff, AZ at Aldea Wedding in the Woods and she was PHENOMENAL. Her energy is out of this world & you cannot help but smile and laugh around her. She quickly feels like family. Not only does she have the most insanely wonderful personality that brightens the room but her photos she took are STUNNING! She really has such an eye for capturing the perfect moments and the quality and colors are just perfect. Myself, my now husband, and friends and family were just in awe when I showed them. I just got married two days ago and the day after my wedding she sent me sneak peek photos and there were SO many - I couldn’t believe how fast the turnaround was. And there’s more photos to come! Everything was just stunning I can’t rave about her enough. You need to hire Maya!!!! Also my friends and family couldn’t stop talking about how fun she was. We love you Maya you are amazing!!!

I cannot recommend Drzazga Photo enough! When we first met Carly we knew right away she would be so easy to work with, make us feel at ease, and take some really incredible pictures- all of which she went above and beyond to make come true during both our engagement and wedding photos. Communication was always clear and quick, offering us recommendations for other vendors or photo locations, her and Kasey even came to our rehearsal just so they were prepared for the next day. Even a year and a half later I still look through our photos and find a new “favorite one” each time, they’re just that good! We also decided to add on their Videography service closer to our wedding and I’m so so glad we did that. There’s something really special about being able to really hear and see to remember the day. Kasey’s editing was fantastic, he created one of my favorite things to come out of our wedding. Drzazga is definitely the best and will only make your wedding better, easier, and less stressful!

From the very beginning of planning my surprise proposal to my girlfriend, working with Grace was an absolute pleasure. She was not only receptive to my ideas but also shared her own equally creative suggestions. Grace's professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding. What truly made the experience special was how she made the entire photoshoot feel like a fun activity for us as a couple. Her creativity shone through as she guided us through various poses that felt incredibly natural. Grace's ability to put us at ease made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. One more remarkable detail was her dedication to research, ensuring we had perfect sunrise photos. It was evident that she went the extra mile to time everything perfectly. What stood out the most, though, was her unique talent for capturing the emotion and joy of the moment. I can't thank her enough for creating such a magical and unforgettable memory for us!

We hired Ricky - Goodeye Photography - for both our engagement and wedding photos, and holy cow did he blow us away. Hiring him was easily the best decision we made. From start to finish, Ricky was an absolute joy to work with. His professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail made every minute of planning and shooting a wonderful experience. I originally found Ricky on Instagram (@goodeye.photography) and after a quick scroll through his page, I instantly knew he was who we needed. Every photo in his portfolio had emotion and love in them. After finding his Instagram page, I reached out and he very quickly responded with all necessary information. He communicated clearly and quickly throughout this entire process which was very appreciated! I plan events professionally and half the time it’s like pulling teeth to even get a response from someone. Never once did Ricky have a delayed response or leave us with more questions than answers. My husband is what we’d call “camera shy” and was pretty anxious leading up to our engagement shoot as this was his first time getting professional photos done. And while Ricky always behaves in a very professional manner, he also is extremely personable, friendly, and frankly just straight up funny. We instantly connected with him and he made my husband feel so much more relaxed - heck, my husband even had FUN during the shoot which I didn’t think possible haha. It goes without saying that the engagement photos were absolutely stunning… each one better than the last. As the big day drew nearer, Ricky met with us regularly and assisted us in our agenda, timeline, and all these other small details you don’t even think about. On the day of our wedding, Ricky and his team went above and beyond to capture every moment. He has an incredible eye for detail and was able to capture the essence of our day beautifully. (Petition for him to change his name from Good Eye Photography to Incredible Eye Photography ;) After the ceremony was over and it was time for my new husband and I to sneak off during cocktail hour to take our photos, a lovely wedding guest managed to spill red wine all down my white dress. Before I could even flinch, Ricky immediately jumped in and said “Don’t worry, I can edit out these red stains in all the pictures.” One of the BEST parts of working with Ricky is also his quick turnaround time. I wanna say it was like 5 days after the wedding and Ricky had already turned around a handful of “sneak peak” photos - which is quite impressive considering how many other weddings he had booked after ours. And to no ones surprise - there wasn’t a hint of red wine stains in any of the pictures ) Our wedding photos are more than what we could have ever hoped for. I may be biased, but truly some of these pictures deserve to be hung in the Louvre. I cannot recommend Good Eye Photography enough (and on that note it’s worth mentioning that since our engagement photoshoot with Ricky, two of my other friends that were engaged have also hired him and his team for their weddings)! If you are looking for a talented and passionate photographer who will go the extra mile to make your special moments unforgettable and your planning process a breeze, then Ricky is the guy for you.

I am a firm believer that friendship comes from learning the weird and quirky about a person, and still wanting to hang out with them after. And, since you will literally spend more time with your photographer than most anyone else on your wedding day, I want to be friends. We NEED to be friends. Like, I’ll-probably-end-up-holding-your-dress-up-while-you-pee type friends. That’s practically BFF status. I’m not only in the business of capturing your epically rad and emotional moments, I am also in the business of making lasting friendships, both of which I’m really awesome at.

Dionne was amazing! Our photos turned out beautiful! I have no idea how we will choose which photos to frame!

My name is Laura and I am bilingual (English/Spanish). I moved to Arizona in the beginning of 2022 from New Jersey. It has been bittersweet to redefine myself in a new state. One thing I absolutely refused to leave behind is my love for photography. I moved here with my husband for a change of speed. It has been such a beautiful change! Just like you, I too am in love with the views Arizona has to offer. I am a nontraditional wedding photographer, I am there for all the feels that come with your big day. The tears, the smiles, the laughs, the dancing... Moody, warm and candid photography. Photos to make you relive the moments later

Laura was amazing! From our first meeting we clicked really well. She was super easy to work with and handled the chaos throughout our wedding very well. We are absolutely obsessed with our photos and will be using her again for any of our future photography needs. She is extremely personable, well spoken, and understanding. Couldn't be more satisfied with our investment in her services.

Hi! I'm Karla - a wedding photographer for joyful, heart-centered, fun-seeking couples. A little bit about me, I'm a mama & wife & I'm a lover of all things spontaneous & adventurous. Photography is my passion, more specifically, wedding photography. I love creating moments that will last a lifetime, photos that you will share with your future children & grandchildren. It brings me so much joy giving you photos that bring you back to your wedding day every time you look at them! I cannot wait to tell YOUR story.

If you’re on the fence about who to book because let’s be honest, there’s a lot of vendors on Zola, choose Karla! Her photos turned out amazing for both our save the dates and our wedding. She has a quick turn around time (24 hours) for sneak peeks. She’s sweet, kind, communicative, easy going, and just fun to work with. She was more of my wedding coordinator on my wedding day than my actual coordinator lol. Book her! You won’t be disappointed.

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.

We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His 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. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.
