She fit right in with the crowd so she got some amazing pictures. We love all of our photos but especially the ceremony shots and the candids from the reception. The planning process was amazing- no notes. We wouldn’t change anything!I’m

Since 2013, I’ve been capturing love stories in a way that’s timeless, authentic, and uniquely yours. Whether it’s a quiet elopement or a big celebration, my approach blends classic elegance with photojournalistic storytelling. More than photography, it's about building trust and celebrating love in all its beautiful forms—honoring every culture, story, and connection.

On the day of the wedding and through the prep leading up to the big day, her fun and friendly personality shone through. She was organized, calm, and seamlessly blended into the background while still guiding us through various moments. The quality of her work is truly outstanding; every photo is beautifully composed and tells a story. She has an incredible eye for detail, capturing not just the big moments but also the little, candid interactions that made our day unique. We are absolutely thrilled with the final images and grateful for the memories she helped preserve. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only skilled but genuinely cares about her clients, Sam at Golden Hour Images is the perfect choice.

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.

Hi there! I’m Emma CotéEwers, your East Coast & Destination Wedding and Lifestyle Photographer! My work is a seamless blend of traditional heirloom portraiture, lively artistic shots, and a little ​photojournalism if the day calls for it. With a true-to-color, film-inspired approach, I strive to craft visuals that capture love, ​laughter, and those beautifully authentic moments that weave together the story of your ​wedding! I feel like these should include fun ​facts? Patsy Cline’s Walkin’ After Midnight is my favorite song and I am currently on my 8th ​nostalgic binge of Gilmore Girls (which might just be fueling my banter lately).

I cannot say enough good things about Emma - she is always flexible, knowledgeable, and shows up with the best energy to every event! When I wasn’t sure where I wanted to take bridals, she was happy to make suggestions based on the vibe I was going for - and I very much appreciated one less thing on my plate! She delivers high quality, beautiful photos every single time and is the artist behind so many of my most cherished memories! I would absolutely recommend Coté and Camera - you won’t regret it!

Hey there! My name is Angelina and I started practicing photography in August 2020, but I've had an interest in it since I was 13 years old (I really wanted to shoot for National Geographic). Now I've expanded into portraits, engagement sessions, and I've done small weddings. I'm a Chicago native but I've also lived in Iowa, Arizona, Nebraska, Texas, & now Mississippi!! What can I say, I enjoyed a somewhat nomadic lifestyle. I also just got married on August 31st, so I know how it feels to be both a service provider and a customer! My style of photography is more candid with a documentary style approach, but I do love a good editorial moment!

We couldn't be happier with our experience with Angie! She captured our wedding day beautifully, blending professionalism with a warm, friendly presence. The candid shots were especially stunning, showcasing the genuine emotions of the day. Communication was easy, and we received our photos promptly.

Autumn's Weddings

I'm Autumn. Baker, reader, musical-lover, photographer. I love experiencing art in every form, and I'm discovering I love creating it too. For so long there has been a bubble around art, and a body guard dictating who can or can't enjoy or create it. I'm all about bending, breaking, and recreating ancient and archaic rules. There is no one saying what you can or can't create. And if there is, I'm right there with you to block out the noise. With me, you can recreate the stuff of dreams. Absolute magic.

Autumn did a wonderful job photographing our wedding. She also did our engagement photos. She is very professional but also knows how to have a good time. She is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. She was always on time and always kept in touch with any updates and what we had scheduled with her. I would recommend her if anyone is looking for a photographer. The photos came out lovely. Thank you for being apart of our special day.

I am a U.S. Army Veteran, as is my husband. Jacob and I actually met while serving in the Army! We have shared an amazing marriage and enjoy being parents to our two children, and our fur-child, Yoshi. As a photographer, a wife, a mom, and a travel addict, I’ve experienced countless times how our favorite moments can happen in an instant. As your photographer, I want to be there to help preserve those memories.

OMG!! I can’t say enough about how amazing Lesleann was. I reached out to Lesleann during the Pandemic and right before she delivered her baby girl. I must admit, I was nervous to book her but she reassured me she would be back in time for my engagement photos. She wasn’t lying. I think she had more energy than me. She walked up and down, crawled and even got on the ground for our stunning photos. She instantly became one of the bridesmaids. She was a true joy and pleasure to work with.

What will you have after the wedding is over? Your love for each other and your photos! Your wedding day is a big deal. Huge, ginormous, massive! We know you spend lots of money and lots of time to ensure that every single detail -- all the way down to the napkins on your reception tables -- is perfect.

Angela was such a delight to work with! From the very moment I initially met with her, she put me at ease and made sure to share how my wedding day would look. My one requirement when I was planning my wedding was to have quality photos to look back on in 50-60 years, and Angela rocked it! I am so glad I chose her to take my once in a lifetime photos for my wedding, as well as my bridal photos!

Hi! My name is Abby Law, owner of Abby Law Photography! I was born & raised in Grand Rapids MI, but for the the last five years, I have been living in Tennessee. I am based out of the Nashville area! I have been working in the wedding industry since Oct 2022, and I have loved every second of it! I married the love of my life in Dec 2023 which only made my heart swell more & more for not only photography and this business of mine, but for the deeper meaning of marriage itself, and what it truly means to marry your Beloved! Although I am primarily based in Nashville, I LOVE to travel, and will travel to wherever you are!

My boyfriend and I had couple pictures done with Abby. She saw the vision and made it everything we could’ve ever imagined! We had so much fun and it was easy! I would definitely recommend Abby to anyone! She has such a sweet spirit and is so kind!
