Nice to meet you, I’m Alena or lena, whatever you want to call me. My simple pleasures in life are rare plants, good coffee, and soft music (aka, lots of Bon Iver & Gregory Alan Isakov) More importantly, you guys, my clients. With photography being my full time job, I get to put every single ounce of my being into creating magical images for you to look back on for years to come. That’s really what I’m here for. So, let’s get coffee or a drink so I can get to know you and your partner, and create magic with you both.

I have had Alena as our photographer since 2018! I had been recommended by a friend and had her for our engagement photos, wedding, the birth of our first born, his first birthday, and our second born! If that doesn’t speak for itself. Alena is incredibly talented, knowledgeable, and overall a great person, and friend. Her photos aren’t just any photos that you see. She puts time, and hardwork into her editing and it pays off. They’re moody, flirty, fun, intimate. She can do quite literally anything you ask for. No need to worry about being nervous about being in front of her camera, she knows how to pose you and talks to you the entire time. It feels like you’re hanging out with friends and it’s so so enjoyable!

Meganography

  • Serves Dexter, IA

I’m Megan Thompson, and I am the gal behind the camera at Meganography! I’ve always had a passion for photography, ever since I was a wee little one! When I was approx. 4 years old, my Grandma would let me use her camera to take pictures of my dolls (lol)! I've owned Meganography since 2016, and I've been photographing love since 2017. As you can tell, I LOVE to travel! Please ask about my "wedding bucket list location" list, occasionally I offer discounts in those locations. I also am in love with any and all cats of the world, sunshine, wearing sweatpants/leggings, and Starbucks pink drinks! My goal is to capture your love in every image.

Megan and Dom were so excellent. They arrived and got to work! They went above and beyond to make sure our day went smoothly. I am in love with all the candid shots that were captured. I am so happy I found Megan on Facebook earlier this year. The communication was great; I knew exactly what to expect before, the day of, and after when waiting for the photos and video. I highly recommend Meganography to capture your special day.

Jack Wylde (they/them) (name in progress) I am an Inclusive Wedding Photographer blends fine art with authentic storytelling, creating images that feel timeless and deeply personal. Inspired by the richness of romantic paintings, I capture love with moody tones, candid moments, and creative angles. From elopements at sunrise to backyard celebrations under the stars, I celebrate all types of unions—LGBTQIA+, non-traditional, eco-friendly, and more. Whether it’s a courthouse ceremony or a handfasting in the woods, I focus on the details and emotions that make your day truly yours. Let’s turn your love story into art.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our elopement photos by From GA with Love are absolutely magical. They didn’t just capture the obvious moments but found the heart in every little detail of our day. One of our favorite shots is of the winding dirt road we drove down at sunrise, with the mist clinging to the trees—it feels like the start of our own fairy tale. Another incredible image is of us exchanging our vows on a quiet riverbank, with a heron landing in the background as if nature itself was blessing our ceremony. Even the candid photo of us laughing together while struggling to light our unity candle in the breeze is now one of our most cherished memories. Their ability to honor the intimacy and uniqueness of our day made our gallery feel deeply personal and full of love. The best part was the inclusion of our kid, who got to feel like a part of the day. If you want a photographer who can make your story feel as epic and authentic as it deserves, they are the one.

Reflect Studios

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Dexter, IA for additional fees

We are a collaboration of photographers and editors bringing together unique ideas and electrifying energy. We are eager and excited to work with couples on one of the most exciting days of their lives!

My husband, Michael and I live in the Minneapolis area but we had our wedding in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, where our friends and family are from. We started by looking for photographers in Michigan before coming across Reflect Studios, right here in Minneapolis. I fell in love with their photography style immediately so I reached out. We ended up stretching our budget a little and booked a destination wedding package with them right away. We felt that Reflect was the absolute best bang for our buck. We met and maintained contact with our photographer, Sian, months prior to the wedding day so we felt really comfortable everything would go as planned. The wedding day was nothing short of perfect. I married my best friend in front of the people that mean the most to us in one of the most beautiful venues I could have ever imagined. A week later, Sian sent us a Sneak Peek album of our wedding and about a month later, we got all of our photos. Every time we see the photos Sian captured for us, Michael and I relive that day over and over again. Sian did an incredible job in capturing the emotion that everyone was feeling. To this day, Sian and I remain close friends. We would hire Reflect Studios 100 out of 100 times.

The rawness of emotion & human connection is what drew me into wedding and portrait photography. I am a storyteller and celebrater for the lighthearted and crazy in love. I focus on capturing authentic photographs that stand the test of time. My goal is to provide couples with one heck of an experience and images that can be cherished for a generations. One of my favorite facts about my style is that I created my own preset from scratch, and that each photo receives the dedicated time it takes to ensure that its final version is its best. The result is beautiful, sentimental photos that preserve meaningful and true-to-life moments.

I will AWAYS recommend Annie Lui Photography. I’ve worked with her four times over the past five years and she’s the best! First she took my A&M Ring Day pictures. Annie captures sweet moments with my family, and even though the lighting was tricky indoors, and the outside was grey and gloomy (rainy weather), she worked her magic with edits. For Graduation, Annie was the best and super patient; she recommended where we could go around main campus to get the best shots, and ideal poses! I also worked with her for a couples shoot, which had to be my favorite session. She was extremely kind and patient with me and my boyfriend, hyping us up as we were taking photos. She worked through the Texas humidity and worked her best to get all the angles possible in Tomball. I knew Immediately we had to book her when I got Married in July of 2022. She was so professional coming down for my wedding in Rio Grande City, and handled all the ceremony pictures, family portraits and couple portraits with ease. I love that she is able to put her magic touch when it comes to editing. Her style is very soft, bright and romantic. What I appreciate the most is that she puts so much time and dedication in her editing process to make every shot perfect especially for my wedding, my family and I absolutely love looking back at the pictures Annie took on my big day. Definitely worth your time and money. I can’t wait to book her for my next occasion!
