Awarded Best of Zola
2020 was a difficult year for many reasons, but weddings were especially tough to make happen in this calendar year. But what made it even more difficult was having to plan 2 different weddings. The first being a 10 month planned wedding in Joshua Tree, California, until we had to cancel it due to COVID in November a month before it was supposed to happen. My now husband and I scrambled to reset for a smaller ceremony in Illinois instead to allow at least his family to attend and have it at his sister's home in Huntley, IL. We only had one month to reset. One of the most important things for us was photography, and although we had spent most of our savings on the cancelled wedding and we had no hope in recovering most of that back or even soon enough to help with the 2nd wedding, we knew we had to put forth the money and make the right choice for a photographer to document our day as best as possible so that our love ones who couldn't make it could experience that day through the right lens. Justin Vaughn of JVaughn Photography LLC was the right lens and so much more! He worked very closely with us via online google meetings, with a minor setback, which was we couldn't have an in person engagement photo session with him (since we were based in Wyoming and wouldn't arrive in Illinois until closer to the ceremony). Justin prefers to complete an engagement photo session, which comes already included in a lot of his packages, before the wedding to get to know us as a couple and make sure we get the shots we prefer. However even without the engagement session, through our online meetings, we were able to discuss who we are and Justin had that personal touch as though we were talking to an old friend. We established the narrative and story telling that we hoped to have for the day. Justin took detailed notes and had a list of shots to take for the day. But his improvisation and artistic eye was also excellent and he captured moments that we had never thought of that were so beautiful and amazing. In addition to the photography he also did minor videography to provide us a highlight reel, which was beyond what we expected! Throughout the day he was also very much a ninja in capturing the right moments beautifully without obstructing the views of guests present. I would recommend him for any photography need, he truly is an artist that captures the moments you wanted and so much more!

I love a good love story. There’s nothing I enjoy more than photographing the kind of love that sets the soul on fire. Or capturing the excitement that comes from saying ‘yes’ to forever with your best friend. I’m empowered by the couples who are passionate about life but don’t take it too seriously. The ones who crave adventure and aren’t afraid to blaze their own trail. Who value connection and intentional conversation while making the time and space in their relationship to grow in love and as individuals.

Emily - and her husband, Dan - are an absolute joy to work! They put as much effort into trying to be helpful, and to be a friend to you, as they do into getting incredible photos. They’re easy to communicate with, fun to be around, as professional as they come, more creative than you can imagine, and the end product will leave you breathless! Absolutely cannot recommend them enough!

Hey! I'm Katrice. Photography has been my 'thing' for as long as I can remember. My father was a photographer. One of my earliest memories is a point and click film camera being placed in my hand. As I grew up photography began to mean so much more to me. It helps us remember. these little bits of time are captured forever. Seeing the joy on my friend's faces when I'd hand them prints after recent adventures was so meaningful to me. After college and the birth of my daughter I decided to dive in full time, and here we are. 7 years later & still learning and growing. I love it all.

Katrice was simply amazing. She was flexible and communicative. Her online portal is super easy to use. But most importantly, she captured the most incredible pictures of our wedding. She commanded the attention needed to wrangle a variety of people for formal photos, including an entire group shot, and got truly excellent candid photos. We could not be happier!

Sarah was also kind enough to include a personal memorial charm that was very important to me to my bouquet. -Our boutonnieres were perfect for the groomsmen family. The pops of color tied together different ensembles and personalities. -Sarah also did florals on our vegan cakes and several statement arrangements and they were BEYOND GORGEOUS! -The freshest, most beautiful flowers.

It's a way to freeze time, emotions, and memories. I started my business at a young age, and have loved every second of it! Through ups and downs, photography has always been my passion, and I truly believe I have the best job in the world. When I'm not taking photos or editing at my computer, you will find me hanging with my husband, binging a 90's sitcom, reading Harry Potter for the 100th time, playing with my two cats, or caring for my very many plants!

My approach to photography is rooted in a desire to illustrate the emotions and stories of my clients in a way that reflects the honesty of their experiences. I adore capturing the uniqueness of each person I work with. It is by encouraging my clients to honor their story, their truest selves are reflected in these photographs.

Coming from 10+ years in venue management & wedding planning I've seen my share of photographers weekend after weekend. Let me tell you - it takes a special kind of photographer to have all the right skill set to be a good wedding photographer. Lauren is beyond that, she's great. She's personable, caring, professional, artistic, and can give you direction (this is huge) while capturing you, your mate, and your family.

Hey friend! I'm Mariah! I am a wedding photographer based in Madison, WI serving worldwide for the nostalgic lovers and those who value presence over perfection. I specialize in modern, documentary wedding photography captured on both digital and film mediums. I love to travel and am more than willing to go anywhere and everywhere to capture the special seasons in your life!

There are not enough words to recommend Mariah as highly as she deserves. She hit the perfect mix of direction and fly-on-the-wall. She immediately felt like an old friend and fit in just perfectly. She is laid back but extremely present, not afraid to make posing tweaks when needed while also incredible at capturing those raw emotion moments. Mariah also hits that perfect balance between true color and dreamy in her photos, and if you get married somewhere with a gorgeous landscape, she makes sure both you and your background look perfect. I love her. She's the best. Would hire her 20x over.

Chelsea Ann Bell Photography was established in 2016 with the passion to capture the essence of the most special moments that life can bring.

I honestly cannot recommend Chelsea highly enough!! She is such an amazing hype girl and will make you and your friends/family SO comfortable!

Homeschoolin, Home birthin, and Holistic mama that loves to capture Life and Love in it's truest moments and forms. My business has been a decade in the making from falling in love with photography in high school, to now... My love for Milkweed and my time spent living in Iowa has inspired my business name. I used to live near a conservation center with fields of milkweed. My children and I spent many days enjoying this haven of beauty and were blessed to see thousands of Monarch butterflies migrate to the Milkweed. I realize how fleeting these moments are and would love to capture your story!

So easy to work with and professional! My labor went very quickly so photos were in the immediate postpartum. I love how each detail was captured so intimately to tell the story, so I can look back on those moments. She respected the environment and helped in any way to make sure I felt cared for-above and beyond being a photographer. We also did some newborn/family photos a few days later and she was very patient with my full of energy toddler, all while capturing the sweet details of our newborn. All of the photos are beautiful!! When I asked for a few edits to the gallery it was done and updated for me quickly.

Complete peace of mind We have 25 years of giving couples like you unforgettable weddings. We celebrate YOU!

We always ranked the music as the number one priority for our wedding, and we’re so glad we entrusted David Rothstein Band to bring our party to life. Planning a wedding during Covid had many challenges, including not being able to see the band live, but thankfully, David has so many live videos available where we can see the entertainment his band delivers day in and day out. Those videos, along with David’s passion for his work, made us confident to chose his team to make our day special. For our wedding, we had a classical duo during the ceremony, a pianist during cocktail hour, a jazz trio during dinner, and an incomparable 10 piece orchestra to dance the night away. From the first note to the final encore, we were BLOWN AWAY with the talent and energy that the band brought. We had a few special requests for the night - from a unique arrangement for our ceremony processional to a mashup of New York songs during the reception - and David’s team was beyond accommodating. We had dancing for 3 hours straight and not once did anyone leave the floor - the band was able to feel the energy in the room and chose the right song for the moment. I stumbled across the ingoing setlist after the party and was actually surprised to see that the band didn’t even stick to the songs they had picked - a sign that they adjusted based on what the crowd was loving. It’s been nearly a month since the big day and people keep telling us how amazing the music was, and we can’t stop watching the many videos David took from the night, reliving the magic that his band created. If you’re thinking about which band to have for your wedding, look no further than the David Rothstein Band - you won’t be disappointed!!

I've worked as an editor and videographer for the last 6 years of my life and filming weddings has allowed me to connect storytelling to a lifelong hobby and passion of mine; videography. In the off-season, I work for creative agencies, production houses, and all kinds of others as a videographer and editor. Follow me on Instagram to see some of my other commercial and creative work that I've had the pleasure of working on.

Brad was an absolute breeze to work with. Planning a wedding in 2020 was not easy, but you wouldn't have known that working with Brad. His communication was always on point and was there to answer every question. Not everyone decides to hire a videographer, but I would 100% recommend it. The outcome of his product left my husband and I speechless, not to mention brought tears to our eyes. Everyone always says the actually wedding day flies by, and truly it does. But having all of the video footage to go back and watch is something I can't put into words. Brad and team, I can't thank you enough!! So if you are on the fence of whether to hire a videographer or not, do it. I promise you won't regret it!

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

First of all, congratulations! Nothing gets me more excited than the opportunity to be your wedding photographer. I’ve been in business for 12 years already and am based out of Poynette, Wisconsin, generally having weddings in Central Wisconsin but I absolutely love to travel anywhere. Often I hear my couples comment on how easy I help make their wedding day run on top of them absolutely loving their timeless, true to life photos from their big day. There is no higher honor to me than being selected to capture your wedding through photographs for you and your loved ones to cherish for generations to come.

I'm a midwest wedding photographer specializing in wedding photojournalism. I believe a wedding day is a celebration, not a photoshoot. Come as you are and know you don't need to pose and perform for the camera. The real stuff is the good stuff.

Awarded Best of Zola
The photography for our wedding day was one of the most important parts of our wedding day and we are so happy Caitlin was our photographer! We had to cancel our original wedding due to covid, and since our families live far away, we ended up having a ceremony with just me and my husband, and our two witnesses (a friend and my mother in law). It was so important to us to have photos to capture the day so we could share with our families and friends who could not be there. They all absolutely loved them- she captured the beauty and detail of even our small simple ceremony. Leading up to the day, Caitlin was responsive, kind, and professional. She made sure to check in and ask us what was important for her to capture on the day of and double checked logistics for the day. On our wedding day she did such a good job! She is down to earth and comfortable- it makes a difference when you feel at ease! She helped us figure out how to pose and got some really nice photos, and she also took some candid shots which are some of our favorites! the photos came our beautiful. When we were looking for photographers, I was drawn to Caitlin's work- she uses light in such a beautiful way. We were not disappointed with our photos! We highly recommend cjefko photography!!
