Hi! It's so nice to meet you! I live in Oregon with my two cats Clara & Leonardo and about a hundred tropical plants 😆🪴 I love exploring the Pacific Northwest, but I’ve also been able to travel throughout the states and overseas. I’m a huge national parks nerd, a sci-fi enthusiast, and a vintage collector with a serious thrifting addiction.

Working with Naomi from Northwest Hearts Photography was a pleasure. She has a creative eye and took the time to get to know us as a couple. She was able to beautifully captured the emotion in our engagement photos and was willing to travel to our favorite spot on the coast. Unfortunately a last minute family emergency prevented her from shooting our wedding day. However, Naomi communicated with us promptly and had arranged for a capable backup photographer to step in, which helped ensure our special day went smoothly. While we were disappointed not to have Naomi herself there, we appreciated her professionalism and care in making sure we were taken care of. We'd recommend Naomi for her creativity, flexibility and dedication to her clients.

Brayley was hands down the easiest and one of the best hires for our wedding. I found her through the Zola website as a photographer with five stars. I reached out, and she got back to me immediately. Her communication skills were top-notch, and I hired her that same day. My fiancé and I live in the Carolinas, and despite the three-hour time difference, we always felt in the loop, heard, and understood. From the first email to the wedding day, she was amazing. Now let's get to the important stuff... the wedding day. She was incredible. She got all the shots I wanted and then some. We were able to get all the photos done in a timely manner so that we could get back to the party and enjoy ourselves. Brayley captured both staged photos and the best candids. We cannot wait to get the rest of our album back. If you're thinking about hiring Brayley... DO IT!

I am a wedding and elopement photographer based in Seattle, Washington. With over 5 years of shooting weddings in Southern California, I bring a creative, professional and relaxed approach to help treasure each moment on your special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Douglas was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding on 08/17/24. Our original wedding photographer cancelled two weeks before our wedding, and a friend recommended we reach out to Doug. He was thankfully available and from the moment we reached out, he was so easy to communicate with - always quick to respond, extremely accommodating, and so easy-going. His work has been absolutely beautiful, he has an amazing understanding of light, composition, and framing with a lot of experience working with outdoor conditions that truly captured the essence of our special day. Doug fit right in with our wedding - he showed up early, stayed late, and somehow (while just following the standard schedule of the day) managed to get the most incredible true lighting and color in *all* of our photos - everything feels exactly like the day itself felt. We couldn't be happier with the results and would without a doubt recommend Douglas R Hall Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

My now husband and I originally booked Amandha for our engagement photo shoot! The whole process of booking, communicating, planning and executing the engagement shoot was flawless and exceeded our expectations! At the end of our engagement session, we knew we wanted her for our wedding. Bride's, if you don't know now you know that when you find a gem of a vendor, hold onto them!!!! Amandha is genuine, down to earth, laid back, sweet and considerate. She was great on our wedding day! We booked her well over a year before our wedding day, and she stayed in contact over that time touching base to prepare for the big day! Our wedding photos are now in, and we are just in love. She was also extremely communicative to all the wedding vendors on the big day to make sure the timeline stayed on track. If you're debating on who to hire, this is your girl.

CONGRATULATIONS! You just got engaged! :o I'm a firm believer in weddings being a blast, so I do what I can to make sure that your time spent with me is fun, active, natural, and feels like YOU! I'm also a firm believer in doing my part in making your wedding planning simpler for you, because let's face it wedding planning can be a bit overwhelming especially in the beginning. Also, weddings are stupid expensive and the moment you add the word "wedding" to anything the price jumps like 5x which is NOT COOL, and doesn't set couples up for success. So I try to keep my prices low. If you need help paying let me know!

Nick was so much fun to work with and was great at breaking the ice and making it more comfortable. During the shoot, he was very helpful with giving different directions and poses to try to look more natural. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful and I would highly recommend him!

Hey there! I’m Chris, and I’m stoked to be part of your wedding journey. My goal is to help make your day everything you’ve dreamed of. I'll even bring some dog treats. You can count on me to keep things stress-free—no “photographer attitude” here. If the timeline gets off track, I’ll help get it back on schedule so you can enjoy your meal. Based in Boston, I love traveling for weddings, especially intimate gatherings of 100-150 guests. I’m a huge fan of venues like barns, ski resorts, and castles. Capturing vibrant, cinematic images is my passion, and I focus on true-to-life editing—no overexposed skies or unnatural skin tones!

Awarded Best of Zola
I am beyond grateful we hired Chris as our wedding photographer. From our first time talking I knew he was the right fit. He went above and beyond to make this the best experience. From meeting us in advance and even scouting photo spots at the venue when we visited, to preparing an iron clad schedule with room for flexibility, to making me an electrolyte drink so I'd stay hydrated during the morning prep, and making us laugh and stay present throughout the day, we couldn't have been happier with our experience. Chris has an innate ability to connect with anyone and he made all of us feel at ease, which helped our authentic emotions shine through in the photos. We knew we wanted a photographer that could capture all the feelings in a unique, artistic and fun way, and Chris did all that and more. Our wedding photos are beautiful, precious memories that truly allow us to relive each moment, and I am so grateful for that gift. Chris was one of the best investments we made for our wedding, and he truly made the day even more special for us and our families. 1,000 out of 10 recommend!

For as long as I can remember I have always loved to create. My passion for photography started when I was a teen. As I honed in on my craft I began to photograph on a more professional level right out of high school, but stepped away for academic pursuits. After completing both a bachelors and master's degree in Anthropology, I came full circle, determining that a career in doing something creative was where my heart lies. Whether it is your wedding, or any other special moment in your life, I cherish the opportunity to document it in a way that highlights the artistic elements, while still capturing an authenticness that is uniquely you.

Shooting with them literally feels like hanging with your best friends. They were an absolute joy from start to finish, but it was Sharayah’s attention to detail and artistic eye that impressed me above all else. It was inspiring to feel like we were all creating art together, and the photos don’t lie! Our engagement shoot went viral on Instagram, and we got hundreds of comments saying, “these are literally the best engagement photos I’ve ever seen.” I too, agree with that sentiment, but I have to give credit to Hereafter’s vision and execution because they NAILED it. As a team, they’re both extremely communicative and organized, professional yet relaxed in the way they interacted with us and our guests. No one has ever made me feel so comfortable in front of a camera. Additionally, their digital color grading is meticulously adjusted to match 35mm film with incredibly accuracy. They perfectly captured the magic of our special day. We booked them for the whole package - engagement shoot, wedding photos, and wedding video with super 8 film. Their understanding of my vision was remarkable…Hereafter managed to romanticize every single detail in a profound way. The photos are so special to us because each one feels like a standalone piece of art. They went above and beyond for us in every capacity, even going so far as to drive me to the venue on my wedding day when things ran late! We cannot recommend Hereafter Films highly enough. Book them immediately! I promise you, they are worth every single penny and more.

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Tara Beth for our wedding in December 2022. We started following her instagram years prior and fell in love with how she captured every moment, from the guests to the couple. Not only were her photos amazing, but being a part of the LGBTQ community can feel daunting at times when reaching out to vendors, specifically for same-sex weddings. We had a few tough experiences with other vendors in regards to being a same-sex couple, but Tara Beth, as she is a part of the community, made it easy to feel comfortable and accepting. We contacted her and were met with a quick response. From the start, we knew she was the one. Her vibe and passion for love sold us! My wife and I were very nervous to take photos, but Tara Beth reassured us that she would walk us through everything - and she did just that. She talked us through our first look and it was an amazing experience. She also guided our party and family photos, which was super helpful as we were able to get our photos done ahead of schedule! We appreciate everything Tara Beth did for our special day and would recommend her 100 times over!

She spent time getting to know us and made sure we were able to capture amazing, memorable photos, without losing sight of the actual point of the day and party we were there to enjoy. Multiple times she seamlessly adapted our shot plan on-the-fly to let us have more time to be with guests or have a moment to ourselves when she sensed we needed it. ALSO she was a baby whisperer with our flower girl and turned frowns into smiles and I'm still not sure how she did that. Highly recommend Hiba!

My name is Branson and I am the Best Of State Winner in Utah. I have traveled to over 80 countries photographing and filming weddings in all corners of the globe. I also teach photography and videography to other creatives and am known for my timeless, romantic, and candid style.

We had an AMAZING experience working with Branson’s team for our family photos. His team were very professional and put everyone at ease, making the process enjoyable for the whole family. They took the time to understand what we were looking for and made thoughtful suggestions to ensure every detail was perfect. During the shoot, their creativity and attention to detail stood out. They effortlessly captured both candid moments and posed portraits, making sure everyone looked their best. Even the kids, who are usually camera-shy, felt comfortable and relaxed. The final photos were absolutely stunning and we printed them everywhere through out our house. If you’re looking for a talented, patient, and professional photographer who delivers exceptional results, I highly recommend Branson’s team!

I am a travel enthusiast and I will always be down to hike up a mountain or explore a new city.

My husband and I decided to elope to NYC from Scotland in 2022. Jo linked us to her Instagram profile following a post on a Facebook group and we instantly fell in love with her whole vibe. Her work stunning. We set up a video call to discuss what we wanted from the photos from our special day - Jo just got it and got us almost instantly. She knew NYC and where to get our pictures done but also allowed us to collaborate and explore on the day. Jo is passionate about her profession and passionate about giving you the best possible experience, flowing with love and positivity throughout. It’s super relaxed and fun. I wish she lived closer - she would absolutely be our go to for all our big life events! We wish we had been able to get Jo to do some of her film shots as well as they are absolutely STUNNING! She was able to get our sneak peak pictures to us quickly and wanted to absolutely nail it for the rest of the gallery and boy did she nail it.

We are SO thankful for Serenity Love Photography. Sarina is such a sweet person and a very talented photographer. Our photos are absolutely beautiful, and her prices can't be beat. Her editing style is so different than what's trendy right now — dark and moody but still true to color. Her presence was also just amazing. She was friendly, down-to-earth, helpful, and flexible. We also had some major family drama, and not only did we not feel judged by her in the slightest, she even offered sincere emotional support and commiseration. Sarina, you're seriously the best!

I'm a Las Vegas based professional wedding photographer, working with couples from all over the world, as well as a travelling wedding photographer. Along with adoring weddings, I'm a serious hockey fan, with silver hair, and a terribly awkward smile. When I’m not photographing people, I love photographing Lego Minifigs on location, Darth Vader being a favorite (and personal hero) but I like expanding my collection of character portraits. I have a wicked sense of humor, a weakness for Rom Com’s & Spanish red wine. In my personal time I work closely with a local dog rescue, as a foster home and photographer, helping find their furever homes.

Brittney was absolutely AMAZING! From our engagement session, to my boudoir session, to our wedding day - everything was perfect. My boudoir session with Brittney was so much fun! she made me feel so comfortable and not awkward at all. It was such a fun/exciting gift to give my husband before we got married. From the engagement photoshoot we knew right away we absolutely loved Brittney’s energy! She started this session off with giving us some beers! She listened to the vibe we wanted out of our photos and we got just that. She’s super friendly, easy going and delivered us our photos back in a timely manner!!! She even a sent us sneak peek photos the day after our wedding. Every time I look back at our wedding photos now it makes me want to go back and relive that day and that’s exactly what I wanted! She captured the day perfectly, but she even went above and beyond and got so many photos from the reception. The photos show all our loved ones having a blast and that just makes my heart so happy. Overall, we feel very blessed that we found Brittney. She’s now a close friend and we have these special photos and moments to remember forever. If you need a wedding photographer book with Brittney; you will not be disappointed! She does beautiful work and you can tell she loves what she does!

TLDR: she is talented, professional & kind very helpful as someone with limited mobility. Tessa & her team photographed & recorded my wedding last weekend, and they were a dream to work with. I am chronically ill & so I knew on my wedding day I could not be running around to different locations for photos, and Tessa was extremely mindful of that fact & made sure to work within the parameters of what was doable for me. I was worried my limited mobility would mean my photos would be a little boring, but she's already sent a handful of pictures over for a sneak peek & they are GORGEOUS. Tessa is a true professional but also someone who clearly loves what she does, which I think really shows in the quality of her work. Could not be more glad to have had her & her team document my special day! :)
