We’ve been using Dotti for many, many years now. It all started when we met with her and her husband as we researched photographers for our wedding. We immediately knew they were the right choice. They captured our engagement photos, our wedding (photo and video), bringing our first child home, and numerous family portraits. Dotti is so genuine, and truly skilled as an artist. She is experienced, thorough, and goes the extra mile to ensure your day is captured to the fullest extent. We watch our video every year with our children, it’s truly the best piece of our wedding and we treasure it greatly. We recommend Dotti to anyone who is looking, so much so that three of our closest friends also used her for their weddings, as well as my sister-in-law this past fall! Dotti’s work is impeccable, she’s truly the best!

From the moment we booked Dj Harrington Photography, their communication was on point. They made me feel completely worry-free leading up to the wedding. On the day, both photographers were amazing to have by our side - not only did they capture phenomenal shots, but they also reminded us to take a moment and enjoy ourselves. They felt like best friends following us around, and it didn't feel like we had just hired a couple for the day. Their passion, kindness, and talent were evident in every photo. I truly believe Dj Harrington Photography found their calling, and I am so grateful they were a part of our special day. They exceeded all of my expectations and I can't recommend them enough.

I am a Wife, Mother and Nana. I have always loved working with people, I have worked in retail, banking, hotels & restaurants. Then I decided to turn my favorite hobby into a business. So in 2005 L.A.'s Photography was born. I pride myself on treating my clients the way I would want to be treated. (Something I learned from my Papa) That means not only giving them a fair price & best photos I can deliver, but also helping them in anyway I can before and after their session or event. “What I like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever, impossible to reproduce.”-Karl LagerfeldA

LAs Photography has captured all of our big milestones. From engagement, to wedding and now even our growing family. Lori and her team are fantastic! Super easy to work with, great at capturing the moment, and overall super kind and friendly.

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

Awarded Best of Zola
Abby wasn’t able to travel to my wedding but she sent her assistants and she edited the photos. It went absolutely perfect. The photos were beautiful and I got so many meaningful photos with my family and his family that I wouldn’t have thought to get. I sent her draft of a timeline and the photographers printed it out and had it to make sure the photos I wanted got done. They were absolutely amazing. Thank you so much to Abby and her team.

Dani helped us with choosing our elopement location in Colorado! She listened to our must-haves for our location and provided us a list of options with info on permits and everything. She made the elopement process so easy! We picked our location off her advice :) We also had snow hit the day of our elopement and since it was just my husband & I plus the photographers, (Dani & Jed), she let us adjust our elopement time to get the best experience in the elements. They also followed my husband & I to our restaurant where we had dinner and took some amazing candid photos our first dinner as husband and wife. Such an incredible team and incredible experience. Hiring them was the best decision we made when we decided to elope!!

My cousin got married and used their service, and I new right off the first time I met thm that's who we wanted to photograph our wedding. I’ve never seen a more passionate Duo of photographers! Dave and Emily worked so great together and made everyone very comfortable. They went above and beyond with customer service and captured our wedding in a way that brings us back to our special day every time we look at our pictures. Our wall art and album are absolutely beautiful! They’ve managed to shoot the most special and important moments of our wedding day from so many different angles, and each of those photos can be easily put in a frame or on a canvas. That’s what I did actually. It was quite difficult to decide which photo to put on canvas because there were so many of them. We booked them for 9 hours, and they gave us so many great photos, and we were left absolutely speechless. My advice to all couples out there is don’t think twice and book them as soon as you can. We are now expecting our first baby and have already booked them for newborn photos! Thanks Emily and Dave!

If you are in the hunt for a wedding photographer look no further - this is who you want! We received a recommendation to check them out from a work colleague and I am SO THANKFUL because Kevin and Heather were truly the nicest couple we could have imagined working with for our big day. I'm extremely type A and a planner and loved how organized they are. From the initial video chat, to the engagement session, and ultimately our wedding day, everything ran so smoothly. My husband is not a big fan of having his photo taken and they made him so comfortable! They also had a photo preview of some sneak peeks ready for us on the wedding night which was so unexpected and such a nice surprise! I could not have asked for a better experience and am excited to work with them again in the future for family photos or other opportunities.

Both my husband and I are not super comfortable in front of the camera unless we’re being ourselves and silly, Claire was happy to work with that and allow us to have more fun and be ourselves (hello awkward family photo style pics!). The day of the wedding she not only arrived promptly, but was bright eyed and bushy tailed. Of course we ran behind, but she was great at keeping things calm but also making sure no time was wasted. 12/10 recommend Copper Stitch Photo Co.!

Awarded Best of Zola
We highly recommend AA Studios! They were our wedding videographers and we are so thankful we found them! They were easy to work with. Their communication from the very beginning was fantastic and it never faltered. They sent us a questionnaire to fill out that ended up being incredibly helpful with some wedding planning details we hadn’t even thought of yet. The day of they were on time and ready to go! They immediately got started with videoing details as we got ready. They were kind and accommodating all day. After, they continued their great communication and updated us often on where they were with the editing process. They provided multiple videos within the contracted time frame. Now…on to the quality of the finished products. AMAZING! We received a teaser video of a few seconds and it made us so excited for what was to come! After that was our highlight video. Watching that had us smiling from ear to ear as we remembered our day and saw things we didn’t see the day of. It was absolutely beautifully edited. We shared it with our friends and family on Facebook and everyone loved it as well. We also received our full ceremony, which I have watched probably 100 times since then. They captured every word, every emotion. Another video was our reception video. It included our entrance, cake cutting, speeches and dances. We love rewatching that and hearing the words spoken and laughing at our not so perfect dancing. Finally, we received an extended highlight video with some messages from family at the end. We loved it and having those moments captured! We are forever thankful that we found Alex and Anastasiia, we consider them friends now! We will always have these beautiful videos as a memory of how perfect our day was and how obvious our love for each other is. They even surprised us with a bonus gift when they sent our usb of the videos. Thank you a million times over! Now do yourself a favor and book them! You won’t regret it!!
