  • Photographer

When I first started wedding photography, I made a goal of being more than just the photographer on your big day. I made it my goal to be your friend, someone you can crack inside jokes with, and someone who isn't afraid to get down + have fun at the reception (while still doing her job). I made it my goal to capture more than just photos, but an experience. Whether it’s high in the mountains, on a beach near the ocean, in a forest meadow - you deserve to get married however you want to & I want to capture it for you.

L & L Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding day. Lexi, one of the photographers, was incredibly effective and charismatic in her communication style, making the experience fun and easy. She was patient in answering all our questions and ensuring every moment was captured beautifully. The quality of their work is truly top tier, and their services are very affordable, making them a tremendous value. Lexi rocked every single moment, seamlessly blending into the celebration and creating absolute magic with her moody, romantic photography style. I've worked with many photographers, and Lexi is now my go-to - I cannot recommend L & L Photography highly enough.

I resonate with intimate, honest weddings, ones that present as unique and authentic, ones with tradition but they threw that tradition out the door and made their day an authentic representation of their marriage. As an artist, I am able to document weddings while incorporating my own artistic visions and yours. I love natural light, nature, and intimate moments. It is important to me for you to trust me as photography is a collaboration.

I can't even begin to say how spectacular Megan's work is. She puts so much love into her craft and creates stunning photo stories for a variety of occasions. She is a great location scout and goes above and beyond to get unique and beautiful shots. My husband and I got married at the Salish Lodge at Snoqualmie Falls in Washington. We are huge Twin Peaks fans and live nearby. Megan came out to photograph our wedding and was an absolute dream to work with. We get so many compliments on how epic our photos are! If you want top quality and thoughtful work, go to Megan! She truly loves her craft and it shows.

Fine art wedding photographer based in Phoenix AZ, and ready to capture your natural and authentic day! I have traveled and photographed over 150 weddings and believe in capturing the real emotion that happens on your wedding day with timeless editing . From elopements and backyard weddings to large venue banquets, I have all your photographic needs covered. I wear many hats during your wedding to be sure it is as stress free as possible. While I do not replace a wedding coordinator, my duties to you on your day, do overlap. I want to make sure that you enjoy every moment and that after you have stunning photos to fondly look back on.

Absolutely thrilled to share our experience with our amazing wedding photographer, Kristy Velesko! From start to finish, Kristy displayed exceptional communication skills, ensuring that every detail was perfectly planned, and answering all my emails and questions so promptly. Her energy and friendliness were contagious, making everyone feel at ease and adding a special spark to our day. Everyone in my wedding party loved working with Kristy! Kristy's vast knowledge about weddings was invaluable. She anticipated our needs and had creative solutions for everything (like how do I go to the ladies room in a HUGE ballgown - she knew!). Her artistic talent truly sets her apart; she photoshopped a stunning castle into our wedding photos, making our fairytale dreams come true! Not all photographers have this additional skill set! One of the standout moments was Kristy's ability to be the “bad guy” for us, especially when managing the bridal party. She expertly directed the groomsmen, ensuring everyone was in the right place at the right time. Especially when my groom gave them all lightsabers as gifts, you can assume the craziness that ensued! But everyone loved her even if she had to be bossy with them! A highlight was how impressed Disney’s Fairytale Weddings team was with her work. They couldn’t stop raving about her professionalism and the vibrant, beautiful photos she captured. Kristy truly has a gift for photography, and we are beyond grateful for the magical memories she created for us. We have since asked her to do family portraits and since I had 3 wedding gowns (Yes, 3!) - we had her do more portraits. They were all so gorgeous! Haven’t had a bad photo and I love how she knows exactly the directions to give us to get the best photos! Highly recommend her for any special occasion!

Where to start? During the first phone call with Sarah, even after we told her we were interviewing multiple photographers, she offered us pointers and advice to consider when choosing our photographer, not her as the photographer, but OUR photographer. From the beginning she wanted to ensure that we had the best fit for us. She went above and beyond by coming to our venues prior to the wedding to "get the feel" of what she would need to capture the perfect moments. On the day of the wedding (when it was pure chaos) she adapted quickly, efficiently and went with the flow. Sarah and Ben are incredibly kind, thoughtful, and have a wonderful sense of humor. All of the photos they took are amazing and very unique. The emotion captured by each photo brought us to laughter or tears, but both in a good way! We could not have picked a better photographer, and we cannot thank them enough for all they did!

  • Serves Hays, NC for additional fees

Wedding photographs should honor your relationship and highlight your unique connection. More than simple validation, they are a declaration that love knows no boundaries. So, it’s important to find a photographer who understands the full scope of your story, someone who sees both the broader significance and its personal meaning. And someone who captures it all through unforgettable photographs. When it comes to photography, it takes a non-traditional perspective to look beyond the obvious and capture the hidden bits of who you two really are.

Raven documented my wedding day with such care and clarity. In her pictures, I see the settings, people, and details, when it all happened. Lush greenery and orange leaves where my partner and I said our vows. My aunt smiling as she met my baby daughter. Hugs with guests after our ceremony. The flowers on my alternative style dress. Amazingly, she got many of these shots when the people in the photos did not realize it. They're not only a killer record of what happened that day. Her pictures are lovely and naturalistic with vibrant colors. Killer wedding day coverage is not the only thing you get with Raven. She is great to work with throughout the process, always warm, well-organized and punctual.

Meghan Ann Imagery LLC was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, her communication was very clear, and on a personal level she is incredibly kind and sweet to deal with. We weren't initially planning to have a photographer since this was our very small "legal" wedding and we were planning a larger destination wedding, but we're so glad we decided to book Meghan last minute. On Mother's Day, she gladly accepted the job and captured every special moment beautifully.

Salt & Ivy was an absolute dream to work with. Highly communicative, professional, punctual, and absolute artists. From booking to receiving the photos, they were so amazing to work with. I (the bride) am typically very uncomfortable taking photographs. This was the first time in my life that I was actually at ease and having fun. 10/10 would and will book them again in the future for family/maternity photographs.

Josie was the one of best decisions we made for our wedding! She is incredibly kind, thoughtful, and thorough. She builds a relation with the couple so everyone is comfortable, and takes the time to get to know you. She asks for input each step of the way, and makes sure that the couples desired shots and ideas are clear to her. She kept us sane throughout the process, and took charge when needed. We are so thankful to have found a friend in her, and so blessed to have had her as our wedding photographer!

Heyyy! I'm Sam. I'm the creative soul behind Enchanted Aura Photography. I'm a short (sometimes spicy) Aries who loves coffee, antiques & wandering outside on a sunny day. I have always been the type of person to find beauty in the most mundane moments and I wholeheartedly believe that has translated into my passion for photography. When I'm not glued to a camera or laptop, i'm spending time with my husband and toddler (while chasing around our 2 dogs & 1 cat lol). I love rotting away watching reruns of Jersey Shore or Mad Men, Crocheting, Painting & Hyperfixating on random projects. :)

Enchanted Aura Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! Their communication style was responsive, timely, and personable, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. The quality of their work was amazing - they were dedicated, provided wonderful attention to detail, and truly captured the spirit of our special day. They listened to all our ideas for pictures, including a fun mob-themed sweetheart table photo shoot that they absolutely nailed. The photographer was a blast to interact with during the getting ready process and her fun attitude and humor made the day even more perfect. Enchanted Aura Photography really prides themselves on their work and it shows in the beautiful, lasting memories they created for us.

We're here to help however you need; EVEN on a small budget!

Suzanna is a fantastic wedding planner. She was very communicative and receptive to what we envisioned and gave us fitting options to guide us in the direction we wanted to go. She was flexible and accommodating when we ended up changing our mind about a certain design element (especially the floral arrangements lol) and when it came to the day of, she delegated tasks expertly and got everything set up exactly how we wanted and then some. I don’t plan on getting married again, but if I did, I’d hire her again without a second thought!

Hi! A little bit about my business is I started Nanii Negron films back in 2020 with an "experiment". Which was, "What is it that I can do with my drone and camera". At the time I just decided to buy a Canon M50 and a Phantom Pro Drone, why you ask? I don't know either! Haha. All I know is God knew what he was doing. With a mentor & no experience, I can proudly say I own a profitable videography company going on 2 years strong! I love meeting new clients and creating that bond that feels like we have been friends for years! At Nanii Negron films we go above and beyond for our clients to create a beautiful and timeless videos!

Hi, I'm Victory! I'm a professional photographer based in University Place, Washington. I've been behind the camera for over 8 years and captured countless stories. I LOVE love and every day I feel so blessed to have a business that constantly allows me to celebrate and appreciate it with each of my couples. My goal is that the photos from each wedding are organic and true to each unique couple that I work with.

From our first interaction with Victory Dawn Photography, we were impressed by their detailed, cheerful, and thoughtful communication. They were incredibly timely in responding to our questions and flexible in accommodating our needs on the day of the wedding. The quality of their work is truly stunning - the photos are bright, focused, and capture all the special moments with such care and creativity. Victory's positive energy and willingness to work with my camera-shy guy put us completely at ease, and they even managed to get him happily posing for fun, natural shots. We are thrilled with the beautiful memories they have provided us, and cannot recommend Victory Dawn Photography highly enough.

I love what I get to do!! It’s my PASSION! I enjoy capturing all of the beautiful and unscripted moments. I love how every wedding is different and each one presents its unique moments that I seek after. I also do photography but I gotta say, there’s something extra special about being able to bring those photos to life and turning them into your own movie, so that you can relive every moment of your day instead of just seeing them in pictures. You get to feel the emotions and relive the moments with loved ones.

Alex is one of our favorite photographers to work with. He is not only professional and quick to respond, but his work is high quality! He is able to truly capture the love a couple Or family has for one another! We recommend him to all of our clients and have placed him on our preferred vendor list because his works speaks for itself!
