  • Serves Idyllwild, CA for additional fees

First off just like that, the day got a whole lot better now that you are here! But let’s get one thing straight: if you are here, I want you to feel free to be YOU! Being true to who you are makes this process a hell of a lot easier! This is a judgment-free free safe space, and I want you to be as comfortable as humanly possible! Now that’s out the way, I'm Jovan Kiah, specializing in wedding and portrait photography located somewhere in the cornfields of Indiana. But always prepared for a photography adventure, I’m already packed with a suitcase of snacks, my passport, & playlist that spans from Disney musicals to '90s R&B hits.

Jovan was such a pleasure to work with. Me and my partner often find it hard to really connect and feel comfortable in front of the camera yet she made us feel right at home. Would 100% recommend and do plan on working with her again in the future.

Stephanie captured our day perfectly! Our love really shined through in every photograph. Stephanie was very fun to work with and she catered to all of our photography preferences and took all the shots we were hoping to get. It was clear she knew how to adapt to new settings, lighting, and the different personalities of our wedding party, family, and friends. Her time management was spot on and she guided us through the whole hour after the ceremony where you take most of your portraits - a time that feels super rushed and time is of the essence - but she helped us feel calm and be present. Overall, a very pleasant experience and we will treasure our wedding photographs for many years to come.

THE HOLY GRAIL OF WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS. Truly the best experience and photographer I could have asked for. This young woman is highly artistic, professional, hard working, and goes above and beyond to ensure you have the best photos and session experience. She has taken my graduation photos, engagement photos, and now wedding photos. She offers great customizable package deals well worth your money. She asks all the right questions to ensure you get the photos you want. She arrives early, drives or travels to any lengths, and delivers her photos early. She makes you feel comfortable, brings out the natural candid side of you (and your man for those of you with shy and camera timid men like mine). She captures all the important moments during your event and offers a second shooter for extra coverage. I could not have asked for a better photographer or experience. What an artist.

I'm in love with human emotions, either it's laughing till it hurts or tears of happiness. When your man hugs you so strong, that you can't breathe or when your dad is crying (for the first time in his life!) listening to your vows at the altar. I do believe, that these un-staged moments are more meaningful than classy portraits on a sunset (but no worries, you'll plenty of both!) If you feel like we are on the same page - let's talk! Write me a few words about who you are, tell me your story and let's create something beautiful together!

Awarded Best of Zola
We've had our first love story photoshoot with her this spring. Both of us were so shy and new to this, but Dasha not only made us feel comfortable but also be ourselves! All the posing and picture ideas, we didn't have to worry about. And finally, the pictures came out amazing! We were so happy with the photoshoot process and the photos that we knew we wanted her to be our wedding photographer. Dasha was with us from early morning till almost midnight and we couldn't be happier! I even felt like she was one of my bridesmaids and closest friends, always helping around and making me feel less nervous! We just got our wedding pictures a few days back and we just wanted to share them all at once! We're very happy with our choice!! Thank You Dasha for everything!

I booked Alisa Sue Photography before I even secured my venue if that tells you anything about how confident I was that I loved her photography style and vision. I was so happy to get to meet her and her husband, Wayne, on our wedding day. She was the best hypewoman and made me feel beautiful and confident in all our pictures! It also felt so natural posing for pictures with her guidance. She and Wayne were such a dream team. I also hired Snap Pic Photo Booth (owned by them as well) and we loved our backdrop and the props and the print template design! ALSO, she literally turned around some edits so fast. Literally lunchtime the day after our wedding, she had already posted a handful of edited photos from our wedding to her Instagram. How amazing is she!!!

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.

Alyssa and her husband were an efficient, friendly, and reliable team who captured all the special moments from our big day. Their communication style made planning easy, and they worked seamlessly in the background on our wedding day to get fantastic shots without ever being intrusive. The quality of Alyssa's work is excellent - the photos are timeless, classic, and thorough in documenting our wedding from start to finish. We absolutely loved having Alyssa there and can't recommend her highly enough! Her photography style results in gorgeous, meaningful images that we will treasure forever. We're so grateful we chose Alyssa Marie Photography to document our special day.

I am based out of Connecticut + New England but also travel for destination weddings. I am passionate about creating long lasting memories with my clients. I love to travel (15+ countries and counting!), discover new places and meet new people. Fun fact: I'm a french citizen that moved to the United States in 2016.

We had such a wonderful experience with Ben and his 2nd photographer, Zee for our August wedding. Ben was very on-the-ball and reliable during the whole wedding process; he communicates clearly and made us feel so comfortable and relaxed taking all the photos. He has incredible talent and our wedding album was more beautiful than we could have ever imagined or hoped for. Photography is such an important wedding aspect, and there's no one else I would've felt so comfortable holding that responsibility than Ben. Ben and Zee captured every little moment and emotion felt on our wedding day and I'm grateful we will be able to relive the day through their photos. I will definitely be recommending Ben to my friends and family for their weddings and any photoshoot needs!

I began my photography journey in 2008 and have been shooting ever since! My love of music and travel initially took me to Nashville, where I studied under some of the best celebrity and music photographers in the business. The City of Music lead me to tour with Jesse McCartney and shoot some amazing musicians including Blake Shelton, Outkast, and the Backstreet Boys (a personal childhood dream of mine). However, the mountains were calling (as they say), and I ended up moving back to Colorado, my home state, in 2015 to begin my journey documenting love in all its forms!

I bought my first DSLR camera in 2004 when my now wife, Tracey, and I were taking a cruise to Alaska. For a monumental trip like this, I HAD to get an amazing camera. Those 8.2 megapixels with nine four points had me in LOVE. Ever since then, the ability of a photograph to be able to freeze time; freeze an emotion; freeze a memory has kept me addicted. Whether it’s getting a great angle, finding light that tells the story, or capturing the true personality of someone; it all brings a smile to my face and hopefully yours!

Chris photographed our wedding in October of 2021 and did an INCREDIBLE job. We started with an engagement shoot that was a great way to practice for our wedding day. We learned all of the popular poses so that on our actual wedding day we didn’t feel awkward posing. He was incredibly organized and thorough throughout the entire process and the results were perfect. The entire day was planned out and he photographed every shot we wanted. We also had a beautiful wedding video and I had special requests for the video that he easily accommodated! The entire day ran smoothly thanks to his organization. He was extremely professional but we also had SO much fun. I felt like I was with a friend throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Chris for any event.

My name is Abby, a Midwest based wedding + boudoir photographer who's really obsessed with her job. I've gotten to see how directly photos can impact people. As we grow up, we realize how priceless photos are and how quality pictures become prized possessions. It's a moment in time you can forever look back on. It's easy to take pictures, but it's hard to capture moments. I'll love making magic with you, because everyone has some magic in them that deserves to be celebrated.

Abby is simply incredible. She works hard to make all parties comfortable, heard and loved. She makes all special moments a little more special. The ability to capture any and all little moments of intimacy is a rare find and you will not be disappointed.

When My Wiiiiife and I hired Natural Unions, we expected photography. What we Didn't expect was light wedding planning, the ability for The Great Kira: Destroyer of Frowns to be able to help us locate an alternative wedding venue on short notice due to potential weather issues, AND for such exceptional local scouting for the most fantastic locations not only for portraits, but also the ceremony location itself. If you want the same boring overpriced stuff, hire someone else. If you want more fun than you bargained for, and unique lasting snapshots of your special day, hire Natural Unions.

I'm a Boston based weddings & elopement photojournalist serving New England & beyond. My style is authentic, nostalgic, and a calculated blend of soft and romantic + moody and edgy. I think minimalism is lazy and I want you to look at my work and feel something. My goal is to make you feel so present that you forget I have a camera in my hand while I’m photographing you. I believe it’s my job to remind you of how beautiful and fleeting life is. My hope is that after our session is over, my work turns into some of your most cherished memories decorating your home and your hearts.

Caroline is one of the greatest people. She was kind, observant, and extremely professional. Not to mention her work completely speaks for itself. Our previews are absolutely beautiful- she really made our photos a keepsake and I am so happy we were able to work with her.

I've had a camera in my hands for as long as I can remember; I used it like a pocket journal of sorts and photographed constantly while growing up in Hawai'i. I fell into weddings when my dad remarried in 2013, and I remember being caught off guard by the swirl of emotions I felt standing at the edge of a new beginning. Turning those feelings into tangible memories was the only thing that made sense. I moved to New York City to refine my skillset and took a detour into the fashion industry before receiving my Bachelor's in photography from NYU.

Awarded Best of Zola
Without a doubt, Natalie was the best 'purchase' of our wedding. We hummed and hawwed for months about whether or not to get a photographer - everyone has an iPhone right? They take pretty good shots. And a photographer makes up a significant portion of the budget. We were so very wrong on all counts. Every time I look through both our engagement shoot, and our wedding, I get teary. She has managed to capture the very essence of us, our emotions, our personalities and all of the special moments that made up the day. In the end we asked everyone to put away their phones and let Natalie and her amazing co-pilot husband Conor, do their work. Which they did beautifully. Natalie is an NYU trained photographer - her photographs are a mixture of fine art, portrait and breathtaking scenic shots. There's no WAY you can capture the heart of a day without a professional, and even some of those don't manage to get it right. Natalie does it all with a laugh, a smile, and an ability to make everyone feel at ease. Nearly every one of our guests commented on how much they liked our photographer - she made them feel at ease and was never intrusive or rude, like many photographers can be to guests. On this point, it was also important to us that we got shots of everyone having fun at the wedding - we didn't want to end up with 800 photos of just the two of us, like so many portfolio wedding albums we saw. Natalie and Conor made sure that they covered everything - we have photos of all of our loved ones enjoying themselves. We love it! Finally, in terms of support, Natalie is incredibly responsive, able to work to both a timeline and a direction, and her edits are speedy and beautiful. We made a life-long friend in Natalie and know that we will be hiring her again to capture all of life's most important moments. We cannot thank, or recommend her enough. Now, stop debating and get in touch with her! It'll be the best and easiest wedding decision you've made.

Your wedding photos are something you’ll cherish forever, so it was important to me and my husband that we prioritized a good photographer and Stacie far exceeded that expectation. We have so many amazing photos of not only just ourselves but everyone at our wedding which is special to us. We highly recommend Stacie with Vitae Weddings!!

Katie and David were a dream team for our May 2024 Wedding! They were one of our favorite vendors! We met with Katie almost 1.5 years prior to our wedding and were immediately put at ease and booked right away. We chose a 10 hour, 2 photographer package to make sure that we had all our bases covered - and we are SO happy that we did. From our engagement session in April 2023 to our wedding in May 2024, Katie and David made us feel so comfortable, confident and relaxed. Katie made sure we had all the shots we wanted and was so understanding and flexible with varying family dynamics, self-confidence worries, etc. She kept everything on track, in conjunction with our coordinator, and really made everything so fun and effortless! We received our sneak peeks 2-3 days after the wedding and they were STUNNING! We cannot wait to see the full gallery!! The day-of the wedding, we were worried it was going to storm and Katie came prepared with alternative options and photos that would have embraced the rain in all it's glory - really putting us at ease. Luckily, the weather cleared up and we were back to Plan A - but we know that she would have made the best of the situation! We could not recommend Katie enough and feel so lucky to be one of her wedding couples! We would re-book her in a heartbeat! We cannot thank them enough for giving us our memories to last a lifetime!!

Blooming Faith Photography was a MUST HAVE vendor for our wedding. I would have rescheduled if she wasn’t available! I’ve been working with Melissa for years, and she is one of the kindest, most talented, and professional people in the industry. She knows the locations so well, and has an eye for the best places for the best shots! She is super flexible, and as a bride she made me feel super calm the entire day (which is not easy for me)! I HIGHLY recommend Blooming Faith Photography!

You might catch me watching Emily in Paris while snuggled next to our giant lap dogs Lulu and Buddy or traveling the world to inspiring places with my husband (and best friend) Audie. I studied photography at the Academy of Art University in my favorite city by the bay, San Francisco. I continuously develop and modernize my knowledge and experience by utilizing my member resources provided by the Professional Photographers of America (PPA) Association.

I had the great pleasure of working with Nicole for an event at Kings River Winery in Dec. 2021. We had a pretty complicated family situation during this event that could have caused issues for the timeline. But Nicole was able to help keep the bride moving and calm. And kept up with the timeline like a champ! Rolling with the punches is such a great trait for a wedding vendor to have because events can take on a life of their own. Nicole was able to keep up with the events needs and still completed her job fabulously. Additionally after the event she was lovely enough to send over a vendor gallery that does wonders for other business. Which shows her understanding of the nature of our industry, her care for others and her ability to work well with others. If I could give more stars I would!

Aireal is an absolute gem! From the moment we connected with her, we knew we had found the perfect wedding photographer for us. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she also made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera (which isn’t easy!). She captured every moment perfectly—both the big, emotional ones and the sweet little candid moments we didn’t even realize were happening. Her attention to detail is amazing, and she has such a creative eye. Our photos are absolutely stunning, and we’ve received so many compliments from family and friends. What we appreciated the most was how personal and invested Aireal was throughout the entire process. She genuinely cared about making us feel comfortable and our day special and worked seamlessly with our other vendors to keep everything on track. Plus, her energy and enthusiasm were so contagious throughout the day! If you’re looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond to capture your love story, Aireal is your girl.

We loved working with Chelsea and Jack. The style of their photos was what we wanted—classic, timeless, natural and true to color. They were a joy to be around and while present, seemed to fade into the background, allowing us to be together and in the moment. However, we both felt like they became friends throughout the day. She sent us a sneak peak while we were on our honeymoon and we can’t wait to see more!

From the moment we first spoke with LT² Photography, we knew we were in good hands. Their warm, engaging, and genuinely personal communication style put us at ease and made us feel like we were their top priority. The quality of their work is truly exceptional - authentic, timeless, and comprehensive, with a creative flair that captured the luxurious feel of our wedding day. When my hair and makeup team was running late, LaDonna stepped in with her calming presence and expert experience to ensure I remained poised and picture-ready. And my husband, who is typically camera-shy, raved about how comfortable and at-ease Demetrius made him feel, resulting in some of the most genuine and joyful photos we've ever seen. We couldn't have asked for more from our photography team, and feel like absolute royalty looking back on our stunning wedding album. Booking LT² was worth every penny, and we are forever grateful for the way they went above and beyond to make our day so special.

Hi! I’m Gabriela, but you can call me Gaby! I’ve been a photographer and storyteller for more than seven years. It’s something I’ve always been passionate about… Creating Art. I know love, I know how deep it is and I can see the undeniable connection between two people. I’ve always believed we all should love WITHOUT FEAR. I want my photography to be a storytelling, natural, authentic, and timeless piece of art that reflects what’s truly there. To make love transcend the screen and make people feel it, because… Love has NO BOUNDARIES.

Finding the right wedding photographer was incredibly important to us. We needed someone whose style and art matched our vision. Thankfully we found Gabriela. As soon as we saw her work and explored her page we knew she was a perfect fit. With our wedding being a destination wedding, communication was no issue. She made us feel comfortable and understood our vision perfectly. On our wedding day Gaby was amazing!! She blended into the background capturing all the special moments without us even noticing. I'm so glad we were able to enjoy our day without having to think of photos we needed since Gaby was able to capture every smile, hugs and intimate moments. After the wedding Gaby was so quick with delivering sneak peek photos and even quicker with the finished gallery. Each picture brings us back to that day, and we can feel the emotions all over again. I wholeheartedly recommend Gabriela for your special day. Thank you so much for giving us such wonderful memories to last us forever.

I have been professionally capturing images for over 10 years. During that time, I built a successful promotional marketing company in Canada, received my MBA in Ireland, and moved to the San Francisco Bay Area with my wife. My favorite part about photography are the stories that are captured, the frozen moments in time that each picture highlights. Over the course of my career, I have been asked to tell thousands of stories. With the ability to operate in the United States, Canada, and Europe, I’m no stranger to traveling for a good story.

Working with Harrison is always a pleasure. He is prompt, professional, and delivers top-tier quality. When first starting out he was happy to provide us advice, and has provided technical assistance onsite on a number of occasions. You can't go wrong when collaborating with Harrison on an event, or on anything else.
