Saint Paul, MN
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Illinois for additional fees

My name is Meredith. I’m a self-taught photographer, an avid hiker, and a person who loves getting lost in their own city. If I am not photographing, you will either find me in one of two places, a coffee shop or out in nature usually eating my favorite snacks in fish form (Swedish or Gold), or belting anything from musicals to early 2000s country (yes there is a difference) to 90’s hip hop jams.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cross Lake Media went above and beyond to make our entire engagement seamless. Meredith highlighted our interests during engagement pictures. She met with us prior to the wedding to make sure everything was in order. Her and Shawna kept us on our schedule on the wedding day. Her editing is phenomenal. She lets the natural beauty shine, while adding her artistic style to each picture. She cared for us as a couple, not as “Just another client.” 10/10 recommend!

Awarded Best of Zola
I just want to start out by saying my fiancé and I are the literal worst when it comes to being in front of a camera. We’re awkward, we’re stiff & we joke too much lol. When looking for a wedding photographer I wanted to find someone of course who had talent and beautiful editing skills but I also wanted to be comfortable, I wanted something personal with my photographer. And boy did I hit the jackpot with Mina! Her skills are INCREDIBLE. Our photos are absolutely stunning and I’ve received so many compliments. Not only that but we received our photos so quickly. A lot of people only give you the bare minimum edited photos but she edited almost every single one!! I absolutely love her to death, she made my fiancé and I feel so comfortable that we were able to open up and I feel like she truly captured who we were. Not only did I secure the best photographer but I’ve also made a lifelong friend. 10/10 recommend

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.

Franzi Annika Photography

North Charleston, SC
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $8,999
  • Serves Illinois for additional fees

Welcome to Franzi Annika Photography, where elegance meets the artistry of visual storytelling. We are Franzi and Martin – a husband-wife duo. While our European roots shape our style, our dedication to the art of photography is what guides us. Through our in-the-moment, meticulous focus on the finer details, we create a collection of genuine narratives preserved on film. These photographs will continue to reflect the emotional depth of your celebration for generations to come.

You won’t find photographers more skilled or personable than Franzi and Martin! They photographed our engagement in Charleston, SC, rehearsal dinner and wedding in Boston, MA. We cannot recommend them highly enough for your next engagement session, wedding, or event! Working with them was a dream and we feel so lucky to have met them. First, if you took all the photography away, Franzi and Martin will enhance your wedding day just by being a part of it. They are warm, funny and fit right in with the gals/guys and families. They also got along and coordinated so well with our venue, floral designer and planner - everyone loved working with them. We all felt so comfortable around them and this is reflected in the natural, beautiful photos. They are also incredibly professional, prepared and organized. The morning of the wedding, they had already scouted and planned all of the locations for the first look, family and bridal party photos, and husband/wife shots. We didn’t have to do or think about a thing in terms of photos the entire day - we just followed their lead! During the ceremony and reception, they were so subtle in taking their photos. We were able to enjoy the day without it feeling like a photoshoot. The photos were simply stunning. We have gotten so many compliments on how unique and personal our photos are. Most importantly, they feel like us, because Franzi and Martin got to know us throughout this process. We had such a hard time putting together an album because we had too many favorites to choose from! One of the guiding values for choosing our wedding vendors was to find true artists who are passionate about their craft and then trust them to work their magic. Franzi and Martin are just that - artists. We wanted them to have complete creative control and freedom and would encourage everyone who works with them to do the same - your photos will be gorgeous, and your wedding day memories will be made better because Franzi and Martin were there.

I love mexican food, cats (and dogs!), and iced coffee. Books are my best friends, and I also double as a yoga teacher when I'm not doing photography related things. I have a weird obsession with fuzzy socks and I prefer movies over TV shows. Now on to the typical things you want to know about my journey in photography...I got my first camera in 2009 and basically haven't put it down since! I studied photography at Savannah College of Art and Design and started my freelance photography career when I graduated in 2016!

Marquette, MI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Illinois for additional fees

You’ve probably heard the meaning of opal as, “precious stone,” or “queen of gems,” but we’re really focused on the reflected light that an opal emits (we’re photographers and videographers after all, we're kind of obsessed with light). We’re really here to be a light to our clients, meaning it’s our priority to show love to everyone because of the love that we have been shown.

Tiffany is amazing at what she does. She is beyond professional and puts her clients first. I have always admired her work, as a fellow photographer. I recently attended a workshop she designed and hosted, and it was beyond my expectations. If you're a couple, looking for their intimate wedding photographer or a photographer looking to expand their knowledge and portfolio- don't hesitate to reach out to Tiffany!

Auburn, MA

  • Serves Illinois for additional fees

With over 10 years of industry experience, my strengths clearly lie in wedding and portraiture photography. Whether you're a recently engaged couple looking for someone to preserve your journey from fiancés to newlyweds through photographs, an expectant Mama hoping to capture your maternity glow or simply wanting to document you and your loved ones during whatever special season of life you're in, I would love to hear from you, I specialize in all types of portraiture but I am renowned for my wedding and engagement photography above all else. Whatever your photo needs are, I would love to chat and find out if we're a good match.

Sam was our girl from the beginning. She encouraged our pups in our engagement photos and worked around their lack of being photogenic. She pushed us, comfortably, out of our comfort zone. She was found by my Maid of Honor on Instagram and I immediately knew her style was what I had been looking for. When it came to wedding day I was most excited to see not only our photographer, but a friend. She was supportive, easy to work with and guided us in the right direction when needed. She knocked out our photos in a timely manor while positioning and giving great direction as to where to move to make the picture look better (something that was important to me). I am happy to scream her name for recommendations from now on & return to her in the future!

My photography journey began in 2016 in Western New York where I grew up. Over the years, I started capturing weddings and officially embraced the title of “wedding photographer” in 2018. Though I didn’t initially set out to be a photographer, what started as a hobby at 13 has blossomed into one of my greatest passions. I am currently based in Des Moines but I’m always open to traveling wherever you are. My passion extends to both photography and videography, and I would to be your go-to girl for capturing genuine moments that make you feel loved, and like your authentic self.

We are SO thankful for Whitney!! Our wedding day was seamless because she was so professional yet extremely personal! She was organized & experienced, yet still super flexible for whatever we wanted! Our photos came back super fast & we absolutely LOVE them!

Hi! Nice to meet you! I'm Mae and I’m an elopement and intimate wedding photographer ready to capture your love story in its most authentic form! I'm born and raised in New York City and love to travel, and would love to connect with you!

Mae Krell Photo was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very first interaction, they were communicative, professional, and made us feel so comfortable and at ease. As a queer couple where one of us is plus-size, we were nervous about being in front of the camera, but Mae put us right at ease. The photos they captured are absolutely beautiful - they have such an artistic eye and really highlighted the love and joy of our special day. We had never had professional photos taken before, but Mae made the entire experience comfortable and affordable. We would highly recommend Mae Krell Photo to any couple looking for gorgeous, personalized wedding photography.

If you’re looking to hire a wedding photographer who can capture your big day in a “not so traditional” way, then you’re in the right place.

We are creative beings at heart and love to tell stories unconventionally.

Erika is one of the most talented photographers I ever met. As wedding planner and designer I get to work with many great photographers but she is definitely one of my top to refer to.

I have been a photographer since 2014 and an artist my entire life. My business began to blossom in Kansas City in 2018 after I got married.

My husband and I had a crazy experience with our wedding because of Covid but Serenity was so nice and easy to work with. We were able to take our mind off of at least one thing- the pictures. It was so amazing to get the best pictures we could ask for and all the while just being us and having fun. We danced, laughed, road in a carriage, and it was all so magical. I will always use SerenityStyles when it comes to photography and will always recommend her to friends! I’ve never had such a calm and comfortable experience like I did with Serenity.

I have a passion for travel and I love meeting new people and hearing their crazy (or not so crazy) stories. I love trying new things and walking around a new city until my feet bleed (that's literally happened...still love you tho, NYC). I'm a major extrovert, but I have a great appreciation for the little things in life. You'll likely find me sipping some strong coffee at a local café or snuggled up on the couch with some wine, pizza, and my husband on a rainy day. With a camera in hand, I am probably the most annoying person to travel with, stopping every ten feet to take a picture. Sorry not sorry.

Awarded Best of Zola
Loved working with Allie! Not to mention the photos were exactly what we wanted. She was fun, on time, prepared, found a great 2nd shooter, and worked quickly! But we never felt rushed and got all the shots we wanted. She even bustled my dress :) haha. We did a mini session beforehand and were so pleased and it made us even more hyped for Wedding Day! She was responsive and easy to get ahold of!

A true artist at heart, Danielle has spent over twenty-five years behind a camera. For over a decade she has specialized in recording couples and families in some of their most joyous moments. Utilizing both digital and film, she documents not only the major moments, but the minor moments, too, that sometimes go amiss: the grandmother gazing fondly at the new generation. The proud tearful eyes of a parent watching as their child embarks on an exciting new chapter. Big or small, with her trained eye Danielle captures every brushstroke to fully realize the memory of your special day.

You will not regret having Danielle capture your special day. She has photographed at least 2 weddings in my family - and we always trust Danielle and her photographic genius capture our most important moments.

I am lucky; I get to do what I love for a living, have a ton of fun doing it, and meet a lot of great people along the way. It's a bonus that I get to also travel a lot for it as well. I hope to always bring that enthusiasm and fun to every wedding as well. I tell myself before every wedding to treat it like it was my very first. I do only weddings, and I only do 30 per year. This lets me focus on my couples and their weddings, and to tell their stories completely. Over 400 weddings spanning 12+ years. And I have never missed a one. Not even late. I may not take myself too seriously, but I take my commitment to my couple seriously.

Storyteller Collective Photo Co., proudly located in Ames and serving the vibrant community of Des Moines, Iowa, and beyond. I began this company many moons ago with a solid purpose - to make people feel something and to evoke genuine emotions through my photography. My passion lies in documenting individuals as they live their best lives, immersed in the activities and passions that fuel their souls. As a non-traditional photographer, I thrive on capturing authentic memories rather than elaborate setups. It's about freezing moments in time that speak volumes and resonate deeply with those who experience them.

I have worked with Storyteller Collective as a second photographer (wedding), and she is so relaxed and also efficient. She works with a sense of urgency but doesn't rush her clients. She knows her stuff when it comes to weddings and knows exactly how to arrange the day so that it serves her client. She's also very, very good at adapting when things change (like when it rains on an outdoor ceremony) and reassuring her clients that we've still got it covered. She is a really good person who is fun to work with. She produces high quality work on the regular and her work is so beautiful!

South Pasadena, CA
  • Photojournalistic style

I am a documentary wedding photographer -- I'm all about capturing real moments. In my photographs, I’m always shooting with an eye for color, light, and dynamic shadows. I integrate these technical aspects with my background in film, literature and storytelling so with every wedding, I create a series of documentary photos that recreates the authentic narrative of a day. I’m always chasing the candid, the emotional, even the un-noticed everyday details; things that make you do a double take, little moments that make your heart swell.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rebecca was awesome beyond words and we highly recommend her. Our wedding was non-traditional and posed some unique challenges. We threw a backyard Halloween party and surprised our guests by exchanging vows at midnight. To go along with the surprise and remain incognito, Rebecca showed up in costume as an old-timey reporter with a "PRESS" marker tucked in her hatband. She pulled the ruse off flawlessly, blending in and chatting effortlessly with our friends so that she could capture those perfectly candid and special moments throughout the night. No one appeared camera shy, no one looked awkward or directed, every last portrait was of a cherished friend at their joyous best. We had been initially concerned about our lighting conditions since the event was outdoors and at night. We couldn't go too overboard with party lights, nor did we want our photographer to be milling through the crowd with a bright flash. Rebecca laid our concerns to rest well before the event, and her expertise with low-light shooting is on display in our gallery. The photos were absolutely stunning. Some of our favorites were the amazingly touching and genuine reactions of surprise when we revealed we were getting married. We could not be happier or have asked for a better photographer experience. We'll cherish these beautiful mementos for the rest of our lives and we cannot recommend Rebecca y las otras enough.

Meghan was such a pleasure to work with and we kept saying over and over again throughout the wedding process, “We are so how grateful we booked her!” Literally you ask any of our family and friends what was the phrase we said the most throughout our wedding process was, “We absolutely love our photographer!” She made us feel relaxed throughout the entire process and truly helped us get not just the photos that we desired but BEYOND that. She is an absolute artist at finding the perfect shot and her positive attitude helps you feel at peace while you’re planning all the details of your wedding day. I can not recommend Meghan and her team enough. Absolute professionals!

Hi there! We’re Tracey-Ann and Martin, wife and husband photography team, and we’re ready to capture the fun and romance of your wedding day. We’ve been documenting love stories for 14+ years (and happily married even longer!) and, along with beautiful photos, our intention is to infuse your day with pure joy! Partners in life and business, we use our synchronicity to document your day and to capture those special candid moments that make your wedding unique.

My husband and I are so incredibly grateful to have met and worked with Tracey and Martin. Not only are they incredible photographers, but wonderful human beings as well. Their positive energy and passion for what they do shines through in their work and in the way that they treat their clients. All of the pictures they took captured our special day perfectly and the slideshows they put together had both myself and my husband tearing up. My husband and I are not super into taking pictures and tend to feel a little bit awkward, but Tracey and Martin made us feel relaxed and at ease for all of our photos. We can't say enough good things about the two of them and strongly recommend Tracey and Martin to anyone looking to an amazing photography team! :)

Hello! I'm Anna, an Omaha Wedding Photographer who specializes in timeless photos with a classic edit.

If you're looking for a wedding photographer in Omaha, Nebraska, I would love to talk with you!

Awarded Best of Zola
Anna is an amazing artist with a clear vision. She is the most infectious ball of energy and just sweetest person. Working with her was so easy and she completely understood everything we envisioned. From last minute planned engagement session to a long minute by minute planned out wedding day, she was calm cool and collected every moment. She took charge when she needed to and was very into the candid moments as well. After hours of research into our photographer, we could not imagine our day with anyone else. STUNNING PHOTOS.

Moira was the best photographer we could have hoped for! Not only was she flexible in the ever changing craziness of the day, but she made it so fun! We laughed pretty much the whole day through and it literally felt like we were working with a friend. On top of all that, the photos that we’ve received so far are absolutely amazing! She really captured the best parts of the entire day.

I don’t take myself too seriously. I like to have a good time. I spelI things how i want and I will never wait for a crosswalk. I prefer quality over quantity. Unless we’re talking about coffee, chocolate, wine, shopping, and deals…then i want quality and quantity. I’ve got a potty mouth and a good heart. I give so many fucks about what I do. The details, the experience and creating some real good imagery. I’m an artist and I want to create something beautiful for you.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we met Andria, we knew she was the perfect photographer to capture our wedding day. Her eye for detail and capturing images is truly exceptional. Her photos feel like velvety heirlooms that we treasure every time we look at them. Her knowledge and experience were invaluable on our wedding day, she was the ultimate MC and helped make our day flawless. While a constant professional, she still made sure everyone had fun and was comfortable in front of the camera. What started as our engagement and wedding photographer, continued with a boudoir shoot, two newborn shoots and two 1 year-old shoots (7 sessions!). We hope to have Andria involved in our family's future milestones, as long as she'll have us.

I’m Stacy Able, a professional photographer based in Indianapolis, Indiana. My passion for photography began with my Bachelor’s of Science degree from Clemson University in Graphic Communications. I specialize in local and destination weddings and have captured over 350+ celebrations. My photography assignments have taken me from right here in Indy My photography assignments have taken me from Illinois, California, Washington State, North Carolina, Florida, and New York along with international destinations such as: Guatemala, Italy, Mexico, Canada, and the Dominican Republic.

I can't think of anything Stacy and her second-shooter, Walter, could have done better. They melted into the background when it was time for candid shots, they took command when people needed to be wrangled for group shots, and they went above and beyond to make the day as perfect as possible. The best example is Walter going and getting our dog from the hotel room so we could get some shots with him. The photos are beautiful too! As someone who is typically not very photogenic, I am amazed at how many gorgeous photos of me Stacy captured. 10/10, absolutely would hire again and we may travel back to the location of our out-of-day wedding in the future for her to photograph future milestones. Thank you Stacy and Walter!

Laura Christine Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography needs. From the beginning, their communication was fast and helpful, putting us at ease throughout the planning process. The quality of their work was outstanding - they are true professionals who captured every special moment of our day with excellence. Laura went above and beyond to make our day even more memorable, always being on top of everything and making our guests feel comfortable.

The pictures are absolutely breathtaking, and we cannot recommend Laura Christine Photography enough.

With a passion for blending editorial sophistication and candid spontaneity, I have honed my craft over the last 6 years, capturing the laughter, tears, and all the tender moments in between. The commitment I make to you extends beyond photography. My meticulous approach begins with anticipating your needs even before they arise, ensuring a seamless, elegant experience. I hold the value of family close to my heart, treating your loved ones as if they were my own, collaborating harmoniously with your vendors, and providing clear communication to ensure your day unfolds flawlessly.

If you're looking at these reviews, I am assuming you are interested in booking Kayla as your wedding photgrapher, and all I have to say is DO IT. Kayla is amazing. She photographed both mine and my brothers weddings. Here are a few things I loved most about having Kayla as my photographer (from a bride)! 1) stress free. Kayla asks for your input and list of wanted photos weeks leading up to the wedding. She then creates a list for day of and takes care of the rest. I did not have to do a single thing managing what photos I wanted the day of my wedding. It allowed me to really enjoy the moment and be present (which is exactly what I wanted). 2) natural candid photos. Kayla does an amazing job of getting your natural smile in photos. I loved my photos. 3) SO many good photos. Kayla provided us with SO many photos to choose from. This allowed me to print off a variety so I didnt have the same few photos all over my house. 4) Comfort. Kayla did an amazing job making me and my husband feel comfortable day of and in the photos. 5) made my vision come true! With both venues we booked, I had a vision of wanting to use the entire venue to allow for different photos opportunities. One of the ideas I had were 'getting ready' photos with my husband in the kitchen. Kayla made my vision more than come true. These are some of my favorite photos she took, and allowed my husband and I to spend time together before walking down the aisle. I am a very picky person, but I would do everything all over again the same exact way for my wedding, including having Kayla as the photographer. I could not recommend Kayla enough!

We are two best friends creating memories with our cameras! We are passionate wedding photographers who strive to capture the special moments that will stay with you forever. We are catching the dreams, we are catching the lights.

I’ve worked alongside andres/lights wedding photography multiple times and it is such an honor to work alongside him!!! He has a calm demeanor, gets shots that are TRULY works of art, and is amazing at instructing couples in what to do. He also works amazingly with vendors, and was always making sure we were staying out of each others way and working as a team. By far my favorite vendor to work alongside. You would be lucky to hire him as your wedding photographer!
