Team Yellow Rose truly brought our vision to life. From our initial consultation, I knew that Isabel and I were on the same page. Isabel was creative with different ways to maintain our budget. She went above and beyond by MAKING CANDLES in the exact shade I wanted when we could not find any. Though we did not meet in person often, she was always a quick text or call away which we really valued. I can't thank this team enough for making our dream wedding a reality.

Jeremiah and his wife were such a pleasure to work with! They are such sweet people and they made the entire process so easy. With the shared app they were able to customize everything for us. They were very communicative throughout the whole process and made it easy for us to jump on a call with them or shoot them a text if we wanted to customize something or had any questions. We had a live violinist playing as I walked down the aisle and Jeremiah provided the piano accompaniment so perfectly. They definitely know how to read a crowd and would change up the music as needed. They also provided lighting for us which was great. They even shared some great photos and videos with us after the wedding which was an added bonus. Everything about our wedding was so perfect and we owe a huge part of that to them!

Hey there! I'm unfortunately no longer utilizing Zola. If you'd like to chat message me on my website! mayebetakeaphoto .com I'm a Colorado + Destination Elopement and Intimate Wedding photographer that loves adventure, bold moments, and colorful scenery. I'm all about love & adventure, no matter what that looks like for you. I’d be thrilled to go the extra mile (literally or figuratively) to capture your moments, big and small. I promise to treat your memories as if they were my own.

Not only did she take spectacular photos of our elopement, she was such a HUGE help as well. My now husband and I eloped without any family or friends. Sam was sympathetic to this and helped in so many ways. From something as little as helping me put on my necklace, fixing my shoe when it broke, to something as big as helping me get in my wedding dress. All the while she managed to take the most amazing photographs of our day. When we got our gallery I was blown away. I can't imagine our photos coming out any better. She was receptive to what shots I wanted as well as getting shots we didn't even know we needed! With my husband and I both being POC, I was afraid about how our skin tones would photograph, and I'm telling you, with Sam, that won't be an issue. She used natural lighting and made us glow. She was the most important person for us that day and I'm so glad that I was able to put my trust in her.

What can I say? Jenni is a humble and kind person. She does her best at her job. 100% professional. My husband and I had our first meeting with Jenni and we felt a match with her quickly. Afterwards we had our fall engagement pictures. We had the best pics ever ! everyone told us what beautiful pics we had, and many good comments from everyone. Jenni and her team do their best at what they do, they are very professional. My husband and I felt very comfortable and happy to have been able to do this process with her and her team. I trust on her 100%!!! Their packages are really good. My husband and I decided to do both photography and videography with them and it was the best decision. If you are looking for a photographer or videographer you have the right person here! You will not regret it! My husband and I love our pics and our friends and family told us what a great photographer we had! We can never be thankful enough for everything Jenni did for us on our special day. Jenni BIG thanks for everything you did for us! Laura & Nathan Lehman

I seriously cannot put into words how amazing Nam is. My now husband and I had never done a photoshoot together so I was nervous how we would be. Nam made it so easy to feel comfortable in front of the camera. She’s a gem! Our wedding went flawlessly because of her. She stayed on track and got every requested photo and then some. She fit right in with all of us, cracking jokes and all. She has such a great personality and will go the extra mile for “the shot”. Can’t recommend enough!!

Working in the wedding industry for over 10 years as a bridal makeup artist I specialize in Natural & Soft Glam wedding makeup thus being preferred by brides looking for classy, timeless and natural looks and being awarded many different certificates and accolades throughout the years.

I cannot express enough how incredible my experience was with Cristal as my hair and makeup artist for my wedding. From the very first interaction, she was amazing at communicating and made me feel completely at ease. I gave her free rein on my makeup, with only the guidelines of creating a romantic look that would highlight my features, and she absolutely nailed it. I shared a few pictures of my dress with her, and she not only helped me decide on the perfect hairstyle but also executed it flawlessly. The entire process felt so natural and enjoyable, almost as if we had been friends for a long time. On my wedding day, she truly felt like part of the family, and her presence added so much warmth and joy to the occasion. If you're looking for a talented, kind, and genuinely caring hair and makeup artist, look no further than Cristal. She has a remarkable gift for making you look and feel your absolute best on your special day. Thank you, Cristal, for making my wedding day so magical and memorable!

I’m Annie, a wedding photographer with a passion for capturing love stories in their most authentic and artistic forms. Based in East Texas, I focus on the intimate, unscripted moments that truly reflect your connection—the moments that make your wedding day uniquely yours. I believe your photos should be more than just images; they should be timeless pieces of art that transport you back to the emotions of your day. With a limited number of weddings each year, I ensure every couple receives my full attention. Available wherever your love story takes us.

Awarded Best of Zola
TLDR: I could not have picked a better photographer and I truly believe that Annie would be perfect for absolutely anyone. Her energy is infectious in a way that really brings up your excitement levels but also keeps your anxiety down. My husband is very introverted and was really worried about photos, but she kept him comfortable and in his element in a way I truly don’t believe anyone else would have. As for myself, I felt beautiful and gorgeous the entire time because of her and her partner. For the work she did and the amount of effort she puts into our photos, I believe her prices are incredibly fair. If anything, she’s undercutting herself. I will absolutely be recommending Annie to anyone and everyone. Now for the longer part of the review! We got married on May 30th, 2024 and we were doing our wedding a little differently. Instead of doing private vows or doing our vows at the ceremony, we did our vows at our rehearsal dinner. That is also when we allowed friends and family to come up and say something. The reason we did this route is because my husband is introverted and not a public speaker while I am the complete opposite. He also really wanted to see my walk down the aisle as our first look instead of a private look. Me, on the other hand, wanted at least our family and close friends to witness our vows. So we compromised! On top of it being two separate days, I was very adamant that I wanted two photographers along with wanting to capture the little things, such as my grandparents holding hands or our friends doing silly things at a table. I don’t mind staged photos, but I really wanted more natural focused shots. It was surprisingly difficult to find someone who was able to both days and within our price range. When we stumbled upon Annie, it felt like fate. She was so easy to figure things out with. Instead of an engagement photo session, she was happy to do our rehearsal dinner instead. She was there for any questions I had and the forms she had us fill out were super detailed! It really helped getting our thoughts together and deciding what was most important for our wedding. The day before the wedding, she vibed so well with everyone at the rehearsal dinner. She even got perfect photos of our dogs, who are honestly like our children. The day of the wedding, Annie and her second photographer (who I’ve completely blanked on the name, my fault for taking so long to write a review!) were amazing. Every single one of our friends had compliments for them and just LOVED their energy. Annie kept me calm and collected while the second was fully invested in my husband. I don’t think the wedding would have gone as smoothly without those two. The photos I received back? Better than I could ever dream of. Truly. They got beautiful shots of my grandparents dancing, my dad talking to one of his nephews, his mom talking with his brother. Just candid shots that looked real and natural. I am unbelievably so happy with Annie and the work she put in for us. Photographs are one of the most important things for me at our wedding and she truly blew it out of the park.We thank her for all her work from the bottom of our hearts and will always cherish the memories she gave us.

Mike was our DJ for our wedding and all I can say is WOW. He truly was the absolute best DJ we could ask for. He made the planning super easy with the app and explained exactly how to use it. I had told Mike I’d like lots of mixes and never a full song and he did just that. I even sent some tik toks of mixes I wanted and he did those too. All of our guests had an amazing time and were raving about Mike. I can’t thank you enough for making my wedding a dream come true.

Emily was absolutely amazing and I would recommend her to any bride. She is very organized, detailed, and thinks through every situation that might arise. Emily created an amazing day of timeline and worked with me to make sure it was just how I wanted. She confirmed all of the vendors and worked through any and all last minute details/issues that needed to be taken care of. Emily also helped us set up for the big day and also consolidated and helped clean up at the end of the night. She took amazing pictures and videos for me as well so I could have some memories of the day right away. I can not recommend her enough, she went above and beyond and I was so impressed with her!

The pictures they captured are the best quality! I was so happy with how they turned out! The icing on the cake for me was our video and the Photo Booth! The video made me cry as we were able to relive the best moments from our day! The Photo Booth was a hit and all of our guests really took advantage of it! It was so fun looking back at all their photos during moments I missed. I even have photos from the staff at the venue which was really cute! Thank you so much for Sharyn for everything!

Jimmy is amazing to work with and amazing all around. He was easy to connect with before and on the day of our wedding. When he sent us the first edit of our video I didn't feel confident about how I looked and asked Jimmy if he could remove some scenes. He did not hesitate at all and reassured me that he wanted to make sure I was 100% satisfied and happy. He delivered the edited video and it was perfect. Thank you for everything Jimmy. I am so happy we chose you to be a part of our wedding and our videographer.
