Heather gave us a personalized and affordable wedding photography package. She was helpful, timely, and supportive during our crazy wedding day. So much went wrong, but our photographers and flowers were some of the highlights that made our day amazing. The additional creative touch Heather brought went above and beyond our expectations. She brought confetti into the desert to highlight some of our post-first look photos and she brought champagne for a champagne pop with our bridal party. These little details made the experience all the more enjoyable. She also returned the photos quite fast! We will definitely recommend Heather for anyone getting married in the future.

Hey it's me Alexis! I am a Traverse City based wedding photographer! I have had the honor of photographing beautiful weddings all around Michigan the past 4 years. Having traveled to Arizona, Tennessee, Nebraska, Florida, South Carolina, California, and more, I am open and ready to travel abroad for your wedding as well!

Alexis Brianne Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. Their communication style was easily understandable, thorough, and very organized, which helped put our minds at ease throughout the wedding planning process. Alexis' photos and editing skills are truly amazing - there were so many beautiful pictures to choose from, it was almost overwhelming. Her attention to detail and ability to freeze special moments in time is just incredible. Before the wedding, Alexis was in constant contact with us, and on the day of, her calm presence helped reassure my wife when her anxiety started to get the best of her. When I needed to make a last-minute change, Alexis was incredibly reassuring and helped me work through it. We really appreciated the time she spent with us going over specific shots we wanted, as well as her suggestions for other unique angles and perspectives. Compared to some of our friends who paid almost 15,000 for their wedding photography, Alexis' work and value is unmatched. In fact, I even suggested she consider raising her prices (after our wedding, of course!). Overall, Alexis Brianne Photography exceeded our expectations in every way and we couldn't be happier with the results.

Hi! I'm Hannah, your So Cal (but traveling) elopement and intimate wedding photographer! I'm so glad you're here. My photography style is a documentary/natural photographer. This means I'm more about documenting your moments and helping you create genuine smiles/moments in photos, opposed to just posing you, i want you to dance and have fun, snuggle into your partner and get those intimate moments. (I'll of course help you figure out what to do with your hands, because lets me honest, even I don't know what to do with my hands in photos. Haha) I love traveling, I love adventure, and I love making friends out of my clients.

Hannah was a wonderful choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, she was quick to respond, pleasant, and inviting in her communication. Her work was above and beyond our expectations - the photos are absolutely beautiful and showcase her skillful eye. She catered to what we wanted, picking out amazing photo spots in various stunning locations. Hannah was so open to our ideas and prioritized our wants and needs throughout the entire process. She captured all the shots we requested, and even some we didn't think of, creating a truly beautiful set of memories from our special day. We are thrilled with the results and highly recommend Hannah Madison Photography.

From the moment we first connected, we knew it was a perfect fit. Their passion for their craft was infectious, and their genuine interest in our vision was heartwarming.

They blended seamlessly into the background, yet somehow managed to be in the perfect position for every precious shot. But it wasn't just their technical skill that blew us away. It was their genuine care and attention to detail. They anticipated our needs before we even knew them. They weren't just vendors; they felt like friends, there to support us and celebrate with us every step of the way. And the results? They were nothing short of breathtaking. The photos are exquisite - vibrant and artistic, capturing every emotion and detail with stunning clarity. They tell the story of our day in a way that words never could, making us relive the magic every time we look at them. The video? It's a masterpiece.

We've already watched it countless times, and each time, it feels like we're back there, living the dream all over again. Asti and Amir, you didn't just capture our wedding; you captured our souls.

Armando is an absolutely amazing photographer which we already knew after our engagement photo shoot that was included in our wedding photo package. However, once we received our wedding photos, we were absolutely blown away! Not only did he take absolutely breathtaking portraits and capture big moments throughout the day, but he caught a lot of sweet little moments of our guests. After sharing the gallery with some of our family and friends, many of them commented “ I can’t believe your photographer caught this moment of my sons, dad, mom, etc”. We are completely able to re-live our day with his photos. I don’t even understand how he was able to do it, but he also put together an 11 minute highlight video capturing our vows, big moments and many more little moments throughout the day! I was balling while watching it! Also, really important to us was Armando was extremely responsive throughout the entire wedding planning process and even came to our 30 days out venue walk through to make sure we were on the same page. Armando is an extremely talented photographer and you’d be lucky to book him for your wedding day!

The reasons people choose us over our competitors are: 1) Our communication is the best in the industry 2) No hidden fees, no travel rates(if booked before 2025), the quote you receive is the total amount. 3) We offer a very flexible payment plan, where you choose the dates you wish to pay on! We serve clients across California and throughout the entire U.S. 😁

Honestly Jose saved our lives! Previously to hiring him and his team, my wife and I had gotten scammed by a photographer. I was scared and of course super stressed about finding a new photographer I could trust and I could rely on. From the beginning the communication with Jose was amazing and this is so important with any wedding vendor. He captured our wedding so beautifully and that’s all we really want when hiring a wedding photographer. He even sent sneak peeks like two days after the wedding! And our pictures were ready so fast! I highly recommend New Ending Productions for your wedding and all your photography needs.

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.

We originally hired another photographer, but she was no longer available for our wedding, but she helped us find Lori. I am so grateful for this! Lori was amazing for both our Engagement Session and Wedding! She did an amazing job with the photos and lighting, and carried out our vision. Communication was great, and she delivered the photos in a timely matter. The second photographer was amazing as well! I will definitely book Lori again for future photo sessions.

At Taylor Made Photography, we don't just capture images—we create unforgettable experiences. Based in the vibrant heart of Las Vegas, our passion is turning your special moments into timeless stories. Whether it's an adventurous elopement in the Valley of Fire, a laid-back wedding at the Little White Chapel, or an intimate engagement session in the Downtown Las Vegas Arts District, we’re here to make every moment count.

Where do we begin? From the very first contact made to Heather she was beyond helpful! We had already decided from viewing her socials that we loved her work. And after a transatlantic video call to discuss details and vision we knew she was who we wanted to capture our day! We immediately clicked, and genuinely felt we were being heard from the off. Heather was always on hand with recommendations or to answer questions and queries. She genuinely made our day so special and captured us as a couple perfectly. Our only problem is that we now have so many amazing photos that we cant choose our favourites, which is an ok problem to have. :)

Hey I’m Sierra! You are here for a REASON. I am a Colorado/California based natural light photographer, specializing in big weddings + intimate elopements. Capturing love while getting to tell your remarkable, unique story is the best most special honor. Believe me it is more than just a job to me it is how I am choosing to spend the BEST years of my life and I want to spend them with you! Let’s have fun, let’s be vulnerable, let’s have the best time of our lives while you run around with your hearts on your sleeves. Why? Because we only get to tell this story once so let’s make it the best one ever written.

Our wedding was our third time working with Sierra and Jullian (Youphoria Films), and yet again, they exceeded our expectations. I used Sierra for my wedding gift Boudoir photos, we used her for our Elopement event (35 people) and we just used them for our Black Tie Wedding (80 people). They are such a supported and enthusiastic team, while also being extremely calm and composed the entire time. We never once worried about their performance as they are always professional, communicative, and just overall fantastic. We have loved our photos and videos, and will always recommend them to our friends and family! Get yourself a crew who feels like friends, because that is what they do and it makes the world of a difference!

I grew up with a life saturated in creativity. To put it simply: I love my job. My style tends to be joyful, raw, romantic, & bold. I love a deep splash of color in a palette of neutrals and natural light. I love traveling, ethnic food, & ice cream! Getting married myself helped me to realize the importance of wedding photography more than I could’ve imagined. I am also all about printing photos. I’ve shot over 75 weddings, and continue to in Las Vegas, NV, MN, ND, and beyond. I would love to serve you as a part of my journey. All I want is to build a relationship with you, be your third wheel, & send you off with memories.

I am a Wedding Hairstylist & Makeup Artist. I had the pleasure of working with Hannah and her hubby when we had a Bride hire both of us for their Yosemite Elopement! Hannah was super kind, professional and very easy to work with. Her energy and personality was perfect for the 3am Sunrise session our Bride booked! The photos were SO awesome, seriously still some of my top favorites ever taken in Yosemite. I especially loved that she was able to catch some starry sky photos and encouraged The Bride / Groom to show off their personality with their Star wars accessories!

We are a husband and wife team based in Portland, Or and travel worldwide (we love travel) to capture our couples stories, and capturing the best imagery we can!. We specialize in creative moment driven wedding & lifestyle photography. We are committed to telling our couples stories and supporting them in ways that allow them to be free of stress and to be in the moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jos and Tree came highly recommended to us and, having worked with them, we now know why! A lot of people take wedding photos. Among them are a handful of folks who are also reliable, professional, and pleasant to work with. And within that smaller group, is an even smaller group of photographers who have real artistic vision matched with technical skill. Jos & Tree are, without a doubt, near the top of that select group. The images they produced of our wedding run the gamut from traditional wedding photos to absolute masterpieces of lighting, composition, and technical execution. Here's an example: as the day was wrapping up, and a bit *after* Jos and Tree's deadline for leaving had passed, they quickly posed my wife and I in front of a tree in the park; Jos had a vision for an image he wanted to capture in the fading light... and the resulting image proved absolutely magnificent; it is my favorite photo of the day, and among the top photographs I have seen anyone create, anywhere. On top of the artistic talent and skill, Jos & Tree were an absolute pleasure to work with; responsive, pleasant, personable, and fun. They were always on time, and ready to work... and work they did!! The amount of effort and energy they put into capturing lots of beautiful and creative images cannot be overstated. And then, they edited them beautifully, and have been working with us to select images to print and put in a book. The quality of their artistic consultation has been phenomenal. My wife and I have seen a lot of wedding photos that people proudly post online on sites like reddit. I can confidently say that I've yet to see more interesting and beautiful wedding photos than the ones I've seen from Jos and Tree. It's a pleasure to give these two lovely people our highest recommendation.

Although Tori lives on the east coast, her art & lifestyle is largely inspired by the west coast. Tori grew up just outside Los Angeles and her art reflects the airy, relaxed and purposeful atmosphere that exists in the Golden State. The Tori Parker team intends for their photos to reflect a similar air: relaxed but with a powerful undertone of golden hour hues and genuine joy. When Tori isn't taking photos or managing her amazing team of associate photoghers, she enjoys intentional time with Jesus, watching New Girl with her husband, being outdoors with her dogs, and eating the spiciest thing on the menu.

We really enjoyed working with Tori, Claire, and Brooke! Tori coordinated our photographers and edited our photos, Claire was our photographer for our engagement photos and wedding day, and Brooke was our second shooter for our wedding. The editing of our photos was done beautifully and working with Tori regarding the plan for our wedding made us very comfortable. Additionally, she got photos back to us very quickly! Claire was great to work with, she made us feel very comfortable during shoots and did a great job posing two people who are very uncomfortable in photos! The wedding party and family photos were also lovely and went very smoothly. They were very easy to work with and captured the event without distracting from it at all which was awesome.

On your wedding day, my focus is on documenting your authentic selves, from those emotional first looks to cozy moments during golden hour. And I’m all about the pops of color!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Kiersten for my wedding, and I can't recommend her enough. From the moment we met, her professionalism and passion for photography were evident. She took the time to understand our vision and was super easy to communicate with throughout the planning process. On the big day, Kiersten was a true pro—capturing all the special moments without being intrusive. She managed to blend into the background while still getting all the key shots we wanted. The candid shots really stood out. The final photos blew us away. The quality and creativity were top-notch, and we received countless compliments from our friends and family.

Timeless, classic photos that never go out of style or off trend.

I could go on about her but I'll try to be brief - Kyrsten was absolutely incredible at making me and my now-husband feel comfortable in our own skin. We talked on the phone when I first reached out and immediately hit it off, which was easy because she is sassy and says it like it is which I absolutely love. She took our engagement photos on the hottest day of the summer and we had a blast even with sweat dripping down our backs. She had us laughing the whole time and we even wound up in a fountain! I did bridal portraits with her a month before my wedding and it gave me so much peace of mind to know what to expect for the wedding day and to see how everything photographed. At our wedding, Kyrsten made quick work of getting through our large families while keeping the peace amid the chaos. We are obsessed with our engagement photos and my bridal portraits and are anxiously awaiting our wedding photos! I can not recommend Kyrsten enough - but make sure you book her early, she books up fast! Her personality is infectious and her tips and tricks for creating natural smiles and laughter are the funniest!

This is my 2nd time being married and I hated my wedding photos from my first wedding so my wedding photos were a top priority for my wedding. I was referred to Jennifer and from our first communication I just felt like she was the way to go - I trusted my gut and I was not disappointed. While I haven't received all of my final photos I have gotten a large teaser album and I'm obsessed with it all. She was incredible to talk with during the planning process and was a dream on the wedding day. She killed the checklist and sticking to the timeline!
