Gage Horne Studios

  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Lake in the Hills, IL for additional fees

My name is Gage Horne, the owner of Gage Horne Studios. I started my company in 2019 (officially) but have been doing video work starting at the age of 11. It started as gaming videos uploaded to YouTube, to shooting professional dance films in college, to starting my own Video Production Service. I found true passion in my work when I realized how important wedding videos are. I had already shot 100+ films before my wedding but realized as a consumer how valuable it is. I love what I do and finding intriguing/interesting ways to display those pieces is what keeps me creative and constantly making my films better.

Awarded Best of Zola
In Summer ‘22 I stood in a wedding for which Steven was the DJ. My then fiance and I were so impressed with him that we took a business card and wanted to hire him for our wedding in Winter ‘23. He took considerable effort not only to understand how we imagined our wedding, but also sharing his expertise during our planning stages. He gave us insightful recommendations and one or two cautionary tales–never to scare us, rather to help educate us. When the day came, Steven made such a lasting impression on our friends and family. The dance floor was electric all night long! A year later people still tell my wife and I how much fun they had at our wedding reception, much of the credit owed to Steven. We recommend Carter Events & Entertainment to any of our friends who will listen!

My fiancé gave me 3 photographers to look at for our wedding. When I saw Tomi, even my picky side was sold. His photography work is amazing and his communication with us before the wedding was great! He even helped us with our timeline and outline for photos. We had a big venue and were worried about sticking to our timeline and getting the photos we wanted. He took the photos so quickly and got so many photos of us! Many of his ideas took us out of our comfort zone, but ended up being some incredible shots, and he made it extremely fun to do them. One of the best parts of our wedding was getting to have a little bit of Tomi’s time!

I could not more highly recommend Kristen! Kristen was one of the very first vendors that I booked for my August 2024 wedding and I could not be more happy in that decision. Kristen's style is timeless and true to color. She focuses on capturing the day as it happens rather than focusing only on super posed shots- which I love! Kristen's communication is clear, prompt, and honest- I so appreciated her insight through the wedding planning process and especially in developing the timeline. We also received far more sneak peeks than we expected and I'm still shocked with how quickly we received our full gallery! Kristen, we are so happy you were there to capture our day!

My name is Amanda Montgomery and I am Arrae Photography based out of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The name Arrae (pronounced [uh-rey]) came from my first initial and my middle name, Rae, added an extra r and made a new word. I wanted something unique that was also me, the idea came to mind one day and it just fit. Being a photographer is all I've ever wanted to do with my life. When I was 12 I saved up my babysitting money to buy my first 'big time' camera. I formed Arrae Photography in 2003 as a part-time venture while I worked at local photo labs, went full time in 2008.

One of the best wedding decisions we made was booking Arie's photography services. Arie's energy, professionalism, and eye for detail are truly unmatched! Staying in constant communication with us from the day we booked, the regular check-ins were extremely helpful and reassuring in the chaos of wedding planning. By the time we met in person it felt like we had known Arie for years. On our wedding day she brought a calm and upbeat energy which made her a joy to have in the bridal and groom suites while we prepped for the ceremony. During our very lively reception Arie seemed to be everywhere at once, capturing every detail we asked for and so many more. The way Arie seamlessly moved throughout the events prompted our guests to ask if she worked for the venue! She came extremely prepared, was extremely professional, and it showed. Arie is truly an artist who not only took and produced beautiful photos, but managed to capture our vibe. We are so grateful to have found Arie and will DEFINITELY be booking services for our future events!

I am an avid reader. It was important to me for my wedding day (the experience, the photos, and the video) to feel like it was a fantasy novel brought to life. And that is exactly what this video portrays. I could not be happier. My wedding video was beautiful and I feel like they really captured the feelings and emotion of the day. My video was very different from others in the best way possible. The cinematography was incredible. Everyone who has viewed our wedding video tells me it looks like a movie. This video is something I will cherish for the rest of my days. I cannot stop watching it. The magical feeling that is displayed throughout our film is everything I dreamed for. If you are specific in what you want your film to look like, Fine Arts Weddings will nail it for you. They fit so much in to such timely films. I married my high school sweetheart of 11 years. The love we have was shown beautifully in such a romantic and fantastical way. You will not regret booking with them!!

Hi! I'm Sarah. Congratulations on taking the next step in your wedding planning! Choosing to work with me earns you more than just a photographer; you get a hype-girl, a dress fluffer, a confidant and a new best friend. Since we are now future besties, here's what you should know about me: My love for portraiture stems from the joy it brings me to make others feel beautiful. Few things make me feel as giddy as photographing weddings, engagements & proposals, and I can't wait to capture the next stage of your love story. My strengths lie in natural lighting, illuminating colors, and catching the candid moments that make you, you.

Awarded Best of Zola
There is not enough good things we can say about Sarah! From day 1, she had great communication before the proposal while deciding the perfect location and how we would meet up with her. She executed flawlessly and I never saw her until the ring was on my finger even though she followed us for a bit before the big moment. She made us feel so comfortable for the photoshoot after and was willing to go to a few different spots with us all while carrying all of our stuff so it wouldn’t be in our pockets for the pictures. We received the sneak peeks the next day and were blown away with how well they turned out, she nailed it!! She got the big “I do” moment which was most important and then captured so many other sweet moments right before and after that I will forever be so grateful we can relive because of her photos. The best thing about her is that you can feel the joy coming out of the screen when you look through her galleries. So many people have raved over how well our engagement photos turned out. Everyone should book Sarah, she is so great at what she does!!

I am a photographer and artist from the Pacific Northwest with Costa Rican and Scottish roots. My favorite things are dinosaurs, exploring new cities, board games, soccer, National Parks, and whiskey. I have been fortunate to photograph 200+ weddings in my PNW home, to ruins in Scotland, cityscapes in Vietnam, to the beaches of Maui, and beyond! I live in Portland, Oregon with my partner, two dogs, and four cats | 🏳️‍🌈🦖⛰️✈️📸⚽🫶🏼🌈🌲🦕🏝 Fun Fact: I was born on Leap Year Day so I turn 9 this year 🥳!

Awarded Best of Zola
I have used many photographers in the past but none came close to the level of expertise that Leah possesses. Over the years, I've done business headshots with her, family photos, and most recently my wedding. Since I have used Leah's services for other things before, I knew what to expect as far as photo-quality goes; the real testimonial comes from how she handled the wedding. Shooting a wedding in another country with a chaotic family is no easy task, even I wouldn't wish it upon myself, but Leah truly knocked it out of the park: she checked in before the event day to go over the schedule, showed up early, got all of the extra shots that I requested, directed people, and just really took charge of the experience. Having her as my wedding photographer was literally one of the only non-stressful decisions I made for that event lol. The photos turned out beautifully, I really can't imagine having anyone else capture one of the most important events of my life. I recommend her wholeheartedly!!

Hey there! Since you are trusting me to capture these special moments in your life, I figured you should probably know a bit about me, right? I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

We searched for a photographer for our Lake Geneva wedding but it was a bit difficult as we both live in Chicago. Luckily, I had read some really great reviews about Ari Rosenthal Photographers and was thrilled when I talked with Ari. He was helpful and professional, had our date available and their price was perfect. Mark, one of the photographers and the one who we chose, was amazing to work with on our special day. We have had so many family and friends just love the photos when we shared them! Mark's professional experience put us at ease from the moment he arrived and the communication was great from the first phone call. We feel so fortunate to have chosen Mark to be our photographer as his ability in working with all of us, was so calming and fun, plus our pictures turned out so awesome!

I can’t say enough good things about Tyson. He communicated with us so clearly, was so careful and caring with our day. We are extremely passionate about music and he took that to heart and curated the party vibe accordingly. Genuinely everyone was on the dance floor the entire night. He took a strange request from me for the father daughter dance and executed it exceptionally, he learned the song I wanted to walk the aisle to on guitar beautifully, and the photobooth was a HUGE hit. I had multiple people ask me if Tyson knew us personally because the music was perfectly synced to who we are. We spoke on the phone for over an our telling him what we like and don’t like and he really worked with it.

What if your photos actually looked and felt like you? Picture yourself 10 years from now on your wedding anniversary looking back at your wedding album with tears welling up in your eyes as you relive your day. Your wedding should not feel like a performance. Let go of boring wedding traditions, think outside of the box and create something unique that has never been done before. Whatever the perfect day looks like for you, why shouldn’t that be your wedding day? I am more than your wedding photographer, I am your guide, biggest fan, and the curator of your love story, I will also be the one tearing up from behind my lens.

Danielle went above and beyond to make sure that my husband and I had the perfect wedding day. Within minutes of our first video call with Danielle, we were sure that she was the perfect fit for our special day. She has such a personal touch about her that really stood out to us immediately - she was so interested in getting to know us as a couple and as individuals. Continually throughout our wedding planning process, Danielle would check in with us to answer any questions we had, offer suggestions and advice when needed and discuss our visions for our wedding day. She brought all our wedding day visions to life through her photography and beyond that, she brought a calming, fun-loving and positive energy. She captured so many special memories on our wedding day - the raw emotion, the candid moments, the beautiful landscapes, the laughs and everything in between. By the end of the day, my husband and I, and our guests, felt like Danielle was apart of the family. When we got our sneak peak photos back, it was impossible for us to choose favorites because every photo is just incredible. I cannot say enough good things about Danielle. She is incredibly talented at what she does and she is such a kind and caring person. She exceeded our expectations in SO many ways and we are so thankful that we chose her to be apart of our wedding day.

She was the most calming presence on our wedding day and managed to capture so many absolutely stunning candid moments like a fly on the wall, but also delivered portraits that are true works of art. She even got us our photos way ahead of when we expected them! I could go on forever, she's great and I'm convinced there's nothing she can't do!

Hearing her play Can’t Help Falling In Love as I walked down the aisle with my dad is something I’ll never forget! She has an extensive list of music she can play that she provided beforehand—classics, musical songs, modern songs, etc. We had a couple of songs we wanted played that weren’t on her list and she happily played those for us too which was SO nice! I highly recommend booking Anna to elevate your wedding or event! Thank you Anna!!

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.

  • Photographer

  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves Lake in the Hills, IL for additional fees

Gabbie Burseth grew up documenting everything and saving mementos in empty Christmas boxes. After studying at the Grady School of Journalism at the University of Georgia, she discovered an affinity for weddings and their accompanying treasures. Her philosophy as a wedding photographer is to observe with as little interference as possible — no faking it, no do-overs, no “for the camera”. Her biggest desire is for couples to be present at their wedding, not stuck in a photoshoot. Her work is punctuated by rich and vibrant color, the timeless quality of analog film, and a sense of humor found in fleeting moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
Gabbie made our elopement photo session feel so natural. She knew just what to say to get us in comfortable positions and made it easy to capture our precious moments. The photos turned out beautiful, sharp, and super high quality! I definitely recommend Gabbie for any size wedding.

Hi there! I’m Emma CotéEwers, your East Coast & Destination Wedding and Lifestyle Photographer! My work is a seamless blend of traditional heirloom portraiture, lively artistic shots, and a little ​photojournalism if the day calls for it. With a true-to-color, film-inspired approach, I strive to craft visuals that capture love, ​laughter, and those beautifully authentic moments that weave together the story of your ​wedding! I feel like these should include fun ​facts? Patsy Cline’s Walkin’ After Midnight is my favorite song and I am currently on my 8th ​nostalgic binge of Gilmore Girls (which might just be fueling my banter lately).

We had the pleasure of working with Emma for our engagement photos, my bridal portraits, bridal shower and our rehearsal dinner. We couldn't be happier with the results. From the very beginning, Emma was incredibly professional, attentive, and truly passionate about capturing the essence of our love story. For our engagement session, she made us feel completely at ease and guided us with such a gentle touch, making the experience fun and natural. The photos turned out absolutely stunning, capturing the joy, excitement, and deep connection we share. When it came time for my bridal portraits, Emma exceeded all expectations. She understood how important these photos were to me, especially since I was wearing my late grandmother’s ring, which holds immense sentimental value. Emma managed to capture not only the beauty of the dress and the setting but also the emotions and memories tied to this moment. She has an incredible eye for detail and lighting, and the photos are a perfect blend of candid and posed shots that reflect our personalities and relationship beautifully. The final images are more than just pictures; they are timeless keepsakes that we will cherish forever. If you're looking for a photographer who is talented, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in telling your story through photos, look no further than Emma. We can't recommend her enough! Thank you, Emma, for capturing these special moments that we'll treasure for a lifetime!

Local to Colorado & native to Indiana I'm a photographer dedicated to helping couples bring their wedding vision to life. I believe that your love story is anything but boring, and your photos should reflect that. With 8 years of experience, I’ve captured clients through fun prompts and welcoming energy. I’m not gonna lie I’m a strong believer in truly connecting with my client. Yes I send ‘<3’ in my emails. Yes I’d love to fan girl over your wedding deets with you! Mimosas? Coffee? I’m down

My fiancé and I had been doing all this research to find a photographer and our wedding was fast approaching. It was March and our wedding is in July. We came across Sara, found out that she would be moving to Colorado and was actually in Colorado until Friday morning (it was Wednesday night). We have a wonderful phone call just getting to know her and her business and decided to book her the next day. She worked promptly to make time to shoot our engagement photos even though it was her boyfriend’s mom’s birthday. We just got the photos the other day and they are stunning. They capture our hearts, emotion, and beauty! So glad that we booked Sara for our wedding day! We know her photography will be amazing!! She is fun and easy to work with, obviously experienced, and just personable and makes the whole experience more enjoyable!

HOME STATES: California & Massachusetts/New England Hey! Justina here. You'll probably find me at your local thrift shop with my iced coffee in the dead of winter listening to gospel or rnb music in my ear while shopping for records and broken cameras. When i find spare time i play apex legends or attend creative events. my guilty pleasure is reality tv and unsolved crime documentaries.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Justina as our wedding photographer, and she exceeded all of our expectations! Just looking at her work, we knew she was the one. From our first meeting, it was clear that Justina possesses incredible talent and a true passion for her craft. Her ability to capture the essence of every moment is unmatched. Throughout the planning process, Justina was exceptional in her communication. She took the time to understand our vision, preferences, and any specific shots we wanted. Her responsiveness and professionalism made us feel confident and relaxed, knowing we were in great hands. On our wedding day, Justina went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Her attention to detail and creative approach were evident in every shot. She managed to capture not just the big moments but also the candid, heartfelt interactions that made our day so special (and were a huge priority to us). Her warm and friendly demeanor made it easy for us and our guests to feel comfortable in front of the camera. When we received the final photos, we were blown away by the quality and artistry. Each image was a masterpiece, reflecting the joy, love, and excitement of our celebration - my husband and I both got emotional going through them together. I truly never expected to see such joy captured in every moment of our day, and I am so grateful. Justina has a remarkable ability to tell a story through her lens, and we will cherish these memories forever. How lucky are we to have found her! If you're looking for a photographer who is not only incredibly talented but also genuinely cares about making your day unforgettable, Justina is the one. We cannot recommend her highly enough!

Danny was the best to work with, from start to finish. When we first spoke to Danny on the phone, he was so friendly and easy to talk to. On the day of our wedding, it was the same. He genuinely had the most amazing vibe to him and made everyone feel so unbelievably comfortable - our families, bridal party, guests, and us. It honestly felt great having him around. Our parents loved him and made that very clear to us, which we completely understood, as we felt the same. He was so kind and friendly to everyone and our videos were beautiful and everything we wanted them to be. If we could go back, there is no doubt that we would choose him all over again. Thank you so much for being part of and capturing one of the most special days ever!
