I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.

From the moment we first reached out to Evoke Photography & Video, their communication was great. The photographer, Sarah, got everything done that needed to be done to capture our special day. When we received the final photos, we were so amazed at the quality and beauty of her work. The pictures were incredible, especially the family portraits and the stunning sunset shots. We were so excited to show everyone, and they all loved the photos just as much as we did. The sunset in the background made for such beautiful, warm lighting.

I have thoroughly enjoyed working with this photo and video team! I began working with the wedding coordinator, Nora, who was very informative and helpful throughout the process! My only concern was the fact that I was not able to know who my photo and video team was before a couple weeks before my wedding! As a wedding planner, I like to plan things ahead of time and make sure everybody is on the same page without questions or issues so that the day moves smoothly! Thankfully, once I received my photo & video team’s information, they were so eager to help and learn about my wedding day! Sarah, Brian, and Bobbie were the dream team! They got everything that I could’ve wanted captured on my wedding day and more! They went above and beyond to make sure that my wishes were granted, and the lighting was perfect and everything! They were really easy to work with and made sure to get the job done quickly so that we were able to thoroughly enjoy our day! We received our photos from our wedding day a few weeks ago, and we are absolutely in love with all of them! I love the organization that they put the photos in as well as adding additional photos such as candids and other photos that were captured throughout the day! When we received the wedding videos, it was like we were reliving the day all over again! So amazing to be able to rewatch the ceremony, speeches, and dances with my loved ones and reminisce! 1000% recommend!

Tomi Photopositive

Denver, CO
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,100

Hello, I'm Tomi, a Wedding Photographer with over 500+ weddings under my belt. I live in Broomfield, Colorado with my amazing wife and my dog Teddy. I capture authentic, creative and emotionally driven wedding moments. My photography style has a mixture of unique candid photos combined with some traditionally posed shots, all edited with the more warm and true-to-life color editing style.

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked Tomi Photopositive for our October 2024 wedding in Genesee Park, Colorado, and got exactly what all of his other perfect reviews rave about; Relentless compassion and positivity, regular and professional communication, timeliness in every regard, and of course an amazing collection of photos we get to cherish for the rest of our lives. We struggled to find an affordable photographer for our simple and small wedding. Some quotes came in exorbitantly high. One even wanted us to sign a contract before we could even schedule a virtual meet & greet to see if we'd all vibe. We found Tomi on Wedding wire, and we loved his portfolio (and his pricing almost seemed too good to be true based on his work), so we reached out. We set up a zoom call, and it was clear right away that Tomi loves what he does, and that he cares about his clients. This initial meeting was everything a nervous couple could hope for, it silenced much of the fear of booking someone we knew very little about. Though not included in the wedding photography package, we booked an engagement session with Tomi. I am so glad we did! It was worth every penny! Aside from great photos themselves, it gave us a good feel for how he works ahead of the wedding. Plus, it was fun, and we got some great shots! Tomi will go out of his way for his clients. One example is that he had never been to our venue (Chief Hosa Lodge - if you're looking for a wedding of 35-65 guests) before, so he went to the venue before the wedding to get a feel for all the best spots. He did this on his own time, and did not charge us extra for it. While we had originally hoped for a sunny day and sunset photos overlooking the mountains, we got snow and fog. Tomi seized the opportunity and turned the "disappointing" weather into one of the more memorable aspects of our day. For any couple who is considering not using a photographer, we strongly caution against it. we originally wanted to go that route or was looking for someone cheap (1000). However, finding Tomi was a blessing from God, and his pricing is more than worth it! His photos are eons better than anything you could hope for from an amateur photographer or cell phone grab. And seeing the final polished photos a couple months after the fact is like getting to experience your special day all over again. If you're still reading this, stop and book him. You will not be disappointed.

Hi, I'm Candace and I have a thing for weddings! I didn't start as a wedding photographer, I actually started as a BIRTH photographer surprisingly! I was addicted to capturing real and raw moments for families to have and relive over and over. I actually was nervous for weddings, which is why I didn't start doing them. One thing led to another and as people started asking me if I WOULD shoot their wedding, I decided to give it a try. Fast-forward to dozens and dozens of weddings later and I am obsessed!! I am a full fledged wedding photographer and I LOVE capturing every single moment of your day. The addiction is real!!

Hey there! My name is Marilyn. I live in New York City with my sweet partner, and our orange cat Maple. I’m an introverted, soft-hearted mush with an insatiable need to document the beauty in life. Practicing self-portraits in middle school eventually led me to pursue my photography degree from New York University, and I have been joyfully creating photos of wedding days ever since. To me, weddings are a magical display of the human spirit. It’s my biggest honor and joy to create imagery that captures that human magic - especially in a way that breaks the boundaries of historically gendered traditions.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Marilyn was such a treat. She’s so warm, and communicating with her is a breeze. Both my husband and I were more interested in capturing the moments of our wedding day rather than spending loads of time on staged family portraits. Marilyn and her assistant Emma were great at getting the shots your grandparents will want while also capturing the essence of your night. She asked great questions, made sure we felt comfortable at every turn, and fully captured the essence of my (camera-shy) husband. Don’t hesitate to work with her!!

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
We’ve been lucky to know and work with Randall for a few years. When we finally decided to make things “official” we knew we wanted someone that does great work, that we trust, and would make us feel comfortable. We wanted our day to feel like a relaxed family event and Randall helped with that and so much more. He suggested possible locations that would meet our dream event and times to maximize the best lighting for the area. Once we settled on the location and date, he maintained excellent communication in preparation to the event to properly flesh out the day’s timetable, day of logistics, and post. On the day of our wedding he expertly directed us and our families, using the natural lighting to capture the perfect shots. We would have been lost without him, especially since no one knew how to assist with bustling my dress. During our dinner reception he seamlessly directed restaurant staff to assist in transitioning between meals/dessert/toast for more amazing shots. After the wedding he kept us updated on next steps for our pictures. Randall is truly a gem and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone special to capture their day.

Our deposit is 20% down to book and the remaining balance can be broken down into 3-4 increments.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Reflections Media Pennsylvania as our wedding photographer and were very happy with their services. They were great at communication - thoroughly documenting details over email and phone calls leading up to the big day. On the wedding day itself, they jumped right in to capture candid moments as they happened. For example, they photographed all of our guests arriving at the cocktail hour with us. The photos turned out beautifully, really capturing the spirit of our wedding at a fair price. My only minor critique would be that it was hard to pose for some of the more formal shots because the photographer didn't do a countdown before snapping the pic. And unfortunately due to the event timing, we were not able to take as much photos with the family/bridal party as we had wanted in our consultation. I would recommend couples to keep in mind specific shots during the wedding; the wedding day was extremely hectic for us but it would have been nice to have the photographer (us as well) remember our consultation on what shots we were important for us for them to photograph. But overall, I'd recommend Reflections Media to other couples looking to preserve memories of their special day.

When Joe and I were looking for our wedding photographer, we wanted someone whose photography used natural light and whose subjects seemed at ease. We also wanted someone who would make sure our awkward selves felt comfortable in front of the camera. Gabriella checked all of our boxes. From our first email communication, Gabriella exuded joy and kindness. These traits matched the essence of her photos as well. She was extremely flexible when our schedules forced us to change our wedding date early on. She went above and beyond to attend an open house at our venue to meet us in person and to gain a sense of where our reception would be. When it came time for our engagement photos, Gabriella immediately put Joe and I at ease in front of the camera by playing great music and incorporating some amazing prompts that resulted in amazing photos. Joe and I cannot recommend Gabriella enough! Not only is she incredibly professional, but she is extremely talented in her vision for photos and getting her couples to ignore the camera and be their authentic selves. We are overjoyed with the final results of our wedding photos and we are so grateful we chose Gabriella to be our photographer!

The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
