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!!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Lovejoy, IL for additional fees

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 two dogs and three cats | 🏳️‍🌈🦖⛰️✈️📸⚽🫶🏼🌈🌲🦕🏝 Fun Fact: I was born on Leap Year Day so I'm 9 years old 🥳!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Diana Marie Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding day. From the very beginning, Diana's communication style was open, professional, and timely - she was always checking in to make sure our day was going as we had imagined. The quality of her work is truly exceptional, with a clean, timeless, and emotional style that captured all the special moments beautifully. Diana knows the importance behind wedding photos - they aren't just a social media dump, but rather the memories we'll cherish for years to come. She reminded us to take in the little things, and that thoughtfulness really shines through in the final product. We couldn't recommend Diana Marie Photography enough for any couple looking for a talented, dedicated photographer to document their big day.

HLS Photography GA

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves Lovejoy, IL for additional fees

Intimate wedding photographer originally from the coast of VA, but now based in the North Georgia Mountains & love finding new adventures while exploring the outdoors. When I am not hidden behind my camera, you can find me hiking up a new mountain with my fur babies, eating tacos, or spending quality time with my little family. I started out capturing families, then realized that my heart is completely drawn to love & the bond that two people share. I describe my photography as bold, intimate & sincere. I enjoy capturing the small, yet sometimes unseen gestures & reactions as well as the pure romance between two people on their wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we first spoke with Kendra, we knew she was the perfect photographer for our wedding day. Her easygoing personality immediately put us at ease, and it was clear she truly listened to our vision. Neither of us feels particularly comfortable in front of a camera, but Kendra guided us effortlessly, balancing gentle coaching with allowing us to simply be ourselves. On the day of our backyard wedding, her professionalism and adaptable, go-with-the-flow approach made everything feel seamless. She captured every detail—from the small personal touches to the candid, heartfelt moments—so beautifully that each photo takes us right back to that joyful day. Even months later, our guests are still raving about how wonderful Kendra was, and it's easy to see why. Her stunning, detailed work speaks for itself, and we are forever grateful to have these memories preserved so perfectly.

Michelle is your "coulda-been-a-bridesmaid" Photographer. Your wedding photographer should feel like having your bestie in your by your side- fun, tissues at ready, helps run the show smoothly and KNOWS your priorities. With almost 15 years as a Memphis wedding photographer, I work on the front end to get to know my couples so that my work can authentically capture the actions we take to show our care and love for each other. I cherish all forms of human connection (LBGTQ+), and believe that our most precious memories deserve to be preserved in a way that is personable and true to us.

Awarded Best of Zola
Can we talk about Michelle? Because she’s hands down the best photographer I have ever worked with and if you don’t hire her, you will regret it. She shot our November 2022 wedding, and she is my second best decision, after saying yes to my husband. The whole day with her was relaxed and like having a good friend as our photographer. She’s funny and professional but more than willing to protect special moments for the couple. We were running almost an hour behind and by the time we got to the church, Michelle had us 5 minutes ahead of schedule with all the shots we wanted checked off the list she spent two hours making with us prior to the wedding day. She’s also ridiculously organized and it made my anxious heart flutter. Seriously, I’ve never met someone so on top of schedules and timelines. She’s also timely about responding to emails and setting up calls. Her second shooter, who organized the groomsmen and grooms, was equally on top of things, personable easy going, easy to talk to, and is proof Michelle chooses quality people to work with her. To summarize, my new husband and I cannot recommend Michelle enough as both a wonderful person and talented photographer. We can’t wait to get all of our photos back! You won’t regret choosing her to work with you.

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.

Hello, future clients! I am honored that you are viewing my passion and interested in who I am! I always aim to photograph people in the most beautiful spots around NWA! I have loved all forms of art and had a passion for it, since I was a child! I bought my first camera (small red Kodak) when I was 11, and I have been photographing anything and everything ever since! I have since upgraded my camera equipment, if you can't tell, and I would love the chance to photograph you and everyone you know and love! I can't wait to be a part of and capture your most special moments!

Ohmygoodness! I loved the pictures from our engagement photo shoot! Literally obsessed with the pictures of my fiancé and I. Danielle has been great to work with! Very flexible! We were running late to the photo shoot by a bit, we weren’t familiar with the area. Danielle gave us the whole time and I’m pretty sure more time till we were satisfied. It was a cold day, so we didn’t want to be out there for much longer. While she took our pictures she gave some prompts for posing and things to say to each other to help us look more natural. The direction helped us. Also, we were able to negotiate with her about what we were wanting for our wedding package. I’m so happy that we found her and decided to book with her. Thank you so much Danielle! I feel like we can really trust you with our special day to bring your positive and calming presence to make the photography go smoothly the day of our wedding! We are looking forward to our wedding and your amazing pictures!

If you're the kind of couple that would prefer their photographer feel like one of the guests as opposed to a paparazzi, and if when the neighbors complain about the noise, you just invite them to the party, keep reading. I take a documentary-style approach to my weddings. Roaming with a camera, I capture the candid moments and small details that make your wedding unique to you, while making sure to set aside time for a few special portraits.

Steph is a wizard, ninja, and a unicorn all rolled into one. From the minute we reached out to her she immediately made us know we were in good hands. She was clear, communicative, and professional, but every time we talked it still felt like talking to an old friend. (Several of our guests assumed that she WAS an old friend of ours who happened to be a photographer — that’s how warm and chill she is.) Ahead of time she was great about getting details of exactly what we wanted, so that on the big day she just slipped in and out seamlessly without pulling us away from the fun. She was also careful to figure out exactly what we wanted the vibes of the final product to be (candid, colorful, joyful) and she delivered in spades. The finished products are beautiful and were delivered quickly (both the digital copies and the physical prints we ordered). We cannot recommend her highly enough!

Living my best life in suburban Maryland. I love art and being creative, so photography just seemed like the next step after being an actor for 15 years. Storytelling is a HUGE part of my life- whether it’s sitting around the dinner table recounting funny memories or looking at old photographs of my own family. Some of the best stories in the world were told without words. I am a D&D, gaming, and SQL nerd, I have a newfound love of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and I am a proud plant mom. Never been married before? I'm here to hold your hand.

Maurissa is such an amazing human being! We could not have asked for anyone better to be our wedding photographer! We knew we loved her the minute we met her for our engagement session last winter. She is very outgoing, friendly and honest! She has been very responsive in communication from the beginning. Maurissa goes above and beyond just being a photographer. She made sure everything was lined up, provided a timeline for all the vendors, made sure to get every "must have" photo. Maurissa also helped make sure we enjoyed OUR day. I was very worried about the timeline and being behind on everything but she made sure to remind me that there is no timeline and this was our special day so anything we wanted she would make happen and the guests would be okay entertaining themselves until we were ready! We also got our sneak peaks back already and are so obsessed and cannot wait to see the rest. Maurissa will definitely be showing up in our future because we love her!!

From our first conversation, Justina demonstrated a professional, personal, and friendly communication style that put us at ease. Her positive energy, timely responses, and focus on details throughout the planning process was greatly appreciated. We loved Justina's artistic and unique approach to capturing cinematic and unique moments that truly reflected our vision. When an unexpected situation required a substitute photographer, Justina quickly found a great alternate photographer, shared every details for a smooth transition, and still completed all processing and editing. This led to us receiving a stunning gallery of photos. We couldn't have asked for a more communicative and valuable photography team to be a support our special day!
