HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts! (But I mean who isnt! I just cant help it!) FUN FACT: I speak switzerdütsch, aka a German slang. My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

Haverlee Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Mediapolis, IA

I’m Haverlee, (hay-verlee), solo parent of three wild things. My photography career was birthed from many years of pain. My life derailed and everything felt unstable and uncertain. The more difficult things became, the more I clung to small moments of beauty. When things felt dark, I clung to the light. And I could always find light in people and in nature. Focusing on others instead of my own dark days brought me joy every time without fail. I always knew I was creative but it took me a while to find my niche! As I ventured into photography, everything fell into place. It was as if I already knew the language, I just had to find the words.

Awarded Best of Zola
There is no one in the world who does it like Haverlee. Haverlee was my family photographer growing up, she did my Mom’s maternity photos, she did my senior photos, and now my wedding photos. There is something really special about receiving photos that bring you back to moments you don’t want to forget, and that’s exactly what she captures- every single time. I’m thankful for the ways she doesn’t create staged photos, but captures genuine moments. I couldn’t recommend a photographer more than her, and am absolutely convinced I won’t ever go with another photographer!

Jason Snorlax Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Mediapolis, IA

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.

I am lucky; I get to do what I love for a living, have a ton of fun doing it, and meet a lot of great people along the way. It's a bonus that I get to also travel a lot for it as well. I hope to always bring that enthusiasm and fun to every wedding as well. I tell myself before every wedding to treat it like it was my very first. I do only weddings, and I only do 30 per year. This lets me focus on my couples and their weddings, and to tell their stories completely. Over 400 weddings spanning 12+ years. And I have never missed a one. Not even late. I may not take myself too seriously, but I take my commitment to my couple seriously.

Jovan was absolutely amazing to work with. On our calls before the big day, she was always happy and excited and answered all of our questions and it gave us such a sense of ease. I never once had to worry and stress about photos. Day of the wedding, she completely killed it. She was still her happy self but was able to organize us and snap some amazing photos. She worked with me on some odd family and friend dynamics and eliminated any worries I had. She did a fantastic job of catching the perfect small moments, some of which I didn’t even know she was capturing. The photos are all so naturally beautiful and I can’t even begin to describe how much we love them. They are clean and bright and show us, our personalities, and our people perfectly. 100% the best decision we made.

Welcome! I am a Kansas City Lifestyle, Portrait, and Wedding Photographer. Growing up I always had an eye for anything artistic and loved being able to share my vision of the world. I was first introduced to photography in my senior year of high school and immediately knew that is what I wanted my career to be. I continued the venture through college and graduated from UMKC with a degree in photography. A little about Noire Studios: Where does the name Noire Studios come from? I mixed my first name and last name (maiden) together - NO (from Noelle) and IRE (from Ireland). Creating a business from a few things that capture ME!

Noire Studios was the best vendor on my wedding day! Noelle and her team made me feel at ease the moment they walked in. The day went beautifully and the images are stunning! We could not have asked for a better photographer!

My name is Meredith. I’m a self-taught photographer, an avid hiker, and a person who loves getting lost in their own city. If I am not photographing, you will either find me in one of two places, a coffee shop or out in nature usually eating my favorite snacks in fish form (Swedish or Gold), or belting anything from musicals to early 2000s country (yes there is a difference) to 90’s hip hop jams.

Meredith is a pleasure to work with. She helped me not only in a pinch but throughout the entire day. She is extremely creative and has an eye for detail! I plan to work with her more moving forward.

SWFL based husband and wife team who love to story tell with authentic and emotive imagery. We have been in business for over 10+ years and have traveled all over to document love. Each wedding for us is a brand new experience, and we treat each couple like they are our own friends. We understand that this is a huge investment not only financially but emotionally - so we put in every bit of effort to make sure you get exactly what you wanted.

Awarded Best of Zola
Salt & Ivy was an absolute dream to work with. Highly communicative, professional, punctual, and absolute artists. From booking to receiving the photos, they were so amazing to work with. I (the bride) am typically very uncomfortable taking photographs. This was the first time in my life that I was actually at ease and having fun. 10/10 would and will book them again in the future for family/maternity photographs.

I work in the renewable energy sector, but photography is my passion. In addition to photographing weddings and portraits, I do landscape and wildlife photography. I love to see people inspired to get outdoors, explore and have adventures because they have seen my photographs. My wishes are to inspire YOU and capture photographs that describe you.

It was a pleasure to work with Cassandra for our wedding. Her communication style was flexible and she always answered our questions promptly. The quality of her work was outstanding - she was professional and flexible throughout the process. Cassandra was calm, patience, and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, even though our engagement session was our first professional photo shoot together. She was amazing at capturing the special moments of our wedding day, and we loved the amazing engagement and wedding photos she delivered, which arrived earlier than expected. We highly recommend her!

WHO I AM: Hey!! I'm Natalie, a wedding and elopement photographer from Lincoln, Nebraska who serves couples all around Nebraska, Arkansas, Colorado and everywhere in between and around! I have been photographing weddings for 4 years and am still counting. Whether I am behind the camera or not I absolutely love to travel. The days I am not behind the camera (or computer!) are spent with my fiance Trent and pups Milo & Clyde. Whether it's riding atv's or just hanging out on the couch, we enjoy both.

Natalie is amazing to work with and my wedding day was running behind and then just changed around and she kept with the flow it was nice to have a photographer who worked with you!

Being part of my clients story, is where I have found my calling. Capturing moments in your life, freezing those memories, and making them stay alive each time you look at your photos, is truly what makes my time rewarding. There are never too many questions or emails, because everything I provide for you should be exactly as you envision, but better.

Honestly, our big day would have not been as amazing if it wasn’t for Cori. She literally is so amazing! She captured every detail and every unplanned beautiful moment wonderfully. She’s professional, fun, makes everything less stressful, helps out where she can even outside the photos and video just to help ensure your day is as beautiful as possible. We had a lot of hiccups on our wedding and she helped far past what was needed and it made the biggest difference for me personally more than she even knows. She’s level headed and helps you get back focused on your special day. The day, the pictures, the video all AMAZING!

Hey Friend! Photography is my absolute passion and it shines through my images!!! I live for the RAW moments... the true emotion of the day. Tears that fall during a first look, the last hug with your loved ones before you walk down the aisle, and the ear to ear smiles once you've said "I Do!" I blend candid and guided shots, giving you the freedom to move about the day to enjoy it, while never having the thought of “what should I be doing” running through your mind! You'll be able to look back on your wedding photos 40 years from now and FEEL the emotions you felt that day. That's my promise to you!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Lauren for our wedding, and I truly can’t recommend her enough! From the moment we first met her, it was clear that she wasn’t just passionate about photography—she genuinely cared about capturing the essence of our day in the most beautiful, authentic way possible. Lauren has an extraordinary eye for detail. She doesn’t just take pictures; she captures moments—the spontaneous smiles, the glances exchanged, the raw emotions. From the very beginning, she made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera—something neither of us was used to. She took the time to understand our style and personalities, and tailored her approach to fit that perfectly. On the day of the wedding, her calm and positive energy was a grounding presence amid all the excitement. Lauren made the entire process feel seamless and enjoyable, from our engagement shoot to the wedding day and beyond. She’s a true artist, and her work will be cherished by us for years to come. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who is not only professional but will go above and beyond to capture your most important moments, look no further than Lauren. She exceeded every expectation we had, and we are forever grateful! Thank you, Lauren, for giving us memories that will last a lifetime!
