  • Serves Merlin, OR for additional fees

My name is Abby, a Midwest based wedding + boudoir photographer who's really obsessed with her job. I've gotten to see how directly photos can impact people. As we grow up, we realize how priceless photos are and how quality pictures become prized possessions. It's a moment in time you can forever look back on. It's easy to take pictures, but it's hard to capture moments. I'll love making magic with you, because everyone has some magic in them that deserves to be celebrated.

Abby was the absolute best photographer for our wedding! She was organized, prepared, friendly, adorable, overall 10 out of 10! She did a great job directing the room which made the photos a piece of cake! Also, she went above and beyond and was helping me with my dress. Not to mention, the photos are STUNNING! My husband and I would highly recommend her! I’ll definitely use her for any of my upcoming photo needs!

As a photographer, my goal is to capture stories in the form of images. Photos have the power to help you relive a specific moment in time and recall all of the emotions and details surrounding that moment. When I work with you on a photo project, my goal is to provide you with photographic records of those moments. I want you to be able to look back at your photos years from today and be able to relive that moment in time.

Wow our pictures were breathtaking, we can’t even begin to thank you! We will have these pictures forever hanging them up in our house and will be coming to you for all our family pictures now!

After weeks of searching, I found Ashley and connected with her via social media. She was amazing to work with and coordinate- we hit it off and we knew she had to be our photographer. Ashley was amazing every step of the way, we did engagement photos as well as wedding photos with her - and were over the moon with both sets. Our wedding was an intimate out door wedding, in June - it ended up pouring rain the whole day and several things seemed to go haywire but Ashley kept me calm and kept us focused and on track - our families loved her. She brings a absolutely amazing energy to taking photos that has you feeling comfortable from the start. She has amazing floral and makeup vendors and is happy to assist in figuring out other things as well. I couldn’t have done it without her and I am forever in love with our rainy wedding photos.

Together, we’ll craft a seamless timeline, embrace the unexpected moments, and handle anything the day throws our way.

It was clear she’s super dedicated to making every photo spectacular. And the results? Wow. The photos came out beautifully—each one really captured the emotions and excitement of the day.

I've been behind the camera more years that not. I've gotten on lots of planes, driven many miles, and gotten up before the sun for the sake of a good story. I like collaborating and telling a story that resonates true to my subjects.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing a wedding photographer was nerve-wracking, but Nicole exceeded our expectations. We didn't want to worry about a photo list and keeping tabs on photo ops; instead, we wanted a photographer who had a creative enough eye to capture memories as they happened. And that was 100% Nicole. She has a beautiful documentary style and caught so many romantic and special moments throughout our day. From playing with our cats as we got ready at home, to my mom pinning the veil on my head in my bedroom, to me and my fiance trying to sneak kisses before the ceremony. I love the photos because they feel like real moments we can look back on -- we have some beautiful staged ones as well, but the raw ones throw us back into the day. Plus, they also look like something out of Pinterest, so they also met our vision! The style was just like the ones on her professional website, so you can trust you will get something similar. I also love how personable she and Tyler (her second shooter) are. We became fast friends the moment we met, so it felt like a friend was taking our pictures rather than a stranger. That made the day all the more special and intimate.

My husband and I worked with Natalie on a destination first anniversary session in Scotland - the photos are better than our actual wedding photos! Natalie was fantastic at posing us and directing us to create beautiful shots. Her ability to capture both our expressions as well as the beauty of the scenery around us was unmatched. She was up for exploring around the wilderness location, including hiking and climbing through lakeside hills, and never made us feel like we were taking too long. The quality of the final products is crystal clear and amazing - it looks like we are back in the woods of the Scottish Highlands every time we look at the pictures.

Hi there. I am a wedding + lifestyle photographer serving the East Bay, San Francisco, Napa, Sonoma and Sacramento areas. My focus is on outdoor weddings: gardens, historic homes, wineries, parks, private estates, forests, national parks, and country clubs. I adore details and love when couples pour their hearts and souls into making their wedding a special day they will remember forever.

I got married in Napa Valley and didn't know who to hire for my professional pictures. The venue recommended a few names and after contacting Vanessa I knew that is who I wanted to work with. She was very caring and patient. She was on time and didn't disrupt the moment when I was getting ready, instead she made it special. She gave us poses to do and talked to the venue to make sure we could go to a little bridge I wanted to take pictures at. I highly recommend her!!

Once I started taking portraits, though, everything shifted, and I became obsessed with documenting love. I value photos as memories, and they’re extremely precious to me. To me, the ability to freeze a moment in time so you’ll always be able to return to that beauty and joy is nothing short of magic.

She is precious and perfect and excellent at what she does. My wife and I happened upon Marla’s work when she first moved to Seattle in our hunt for queer friendly photographers. From the first moment we spoke we knew we’d be in good hands. Working with Marla felt like hanging out with a friend. We love her and you will love her too. We didn’t absorb that she specialized in elopement photography when we found her, but clearly she’s versatile because our photos are gorgeous! As people who aren’t used to being photographed professionally, Marla gave great direction when we needed it and caught a million beautiful candid moments. She forgot her coat in her fiancés car and did not complain or act chilly even though her nose and cheeks were turning red (don’t worry, we shared our jackets with her haha). Our guests also raved about her!!! She’s lovely and talented; she will make you feel comfortable and encouraged and beautiful.

Why have a wedding day coordinator, when you can have Kristy??? I hired Kristy knowing the work would be phenomenal, but did not know how she ran the show! I had a day of coordinator who was also my florist. Girl, was no where to be found when I needed her and asked me too many question day of that I repeated told her to ask my made of honor. When Kristy showed up, Kristy had a plan and activated the plan. Her timing was down to a T! She made friends with the other vendors, kept everyone on a schedule, and helped me feel utterly calm on a stressful day. HIRE. KRISTY. Her quality is great, delivery is timely, and she knows the workings of your day no matter how simple to complex your wedding day is.

Hey there! My name is Michael, I'm a photographer based in the Reno/Tahoe area but I'm always traveling across the west coast and beyond for my clients. I focus on capturing your memories in an authentic, timeless fashion while also making comfortability and connection my top priority.

Michael captured our wonderful day with so much ease, competence, and humor. Prior to our day, we had a couple chats via zoom and phone, easing any stress and answering any questions I had. He arrived on time on our wedding day and he managed to stay present during that day but not intruding or ever being in the way. The final album was beautiful and had so many great pictures. He’s a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend him.

Celebrating love is the best high for me, and getting to do this job where I not only see love, but see the connection, those free-spirit giggling moments, and those ugly real moments… that is what truly keeps my world spinning. My art is all about honey-kissed warmth and sweet fire-burnin’ connections. It’s about capturing and sharing those intimate moments that feel like movie moments, real love in raw form.

We just did an engagement shoot with Caroline and we love our photos!!! They are so amazing, I added one of my faves. It’s so clear in our results how amazing and creative she is at her job. It’s funny bc in the moment it can feel so awkward and unflattering and then I see the results and i’m amazed at how great they are and how beautiful I feel in each one. Caroline has been nothing short of fantastic to work with she makes it so easy. I am certain she was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer and I am beyond excited!

Pawel and I have know each other for more years than either one of us care to admit. We met the old fashion way, in a bar and have been married for 10 amazing years. In fact it’s really hard to try and remember a time when we weren’t a part of each other’s lives and that makes my heart happy. We enjoy bad movies, old sci-fi from the 50’s, kung-fu movies from the 70’s and terrible 80’s VHS movies. When we aren’t photographing awesome couples you can find us wandering around the desert or heading to Las Vegas. We truly enjoy being in each other’s company.

Jenn and Pawel Photography were the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the moment we booked them, their communication was easy, friendly and professional. They felt like part of the family, working seamlessly with everyone to capture all the special moments. Jenn and Pawel have an amazing artistic eye, turning every setting into a work of art. They brought wonderful ideas, were never bossy, and just got the job done with enthusiasm. We couldn't be happier with the incredible photos that beautifully preserve the joy of our wedding day. Hands down, Jenn and Pawel are the best photographer team around!

Forget tradition. Screw the rules. You deserve photos that reflect your life, personality, and style, not some cookie-cutter session that looks like everyone else's. My name is Daniela (she/her). I'm a plus size, super tall queer. I'm detailed and organized, but am laid-back and will pivot quickly to adapt to changing circumstances. I believe in equity and inclusiveness of all loves, body types, and beings.  My favorite movie is Nightmare Before Christmas, I regularly rate dogs' butts, and I believe the highest compliment is being called "scrappy." 

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very beginning, Daniela was amazing to work with! She got to know us as individuals and as a couple, which allowed her to capture us and our relationship in the most realistic way. Her calm and professional presence helped relax us on our big day, and made sure to check in with us consistently throughout the night. Our pictures turned out BEAUTIFULLY, and we are forever grateful to have such a special day captured forever. We can never thank Daniela and her assistant, Sam, for all they have done for us!

Hey there, I'm Karli your wedding and engagement photographer. I am absolutely passionate about capturing the authentic and intimate moments as your wedding day unfolds! When you look back on your photographs, I want you to relive all the emotions you experienced.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Karli to photograph our micro-wedding in June. Even though we had a smaller guest count than anticipated, we wanted to make sure that we could capture the memories from our event for posterity. She went above and beyond to deliver amazing photographs and was super respectful of the different aspects of our wedding that differed from a traditional American wedding. For example, the bride and groom wanted to mix & match parts from their different Asian heritages that they loved, including outfit changes for the bride and for the groom's mother, traditional food, and a tea ceremony for the bride and groom's parents. Karli was able to get candid shots of everything. For those couples who are going for a rustic and down to Earth Southern barn wedding, look no further! This is your photographer. She will take the time to get to know you as a couple (which makes for the most authentic photographs).
