Brayley was hands down the easiest and one of the best hires for our wedding. I found her through the Zola website as a photographer with five stars. I reached out, and she got back to me immediately. Her communication skills were top-notch, and I hired her that same day. My fiancé and I live in the Carolinas, and despite the three-hour time difference, we always felt in the loop, heard, and understood. From the first email to the wedding day, she was amazing. Now let's get to the important stuff... the wedding day. She was incredible. She got all the shots I wanted and then some. We were able to get all the photos done in a timely manner so that we could get back to the party and enjoy ourselves. Brayley captured both staged photos and the best candids. We cannot wait to get the rest of our album back. If you're thinking about hiring Brayley... DO IT!

Whether you are throwing a massive get together with all of your friends and family, or putting together a smaller, more intimate wedding day, no day will come close in comparison. I have always loved capturing weddings in a documentary fashion. I don't do super posed photos but instead I like to capture moments as they happen. I don't lay out intricate patterns with bobbins, ribbon and invitations, but instead photograph the small details in their true and simplistic form.

From the moment we first spoke with Elizabeth, we knew we were in good hands. She was prompt, understanding, and insightful throughout the entire process. She was creative and knowledgeable in her approach to our unusual wedding venue, capturing the day in an authentic and natural way. Elizabeth provided helpful prompts that put us at ease in front of the camera, as we are not natural photo people. She was also more than willing to try different ideas to make our photos unique and special. One thing that was really important to us was ensuring our guests felt included, so we asked Elizabeth to photograph all the couples at our small wedding. She expertly coordinated this, and our guests were thrilled to receive the special photos to take home. We are over the moon with the final results and highly recommend Nelson Cinematic to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience. We will forever cherish the memories that each picture holds.

It’s not enough to simply take beautiful photos of people in epic scenery and bring forth their personalities. Nearly every photographer can do that these days. What I think matters most is being an mirror, a witness to people’s small and big moments in their lives and capturing those for them. I want to capture moments and photos that mean something to my clients throughout their lives- the photos they hang on their walls to bring them joy when they are going through a tough time and the photos that bring them comfort at the funerals of their loved ones.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alyssa is incredible in every way. She did our engagement photos, our wedding and our day after photoshoot. We are so impressed with the quality of the photos! I actually started crying looking at the wedding photos haha. She really knows her stuff, which was so helpful because we had no idea where to start when it came to location for our engagement shoot and in regards to timeline for the wedding. She's hands on where you need her to be, but also hands off and knows how to blend into the background when needed. We hardly noticed her at the wedding but her and her second shooter got every single important shot we could have asked for. She was super friendly and easy to work with, I highly recommend her!

When I’m not with my golden retriever, Rigley, (which is always, since I’m a work-from-home dog mom) adventuring to a new Arizona destination, finding my next favorite taco shop, or trying a new workout, you’ll probably find me in some pretty desert location third-wheeling with super-in-love couples and loving every second of capturing it!

I had a destination wedding so my go to on finding vendors was instagram. As soon as I stumbled on Briquelle’s page I just knew I wanted her take our photos! Her work is so beautiful and matched my aesthetic so well. We had never done any kind of professional photos together and she was great at telling us what to do, to get the best shots and not look awkward. She did our engagement and wedding photos and I’m so in love with all them! She also just started offering videography in her packages as well and we were so lucky to get in on it! It was so beautifully done and captured our day perfectly. Briquelle and her team are hands down the best!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,500

I'm based out of North Dakota & Arizona but will travel anywhere that your love takes me. I've loved taking photos and anything that involved any form or art ever since I was a little girl. I have an amazing husband of almost 5 years and 3 big wonderful pups. I love to travel, hike, spending days at my local coffee shops and nights at breweries in town.

We were incredibly fortunate to have Dana Maruna and her second shooter, Brie, capture our wedding in Minot, ND, in August 2023. From the moment we first connected with Dana, her exceptional communication skills shone through. She was responsive, attentive, and took the time to understand our vision and preferences, making the planning process a breeze. Dana's professionalism and organization put us at ease, and we knew we were in capable hands. Brie, the second shooter, was equally amazing. Their collaborative work ensured no moment was missed, adding depth and variety to our photos. It was evident that both Dana and Brie were dedicated to providing the best possible service, working seamlessly together. What set Dana apart was her offering of film photography, which added a unique and timeless quality to our wedding photos. We can't wait to see the results, and even though we don't have our full gallery back, we have so much trust that it's going to be wonderful. Dana is not only skilled but also passionate about preserving memories in an artistic and meaningful way. Despite living in NYC, we were lucky to have found Dana for our Minot wedding, and her talent made the distance a non-issue. Additionally, Dana and Brie are the creators of Roam Collective, an educational platform for wedding photographers. They conduct workshops all over the country, showcasing their commitment to advancing the art of wedding photography and giving back to the community. But it's not just about professionalism—Dana has become more than our wedding photographer; she's now a dear friend. This personal connection added an extra layer of warmth and comfort to the entire photography experience. It's truly special to not only have had Dana and Brie document our wedding but also to continue building a lasting friendship with Dana. Their genuine care and personal touch make them stand out as more than just professionals but as people who genuinely care about their clients and their stories. In sum, we couldn't be happier with our choice of Dana Maruna as our wedding photographer. Her exceptional communication, talent, dedication to her craft, and educational initiatives through Roam Collective make her and Brie remarkable individuals in the wedding photography industry. They have not only captured our special day beautifully but have also become cherished friends in the process. We highly recommend Dana and Brie to anyone seeking not only photographers but also dedicated professionals and friends. Thank you, Dana and Brie, for making our wedding day truly unforgettable, and we have complete trust that our full gallery will be just as wonderful as the journey to it.

One thing I absolutely refused to leave behind is my love for photography. I moved here with my husband for a change of speed. It has been such a beautiful change!

I highly recommend Laura. Laura is everything we wanted in a photographer and more. She is talented, personable, and creative. She gave great direction to me and my husband, both awkward in front of a camera, and produced great results for both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. The value for what you get in terms of quality and quantity is incredible. We will definitely work with Laura again if we get the opportunity!

Hi, I'm Ricky, owner and lead photographer. Wedding planning doesn't need to be stressful. And you don't have to do it alone. I GOT YOU! You want to enjoy your big day, so I make sure you have time for just the two of you alone and I try to get you back to your cocktail hour as soon as possible so you can enjoy your friends' company. More importantly, I promise through my mix of direction and “fly on the wall” style of photography, you will feel relaxed and excited in front of my lens. All I ask of my couples is to be open-minded, open-hearted, respectful, and unapologetically YOU!! Bottom line, be exactly who you are and I will do the rest.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Ricky - Goodeye Photography - for both our engagement and wedding photos, and holy cow did he blow us away. Hiring him was easily the best decision we made. From start to finish, Ricky was an absolute joy to work with. His professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail made every minute of planning and shooting a wonderful experience. I originally found Ricky on Instagram (@goodeye.photography) and after a quick scroll through his page, I instantly knew he was who we needed. Every photo in his portfolio had emotion and love in them. After finding his Instagram page, I reached out and he very quickly responded with all necessary information. He communicated clearly and quickly throughout this entire process which was very appreciated! I plan events professionally and half the time it’s like pulling teeth to even get a response from someone. Never once did Ricky have a delayed response or leave us with more questions than answers. My husband is what we’d call “camera shy” and was pretty anxious leading up to our engagement shoot as this was his first time getting professional photos done. And while Ricky always behaves in a very professional manner, he also is extremely personable, friendly, and frankly just straight up funny. We instantly connected with him and he made my husband feel so much more relaxed - heck, my husband even had FUN during the shoot which I didn’t think possible haha. It goes without saying that the engagement photos were absolutely stunning… each one better than the last. As the big day drew nearer, Ricky met with us regularly and assisted us in our agenda, timeline, and all these other small details you don’t even think about. On the day of our wedding, Ricky and his team went above and beyond to capture every moment. He has an incredible eye for detail and was able to capture the essence of our day beautifully. (Petition for him to change his name from Good Eye Photography to Incredible Eye Photography ;) After the ceremony was over and it was time for my new husband and I to sneak off during cocktail hour to take our photos, a lovely wedding guest managed to spill red wine all down my white dress. Before I could even flinch, Ricky immediately jumped in and said “Don’t worry, I can edit out these red stains in all the pictures.” One of the BEST parts of working with Ricky is also his quick turnaround time. I wanna say it was like 5 days after the wedding and Ricky had already turned around a handful of “sneak peak” photos - which is quite impressive considering how many other weddings he had booked after ours. And to no ones surprise - there wasn’t a hint of red wine stains in any of the pictures ) Our wedding photos are more than what we could have ever hoped for. I may be biased, but truly some of these pictures deserve to be hung in the Louvre. I cannot recommend Good Eye Photography enough (and on that note it’s worth mentioning that since our engagement photoshoot with Ricky, two of my other friends that were engaged have also hired him and his team for their weddings)! If you are looking for a talented and passionate photographer who will go the extra mile to make your special moments unforgettable and your planning process a breeze, then Ricky is the guy for you.

Hi! My name is Nikholas, I am a wedding and special event photographer based in Arizona. My photography journey started about 8 years ago when I got my first camera as a gift, slowly evolving from a hobby into a passion that I pursue every day. Throughout my journey, I've always felt most drawn to working with people and documenting their emotions. We all live very unique and special lives and being able to capture and share those moments that are so real, so full of pure feeling is...amazing. The best photos are felt, not seen.

Your wedding is a reflection of your individuality, and it deserves to be as distinctive as you are. Let us create art from your wedding day that is extraordinary and uniquely yours. We specialize in vibrant, contemporary, and dynamic photography for couples who boldly embrace their authenticity and are ready to celebrate in style. Our approach is centered around you and your relationship. We curate a bespoke experience that is dedicated to originality. Our natural posing technique emphasizes movement and genuine emotions, ensuring that the authenticity of your wedding day is beautifully present in every photograph.

Working with Sara Bishop for my late-September wedding in Scottsdale was an absolute dream. I was initially drawn to Sara’s fun and funky aesthetic and her ability to capture candid, genuine emotions over stiff, posed photos. That was exactly what I wanted—and she delivered a million times over! Looking through my photos feels like is like reliving my wedding all over again. Sara managed to capture every special guest and moment in ways that showcased their personalities and the incredible vibe of our day. Every time I look at them, I find a new favorite—it’s going to be so hard to decide which ones to display because there are just so many amazing options! Beyond the photos, Sara was a joy to work with every step of the way. Before the wedding, she sent proactive emails asking for our family shot list and other photo requests, which put me at ease that nothing would be missed. On the day itself, she brought a detailed timeline and kept things moving quickly—it was a very hot day so we were hoping to get our outdoor photos done as quickly as possible and Sara made that happen. During the reception, Sara and her assistant blended seamlessly into the party, capturing all of the energy without being intrusive. Sara delivered our highlights promptly, and the full gallery arrived about six weeks later. Her website offers some great options for purchasing prints, which I can’t wait to take advantage of in the new year. If you’re looking for wedding photos that are full of fun, candor, and raw emotion, I cannot recommend Bish enough!

Hey everyone, I'm Mike, I live in Phoenix, Arizona with my wife Jina and three amazing kiddos. I have two loves when it comes to photography, storms and people. I get to do storm half the year and weddings the other half and it makes my job absolutely amazing. I've photographed over 200 weddings now, from Nicaragua to Montana, on the edge of a volcano and in the middle of a monsoon thunderstorm. I've seen it all by now and know exactly how to capture your day without missing a thing.

We are big fans of climbing mountains, going on road trips, tasting wines & craft beer, spending quality time with new friends and old, and mostly Jesus. We are two easy going people who are just about as goofy as they come, and we are big fans of a good dance party! We're so excited to meet you :)

My husband and I cannot recommend Poppy and Vine enough. Katie & Jo are two of our dearest friends, so we have the honor of knowing them personally. These two humans are so humble, genuine, caring, and dedicated to people and the work they do. It is evident throughout the photo taking process and your final products how much they care. Katie & Jo have taken all of our important life photos thus far, and will have no choice but to continue to as long as we live near them!! With Poppy and Vine you will have an amazing experience shooting, as Katie & Jo make you feel so comfortable and will bring lots of humor and joy to any occasion - guaranteed. They are also really great at listening to what YOU want. Whether it was our proposal, engagement shoot or last minute COVID wedding, Katie and Jo were able to capture every special moment in a way that highlighted the love and emotion of each. The photos we have received from them we will treasure forever! My husband and I so encourage you to reach out and get in touch with Poppy and Vine, they are wonderful, sweet humans and are very gifted photographers.

We are Tina and Kevin, and we photographed our first wedding and launched Sierra Blanco Photography in 2005 where we first met, in the White Mountains of Arizona – hence the name, Sierra Blanco. Since then we have made a couple of moves, first Flagstaff for five years, and then Anthem, where we live today; we have photographed over 700 weddings to date; we have traveled extensively around the world to photograph those weddings, covering three continents - Europe, Africa and North America; we have been recognized by our peers and won numerous industry awards; and most importantly, we have had the good fortune to do all of this together!

Tina and Kevin of Sierra Blanco Photography are at the top of the wedding photography craft! Their work is artistic and gorgeous, and they are down-to-earth people that are a delight to work with. In addition, their knowledge of special locations throughout the Southwest is a huge asset to any couple planning a destination elopement or wedding. We highly recommend Sierra Blanco Photography to any couple looking for a one-of-a-kind wedding, elopement, engagement, or proposal photography experience.

I am so glad you're looking for someone to capture some special memories in your life! Hopefully, that's me! I am a proud Filipina, dog mom of 3, and an avid TV show binger. I love all forms of art and I try to see the beauty in everything. I moved here from the Philippines in 2017 with my husband, Pat! I started professionally under Picnic Point AZ, my other business, where I would take photos of our customers at our picnics and some product photography for us and some friends. When I'm not shooting or editing, you can find me setting up picnics or hanging out at home with my 3 crazy dogs and husband. I hope I get to meet you!

AJ has been the best since the start, she & her husband are such sweet souls & they made sure we got exactly what we wanted & so much more. Aj was so helpful not just with capturing our moments together but also with helping me plan the schedule for the wedding ( your girl was struggling ) & i will for sure will be booking for future events :)

My journey began with boudoir and captureing couples. I later ventured into weddings which I instantly fell in love! They are so intimate, filled with love and magic.

Weddings and working with couples has brought me so much joy and I love nothing more that providing beautiful galleries filled with emotional and magical memories.

***Please send inquiries to my website.*** I began photography in 2015 when I became a photojournalist for the U.S. Air Force. I photographed my first wedding in 2017 and completely fell in love. From there, my passion for photography and working with couples only grew, and I finally decided to begin my business. I love my husband, cold brew coffee, being outdoors and my two dogs! I lived in Charleston, South Carolina, for 5 years, but I now call Phoenix home, however I will probably never stop traveling back for weddings. When I'm not with my family or working, you can find me with a good book or trying out a new restaurant.

Justin and Lauren truly are amazing. From start to finish the entire experience of having them shoot our engagement and wedding photos was absolutely fantastic. Justin & Lauren do incredible work, are professional and always quick to respond with any questions or clarifications, and as an added bonus are quite fun to spend time with. Even as someone who is not very comfortable in front of the camera, their laid-back attitude and patience with my awkwardness immediately placed me at ease and turned our shoot into a genuinely enjoyable experience. Their photo quality is incredible, and we have received countless compliments on both our photos and the final album they created for us. I can't say enough how much I would recommend them to any and everyone, you won't be disappointed.

I'm a phoenix wedding photographer and destination elopement photographer. My style combine magic & your unique love story to capture authentic photography for couples who value living in the moment. Life is precious, and I learned that the hard way. On a random Wednesday afternoon, one of my friends committed suicide. And although we were very close, I didn’t have any photos of those good moments. We were busy living life in the moment and never pause to snap a photo. As time goes by, I felt like I’m losing more and more of our good memories.

Sam was an amazing photographer for our elopement. When we decided to elope, we knew the one thing we wanted to invest in was fabulous photos, and we got exactly that and more with Sam! Knowing photography would be our biggest investment, it was paramount that we found the perfect match. We’d interviewed a few other photographers, but they were all from larger companies and had a sort of “cookie cutter” formula for elopements. They were really missing the personal experience we were looking for for our special day. We really wanted an adventure elopement that was unique to us and truly captured that moment, not just posed photos taken in the same landscape that every other couple takes. After talking with Sam and reviewing his previous work, we knew he was the person for the job. We started planning our elopement in 2020 after Covid ruined our original plans. Sam was so communicative and reassuring for the full year we were planning our wedding. On the actual day of our elopement, Sam was a life saver. When our original getting ready location didn’t work out he let us use his van to get ready in - seriously don’t know what we would have done without him. We have never had professional photos taken before and don’t really know how to be in front of a camera, but Sam was incredible by giving us little prompts to help us loosen up and relax. We felt like models by the time we started hiking to our ceremony. Sam took care of us from start to finish, all the way to the fine details of offering snacks and hot drinks throughout the day. It was a cold rainy day the day of our elopement (we eloped in a rainforest - go figure). Sam was nothing but professional and matched our energy the entire time, running up and down the beach, following us to every rock we wanted to climb and every river log we wanted to cross, and capturing every moment in between. Let me tell you - those windy rainy photos are absolutely stunning! I was worried how it might turn out because it wasn’t the sunny day I’d imagined, but Sam worked his magic and the photos are phenomenal. He made all of my Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams kissing on the beach dreams come true. We were driving when we received the sneak peaks and had to pull over and sob with joy as we relived the experience. And that was just the sneak peaks! We couldn’t be happier with how they all turned out! If you’re having trouble deciding on a photographer, I urge you to choose Sam! Hands down the best decision we made!

I’m Katie and weddings are my absolute favorite! Your wedding will be one of the best and most memorable days of your life and umm I love being a part of that! My goal is to capture you and your partner’s personalities and emotions on your special day. I want to have fun with you and be the fly on the wall when you both are just taking in all the bliss of the day!

I can’t recommend Katie enough!! From her skill to her creativity and direction, she captured our wedding day so perfectly and made it such a breeze and fun experience along the way. We’ve been lucky enough to have Katie photograph us a couple times throughout the years so it felt so special for her to shoot our wedding day. Our family and friends felt so comfortable in front of the camera with her direction and she always had great ideas and poses for everyone. We got our wedding party portraits done before the ceremony which freed up time after the ceremony to get family shots and our solo wedding portraits too. It didn’t feel like a chore or like it took anything away from the day, but added to it! Once the dinner and party started, she was right there in the crowd capturing so many funny and special moments. Seriously, cannot recommend her enough. And she will travel! 10/10
