As a documentary-style photographer, I truly believe that the essence of life is captured in the unscripted, candid moments that often go unnoticed-- Each click of my camera is more than just a snapshot; it’s an opportunity to freeze time and preserve the love, joy, and uniqueness of your moments for generations to come.

Anna is absolutely incredible and such a pleasure to work with. She really knows how to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera. Her work is absolutely phenomenal as well. I have never been so pleased with a photographer before! Her editing is beautiful and she really can just capture emotions in her photos. Her photography became my favorite aspect of my wedding. She did not only our wedding photos, but a few other shoots as well, including our engagement photos. She is honestly the only person I would trust/recommend to capture your sweet wedding memories. I honestly don’t have enough words to describe how much I cherish the photos that she has taken for the special moment in our lives.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our wedding photos by From GA with Love are absolutely breathtaking. We had our ceremony overlooking a serene Swan Lake at sunset, and the way they captured the luxury and tranquility of that moment still takes my breath away. The shot of us holding hands on the elegant wooden bridge, with the golden light reflecting off the water, looks like it’s straight out of a fairytale. They didn’t just capture the ‘big moments’—the quiet glances, the subtle laughter, and the peaceful calm of our surroundings were all preserved so perfectly. We couldn’t be happier with how every detail was immortalized with such artistry and care. If you want photos that tell the real story of your day—and make it look like pure luxury—look no further!

By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head.

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 amazing! She's so easy to work with, she kept up with my neurotic emails and texts. She's great at communicating all details and scheduling. She is just the most down to earth soul you'll meet. She did a fantastic job at corralling my family for our group picture. I have a HUGE family, and it's not easy to get us all in one spot (especially with children and babies all over) But Meredith was so patient with us. She managed to get AMAZING shots in the chaos.

I had an amazing experience with Kira Trinh Photography! Working with Kira felt effortless. She was very professional yet kept the atmosphere fun and light throughout the session. We started the session by listening to music while sharing ideas. I was truly impressed with her preparation. Kira came with creative poses and concepts, yet she was always receptive to my vision. She helped bring all my visions to reality, I couldn't ask for better! The results were stunning! Kira made me feel comfortable and confident during the photoshoot, which really showed in the results. I can tell she paid attention to each little detail. She perfectly captured my natural beauty, creating photos that feel authentic and unedited. I highly recommend Kira Trinh Photography for any occasion.

Hey, how cool of you to end up here. I promise not to bore you with a bunch of flowery language or over-the-top promises. I love to document real moments. Weddings, elopements, couples' shenanigans - you name it, I am here for it. I do this with a healthy dose of humor, a dash of sarcasm and a whole lot of heart. So if you're looking for someone to capture your day in all its imperfect glory, say something, let's make it happen.

Loy at Sweet Lime takes some great photos. He was a joy to work with and helped set the room up by providing a suggestion that none of the restaurant staff, or us, had thought of which ended up working swimmingly. The day of the wedding, he was present but also not too if that makes sense. He was kind enough to send us a couple preview shots while we impatiently/patiently waited. The photos are well worth the wait. I would be happy to recommend Sweet Lime Photography. You will not be disappointed in his service.

50+ 5-star reviews across major event platforms, and brand new to Zola! My name is Ryan Shephard, and I'm an artist from Cincinnati, OH, (Now located in Chicago, IL) with a large repertoire of experience ranging in a wide variety of musical genres and endeavors including working with and sharing the stage with bands and artists like Sublime with Rome, Richie Ramone of The Ramones, and Chance McCoy of Old Crow Medicine Show. I've played 600+ events that include over a hundred weddings, performances for Fortune 500 companies, high-profile politicians, and more! Quality is my expertise! Let me give you a night to remember.

From the moment we booked Ryan Shephard for our wedding, he was incredibly responsive, quick to answer any questions, and made the entire process easy. On the day of the wedding, Ryan was exactly what we had hoped for - he seamlessly executed our special requests beforehand and took requests from our guests all night long. My husband and I had a very specific vision in mind for the music, and Ryan brought it to life perfectly. My guests raved about him. I cannot recommend Ryan Shephard enough - he was truly amazing and played a big part in making our wedding day so special.

I believe you can't stand behind your business unless you can say you fully understand it – and 24 years of marriage is proof that I KNOW LOVE. I set out to capture the essence of love when I started Parker Photography in 2018. I have been married to my best friend for the last 24 years, and people who meet us swear we are newlyweds. We still act like lovestruck teenagers with each other, that same feeling we get from every newly engaged couple that we meet. We know where our couples are coming from and what they hope to capture in their engagement sessions and on their wedding day, and we make it effortless for them to achieve their goals.

Deb and her team did an absolutely amazing job with our wedding pictures in April 2021. The pictures are so beautiful and did a great job of capturing our day. She got the pictures back to us so quick too! Our friends and family have not stopped texting us raving about how nice the pictures came out! Would recommend Parker Photography to anyone.

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!

Hi! My name is Sara. The last couple years of my photography career has allowed me to travel to new places which I have always wanted to do. Photography has allowed me to travel to Georgia, Florida, Missouri, Kentucky, Virgina, Connecticut Louisiana, and in July will be Oregon, and January 2025 will be Washington.

I am a midwesterner, born and raised in the burbs north of Chicago who strives to capture moments that are gone in a second, impossible to reproduce, but with the help of an artist touch, can last a lifetime. I'm here to connect with you, listen to you, create with you, and provide a stress-free, comfortable atmosphere from start to finish. 3 things about myself, I have 3 dogs (yes, its crazy LOL), I am in loveee with Target, and coffee and mango froyo are my love languages.

Nichole is the best choice you can make for photography for your wedding day! She has a special ability to make all of her couples feel amazing. We love how our gallery came out and she did an amazing job getting pictures without them feeling forced or awkward. We had so much fun having her capture our day. Throughout the planning process, she was always available for a phone call and responsive via email to our questions. Thank you Nichole for everything, you are the best!
