You know when you meet someone and it feels like you've been friends forever? That's Heather for you! Heather is fun, kind, warm, and will be your ultimate hype girl! Aside from being an awesome human, Heather is a talented photographer. Don't know how to pose and feel super awkward in front of a camera like me? No worries, Heather's got you! She'll direct you on how to stand, how to put your hands, how your face should look, give you hot tips... all of it! She also has a sharp eye for beautiful landscapes. You're in good hands and will have cute photos, I promise. In addition to Heather, we were lucky enough to work with her videographer, Andrew, and another shooter from her team. The entire HCP team was so fun to work with you and will put you right at ease. I've gotten to do 3 shoots with Heather to date and am incredibly pleased with how our photos have come out. In fact, I haven't even gotten the final album for our wedding yet (just previews) and i'm STILL impressed! If you have the opportunity to work with this team, take it. I couldn't recommend them enough.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

From the first consultation phone call I had with David I gained great confidence in him. He took the time to answer all my questions, and jot down my ideas. He wanted to learn about each of us in greater detail so he could capture our personalities in the photos. David didn’t pose us and make us feel like statues. He effortlessly caught candid interactions and each photo makes you relive the moment all over again.

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have admired Steve's beautiful work for years! He has an artistic style that is uniquely his and that comes to him so naturally after years of honing his craft. He has an eye for things that most people wouldn't have seen. I've had the pleasure of getting to work with him several times now and he's so kind and has such a calming presence which is exactly what you want from your wedding photographer/videographer! I'm currently helping my sister plan her wedding and when she got engaged he was the first vendor I sent to her to look at. She was blown away, as I knew she would be, by his work and loved how his wedding videos felt so natural, candid, and also didn't look like every other wedding video. His ability to tell a story both in photograph and video is remarkable. As a wedding photographer, if I had to redo my wedding day, I would without a doubt have Steve there to capture it.

Nelena and Dom took photos at my rustic/modern wedding at cider mill in Princeton, Illinois. Once the four of us met, my husband and I loved how easy it was to speak to Nelena and Dom and how they immediately understood where we were coming from. As introverts we wanted a photographer with a larger-than-life personality, someone who would find candid moments on our day and Andreoni Photography really brought the fun. I can’t stress enough how truly wonderful our experience was. The two of them worked so well together. They brought so much excitement and fun when capturing photos of our wedding party. Nelena and Dom were always so responsive to my many questions and concerns I had. I could expect a response from either of them within 24 hours and usually much quicker than that. The first time my now-husband and I saw the photos, we melted! We had a date night and snuggled up on the couch, and loaded the photos onto our big screen. It truly felt like we were back on our special day. We loved the unique poses and fun and intimate moments Andreoni photography captured. I had no idea our small town wedding could look so incredibly beautiful. The finished photos ooze class, sophistication and refinement.

Let's create wedding images with real emotion, story, and intention to them. I know being in front of the camera can be awkward.

These prompts will help you feel comfortable and also help create candid images. Check out my website for more info :)

After the debut of those beautiful, phone quality captures, the inquiries came rolling in! I was pleasantly surprised and within months decided it was only right to invest in proper gear. Officially established in 2021, I've been beyond blessed with the chance to meet so many wonderful people and capture their once in a lifetime moments! Anya Grace 🖤

I love working with couples and getting to know you better! My hope is to get to your wedding day and feel like we’re old friends (like, I'd make the cut and be invited to your wedding if I wasn't your photographer!). I'm definitely a people person, so if we end up working together, be prepared... I will chat your ear off! I'm not into super stiff, micromanaged posing, I'm much more laid back than that and think we get much better energy in photos when we can have fun together and you can be yourself!

We loved working with Cindy at our wedding this last summer!! We treasure all the wonderful moments that she captured on our big day! Her communication before the event was top notch, helping me walk through a timeline for the day and figuring out all the logistics of the photography aspects. My husband and I had such a fun time taking engagement pictures with her as well. Those pictures are too cute! On the big day, Cindy was so professional, friendly, and kind. She put everyone at ease. She was careful to get great pictures of all family and friends, and we are so thankful to have those. We love the way, she incorporates, real color and light to create such a warm and happy feeling in her photography. She does not blur out or fade out colors as some photographers do, and we are in love with the result. Our pictures have such a happy, bright feeling to them. We are so thankful we chose Brightside Creative to document our wedding day. Thank you Cindy for sharing your talents with us!

Haverlee Photography

Des Moines, IA

  • Serves Oakland, 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
We chose Haverlee for our wedding photographer and it was hands-down our best choice of vendors for the big day. I initially chose her after scrolling through her work and recognizing a unique talent- she captured REAL moments, in people's natural environments, without "over-editing." Then we met her in person and that's what sealed the deal! Haverlee is relaxed, professional, and fun. She brought a second-shooter who was equally as great and complimented her style very well. It was a joy to work with an artist who is quickly gaining momentum in her field, and whose passion is un-matched. We have since recommended her to many friends and we're excited to work with her again in the future!

She was flexible with us when we decided to tweak our timeline a little bit during our wedding and made sure to just go with it and capture all the moments of us with our guests.

My business has been a decade in the making from falling in love with photography in high school, to now... My love for Milkweed and my time spent living in Iowa has inspired my business name. I used to live near a conservation center with fields of milkweed. My children and I spent many days enjoying this haven of beauty and were blessed to see thousands of Monarch butterflies migrate to the Milkweed. I realize how fleeting these moments are and would love to capture your story!

Working with milkweed moments is a breeze! I was nervous because I have a 3 and 1 year old, and wasn’t sure how they would cooperate. Aubriana made everything go smoothly. She’s great with kids, great with directives on posing, and really made the day so fun! She got all the shots I dreamed of!”. Will be booking her again in the future!

Awarded Best of Zola
When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

Hello hello! My name is Marie and I am the owner and photographer for Wild Elegance. We are a brand for adventurers, for lovers of life, and genuine people who love those little moments between the moments in life and seek out truth over perfection. Your marriage is unique because of the relationships you have with the people you choose to celebrate with. Spending my day with you and your closest family and friends brings me such joy, and creating art out of some of the best moments of your life is something I am truly honored to be a part of for so many.

Knowing how much of a financial investment a wedding photographer was going to be, I did not take my decision lightly. I reached out to several companies and had several questions when determining who would be the right fit. And I have to say, Marie was by far the most understanding and compassionate during that process. While many photographers seemed annoyed by the (many) questions I would ask before booking, Marie was patient and very thoughtful with her responses -- she even took time to arrange a phone call with me while traveling! And during that phone call, she made sure I didn't feel rushed and that she answered all questions I had fully, it truly felt like I was talking to a friend. That was when I made the decision to book with Marie. Beyond that, when booking the session for our Engagement photos, she brought several creative and adventurous ideas to the table and had the PERFECT locations to take us to. We had a blast together. I would recommend Marie to anyone looking for a photographer who is friendly, compassionate, accommodating and just a joy to be around.

This review is massively long overdue (we got married 5/20/2022), but I absolutely have to write one. Maria and Ricky are hands down the BEST people and we could not have been luckier to have the pleasure of them capturing our wedding! They got exactly the vibes we wanted, all the shots we wanted, were so easy to communicate with, and are just the nicest and most fun people! We did our engagement shoot with them in NYC and the photos could not have been any better. We communicated the types of shots we were looking for and, since they were living there, they were able to give us the best tips for location and shots! Our wedding was better than we could have ever imagined. We got the best posed shots and the absolute best candid shots. We barely even realized the were photographing/taking video of us during the reception which we loved, but we also just loved their presence. They were so much fun and added to the party, they were dancing while shooting and made everyone so happy and comfortable. Our guests still talk about them and how awesome they are! Our video is breathtaking, we are taken back to the day every time we watching and it always brings us to tears. The photos are incredible; we constantly look through our photos and love displaying them in our home to look at all the time. We have since referred several people to them because we would love everyone to have the same experience we had!

Jessica was absolutely amazing and we are incredibly pleased with our decision to use her as our engagement and wedding photographer! She was a great communicator who went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding day went smoothly. Jessica being so organized and on top of things made our wedding experience much less stressful than it otherwise would have been. Neither my husband or I are super comfortable in front of a camera, but Jessica’s directions and attitude put us at ease and made for a very enjoyable experience. Our wedding day went just according to plan, and so so much of that credit goes to Jessica! Taking everything we had spoken about into consideration, she put a wedding day timeline together for us; that was a huge stress relief! Jessica was amazing leading up to the wedding and I couldn’t of been any more pleased. I had so much confidence in Jessica leading up to the wedding day, and she did not disappoint! She was organized, had a plan, and followed it just as we had discussed. When hiccups arose, she was a calming presence who quickly adapted and made the absolute best out of the situation. Now, on to the photos! Jessica is a remarkably talented photographer who captured our wedding day better than we could have imagined. The photos all turned out so good and she was able to capture so many moments that we, as the bride and groom, were not able to witness in the moment. Our couples portraits, wedding party photos, and family photos were stunning. We are also so incredibly grateful for Jessica taking the time to photograph our guests during the reception. She was able to capture every moment with such authenticity; we love to look back at the photos and relive the day. I would whole-heartedly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!!

Hi! I'm Taylor a Georgia based Wedding photographer, mommy, and cheesecake lover. Obsessed with: Family, Naps, and good books. I’ve been keeping it real since 1997. I started my business when I was just 17 years old. Since then I have turned that small hobby into a full time career photographing beautiful couples love stories. Throughout my 8 years in business, I have been lucky enough to photograph over 200 weddings throughout Georgia and the other southern states.

As a wedding officiant, I have the pleasure of working with so many different vendors, photographers in particular, and I can honestly say that Taylor is one of the best! Working with her is always fabulous! Her professionalism, creativity, and dedication to capturing perfect moments and special details are second to none. She puts couples at ease with her easy going nature which helps them to relax around her and act naturally, in turn allowing her to capture a variety of gorgeous shots. During the ceremony itself, she blends seamlessly into the background while effortlessly capturing the essence of the heart of the ceremony. So much so that, as the officiant, I am unaware that she is even there which I think is a perfect approach for that particular part of the wedding day! Taylors work is truly beautiful and her commitment to ensuring her couples have the best possible photography experience attention to detail and commitment to excellence makes her a standout choice for any wedding or special event. I highly recommend Taylor to couples seeking not only beautiful photographs that will serve as lasting memories, but also a stress-free, authentic, personable experience on their big day.

We felt so comfortable from the moment we first met with her and that definitely translated to how easy it felt taking direction from her for our wedding day photos. Her team took time to get to know us and figure out what we were comfortable with so it felt natural (we're not the most comfortable in front of the camera but somehow she figured out how to get those sweet in the moment shots without it feeling forced!). The photos turned out stunning. From the formal portraits to our mountain top vows to the sweetest candids she captured of me and my dad and my adorable nieces and nephews there’s seriously so many amazing photos to choose from. I also appreciated how organized she was with our formal portrait list keeping it quick and everyone ready to move through those as soon as possible. Cannot recommend her enough.

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.

We feel so lucky to have found Andrew as our wedding photographer. He has an incredible eye for the editorial style and makes his photos into works of art with golden light and chiaroscuro. So many photographers just rely on their high-res equipment but don't offer anything more--I don't want a macro shot of every pore or line on my face like an owl in a tree at 100 yards, I want to have a sense of magic and beauty in every photo. Andrew actually does that. I almost cried when I saw our first look photos because I don't feel very confident being photographed and I finally had dozens of photos of myself and my husband that I want to share with friends immediately and cherish forever. He delivered the first look so fast, even though I know he was busy working another wedding; I thought for sure we would have to wait longer. The wedding package we chose included very nice touches like polaroids so we had something in hand at the end of the wedding day itself, too. It was very thoughtful and left us feeling good about the whole experience right away. He was very personal and nice to work with, but not intrusive, and went with the little schedule changes we had, and was open to suggestions while we took post-ceremony photos around the city. I couldn't be happier with our experience with him and would recommend him highly to anyone looking for a real artist for their wedding photography.

This is the part where we tell you: ‘we are strictly documentary style photographers’. Or that we only edit a certain way. Or that we only shoot under certain conditions. But we don’t work that way. We believe that a good photographer isn’t just documentary, or editorial, or candid. We believe a good photographer is ALL of those things, and knows how to read a room, an environment, and a moment to know how best to capture it. And that’s what we try to do. Capture every moment, to the best of our ability.

You can’t go wrong booking with Kayti. She is so good at what she does, you will not be let down. If you’re needing engagement photos, wedding photos, graduation photos, whatever it is, she’s your girl. I say all this but her works speaks for itself!

The rawness of emotion & human connection is what drew me into wedding and portrait photography. I am a storyteller and celebrater for the lighthearted and crazy in love. I focus on capturing authentic photographs that stand the test of time. My goal is to provide couples with one heck of an experience and images that can be cherished for a generations. One of my favorite facts about my style is that I created my own preset from scratch, and that each photo receives the dedicated time it takes to ensure that its final version is its best. The result is beautiful, sentimental photos that preserve meaningful and true-to-life moments.

The pictures were so fun to take and I absolutely LOVE how they came out. Not only that but they didn’t cost me half of my wedding. Annie is very reasonably priced and her photos are exquisite.

Ladonna is so warm and friendly. I love how well she communicated with us prior to our event and on the day of. She was very timely and kept us on the perfect schedule, but we never felt rushed or stressed. She was super easy-going and very accommodating. And we love every picture in our gallery!

Hi! My name is Jacqueline and I've been in the photography industry for almost a decade. I believe that when I pick up my camera, I am there to tell a story. On your wedding day, I am there to document a new chapter of your love story. I capture all the intimate moments of your day, and then some!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot even begin to describe how amazing it was to work with Jacqueline for our wedding this past weekend. She was extremely easy-going, communicative, professional, and always quick to respond for the entire year leading up to our wedding. So it came as no surprise that on our wedding day she absolutely crushed it. She captured our day so seamlessly. She was never in the way, never made us uncomfortable and just blended into the background in all the right ways. She made the wedding party and family photos process quick and painless which I know from experience can sometimes prove to be a disaster or just unorganized and chaotic at weddings. I was even MORE blown away when she delivered some photos the morning after our wedding after probably being up super late after getting home from our wedding. Talk about going above and beyond and exceeding expectations!!! I could not have asked for a better photographer to play such a huge part in our big day and I would recommend Jacqueline to ANYONE. Thank you so much Jacqueline!!!!! - Ben and Lindsay

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!
