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.

Franzi Annika Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $8,999
  • Serves Payson, AZ for additional fees

Welcome to Franzi Annika Photography, where elegance meets the artistry of visual storytelling. We are Franzi and Martin – a husband-wife duo. While our European roots shape our style, our dedication to the art of photography is what guides us. Through our in-the-moment, meticulous focus on the finer details, we create a collection of genuine narratives preserved on film. These photographs will continue to reflect the emotional depth of your celebration for generations to come.

You won’t find photographers more skilled or personable than Franzi and Martin! They photographed our engagement in Charleston, SC, rehearsal dinner and wedding in Boston, MA. We cannot recommend them highly enough for your next engagement session, wedding, or event! Working with them was a dream and we feel so lucky to have met them. First, if you took all the photography away, Franzi and Martin will enhance your wedding day just by being a part of it. They are warm, funny and fit right in with the gals/guys and families. They also got along and coordinated so well with our venue, floral designer and planner - everyone loved working with them. We all felt so comfortable around them and this is reflected in the natural, beautiful photos. They are also incredibly professional, prepared and organized. The morning of the wedding, they had already scouted and planned all of the locations for the first look, family and bridal party photos, and husband/wife shots. We didn’t have to do or think about a thing in terms of photos the entire day - we just followed their lead! During the ceremony and reception, they were so subtle in taking their photos. We were able to enjoy the day without it feeling like a photoshoot. The photos were simply stunning. We have gotten so many compliments on how unique and personal our photos are. Most importantly, they feel like us, because Franzi and Martin got to know us throughout this process. We had such a hard time putting together an album because we had too many favorites to choose from! One of the guiding values for choosing our wedding vendors was to find true artists who are passionate about their craft and then trust them to work their magic. Franzi and Martin are just that - artists. We wanted them to have complete creative control and freedom and would encourage everyone who works with them to do the same - your photos will be gorgeous, and your wedding day memories will be made better because Franzi and Martin were there.

Hey there! I'm Arianna. I started Rare Raven Studio (previously McCormick Design and Photography) back around 2013. I had grown up around cameras and always loved whatever I could get my hands on. Film, digital, video, you name it. It wasn't until I had my daughter that I really started taking anything seriously though. All of the sudden, I had a reason to stay consistent in my documentation. The rest is pretty much history. A few of my favorite things: Darth Vader, the Space Jam soundtrack, traveling, DC comics, Mac & Cheese, chicken marsala, more cheese, serial killer and mythology podcasts, and allll the doggos!

Awarded Best of Zola
Arianna was great and every picture was beautiful! She is very easy to work with and communicative. We live in Chicago, and she was willing to travel from IN and walk around the Lake Front to capture the most beautiful engagement photos. The day of the wedding was perfect; you barely knew she was there, but I'm an amazing photographer way. I loved all candid photos, and the EVERYONE loved the photo booth. Overall, Arianna makes the process so easy and chill, which I needed. You won't regret booking her services!

I’m Terra, and I’m obsessed with love stories. If you’re in Utah, or really anywhere in the world and you’re planning a wedding or elopement or ready to marry the love of your life next weekend – we should chat. When a hopeless romantic becomes an wedding photographer… you know you’re going to get meaningful, intimate photos. Those perfect little moments – when you look into each other’s eyes, break into peals of laughter, or can’t help but hold each other close – those are the moments I capture. And I’d love to help you tell your love story forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
Terra did an amazing job photographing our elopement. After seeing Terra's portfolio, I knew I wanted to hire her. From the moment I spoke with her on the phone to the day of our elopement she was super quick to respond if I had any questions or wanted to make last minute changes. Our photos ended up beautiful and adventurous, which is exactly what we were looking for! My fiance and I are no pros in front of the camera and Terra made us feel at ease and did a great job directing us. I am constantly getting told our photos are so beautiful they belong in a magazine and I know that's only because we hired Terra! Hands down, hiring Terra was one of the easiest and best choices! HIRE HER and thank me later!

I love mexican food, cats (and dogs!), and iced coffee. Books are my best friends, and I also double as a yoga teacher when I'm not doing photography related things. I have a weird obsession with fuzzy socks and I prefer movies over TV shows. Now on to the typical things you want to know about my journey in photography...I got my first camera in 2009 and basically haven't put it down since! I studied photography at Savannah College of Art and Design and started my freelance photography career when I graduated in 2016!

She is the most talented and down-to-earth photographer and person! She was a breeze to work with and I never had a worry about her. She delivered the best pictures and her style fit mine perfectly! I am so so so happy we went with her and now my husband and I have our photographer for life!

  • Classic style

  • Serves Payson, AZ for additional fees

Featured on Today show and Wedding Day Magazine. I believe everyone deserves to have life's biggest moments captured on camera. But photos turn into heirlooms when the moments are documented in a way that feels absolutely authentically you. No forced emotions, no fake smiles, and certainly no awkward prom-pic poses. Whether you’re dressed to the nines on the day of your wedding or, the dirty white dress that spent more time on the dance floor than the altar let’s capture the authentic you and have a damn good time doing it.

It’s hard to put into words how incredible Mary is. From the moment we booked her, we knew we had made the right choice. Mary meticulously crafted mood boards, timelines and provided invaluable advice from the engagement shoot to the wedding. She has a warm and vibrant spirit that makes you feel comfortable and excited. We found many times throughout the wedding day we felt most calm with Mary while taking pictures. You won’t find another photographer like her, willing to go the extra mile to deliver a vision. We cannot thank Mary enough for our beautiful photos. They are mementos of a perfect day we will cherish forever.

I'm just a suburban girl who decided to turn her dreams into a reality. I'm all about building relationships and connections. After all, that's what wedding photography is all about. I do this job every weekend because I'm one of those people that is obsessed with pictures. Not just for a living, but for myself. I understand the value in photography. I do this for people who are just like me. For the ones who cherish those photos hanging on the walls. The photos still in that purple glitter album from 2002 of you and your friends in Limited Too. Those memories are all we have from the anchors that built us. Photos are proof that we have lived

Awarded Best of Zola
Lauryn is not only a spectacular photographer, but her organization and lively personality make working with her for your wedding such a great experience. We were nervous about engagement photos as neither of us are super comfortable in front of a camera, but she made us feel at ease, knowing exactly how to guide us and make us feel natural. We are a type-A couple, so Lauryn's professional platform was another huge benefit to working with her. Lauryn's portal houses all your information, she sends regular check lists and questionnaires to ensure she has everything she needs and is extremely communicative. This made us feel so supported throughout the planning process. Lastly, on our wedding day she was such a pleasure have with us. She corralled our friends and family to get things done efficiently without sacrificing quality--allowing us to enjoy our big day to the fullest. We received a sneak peek within a few days, and the full 1,000 images in less than 2 weeks. And they were STUNNING. We couldn't stop reliving our wedding day through her photography, and we'll forever be grateful for Lauryn's talent.

Amber Garrett Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Payson, AZ for additional fees

I found my passion early in life and was crazy enough to pursue the idea of sharing it with the world. I don’t believe in such a thing as “too much” when it comes to expressions of love – especially when it’s a wedding! I earned my bachelors and masters degrees in photojournalism from the University of Missouri, *cough cough* known as the best journalism school in the nation. Throughout my schooling, I trained closely with award-winning photojournalists Rita Reed and David Rees, and I’ve worked with organizations like the Washington Post and USA Today. In my limited spare time, you can find me hiking in the mountains or eating Del Taco.

Working with Amber was an incredible decision. She is so talented and beyond kind. We first met Amber virtually and instantly connected to her. While we were planning on a couples shoot, my now fiancé and her were in cahoots for him to propose. She had even brought a bottle of bubbly to take cute pictures and celebrate! Amber was incredibly communicative, excited, and kind. Beyond a photographer, she is a hype woman and a wealth of knowledge/advise that she's more than willing to share. She sent sneak peeks 30 minutes after the shoot! And they were nothing short of MAGIC. I was at the edge of my seat for the full set, which she delivered EARLY. While taking photos, she captured romance, excitement, and even our goofiness. I can't recommend her enough.

Lotus Photography

  • Serves Payson, AZ for additional fees

My passion for photography grew when my daughter, Lotus, was born in 2004 and I began documenting her childhood with an eye toward catching each irreplaceable moment. Soon, friends and then friends of friends asked me to photograph their children and families. Before long, I was documenting the lives and milestones of people all over the DMV area. I realized how happy I was connecting with people and capturing special moments, and so I launched Lotus Photography in 2012 - named for my first muse. I fell in love with capturing weddings in 2017 and I have been hooked ever since!

I highly, highly recommend Georgette with Lotus Photography. She is the sweetest, most joyful, gifted photographer and as an event planner and day-of wedding coordinator I genuinely love working with her. She is sweet, bubbly, kind, and incredibly talented. 11/10 recommend!!

I’m a high school English teacher, so all of that time I spend wrangling teenagers and getting them to do work helps me out when I’m directing your wedding party for photos. I love being a teacher, and I love the flexibility it gives me to pursue another passion of mine: photography.

From the beginning, his communication was fast, friendly, and personal - he really took the time to understand our vision and preferences. On the day of the wedding, he was fun, funny, and completely professional, capturing all the special moments seamlessly. The quality of his work was exactly what we wanted - the photos are stunning and perfectly reflect the joy and beauty of our day. We couldn't be happier with Jason Verdin Photography and would recommend him to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nadeen's artistic eye, natural talent and knowledge of photography created the most magical wedding and engagement photos we ever could have asked for, completely exceeding our expectations! We worked with Nadeen for about 8 months in 2023 leading up to our September wedding in Big Sur, CA. She was kind enough to meet us in person 7 months before the wedding for engagement photos (even on a rainy/windy day in Big Sur!) which helped us get to know her and become more comfortable with what to expect for being photographed on the actual wedding day. Nadeen did a great job guiding us on how to look natural for our photos and made us feel super comfortable being photographed. On our wedding day, Nadeen was there every step of the way and captured our day beautifully. It was a pleasure to have her there and she did a great job of keeping us on track, making sure we captured all photos we wanted, and even took us on an extra special excursion to a separate location for sunset photos. From the wedding shots, to the priceless candids, stunning detail shots, and variety of natural light, flash, black and white photos, every single image was taken with thought and love and turned out beautifully. We had the best time working with and getting to know Nadeen. It felt like we were just hanging out with friends! Cannot recommend Nadeen enough for your wedding, engagement or any other event where you may be looking for a photographer!

I’m a husband to my high school sweetheart, I’m a dad to three gorgeous little girls, and I love my city of Costa Mesa, CA. Me in a nutshell...good coffee, bacon, and whiskey are my jam. A perfect day off consists of a mountain bike ride, some tacos, and swimming in our pool with my wife and daughters. I spent over 8 years in jobs that sucked the life out of me, but now I have one that breathes life back into me. You see, photography is not my identity…but it's definitely an extension of how I was created to see life. And I got into capturing meaningful moments because I am all about the life behind the moment, not just the event.

If you are looking for your photographer to create beautiful, fine art images that you can look back on years to come and remember how you felt just by looking at a picture, I think we're a perfect fit! I'm here for the relationships and memories that matter and to capture all of your real moments that make your life so amazing! Working with me is knowing your final product speaks to who you are as a couple (as well as gaining a friend for life). I'm not just your wedding photographer..I'm your forever photographer! Ready for your next step? Check out our packages and message me to chat and start planning!

Rachel and her team made our stressful and busy day absolutely wonderful, and now that we have our photos back, there is no denying that they were THE standout of all of those that we booked! The only thing that I would change is that she now has a new addition of a content creator that I have no doubt would be amazing! Our package included film and polaroids and Super 8 for Wedding Day and the night before. From a boudoir session in her amazing studio, a Welcome Dinner on a sailboat, different getting ready locations and all around our venue, each part was unique! Getting ready, first touch, the ceremony, cocktail hour, portraits, reception, and golden hour each have a unique different focus, which I absolutely love. The polaroids were an amazing touch, and the different types of film were such a vibe! I could not ask for more to have captured our memories and make them feel timeless! Of all of the research I had attempted to do to look for a photographer, Rachel was perfect and surpassed expectations! She and her team were flexible, experienced, professional, and have tremendous range. It was so evident that they put in work before the events to know what we were looking for. She even has great recommendations for other vendors and her connections show how well respected she is. Rachel also has a wonderful personality that seems to click with anyone. Rachel was wonderful to work with from the start. She had clear and consistent communication and it’s obvious that she is professional that loves what she does, and through our multiple sessions I had no doubt that she had our best interest in mind and was happy to be behind the camera and supporting us. The team was constantly multi-tasking, aware of what was going on, caused no concerns for us, but also always seemed to be in the right place at the right moment. She and her team were more than familiar with our timeline, what we wanted most out of the day, and needed no reminders, and as things will inevitably happen, they were quick to adjust with a smile. Time goes by so quickly during the events, and she and her team were always prepared and making what we had hoped and planned for happen! After our initial inquiry, Rachel responded quickly and we scheduled a video call, during which she was super engaged and attentive! We could tell that she really listened to what we shared we were looking for and seemed genuinely excited for what we were planning and happy to be a part of it. Her service guide and contract were clear and so were expectations. My husband and I could tell from the start that she not only had a great eye but had the business part of what she does down as well. There wasn’t a single instance during the period of time we worked together that I had doubts or felt on edge about our decision to go with her or that the end product from her team would be lacking. She checked in often and asked for a detailed questionnaire and mood board not only as a part of the inquiry, but also closer to the day which I loved as over months and months of planning things do shift and change. They did a great job of capturing candid moments and getting group shots. They were somehow able to let us enjoy the experience but also get those specific shots we’d requested. They were able to make each part of the day fun, memorable, and unique. We are so happy to say that we have traditional family portraits, candid, and even photos that look editorial!

My name is Haley Wilde and I am a digital and 35mm film photographer based in Southern California. I specialize in all things surrounding love because I am a sucker for a good old fashioned love story. I would absolutely love to not only capture you love, but truly celebrate alongside you. I was a wedding planner for 3+ years prior to photography, so my knowledge and genuine passion for the wedding industry and serving my couples sets me apart from other photographers!

Awarded Best of Zola
I'm picky with my photos and Haley delivered the most beautiful photos I've ever seen in my life. Our engagement photos were delivered quickly, regardless of what was happening in her personal life. She was so professional and communicated everything was us. When I saw the sneak peeks of our wedding photos, I felt like I was taken back to our wedding day and I fell in love again. They were so timeless and you can feel the emotion through the photos. Thank you Haley for making our wedding day full of joy and happiness.

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.

Cody was brilliant! I could not recommend him enough. I’m usually very camera anxious and hate my picture being taken so having a photographer follow me around for an entire day would typically be my nightmare. However, Cody made me so comfortable and was such a calming energy. I LOVE how our photos turned out and my husband and I look so natural and fantastic in every picture! My only complaint it how I’m going to be able to decide which ones to frame for my walls…I may need more walls!

Amelie Black Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves Payson, AZ for additional fees

Thank you for being here! My name is Amelie and I am extremely passionate about capturing intimate love stories. I love collaborating with my couples to create unique, meaningful galleries that reflect the most important moments of their days. I would describe my style as candid, emotional, dreamy, fun, and documentary-style.

From the minute that Amelie arrived at the venue, she was professional, helpful, creative, and kind. She is incredibly skilled not only at taking beautiful and artistic photographs, but also in managing the dynamics of the wedding event. My husband and I are not super comfortable in front of the camera but taking a walk with Amelie to get some solo shots was organic and effortless. We just received some preview photos, and both her photo composition and editing captured our wedding perfectly. Without being asked, she took on many more roles than just the photographer: timekeeper, dress bustler, calm creator, and creative director. She somehow seemed to be in several places at once and was always an arm distance away when a photo opportunity arrived. She scouted beautiful places for my husband and I to take solo photos, instructed the officiant on where to best stand so our ceremony photos would look good, and remembered every single special shot that we requested prior to the event. Hiring Amelie was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding, and I can’t recommend her enough. We will certainly be recommending her to all our friends and family.

I'm not here for insta-worthy moments. I'm going to capture the wind in your hair and sand on your feet. I will photograph you dancing in the pouring rain and laughing at the cake you just smashed in your partner's face. Life is messy and beautiful, joyful and sentimental. I don't believe in perfection, but I do believe in perfect for you.

Natalie was amazing from the beginning. She did a great job communicating with us throughout the planning process and was always very responsive. She gave us great advice on the timeline for our day. She also gave us wonderful ideas on where to shoot our photos while also always wanting our input and ideas. She made our wedding day so easy and really went above and beyond. Now, the pictures. I couldn't have imagined they would turn out so well. The angles, style, editing are amazing. I can't stop looking at them. Beautiful end result. Choose Kansla if you want a dependable, professional experience with incredible photos of your special day.

We do Photo+Video Teams primarily - see more team samples on our "Videographers" page on Zola! I love "storytelling" in shooting and creative editing - creating not just a photo/video record, but adding sparkle, brightness and engaging polish to edits, design elements, fx and dialog/music mixing to build a more grand and exciting "mood" and story. It's great being part of "The Best Day Ever!" for most couples, along with learning and exploring new events, supporting my client's excitement and creativity and energy ;)

Jeff and all the Photo/Video Guys/Gals Teams at OurWeddingPhotoVideo.com are great storytellers and creatives! Jeff and our crew went the extra mile, both in documenting the day and event and weaving together such great engaging photo and video memories - full of laughs and tears for their families and friends! Loved the images, prints, galleries and films, and such quick turnaround! Two thumbs up! Be sure to "Get the Team!" - Monica and Caio

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Payson, AZ for additional fees

As a hopeless romantic with a fondness for all things vintage, I specialize in capturing timeless photos of the details and moments celebrating the love of your day. Utilizing natural light as much as possible as to not create an artificial mood, I consider my style to be photojournalistic, with a relaxed, natural feeling, even during formal portraits. Overly staged portraits and calculated setups aren't really my jam. After the party's over, my work continues, using post-processing software like Lightroom and Photoshop, ensuring you and your photos look their best and unique!

Awarded Best of Zola
Carrie is amazing! She did a wonderful job for our engagement and wedding photos. We are not used to having our photos taken and she made us feel so comfortable and relaxed. It was very hectic the morning of my wedding and she was very organized and patient with all of us. We are so happy and grateful with the memories she captured and we highly recommend hiring her as your engagement and wedding photographer!

After 10 years of shooting I can tell you happily that I still think I somehow got away with having the best job in the world. I adore being able to photograph the moments of life that make it worth living. Weddings, birth, family, there are concentrated amounts of love in these moments and being able to give someone a way to hold on to that visually is absolutely wonderful.

Christy is a true professional - she is meticulous, creative, and a master of her craft. She captured my husband and I so authentically for both our engagement and wedding photos. She and her team were responsive, professional and accommodating from start to finish. Christy remained calm and composed despite the summer heat, family chaos, and various photo requests throughout the night. She made us the priority and ensured we felt comfortable and taken care of. We intend to hire her a million more times for life events worth capturing! Can’t recommend her enough.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Payson, AZ for additional fees

I am a documentary wedding photographer -- I'm all about capturing real moments. In my photographs, I’m always shooting with an eye for color, light, and dynamic shadows. I integrate these technical aspects with my background in film, literature and storytelling so with every wedding, I create a series of documentary photos that recreates the authentic narrative of a day. I’m always chasing the candid, the emotional, even the un-noticed everyday details; things that make you do a double take, little moments that make your heart swell.

Awarded Best of Zola
We approached Rebecca for her photojournalistic photography, something we explicitly wanted in our wedding because we wanted those natural moments captured without looking awkward, and she astonished us by capturing so many sentimental and hilarious parts throughout our wedding. From framing to editing, the photos turned out fantastic and we love them so much! You can see raw emotion, joy, and amazement throughout them. She truly captured the feelings of the day without making us feel overly posed and orchestrated; she made it all feel natural and sometimes even seemed to disappear out of sight (although the photos prove she was there all along). She truly is an artist! We also appreciated Rebecca and Stephanie getting onto the dance floor and grooving with us while capturing hilarious moments. We highly recommend Rebecca if you want authentic, beautiful photos from someone who understands how to include cultural and personal values in your special event!
