Welcome to Arie T. Photography, a black queer woman-owned and operated traveling portrait and wedding photography service based out of the Georgia and Michigan! I've had the honor of capturing all walks of life across the USA with hopes of taking it worldwide.

One of the best wedding decisions we made was booking Arie's photography services. Arie's energy, professionalism, and eye for detail are truly unmatched! Staying in constant communication with us from the day we booked, the regular check-ins were extremely helpful and reassuring in the chaos of wedding planning. By the time we met in person it felt like we had known Arie for years. On our wedding day she brought a calm and upbeat energy which made her a joy to have in the bridal and groom suites while we prepped for the ceremony. During our very lively reception Arie seemed to be everywhere at once, capturing every detail we asked for and so many more. The way Arie seamlessly moved throughout the events prompted our guests to ask if she worked for the venue! She came extremely prepared, was extremely professional, and it showed. Arie is truly an artist who not only took and produced beautiful photos, but managed to capture our vibe. We are so grateful to have found Arie and will DEFINITELY be booking services for our future events!

Hire Kate as your wedding photographer!! Kate was one of our absolute favorite vendors from our wedding and the day truly wouldn't have been the same or gone they way it did without her. From the initial meeting, to the check-ins, and the day-of, Kate was so kind and so professional. We had Kate photograph our welcome event the day before our wedding and it was a great way to get us and our guests comfortable before our big day. On the day of the wedding, we got so many compliments about Kate from the wedding party and our families. She made sure everyone knew where they needed to be, how to pose, and was so efficient with family photos before our ceremony. After the wedding, we received SO many sneak peeks within a week of the wedding and it was so fun getting to relive the day through her beautiful photography.

Brittany was beyond amazing on our wedding day. She is fun with lots of energy and she listened to everything that I wanted. My husband and I are terrible with being photographed and Brittany just accepted our awkward and ran with it. Brittany's professionalism and attention to detail was inspiring and much appreciated. She kept me sane and on track the entire day and even advocated for me when I was too anxious to do so myself. Our photos are stunning and far exceeded my expectations. The gallery is simple to access and share. I was happy to see that it is also organized by the type of picture and time of day. It was also very easy to favorite and order any photos that I wanted. Overall, the entire experience that we had with Paint My Mind Photography was absolutely outstanding and I am very excited to work with Brittany again.

What if your photos actually looked and felt like you? Picture yourself 10 years from now on your wedding anniversary looking back at your wedding album with tears welling up in your eyes as you relive your day. Your wedding should not feel like a performance. Let go of boring wedding traditions, think outside of the box and create something unique that has never been done before. Whatever the perfect day looks like for you, why shouldn’t that be your wedding day? I am more than your wedding photographer, I am your guide, biggest fan, and the curator of your love story, I will also be the one tearing up from behind my lens.

Danielle was professional, warm, and knowledgeable. She guided us through every step of our day and weathered through unexpected torrential downpours and hurricane winds all while keeping morale up for the whole wedding party! Danielle took the time to get to know what we wanted and needed from her and her intuition filled in the parts that we didn’t even know we needed. Loved Danielle, Love love love our photos, couldn’t 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.

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.

Hey, how cool of you to give me a few minutes of your time. I am not here 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 story in all its imperfect glory, say something, let's make it happen.

We cannot say enough positive things about Sweet Lime Photography! Loy was an absolute pleasure to work with. He suggested ideas that he felt would look great as well as listened to what we wanted to capture.

Hi friend! Grace here. I’m from a small town in south-central PA, where I was raised on the great outdoors, drive-in movies, & board games. My husband is my best friend & we have an adorable toddler keeping us on our toes! We're all about Jesus, our people, traveling, coffee shops & our two Aussies. I’m a big advocate of seeing new places, deep talks under the stars & being near the mountains any chance I can get. I believe that marriage begins with a promise & a lifetime of memories follow after that. My clients are my friends & I feel privileged to begin this adventure with you!

I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. She was sooo easy to work with. Her visions aligned with mine, she was efficient and so sweet. I truly trusted her with everything in me and she did not disappoint! She traveled across the country for us and was a 10/10 human being and professional photographer. You need her!!

If your wedding is out of state I would love to come to you. I have always found joy in taking photos.

Cecilia captured our wedding day at Brighton Resort in the mountains. She was so personable and really got to know my fiance and I. She listened to what we wanted and delivered plus so much more! She was even dancing on the dance floor to drum up excitement and capture our friends' energy. I would book her again 10 times over! Best decision!

We are David and Rachel McKissic, the owners and photographers. We have been in business for 9 eventful years in Indianapolis, and beyond. We took a risk with no experience, a love for art, and a love for love. We made this decision after we said "I do". We were going to buy a couch but we opted to chase a dream. We are still chasing that dream and capturing so many amazing moments along the way. We have 3 wonderful children who are the fuel of our lives' drive. I (Rachel) am a lover of detail and David lives life on the edge. Together, we are a complementary couple and you'll definitely sense it when you work with us! Let's connect!

Awarded Best of Zola
It was an absolute pleasure to work with Rachel and David on and leading up to our wedding day! From the moment I logged on to our first consultation with Rachel I knew we were in good hands. Her process for working with us was clear, straightforward, and attentive to detail. We were so glad that we were able to work with both Rachel and David and that they were willing to travel to South Bend, IN at a very reasonable cost. They were able to demonstrate poses together and each brought their own warmth and creativity to the shoot. They gave excellent directions and were exceptionally kind and patient with our family. The results are absolutely stunning - crisp, classic photos that celebrate our loved ones and even the smallest details of our wedding day! Our family and friends can't say enough about how wonderful they were to work with and how much they love the photos. We agree - we can't recommend Those McKissics highly enough!

My name is Jaslyn Elizabeth, I am a wife, mother, photographer and makeup artist. I have been doing photography since I was 15 but, it was always scenic photography. I got into taking photos for people in 2020 and have fallen in love! I am a super shy person when you first meet me so, I never knew I had what it took to take people's photos. Once I get behind that camera though, it all goes away. I absolutely love it, I love getting to go exploring with my clients and capturing their most precious memories. Being able to put your love for each other into a photo is my dream and I am lucky I get to do just that.
