Love Knot Photography

  • Editorial style

  • Serves Salem, OR

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
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

I can’t think of a better way to spend my days. As someone who is married, I deeply understand how significant and special a wedding day truly is.

My style is rooted in an editorial approach, allowing me to narrate your unique love story through timeless images that highlight genuine emotions. As your photographer, I bring a heartfelt and genuine perspective, ensuring that your wedding day is portrayed in a way that truly reflects you and preserves the memories you'll cherish forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so happy we chose Lucia to capture our elopement. Lucia is professional, fast to respond to emails and texts, helpful with decisions, accommodating to any requests, concerns, and excited to give advice. Duncan and I really wanted our photographer to capture our true emotion and to get candids of us, and Lucia DID THAT! The day felt blissful and a key point for us was that we got to enjoy the day without it feeling solely like a photoshoot which I think speaks to Lucias talent and confidence in her craft. She was good at giving guiding advice for posing without us feeling posed. I put together a Pinterest board and shot list which she really did a great job pulling inspiration from. The photos are stunning and the exact style we envisioned. Also, our sneak peak was huge and she got them to us very fast. If you are torn between photographers or are just starting your research, you're in very safe hands to stop here. We hope to continue reaching out to Lucia in the future when we start a family.

We're Hunter and Lindsey Wickert! We're a husband and wife photographer team based out of Vancouver, Washington! We love doing what we do best— we make your photos feel like your memories. Whether that means walking along the beach near Haystack Rock in Cannon Beach with you, snow-shoeing up at the foot of Mt. St. Helens for your Engagement Photoshoot, following you down the aisle in some of our gorgeous Pacific Northwest scenery, or playing in piles of leaves for your beautiful family photos and getting those magical shots. We want you to be able to look back at our work and feel exactly how you felt the moment we took them.

Awarded Best of Zola
Lindsey and her husband are amazing. So far we've only done our engagement shoot and it was honestly so much fun. My fiance and I have never gotten professional photos taken so we were both a bit nervous but by the end of it, we felt like models. They are so lovely to talk to and not one moment felt awkward or weird. We had the wonderful opportunity to take our pictures at Mt. Rainer and the pictures turned out BEAUTIFUL. She did a fantastic job overall and even brought bug spray for us (my gosh the mosquitos were insane haha). We received our photos faster than I thought and with any change/adjustment I wanted to make she was on top of it. I'll be back after the wedding to share more, but I can't recommend her enough.

Photographing a couple's love story is something I never take for granted. It is an honor & privilege to create art for my couples. My absolute favorite thing to do is illustrate your love story, your adventure, your favorite memories. Let's create some magic!

Not only did she make us feel incredibly comfortable during the personal shots, but she caught moments in which I was completely unaware of her presence.

As a professional wedding photographer based in South Florida, I specialize in capturing the genuine essence of love.

Whether it's capturing love while exploring mountainous terrain, enjoying sunsets, or strolling lakeside, I find inspiration in every moment. Alongside my photography pursuits, I enjoy spending quality time boating, dining, and cherishing moments with my little family. I photograph weddings in Florida, across the US, and Internationally.

We hired Shelby as our wedding photographer and just received our full gallery - wow! We are blown away with the sweet and meaningful moments that she captured. Not only were momentous times photographed, but she made a point to photograph for our family and friends, as well. We can tell that Shelby likes to be behind the lens and capture the moments that feel great to the client, so we’re able to truly relive such a perfect day! There are way too many photos that we’d like to frame / we’re going to have to make a full wedding album! Note: Shelby’s flash work is incredible! Our ceremony was during sunset so all of our cocktail & reception shots are only lit by string lights - if you have a darker venue or a night time wedding, Shelby is your girl!!!!

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
