Hey!! Thank you for stopping by my page! I love to photograph weddings, but more than anything I like getting to know my clients, their families + their chosen families. I attract many LGBTQIA+ couples because I am an out and proud lesbian and I happen to have the most amazing wife. When I was planning my own wedding, there was a lack of representation in the wedding industry and I knew I needed to be a champion of love. Whether you are apart of the LGBTQIA+ community or you are an ally, I am happy to have you here. Tell me your love story + let me show the world how magical it is.

I am so, so, so happy my husband found GunnShot Photography on Instagram. We loved having Michelle with us during our small elopement. She did a wonderful job guiding us how to pose naturally and got absolutely beautiful shots of us in Yosemite. I am so grateful for the amazing photos she took, how organized and planned out she was, and her help with the smaller details when getting ready for the wedding and help during the day of. Absolutely would recommend her to anyone needing a photographer. We also loved that she had a very diverse (orientation, gender, size) portfolio! LGBTQ friendly, amazing at directing larger bodies.

Plant lover, dog mom, croc rockin', beach cruisin', online shopping photog. You might catch me watching Emily in Paris while snuggled next to our giant lap dogs Lulu and Buddy or traveling the world to inspiring places with my husband (and best friend) Audie. I studied photography at the Academy of Art University in my favorite city by the bay, San Francisco. I continuously develop and modernize my knowledge and experience by utilizing my member resources provided by the Professional Photographers of America (PPA) Association.

Awarded Best of Zola
I found Nicole kind of serendipitously on Instagram - she had commented on a post mentioning that she would love to shoot a wedding at our venue so I sent her a DM to inquire about her services. She was very attentive to answering all my questions and scheduling a call to discuss our wedding and her services. We found her pricing to be very competitive and edged out the other photographers we had been considering. We were excited her package included an engagement shoot and thought it was a good opportunity to build rapport and feel more comfortable having our photos taken before our wedding day. We live a few hours away from our venue and her location but she graciously offered to travel to us for our engagement shoot! We could tell she put a lot of effort into scouting out locations and making the most of our shoot, and she turned our photos around to us so quickly! It was just a few weeks before our wedding so it had us feeling excited and confident that our photos would turn out great. Our wedding day went very smoothly and Nicole was very organized and did a great job! She even came up to me during the wedding to let me know that we might want to reshoot some photos of my dad lifting my veil. I thought that was so considerate! Just like our engagement shoot, I could tell the time and effort she put into scouting out locations and getting all the photos we had asked for. There were a few photos on my shot list that we did not get to do, which obviously we had hoped to have, but I understand my wedding was a very short timeline. We were blown away by the sneak peeks we received just 24 hours after our wedding! And Nicole managed to turn our entire gallery around to us in just 3 weeks. We had friends who got married 6 weeks before us and they were still waiting on their gallery! The gallery is easy to share with friends and family, easy to download and well organized! We really appreciate Nicole for capturing our day so beautifully and giving us photos that we can look back on and love forever! We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer and hope to be able to use her services in the future to capture more seasons of our lives!

Freddy was so sweet, He was not only professional but he made the entire experience effortless on our part which as the Bride & Groom was so amazing. Freddy went above and beyond to make sure everything we wanted was noted down & he made sure to follow through the day of. He made me feel so comfortable while photographing my "getting ready" photos, All of my bridesmaids had requests for photos they wanted to take and he worked well with everyone and was open to ideas/poses we had in mind. Freddy prepared a contract and made sure to answer any questions we had while going over the agreement. As far as pricing I personally think it was great & more cost effective than other photographers I previously looked into.

From start to finish, Carly and Kasey were absolutely amazing! We first met with Carly back in 2018 and booked her for our 2020 wedding. Because if COVID, we changed our date three times and Carly was incredibly flexible and accommodating during the whole process. Her availability calendar being right on her Instagram made it so easy to choose our new date (keeping Carly and Kasey as our photographers was our #1 priority when rescheduling). She quickly sent updated contracts and was just so kind and understanding. Our engagement photo session was fun and Carly made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Some of the images from that session will forever be my favorites of us. When it came time for the wedding, Carly was critical in helping me come up with a timeline. She knew our vision and offered suggestions and locations for pictures. On the actual wedding day, she and Kasey were amazing. We expected it to rain all day so they were super flexible about making last minute changes to the locations and timeline to accommodate the possible rain. The sneak peeks we’ve gotten so far have been perfection and I cannot wait to see the rest! Carly and Kasey are not just exceptionally talented photographers- they are good, kind people. They make you feel comfortable and like you’ve known them your whole life. I could not have imagined better people to know or to take our wedding photos.

Chris Benavidez deserves a perfect five star rating - and deserves all the five star reviews he has received in the past and will receive in the future. Wedding photos are forever, and it's impressive how a one second press of the shutter can lead to a photo which expresses a lifetime of love, memories, celebration, and laughter. Chris makes sure to capture those moments. He is responsive, attentive, detail oriented, timely, and most of all, charismatic. He has an amazing personality and really wants what's best for the couple, and I believe that is expressed in the photos he creates. He will shoot in any location you wish, will take any angle of shot that you wish, and will make sure you are happy with the end result. And trust me, you will be! You know how you always look at your grandparents wedding photos or your parents' wedding photos, or even a friends wedding photos and say "wow thats a good picture"? You will get a thousand of those good pictures with Chris. He will create a set of photos that perfectly captures your special day, and you shouldn't look elsewhere for a photographer. Oh! And he gets on the dance floor with the couple to capture those great moments where everyone is celebrating your love haha! Choose CH Photography and don't think twice about it. He is incredible. Thank you Chris!! - The Dions

We are incredibly grateful Xenia was our engagement/wedding photographer and couldn't be happier with the results! The photos will speak to her technical talent; her professionalism and dedication to her craft are evident in every shot. It was so hard for me to only select 6 photos. What the images don't explicitly show is that Xenia was an absolute joy to work with. She is clear, transparent, and helpful in her communication. Her straightforward and friendly communication ensured we were always on the same page and felt supported throughout the process. While shooting, she is organized and efficient. We got every shot we hoped for and then some. Her enthusiasm and joy were infectious. She made these two awkward nerds feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. We cannot recommend Xenia enough! We will cherish the photos you took forever!

Hello lovely! Let me introduce myself—I’m Sarah. Welcome to my little creative space—I hope you love it here & make yourself at home. My goal as your photographer is to put you at ease and therefore be able to capture your moments authentically and beautifully. As a film and digital photographer ("hybrid" if you will!), I take a big step back to capture your memories with intention, love, and honesty - my promise to you, is to treat your day as if it were my own. Film is my favorite medium to capture wedding days on, as I feel it brings back a level of authenticity, imperfection, and refined elegance that is irreplaceable.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can’t say enough great things about Sarah! She’s a great photographer, but if you are looking for the type of photog to be your ride or die on your wedding day. She’s your girl. Sarah went above and beyond to help my husband and I in what can only be described as a spiral of unfortunate events. We were set to be married in December in Ohio when 11 days from our big day our venue burnt down. Very long story short..we decided to take our family and some of our friends down to the smoky mountains to get eloped to keep our original date because that’s where we got engaged. Sarah was my guardian angel. In less then 10 days She found us a open venue that would give us a time slot for a small ceremony! She put out posts to locals to help me find a hair/makeup team and a videographer on a very limited timeline. She calmed me down when two hair/makeup teams canceled on me the day before and the day of. Not to mention she fought crazy weather (that day the south had the biggest line of tornadoes in history) and literally kept me laughing through every single let down. Her, my best friend and I rode out the craziness of the day together. Most of all through hell and high water..she was there to capture what was left of my original wedding day. So down the road I could have memories to show my kids. And she’s agreed to continue to capture the moments this year at our redo wedding in Ohio. She’s literally the best. She’s not just my photog. She’s a forever kind of friend!

I worked as the day of coordinator for wedding back in March. The original photographer got sick and wasn’t able to work the wedding and had Joyce as her back up. Joyce only had <48 hr notice that she was going to shoot a wedding…and spoiler alert, she did great! Joyce arrived on time and got to shooting right away. She took direction easily and was very flexible. Her turnaround time was great and it felt like we got the album back in no time! While working as a college student and photographer, I highly suggest Joyce!

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.

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.

When an unexpected situation required a substitute photographer, Justina quickly found a great alternate photographer, shared every details for a smooth transition, and still completed all processing and editing.

It's hard to pick favorites but if your wedding includes a dog in the bridal party, a dress with pockets and the cupid shuffle....COUNT ME IN! Among my never-ending list of dream sessions is of course a wedding at Disneyworld and the ultimate outdoorsy engagement session with the wild horses at Shackleford Banks. Don't be surprised when I ask you to add me to your pinterest boards so I can fangirl over your wedding plans.

Whitt Photography and Film were an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding! From our initial consultation to the day of the event, Hannah and Matt were incredibly hospitable, kind, and genuine in their communication. They were always on time and made sure to put us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly outstanding - the photos and videos they captured were beautiful, exciting, and incredibly creative. Hannah and Matt were very intentional in the way they interacted with us and also made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera.

Kathryn Cooper Weddings

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,600
  • Serves San Joaquin, CA

This is delightfully different elopement + wedding photography! From helicopter elopements and lakeside wedding bashes to hiking engagements to weddings with bouncy houses, I capture the adventurous, quirky, and unique. Based in both New York + California, with travel worldwide, I've photographed couples on 6 continents. My creative, fun, & candid photography uses innovative techniques and unique ideas to get photos that make you look twice. Whether you're saying vows in your backyard or having a 3-day adventure wedding in the rainforest, I'll catch every spontaneous moment of joy and laughter—and plan a few unique shots on top of it all.

We cannot recommend Kathryn enough! First (and most obvious) (and also most important) point is that the photos she took were incredible. She captured our night beautifully. More than that though, she captured how the night felt. The photos weren't overly posy, but rather showed off how much fun and excitement there was for the entire night. I think one of the best things I can say about Kathryn is that she really made a point of figuring out HOW we wanted her to photograph the wedding and delivered. As I wrote above, we wanted the photographs to look great, but mostly just capture how the wedding felt and she delivered on that 100%. Also, as much as she made sure we were leading all the decision making, she really knew her stuff and took things off of our plate where we could. We knew how we wanted the photos to look generally, but neither of us are photographers. So we talked to her about style and vibe and she really took it from there. She was an absolute professional, a great person to work with, and kind and caring. We felt like we were in great hands every step of the way. Truly cannot recommend her enough.

As a photographer, my goal is to capture stories in the form of images. Photos have the power to help you relive a specific moment in time and recall all of the emotions and details surrounding that moment. When I work with you on a photo project, my goal is to provide you with photographic records of those moments. I want you to be able to look back at your photos years from today and be able to relive that moment in time.

From the moment we first spoke with this company, we were impressed by their energetic, understanding, and professional communication style. They made taking pictures for our wedding feel more like an enjoyable experience rather than a chore, and we never felt awkward or uncomfortable She has a true talent for capturing beautiful, dreamy, and memorable moments. She knew exactly how to make our dream wedding photos come to life, down to the little details, and the final results exceeded our expectations. We are thrilled with the quality of this great company and the exceptional value they provided. We highly recommend them to any couple looking for a talented, passionate, and personable photography team to capture the magic of their special day.

Heather Blackwood Photography

  • Classic style

  • Serves San Joaquin, CA

Hey, I'm so glad you're here! My name is Heather and I live in beautiful Foresthill, CA. I love any and all hard seltzers, my Great Dane Fritz, and using my camera to capture all the feels. About my business? Well I'm basically a professional wedding crasher, so you know you will always have fun with me! Oh and I've pretty much cried at every wedding I've ever been to...and yours is no exception. Let's be friends!

Heather was wonderful to work with! We are the awkward type in front of a camera, but working with Heather made everything seem so stress-free during our wedding planning and photo sessions. Our engagement photo session was fun and care-free and we unbeknownst to all of us, she actually ended up taking beautiful photos of our beautiful rabbit, Trixie before she passed on the following month. Something that we truly appreciated and will never forget. For our wedding, Heather was very detailed and gave us a run down of what to expect for the photos. Nothing was hidden and she was up front about it all and asked if we wanted to add anything as well. Although Mother Nature had other plans for the day, we were still able to get the majority of our photos done. She even snuck in polaroid photos that were just too adorable - And I have no idea when she even took them! We received our wedding photos back and everyone absolutely loves them. I just love her style. While there are some photographers who do a large amount of filter/presets (no shade to those who do), there's just something about Heather's style of being able to keep it clean and natural that I just love! With Mother Nature having other plans with making it a misty ceremony and a downpour reception, we did miss out on doing a handful of photos of cocktail hour. Because of that, Heather was quick to offer us a bridal session to take some additional photos to complete our wedding. Instead of returning to the venue, we actually decided to relocate to Fort Bragg and take photos at the Mendocino Garden. The photos turned out absolutely gorgeous with the oceanic background and the dahlias that she chose to work with. She made everything seem so light-hearted and there was so much laughter with each session. Thank you Heather for everything you did throughout our wedding planning and so much more. You've captured so many wonderful moments and we couldn't have asked for a better photographer!

I am a luxury destination photographer based in MICHIGAN, COLORADO & FLORIDA! I am ALL over Michigan and all over the nation! I have a home in Lansing, Holland & Traverse City. I travel all over Michigan capturing my clients from Lansing to Grand Rapids to the west coast of Lake Michigan to Mackinac Island & Traverse City to all metro Detroit! I have a second home in Vail/Summit County, CO as well as Clearwater Beach/Tampa. This allows me to be local to multiple places and states! This career is so much more than just showing up and taking photos. It's emotion, it's detail, it's getting to know my clients and capturing each of them uniquely.

Dani helped us with choosing our elopement location in Colorado! She listened to our must-haves for our location and provided us a list of options with info on permits and everything. She made the elopement process so easy! We picked our location off her advice :) We also had snow hit the day of our elopement and since it was just my husband & I plus the photographers, (Dani & Jed), she let us adjust our elopement time to get the best experience in the elements. They also followed my husband & I to our restaurant where we had dinner and took some amazing candid photos our first dinner as husband and wife. Such an incredible team and incredible experience. Hiring them was the best decision we made when we decided to elope!!
