I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories.

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.

Vogue Party vibes to intimate adventure elopements and everything in between! Any of my clients will tell you I say "We're not photographers we are storytellers" and that is my main goal when capturing your moments. I have a strong lean toward editorial-style shooting and maintaining gorgeous skin tones. I've been shooting weddings and elopements around the country for the last 8 years and have fallen in love with serving my clients not just on the big day but also leading up to it. I shoot with natural light primarily but don't shy away from some good flash when the vibes call for it! Cheers, David

Ashley Guice Creative is a Phoenix-based luxury wedding photographer with a passion for capturing the beauty of human connection. Since 2017, Ashley Guice has been creating stunning images that blend artistic flair with genuine emotion. With over seven years of experience in photography and a decade-long background in the arts, she brings a unique perspective to every event she covers.

We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Ashley! From start to finish, she was an absolute joy to work with. Her attention to detail and creativity truly brought our vision to life, capturing every moment beautifully. We had an unfortunate cancellation of our original venue, and with our new venue having a completely different look, Ashley was a great thought partner in scouting locations and helping us achieve the look and feel in our photos that we were going for. Despite the challenges of a venue change and the usual wedding planning craziness, Ashley remained positive, resourceful, and was also just down right fun to work with! Ashley is a true artist, dedicated to the artful execution of every detail. Nothing felt cookie-cutter or ordinary—she took the time to understand our vision and how we wanted to remember the day and then actualized it through her artistic lens. I wanted something artful, chic, and elevated but also real, candid, and documentary-style—and Ashley delivered exactly that. She was also fantastic at understanding how we wanted to be photographed throughout the day. More than anything, she made sure our enjoyment of the day was a priority over just "getting the perfect shot," which was crucial for us. We were able to enjoy every moment, and the photos capture that perfectly. Her team was amazing, too! We got to work with two of her assistant photographers, and they were just as supportive and friendly as Ashley. We would recommend AGC to any couple looking for a photography team who is dedicated to capturing the essence of your wedding in a way that feels unique, personal, and meaningful. - L & L

As someone who spends most of my time BEHIND the lens (I'm also a photographer) I was a little nervous getting in FRONT of it for our couples session... Shannon immediately crushed those nerves with her energy, excitement, and direction. My husband and I had an absolute BLAST frolicking around the Oregon Coast with her during our sunrise session. We had the privilege of getting to know Shannon and her husband in the days prior to our session and all I can say is they are such beautiful people - inside and out. The moments she captured for us are so true to who we are and I am forever grateful to have these memories.

Matthew took our wedding photos back in February 2024 and we could not have asked for a better photographer. Before the wedding we had several calls and he made sure he knew how the day was going to run and what type of photos we wanted him to prioritize. We really wanted a lot of candid moments of us and our family and Matthew delivered! He captured some amazing and beautiful moments from our ceremony and many fun moments from our reception as well a little details that we did not have time to appreciate because we were so busy being the “bride and groom” in the moment! We are finally taking some time to print our photos and looking back through our gallery makes us feel like we are reliving our beautiful day over and over again. Thank you Matthew for capturing so many beautiful moments that we will look back on and cherish for the rest of our lives.

Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship.

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.

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 was super easy to work with, we just had a few video calls before the big day. During our wedding he and his team captured the full ceremony and reception videos as we'd asked, including all the details and kind words that friends had for us.

I’ve developed a love for traveling across the United States, and I’m excited to expand my adventures internationally in December 2024. I’m passionate about capturing that best friend type of love—the real, raw, and candid moments that make your relationship unique. On your wedding day, my focus is on documenting your authentic selves, from those emotional first looks to cozy moments during golden hour. And I’m all about the pops of color!

From the very first moment I met Kiersten, I knew she was the perfect choice to document our wedding. Her warm and engaging personality made us feel completely at ease, allowing us to truly enjoy every moment of our special day. The way she captures the essence of a moment is nothing short of magical. Her romantic style effortlessly highlights the love and joy shared between us and our guests. Each photograph tells a beautiful story, filled with emotion and grace. We were especially impressed by her ability to capture candid moments, turning fleeting seconds into cherished memories that we will treasure forever. Her attention to detail and genuine passion for their craft are evident in every shot. Whether it was a quiet, intimate exchange or a lively dance floor scene, she managed to capture every moment. In addition to how talented she is, she brought a sense of calm and joy to the day. Her friendly demeanor and approach made us feel like we were in the best hands possible. We couldn't have asked for a more dedicated and compassionate photographer to be a part of our celebration. If you're looking for a photographer who will not only deliver stunning, romantic images but also add a touch of warmth and personal connection to your wedding day, we wholeheartedly recommend Kiersten. She is truly one of the sweetest souls.

Hey y’all! We’re Meg & Kevin! We are seekers of wonder – dreamers of moments that cause your heart to race. Moments bursting with adventure that make you feel fully alive and reminded of just how magical this human existence is. This is why we are elopement photographers! We help you plan the wedding day of your dreams! Where your memories come first and you get to have a blast marrying your best friend!

June 8th had finally arrived and we were BEYOND excited to get our elopement underway. We had spoke with Meg and Kevin several times over the phone to talk over all the details of the big day— all the conversations helped build our anticipation of the big day. They were SO invested in ensuring we had the best, most memorable, elopement day possible. We received our sneak peak while we were on mini-moon in Destin and we were overwhelmed with excitement at how good they were. We even joked that if all we had were the 60 or so pictures in the sneak peak we would be content. However, upon the arrival of our full gallery, we were obsessed with them! We were so emotional as we felt we were reliving our big day. Meg and Kev’s ability to capture the raw beauty of nature and our raw emotions are second to none! There are so many wonderful pictures, we are going to struggle picking our favorites to print for an album. They are so so SO beautiful and amazing! Meg and Kevin made the elopement super fun to where the pictures did not feel forced or posed. Almost as if we were on a hike with our besties and getting married at the same time. They went above and beyond to accommodate us—from prior prep with location choices, activity suggestions.. to day of things such as having a wagon for things we could not fit in our hiking packs. They were awesome! One hard thing in regard to planning, was being out of state and not being able to see the locations before picking them. Not to worry though, once we settled on a site, Meg and Kev hiked it ahead of time to get current pics of the location along with timing the day out with the required additional hiking. They built trust and confidence with us to ensure that everything would go smoothly. Lastly, since it was just the two of us, we wanted an officiant to make it feel a little more official. Kevin CRUSHED it as an officiant. He took bits and pieces from our phone convos to the surveys we filled out to make it personable. It was SO well done. We still chose to exchange personally written vows, in a different location apart from the ceremony (to fit our hermit personalities) while Meg and Kev captured the moment from afar. Overall— we could not be happier!!

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.

I have always loved the outdoors. You can find me hiking mountain passes, rock climbing, planning another trip to Mexico, nose buried in some travel guides, looking up cheap flights to Australia, or off on some crazy 3 week long road trip to the Canadian Rockies with my cousins. I will help guide you through the entire process of planning an amazing experience. You can trust me with your wedding day dreams & will give you my all in planning out every little detail for your elopement.

Working with Malachi from the beginning was incredibly effortless and easy-going. From the moment we met him via zoom it was evident that he was the perfect fit to capture our special day – there was no need to search any further! Our elopement plan was for Arches National Park in October 2023, and once revealing that to Malachi we could see his professionalism, experience, and drive begin to kick in. He was knowledgeable about the area and was able to point us in the right direction, offering invaluable insights and helping us align our vision with the perfect locations. When we met in person on our big day, Malachi adapted seamlessly to our laid-back approach, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the moment while choreographing our movements without being pushy, or demanding. The day unfolded flawlessly and it was due to his calm demeanor, genuine personality, and unparalleled expertise with his craft (which you could tell he was serious and in love with). Endless compliments from our family and friends poured in raving about our magazine-worthy photographs. If you're looking for an elopement photographer and need someone who is kind, patient, professional, experienced, easy-going, and a cool dude, Malachi is 100% the right person for you.

Hi there! My name is Ian Davis, and I am the owner and head photographer of Ian Reynolds Photography. As your wedding photographer, it is my goal to provide you with not only beautiful memories from your special day, but to provide a wonderful experience while I am with you.

Ian is a fantastic photographer. He's pleasant to work with and does amazing work. He's very professional, detailed, and makes every step of the process easy to understand. We used his services for both our engagement and wedding and couldn't be happier. The photo shoots were a ton of fun. As an artist myself, I can appreciate Ian's attention to the details that go into his craft. He's not an amateur. There are many people that have the skills necessary to take decent photos - it's Ian's uniquely rare aesthetic that sets him apart. He manages to capture the organic qualities - the beauty and pulse of the object/people/event, which he did incredibly well for our wedding. I will absolutely be using his services for future events and fully recommend his work.

Kass and Isa here! We're besties who separately fell in love with photo and vidoe in our childhood, grew our skills in college, and now we teamed up to offer wedding photo and video for our clients! We love to travel, drink coffee in the am, beer in the pm, and we LOVE weddings. Something we bring to the table that makes us a great vendor option is that we were brides in the last few years so we know the ins and outs of the wedding industry. We give you all of our resources and we love to be a part of the wedding process to help you in any way we can!

These two ladies....amazing work. They worked me with me during Covid and they were so understanding and respectful with wearing masks. The exceptional final product truly captured all of the fun and loving moments we had, except for me singing Shallow at the top of my lungs. It's probably best no one sees that anyway LOL! But I will for sure be reaching back out to these ladies for my maternity photos and any other photoshoot I can think of. 11/10 would recommend.

Hello! My name is Brigette and I am based out of the Chicago land area, but make it my mission to travel for photography as much as possible! I love the color purple, crazy hats, funk music, & all things outdoors! Traveling is my number one passion! I LOVE connecting with couples and getting to tell their love story authentically. I like to connect my subjects with nature and use natural lighting to create breathtaking images that emphasize my love for the natural beauty we find outside every day!

Brigette Burgman Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From start to finish, Brigette's communication was efficient, organized, and personal. Her dynamic, captivating photography was full of emotion and truly captured the essence of our special day. Brigette helped us stick to the timeline by getting all the pictures we wanted, and she was incredibly flexible when I got tired during our portrait session, quickly adjusting the structure to keep me comfortable. As a planner myself, I sometimes struggle to let go and be in the moment, but Brigette's calm, kind demeanor put me at ease. The final photos exceeded our expectations - they are exactly what we had hoped for and more. We are thrilled with Brigette's services and cannot recommend her highly enough!
