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.

We had Arie our our engagement shoot photography and will be using her again for our wedding in June 2024! She was amazing and helped us both feel so comfortable during our shoot. Despite rain in the second half of our session she was still able to capture magic! We are looking forward to having her capture all the special moments at our wedding. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Arie!

Caden Taylor Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,900
  • Serves Sanford, CO for additional fees

With photography, I don't say "I have to go to work" I say "I get to!" I've been behind the camera for over 8 years now and have enjoyed every moment of it. My goal is not to gain a portfolio but new friends, and I do everything I can for my friends. I like to make sure with every couple that I'm finding the best way to serve them. I want every step of the way to feel fun and free and to take away the stress of wedding planning. Getting you beautiful photos and helping you relive your day is what I'm here for!

Awarded Best of Zola
Caden was so great!! The photos were absolutely beautiful, he made sure to get photos throughout the entire night, got detail shots, made sure he got plenty of family photos, and was super personable with our wedding party and guests! The quality and quantity of photos alone make him worth every penny!! You could not get a better photographer for your wedding!

Get To Know Me: I'm an intimate wedding & elopement photographer based in Idaho & Wyoming! Though, you better believe I'll travel anywhere for you! I've been doing photos for 7 years now and I'm in LOVE with it! When I'm not doing photos I'm singing/karaoking, going on hikes/nature walks, playing board games with the fam, watching movies/binging shows, listening to music, and doing anything outdoors! I'm also a total foodie, avid reader, and love animals. Fun Fact: My favorite weddings to do are outdoorsy, nature filled, boho, romantic, modern or adventurous weddings! Also, heads up I will fangirl with you over your dress!

Awarded Best of Zola
My daughter first had her senior photos done with Adriana a couple summers ago. My daughter was super nervous about posing and how they would turn out, but Adriana let her be natural and have fun and move a lot so they turned out AMAZING! Then this summer she did a couple’s shoot for my daughter. I can not even express how gorgeous they turned out. Completely blew my expectations out of the water. I want to hang up every.single.one. My daughter isn’t always the best at posing, but because of Adriana’s super relaxed and fun approach, it doesn’t feel awkward and stiff. They look beautiful and natural and capture their true personalities and chemistry in the best possible way. I highly recommend hiring her! If my daughter ends up married any time soon, Adriana is who we would hire!

Gabbie Burseth Photo 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves Sanford, CO for additional fees

Gabbie Burseth grew up documenting everything and saving mementos in empty Christmas boxes. After studying at the Grady School of Journalism at the University of Georgia, she discovered an affinity for weddings and their accompanying treasures. Her philosophy as a wedding photographer is to observe with as little interference as possible — no faking it, no do-overs, no “for the camera”. Her biggest desire is for couples to be present at their wedding, not stuck in a photoshoot. Her work is punctuated by rich and vibrant color, the timeless quality of analog film, and a sense of humor found in fleeting moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot give high enough praise to Gabbi and her assistant Nick. Our other photographer backed out last minuet and we are SO lucky that Gabbi was available. Communication was super easy and all of the pricing was transparent and easy to understand. On top of all of that, the photos from our wedding are just stunning. I'm so impressed at how Gabbi and Nick always seemed to be exactly in the right place at the right time to capture every single special moment. If you can book Gabbi, you should. You will not be disappointed!

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.

My wife and I were so thankful that we chose Danielle as our wedding photographer. She is highly skilled, organized, and very easy to work with. She was an invaluable resource for us throughout the wedding process. In the months leading up to our wedding, she was like a wedding planner to us, guiding us through our itinerary, answering our questions, and asking important questions to help make our big day flow as smoothly as possible. On our wedding day itself, she put us both at ease and was very flexible when we decided to make a few last-minute switches. Most importantly, she helped capture so many amazing memories with her beautiful photos. We would highly recommend Danielle and Moon Rising Photography.

Peyton was incredibly professional during both photo shoots we had with her. I decided I wanted to do a boudoir shoot for my husband and was nervous. Peyton made me feel comfortable and excited about the next outfit and poses. For our wedding, Peyton came to the venue early and ensured that everything went smoothly. She scouted areas to make the best pictures. She also made me feel comfortable during the photography portion of the day. One thing to mention and I can’t thank her enough for it: she was flexible with the timing and ensured that we knew it was our day.

  • Serves Sanford, CO for additional fees

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

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.

My husband and I can't recommend Kaitlyn enough. From the booking process, our engagement shoot, through the wedding itself Kaitlyn was thoughtful, professional, and attentive to our preferences and requests. She even drove 3 hours to do our engagement shoot in Wisconsin and was able to film our ceremony on her own! Her sneak peek the next day made us so so happy, and she got every photo on our list, including some out of order or spontaneous based on how the day went. We couldn't have been happier with Kaitlyn's services! Rachel & Alex

Hi, I'm McKenna! The person behind the camera and a hopeless romantic. I describe my photography style as candid, romantic, and timeless. My goal is to make a human connection with all my clients and deliver images that you'll love forever. I started 1828 Collective in 2016 after I realized that capturing relationships and telling love stories was my passion. Four years later I'm so in love with my job that I often forget I'm working. I find joy in capturing love, hearing about how you met, and everything in between.

We could not love our engagement and wedding pictures more! From our first meeting with McKenna she got our vibe and made us both feel comfortable. We don't love pictures of ourselves but McKenna's shots captured our personalities and love for each other and made us feel so good. The only trouble is narrowing down which shots we want to get printed to display in our house! You will not go wrong with 1828 Collective and McKenna!

Kelsey Sheehan Photography was founded in 2019. I made the jump into being a professional photographer to follow my heart and work in a career path that I love! When I am not working you can find me baking with country or 90s/00s R&B blasting, sitting by the fire with my neighbors, doing yoga, kickboxing, jiu jitsu, or hiking with my family. Okay, and maybe binge watching Schitt's Creek, Gilmore Girls, or Grey's Anatomy for the hundredth time.

Kelsey is one of a kind! We were a bit nervous about the engagement photoshoot and many things went wrong that day, but she managed to calm us down and put us in a right mood! She was there for us and made us enjoy the photoshoot so much. We had a blast! And then when we saw the pictures I almost cried-she captured such genuine moments. She is highly professional, friendly, accommodating, and just a fun person to be around. We loved our photoshoot so much that we ended up booking a wedding with her too! We highly recommend her services!

Douglas was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding on 08/17/24. Our original wedding photographer cancelled two weeks before our wedding, and a friend recommended we reach out to Doug. He was thankfully available and from the moment we reached out, he was so easy to communicate with - always quick to respond, extremely accommodating, and so easy-going. His work has been absolutely beautiful, he has an amazing understanding of light, composition, and framing with a lot of experience working with outdoor conditions that truly captured the essence of our special day. Doug fit right in with our wedding - he showed up early, stayed late, and somehow (while just following the standard schedule of the day) managed to get the most incredible true lighting and color in *all* of our photos - everything feels exactly like the day itself felt. We couldn't be happier with the results and would without a doubt recommend Douglas R Hall Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

Their communication throughout the planning process was fantastic - they consistently kept us updated on travel plans and made sure we were all on the same page regarding the photography timeline. Most importantly, the quality of their work is stunning. We recently received a preview of some of our photos and were brought to tears by the beautiful images capturing our special day. Shannon and Ally have a true talent for capturing emotional moments without ever getting in the way. They were the hardest working team at our venue, going above and beyond to get every possible shot we could have imagined. We felt so comfortable with them that they even grabbed some extra candids of our wedding party that we had asked for with no issues.

Ashley and Wide Eyed Studios gave us something we couldn't find anywhere else. They were able to capture the totality of our destination wedding experience. On top of that Ashley and Rebecca were able to take the pressure off of couples portraits before the wedding by creating a unique, intimate, striking, outdoor day-after location shoot. This allowed us to enjoy the run up to our wedding with minimal disruptions and gave us a portrait shoot that exceeded our expectations. Having Wide Eyed Studios with us during our entire destination event helped us authentically capture all of the fun moments we had with our friends and family leading up to the wedding. They were able to capture so much more than I had expected, and we now have so much more to look back on with incredible photos. With all of the amazing imagery that was captured, the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception got even more love. The comfort level that was already gained with Ashley having been integrated with the group upleveled all of the content that was captured on wedding day. We are so thankful for all of the moments that were captured. Overall, the entire experience with Ashely and Wide Eyed Studios was so meaningful to us. They felt more a part of our celebration than a vendor we hired to support it. We couldn't have asked for anything more and the pictures we received still make us shake our heads with disbelief. Thank you, Ashley and Wide Eyed Studios for making our destination wedding the best it could possibly be.

For me, photography all started with the outdoors. As someone who loves to bike, hike, kayak, and backpack, photos were a way to capture the vistas and memories I was creating. Photography snowballed into sports, journalism, concerts, products, events, portraits, finally landing on weddings. Weddings became what I loved most due to their fast pace nature, creative freedom, and the opportunity to document real, life-long memories. Every couple and every family has a unique, incredible story. It’s a blessing to be able to document these life-changing events that people can look back on forever.

We are so happy we booked Rob Jinks as our photographer! You can tell he truly cares about his clients and puts so much thought and effort into his work. Our family and friends loved him too - he made sure everyone felt included and seen. The pictures are incredible and he made the whole process very easy. We highly recommend Rob Jinks!!

We give couples an opportunity to create their own ceremonies and trail-blaze their own traditions as they begin their Forever Endeavor Together. And we document it all with stunning, bold, crystal clear photographs that are a reverie both in nature and love.

I'm a Boston based weddings & elopement photojournalist serving New England & beyond. My style is authentic, nostalgic, and a calculated blend of soft and romantic + moody and edgy. I think minimalism is lazy and I want you to look at my work and feel something. My goal is to make you feel so present that you forget I have a camera in my hand while I’m photographing you. I believe it’s my job to remind you of how beautiful and fleeting life is. My hope is that after our session is over, my work turns into some of your most cherished memories decorating your home and your hearts.

Caroline is not only a professional through and through - he is a delight to be around! Working with her on a wedding last season was seamless and FUN. She made the couple, the entire vendor team, and all guests feel so comfortable. Her approach is laid back with the right amount of guidance and the result is exceptionally beautiful and authentic photos. Her deliverables are timely and timeless - I promise you'll love every photo. I can't recommend Caroline enough to any couple who is looking for romantic and authentic wedding photos and a photographer who quickly becomes a friend!

I consider my style to be on the photojournalistic side, documenting moments as they naturally happen but also helping to set the scene for the moments that matter most. But I'm not just here to click a camera; I'm your visual storyteller, weaving the narrative of your love into each frame. You can think of me as your co-pilot to navigating the whirlwind of your wedding day. Together, we’ll craft a seamless timeline, embrace the unexpected moments, and handle anything the day throws our way. I’ll capture every smile shared, heartfelt tear shed, and dance move busted along the way so you can focus on enjoying the magic of your special day!

Hiring Aireal was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding! From the very first consultation, she made my wife and I feel so confident and excited about our big day. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, and it really showed in the photos—each one perfectly captured the essence of our relationship. On the wedding day, Aireal was such a calming presence. She was organized, professional, and had a way of making everyone feel at ease, even in the midst of all the chaos. She caught every detail and emotion without us ever feeling like we were constantly posing for pictures. Our photos are beyond beautiful. She captured so many moments we’ll treasure forever, and the quality is exceptional. We even ordered prints through her gallery and they came out flawless. It’s obvious that Aireal is passionate about her work, and she truly goes above and beyond for her clients. If you’re searching for an LGBTQIA friendly wedding photographer who will capture your day with authenticity, creativity, and a personal touch, look no further.

Hi! I’m Gabriela, but you can call me Gaby! I’ve been a photographer and storyteller for more than seven years. It’s something I’ve always been passionate about… Creating Art. I know love, I know how deep it is and I can see the undeniable connection between two people. I’ve always believed we all should love WITHOUT FEAR. I want my photography to be a storytelling, natural, authentic, and timeless piece of art that reflects what’s truly there. To make love transcend the screen and make people feel it, because… Love has NO BOUNDARIES.

Finding the right wedding photographer was incredibly important to us. We needed someone whose style and art matched our vision. Thankfully we found Gabriela. As soon as we saw her work and explored her page we knew she was a perfect fit. With our wedding being a destination wedding, communication was no issue. She made us feel comfortable and understood our vision perfectly. On our wedding day Gaby was amazing!! She blended into the background capturing all the special moments without us even noticing. I'm so glad we were able to enjoy our day without having to think of photos we needed since Gaby was able to capture every smile, hugs and intimate moments. After the wedding Gaby was so quick with delivering sneak peek photos and even quicker with the finished gallery. Each picture brings us back to that day, and we can feel the emotions all over again. I wholeheartedly recommend Gabriela for your special day. Thank you so much for giving us such wonderful memories to last us forever.
