Love Knot Photography

  • Editorial style

  • Serves Santa Fe, NM

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.

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

Awarded Best of Zola
David Jesse Photography was everything we hoped for in our wedding photographer!! Our package included an engagement shoot that was edited and returned to use within a week. Our two photographers spent the entire wedding day capturing all of the moments that were special to us. They were friendly, personable and quick! Our wedding photos came back in a week! Overall, I would highly recommend David Jesse Photography. It is clear they love their job and they love serving people on their big day!

We were so impressed by 505 media and their quick responses and quality of photo/video they took! From the initial phases of planning, they were quick to respond and eager to help in the planning process of making sure timelines were manageable. They were able to capture all of the milestones during the day and were even willing to hop on our party bus when we wanted footage of the wedding party driving around! We were so impressed by how quick the photos were delivered! We received a text while on our honeymoon the week after our wedding that our edited photos were done and one week later we received all our pictures!

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

Shawnee was an unbelievable photographer and such a special part of our wedding weekend. From the moment we reached out to her to getting our pictures, she has been incredibly communicative, easy to work with, and deeply kind. She made us feel so at ease and taken care of at our Rehearsal Dinner and on our wedding day. She not only allowed us to be our fullest selves but also encouraged capturing us in ways that felt authentic and not stuck in expected wedding photos or gender roles.

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.

I truly found a love for storytelling once I got into weddings. Weddings are these multifaceted community of stories and relationships that continue to keep me fascinated and excited about capturing them. I find that my style leans towards an editorial, storytelling side, with hints of sophisticatication, hues of modern relevance & overall timeless imagery.

As a photographer myself, my wife and I knew how important it was to find someone truly exceptional, and Jesi B. exceeded our expectations in every way. The quality of her work is simply top-tier - the photos are stunning and truly captured the joy and beauty of our special day. Our wedding wouldn't have been the same without Jesi B.

TLDR: she is talented, professional & kind very helpful as someone with limited mobility. Tessa & her team photographed & recorded my wedding last weekend, and they were a dream to work with. I am chronically ill & so I knew on my wedding day I could not be running around to different locations for photos, and Tessa was extremely mindful of that fact & made sure to work within the parameters of what was doable for me. I was worried my limited mobility would mean my photos would be a little boring, but she's already sent a handful of pictures over for a sneak peek & they are GORGEOUS. Tessa is a true professional but also someone who clearly loves what she does, which I think really shows in the quality of her work. Could not be more glad to have had her & her team document my special day! :)

Once I photographed my first wedding I was smitten. Now over a decade later I still absolutely love what I do. I am passionate about creating beautiful photographs that are sincere, meaningful, full of emotion, and feel like you. I want you to be able to look back on your wedding photographs year after year and remember all the emotions - the laughter, the tears of joy, and the love.

Awarded Best of Zola
There are wedding photographers and then there’s Stacie. I’ve never been so impressed by someone who can see the perfect shot and instruct my less-than-photogenic husband and I to create the photo. Her calm presence made us both feel extremely comfortable in front of the camera. Stacie was so sweet throughout the entire process and really wanted to understand our story first, which is a direct result of our final photos! She was able to effortlessly capture our personality and the energy of the day in the best shot. In addition to being a master photographer, she was able to put everyone involved in the photos at ease to facilitate meaningful moments. She was also quick to pivot in last minute scenarios (i.e. my dad and I had to switch locations for our first look and Stacie figured it out in the blink of an eye & it was PERFECT!). She was a great communicator and offered so much great advice in not only picking a videographer but also finalizing our grand exit; she was direct in what she felt comfortable shooting and what she recommended for the lighting, etc. If Stacie is available, book her immediately. She’s quick to communicate, gave us great recommendations for our shot list, and made sure our wants and desires came first. She captured all our top priority shots and then some! What also blew us away was her talent to be everywhere to capture the moment but also remain in the background and unnoticeable. We are obsessed with EVERY SINGLE ONE of our photos and can’t recommend her enough!

Hey!! Congratulations and I'm so excited you're here! My name's Lissa (pronounced "Lyss-uh") and photographs are my jam! Also my jam? Bright colors, the lamest jokes, floral everything, weird history, and awesome ghost stories. I'm a total mother hen / perpetual big sister and I'm mom to Max, Henry, and Penelope. I love creating. I garden. I sew. I crochet. I design ridiculously cute tee shirts. But most of all? I freaking love creating photographs. A professional photographer since 2011 (eek!), my photographs are bright, happy, and totally meant to hit you in the feels. But most of all? They're a total party!

Awarded Best of Zola
It was such a pleasure having Lissa as the photographer for our wedding. She has taken several photos for me and my family throughout the years, and each time the photos have always been exactly what we wanted. Her photos are vibrant, full of color, and full of feeling. Lissa was sure to respond quickly to contracts, questions, and provided information in a timely manner. She listened to our desires and concerns, and when needed she provided feedback that helped us feel more comfortable and excited to work with her. She is incredibly easy to work with her. She was flexible with any photo requests that came up in the moment, and she guided and directed us for other shots she felt would turn out well when we weren't sure what to do next. She was professional and courteous to all of our wedding guests and yet always made sure to prioritize our (the bride and groom) desires and time as opposed to the rest of our wedding party. She had a happy, yet focused disposition while working with us. That focus was evident in the BEAUTIFUL pictures she took. She perfectly captured our joy that day. Turnaround time was better than expected, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We have no regrets with our choice of wedding photographer. She's amazing!

He was early to the event and captured more than I hoped. He even brought a few props I didn’t expect, but made for cool photos. I am so happy with the results, they’re beautiful!

Photography was the most important vendor for us for our wedding day! I chose Anna because of her editing style & her attention to detail! Our photos came out amazing & she got so many candids of our guests as well! She really has a timeless style which was our favorite part! She was so nice & great to work with on our day!

With over 10 years of industry experience, my strengths clearly lie in wedding and portraiture photography. Whether you're a recently engaged couple looking for someone to preserve your journey from fiancés to newlyweds through photographs, an expectant Mama hoping to capture your maternity glow or simply wanting to document you and your loved ones during whatever special season of life you're in, I would love to hear from you, I specialize in all types of portraiture but I am renowned for my wedding and engagement photography above all else. Whatever your photo needs are, I would love to chat and find out if we're a good match.

Sam was our girl from the beginning. She encouraged our pups in our engagement photos and worked around their lack of being photogenic. She pushed us, comfortably, out of our comfort zone. She was found by my Maid of Honor on Instagram and I immediately knew her style was what I had been looking for. When it came to wedding day I was most excited to see not only our photographer, but a friend. She was supportive, easy to work with and guided us in the right direction when needed. She knocked out our photos in a timely manor while positioning and giving great direction as to where to move to make the picture look better (something that was important to me). I am happy to scream her name for recommendations from now on & return to her in the future!

My first wedding day to capture was two years after I had started freelancing; a day I will never forget, Valentine's Day, 2014, in Hot Springs, AR. Little did I know how my focus would shift from that day forward. In the past seven years since then, I am honored to have captured more than three-dozen weddings. It never fails that each of those days are full of such unique beauty and character, but most importantly, they are full of loving memories of a lifetime.

Jackie was absolutely amazing! So communicative and easy to work with. Addressed all concerns before the wedding and was super quick with sending our previews over which was absolutely gorgeous! She’s so talented and has such an eye… case in point, I decided last second after the reception that I wanted a picture of me and my husband under my veil, told her about it, and she took one of us in the parking lot outside our reception venue. I don’t know about you, but if I took this pic in the same setting, I’d be embarrassed to even show anyone. I was absolutely SHOCKED at how this photo turned out and actually is one of my favorites!

I provide a positive, thoughtful photography experience that ensures you’ll get the photos of your dreams and have space to be present with your community. It’s an honor to join you in celebrating your brand new marriage and I make it a point to understand what you value the most. I don’t over edit or correct your photos, but instead capture the natural colors, details, and soft smiles of your wedding as you actually experienced them. The result? Timeless, classic photos that never go out of style or off trend.

We had the privilege of having Kyrsten as our wedding photographer and I cannot recommend her services enough. She was amazing to work with and her final product speaks for itself. Simply stunning and amazing photos that we will love for the rest of our lives.

I, Zig Metzler, do solemnly swear to bring integrity and enthusiasm to your celebration. I promise to document you & your day with compassion, humor, and heart. — But what’s that?? You’re a road dog, you say? Getting married in a National Park? An abandoned mall? A remote mountain top chapel where Bear Grylls officiates? Bring it on! Whether your wedding is in your grandma’s backyard, a swanky hotel, or a canyon in Big Bend I’m there to create photographs that feel like classic *you*. It’s exciting to get to make images of such a special time in your lives— I want to help preserve those moments, and create something personal that endures.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough good things about Ziggy. Not only is she an amazing photographer who takes beautiful and emotional images - she’s one of the best people to be around. You will spend most of your wedding day with your partner and your photographer - probably more time than you’ll spend with your parents or best friends on that day. Ziggy is the most fun, warm, caring person to be around and will make your day a blast. She’ll make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and when you look at the images afterward you’ll notice that she captured not only the people and events of that day but the FEELING it held for you and everyone who was there. She is also radically inclusive and very capable of working with LGBTQ+ families and multicultural families. I have worked with Ziggy on multiple occasions and every time I come back to her images I am blown away by the care, thoughtfulness, and artfulness she pours into them. Book her IMMEDIATELY.

I can’t say enough good things about Mary Kate! She did both my engagement and wedding day photos.

She’s so easy to work with and makes the whole process a breeze. She comes with her own ideas but also gives you the opportunity to share your own on what kind of pictures you want. I highly recommend!

I’m a New York raised / Alaska braised 5’0″ multi-passionate, photographer and filmmaker – I can appreciate the grit of a city, but I also have a small-town heart. I’m layers of hard work, deep empathy, and a Roseanne cackle-laugh. I’m all about having my cake, eating it too, and sharing some with you. I believe in celebrating family & friends, NY pizza, actin’ a fool, editing my photos to candid perfection (mostly this), and skipping the small talk.

Megan is an absolute pleasure to work with!! I'm always excited to work with her because I know that the process will be seamless and her quality of work is like no others! And not only is she super talented, but a joy to be around!!

I’m Alyssa. You can call me Lys. (It rhymes with Kiss) ☺ I'm a photographer based in Des Moines, Iowa. I travel often. Couples, elopements, and small weddings are my speciality. My style leans documentary, timeless, and sincere, with some avant-garde editorial vibes, artsy influences, and good old fashioned weirdness mixed in. I love color, flash, film, and all things non-traditional. I got my start in music photography, which greatly informs my shooting style, and have been documenting Iowa's music scene and touring with bands for over 10 years!

I'm a micro-wedding venue owner and I recently hosted a gorgeous LGBTQ+ styled shoot. From beginning to end Alyssa was a pleasure to work with. She initiated correspondence - including overall vision, clear expectation, and a comprehensive schedule for all vendors. Her ability to pull a vision together and pay attention to detail are equally strong. She had the ability to manage a project while simultaneously making all vendors and models feel comfortable. She excels at bringing out the most of her models & left the venue in great condition. I will not hesitate to work with Alyssa again - She's an absolute pleasure!

Intimate wedding & elopement photography fills me with complete joy and making my clients feel totally comfortable on their wedding day is one of my top priorities. Weddings and elopements are such a tender time in a couple’s life. Being able to share in the joy of the moment by becoming a part of their day, getting up close, and documenting the small, sweet interactions with my camera feels like magic to me. We’ll capture what’s feels truly authentic to you. My empathy (not my ego) is my plus one. Your wedding day is all about you and I’m 100% invested in helping you soak up every ounce of joy, love, and excitement. I’m here for YOU.
