Hi, we’re Chris and Audrey! A husband and wife photographer-videographer duo located in sunny Pompano Beach, South Florida who loves to travel the world. His Light & Co. was first born out of a desire to share God's love with couples as they begin a new chapter of life together. But shortly after opening our doors, we also developed a deep passion for capturing wedding films and images that are as unique as our couples’ love stories.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were referred to Chris by a friend who used him for their own wedding and had nothing but positive things to say. Well, it became immediately evident why. Upon first meeting through zoom, it was clear Chris was very personable, friendly, and attentive, and after speaking with him for only about 10-15 my fiancee and I already knew we were going to choose Chris. We have now had the opportunity to work with Chris on two separate occasions and honestly, they have been some of my favorite experiences to date. Chris is very warm and friendly, he's easy to have a conversation with but still very professional and the quality of his work has left us speechless, to be honest. I dont consider myself to be a model of any kind but when shooting with Chris he defintely makes you feel like you are the star and this is your show. We have no regrets in choosing Chris to be our photographer for one of the most important days of our lives and trust us, you wont either. He is freaking amazing and you will be able to tell right away. 10/10 recommended without question. Thank you Chris for making this experience as wonderful as you have.

  • Serves Shafter, CA for additional fees

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!

Hey, how cool of you to end up here. I promise not to bore you with a bunch of flowery language or over-the-top promises. I love to document real moments. Weddings, elopements, couples' shenanigans - you name it, I am here for it. I do this with a healthy dose of humor, a dash of sarcasm and a whole lot of heart. So if you're looking for someone to capture your day in all its imperfect glory, say something, let's make it happen.

Loy at Sweet Lime takes some great photos. He was a joy to work with and helped set the room up by providing a suggestion that none of the restaurant staff, or us, had thought of which ended up working swimmingly. The day of the wedding, he was present but also not too if that makes sense. He was kind enough to send us a couple preview shots while we impatiently/patiently waited. The photos are well worth the wait. I would be happy to recommend Sweet Lime Photography. You will not be disappointed in his service.

Hi! I’m Becka, my husband, Aaron and I are traveling wedding and elopement photographers based in Northern Illinois! We love spending time with people, being outdoors, and we are always down for good conversation!

Awarded Best of Zola
Becka and her team deserve 5/5 stars and all the love for how hard they worked with my husband and I throughout the pandemic.. Let’s go back all the way to the beginning of March 2020.. That’s where I met Becka for the first time.. (She met me in person, which I truly appreciated) right before well, COVID-19.. We were both a little hesitant of what was to come of this virus but it was SO early that neither one of us thought it would effect my wedding that was supposed to take place in the fall of that year.. Boy, were we in for a surprise.. Realizing in the summer that COVID-19 wasn’t going to go anywhere, we rescheduled our wedding for the following year. Unfortunately, Becka was already booked for the only day we could manage to reschedule our venue/church.. However, she saved the day by allowing her assistant photographers, Lauren & Michaela to take over… At first I was a bit nervous knowing Becka wasn’t going to be the one taking the wedding pictures (we loved our engagement photography session) but I trusted her, and I knew her standards were high so she wouldn’t just allow anyone to take the pictures under her name... And let’s just say, my husband and I were not disappointed! The assistant photographers did amazing, it even rained during the most crucial time of the wedding (in terms of photos) …The time after the ceremony! But despite this, the pictures came out absolutely stunning and our family/friends loved them.. All the details, all the unexpected “I didn’t know they captured that!” moments were there… Another thing I want to mention is the way Becka was able to help me schedule parts of the wedding and assist in the planning of when certain things are supposed to happen… As you can imagine, planning a wedding is stressful... Sometimes you don’t even know where to start! Becka helped me tackle this issue and streamline the day so it wouldn’t be as intimidating… With her schedule, I could now put together the pieces of the day and take a breath. Photos & logistics aside, everyone was also so sweet, patient and accommodating… So a big thank you to Becka, Lauren & Michaela for capturing our big day wonderfully. We will cherish these photos for a lifetime!

I am lucky; I get to do what I love for a living, have a ton of fun doing it, and meet a lot of great people along the way. It's a bonus that I get to also travel a lot for it as well. I hope to always bring that enthusiasm and fun to every wedding as well. I tell myself before every wedding to treat it like it was my very first. I do only weddings, and I only do 30 per year. This lets me focus on my couples and their weddings, and to tell their stories completely. Over 400 weddings spanning 12+ years. And I have never missed a one. Not even late. I may not take myself too seriously, but I take my commitment to my couple seriously.

Cody was brilliant! I could not recommend him enough. I’m usually very camera anxious and hate my picture being taken so having a photographer follow me around for an entire day would typically be my nightmare. However, Cody made me so comfortable and was such a calming energy. I LOVE how our photos turned out and my husband and I look so natural and fantastic in every picture! My only complaint it how I’m going to be able to decide which ones to frame for my walls…I may need more walls!

Awarded Best of Zola
I can't explain how happy we were with Lizzie... the photos she took were absolutely beautiful. I was really impressed that she listened to exactly what we wanted - we definitely didn't want these fake posed photos you often see from weddings and she was perfect at fulfilling that and producing the most natural collection of memories. She really hung back in the background so you never felt you have a camera in your face all day and yet the final results were breathtaking. I haven't had the time to print them yet but I can't wait to have a collage up in the house. We were super impressed by the speed of receiving them all after the day too - within 3-4 weeks max we had already gotten the collection and I must admit I cried when receiving them since they are so beautiful! Sometimes I have some memory issues due to my health and having our wedding day documented so thoroughly and beautifully I can look back anytime and be reminded of how perfect that day was so I am so grateful. Honestly I would recommend Lizzie to anyone. If you are already looking into her site and wondering out of all of the people out there, whether she would be the right photographer for you... just go for it and it will be the best decision you make, I assure you.

We hired Esra at Pozan Productions for our photos. She was amazing from start to finish. Very professional in conducting her business, but also so personable and easy to work with. She put us highlighted our best features. Esra was open to the locations I suggested and scouted them ahead of time to be sure they offered what she needed for background and for lighting purposes. She clearly explained her processes, timeline, billing, etc. so that we were always on the same page. Most importantly, the shots were AMAZING!!!! Truly. The way she captured our personalities showed a lot of skill, plus the lighting and colors were gorgeous. I just couldn't be more thrilled with the outcome.

At Taylor Made Photography, we don't just capture images—we create unforgettable experiences. Based in the vibrant heart of Las Vegas, our passion is turning your special moments into timeless stories. Whether it's an adventurous elopement in the Valley of Fire, a laid-back wedding at the Little White Chapel, or an intimate engagement session in the Downtown Las Vegas Arts District, we’re here to make every moment count.

We hired Heather to take photographs of our vow renewal for our tenth wedding anniversary. Heather was outstanding from the minute I contacted her. She was always available to answer questions, happily recommended other vendors and even picked up champagne, doughnuts and sparklers for our day. We are not the kind of people that like to be photographed so once the day drew closer we started to get slightly nervous but we didn’t need to be. Heather was great at making us feel comfortable, we laughed so much! Heather was also amazing with our two young daughters. We had the most amazing experience, we are still waiting for our full set of pictures but the sneak peaks were absolutely beautiful so had to come on and leave a review. Thank you Heather x

Documenting weddings by capturing the effortless love and beautiful nature that exists in the same space. Photographing joy-filled weddings in a natural yet bright and vibrant style to bring candid and editorial moments to life. A calming, excited presence on your wedding day to cheer you on through all of your planning and tear-jerking moments. Prioritizing your experience in the moment while capturing all the moments in between. My style is natural, organic, and colorful with an editorial flare that aims to capture authentic human connection and the natural environment around you.

Kayla was the third photographer for our wedding and we are so SO glad that she was part of the team for our big day! She has such a special eye for detail and captured moments with such love and care. She was incredibly helpful the day of our wedding, from extensively scoping out photography locations, to bringing us water and anything else we needed as we were going through our shot list. The final gallery that she shared with us was absolutely stunning and so full of unique moments and details we were so glad were captured on film for us to relive again and again. Thank you Kayla for helping make our special day absolutely magical!

✨ PLEASE email me or message on Instagram to connect✨ Hey, hi, hello! My name is Nancy, I’m a wedding and elopement photographer based in Portland, Oregon. I grew up in Southern California, I visited Oregon once and fell in love! I’m the type of person that will say hello to every dog I meet on the street and freak out when I see a dog hanging their head out of their persons car or when I see cows grazing while driving down the backroads. I'm a huge lover of the outdoors and quiet mornings with a huge cup of coffee and reading on the balcony.

Forevermore by Nancy was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the start, their communication was quick, dependable, and extremely organized - making the planning process a breeze. On the day of, they made taking pictures easy and took off any pressure, allowing us to just enjoy the moment. The quality of their work is truly stunning, with gorgeous, fun photos that captured all the special details. They were so kind and fun to work with throughout the entire process. We couldn't be happier with Forevermore by Nancy and highly recommend them to any couple looking for high-quality, helpful wedding photography.

I like to think of myself as a lil bit southern, lil bit punk, and a whole lotta rock-n-roll. I’m a PBR lover, hardcore show corner dweller, disco ball queen. You’re going to hear me say, “hell yeah, brother” more than twice, Dale Earnhardt is an icon, and Dolly Parton is royalty. You'll love me if you're a little trashy, always classy, badass, sometimes chic, forever romantic. Unwedding, editorial, nontraditional, offbeat, colorful, joyful, film-inspired, and disco vibes always. If you like, I'll wear a rainbow suit, I'll definitely dance with your mom, and I will always be a champion for you and your lover.

Kathleen is not only an incredible artist but an incredible person. She is incredibly thoughtful and has an amazing eye for documenting her couples in a unique and creative perspective. Kathleen is a delight to work with and her couples absolutely love her. Not only for the art she creates, but her couples know they will have the best time working with her. Kathleen makes you feel like an instant friend, and it's because you are! I absolutely recommend Kathleen.
