I created Emily Novara Photography, LLC because I believe that capturing the best day of your life deserves the same attention to detail that you put into planning it. I love meeting my couples, hearing all about their love stories, getting to know them - like truly getting to know them (most of my brides consider me one of their friends!). My brides trust I understand their vision and are able to enjoy their wedding day because of the communication leading up to it.

She came organized and prepared for the activities of the day. She was willing to change and adjust as the situation needed.

Lexi Harrington Photography

  • Classic style

  • Serves Smithton, IL

It's true what they say — when you know, you know. Something as special as that innate instinct to love and be loved by your person is art in itself. Keep the star-crossed feeling close with artfully directed storytelling photography designed to honor your love / your story / your wedding in all its authentic beauty. Let's hike a trail, drink cocktails on the roof, dance in a crowded street, let's capture your love for everything that it is. Let's do it all and make it as unforgettable as the moment you say, "I do!"

My wedding was a little atypical, we planned the entire thing in less than two months, had a crowd of 30 family members present, and had EVERYONE take an hour car trip into the National Park for our ceremony. The photographer who would capture all our wonderful memories was by far the most important vendor to me, so Lexi was the first person I booked! And thank goodness I did because I couldn’t have picked a more wonderful person to handle the uniqueness of our celebration than her. Lexi dealt with one date change, two location changes, and much more as my husband and I went through the decision making process in our short timeline. Lexi handled it all flawlessly, and showed up ready to help make our day special even in the middle of her own pregnancy! She traveled from states away, and made the Indiana Jones-esque drive into the mountains, to go above and beyond to shoot for us. Not only that but she got our preview out in less than 24 hours from the close of our reception, lightning speed! She was so kind and helped us feel comfortable and natural for two people who have never taken professional photos before. I would recommend anyone to Lexi for their wedding/elopement!

I’ve always been a romantic, a dreamer. From watching my favorite movie of all time (Titanic) to daydreaming about meeting Prince Charming in a trip across the sea (even if I have to travel back to the 18th century to meet a ruggedly handsome Scotsman *cough cough*- big Outlander fan here.). I’ve always been in love with love. Fortunately, I've been able to give all of my creative energy and love for the arts to my photography. I’ve been photographing people on one of the happiest days of their lives for nearly a decade now and I still can’t get enough.

Emily was amazing from our first consultation to the final delivery of our AMAZING photos! She made us so comfortable at every session and we have received countless compliments on her photos. We recommend to her all of our friends for their weddings!! Can’t say enough good things about her!!

Zoe Life Photography

  • Serves Smithton, IL

Hi everyone! I'm a portrait and wedding photographer based in St. Louis, MO and Nashville, TN, but I love shooting destinations too. I love romance and capturing authentic love stories in photographs that you will cherish the rest of your life. My style is elegant, classic, and candid. I love capturing those emotional, happy, and joyful moments that unfold when no one is looking. Since 2014, I have photographed over 200+ beautiful weddings, and I can't wait to photograph yours.

My videography company has worked with Zoe several times over the past few years and each and every time is an absolute pleasure. Obviously, Zoe's work speaks for itself; it's beautiful and touching and some of the best we've seen. But the real treat that you may not anticipate is the working relationship with Zoe. She's extremely detailed but laid-back and accomodating. We've never had any scheduling issues when working together and if we did, I have no doubt that it would be resolved immediately. She's always been very cordial to our team, as well as other vendors, and will provide you an extremely smooth wedding day with no stress and plenty of smiles. We can't wait to work with her again and I know you'll have the same feeling if you make the wonderful choice to trust her with your most important memories. You will not regret it!

We are a husband and wife photography team based in St. Louis MO and available worldwide. We absolutely love what we do! Our main focus is to tell a story through the images we take at your wedding.

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

Awarded Best of Zola
Abigail is a great photographer that not only does great work and gets stuff done but she's also hilarious and down to earth! We had her shoot our engagement pictures and wedding pictures and they turned out amazing! From making us laugh, to getting the whole family to pay attention down to getting the best shots we will have to cherish! She offers so much for her clients and I'm excited to have her do our family pictures as well. If you want fun and cherishing moments without having to worry about if you're getting the pictures you want, Abigail is your girl!

HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts! (But I mean who isnt! I just cant help it!) FUN FACT: I speak switzerdütsch, aka a German slang. My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

Hiring Ashley was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She’s bubbly, kind, and makes you feel like you’ve been friends forever. The day of our wedding went by so fast, but every single image she captured brings me back in an instant. She not only captured our love story, but captured our friends and family beautifully. Every silly moment, tender exchange and happy tear was published in our gallery — and for that, I am forever grateful. THANK YOU Ashley & Meredith, our wedding day was all the more special with your talent!

Bonie Weddings is a wedding photography and videography company, dedicated to capturing those unscripted and genuine moments. From candid laughs and unplanned dance moves to even the cake mishaps (yes, it happens), We're there to preserve the authenticity and genuinely of your special day. Our team of professionals firmly believes that every couple should have the opportunity to capture the memories of their special day without breaking the bank.

Bonie Wedding was great to work with. From the start process, the communication was easy. Hannah was our lead photographer with Emily and Lactoya were our videographers, who were both great teams. I highly recommend using Bonie weddings for both photo and video, as the two teams worked together without any trouble. During the reception, we barely noticed their presence, yet every time we looked up they were there recording everything. It was so nice to know that your special day was captured from start to finish, without feeling overwhelming. We appreciated Hannah and Emily's directions for all the photos. The production team was great as well. Very responsive and easy to communicate. They make the entire process clear and concise, which is appreciated when the wedding planning process and day off can feel overwhelming. Our wedding was not even 2 weeks ago and we already received our video trailer, as well as some sneak peek pictures from Hannah via Dropbox. Hannah also did our engagement shoot and it was fun and easy. We loved how our pictures came out and are so eager to see the rest. Thank you Bonie!
