After 15 years of success in retail floral design, they decided to take on the event world full force! In 2017, Eden Events was launched and within the first month was recognized as a wedding award winner in our service area.

For my fall wedding I had a pretty specific vision for what I wanted and Dana exceeded expectations ! The florals were all beautiful and she did an amazing job matching what I wanted with the colors and style. The girls bouquets were perfect and everyone complemented them ! For my husband we did a pocket floral that was just perfect and last but not least - my bouquet was amazing ! She also worked on a formal arch for the wedding and it was WAY MORE than I expected. It was an amazing focal piece of our wedding, not to mention all the additional florals throughout the venue. I would not hesitate to hire her for your wedding and if I need florals in the future she is my number one choice.

Tara Beth Photography is a place of inclusion, empathy, intimacy, and care. From the first email, I take care with my clients. Considering them all unique, and with that, their stories being unique. We talk about how you want to be captured, how your love should be captured. We go over insecurities, love stories, and anything else that may come up during our Zoom calls. I don't want to be just someone you hire. I want to be considered someone you trust, and enjoy to have around!

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Tara Beth for our wedding in December 2022. We started following her instagram years prior and fell in love with how she captured every moment, from the guests to the couple. Not only were her photos amazing, but being a part of the LGBTQ community can feel daunting at times when reaching out to vendors, specifically for same-sex weddings. We had a few tough experiences with other vendors in regards to being a same-sex couple, but Tara Beth, as she is a part of the community, made it easy to feel comfortable and accepting. We contacted her and were met with a quick response. From the start, we knew she was the one. Her vibe and passion for love sold us! My wife and I were very nervous to take photos, but Tara Beth reassured us that she would walk us through everything - and she did just that. She talked us through our first look and it was an amazing experience. She also guided our party and family photos, which was super helpful as we were able to get our photos done ahead of schedule! We appreciate everything Tara Beth did for our special day and would recommend her 100 times over!

Tracie Kitt Photography

  • Photographer

  • Starts at $4,050
  • Serves Smyrna, DE

I'm a documentarian and a storyteller at heart. I capture the most real and authentic moments I can, big or small, loud or quiet. I especially love catching moments that the couple might never get to witness except in their wedding photos. I'm based in Philly, but I'm always up for an adventure, especially one that takes me away from home.

Tracie is always my first choice for a photography colleague. She's magical--she knows where she needs to be, what to pay attention to, how I like to tell a story, and how to be an all around amazing, caring, personable human being. Her extensive background in news photojournalism gives her the ability to blend in with any crowd and has honed her visual storytelling skills. Above all, she is ethical and compassionate when approaching her subjects, and understands how to make anyone feel comfortable and cared for. Her images are always of the highest quality as well as artistic, and I know she will be able to roll with the punches with things go haywire--as they often do with live events. I would hire her in a heartbeat, and have relied on her for local and travel weddings for over a decade.

I specialize in capturing the real, candid moments during your wedding day. My approach is all about blending seamlessly into your event. Clients often describe me as calm, cool, and personable. While I take a variety of photos, I stay in the background, moving fluidly throughout the day. My goal is to preserve those fleeting moments, often capturing details you might not have noticed in the excitement of the day. My role also is to make your day stress-free. Whether it's helping direct family for portraits or keeping things running smoothly, I'll be by your side to ensure you feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process.

Awarded Best of Zola
We cannot say enough good things about Konrad and his incredible work on both our engagement shoot and our wedding day! From the very first consultation, it was clear that he was not only professional but also genuinely passionate about his craft. He took the time to understand our vision for photography and delivered beyond our expectations—without breaking the bank! After our engagement shoot he surprised us with a behind the scenes video of our day and we were sold on adding the video option to our wedding day. On the day of the wedding, he was calm, organized, and made us feel so comfortable. His attention to detail was amazing, capturing all of the candid moments, the beautiful portraits, and even the small, intimate touches we didn’t notice ourselves. He managed to blend seamlessly into the background while still getting the most stunning shots. What really stood out to us was his ability to balance both photography and videography without sacrificing quality in either area. The photos are breathtaking, and the 4 minute wedding video perfectly tells the story of our day, with all the right moments captured in the most beautiful way. We were also impressed with how quickly he turned around our photos and video—it didn’t take long to relive those precious memories! All of this came at a price that was surprisingly reasonable, especially when you consider the high level of service and talent he brings to the table. We truly feel like we got the best of both worlds: top-tier photography and videography at a price that fit our budget. If you’re looking for a photographer who will not only meet your expectations but exceed them, we highly recommend Konrad. Thank you for making our special day unforgettable!

I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I'm also a musician and I help craft most of the music in the wedding films I create. I love working with couples that have unique personalities and styles. My work resonates the most with who it's made for, and I always keep that audience in mind.

I can't express how grateful we are for our incredible wedding videographer, Steven! He was not only incredibly talented but also the sweetest person to work with. His professionalism and attention to detail were evident in every shot he took.  He beautifully captured all the special moments of our day, and finding someone who could provide high-quality video, drone footage, and 8mm film was a dream come true. When I finally stumbled upon this gem from Virginia, I knew I had found my guy! And I felt compelled to write this review even before receiving our final video because of how much we enjoyed working with Steven and his colleague! I was so comfortable with them and felt like their friend by the end of it all. If the teaser video is any indication (which we received the following day OMG!), the final video will far exceed all our expectations! We will cherish these memories forever, thanks to their amazing work! EASILY, HAPPILY, AND HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! 12/10! 5 STARS ALL AROUND! If you would like a videographer who has a great product, is easy to work with, is a good human, and makes your wedding day better by being awesome, do yourself a favor and hire Steven!

Ashley is an intensely driven, detail-oriented fan of excellent food and exhilarating romance & happens to be a passionate editorial wedding photographer. Her approach is simple–take the time to get to know each & every couple to create breathtaking, personal images. She brings together a diverse background in both the visual & performing arts to craft your wedding story through fine art imagery that you will pass on for generations to come. In her free time, she is probably snuggling with her two amazing dogs, commuting back & forth between her home in Maryland and our Malvern studio, or whipping up something extravagant in the kitchen.

I truly had the dream team with Ashley, Michelle, and Ashley on my wedding day. Communication is a huge thing for me when it came to planning the wedding and they always responded in a timely manner and worked with my husbands crazy schedule. On our wedding day Ashley was with the ladies and I during getting ready, while Michelle had to handle the guys, I say handle because they’re a handful especially once my dad is thrown into the mix. (You know the sos button on your phone… yeah my dad bumped that and the state cops showed up…. Oops.) but Michelle did amazing with them. We had a first look and then did our family photos and they did a wonderful job getting the kids attention (3 kids under 2). During our ceremony I had no idea they were even there, they really do just blend in to the scene. During cocktail hour Ashley took some precious photos of us with our son that I know I’ll cherish forever. They even took us out for some nighttime portraits before the left for the night. I highly recommend working with Ashley and her team !

I am small town guy who got hooked on photography from a photo class I took in high school. Fast forward a few years a college professor asked if I wanted to photograph a colleague's wedding and that was it, I was hooked. I loved the honest emotions, the story telling, and the sincere connection with people. Fast forward again, I have now developed an approach to a wedding where I let the day happen naturally so I can capture all of the candid moments and genuine emotions.

I really cannot recommend Dan enough! As soon as I saw his website I knew I wanted him to shoot our wedding. From the beginning, he was open and communicative. He answered all my questions and sat down with us to talk us through what our day would look like. I wasn't living in the area for the first few months of wedding planning, and he was so accommodating and knowledgable about Philly and how to plan out everything so we could get great shots around the city, which really put me at ease! On the day, Dan was such a pleasure to be around. From the very beginning of the morning all through the last dance, he made everyone laugh and really helped us feel comfortable and at ease. Even when some family tensions started to arise, he was able to navigate everything with poise and grace and kept things running smoothly. He's funny and kind and a great ally to have in your corner! And of course THE PICTURES!! They're gorgeous. Incredible. Oh my gosh, Dan is so talented. It was a gray and rainy December day in Philadelphia. The weather was everything I feared. But somehow Dan took the rain and turned it into the most magical, fairy-tale-esque photos I've ever seen. He captured the entire day so beautifully and authentically. Looking back at our photos, I can feel the jittery excitement of the morning, the absolute love of our ceremony, and the joy of our reception. Nothing felt forced or awkward or posed with Dan. Your wedding day is both a marathon and a sprint, and it goes by in a blur. There were moments that I barely even noticed happening! But Dan noticed and was able to capture them so beautifully and genuinely. We are so, so, so in love with Dan's work. His photos are all over our house and every time I look at them I am amazed by them. Apart from deciding to marry my husband, picking Dan as our photographer was the easiest and best choice I made in the whole wedding planning process. He really is an incredible person and photographer, and I recommend him to any and every bride in the Philadelphia area!!

She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

We are absolutely thrilled with the experience we had with Vicki and Erica! From our initial consultation to the final delivery of our wedding photos, they exceeded our expectations in every way. They were not only incredibly professional but also incredibly personable, making us feel at ease and capturing every special moment with a genuine and artistic touch.

They have such a knack for finding those perfect, candid shots that totally show the real us. Plus, the way they set up the posed photos. When we got our photos and the video, we couldn't stop smiling and laughing. They caught all the love, laughter, and even the crazy dance moves (hello, epic dance party!). The highlight reel was like a mini movie of the best day ever—we’ve already watched it a million times!

Greetings! My name is Lionel and I am a full time traveling photographer from New Jersey that specializes in Weddings and Events on the east coast. I've been practicing both photography and videography for going on 10 years now and from the moment I picked up a camera I absolutely fell in love with it. Its difficult to not sound cliche but capturing once in a lifetime moments and then seeing the reaction of clients and their families is a rush and satisfaction that you just can not get anywhere else. Not everyone in life is able to realize their passion but I am thankful that I have found mine and I wouldn't trade it for the world.

I wish I could give Lionel more than 5 stores because he truly is an immaculate photographer. My husband and I decided to have a smaller, more intimate wedding and Lionel elevated the entire day for us. From pre-ceremony pics, during the ceremony and afterwards he was absolutely professional, joyous to my hubby and our guests and he captured all of the quirky moments that are the essence of our love. He has a keen eye for detail and finds beauty in every aspect of the room to capture. I highly recommend Lionel aka Brotha with a Camera for your wedding needs no matter how big or small.

I bought my first DSLR camera in 2004 when my now wife, Tracey, and I were taking a cruise to Alaska. For a monumental trip like this, I HAD to get an amazing camera. Those 8.2 megapixels with nine four points had me in LOVE. Ever since then, the ability of a photograph to be able to freeze time; freeze an emotion; freeze a memory has kept me addicted. Whether it’s getting a great angle, finding light that tells the story, or capturing the true personality of someone; it all brings a smile to my face and hopefully yours!

Chris photographed our wedding in October of 2021 and did an INCREDIBLE job. We started with an engagement shoot that was a great way to practice for our wedding day. We learned all of the popular poses so that on our actual wedding day we didn’t feel awkward posing. He was incredibly organized and thorough throughout the entire process and the results were perfect. The entire day was planned out and he photographed every shot we wanted. We also had a beautiful wedding video and I had special requests for the video that he easily accommodated! The entire day ran smoothly thanks to his organization. He was extremely professional but we also had SO much fun. I felt like I was with a friend throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Chris for any event.

Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.

Veronica and her co make-up artist were both amazing. They made all of us look absolutely wonderful on my wedding day. The goal was soft glam because I prefer natural and they definitely delivered. They showed up in advanced to set up and had us all ready with more than enough time for putting on our dresses. In addition, Veronica was so pleasant to work with. I also enjoyed my trail make-up session, it was amazing and I would suggest using your trail day for your rehearsal dinner make-up because it’s done very nicely. This was my first time getting my make-up professionally done and I’m glad I trusted Veronica to do it. I didn’t feel like it was too much and I still very much felt like myself looking in the mirror! We were also concerned about having someone that could do darker and lighter skin make-up since I had a wedding party that consisted of both and she and her co-artist did an excellent job!
