I love telling the messy, beautiful stories of life and each person’s own unique experience being human. I'm a people-person to my core and I thrive on creating a space where you can feel free to be your incredible self. I want us to know each other as real people, not just as commitments on each other’s calendars. Let's be friends and make photos that are lovely and messy and true. This is an inclusive, anti-racist space for all humans, all love, and all body-types. You, your love, and your story are welcome here. Come as you are.

Brittany was amazing to work with from start to finish! We absolutely loved how our maternity photos turned out and I still tear up looking through them. As people who aren't super comfortable taking photos to begin with, this whole process was a bit out of our comfort zone, but Brittany made the experience super enjoyable, comfortable, and fun which we really appreciated! She got to know us as a couple and did not ask us to do any overly posed shots which we loved. Plus we got our full gallery within a couple weeks! Highly recommend booking with Brittany for your photo needs. She's a wonderful human and super talented!

We loved working with Chelsea and Jack. The style of their photos was what we wanted—classic, timeless, natural and true to color.

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.

I have been professionally capturing images for over 10 years. During that time, I built a successful promotional marketing company in Canada, received my MBA in Ireland, and moved to the San Francisco Bay Area with my wife. My favorite part about photography are the stories that are captured, the frozen moments in time that each picture highlights. Over the course of my career, I have been asked to tell thousands of stories. With the ability to operate in the United States, Canada, and Europe, I’m no stranger to traveling for a good story.

Working with Harrison is always a pleasure. He is prompt, professional, and delivers top-tier quality. When first starting out he was happy to provide us advice, and has provided technical assistance onsite on a number of occasions. You can't go wrong when collaborating with Harrison on an event, or on anything else.

Hi! I’m so happy you’re here! I’m Christina and I’m an elopement and wedding photographer based in Olympia, Washington. I’ve been doing photography for over 10 years, but have been in business since 2017. I’ve been so lucky to have captured so many amazing memories for my clients and are willing to travel anywhere to document and capture your love story!

Christina is a wonderful photographer! My fiancée and I booked her as our photographer for our upcoming wedding and with her package, she includes an engagement shoot! We were able to schedule a date/time very easily. Christina made the shoot relaxing and didn’t force us to pose out of our comfort zone. She gave us suggestions on where to shoot around our venue, and let us be ourselves. She let us know that she’d have all the images all edited within 3-4 weeks, but she was able to get them to us in half that time. And the photos came out incredibly beautiful! We were able to download our set easily as a zip file and extract them directly on our phones to share on our social media pages. We both can’t wait for Christina to shoot our wedding!

I specialize in documenting weddings! I believe in images that are timeless, true to color, with a touch of moodiness and emotion. Photography is one of the biggest and most important investments you’ll make for your wedding day. Wedding photography isn’t just a financial investment. You’re also investing in a photographer who values and builds that relationship from the start, from planning a custom timeline with you, to going over all the details every step of the way leading up to the wedding day. I want my couples to be as involved in the creative process as I am. It’s all about the experience!

Chamblee Lenette Photography was by far the easiest wedding vendor that we booked. Her communication style was punctual, understanding, and thoughtful throughout the entire process. The quality of her work was truly professional, memorable, and long lasting. Working with Chamblee is like working with your favorite Aunt - she makes taking photos fun and comfortable. Her work truly captures the essence of the memory tied to each photo, telling our love story beautifully. Six years later, our wedding album is still my favorite keepsake from our special day.

I started my business during the pandemic because I wanted to do something I love. What better way to spend those extra pandemy bucks than on a ridiculous amount of cool camera gear. Who’s with me?! I’m also a cat dad, longboard surfer, hiker and big science fiction nerd.

We were one of the first couple weddings at the incredible Victoria Ranch in Vista. Daniel had shot events there in the past and led us to several very picturesque spots for photos. He was funny when we needed a laugh. He was patient when we needed some coaching. And he was thorough when we got to see our 450 picture wedding file!

Oh my lanta. Where do I begin? If we had to get married again, my first task would be to see if Rigg & Co was available and if not, I’d change my wedding date. I couldn’t imagine not having her there! First, Kate listens to what you want. My husband and I really wanted a lot of candid photos of us and our guests. We had an intimate wedding with our closest friends and family so it was important to us that she captured them in the moment! Mission accomplished and more. Second, Kate is so talented and also just a fun human to be around. There’s no awkwardness or that “is this a good pose? Am I doing what I’m supposed to?” feeling because she makes you feel so comfortable! It was like she was just a part of the family and fit right in. She really was there at every moment - the rehearsal, up very early the next morning to go to the farmers market where I picked out my flowers, the ceremony, the dance, everything! Looking back, I’m extra thankful for her and the long day she put in because every moment was captured beautifully and exceeded my expectations. It even rained during our ceremony and the way she captured us during it was magical! I also can’t leave a review without mentioning the video she made! I was blown away by this. The video is so well done and thoughtful and really special to us as we got married during COVID and we had people who could not attend. This video allows them to see all of the intimate details of our wedding without actually being there. We even hired her years later to do family photos with our doggo! She’s the best. I feel like I’m rambling but it’s really because I cannot say enough positive things about Kate - hire her!

YOU'RE ENGAGED!! Congrats and thanks for stopping by! My name is Jordan Scott, the Owner and Photographer of Wax + Whale Co. Photography! I'm a mama bear to a little guy named Vander Nash! Wife to my best friend of 12 years strong! I love drinking all the coffee, and LOVE! I have been doing photography for several years now and I am absolutely and forever in love with being invited to capture and share those raw intimate moments. The ones most people overlook, whether it's the snuggles, giggles, dancing, or just enjoying each others company. My goal is to capture and display that love and happiness in it's most raw and authentic form!

Jordan was in a word fantastic. Her moody beautiful style perfectly matched our fall-themed wedding. She and her second shooter listened to everything we had to say and captured everything important to us. She was also far along in her pregnancy (congrats again Jordan!) at the time and was so communicative and a trooper for us and our wedding. She also was able to get our photos out to us a little earlier than promised. I know that can never be guaranteed but we were so freaking excited when the link hit our inbox early! We immediately ordered several prints to hang in our home because we are so happy with them. All in all, super professional, personable, knowledgeable, and very committed to her passion. I would hire her ten times over and you won't regret it either.

We found Madison because she was an Alumni from same school, UCF, as me. We booked her to do an engagement shoot (an hour outside of Orlando) and our photos turned out absolutely amazing. From that one interaction with her, it really felt like we knew her our whole lives. She is super nice, personable, and made us feel very comfortable right away. She also had so much knowledge about the area, and any questions that we had regarding the shoot. She planned and timed everything out so that we could get photos at one location, and then sunset photos by the beach 30 min away. And then when we were looking for photographers for our wedding (in Philadelphia), it was a no-brainer that we wanted to book her again to capture our big day. She came halfway up the coast and played a large role in making our day perfect. We planned the photography from 1000 miles away, and she was really communicative and helpful about the picture planning, and also just wedding planning in general. We ran into a timing issue with how the day was going to work out before the ceremony, and she helped us navigate that, and she worked to keep us on track throughout the night for the different photos that we wanted. She knew what to do & what not to do in the Church. She also worked well alongside our videographer. Ultimately, we are very happy with our experience with Madison, and the wedding photos she took turned out absolutely amazing.

Hi, I’m Hannah. I’m a lover of art, stories, and spark—the perfect alchemy to creating and capturing all those memory-making, magical moments. Weddings, to me, are about your unique narrative, your origin stories and your threads of connection; the ways in which you’ve woven a love through a tapestry of compassion and inspiration and all that makes you you— both as individuals and as a couple. That’s the fabric of the photo, the material I like to work with; because of this, my photos lean atmospheric and candid.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Hannah was so easy, and the photos from our wedding were exactly what I wanted. I really wanted to maximize the amount of time I spent enjoying my wedding and guests, and Hannah's style was perfect for this – we got our posed portraits done quickly, and the rest of the time she was able to capture what was actually taking place at the wedding. In terms of pre-wedding prep, we met once before I signed the contract and then again about a month before the wedding to nail down details. Hannah was very communicative throughout the whole process, and she turned around 25 beautiful pictures within a week of the wedding for us to share around. I just got 200 more pictures back, and they are stunning. Hannah is such a talent, and I highly recommend her.

A dad, a son, a brother and a jack of all trades musician that loves to rock out any chance I get. I grew up in New York City. My inclination towards photography came from classic street photography and photojournalists from all over the world that told their stories through a lens. It made me pick up a camera and start shooting. Now, living in Maryland I shoot all sorts of stories and moments locally, domestically, and abroad. It's taken me a while to figure out what my "thing" is but I've come to figure out that I'm a milestone photographer. The moments your life that have proven to be meaningful -- I'll be there.

Sam has been a videographer at a wedding that I photographed before. It's so hard sometimes to communicate and mesh well with other vendors while working a wedding where there are so many moving parts and a timeline to stick to. Sam made that part easy! We got on the same page quickly and helped each other with shots the others wanted to get. Never got into each other's way and the entire day, start to finish it ran smoothly. I wish all videographers worked this well with fellow vendors. Makes the couples experience even better!

Like many people, I spent 10 years within corporate America and although I am thankful for my experience, it wasn't feeding my soul. I can be honest and say that I learned so much- my customer service skills, high-level organizational & strategy skills, and my overall work ethic comes directly from my experience within a regular ol' 9-5. However, I've been able to pair what I learned the last 10 years with my passion for photography, and have built this business to provide a stellar experience, the same one I would expect if I were getting married. Below I'll dive into what sets Loui apart, and I hope to hear about your upcoming day!

Meg is not only beyond talented but also the kindest human being. We are so grateful to have had Meg as our photographer, she did beyond an amazing job capturing our engagement photos and wedding photos. She is on top of everything, extremely helpful and so kind. I had multiple people come up to me raving about how great she was at our wedding. Definitely our favorite wedding vendor we worked with!

I’m Grace Troutman. I’m a wedding & elopement photographer who loves to frequent the West Coast, Hawaii, and the Midwest (where I grew up.) I approach working with my couples on their weddings from a place of trust and compassion, so I can document the day how it is true to them. No forced moments, no stiff posing, only true to life candid imagery. I’ve shot all over the world from Iceland, Ireland, & France to all over the Midwest, all the way to California and Hawaii, and I believe that you should say “I do,” in a place that makes you feel like home.

Awarded Best of Zola
Grace T Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, they were incredibly responsive and provided us with so much inspiration and guidance to help us plan the perfect day. Their team, including Hannah and Mike, were dedicated and fantastic. They captured our wedding in the most candid and romantic way. They helped us plan the flow of the day by contributing feedback and building the schedule, and we even got special moments, like a pair of bunnies that photobombed our engagement shoot! We couldn't have asked for a better photography experience and would highly recommend Grace T Photography to any couple looking for a talented and personable team to capture their special day.

I’m a small town girl living in the big city of San Diego. You know the saying, “Home is where the heart is?” For me it has two meanings. If home is a physical place, mine is the magical little town where I was born – Ojai, California. It is a place where people can breathe deep and feel the wholeness of their lives. It's a magical little valley of peace happiness. If home is truly where the heart is, then mine is my family. In 2016, I married my best friend and the father of our beautiful son and daughter. We are a squad of awesomeness and those three hold my heart in the palm of their hands.

If you want a photographer that is go with the flow ready for anything MORGAN is your girl! She is very responsive throughout the entire process before the event. She is kind and is always smiling which makes clients smile too! She is a hard worker (she shot a 16 hour day and took over eight thousand photos!!). She is full of energy and always has her camera ready to go at any moment! She is truly such a sweet and kind person! Her photos truly speak for themselves they are beautiful and will last a lifetime! Hire Morgan and you won't regret it!! :)

Courtney & Jackson are wedding, elopement & family photographers based in San Francisco, California but available for travel worldwide. We go wherever love takes you. Photoflood Studio is a wife + husband team from San Francisco, California. We are wedding photographers servicing NorCal to SoCal and beyond. Photoflood Studio specializes in wedding, engagement, and family photography. We aim to photograph life + love through an honest documentary approach. Our wedding, engagement and family photography is inspired by the beautiful wilderness, the culture of our coastal cities, and wherever you call home.

Courtney is the reason why we love Photoflood Studio so much! It's so important to feel comfortable and happy with someone that is going to capture one of the most important days of your life, and Courtney really goes above and beyond to really get to know you as a person and as a couple. She really knows how to make you feel comfortable and to just be yourself. (And I think that's key to a perfect picture.) Another great thing about Photoflood Studio was how professional and thorough they are. They reminded us of things we didn't even know we had to do and always checked in on us and made sure we were on track. Obviously the photos came out great~ but what makes Photoflood so special are the people involved. We were so lucky to have her not just as a photographer but also as a friend to talk to or ask for advice throughout the whole wedding planning process. She is an amazing photographer but also just an amazing person! Also shoutout to Jackson- we love you too! Thank you!

Meaghan here - I’m the one from which you’ll hear a lot of “Fuck yeah!!!” and “You guys look so hot!” My inspiration comes from our lord and savior, Janis Joplin, and my style is free movement and honesty. Howdy! I'm Brendon, a quiet Mid-Westerner turned East-Coast loud-mouth who happens to have a knack for photography, editing, graphic illustration, and all things creative. My background comes from shooting fashion shows and exclusive events for BFA.com around NYC, which made me appreciate the avant-garde.

We had a terrific experience working with Meaghan and Brendon of “Far Out Feeling.” If you’ve made it this far, you already love their style – their ability to capture both candid and staged photos artfully – and we are happy to report that the photographers have personalities to match. We loved meeting them for drinks months in advance of our wedding, which gave us a nice context for one another when the day finally came (we cannot imagine, now, not knowing our wedding photographers when they arrived to take pictures of us!) We perhaps didn’t consider how crucial this feeling of comfort was, but when you think about, you do spend a tremendous portion of your wedding day with your photographers. Meaghan and Brendon felt like friends, which made even the parts of the wedding that we don’t like (posing!) feel easy, natural, and fun. Meaghan and Brendon were incredibly responsive, from first to last. They always got back to us the day we had a question, and even weeks after our wedding, they were responding to our technical difficulties within minutes. And the photos themselves turned out great! Again, you’ve probably seen evidence of this already. We cannot wait to print them, frame them, and, in all likelihood, post them relentlessly to our Instagram stories. A huge thank you to Meaghan and Brendon, who we recommend whole-heartedly.

We are all here for you. All your family, your friends and I (yes, me too!) are here to honor you on your wedding day! As excited as I am to get to the dancefloor with you guys, I know a lot of planning goes into making your day special. As your photographer, I’ve been to a few weddings and am just a call or text away from any insight you might want. I approach every wedding with the same mentality, how can I tell the story of today in the most real way possible? I’ve found the best way to do that is to just be me. I allow myself to be present and listen to the stories unfold throughout the day.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were so pleased with using Gabe for our wedding photography. His work speaks for itself - beautiful compositions and use of light, and the ability to capture quick moments and candid shots. I felt super comfortable with Gabe which was very important to me because I'm camera-shy and awkward. He was very down to earth and easy to work with. Also, though he is based in PA he traveled to NY for our wedding and did an amazing job. We even travelled to PA for an engagement session, which I initially had no plans on doing - but those photos came out great as well and we had a lot of fun doing those to get warmed up. Strongly recommend Gabe, he's the best!

Hi, I’m Marla, and I’ve had a camera in my hands since I could hold one. Travel is what first sparked my love of photography– I felt the need to document every gorgeous landscape in my sights across Europe, Asia, the South Pacific, and here in the States. Once I started taking portraits, though, everything shifted, and I became obsessed with documenting love. I value photos as memories, and they’re extremely precious to me. To me, the ability to freeze a moment in time so you’ll always be able to return to that beauty and joy is nothing short of magic.

Seriously where to begin with how incredible Marla is as an incredible and artistic photographer, professional and organized business owner, and welcoming and beautiful person. She immediately makes you feel comfortable talking with her and she puts a ton of effort into getting to know you and your story. She cares so deeply about her couples and goes above and beyond with client experience before, during, and after your session with her. You spend a ton of time with your photographer, and this is who you want as your cheerleader, your confidant, and your friend on wedding/elopement day. Her eye for light is inspiring and you never again will say "I'm so awkward in front of the camera" because her posing is effortless and genuine. She brings out the best in you and your partner and your connection. Candid moments, deep emotion, and joyful forever memories! Marla is the photographer you've been looking for!

Emily was an absolute sweetheart from the moment she arrived, and insisted the special occasion called for her professional camera. Her generosity and professionalism meant everything to me on such a special day. I received hundreds of photos, both iPhone and DSLR shots, within 2 days. Emily totally exceeded my expectations from start to finish. Thank you SO much!
