Love Knot Photography

  • Serves South Padre Island, TX

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
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Hey there! I'm christa, a Texas-based high-end/luxury wedding photographer. I'm passionate about capturing your most precious moments. With a blend of artistry and storytelling, I travel nationwide to turn your wedding into a visual masterpiece. Let's create a stunning visual narrative together!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the first time I came across Christa’s work, I just knew she was the perfect photographer for us. She has such an eye for capturing moments. Not only were the photos we got filled with moments of pure joy and love, but they look like they belong in a magazine! On top of the most perfect photos I could have hoped for, she got us 100 photos within days and we had the rest within a couple weeks and that was with her dealing with a storm that caused a power outage. Christa is above and beyond amazing! She was so easy to work with and gave excellent direction. My husband is especially uncomfortable in front of a camera, but Christa put us both at ease. 1000/10 would wholeheartedly recommend!

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

Amber’s ability to capture the honest, meaningful and organic emotions of the day makes her one of the most sought after wedding photographers. She has spent years crafting a unique one of a kind experience for her clients with a combination of digital and film images. Her signature photography style is best described as chic, timeless and natural. She believes a wedding day should be documented through the eyes and heart of her clients, capturing the fleeting moments that they never want to forget.

Amber made me feel so beautiful and confident on my wedding day. Taking pictures with her felt so natural, just like she was there to really capture the day rather than us constantly posing, which I really appreciate. I was absolutely stunned when we got our gallery back. The care that Amber puts into composing the perfect image speaks for itself when you see the final product. There was no detail missing and i’m so glad we have these to look back on for the rest of our lives. I recommend Amber to all my newly engaged friends because the experience is unparalleled - she is the best!

Photography for me started at a young age. Multiple family members were photographers, someone always had a camera in hand, always capturing each moment. As I got older I truly learned what it meant to only have a memory in a photo, and my passion has never ended. I love capturing life, and each and every moment of it.

Heather was more than we could have ever imagined. From engagements, bridals, bachelorette, wedding & anniversary she has been absolutely amazing. Her work is unmatched and her personality makes you feel like you’re working with a friend. The communication before scheduled dates and events was so appreciated and very thorough. Choosing to work with Always Photogenic Photography is the best decision we could have made for our wedding adventures & now we are so thankful to have a lifetime photographer and friend. We would choose her every time.

We are passionate about photographing kind-hearted people who are unapologetically themselves, and creating a safe and beautiful space in the wedding world for LGBTQ+ folx. Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

Awarded Best of Zola
When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

Hey there! Since you are trusting me to capture these special moments in your life, I figured you should probably know a bit about me, right? I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

My style is rooted in an editorial approach, allowing me to narrate your unique love story through timeless images that highlight genuine emotions. I prioritize unscripted moments, such as the reaction of your spouse as you walk up the aisle, the inside joke that makes you break out in laughter or the tears as your loved ones share thoughtful memories during toasts. These intimate details hold immense significance to me. As your photographer, I bring a heartfelt and genuine perspective, ensuring that your wedding day is portrayed in a way that truly reflects you and preserves the memories you'll cherish forever.

Lucia is the photographer you want at your wedding. She was a gem leading up to the day and a wonderful cheerleader and support on the day. Her photos are the ONLY pictures I have ever liked of myself. As a plus-size bride, that is saying something. Her attention to detail as she captured the unique features of our day are so special! Having someone you can trust to capture all the work you have put in is important, and Lucia showed up and absolutely gave it her all! We highly recommend Lucia, and we hope to work with her again for additional photoshoots!

Jenni and her team did a phenomenal job capturing our wedding day. We felt so comfortable from the moment we first met with her and that definitely translated to how easy it felt taking direction from her for our wedding day photos. Her team took time to get to know us and figure out what we were comfortable with so it felt natural (we're not the most comfortable in front of the camera but somehow she figured out how to get those sweet in the moment shots without it feeling forced!). The photos turned out stunning. From the formal portraits to our mountain top vows to the sweetest candids she captured of me and my dad and my adorable nieces and nephews there’s seriously so many amazing photos to choose from. I also appreciated how organized she was with our formal portrait list keeping it quick and everyone ready to move through those as soon as possible. Cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much Jenni! We absolutely could not dream of better photos!

Based in the heart of Nashville and journeying with couples worldwide full-time since 2018, I specialize in crafting timeless, low-stress, editorial images and elevated, audio-centric cinematic wedding films. For the free-spirited and the adventurous, for the lovers of art and bold style, your dream wedding memories await. Everyone deserves to have their wedding captured with care, creativity, and kindness. I can't wait to create an amazing experience for you and your partner.

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! :)

I truly found a love for storytelling once I got into weddings. Weddings are these multifaceted microcosms of stories and relationships that continue to keep me fascinated and excited about capturing them. I find that my style leans towards an editorial, documentary storytelling side, with hints of sophisticated moody & edgy. You feel the emotions of the moment when looking back on your photos I have captured just for you.

Jess took our HUGE family photo shoot and handled all of us with ease and made literally and truly photos to treasure. We did a family photo shoot for our parents 50th wedding anniversary October of 2023. Our first family photos in 17’ish years. She has such a particular eye for making a large group feel and look so close in photos (which is hard with 6 kids spouses and kiddos and our gramma who was 95 at the time (almost 96 now). She made each pose, move, placement fun and kept the kiddos (and pup) into it. She gave such professionalism and love into everything she did with us that day. She was as much a part of our family as anyone could be handling all of us un photogenic turkeys. If you choose anyone for your independent, business, family, engagement/wedding or otherwise photos you should definitely choose Jess 3

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!

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!

Welcome to my page! I am a wedding and elopement photographer from sunny central florida! I know many people can feel uncomfortable in front of the camera but I am here to change that! I always try to become friends with my couples versus just a vendor because I feel like that makes the day go so much smoother. If you want a photographer thats there to help you get ready but also ready to party on the dance floor then look no further! I find the best photos are taken when you become a part of the wedding versus standing on the sidelines.

Dominique was such a pleasure to have for our wedding! We met before hand to discuss the vision I had, she provided so many ideas since I honestly didn’t know what I was looking for. The day of the wedding Dominique was attentive and got every special moment on camera. On top of her photography skills, she made the environment just super chill which I appreciated since I was so stressed. It was like talking to a girl friend through out the night.

If you are looking for your photographer to create beautiful, fine art images that you can look back on years to come and remember how you felt just by looking at a picture, I think we're a perfect fit! I'm here for the relationships and memories that matter and to capture all of your real moments that make your life so amazing! Working with me is knowing your final product speaks to who you are as a couple (as well as gaining a friend for life). I'm not just your wedding photographer..I'm your forever photographer! Ready for your next step? Check out our packages and message me to chat and start planning!

Rachel and her team made our stressful and busy day absolutely wonderful, and now that we have our photos back, there is no denying that they were THE standout of all of those that we booked! The only thing that I would change is that she now has a new addition of a content creator that I have no doubt would be amazing! Our package included film and polaroids and Super 8 for Wedding Day and the night before. From a boudoir session in her amazing studio, a Welcome Dinner on a sailboat, different getting ready locations and all around our venue, each part was unique! Getting ready, first touch, the ceremony, cocktail hour, portraits, reception, and golden hour each have a unique different focus, which I absolutely love. The polaroids were an amazing touch, and the different types of film were such a vibe! I could not ask for more to have captured our memories and make them feel timeless! Of all of the research I had attempted to do to look for a photographer, Rachel was perfect and surpassed expectations! She and her team were flexible, experienced, professional, and have tremendous range. It was so evident that they put in work before the events to know what we were looking for. She even has great recommendations for other vendors and her connections show how well respected she is. Rachel also has a wonderful personality that seems to click with anyone. Rachel was wonderful to work with from the start. She had clear and consistent communication and it’s obvious that she is professional that loves what she does, and through our multiple sessions I had no doubt that she had our best interest in mind and was happy to be behind the camera and supporting us. The team was constantly multi-tasking, aware of what was going on, caused no concerns for us, but also always seemed to be in the right place at the right moment. She and her team were more than familiar with our timeline, what we wanted most out of the day, and needed no reminders, and as things will inevitably happen, they were quick to adjust with a smile. Time goes by so quickly during the events, and she and her team were always prepared and making what we had hoped and planned for happen! After our initial inquiry, Rachel responded quickly and we scheduled a video call, during which she was super engaged and attentive! We could tell that she really listened to what we shared we were looking for and seemed genuinely excited for what we were planning and happy to be a part of it. Her service guide and contract were clear and so were expectations. My husband and I could tell from the start that she not only had a great eye but had the business part of what she does down as well. There wasn’t a single instance during the period of time we worked together that I had doubts or felt on edge about our decision to go with her or that the end product from her team would be lacking. She checked in often and asked for a detailed questionnaire and mood board not only as a part of the inquiry, but also closer to the day which I loved as over months and months of planning things do shift and change. They did a great job of capturing candid moments and getting group shots. They were somehow able to let us enjoy the experience but also get those specific shots we’d requested. They were able to make each part of the day fun, memorable, and unique. We are so happy to say that we have traditional family portraits, candid, and even photos that look editorial!

I started my journey as a portrait & fashion photographer, primarily in London, England working with modeling agencies before moving to America with my husband 6 years ago. I would describe my style as modern, moody, and timeless. More so after raising my two boys, I began changing my photography direction toward couples & their unique love stories. I strive to capture each raw moment that truly captures this memorable day for you both. With an editorial background from the likes of Vogue, I also incorporate romantic poses that truly make each couple shine. This guarantees beautiful imagery to look back on for years to come.

Heather was a fantastic photographer and really spent the time with us to take all of the photos we wanted. From beginning to end it was flawless knowing she was there and always close by to get some candid unplanned photos that were in the moment. I was able to call her name and get her to come take a photo with my 91 year old grandmother spontaneously without missing a beat. There were 2 brides for this wedding (myself and my now wife) and she made sure to make us both equally feel important and special and took all the photos we wanted and more of us together and separately (when we were getting ready) and also made our dog Jax feel special because he was apart of the wedding also. She was one of the best photographers I have worked with, and I work with them every day in the fashion world, and mainly wanted to hire a really great wedding photographer like Heather, and we are so glad we did! She is excellent and I highly recommend hiring her for your special 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 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.

At Chelsey Rae Evans Photography, we offer intimate elopements, wedding celebrations, and engagement sessions. My goal is to create an elevated experience using intentional artistry and an editorial style that allows you to feel your best self while finding joy in effortless moments. I'm very easy going, and you'll never be pressured to be anyone but yourself! If you cherish your wedding day photos and want moments that wow while making you feel your natural, beautiful self, then we're the right fit! Think of documentary photos that set the scene and tell a story in a fashion-forward way.

John and I got engaged in our hometown but decided to do a destination wedding. We found dozens of photographers but Chelsey's photos really stuck out to us because it was exactly what we wanted. We reached out and she got back to us the next day (We messaged her at like 11 at night). From there on, she personalized the entire experience for us, all the way from meeting for the first time, planning our style and what we wanted, down to the exact fine details of specific shots that we wanted (And many more that she recommended) . I had no idea how detailed photography can be! But when our pictures came back, I simply could not believe the level of attention she took. Chelsey is not just great at what she does, she's very friendly and is truly genuine in caring about the people she works with. Girl... if I can nominate you somewhere, let me know. I'll fill that form out immediately! :)
