The Pros Weddings was great to work with for our wedding photography. They were very easy going and precise in their communication, always responding quickly to emails and calls with the details we needed. On the wedding day itself, they were extremely professional - they made sure to capture all the special moments within our requested time window and did so very efficiently.

Hi, I'm Kelsey! I'm blessed with a loving husband, 3 kitties whom I adore and a plethora of interests. I love hiking with my husband, martial arts, playing music and singing, I'm crazy about animals, I'm absolutely fascinated by linguistics and other cultures. Also, & to my hubby, I'm rather nerdy (you'll see me rolling around in my limited edition Iron Man Hyundai, haha), so if you're into Star Wars, superheroes, etc., I'm sure we will get along just fine ;). What did I say about a plethora of interests? I've been doing photography passionately for at least 14 years. Any talent I have is God given and I do this all to bring fame to His name!

Our photos speak for themselves. It rained our entire wedding day but you’d never be able to tell. Kelsey is amazing. Even though we were able to get a lot of outside photos, the ones taken inside were just as beautiful. She captures every moment. Not only does she take amazing pictures, she also is outstanding to work with. She is very responsive and easy to talk to. She also makes you feel so comfortable and confident when taking pictures. Kelsey, you’re the best and we are so thankful for you this entire wedding process. From engagement to wedding photos, we couldn’t be happier. Thank you!! Book Kelsey!!

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

Snowdrop Creative Co. 

3.8

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,300
  • Serves State College, PA

Snowdrop Creative Co. was born from a dream. A dream that I could do the things that I LOVE, be present for my children and my partner, and create work that I am proud of. It sounds like what we all wish for, right? Well, it isn't always so simple as "I want this, so I'm doing it." I spent ten years in retail management. I spent long days away from my family, only to get home to them and be too tired to enjoy my time with them. My life was cold and dreary, and I knew something had to change. And so, Snowdrop was born. A place where I can create and love what I do. Capture memories and magic and joy in a single moment.

We booked Alexandra with Snowdrop Creative Co for a family photo session. Our toddler is a very active and spicy toddler, and Alexandra's patience with him paid off! She gave great suggestions for poses or things to try with him (swing him up in the air to get him to giggle, swing him while we walk, let him "race" and run towards her) and despite my anxiety about being able to get any usable photos (we've failed with other photographers in the past), we got several! She was totally willing to roll with it and let him do some exploring while she worked on candid shots of the family and it turns out those were our favorites. We got some fantastic posed family shots, but her patience and flexibility with letting our toddler drive the session got us some incredible relaxed family photos that don't look awkward or rehearsed. I'm so grateful for her experience and expertise! She was wonderful to work with, and had top notch communication throughout the entire process.

My name is Maddie and I'm the photographer behind Eternally Wild. With a camera in hand, I capture stories that would have otherwise become lost - the ones memories can only hold for so long before they fade away. I capture nature and lovers and soulmates in their most fleetingly beautiful moments. I believe photography is magical. Photographs remember the past in vivid color and tell the best love stories without words. They are reminders that we were, are, and will always be eternally wild.

I met Maddie through instagram when I was on the hunt for some second shooters. Maddie was reliable, thorough, great with my clients, willing to help wherever, creative, and just an overall fun person to be around! She was always ready and up for the next part of the day. I have LOVED watching her business grow and become all that she dreamt of. Her growth shows her commitment to her passion and drive to make her business better for her and her clients everyday.

We loved working with Christie Heimbach Photography for our wedding! Communication with Christie and our photographer Skye was super easy and quick - Christie always responded promptly to texts. We used an associate from her team, Skye, as our photographer which was a great option for our budget. The quality of Christie’s work is gorgeous - she has an amazing editing style that really brought out the best in our photos. For our rainy engagement shoot, Skye went the extra mile, trekking into mud and rain to capture candid shots of us laughing together. She made us feel at ease in front of the camera, guiding us into flattering poses while still keeping things lighthearted. We are obsessed with how our photos turned out - Skye perfectly captured the joy of our big day. They gave us stunning images we'll treasure forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I worked with Paul for both our engagement session and wedding. Knowing nothing about CIP, we decided to work with them due to the affordability of their wedding packages and ample portfolio photos. It was important to us that we found someone who could capture both the sappiness and the goofiness of our relationship, and Paul nailed it. Not only was he personable and entertaining, he also knew exactly what he was doing. He asked us the right questions prior to the big day and made sure we knew what to expect, and he slid very easily into the role of MC, which made the event run so much smoother. Not only that, but the turnaround time for photos was FAST, which was definitely a pleasant surprise! I have nothing but praise for Paul and the CIP team and am so thankful we got the pleasure of working with them.

Most of Daniela's work centers around the human experience, our shared existence, and the quest for revealing the truest form of each person that she documents.

Awarded Best of Zola
Dani and I have known each other for 15 years, which is wild within itself. I’ve watched her photography journey for a long long time. Which is why the second we got engaged I KNEW we would hire her. We had an engagement shoot, as well as an “our day” vow shoot. Let me tell you, my husband and I are very much “guide us and we’ll follow” people. We’re indecisive, we’re go with the flow people, and that’s not always easy to work with. Dani from day one has guided us and taken care of EVERYTHING. From giving us options/ideas and brainstorming, to nailing the plans in place once we decided what we wanted to do. We had our vow day shoot in the Dolomites in Italy. Sebastian and I have never traveled like that together and Dani literally planned everything including what hike we were taking and timelined everything out. Which is exactly what we explained we needed and were looking for when working with her. She took everything we wanted and what we explained we wanted each experience to be like, and she nailed it. Nailed the photos. Nailed the locations. Nailed being an all around fantastic and easy person to work with. She also stayed in contact with us throughout the entire 2 years we have been planning together. She was our cheerleader, our planner, our listening ear, without a doubt I would recommend her to everyone and anyone. Not to mention these photos are to die for, and everyone is obsessed!

I am the 'picnic elopement in the woods' or 'weekend campsite celebration' or 'screw it, let's get married at a Waffle House' photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
Maya is one of the most wonderful, genuine, and detailed photographers I've ever met, and I've worked with a lot of photographers in my line of work! My partner and I chose Maya first for our engagement photos because of their dynamic, warm style, and ended up enjoying working with them so much that we decided to book them for our wedding! My partner is quite shy and doesn't enjoy his photo being taken, but Maya made him feel so comfortable and confident. We are an LGBTQ couple, and Maya made us feel so valid and loved expressing who we are. Maya was so communicative throughout the whole wedding planning process, and constantly provided us with resources to help us with our general planning. Maya and their co-photographer took so much care and detail on the day of the wedding to get every small detail to every huge moment. Everything worked like literal clockwork, everything felt super chill and fun, and even shooting large family photos (with way too many cousins) ended up being a breeze! Maya truly cares about their work, especially their clients. We could not recommend Maya enough!!!

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Awarded Best of Zola
I came across Mae’s work when looking for a photographer for engagement photos in Central Park, and I was immediately impressed with Mae and knew we were going to be incredibly happy with the results. Mae responded immediately to all my questions, day or night, and took the time to video chat with me at length twice before the shoot to discuss what we were looking for in our photos. Before the shoot, I had sent her a few examples of what I liked, and not only did the photos come out exactly how I wanted them, but were even more perfect than I envisioned. The engagement shoot itself was so much fun, and Mae made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process, despite us thinking we’d both feel awkward getting posed photos of us taken. Mae truly had a vision for what poses, locations, and lighting would work, and the execution was perfect. Some of the feedback we got from our friends was that the photos looked like a magazine, and that they were “ethereal.” Even better, Mae somehow got us the edited photos back within 24 hours of the shoot. Her pricing is also incredibly reasonable given the quality of her work, meticulousness, and experience in photography, as well as the very quick turnaround time. My fiance and I truly cannot recommend her enough, and we are excited to work with her again in the future. She is truly an artist, and any couple would be incredibly lucky to work with her!

Layla was a WONDERFUL photographer. We knew from our engagement shoot that she would bring the same positive, warm, and comforting vibe to the wedding day but she exceeded expectations. She brought a second photographer (per our request) that we hadn't met before but both of them connected with all of our wedding guests, captured the most beautiful, intimate, and representative moments. We were sad when they left but not for the lack of photography! It took about 6 weeks to get our photos and they were amazing - we got nearly a thousand edited shots from the day, meaning we'll get to relive the entire night for the rest of our lives.

I love, love. And yes, that is cliche to say as a wedding photographer who literally makes a living telling your love stories through photos. But heres the thing: if I didnt, I’d be a terrible photographer. So, be glad, right? Kidding aside, every wedding I walk into is like a dopamine boost. No two weddings are ever the same and I love the differences in all of your stories. I pride myself on getting to know my couples personally and on a deeper level. We become actual friends. I want to know all your quirks and idiosyncrasies that make you who you are.

The best decision of my entire wedding and maybe life was choosing Tara as my photographer!!! I cannot say enough amazing things about her work, it makes me want to cry thinking about the amazing experience I had with her from start to finish! She is a one of kind person and photographer. She made every dream and vision of mine come to life, from my engagement photo shoot to the day of my wedding I was in the best possible hands. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable and at ease on our wedding day. Our venue gave us a rushed time frame for pictures on site and Tara eased all of our anxiety with her expertise and personality. I will be hiring Tara for every major event in my life from here on out!! I would do it 10000 times over and I'm so happy I get to look back on these incredible pictures and moments that she was able to capture. I wish I could share them all on here so everyone could get the full effect! Not a single picture I don't love.

John was absolutely amazing. Without him my wedding would not have been as successful as it was. He went above and beyond his photographer duties. He really made the day special. I cannot thank him enough for his services.
