I am a caffeine addict who never sleeps. I love a good thunderstorm and playing Candy Crush for the brain breaks. I adore all kinds of dogs, but I have a special love for German Shepherds. My all-time favorite thing is to sit by the fire with a glass of good cabernet or watch the ocean waves hit the beach. I love to garden and to build things (but I let my husband to finish all my projects LOL). I enjoy good food and will likely refer to a stand up comedy routine at least once in a conversation. I am also a football mom, lacrosse mom and basketball mom. Wife to a very understanding husband and emotional support person for my big puppies.

Our wedding day was nothing short of magical, and much of that was thanks to our incredible photographer, Silvia. From our first meeting, her calm demeanor and positive outlook put us at ease. Silvia has a unique ability to blend into the background, capturing candid moments that truly reflect the joy and love of the day. Her calm presence was a soothing force during the hustle and bustle, making us feel relaxed and natural in front of the camera. Every photo she took is a testament to her talent and passion for her work. Silvia didn’t just take pictures; she told our love story through her lens, and for that, we are forever grateful. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to capture our special day.

It doesn't matter if it's a lavish affair or if it's small & intimate, your wedding is a big deal! Weddings are crazy fun love filled days that go by so fast! You've put so much thought into this day & there are so many little details that will eventually fade. My job is to make sure you remember all the awesome little moments. If you're looking for an expert cake tester, who will keep your glass full AND constantly tell you how bomb you look, I'm your girl! I'm told I do a pretty great job at making people feel comfortable in front of the camera. So don't worry about being awkward, 'cause I get it & I gotchu!

We had 2 sessions - maternity and newborn. We wanted a cozy at home session and she nailed both of them. They perfectly capture the feelings of that stage and we'll cherish them so much as our kids grow up

Hey, how cool of you to end up here. I promise not to bore you with a bunch of flowery language or over-the-top promises. I love to document real moments. Weddings, elopements, couples' shenanigans - you name it, I am here for it. I do this with a healthy dose of humor, a dash of sarcasm and a whole lot of heart. So if you're looking for someone to capture your story in all its imperfect glory, say something, let's make it happen.

Loy at Sweet Lime takes some great photos. He was a joy to work with and helped set the room up by providing a suggestion that none of the restaurant staff, or us, had thought of which ended up working swimmingly. The day of the wedding, he was present but also not too if that makes sense. He was kind enough to send us a couple preview shots while we impatiently/patiently waited. The photos are well worth the wait. I would be happy to recommend Sweet Lime Photography. You will not be disappointed in his service.

I believe you can't stand behind your business unless you can say you fully understand it – and 24 years of marriage is proof that I KNOW LOVE. I set out to capture the essence of love when I started Parker Photography in 2018. I have been married to my best friend for the last 24 years, and people who meet us swear we are newlyweds. We still act like lovestruck teenagers with each other, that same feeling we get from every newly engaged couple that we meet. We know where our couples are coming from and what they hope to capture in their engagement sessions and on their wedding day, and we make it effortless for them to achieve their goals.

Hey there, thanks for dropping by! I’m Alyssa, the girl behind the camera. I'm a Northwest Arkansas native with a love of the Ozarks and all things local. I’m a University of Arkansas alumni, with an education in real estate finance and marketing. Outside of photography, you'll find me at the gym, out on walks, golfing, hanging with friends, enjoying NWA events, or hanging out in a coffee shop! I love fitness, yoga, health, being outdoors, traveling, concerts, exploring, and just enjoying life!

I cannot rave enough about Alyssa. Her attention to detail and professionalism as a photographer is top notch. After one meeting with her I knew I had to have her shoot our wedding. She really takes the time to get to know couples prior to the wedding day. It made everything go so smoothly and I was not the least bit nervous in front of a camera. After seeing our sneak peeks and engagement gallery I know that her images will be something we will love and cherish forever. She is an incredible person to work with and I know she will be our go to for any photography needs in the future.

I'm Meghan Ann Imagery! I'm an artist, storyteller, and lover of love. It's fitting I ended up as a wedding photographer, right? I'm based in Connecticut but wishing for the dream inquiries that will send me to Alaska, Colorado, or some place new.

Meghan was such a pleasure to work with and we kept saying over and over again throughout the wedding process, “We are so how grateful we booked her!” Literally you ask any of our family and friends what was the phrase we said the most throughout our wedding process was, “We absolutely love our photographer!” She made us feel relaxed throughout the entire process and truly helped us get not just the photos that we desired but BEYOND that. She is an absolute artist at finding the perfect shot and her positive attitude helps you feel at peace while you’re planning all the details of your wedding day. I can not recommend Meghan and her team enough. Absolute professionals!

Mariah R. Photography & Film 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Valmeyer, IL for additional fees

Light and bright, timeless photographs and videos for weddings and couples. ND, New England & CA based, available for travel. I describe myself as kind of Type A, kind of Type B. When it comes to photographing your wedding, I take a mixed approach of being a "fly on the wall" and guiding when appropriate. Lots of times my couples see their galleries and noticed things they had no clue even happened during the day. Candids and true documentary style photographs are what I strive to provide, as well as traditional photographs and poses.

Awarded Best of Zola
Mariah, with Mariah R. Photography and Film, was so amazing and made me feel like a true princess/queen on my wedding day. Prior to the wedding day, she communicated openly with me about everything and made sure I was ready to go. She provided me with example timelines to help plan my day which was extremely helpful!!! Before heading to my location, she had messaged me and asked if I needed anything before she arrived. Once Mariah had gotten there, she calmed my nerves, reassured me when my anxiety was heightened during the chaos, and communicated with me about every thing I needed. She captured my day perfectly. She was my number one supporter through the whole day! I just can’t boast about her enough. I highly highly HIGHLY recommend her to capture your special moments. You seriously won’t regret it.

WHO I AM: Hey!! I'm Natalie, a wedding and elopement photographer from Lincoln, Nebraska who serves couples all around Nebraska, Arkansas, Colorado and everywhere in between and around! I have been photographing weddings for 4 years and am still counting. Whether I am behind the camera or not I absolutely love to travel.
