Meredith did my hair and makeup for my wedding day and I couldn’t be more grateful. I asked for a natural look and wanted my hair half-up. I never felt more beautiful! My aunt needed her hair done as a last minute add on and Meredith didn’t skip a beat. She was super helpful and made it happen. I would highly recommend her to make you feel special on your big day.

Hey there! Welcome to my Zola page! I am a NYS based traveling wedding photographer! I grew up in Rochester, NY and have always had a love for photography! Here at Natalie Plunkett Photography, I hold both myself and my photographers accountable for being not only being a positive influence, but also a respectful and supportive person. My studio empowers the ideal of everyone is a person, regardless of gender, race, and religion.

Natalie was such a sweetheart! Took the cutest photos of my boyfriend and i in a flower field. The candid ones we didn’t even know she took were the best part. She effortlessly captures the moment. She made the environment so friendly and comfortable. The experience was so fun and we got everything we dreamed of and more with our photos. I’ve already reached out to have her take more photos for me!

Hey y’all! I'm Michaela, the face behind Savvy Sapphic. I’ve been obsessed with party planning since I was a kid. In 2023, I married my partner, Gwen. And while planning our wedding, I found that there weren’t many resources available for queer or non-traditional marriers like us. So, I decided to create my own planning service that specializes in alternative events. From epic queer weddings to mind-blowing themed bashes, I'm here to create a celebration that's totally unique and totally you! Let's make your special day an absolute blast! ✨🌈💍

Savvy Sapphic Events LLC was absolutely phenomenal to work with for our wedding! From the very first call, Michaela and Glenn were incredibly communicative, responsive, and attentive to all of our needs. They did an amazing job of keeping us on track with planning and making sure every detail was taken care of leading up to the big day. On the wedding day itself, Michaela and Glenn were a calming presence and made sure everything ran smoothly behind the scenes so my husband Jonathan and I could fully enjoy ourselves. Glenn even went above and beyond to help make sure I was calm and ready for the day. We are so grateful to Savvy Sapphic Events for helping to make our wedding day perfect in every way!

She is professional in quality and demeanor combined with a friendly, sweet and spunky personality.

She truly worked behind the scenes to catch all of the moments and photograph all of the keepsakes in a spectacular display. Haley and her team made sure everyone was comfortable and had genuine smiles for all of our formal photos and captured all of the candid moments as well. There is not another photographer in the Houston area that we will recommend other than Haley and we cannot wait to work with her again in the future.

I started photographing weddings in 2017. I originally got my first camera to photograph landscapes- National Parks specifically. But the second the camera was in my hands, I was immediately drawn to photographing connections between people. Since that moment I haven't hesitated while my heart led me in the direction of wedding and elopement photography! I love documenting the in-between, unprompted moments; the subtle way your partner glances over at you with a side smile when you're not paying attention, the groom fiddling with his new ring, and the uncontrollable laughter when you're melting into each other during your couple's photos.

We had the pleasure of having Tammy shoot our engagement photos, as well as our entire wedding day. As many others have stated, we would highly recommend her for not only her gorgeous photos but for her relaxed and personable style. Throughout the entire process Tammy communicated with us to be sure she was giving us exactly what we were looking for in terms of style/structure. The day of our engagement shoot, we had unexpected weather but thankfully she was flexible and responsive in moving the time for our shoot to accommodate the unexpected rain. Despite the fact it was cold and rainy, she happily worked with us to get all (plus more) of the photos we were expecting. Between both our wedding and engagement shoots, Tammy did a fantastic job working in all of the ideas we had envisioned. We had to downsize our wedding and had plenty of unexpected restrictions due to Covid but Tammy continued to help support making our day special. We would recommend Tammy to anyone looking for beautiful, candid, relaxed yet fun photos and we look forward to future opportunities of working with her!

Welcome to Franzi Annika Photography, where elegance meets the artistry of visual storytelling. We are Franzi and Martin – a husband-wife duo. While our European roots shape our style, our dedication to the art of photography is what guides us. Through our in-the-moment, meticulous focus on the finer details, we create a collection of genuine narratives preserved on film. These photographs will continue to reflect the emotional depth of your celebration for generations to come.

You won’t find photographers more skilled or personable than Franzi and Martin! They photographed our engagement in Charleston, SC, rehearsal dinner and wedding in Boston, MA. We cannot recommend them highly enough for your next engagement session, wedding, or event! Working with them was a dream and we feel so lucky to have met them. First, if you took all the photography away, Franzi and Martin will enhance your wedding day just by being a part of it. They are warm, funny and fit right in with the gals/guys and families. They also got along and coordinated so well with our venue, floral designer and planner - everyone loved working with them. We all felt so comfortable around them and this is reflected in the natural, beautiful photos. They are also incredibly professional, prepared and organized. The morning of the wedding, they had already scouted and planned all of the locations for the first look, family and bridal party photos, and husband/wife shots. We didn’t have to do or think about a thing in terms of photos the entire day - we just followed their lead! During the ceremony and reception, they were so subtle in taking their photos. We were able to enjoy the day without it feeling like a photoshoot. The photos were simply stunning. We have gotten so many compliments on how unique and personal our photos are. Most importantly, they feel like us, because Franzi and Martin got to know us throughout this process. We had such a hard time putting together an album because we had too many favorites to choose from! One of the guiding values for choosing our wedding vendors was to find true artists who are passionate about their craft and then trust them to work their magic. Franzi and Martin are just that - artists. We wanted them to have complete creative control and freedom and would encourage everyone who works with them to do the same - your photos will be gorgeous, and your wedding day memories will be made better because Franzi and Martin were there.

I love mexican food, cats (and dogs!), and iced coffee. Books are my best friends, and I also double as a yoga teacher when I'm not doing photography related things. I have a weird obsession with fuzzy socks and I prefer movies over TV shows. Now on to the typical things you want to know about my journey in photography...I got my first camera in 2009 and basically haven't put it down since! I studied photography at Savannah College of Art and Design and started my freelance photography career when I graduated in 2016!

Growing up, I was obsessed with magical love stories. Fairy tale love stories always left me with a euphoric feeling. I now get to document these stories being a professional photographer, & I LOVE IT! This is not a job for me but a passion that I am grateful to pursue. There are many good photographers out there, but what makes me unique is my passion for what I do. I will do anything to capture the most intimate moments for you to enjoy for a lifetime. If I must get in a tree, lay in a mud puddle, or wade in water to get the perfect shot, I will do it!

Caitlin Gregory Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From our first interaction, Caitlin demonstrated a detailed, responsive, and friendly communication style that put us at ease. We didn't want a huge production and had a small wedding, and Caitlin met us where we were and provided customized services that exceeded our expectations while maximizing our budget. On the day of our wedding, she was calm, cool, and collected. She somehow managed to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera, which is no easy feat for two people who typically don't enjoy posed photos (or being the subject of photos period). The preliminary images Caitlin captured were truly stunning, showcasing the joy and energy of our ceremony and reception in the beautiful documentary-style we were hoping for. I also have to say that I am blown away at how she captured so much so unobtrusively; I had been a little apprehensive thinking back to how "in the middle of everything" photographers had been at other weddings I've attended, but Caitlin wasn't like that at all. Her talent and attention to detail resulted in a wonderful set of photos that we will cherish for years to come -- and we haven't even received the final, finished collection yet! We couldn't be happier with the value and quality of Caitlin Gregory Photography's work and will definitely try to book her for additional sessions as we start to grow our family. Thank you so much, Caitlin!

Hi, we’re Chris and Audrey! A husband and wife photographer-videographer duo located in sunny Pompano Beach, South Florida who loves to travel the world. His Light & Co. was first born out of a desire to share God's love with couples as they begin a new chapter of life together. But shortly after opening our doors, we also developed a deep passion for capturing wedding films and images that are as unique as our couples’ love stories.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were referred to Chris by a friend who used him for their own wedding and had nothing but positive things to say. Well, it became immediately evident why. Upon first meeting through zoom, it was clear Chris was very personable, friendly, and attentive, and after speaking with him for only about 10-15 my fiancee and I already knew we were going to choose Chris. We have now had the opportunity to work with Chris on two separate occasions and honestly, they have been some of my favorite experiences to date. Chris is very warm and friendly, he's easy to have a conversation with but still very professional and the quality of his work has left us speechless, to be honest. I dont consider myself to be a model of any kind but when shooting with Chris he defintely makes you feel like you are the star and this is your show. We have no regrets in choosing Chris to be our photographer for one of the most important days of our lives and trust us, you wont either. He is freaking amazing and you will be able to tell right away. 10/10 recommended without question. Thank you Chris for making this experience as wonderful as you have.

Someday, years from now, someone close to you will ask about your wedding day - someone that may not have been able to be there, or a new friend or family member who you have welcomed into your life. As you sit on your couch and reminisce while sipping on a cup of coffee, rather than just telling them about your wedding day - I want you to be able to show them. Photographs have an amazing ability to freeze special moments in time. I want to do that for you.

Julia was a complete joy to work with for our engagement photos and then wedding! From the day we met I knew my (then) fiancé and I would be able to relax and be comfortable in front of her camera. She was so much fun to work with and had us in beautiful but still comfortable poses/positions. Her and her husband shot our wedding and they were so patient throughout hectic family photos. We can't recommend Julia enough!!

Thanks for stopping by! My name is Yanny (pronounced yaw - knee) and I'm a wedding, couples, and storytelling photographer in SWFL. Born and raised in the PNW I like to think that the moody and grey atmosphere from that world has found it's way into my photography style. Candid, raw, full of emotion, and photos that you can "feel" are what I live for! My wife and I live in Sarasota FL with our sweet little boy Moses and our crazy cat Martini. We love the easy-going lifestyle on the gulf coast and whenever I'm free you can find me either exploring a new coffee shop, thrifting, serving at my local church, or spending time with my family!

Hey y'all! Welcome and congrats on your engagement! I'm Aliyah, a photographer based in Texas, but available anywhere. If I'm not out shooting, you can find me listening to crime podcasts and chasing my two toddlers around. I'm a hopeless romantic and I've probably binged watched every cheesy Hallmark movie. I celebrate ALL love! I strive to make my couples feel comfortable and confident no matter what. I love to laugh and have fun so let's get this party started!

Aliyah photographed our engagement shoot and wedding in the summer of 2022. Her photos are absolutely beautiful and we love them so much!! We are truly overwhelmed by all the special moments that she captured. We were also so impressed with her turnaround time on sharing the photos, which were super easy to view and download via her online platform. But most importantly, we had so much fun working with her (and her assistant, Amani! Shout-out to Amani)! Aliyah is great to be around and made us feel totally comfortable. After our engagement shoot, it felt like she was an old friend by the time of the wedding and we were genuinely so happy to have her there. One of the best pieces of wedding advice that we have is to get a photographer that you think will mesh well with your friends and family, put you at ease with all the intense emotions of the day, and bring fun and positive energy to the party. Aliyah is all those things and more, and she has our highest recommendation.

I love it because I love my people and I love this earth and I love connection and growing things and all I ever want to do is preserve it.

Cecilia was our wedding photographer’s second shooter and we are so happy to have met her! My husband Earl was quite apprehensive about taking photos (he has about 2 smiles in him and then he’s over it!) but Cecilia hung out with the groom’s party before the ceremony and made all of the guy’s very comfortable and took some great candid photos! During pre-ceremony photos, in addition to taking photos, Cecilia was so kind and helped me with my train/veil when we were walking around the venue finding picture perfect spots!

Amanda Kelly Photo Co. was absolutely incredible to work with for our wedding. From our very first conversation, Amanda was clear, helpful, and even had a great sense of humor that put us at ease. Her communication was top-notch throughout the entire process. The quality of her work was simply amazing - the photos are perfect and absolutely gorgeous. Amanda listened closely to the vision I had for our wedding photos and went above and beyond to capture every special moment. We are thrilled with the final results and couldn't recommend Amanda Kelly Photo Co. more highly.

I started photography as a second shooter with another local photographer and I fell in love with it. I love every aspect of my job, from meeting new people to editing photos. There truly is nothing better than getting a message from my clients about how happy they are with their images and how much it means to them. I have traveled to Colorado, California, New York, Florida, Alabama-- All over for weddings! I LOVE to travel for my work. So if you like my work, but realize I'm not close by, still reach out and let's talk!

We are a husband and wife photography and videography team and have been shooting weddings for over a decade strong. The name says it all… we’re just different. If you don’t want cookie cutter video and images… look no further.

As a wedding planner since 2005, I have long standing relationships with so many photographers and video teams whose work I truly admire. When choosing who to work with for my own wedding day, I went with my gut! I knew Jenn and Colin could make me laugh and tell me when I needed to relax... I knew Jenn could put our nine groomsmen in-line when we needed to get a shot... I knew she would take plenty of detail photos because I told her one hundred times how important it was to me... Most importantly I knew that both Jenn and Colin would put their whole heart and energy into documenting our two day celebration in a truly genuine way, ugly cries and all! Thank you for allowing us to be ourselves... For capturing all the moments we never want to forget ... Jenn, Colin and team you have given us a treasure of memories to keep and for that we are truly grateful!

I’m originally from New York, and shortly after moving down south I found myself falling in love with a country boy and made the New River Valley, VA my home. I have had a passion for photography since I was a child, and when I finally decided to take the leap into my own photography journey I was very lucky to have the support of family, friends and other professionals. I’ve had the opportunity to have some amazing mentors along the way and have soaked up everything they took the time to teach me.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a vendor I wanted my own product presented clearly with detail and style. Alex did just that. She was extremely accommodating to my schedule, communicated with me often and clearly (for example, turn around time for editing her photos), and really knew what she was doing with lighting and attention to detail. Working with her was a pleasure, and my custom cakes and cupcakes have never looked more beautiful!

I love what I get to do!! It’s my PASSION! I enjoy capturing all of the beautiful and unscripted moments. I love how every wedding is different and each one presents its unique moments that I seek after. I also do photography but I gotta say, there’s something extra special about being able to bring those photos to life and turning them into your own movie, so that you can relive every moment of your day instead of just seeing them in pictures. You get to feel the emotions and relive the moments with loved ones.

Hi! A little bit about my business is I started Nanii Negron films back in 2020 with an "experiment". Which was, "What is it that I can do with my drone and camera". At the time I just decided to buy a Canon M50 and a Phantom Pro Drone, why you ask? I don't know either! Haha. All I know is God knew what he was doing. With a mentor & no experience, I can proudly say I own a profitable videography company going on 2 years strong! I love meeting new clients and creating that bond that feels like we have been friends for years! At Nanii Negron films we go above and beyond for our clients to create a beautiful and timeless videos!

I want you to be able to look back on these photos in 20 years and feel everything you felt on your wedding day. Together we’ll plan a day that doesn’t just fly by, but is full of fun, laughter, and memorable moments. No matter how your day plays out, it’s going to be magical, and I’ll be there every moment to capture it. I describe my work as documentary, timeless, and authentic. If this sounds like your vision for your wedding day, let's get this party started!

My husband and I cannot say enough good things about her and her work. We found Ally through my brother as he hired her for his wedding in Georgia. Even though our wedding would be in NJ, after seeing my brother's photos, my husband and I knew we needed to fly her up for our own wedding. Since Ally had never been to our venue before, she made sure to fly in a few days early and schedule a walk through of our venue. She had assured us that she does destination weddings frequently and would be able to adapt to any setting. She certainly kept that promise. By the day of the wedding, it was like Ally had been to our venue a million times. She knew all the best spots to take photos and transitioning from each of those spots was absolutely seamless. Another great thing about Ally is her demeanor. She is so kind, warm, and calm. Having a presence like that on your wedding day is priceless especially when you have a big family/wedding party. I cannot thank Ally enough for helping us pull together our family, friends, and loved ones so that we could take every photo we wanted to on the timeline we outlined. Not only is Ally extremely organized and professional but her work is amazing. Ally asked me to create a Pinterest board of photos I liked - on the day of the wedding, it was clear she had studied the gallery and knew the exact vibe I wanted. With or without the Pinterest board, she has her own great artistic eye and directed a lot of great shots. I expected to have a few photos I loved from my wedding day but Ally provided us with an endless number of photos we love. I have gotten multiple comments from friends/family on our photos and my cousin even wants to fly her up for when she gets married. We had some older relatives/grandparents at the wedding and it meant a lot to our parents that Ally was able to capture so many beautiful photos with them. On top of all of this, Ally is also extremely timely. Our wedding was on a Friday and by Sunday night we had our sneak peak which was 150-200 photos fully edited. She then provided our entire wedding gallery right on the timeline she initially stated. Not having to follow up or track her down for our photos was just the cherry on top of the entire experience. To summarize - I cannot recommend Ally enough whether that be for your wedding, engagement shoot, etc. Ally is responsive, kind, so talented, and helpful. Thank you Ally for capturing our special day!!

If you’re looking to hire a wedding photographer who can capture your big day in a “not so traditional” way, then you’re in the right place. We are Alternative Portraiture & Documentary Wedding Photographers based in sunny (and sometimes rainy) South Florida, and we like to think of ourselves as friendly, honest, and quirky (the good kind, we promise). We are creative beings at heart and love to tell stories unconventionally.

Erika is one of the most talented photographers I ever met. As wedding planner and designer I get to work with many great photographers but she is definitely one of my top to refer to. She will make you feel so comfortable, relaxed and you will have fun with this fun energetic lady who will capture every single moment of pure happiness. She is sweet, easy to communicate with and she gets you! Working with her is absolute pleasure every time!
