I’m Monica Cassell, and I’m on a mission to ensure your photos are really damn good. When you choose me as your photographer, you’re not just choosing another vendor who’ll punch in and punch out. Hell no. You’re choosing a comprehensive client experience.

By the time you run through the sparkler tunnel to your getaway car, we’ll be so close you might just ask me to come with you (JK, unless it’s Disneyworld).

Working with Monica is amazing! My husband and I were worried that we wouldn't know how to pose, but Monica had us covered. She walked us through every movement and gave us prompts for natural laughs/smiles. Delivery time on the gallery was quick too. We truly enjoyed our time with Monica!

Kelsey Sheehan Photography was founded in 2019. I made the jump into being a professional photographer to follow my heart and work in a career path that I love! When I am not working you can find me baking with country or 90s/00s R&B blasting, sitting by the fire with my neighbors, doing yoga, kickboxing, jiu jitsu, or hiking with my family. Okay, and maybe binge watching Schitt's Creek, Gilmore Girls, or Grey's Anatomy for the hundredth time.

Kelsey is one of a kind! We were a bit nervous about the engagement photoshoot and many things went wrong that day, but she managed to calm us down and put us in a right mood! She was there for us and made us enjoy the photoshoot so much. We had a blast! And then when we saw the pictures I almost cried-she captured such genuine moments. She is highly professional, friendly, accommodating, and just a fun person to be around. We loved our photoshoot so much that we ended up booking a wedding with her too!

Sugar Land, TX
  • Photojournalistic style

Unposed, authentic and raw storytelling. I’m there for church weddings or a 5 mile hike up your favorite mountain. I see your vision and capture your day in all the real emotion that it is. Wedding photography is about remembering the season that you where in and everything that it meant to you, and that is what I completely intent to do.

Ally photographed our wedding back in 2020. She met us beforehand to discuss what exactly we were wanting. Regardless of the Covid protocols she made everything easy. Not only did she stay with us the day of our ceremony, she also took extra time to stay an extra day at our elopement spot to take photos of my husband and I all day. I’ve never felt more comfortable with any photographer. I’ve recommended her to all my friends and family. Not only was she a top notch photographer, but also just a top notch human. Could never say enough good things about her and her family. (If you’re looking for a videographer, check out her brother!) 100/10 would always recommend!

If you would have known me growing up, you would have been surprised if I didn’t become a photographer! I fell in love with photography after spending countless hours in the darkroom. Since 2008, I have been working professionally in the photography industry and have shot over 300 weddings and numerous other assignments in almost every genre of photography. Why Weddings? I love problem solving and puzzles, and I’m always up for a good challenge. For me, a wedding is a day full of all of the things that I love. Its basically a whole day of coming up with solutions to make the best photographs for my couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
Lisa did an incredible job of photographing our wedding and we couldn't recommend her more highly. She was super professional and responsive in the lead-up to the wedding, and on wedding day, she was organized, calm, and efficient, which we really appreciated given how much was going on that day. She brings a ton of experience and a real eye for detail and lighting, which we thought really showed in her photos -- they were beautiful!!! Our wedding day was a whirlwind, and while we loved it, it went by just as quickly as everyone said it would. When we got our photos from Lisa (which she delivered faster than expected), it gave us the chance to relive the day, plus see so many other small moments going on between people at the wedding we hadn’t been able to see. Choosing to work with her was one of the best decisions we made -- we will cherish the photos for the rest of our lives! Also, we decided relatively last-minute to schedule an engagement photo shoot with Lisa at SF City Hall, and she was kind enough to accommodate us on pretty short notice. Her experience showed here too -- she knew the best spots to seek out in the building, and the photos are beautiful and personal even though City Hall can get so busy with people. Both my wife and I are not the most comfortable being photographed, but she was patient in walking us through how to stand and showed us our photos to help us understand why she was giving us the instructions she was. She was so dedicated to getting the best possible shots, and that really came through in the photos. As mentioned above, we can't recommend her more highly!

We were open to J's eye when it came to moments and he worked seamlessly on our big day--him or his team never felt intrusive to a special moment. The raw emotion of the wedding day was captured so beautifully-we get to relive such a momentous day over and over through his art. He was incredibly professional, was very easy to work with and was so helpful in planning. J has delivered amazing results: 2500 photos for our wedding, which we received in exactly 3 weeks. We received the first short video within 4 weeks of the wedding as well for his photography and videography package. So grateful that we booked with J Roman and would recommend his over and over again!

Hej, I’m Anders, originally from Denmark, I made the move to the United States in 2019 to marry my wonderful wife, Kristin. Photography has always been a passion of mine, and I've coupled that with my love for adventure. Whether it's traveling the world, scuba diving, hiking, or ultra running, I've always found ways to incorporate photography into these experiences. However, everything changed for me when I shot my first wedding. Being part of such a special day, filled with love and magic, made me realize that this is what I truly want to do.

Awarded Best of Zola
I will start this review off by simply stating that the choice of the photography “vendor” might have been one of the most important choices to me in our wedding planning process and the one that gave me much anxiety initially. I was looking for someone who could capture the feeling of our day, of course get lovely photographs of our friends and family, and also let shine their artistic talents to create photos that could stand alone without the obvious label of a “wedding shot.” The decision of which photographer to pick with the initial brief above seemed daunting...especially in a sea of what seemed to be very standard wedding photographers all at about the same price point or much more for what didn’t seem like better quality. When I stumbled upon Anders, I immediately felt a connection to his artistic style that felt in a different league to what I had been looking at. We had an initial consult with Anders and all of the feelings of anxiety over the photographer (how the pictures might turn out, whether we were going to regret our choice, etc.) washed away completely. We are living in the PNW and were able to do an engagement shoot while we were in Chicago briefly and Anders was very flexible with our scheduling and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. He spent extra time, took us to such interesting spots, and the results were so beautiful. I mentioned in our initial consultation that what was most important to me was enjoying our wedding day and the special time with friends and family which is exactly what we got. Anders did such a great job in making sure we stayed on track with important shots and was able to create so many other personal shots that I just love looking back on! Not only this, but he also ended up creating a wedding video for us that was so special. Not only is Anders a wonderful photographer, but a wonderful person who is so friendly, kind, and truly passionate about his work. We are not the only ones who noticed; We had multiple guests after the wedding comment on how fun Anders was to interact with. I cannot think of an easier decision that we made for our wedding. I cannot recommend Anders enough!

If a picture is worth 1,000 words, then Ray’s photos are worth 10,000. He is hands down, the best photographer I’ve seen. As a bride, it is important to have all those precious moments capture and he went above and beyond that. Not only did he make a lasting impression on myself, but my wedding party and guests were so impressed they also can’t say enough good things about him! Book Ray, and without a doubt in my mind - you will have the perfect photos of a lifetime.

Hi there! My name is Madison and I am a wedding photographer based in the beautiful seaside town of Newport, Rhode Island. Although I call Newport home, I provide my services to couples throughout the greater New England area and am always willing to travel worldwide for my clients' special days. I have always been passionate about capturing life's most special moments through my camera lens, and there's nothing quite like the magic of a wedding day. I consider it an honor and privilege to document the love story of each unique couple I work with.

Awarded Best of Zola
My experience with Maddie as our wedding photographer was truly exceptional! From our very first conversation over the phone, Maddie made me feel incredibly comfortable and at ease. To further cement this sense of comfort, Maddie arranged for an engagement photoshoot with my fiancé, Chris, and me a few months before our September wedding. This thoughtful gesture proved her commitment to creating a fun and enjoyable experience for us, long before our wedding weekend started. Fast-forward to our wedding this past weekend... Maddie was an integral part of our entire celebration, joining us for the full lineup of festivities. From a sailboat tour for our wedding parties to the welcome party the night before our wedding day, she was there to capture all of our most important moments with such grace and skill. In addition to her exceptional photography skills, Maddie's presence throughout our wedding weekend felt like that of a close friend. Finding someone as consistently positive and genuinely kind as Maddie to be a part of our wedding was such a game-changer, especially considering the hectic nature of our wedding! Last but certainly not least, on top of having Maddie with us on the big day, she brought a dedicated team with her to ensure that no picture was missed! The team was just as incredible as Maddie, and they worked seamlessly together, meticulously capturing every moment from multiple angles. Their commitment to perfection made the photography process flawless. We are incredibly grateful to Maddie and her team and could not recommend them enough! We couldn't have asked for a better photographer to document our special day.

Alissa and her Sweet Bliss team were wonderful! At my wedding we used their photography, videography, and planning services. I was able to ask questions any time of day and Alissa was diligent in her communication. She was a real help in organizing the reception set up and working with my caterer. Alissa had helpful suggestions and accommodated all of my requests. My wedding photography captured the moment(s) and the colors were vivid. The video of our ceremony was amazing! I am extremely glad I decided to have the video made. It brought back the entire day. Alissa is creative and artistic. I would highly recommend her and will use her services again when my children get married!!

These photos are pure artistry, I can’t believe it’s me in them. They are nothing less than spectacular and she didn’t miss a beat from the entire day.

LIGHT UP - Wedding Photography

My mission is to create wedding photos that tell the story of how the day unfolded. Portraits that capture the feelings and emotions of the day with lots of natural light, lots of natural smiles, and lots of natural moments. I offer direction when needed, but otherwise, I help things flow so I can photograph the day as it unfolds in front of my camera. My editing style is considered "light and airy" with a photojournalistic approach and a touch of fine-arts portraits for a healthy balance of art and craft. The colors are inspired by film tones with an emphasis on beautiful skin tones and lush minty greens. The highest level of service.

My husband I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer!! The Light Up Wedding Photography team brought our vision to life not only for our wedding, but also our engagement shoot. We discussed our wedding theme, colors and location along with our desire for black and white photos. The lighting and composition were out of this world! I was blown away by the attention to detail, care and professionalism. Also, Andy has the best personality and is such a joy to work with! Wedding planning is obviously chaotic, but he put us at ease from day one. He made sure our special day was immortalized with class and stunning photos. I highly recommend Light Up Wedding Photography; you will not be disappointed!

Hi I’m Abby! been told all my life that I have an artistic flair and a gift for creativity, but that’s not the only reason why I started my career in wedding photography. I’m the biggest romantic and feel things deeply — in my photography there’s no detail in your connection that goes unnoticed. The little winks and smirks that silently set your soul on fire, the quirks that stay hidden to everybody else but you, and the parts of them that somehow make you fall in love with them even more… They’re how I tell stories because I know that in time, those are the things you’ll cherish the most.

Abby made our day unforgettable. She had this ease about her that calmed me throughout the day. Anything I wanted to make sure we included she made it happen - even the smallest detail that I had forgotten about she remembered. She drove me up a mountain for first look photos. That right there is dedication. Not only was she supportive as a professional, it was great to have her there as a friend. I would recommend this amazing photographer to anyone. The quality of her work shows through her photos and her work ethic. She had sneak peak photos emailed to me the literal next day. Abby is an absolute wonder, and I will forever be grateful she was there to capture the most perfect moments of the most beautiful day. Thank you, Abby!

Hi, I’m Jason, a Des Moines wedding photographer who travels around the globe photographing weddings. After documenting over 500 weddings, I can honestly say that no two weddings are the same! I strive for epic compositions with my photojournalistic approach to wedding photography to capture the true essence of who you are as a newly married couple. In addition to my skills as a photographer, I’ve also built my client experience to infuse more fun and less stress into your wedding day.

We hit the jackpot when we hired Jason to capture our wedding day in Las Vegas! From his first response to now having our full gallery, Jason was so supportive of our big day and our vision for it! We appreciated how from the beginning, Jason told us he will be as hands on or off in the planning process, whatever we needed. All questions were welcome and he helped us with our wedding day timeline. We absolutely loved our engagement photos and enjoyed the experience of having them taken. We were even more excited to have him capture our wedding day after that session. In Vegas, the day before our wedding, Jason came along with us to the venue and helped set some decor up. All along the way he showed enthusiasm for us and checked in to see how he could help. On our big day, Jason was present, not just as a photographer, but as a friend. He helped with little things throughout the day, supported our fun ideas (a first look prank and a paper bag dance), and was very flexible! We gained a great friend through this experience and stunning photos! Photos that we are excited to share with our people and get to look back on, reminiscing our big day forever. Hiring Jason to photograph our wedding was the best gamble we made!

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
