Alissa with Sweet Bliss Media was very personable and easy to connect with. On my wedding day, she made me feel like it was her life's mission to make me feel and look beautiful in my photographs. Amidst all the craziness of your wedding day, it felt nice to have someone by your side to bring out the beauty. Who is not just there as a photographer for hire, but a forever friend capturing the special moments. Alissa also did things that she was not asked or contracted to, but just out of the kindness of her heart. She brought me bottled water to ensure that I stayed hydrated and even stayed later than we had originally laid out in the contract to make sure that my send-off was captured! She is a sweetheart and even though the photography was the biggest bill of the wedding budget, it was worth every penny, even my husband agrees. The finished product is absolutely stunning and we can’t wait to use her again for our family photos!! We highly recommend Alissa to all brides looking for a wedding photographer.

We had the absolute privilege of having Novel Cinema capture our special day. I've got to be honest, we were initially a bit nervous about being in front of the camera, but the team at Novel put us at ease right from the get-go. They have a way of making you feel like you're just hanging out with friends who happen to have cameras! The magic they worked with those cameras though - it's nothing short of amazing! They captured every laugh, every tear, every loving look - and then some. It's like they had a sixth sense for those little moments that make a wedding day so special. Watching our wedding video for the first time was like reliving the day all over again. To all the soon-to-be-wed couples out there, do yourselves a favor and hire Novel.

No trends, no awkward poses. Just love, laughter and emotion.  While photographs are one of the few things you walk away from your wedding with, they aren’t the sole purpose of your event. You are there to get married, see your people, and celebrate this moment in your life. The photographs come far after that. This day is all about your love for each other. However you naturally stand together, embrace each other, whether you visit people on different sides of the room or hold hands all day, whatever story you tell on your wedding day is going to be preserved as such. Weddings are just love stories wrapped up into one day.

Everything was very smooth and laid back the whole day. Casey made everyone feel so comfortable and met our style perfectly. I am so grateful for Casey and all her work!

Hiring Mike as our wedding DJ was one of the best decisions we made!! From our first meeting, Mike was professional and friendly, providing us with a lot of information and answering all of our questions. After we booked with him, he set up an easy-to-use app for us to select our songs, write notes about the reception, and communicate any special instructions. It helped us keep track of what to prepare and how to plan the timeline of our day since we didn't have a wedding planner. Mike also came to an in person meeting with our venue so he could be prepared for the wedding day, and he was completely set up and ready when we arrived for cocktail hour and dinner. The wedding day could not have gone better: not only was Mike on point with all the music choices we made, he created an excellent vibe for our guests. We had a lot of families with young adults and older parents, and Mike played music that appealed to both crowds. His emcee skills are excellent, and he was flexible with a few adjustments to the timeline throughout the night. Mike’s son JC worked our photobooth, and he was just as professional and friendly. His upbeat attitude and excitement for the day was well appreciated, and all of our guests were happy with their photobooth experiences. If you want a smooth, efficient wedding day with top tier vibes, Mike is the guy to hire!!

Hey, there! I am a "Type A" wedding planner based out of Greenville, SC. I fell in love with the Wedding Industry when my sister got married during the HEIGHT of COVID (August 2020) and we were put in the position of having to make about a million changes to accommodate health and safety needs. Since then, I've helped so many couples plan their perfect day. I love "The Office," vanilla iced coffee, reading mystery books, Jesus, and tuxedo cats. I enjoy an adrenaline rush bouldering, doing aerial silks, or hot power vinyasa.

Tori was fantastic! She truly enjoys what she does for couples and it shows! You can also tell that she's had lots of experience. She was so calm, which helped me stay calm, too. She helped us with several details for our wedding. Everything from making a timeline to finding a few vendors we still needed. She was super easy to get on the phone/text. I liked her planning google drive that allowed us to work together and stay on the same page. Her monthly meetings were very useful and were never on a "time crunch." Sometimes we talked for 30 mins and sometimes it was 2 hours. She never made me feel like I was just another client. She really took her time with us. She came early and stayed late without charging us extra on our wedding day (wish I could say the same for the photographer). She went above and beyond what her responsibilities included--helping my family with setup/tear down/helping my grandmother move around. She really made sure I didn't have to worry about anything on my wedding day. She made sure what WE wanted was what was prioritized, even when some family tried to step in. She handled herself with grace and ran "interference" beautifully. I couldn't have asked for a better coordinator!!

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

My name's Allison and I am a photographer for the madly in love, imperfect couples that want their joy-filled wedding days to be captured on camera. Working to pursue my degree in my Masters of Occupational Therapy, I spend all my free time behind a camera shooting the love and beauty of those I meet. A lover of Jesus, chocolate freak, and an Enneagram 2, I am SO excited you're here and interested in a photographer!

Working with Allison is a delight! As a photographer, looking for a second photographer who is easy to work with can be difficult. Allison is so sweet and fun to be around. She is very detail oriented, and willing to help out wherever she can. I highly recommend Captured by Allison!

Kristie was so easy to work with. Her eye for detail and lighting were spectacular. Our photos are so beautiful! We asked for a few nice pictures but received an unbelievable storybook of our day. Kristie captured all of our special moments! We were so blessed to have her with us that day!

I love capturing the unseen, messy, and perfectly imperfect photos that you never even knew you wanted. I live for those emotive, raw, storytelling moments. I take a documentary approach to my work with a little bit of editorial; My style is candid and my focus is authentic connection through my images. If I were to describe my style; VIBRANT | RICH | BOLD+COLORFUL.

We had such a wonderful experience working with Jenny on our wedding day! From start to finish, she was professional, kind, and truly a calming presence during all the excitement. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and seamlessly captured candid moments without ever feeling intrusive. Although we’re still waiting for the full gallery (which we know will be worth the wait!), the sneak peek we received was absolutely stunning. The way Jenny captured the emotion, light, and joy of the day was incredible. We can already tell the full gallery is going to be something really special. We’re so grateful to have had Jenny be a part of our wedding and can’t recommend her enough. If you want someone who will make you feel relaxed, capture your day beautifully, and go above and beyond, she’s the one!

Hi, I'm Laurel! I love to capture authentic, candid moments between you and your loved ones, as well as variations on classic poses. I like to think of myself as a storyteller for sweethearts in love. I specialize in natural light wedding photography, with an emphasis on fine art and candid images. On wedding days, my second shooter is my sweet husband, Jakub– that’s right, we are a husband and wife team! I love shooting all the emotion-filled moments and delicate details on your wedding day, and I couldn’t imagine doing it without Jakub by my side. We when aren't photographing, we are usually spending time with our Holland Lop, Beau!

Laurel has been the best party of our wedding process! From our engagement photos to our wedding day we loved having her there every moment. Our pictures were natural, fun, easy and absolutely stunning. She communicates often, stays in touch and created an amazing timeline to help us through the day! Highly, highly recommend!
