As the father of the bride, I felt a great deal of responsibility to find the right photographer that would delivery an excellent record of our daughter's wedding, mesh with her vision and create a sense of calm in the process. I was so pleased with Lavel and her team. From the first meeting with the bride and groom, she fit perfectly. She was so calming and uplifting and supportive of their vision. She was organized and the day of the event, she fell into the background, avoiding any stress or distraction, but somehow captured every important moment and guest. The photos and albums were absolutely stunning and artistic and beautiful. From her professionalism to her process to the product to the price, I recommend enthusiastically without reservation.

Vogue Party vibes to intimate adventure elopements and everything in between! Any of my clients will tell you I say "We're not photographers we are storytellers" and that is my main goal when capturing your moments. I have a strong lean toward editorial-style shooting and maintaining gorgeous skin tones. I've been shooting weddings and elopements around the country for the last 8 years and have fallen in love with serving my clients not just on the big day but also leading up to it. I shoot with natural light primarily but don't shy away from some good flash when the vibes call for it! Cheers, David

“My pictures of you, there was nothing in the world, that I ever wanted more.” The Cure- Pictures of You David and his team are marvelous and without needing to say so very talented. His work speaks for itself. We feel so fortunate that he was available for our small grassroots wedding, which was straight from our hearts and all about love, family, and friends. David and Bobby captured all of that and so much more. We wanted our photos to narrate all small and big details, and that is exactly what our amazing photos do. David just makes you and your entire wedding party feel at ease. When he says he doesn’t do packages he means it. He is there to support and guide you not only on the day of but with the whole process. He helped us build our timeline which was such a huge relief, from there he ensured that the hustle and bustle of the day had built-in moments for just the two of us. Looking at our photos is reliving one of the best days of our lives. David is now like family and is already booked for my daughter’s upcoming day. Thank you, David- we were so honored to have had you as our photographer!

Lauren did such an a amazing job coordinating our intimate micro- wedding. We would recommend her to anyone looking to plan a wedding in the Santa Fe / Abq area. She went above and beyond - from calming us down and finding solutions when our cater cancelled 6 weeks out to finding us plates the day of the wedding for our 5-course dinner when our new caterer showed up without plates. She was always calm, professional and made sure me and my husband had everything we needed. Thank you so much Lauren!!

Kerbi Helene Artistry 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Albuquerque, NM
  • Beauty professional
  • Team of 2
  • Starts at $200

Hi there Bride to Be! My name is Kerbi Kendrick and I am the owner of Kerbi Helene Artistry. I am a Luxury Bridal Hair & Makeup artist here in the enchanting state of New Mexico. I provide fresh, unique, elevated hair and makeup styles using luxury products and skilled techniques. My work is best described as effortless, elegance that is both timeless & chic. I love to enhance your natural beauty.

I'm an absolute MAXIMIZER when it comes to making decisions, and Kerbi was an absolute dream — truly one of the BEST vendors we had for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Kerbi's warm, genuine, and bubbly personality put me at ease. She has such a calming, affirming presence — the kind you want around you on one of the most emotionally charged mornings of your life. She was SO flexible when I made things a little complicated, and worked with me on making it happen anyway. Kerbi's work is truly exceptional - she gave me a beautiful, natural glow that made me feel like the best version of myself, and her makeup lasted ALL night. She moved quickly but spared no detail, tweaking until everything was absolutely perfect. Despite some last-minute changes on my part (including a late decision to book her for my own bridal makeup because I saw how talented she was after she finished the first bridesmaid!), Kerbi was beyond gracious and flexible. She didn’t hesitate, didn’t guilt me — just showed up with support, comforting, positivity, and affirmation. To be candid, I had a negative experience that morning with a different beauty vendor I had hired (who charged far more than Kerbi) and it really stole the joy from those early hours. It cast a major dark cloud over the fun of getting ready that I really felt robbed of UNTIL Kerbi stepped in! Her kindness, go-with-the-flow attitude, and positivity completely turned my mood around. Part of what that that taught me is that expensive doesn't always mean better. Kerbi's rates were very reasonable, but don’t let that fool you — her work is ELITE. Kerbi is the real deal, and the proof is in the pudding with her work. Don't be fooled by anywhere that charges an arm and a leg - it does NOT mean they are the best in the business!!! You might be wondering why I took the time to write such a long and detailed review, but it's seriously because Kerbi genuinely SAVED MY DAY with her kindness, positivity, and skill... and I will recommend her to every bride I know. She's one of the THE BEST VENDORS WE HAD, and I'm so grateful for the way she helped me feel beautiful and confident on my wedding day. I would recommend her a million times over to any bride!!!

Albuquerque, NM

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,950

I photograph weddings in Albuquerque and Santa Fe with a calm, documentary approach focused on real interactions, honest emotion, and the natural flow of the day. Timeless, joyful photographs are the foundation of my work, but just as important is how the experience feels. By taking time to understand what matters to you, I work in a way that feels comfortable and unforced—so you can stay present and walk away with photographs that feel true now and meaningful years from now.

Albuquerque Wedding Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From start to finish, their communication was clear, prompt, and encouraging. Guillermo, the lead photographer, planned our entire day out meticulously, coordinating with all the vendors days in advance and keeping us on schedule without ever feeling pushy. His experience and expertise showed in the natural, fun, and creative photos he captured - nothing felt posed or fake, and he found amazing angles that highlighted the beauty of our special day. Guillermo and his team were so kind and personable, making all of our guests feel comfortable. We are absolutely thrilled with the final photos and couldn't recommend Albuquerque Wedding Photography more highly!

I am a destination wedding & elopement photographer + planner based in New Mexico. I am originally from the small college town of Lexington, Kentucky, but before long my family moved to Toronto, Canada. Fast forward a handful of years, we moved to Nashville where I finished up elementary school and attended high school. I graduated from UTK in the spring of May 2020 with a BS in marketing and a collateral in entrepreneurship. After graduation I moved down to Florida to be with my partner who is stationed in the area and this past year we got moved to NM! I am an avid traveler & learner!

Audrey is the best. She went above and beyond for my wedding which seemed so natural that she must do it for all. We had 3 phone calls since we lived far away. Ahead of the wedding she put together detailed timelines for myself and all those involved. We made edits together and we explored different package options. I had a large wedding where my Husband and I were getting ready at different locations, a Catholic Church Ceremony and a different location for reception. Audrey managed with ease. She has the calmest demeanor and the best art came from the day. I received “Sneak Peaks” of almost 80 photos within 2 days which was a shock to me. Upon opening them, the photographs were so beautiful we couldn’t even believe these were from our day. I HIGHLY recommend Audrey for your wedding. Big or Small, Formal or Informal. She is the girl. BTW her second shooter, Lauren quite literally saved our wedding ceremony when I forgot the rings. Lauren tracked down the limo driver and delivered the rings discreetly to the alter!

Hello, my name is Allen. Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about the past, present, and future of my passion for music. My first DJ event was in 2010 when a couple of my friends wanted to have a New Year’s Eve party. The opportunity of using a friend’s professional DJ equipment came about. The rest is history – I haven’t stopped since! I am constantly learning more and more each day and having fun while doing it. I’m like a kid on Christmas morning when I purchase a new piece of DJ equipment or get butterflies when someone books an event. I love playing music! Especially playing music people like.

We had a great experience working with Good Times DJ Service for our wedding. He was very communicative throughout the planning process, responding promptly to our questions over text, email, and phone calls. He took the time to understand our musical tastes and style, and it showed in his song selections at our reception. The dance floor was packed all night! He was professional, arrived on time, and kept everything organized. During the reception, he paid close attention to the crowd vibe and adjusted the music when needed to keep the party going strong. We would highly recommend Good Times DJ Service to other couples planning their weddings - he helped make our special day a huge success!

The Lunar Lake is your fine arts & cinematic destination wedding cinematography team in the Caribbean, based in Jamaica, repping Montego Bay specifically (I just had to slip that in there). To partially describe us, I'd say we are just a team that loves the idea of travelling, building relationships, exploring new places, and the nuances of different cultures (one of us is quite the foodie, so you know how that goes!), by telling authentic stories along with our creative take and perspective.

Our wedding at Wharf House in Jamaica was honestly everything we could have hoped for. It felt so special being back in the area where I grew up and getting to share that experience with my hubby and our family. The Lunar Lake team blended right in with everyone and somehow captured every little moment while keeping us relaxed and making us feel truly appreciated as if they’d been our longtime friends (which they now are, lol). The wait for the final film took a bit of time, but it was so worth it. Watching it felt like we were right back there, reliving the day all over again. We just can’t thank them enough

Hi there! I’m Sara, owner of Lucero Luxury Florals — and a fellow 2026 bride ✨ So trust me, I get it. The costs add up fast, the to-do list never ends, and somehow that perfect Pinterest vision always feels just out of reach. I know how it feels to balance your dream florals with what’s in season, what’s in budget, and what’s even possible… only for everything to be tossed away at the end of the night. As someone who loves both this planet and our New Mexico community, I knew there had to be a better way.

My wedding was in two weeks, but big florals were way out of our budget. I found these arches and for the price, decided to go for it. Luckily Sara was available and I’m so glad! The floral arch completely transformed our ceremony space and we got sooo many photos from it! The setup was seamless, and our guests couldn’t stop taking photos of it. I loved that I could choose colors to match our theme. Highly recommend!

Michael was very fast at communicating with us via phone and email, and he was extremely friendly throughout the entire process. The space at Spirit Stage was very large and could accommodate a decent number of guests, making it a very unique setting for our wedding or any other event. They helped us set up the space and provided all the tables and chairs, which made the day feel so stress-free. I have nothing but appreciation for the owners and the care they showed us - I would highly recommend Spirit Stage to anyone looking for an event venue, and I would definitely work with them again in the future.

HEY! My name is Jade! I am a follower of Jesus Christ and He gave me this passion for photography. I’ve grown up and lived in New Mexico my whole life. I am stoked to be surrounded by the desert, the Rio Grande river, and various mountain ranges. I literally get to drive through and roam around these beautiful God-given landscapes to inspire the work I create. I believe that it is important that YOU choose to work with me because of who I am. What makes me different from the handful of other photographers you are considering? I care. From the moment you contact me, I am praying for you. What I love about being a photographer is

Long story short- Jade cares about YOU and this will be completely evident in her work. You won’t regret hiring her to capture one of the sweetest moments of your life. Your photos will last as long as your marriage-forever! Hire a professional to ensure every sweet moment is remembered for years to come. HIRE JADE. Because Jade cares about each of her couples you will see her professionalism, support, and amazing work on the day of your wedding. She was key to keeping our wedding on schedule, capturing our sweet candid moments, handling a huge crowd and crazy schedule (that never goes as planned), AND getting us our flawless prints very quickly after. This is someone who works hard and is in the business to use her skills for others. I truly felt she went above what we asked because she knows how precious these wedding photos are. We initially chose Jade because we loved her work. Her photos aren’t over edited and she has a range of creative shots. She provides photos of everything, from sweet bride and groom shots that capture the couples personalities to the shots of the little details that make your day special. I cannot recommend Jade enough! She was FANTASTIC (and her husband too!! Yes- hire both! the dream team)
