Hi, I'm Samuel Hui, a wedding photographer driven by a passion for creating unforgettable memories through my lens. What sets my work apart is my commitment to blending experimental creativity with a deep respect for the natural flow of each wedding day. I believe in capturing genuine moments that reflect the authentic emotions and unique personalities of my couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We got some really great photos from Samuel! We really love his true-to-reality editing and that he tries to capture every detail. Be sure to tell him ahead of time how you want your day to go. He leans hard toward the Instagram-y, fabricated style and it was difficult to redirect to a more candid style in the moment.

This is wedding photography designed to feel effortless, meaningful, and enduring—heirlooms you’ll return to, long after the last toast has been made.

There are many things that can go wrong in your wedding, but I can wholeheartedly say that choosing Elizabeth Kane Photography was one thing that was absolutely the BEST CHOICE we made for our Disney wedding! From beginning to end, Elizabeth was not only working as our photographer but was also making sure we developed a friendship to further build trust that we were in amazing hands. She traveled all the way from California to Orlando for our wedding and even went above and beyond her "behind the lens" duty to help with other areas of our wedding day! Honestly, long story short, words cannot describe how grateful we were (still are) that we chose Elizabeth for our wedding day. It was seriously the best day ever and she captured everything so perfectly; now, we'll have it all beautifully captured forever.

My journey began in Kiev, Ukraine where I lived till I moved to America when I was 14. One of the only things I brought from my life in Kiev was my analog, Zenit 35mm. I live in the Mojave Desert with my husband, a songwriter and my dog, a gigantic, white fur-ball named Angel. I love film, especially French New Wave and music, especially 60's rock & roll. Aside from photography, I act, play organ on my husband's records and am very interested in directing.. but one step at a time.Photographing weddings has been a blessing for someone like me who loves love, beauty, art & storytelling.

Great great job! My wife is in love with the photos, big success. Thank you Sasha for doing such a fantastic job. Would recommend to anyone

I’m Edgar, an HTX-raised native with Salvadorian roots. I am the owner, creative director, and lead photographer at Anchor Studios Photography. I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based out of Pittsburgh, PA! However, the stories I capture don't start and end there. I love to travel to capture stories all around the world.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had our wedding in California and Edgar flew out and helped make our day so memorable! We didn't know him before and didn't end up doing an engagement shoot (so I was a little nervous) but he absolutely nailed it. His photos are stunning (I've gotten a TON of compliments on them), he is extremely communicative, and he had a bunch of photos ready to go by the end of the wedding. Both me and my husband aren't great at posing for photos and he knew exactly how to place us without it feeling faked. Super easy to work with and just a really nice guy. I'd highly recommend him to anyone!

With 17+ years of experience, ConneryFilm specializes in high-end wedding photography & cinematography. Based in LA & available worldwide, we deliver stunning visuals with fast turnaround & top quality.

I don’t even know where to begin—ConneryFilm exceeded every expectation we had. From the first email to the final delivery of our wedding photos, everything was handled with so much care, professionalism, and heart. Connery has an incredible gift for turning real-life moments into cinematic memories. What really impressed us was how he paid attention to the little things—a subtle look, a soft smile, a quick laugh—things we didn’t even realize he had caught until we saw the final photos. And let me just say, the editing was flawless. The tones, the lighting, the composition... every image looked like it belonged in a magazine. Beyond the artistry, Connery was just amazing to work with—friendly, responsive, and calm under pressure. He made us feel comfortable and at ease and somehow made the whole experience feel effortless. If you’re lucky enough to book him, do it. You’re not just hiring a photographer—you’re investing in memories that will bring tears to your eyes for years to come. ConneryFilm is truly one of a kind.

Hello lovely! Let me introduce myself—I’m Sarah. Welcome to my little creative space—I hope you love it here & make yourself at home. My goal as your photographer is to put you at ease and therefore be able to capture your moments authentically and beautifully. As a film and digital photographer ("hybrid" if you will!), I take a big step back to capture your memories with intention, love, and honesty - my promise to you, is to treat your day as if it were my own. Film is my favorite medium to capture wedding days on, as I feel it brings back a level of authenticity, imperfection, and refined elegance that is irreplaceable.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so happy we found Sarah!! Picking a photographer was the most important decision for me and I was relieved when I came across Fox and Fig. Even though we lived in different states, Sarah immediately made us feel comfortable and excited and yet calm. I knew we were in good hands. Sarah and her second shooter took us to a second location to shoot pictures during our wedding that we are OBSESSED with and made us feel like rockstars. I think our timeline and plans changed multiple times on our wedding day, but nothing could phase Sarah and her team. I would choose Fox and Fig over and over again!!

I cannot express how amazing Angela was. She has not only a super warm personality. But also an amazing work ethic. I got the package for two photographers and they were both phenomenal. While I was getting ready(we are running about 30 minutes late) she was out taking photos of the venue, the lay flat photos, and the other details pictures. She even held onto our rings for me because the bridal suite was a wreck and I didn’t wanna lose them. All in all my experience with her was a 12/10 experience. She was one of the people who made my wedding less stressful!

I have always loved story-telling. I loved writing stories as a kid (I even tried to get a book published at age 12) and I love writing my own D&D campaigns now. Through storytelling, I see the paths laid ahead for our heroes, and beautiful adventures that need to be documented. Through storytelling, I started to see the pictures. And from these pictures, I began to photograph. I am crazy passionate about your day. I want to help you capture those moments. I want you to have the most amazing time, and the happiest memories. I want you to have photos so good that you can’t wait to show it off to the people you know, and even those you don’t.

We did our maternity and holiday family picture with Cassy, and our family love it! I have a golden retriever and a 3-year old toddler so you can imagine how chaotic it can be to take a good family picture with two goofy balls. Cassy is amazing! She has this special magic to make the photo session a fun game for them and capture the precious moments for the family (the interaction, the laugh and etc.). She is patient with all our requests (e.g. different combination of family members) and she is good at guiding us for poses that looks natural but aesthetic. The whole session was like a fun activity and the whole family enjoyed it. We got our picture in about a week ( it's just like a blink considering it is holiday season!) and everyone loves it - the photo gallery is super easy to access and share with family members. Perfect if you want to do a digital holiday cards :) I'd highly recommend Cassy to capture the precious moments for every special occasion.

As a devoted wedding and portrait photographer, my primary focus is on authentically capturing the genuine emotions that make up your unique story. My goal is to ensure that your special day is not just visually documented, but deeply felt.

Rafael is hands down one of the best photographers I have worked with. I used his services previously for my mothers wedding and when the day came for mine I knew he was the photographer for us. He is detail oriented, patient, creative and kind. When my husband and I decided to elope we only gave ourselves a week and a half to plan. Rafael was very accommodating to our last minute plans and made us feel as if we had planned our special day a year in advance. Rafael took the time to learn the site and plan beautiful photos accordingly. Rafael gave us great directions on how to pose and what angels would make us stand out. My husband and I are not huge on taking photos and when we received the photos we were amazed ! The photos looked natural and captured who we are as a couple. I look at these photos and feel confident and beautiful! I appreciate all the work Rafael put in to our special day ! We are so excited to share these photos with our loved ones for generations to come.

Hi! I'm Christin, a destination wedding photographer based in Chattanooga, TN. Specializing in timeless and artful imagery, my expertise goes beyond just taking photos; it's about crafting a visual story that reflects the joy, love, and unique spirit of your celebration.

Working with Christin at Christin Sofka Photography was one of the absolute highlights of our wedding journey. From our very first inquiry to the days following our wedding, Christin has been nothing short of phenomenal—responsive, professional, fun, and such a warm presence throughout. We initially found her because of her stunning photography style, but it was her incredible personality that sealed the deal. From our first call, she genuinely wanted to get to know us—our story, our vibe, our vision—and it showed in everything she did. Before we even officially hired her, Christin was helping us find a venue that aligned with our dream, connecting us with other amazing vendors, and offering support in ways far beyond the role of a photographer. She was in it with us every step of the way. I’m usually awkward in front of a camera, but somehow Christin made it feel effortless and fun. She created an environment where we could just be ourselves—and that joy, love, and personality came through in every photo. Our pictures shine with who we are. Every idea we had, she embraced and brought to life in ways that exceeded our expectations. She was just as excited as we were the entire time—and honestly, I can’t imagine our day without her. Christin is not just a photographer—she’s a true artist, a cheerleader, and a calming, creative force you’ll be so lucky to have by your side. If you’re considering hiring her: do it.

I'm Jess, a hybrid digital + film photographer, as seen published in Over the Moon. I'm based in Northern California, and travel within the US and internationally to shoot weddings. My work blends photography mediums— using film for its soul and digital for its sophistication.

Our original wedding was May 2, in Arizona. Due to COVID19, we had to postpone. We decided last weekend to still get married here in San Francisco, and I frantically reached out to photographers on the Knot. I knew immediately when messaging with Jess that she had an awesome, 'let's do this' vibe! She was down to roll with the punches and ambiguity of how the day would play out - it played out perfectly, and in large part due to having Jess there to document. She was so easy to work with, a great presence to take our photos/document the moment, and really make us feel comfortable. She even sent me a sneak peek of a few photos today, the day after, that are absolutely incredible. I cannot recommend Jess enough- any bride and groom are lucky to work with her!

We began our business in Scottsdale, in 2009 and in that time we have worked with hundreds of amazing couples. We had a poor experience with our own wedding photography and it was devastating - it was then that we knew that we needed to enhance the options available to couples like you! Our passion for our work goes beyond a love for photography and an eye for the details because the most precious thing we could ask for is to be part of two peoples special day. When you are involved in someone’s wedding you get to know them, their families, why they love one another, and that bond is important to us every single time.

Lovelee was seriously the best group of photographers. They were all so kind, fun, knowledgeable and made our day amazing. Travis The owner was so helpful in the planning process and really nailed everything that we wanted, down to the last minute of our day. We could not be more thankful to have had them by our side!
