“Jennifer Christi Photo & Video was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. Their communication was timely, easy, transparent, and they were always flexible from start to finish. The quality of their work was truly professional, efficient, intentional and excellent. This team made our day so much fun and felt like we were hanging out with friends. They listened to exactly what we wanted, were great at communicating, and were also very detailed which we really appreciated so there was nothing overlooked. They even went above and beyond when some family members didn't show on time for pictures, taking them a little bit later which we didn't expect but very much appreciated. The results were everything we hoped for and then some! We would definitely recommend Jennifer Christi Photo & Video to any couple planning their wedding.”

Here at Vick Photography, we want to give you the ultimate wedding experience from start to finish. We live for the happy moments that keep you curious and we are here to listen, laugh, and create intentional photographs for you. I have been photographing weddings for over 15 years and can't wait to bring you into our Vick Photography family.

“This is long because we can’t figure out how to describe how amazing Vick is- If you’re searching for a photographer who is a true artist, will make you laugh, help you remember to take a breath and savor the little moments, aid in corralling your family (including the furry kind of family members) and friends, and go above and beyond in every way to help the wedding process proceed seamlessly seriously stop searching. Andrew Vick is the real deal. He made everyone feel at ease in front of the camera, and did so much for our wedding aside from taking beautiful pictures. He helped everyone coordinate, fixed dresses, captured all the moments we wanted, and especially the ones we didn’t know we would look back at and absolutely treasure. It has taken us a long time to try and write a review that will accurately describe his incredible work, and what a wonderful person he is. This review still doesn’t do him justice. Words can’t describe how amazing our experience with him was.”

Awarded Best of Zola
“We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!”

I am the heart and soul behind Dakota Layne Photo. Based in western Wisconsin, my love for photography started as a seven-year-old girl as the flower girl in a family wedding and has now become an extension of who I am. I approach my clients from a place of empathy - understanding who they are, what is important to them, and how I can bring their story to life in a significant and meaningful way.

Awarded Best of Zola
“From the moment I inquired with Dakota, she was prompt. We instantly jumped on a call and we literally talked for a hour! I instantly knew she was going to be our photographer! Throughout the planning process, she consistently reached out to check in. Her thoughtful and uplifting voice messages were such a light midst the stresses of wedding planning. I would get so excited when I saw her name pop up on my phone, her bubbly personality and genuine care in her messages meant everything to us!! Our engagement photo day was a scorcher--95 degrees and pure sun!! But Dakota made the absolute best of it, even as we took breaks to cool down. Despite the sweat and crazy heat, our photos turned our magazine worthy--seriously stunning!! In the weeks leading up to the wedding she checked in almost daily, which was so reassuring. Her online website and questionnaire were very thorough and incredibly helpful. At one point, I even called her to vent about a difficult wedding situation (that had nothing to do with her), and she listened and reassured me through it all! She is truly a wedding industry professional!! On our wedding day, her presence was incredibly pleasant and everything flowed perfect. We fell a bit behind due to hair and makeup, and she continued to reassure me that we would be just fine. Her photography style is absolutely stunning, with great attention to detail that captured every important moment for us. We received our sneak peeks just a day or two after the wedding which was one of my favorite memories ever!!-- getting to reminisce on the stunning photos with my now husband on our first day of our honeymoon. It meant the world to us! The full gallery was delivered within the timeframe discussed in our contract as promised, I even had a few questions about different angles and additional photos and she delivered on all of my requests. Her gallery website was very easy to use and share. Overall we had a 1000/10 experience with having Dakota as our wedding photographer. Not only is she an incredibly talented photographer, but she is also so personable and was one of the best decisions and investments we have ever made! When it is your special day, you want to be surrounded by the absolute best, and that is Dakota!!”

Like many people, I spent 10 years within corporate America and although I am thankful for my experience, it wasn't feeding my soul. I can be honest and say that I learned so much- my customer service skills, high-level organizational & strategy skills, and my overall work ethic comes directly from my experience within a regular ol' 9-5. However, I've been able to pair what I learned the last 10 years with my passion for photography, and have built this business to provide a stellar experience, the same one I would expect if I were getting married. Below I'll dive into what sets Loui apart, and I hope to hear about your upcoming day!

“Loui Photography LLC / Loui Co. was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From our first interaction, Meg was incredibly timely, accountable, and friendly. Her work was simply spectacular - captured every special detail. Meg was more supportive to us on our wedding day than our day-of coordinator, ensuring our timeline stayed on track and that no important moment was missed. Despite Meg's growing popularity this year, we were able to book her at a lower price point but still receive the highest quality service. We cannot recommend Loui Photography enough to any couples looking for an exceptional photography experience on their wedding day.”

I’m Nikki. A Florida-based wedding photographer documenting the wild, sacred, beautifully imperfect parts of getting married. My approach is documentary, nostalgic, and a little bit undone. I’m there for the moments you didn’t plan for: your dad trying not to cry, your friends losing their minds on the dance floor, the quiet five minutes alone together, the weird little in-between moments you won’t realize mattered until years later.

“Nikki was my college senior picture photographer. I wanted to do 3 very different photo shoots, as well as incorporate my college friends and my dog. Nikki was able to execute my vision perfectly!!! She knew the perfect locations and captured the vibe I was going for in each session perfectly. I am very detailed oriented and she made sure to capture all the small personal details I wanted included as well. These are my favorite pictures I’ve ever had taken. She was so encouraging and made me feel extremely comfortable behind the camera. Whether you are wanting something more traditional or something completely unique, Nikki will execute it beautifully!!”

I never saw myself having a wedding. Never imagined the venue, the flowers, or the centerpieces. Never had any ideas about what my hair would look like or the dress I would wear. One night I was sitting with my mom and she said “I see you getting married on a beach somewhere, with just a few friends. Then afterwards we have a bonfire and music, and we laugh all night.” It’s like she was living in my brain- that felt so right to me- and I had never seen a wedding like that. I didn’t know that kind of thing was allowed? From then on that’s the only way I’ve pictured my wedding to be one day. That’s what I want to help my couples find.

“the best thing you can do as a newly wed is make sure you have the right man and more importantly the right photographer lol jk but seriously :). ‘happy’ doesn’t begin to describe the intense emotions you have on your wedding day and ‘happy’ is an understatement compared to what i felt when i got the photos back from lily. she’s an artist & an artist needs space and time to work. we just let her do her thang and my wedding photos literally came out magazine worthy. the one thing I tell everyone who has seen our photos is it was captured the way i remember it. her photos are influenced by all the emotion and aura throughout your day. she captured my Caribbean dream better than anyone else could. Forever grateful.”

Hello Hello! I'm Eleanor, a Wedding Photographer Based in Minneapolis. I specialize in documentary-style, artistic, and timeless wedding and portrait photography. I bring a calm energy to wedding days that my clients appreciate. My work is centered around capturing moments in an honest way.

“Let me save you ALL the time by telling you to BOOK SEVERINA STUDIOS NOW! I spent countless hours searching for wedding photographers on wedding apps, IG, etc. and Elle's portfolio is unmatched. She was everything we hoped for and more! She kept everyone at ease during photos and captured so many moments and details we'll cherish forever. She worked so well with our coordinator to keep our timeline on track and kept us laughing all along the way. Our venue is known to be difficult for photographers, as it's very dim and intended to be candlelit. It was no challenge for Elle - her work was stunning! Seriously - end your stressful search for this critically important role and book Severina Studios!”

The purpose of documenting your wedding is day isn't just to relive it for the rest of your life but also to pass your legacy down for generations. Of course, your legacy isn't just those photographs of you smiling at the camera. But it's all the people you surround yourself with on your biggest day. All those little moments that build not only your wedding day but your life. Trained with a photojournalist's eye, I work to get all the candid moments on a wedding day. While also small chunks of time throughout your day to get those beautifully posed photos.

“Rachel Newville Photography was the best at capturing the love on our wedding day. From the sweet little moments shared, the big laughs, and encapsulating those timeless moments. She did absolutely phenomenal work! Our bridal party loved working with her, and said it was like she had know us our whole lives. Rachel had great ideas and just told is to trust her and I’m SO glad we did because looking back at those pictures makes me feel that investing in her work was the best way to relive that best day.”
