We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Lee Media! From the very beginning, they’ve been incredibly quick and responsive with all communication, which made everything feel smooth and stress-free. They were also very accommodating with all of our requests and truly went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. We especially want to highlight our photographer, Robert Quotskuyva. We were a little nervous going into our engagement session, but he immediately made us feel like we were old friends. He helped guide us with posing, made us feel completely comfortable, and even took the time to help fix hair and little details throughout the shoot, which we appreciated so much. We are absolutely in LOVE with our engagement photos. They capture us so naturally, and we’re so excited to share them with everyone. We truly feel like Lee Media offers incredible value for the quality and level of care they provide. Highly, highly recommend!

I’m based in the greater Phoenix area but am always traveling around the state and U.S. for weddings! I’ve been married to my best friend, Cody, for 9 years now. I’ve been a professional photographer for about 7 years now. I’ve always had a passion for photography. Photography is my passion and it’s my full-time job.

Kevyn was absolutely amazing! We were both so nervous going into our engagement session since it was our first professional photoshoot together, but she made the entire experience feel easy and fun. She guided us through poses, helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and took us to all the best spots. All we had to do was tell her the location and she had everything handled from there. When we got our photos back, you would never have guessed how nervous we were at first. She captured us so naturally and beautifully, and the turnaround time was incredibly fast. We fell in love with the photos immediately, and they will be memories we treasure forever. We are so grateful for Kevyn’s talent, guidance, and attention to detail throughout the entire process. We can’t wait to work with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer.

Hi, I'm Candace and I have a thing for weddings! I didn't start as a wedding photographer, I actually started as a BIRTH photographer surprisingly! I was addicted to capturing real and raw moments for families to have and relive over and over. I actually was nervous for weddings, which is why I didn't start doing them. One thing led to another and as people started asking me if I WOULD shoot their wedding, I decided to give it a try. Fast-forward to dozens and dozens of weddings later and I am obsessed!! I am a full fledged wedding photographer and I LOVE capturing every single moment of your day. The addiction is real!!

  • Serves Carefree, AZ

Your wedding photographer should be a perfect mix of a fly-on-the-wall and a director. Not someone who’s going to yell cut during your ceremony or give you exact directions on how to deliver your vows, but someone who will guide you on this super important day and deliver the photos you’ve been dreaming of. Whether it’s through my specific formulas for creating ideal timelines or managing your family for hassle-free group photos, you’ll experience this direction throughout wedding planning (Pre-Production), your wedding day (Principal Photography), and delivery (Post-Production).

Maya Papaya Pictures was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding & engagement session. Her communication was prompt, and they truly listened to our wants and needs, responding quickly to any questions or concerns. The quality of their work exceeded our expectations - it was of the highest caliber. On the day of our wedding, Maya & Courtney helped calm the nerves of the chaotic day and worked seamlessly with our two huge and intrusive families to capture beautiful photos. We could not be happier with the memories they helped create for us. We can not wait to use Maya for any photo necessities we might need!

I specialize in warm, earth-toned, candid photography that tells each couple’s story authentically’m drawn to couples who care deeply about the experience they're creating—thoughtful celebrations filled with meaningful details, genuine connection, and a whole lot of personality.

Awarded Best of Zola
I've had the pleasure of working with Laura on both sides of her camera- first as a wedding planner and most recently for a branding session to mark a milestone moment for my company. I can say with confidence that she is equally amazing on both ends! In front of her camera, she knows exactly when to help guide the posing so you feel comfortable and get those must-have photos, and when to cheer you on or just step back and document the moments as they unfold naturally. Laura is the kind of photographer who will be sure your photos are true to you and your vision, but also makes it feel FUN! As a wedding planner, I could rave about her for days with all the reasons I recommend her to our JJE couples. Her communication, expertise, and personality truly are what create the full experience your wedding day deserves! But above all, Laura's calm presence on wedding day and ability to keep photos right on track is what makes us trust her SO much with our couples. We know that we don't need to worry about you while you're are off taking those gorgeous sunset photos, because you'll be 100% taken care of with Laura :)

Hi, I’m Megan! Your personal hype girl, professional third wheel, and biggest cheerleader on your wedding day!

Adriana Montoya Photo was the absolute best choice we made for our wedding photographers. From the moment we first connected, her communication style was above and beyond - she was always checking in to see if there was anything she could do for us, and even sent us a thoughtful gift long before the big day. On the wedding day itself, Adriana's bubbly personality and attention to detail made even the most stressful parts of the day fun. The quality of her work and the value she provided is also truly above and beyond - the photos she captured are stunning and we're so grateful to have such beautiful memories of our special day.

She responds quickly, is incredibly thoughtful with surprise welcome and closing gifts, gives more photos than any other photographer and within her promised time frame, she was a complete pro and was highly organized at getting in all the photos we requested. My now husband doesn’t like to smile for pictures but she did a great job at getting a mix of his serious face along with some smiling poses. The love we had for each other was brought to life in our photos. Our beautiful day went by so incredibly fast and it was hard to remember every moment. I’m so happy to have all these amazing photos to relive our day over and over again. If you want a honorable and professional businesswoman paired with an AMAZING talent for photography, Brittany is your gal. It’s been five months since our wedding and I still love all my pictures. I wish I could get married all over again just to get some more beautiful photos!

Briana was hands down our favorite vendor from our wedding. From the second we booked her, she has been amazing. She was by far the most communicative, always checking in, helping us stay on track, and even guiding us through our timeline which helped tremendously. We had our wedding on 2/28/26, and even before that, our engagement session was such a great experience. We are super awkward and honestly hate taking pictures, but she made everything feel so natural and easy. It never felt forced, and she somehow managed to capture us perfectly. We already love all of the photos we’ve received so far — they’re seriously incredible. Every single one feels genuine and beautifully done. We can’t wait to get the rest of our wedding gallery. If you’re looking for someone who is talented, organized, and actually makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera, Briana Lee Photography is it.

I photograph with the understanding that one day, these images will become part of a family’s most treasured history. Long after the day has passed, they will hold the light, the emotion, and the quiet beauty that words cannot. My approach is rooted in presence—observing with care, honoring what unfolds naturally, and preserving the fleeting moments that often matter most. I believe photographs should do more than document how things looked; they should return you to how it felt to be there, surrounded by love, meaning, and connection.

I've been photographing weddings for over 10 years now and love it more than ever. What I love about photography and especially wedding photography is how I’m able to connect with myself and others. I believe that your soul knows when it’s onto something good. Brings a new meaning to the term “soulmate” doesn’t it? That’s why I’m so passionate about creating art with you and your loved ones in mind.

Alyssa Ryan Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding day. I have had the privilege of knowing Alyssa for quite a few years, and she is always so kind, professional, and prompt in her communication. Her work is truly breathtaking - she has a gift for capturing such personal moments. Alyssa made the photography process so easy and fun, and she has an incredible ability to make anyone feel at ease in front of the camera. In addition to our wedding day, Alyssa has photographed our engagement, rehearsal, and even some special equestrian moments for us in the past. We will always have Alyssa photograph our future life events, as she is truly an exceptional photographer and a wonderful person.

Your wedding day is filled with once-in-a-lifetime moments: the quiet nerves, the happy tears, the laughter, and the love that brings everyone together. My passion is capturing those memories in a way that feels natural, meaningful, and true to you. If feeling awkward in front of the camera sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and that’s exactly why my approach is centered on helping you feel comfortable, confident, and fully present on your day. My goal is for you to enjoy every moment while I document your love story as it naturally unfolds. I want you to look back at your photos and not only remember how your wedding looked, but how it felt.

I can hardly express in words my appreciation for Irina Adams as our wedding photographer. She took both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. Our engagement photos were taken in Sedona at a cute park that Irina recommended and our wedding took place at the Marley Park Heritage Club in Surprise, AZ. Her photography style is lively, bright, and timeless. Exactly what I was looking for in a photographer. I also loved the up close, detailed shots that captured our reactions to each others vows and the moments that made it all special. Even the photos at night are clear and crisp. The photos can speak for themselves, but there are many other attributes to look for in a wedding photographer. Irina helped me pick out a dress for my engagement photos that didn't clash with the Sedona scenery. She is direct in her communication, and got our family and wedding party through photos quickly to maximize time for my now-husband and me to spend with our guests. You will not regret choosing Irina as your wedding photographer, my only regret is not having her stay longer for the reception.

Valerie is absolutely amazing. Obviously her work is so good, but she made the experience so much more! She was so incredibly easy to work with, so timely, couldn’t have been nicer, and overall an amazing photographer. I would choose her a million times over! My dad actually thought she was one of my friends from high school or college, because of how personable she was to all of our friends and family. She listened to everything we wanted and definitely delivered. We had a call a few weeks ago to discuss our timeline and she was so patient and helped us understand how the day would go / what we actually wanted. There were times when I was stressed and I can’t even tell you how calm she was and made us feel. My husband hates having his picture taking and didn’t expect to like the experience very much. He could not stop talking about how comfortable Valerie and her second shooter made him feel. We chose to do super 8 as well and I am so glad we did. I love that she has film option ad ons, as it definitely fit the vibe we were going for. Overall- Valerie is SO great to work with. She is so talented. I would absolutely recommend her- you won’t regret it!!!

i’d call my style documentary meets editorial. like candids got all dressed up. it’s raw meets refined, honest with a little edge. i live for the kind of storytelling that feels real but still stuns. if you’re into photos that are artful, a little unexpected, and full of feeling. let’s make something cool together.

Brookklyn did our engagement shoot and our wedding day and night. She made this camera shy bride feel so comfortable and beautiful on my wedding day and got the most perfect photos of my handsome husband. She worked so well with the many personalities in our bridal parties and got lovely shot even though we (my husband and I) didn't do a the best job sticking to our timeline. I am not the best poser for a photo and Brookklyn got amazing candid images that I will treasure for life. I would highly recommend her for your wedding or any event! She is professional, kind, fun, and a great vibe to add to your wedding day.

The day wouldn't have been able to have been as magical without Kelly. Even through rain and hail, they were able to make the day go by without a single problem. The storytelling they captured through their lens created memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. Their professionalism and ability to seamlessly adapt to the changing weather conditions ensured that every special moment was documented beautifully. We are so grateful to have had AZ Wedding Photographer as our photographer, as their work truly helped make our wedding day perfect.
