Mark James Foto 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Carmel, IN
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,999

My approach to photography is relaxed and unobtrusive with uncompromising attention to detail. Over the years, I’ve learned that the most important thing is helping people feel comfortable in front of the camera, and once that happens, everything else usually falls into place. As your wedding photographer, my ultimate goal is to capture the authentic emotion of your wedding, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Mark is a true professional who truly cares about his clients. From the second we started the process, he was more attentive, professional, timely, and reliable than majority of people I’ve worked with at any job in my entire life. He was incredibly responsive and always quick to answer our questions or provide updates. His attention to detail, timeliness, and relentless work ethic are the biggest reason he is, and will continue to be, successful.

Awarded Best of Zola
Booking Vallosio Photo & Film for our wedding was one of the best choices we made! We did both an engagement shoot and our wedding with Ashley and I’m so glad we did. Ashley is super fun and easy to work with. She always responded quickly and checked in as we got closer to the wedding. We ended up changing our wedding plans along the way (going from a large venue to micro backyard wedding) and we’re so glad Ashley was flexible and could still be our photographer. She has lots of ideas for posing and getting great action shots. She brings so much enthusiasm and warmth, and definitely enhanced our special day. The photos were edited thoughtfully and she really captured genuine smiles and beautiful moments. Overall, we would recommend Vallosio Photo & Film to anyone, especially people looking to capture genuine happy expressions and cool nature settings.

Hi, I’m Kirsten, the creative heart behind Kirsten Wray Photography! Since 2008, KWP has been capturing life’s most amazing moments, right here in Indianapolis and beyond. After earning my Bachelor of Fine Arts from Ball State University, I followed my passion for photography to the vibrant city of Indy, where I’ve been telling stories through my lens ever since.

Despite having a huge family that was challenging to wrangle, Kirsten was professional, prompt, and thorough in getting all the group shots we wanted. The finished photos are of excellent quality and editing, capturing all the special moments of our day in a way that exceeds our expectations.

Knowing firsthand how special this moment is, and how nervous you may feel, my mission is to make you comfortable and be true to yourself.  I love candid shots that show emotions and at times are editorial. I use a mix of color and black and white in your galleries and my style leans toward warm deep tones.

On the day of our wedding, Kendal captured every special moment with a vibrant, lively style that truly brought our day to life in the most beautiful way.

*Please send inquiries through my email or website. Zola makes us vendors pay to be able to respond to you! Which makes it next to impossible for us vendors to provide you with great customer service.* I have never turned down a potato. French fries are my number 1, with mashed a close second. You probably thought I was going to say something about photography. Eh, I can live with that level of disappointment. The Houston Astros are a permanent part of my personality. I do everything I can to travel as much as possible. I believe in friends and family and friends that are like family.

Katy is truly amazing. She photographed our wedding in 2014 and the pictures turned out phenomenal. She also arranged to shoot at Victory Field for our engagement session which was such an awesome experience. Almost 8 years later, she is still our go-to photographer. Not once have we felt we were being “posed” for a photo. She has a way of capturing those raw, authentic moments without being invasive and she has always made us feel comfortable. She has such an amazing energy and you can feel the passion she has for her career. Katy is truly amazing and I’m so glad she has been the one to capture some of the most memorable moments for my family.

Lacie was the absolute kindest, most sincere and down-to-earth photographer I've ever met! She was thorough with all of her questions, and made sure that we were all on the same understanding of how her process worked. During our engagement photos, she made us feel comfortable, and we could be our goofy selves, which made the photos feel so much more real, rather than posed. She is a natural and would make anyone feel beautiful/handsome! Our wedding photos still make me tear up! They are so beautiful, and she and her sister did the most amazing job! I can't believe how amazing she was with giving us time, and making sure that we got all the photos we had wanted and then some. We were so incredibly lucky to have her as our photographer and will be using her again in the future 3
