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.

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.

Maiyasa did a fantastic job with our wedding and engagement photos. I couldn’t recommend her enough and would love to work with her for all future photos. She is an organized, communicative, creative, caring, and an extremely outgoing professional who makes you feel at ease and makes taking photos fun! She went above and beyond by meeting with me before the big day and basically being our planner by creating our wedding timeline. She also checked out our space and talked our venue into taking photos in an exclusive location that was perfect for our wedding day theme. She gave us preview pics the day after and edited hundreds of photos within only a few weeks. Not only is she an extremely talented photographer, she is also the best hype woman. We felt completely comfortable and confident with her behind the lens.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Carmel, IN

We are Indy wedding photographers and capture beautiful weddings world-wide. We are Van Elk & Co owners, Jenn & Steven Van Elk. We're so glad we get to work with so many amazing couples and other creatives to create beauty, uniqueness, and quality. Our goal is to hand over beautiful images that you will cherish for years to come. Our images communicate the visual story of your wedding day. Our couples have their own unique personalities which we let shine through our images. Jenn is our editing mastermind. Steven along with two of our other talent photographers make up the rest of our team.

Van Elk & Co was wonderful to work with! Jenn was amazing with communication and helped us make the perfect photo timeline that fit all our needs (which was quite difficult may I add, seeing as how we didn’t have a first look) :) Hannah was our lead photographer and wow am I grateful for her. She got to know us so well and seemed to know exactly what we were looking for. We had a blast shooting our engagement photos, as well as enjoyed her positive vibes all throughout our wedding day. She has a wonderful personality and kind heart that always kept us excited for the photos. Even in my most stressful moments, I would just look at Hannah and she always had a smile on her face which was so comforting. She and Steven captured the most beautiful photos I could have imagined. Steven was so thoughtful, organized, and thorough with our photo list and made sure everything was accomplished. Our gallery was posted so fast and had so many more photos than I thought which made us so happy to re-live that special day. Everything from smiles, tears, laughter, and even the smallest to the biggest details were caught in the most beautiful photographs. They were so versatile in their photography giving us dark and moody (our favorite) but also many different styles for a gorgeous compilation. I highly recommend this team to everyone and couldn't imagine anyone better to capture our favorite moments.

*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.

My husband and I loved our experience with Original Weddings Photography. We got 2 photographers for a very competitive price and not only did they check all of the boxes off our shot list, but they came in with creative ideas and captured moments that we want to remember forever. We had several issues with scheduling and the timing of when our pre-wedding call was, but Sarah was so understanding and worked with us so that we felt confident in the details given to our photographers. From the moment the photographers arrived at the wedding to the moment they left, they were energetic and encouraging as a part of the celebration. Even when our wedding party had issues in getting to the right location, the photographers made the most of the time and were able to get all of the pictures taken that we wanted. The turnaround time for getting photos back was also surprisingly quick (within a month). My husband and I couldn't be more pleased with our results!
