Eivan's made our wedding day wonderful! Alexander Schmidt was our photographer, and our videographer was Noah. We got our pictures back sooner than expected, and they suited the exact style we had hoped for. Communication was great, photos were easy to access, and we were allowed free download for so many pictures! One family portrait had one person not looking, otherwise people were smiling and looking in everything. Many people commented on their professionalism as well as their kindness at the wedding. Thanks, Eivan's!

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.

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.

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. Whether it's local events or adventures across the globe, I’m all about creating stunning, authentic images for my incredible clients. Let’s make magic together!

I wish I could give 6 stars! Kirsten was incredible! She did such an amazing job, we couldn’t have been happier. She is so great to work with, and she ensured that we had great photos and lots of them. Our wedding included my toddler nephew and our dog, and she did such a great job getting their attention and giving us wonderful photos. We really got to know her, and she is very friendly, open and honest. She genuinely loves weddings and gets so excited for a great shot. She gave us feedback in the moment, which I really appreciated so that I could make small adjustments if needed. She was also great with working with our fixed set of time after the ceremony to ensure we got our priority photos done. She really knows what she’s doing and her work is great. I would highly recommend her for your wedding!

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.

This group.. is just.. AWESOME! I wanted candid, organically aesthetic shots and that's exactly what they delivered. Working with Jenn on the backend was great from start to finish - she was kind, thoughtful, and professional in every interaction. Steve's dynamic was so chill and flexible that it was like we knew him for years, but also stays on task since he knows he has a job to get done - and he does it well. Hannah was incredibly sweet, helpful, and just as exacting in knowing what shots she wanted to get as Steve. It was a memorable experience working with them and would do so again in a heart beat!

*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.

Our experience with George Street was excellent! Their service was professional, timely, and more affordable than some other vendors we were considering. We loved the safety net included with going with a company like George Street. One of my biggest nightmares was worrying about one of our photographers/videographer missing our wedding day. The coordinators provided us peace of mind stating that if an emergency should happen, they would have another staff member come and fill in. The coordinators respond quickly to emails, which was great being so busy working full time while wedding planning. We got our photos back about a month later which was much faster than I was expecting. Our video took another month or so and was so sweetly edited. We got contact information from our photo/video team the week before the wedding just in case we needed to contact them individually. They did a great job helping us capture memories that we will cherish forever

These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Sean gave us an incredible experience with stunning results. He was punctual, professional, and gave very clear instructions for his shoots. He also was very excited to be a part of the process and involved in our special day. When it came time for the ceremony and reception, he was sure to stay out of the spotlight and took incredible pictures without us having to remember that he was there. 10/10 experience and 10/10 quality on the final photo results. We would highly recommend him for any event you may have coming up!

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Promani for our April 2025 wedding for both photo and video and I was so, so happy with how everything came out. Both Taylor (photo) and James (video) were so great to work with. And it was so fun being able to see the photo and action shots that they directed for us, come to life in the final product. I was originally a bit apprehensive, given I wasn’t going to be able to see the direct work from my day-of photographer and videographer, but Benjamin the owner assured me that style and quality were trained to Promani’s standards. I really wish I could have told the anxious bride (me) that everything would be okay and turn out beautifully. Post-wedding, Benjamin was super responsive in working with me to make some final tweaks to the video and albums. I’m in the Boston-area and Promani has recently started expanding their work here. I would highly recommend - beautiful work, and super fair pricing for their photo/video bundle, especially for the quality of their work.
