We loved working with Noelle and Daniela at LaElleKae. Even though we were planning a wedding reception in a short time frame (4 months), Noelle and Daniela were calm and cool the whole time while also making sure we got everything we wanted. Additionally, they were incredibly respectful of our budget and very easy to talk to. It's clear that they are experienced in working with all types of brides (and grooms) with all types of visions! Daniela especially went above and beyond for us, working diligently to get the perfect stage for our reception when everything seemed unavailable - she didn't give up.

If I were to choose one word that describes MC Visuals, it’d be “breathtaking”. Honestly, the way I feel cannot even be explained in words. They offer both photography and videography. The quality of the photos and video is just astounding that it was way better than I had expected. I was looking for a certain vibe and they fit the bill. Some things to note: 1. They respond in a timely manner. Well-organized. 2. Very sweet couple who will make you feel very special during your special day. 3. Outgoing personalities that’ll help you feel more comfortable being in front of the camera. 4. Again, the QUALITY of the photos and videos. I can’t stress this enough. They go above and beyond. And capture your day in a way that it feels like a dream. I am immensely satisfied with their work. If I were given the chance to do it all over again, I’d choose MC Visuals every time.

Hi, I’m Amandha! A Brazilian-born wedding and elopement photographer based in Denver, CO. My love for storytelling, travel, and memory-making brought me to the U.S. six years ago, and after living coast to coast and down south, I found my heart home in the Colorado mountains with my husband and our pup.

Katie is more than just an incredible photographer, friend throughout the entire process. Back in February, I was scrambling to plan a last minute proposal and had spent months looking for someone I could trust. Katie came through in every possible way. Not only did she help me pull off the proposal flawlessly, but she also helped plan the entire experience, from the perfect location to places we could go afterward to celebrate. What stood out the most was how comfortable she made both me and my fiancée feel, especially since I’m not usually very photogenic. She brought such a calm, warm presence to the shoot, and her flexibility and thoughtful suggestions made everything stress free. Katie wasn’t just our photographer, she became a special part of our story. We’re now planning our wedding and genuinely hope to have Katie there not just behind the camera, but as a guest and friend. Highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who truly goes above and beyond.

As a documentary-style photographer, I truly believe that the essence of life is captured in the unscripted, candid moments that often go unnoticed-- Each click of my camera is more than just a snapshot; it’s an opportunity to freeze time and preserve the love, joy, and uniqueness of your moments for generations to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
My newly minted husband and I were over the moon from the initial contact with Anna Elisabeth. She is an excellent listener with a superb sense of capturing our wishes in her photographs. We had an unusual experience in that we wanted to capture both of our faith traditions on different days and different geographical areas in the same state. Anna Elisabeth professionally and respectfully photographically savored these traditions beautifully with her photographic gift. She was present and her presence was professionally and discretely demonstrated. Her keen sense of recording precious moments was one of storybooks.. from having the pictures of the bride's mother place, her once veil (when the mother was married 57 years ago) to having the groom's mother putting a family heirloom bracelet on to capturing the special wink given by the groom when he first saw the bride walking down the aisle with her father. All these moments were special at the time and Anna Elisabeth captured them beautifully and discretely. Communication is very important to us, and Anna Elisabeth was professional, prompt and demonstrated honest integrity throughout the entire process. We are providing her a 5 star rating but she is off the charts and anyone who uses her will understand why she should be rated a 10!

Born and raised in the vibrant city of Chicago, I come from a big, lively, and wonderfully loud Middle Eastern family, my heart has always been set on bringing people together and celebrating love in all its forms. What better way to do that than planning fabulous + unforgettable weddings, birthdays, showers, + more! My friends often turn to me for organizing their events, our travel adventures, & booking our excursions, which sparked the idea: why not make this my career? With over 5 years of professional event planning experience under my belt, I’ve absolutely fallen in love with crafting every little detail to ensure your day is perfect!

From the very beginning, Jen brought a sense of calm and confidence to our wedding planning process. While she was technically our day-of coordinator, she jumped in to support us a full month before the wedding — helping with logistics, vendor coordination, and keeping everything organized and on track. On the big day, she was so attentive, perceptive, and incredibly grounded. She understood the nuances of our family dynamics without needing much direction and handled every moment with grace. I was completely comfortable handing off all vendor communication to her, which allowed me to truly enjoy the day. She listened carefully, wrote things down, and followed through — often within minutes. Her assistants were kind, proactive, and professional, which only added to the sense of trust and ease. Everything felt seamless and intentional. Her communication was clear and efficient, and I genuinely appreciated her adaptability, warmth, and thoughtful attention to all the details — even the ones I didn’t know I needed help with. She didn’t just help us execute a timeline — she helped bring our vision to life. We couldn't imagine our day without her.

Hi there, I’m McKenna ✦ I’m an Earth-conscious, wedding and event florist. From intimate gatherings to luxurious celebrations, I work with all couples and individuals to bring their floral dreams to life. I recently relocated from Colorado to NE Iowa (Driftless Region) and I will be flowering for 2025-future seasons there.

The Brown Sugar Experience is where love stories meet celebration in the most soulful way. I’m Nae, a nationwide wedding and event planner who believes your big day should feel like you—intentional, beautiful, and rooted in joy. From intimate “I do’s” to big family-filled receptions, I help couples plan weddings that reflect who they are and what they love, without all the stress. Planning should feel exciting, not overwhelming—so I bring structure, style, and heart to every step of the process.

We were overwhelmed with all the planning, but Nae stepped in and gave us PEACE. She thought of things we didn’t even know we needed. She advocated for us, organized everything down to the hour, and brought so much love to the process. 3 months later and our guests still talk about how smooth and intentional everything felt. Hire her—you won’t regret it.

At Where We Wandered, we use our photography to enable you to revisit life's most precious moments, see the faces of those no longer with us, and relive those moments that define your life with the people who made it possible.

Where We Wandered was a pleasure to work with for our photography. From our first conversation, their communication style was open, easy, and comfortable, making us feel at ease throughout the entire process. We would absolutely use Where We Wandered again and highly recommend them to any couple looking for talented photographers for any occasions.
