Love Knot Photography

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

Alexis is seriously the best photographer ever! She did both our engagement and wedding photos, and somehow captured every bit of love and joy from those days perfectly. She worked completely on her own and absolutely crushed it. The most incredible part — she was pregnant and due any day, and still showed up with the biggest smile, so much energy, and gave 110%. You can feel how much she loves what she does in every single photo. I’m beyond thankful we found her and plan to use her for all of our future photo needs.

After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date. From the very first contact, he was incredibly responsive (super important to us), friendly and professional. His work looked great so we were excited - then we found out he was featured in Vogue! We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful. Thank you Caz for giving us such beautiful memories so we can relive the best day of our lives.

Hi! My name is Bailey and I am the owner of Baileaves Photography. I am a travel and destination wedding photographer based in Portland, Oregon. I travel all over the world to create timeless cinematic images of couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
My fiancé and I are getting married in May 2026 and are both pretty camera shy. We knew we wanted to get professional engagement and wedding photos done, but were nervous they would feel inauthentic. When we found Bailey’s page we were so excited about how she captured genuine joy from her couples in some of our favorite natural wonders in Oregon, which put us at ease going into our first conversation with her. Right out of the gate Bailey was incredible helping us feel comfortable with her, giving us resources to help guide our location outfit choices, and making us feel confident that we weren’t going to regret this decision. On the day of our engagement shoot, Bailey showed up at sunrise with us on the Oregon coast and ran around the beach for over 3 hours with us because the lighting kept shifting in such incredible ways through the clouds. Not only that, but she went above and beyond wrangling our dogs while we got some couple shots followed by some with the pups in some truly special family shots we will certainly be hanging up in the house. We had the best time with Bailey and the engagement photos she delivered were beyond anything we could have imagined. The way she captures the little smiles and moments between loved ones is unmatched, and her attention to lighting nuance and details of the natural area you’re in make her photos that much more special. We ended up using some of her photos for our invites and website, but are most excited to frame some for the house to remember forever. We can’t wait to have her as our wedding photographer and couldn’t recommend her enough for anyone looking!

Hiba removed any stress I had about photos as a nervous bride who did not feel confident or comfortable being in front of a camera all day. She spent time getting to know us and made sure we were able to capture amazing, memorable photos, without losing sight of the actual point of the day and party we were there to enjoy. Multiple times she seamlessly adapted our shot plan on-the-fly to let us have more time to be with guests or have a moment to ourselves when she sensed we needed it. ALSO she was a baby whisperer with our flower girl and turned frowns into smiles and I'm still not sure how she did that. Highly recommend Hiba!

Moe was our photographer for our wedding ceremony and reception and she is an absolute gem! She had such a long day with us at two locations, and constantly went above and beyond! Her energy was so fun it elevated our happiness. We had multiple guests complimenting her photography and personality throughout the night. Moe is professional, meeting with us early on to get a feel for our priorities. She is detail-oriented and had lists of shots we wanted and shots she wanted to make happen for us. We really appreciated her help with natural posing and her use and knowledge of multiple techniques including drone footage and film. There is not one sweet moment that was missed. We tend to be camera shy and feel awkward, but she made us so comfortable it felt like hanging out with a friend. She also pulled off having a large sample of our intimate ceremony pictures to be broadcasted just hours later for our larger reception. She more than accommodated all of our requests and we trust her vision completely. We cannot praise Moe enough.

Photographing weddings is my dream job.

When I'm not working I'm traveling the world by plane or tour bus, and hanging out at home with my husband and dogs.

Our photos from Brandi are absolutely stunning, we're so grateful for her artistic eye and sense of style. She was easy and pleasant to work with, and all of our guests appreciated her presence as well. Most importantly, she was a huge help when we showed up at the venue with a bus full of our friends and family that we had booked for photos nine months in advance and were told we wouldn't be allowed in because of weather - Brandi jumped in with some suggestions for other locations and helped us quickly relocate to still get some really great photos.

I love love, and I love more hearing about different love stories. I have been a photographer for over 4 years, and the one thing that I have grown to master is watching the moments happen as they are and never missing a shot. You're probably seeing all the trends around film photography, and I adore shooting in film. I include film (a lot) with every package.

Awarded Best of Zola
We feel so lucky to have found Suhana! We originally weren’t planning on hiring a photographer for our Central Park elopement, but booking her turned out to be one of the best decisions we made. From the start, Suhana was incredibly warm, communicative, and thoughtful. She helped us think through timing and logistics, offered helpful suggestions, and even surprised us by showing up early to capture getting-ready photos at our hotel. They are fun, joyful and something we’ll always treasure. Suhana has a true gift for capturing moments as they naturally unfold. If you're looking for beautifully candid, non-rehearsed photos that still feel elevated and artful, she’s your girl. Her presence made the day feel even more special...she was fun, grounding, and genuinely excited for us. She also worked with us to make both film and digital photos fit within our very humble budget, which we really appreciated. Her turn around time with unheard of (less a week from our elopement!!) so we got to enjoy the photos right away. We’re obsessed with our photos - they feel like us in the most magical way. If you are looking for an elopement photographer, do not look further, you will not regret working with Suhana. Check out her work and you’ll see what I mean. Suhana is simply the best.

Eli Holmes Photo + Film 
Rating: 1.8 (5 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves Death Valley, CA

Film brought art back to photography — having control over the film stock, using particular cameras for different reasons, doing double exposures with film blindly, souping film and customizing the development process to the wedding, and so much more. And through film, I embrace the imperfections of weddings — following along with your flow of the day and natural interactions of your friends and family. Capturing your wedding story as it happens is always the priority and focus.

We were going to go with an off island photographer when we came across Eli and their work. Their knowledge of the island, how the wind blows differently on different sides of our venue, how the light hits perfectly on this side of the venue and we can still get an ocean view — that they care about the power lines and know how to avoid cars in the back of ceremony images. The list just went on and on and on. Working with Eli was like working with a walking encyclopedia of Block Island. And when you're getting married on the island, it's such an asset. Eli helped walk us through other on island vendors, best spots for our engagement sessions, different hotels that might suite certain guests better than others, an amazing casual rehearsal dinner/welcome party idea that was flawless, and I just couldn't be happier. When we got the images though, I didn't know what to say. Eli had captured so much of our story, we felt the same jitters getting ready to walk down the aisle looking through images of moments we didn't. get to experience on our wedding day (we were a little busy, getting married, and you just can't witness everything). Eli was so great with our friends and family, able to choral a few of my drunk groomsmen, while simultaneously making my antsy family members just super at ease and happy. I couldn't be happier in working with Eli and can't wait to see them in future years when we visit.

I’m going to be honest, we are in an industry that puts us in front of cameras. We know a lot of brilliant photographers.

I’m Amy — the heart behind With Love by AQ Photography. I’ve been photographing weddings since 2012, and my passion lies in ensuring your images reflect not only how everything looked during your day, but also the energy, vibrancy, and emotion of how it all felt. I’m drawn to the little gestures, the big emotions, and the genuine in-betweens that tell the true story of your special day. From cathedral ceremonies, to intimate backyard weddings, to elopements in iconic destinations, I love getting to document each couple’s unique story and bring it to life.

We were so impressed with AQ Photography and her work at our family gathering. From the very first interaction, Amy was professional, personable, and reliable - always responding promptly to our questions and keeping us on schedule throughout the day. The quality of her work is simply exceptional, with photos that feel authentic, inviting, and truly timeless. Amy has a magical way of capturing the energy and emotion of the moment, even with camera-shy guests, and her prompting helped everyone look natural and at ease. We were blown away by the warm, vibrant color quality of the photos, which perfectly reflected the magic of our special day. AQ Photography was an absolute joy to work with, and we couldn't be happier with the beautiful memories they've given us to cherish forever.
