The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted. Alec truly went above and beyond, and we had such a great time working with him. I'm obsessed with the pictures and would give him an 11/10 rating!

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
Isaac came recommended from a friend who did their engagement and wedding photos with him. We were also fortunate to have done our proposal, engagement and wedding photos with Isaac! He is so professional and comfortable to be around. My husband and I dont usually like to take photos, because we are self conscious, but Isaac took care of us. I am so grateful we came across LoveKnot and will always highly recommend them for anyone's special occasion.

This whole experience was better than I dreamed it would be. I was super nervous in front of cameras but they made me feel so comfortable like I was just being myself. The pictures don’t look stiff at all, they are full of energy and joy. When I saw the first preview I actually screamed lol, I couldn’t belive that was ME looking so beautiful. The video was insane, like it could be on tv or Netflix or something. My husband and I sat on the couch holding hands and crying watching it together. They somehow even made my uncle’s goofy dance moves look amazing. My friends are all asking who did our photos because they can’t stop looking at them. Every little detail like the flowers, the candles, even the way the wind blew my veil, it’s all there. This is honestly priceless, something I’ll hold forever.

His communication was beyond excellent and his ability to make you feel understood and comfortable during the photography process made our day go extremely well. We were also impressed with his ability to provide us with high quality photos quickly after our wedding day. It shows how diligent Artur is and his desire to provide the best quality service possible. I appreciated working with him and would recommend him to the highest regards.

We were so impressed by 505 media and their quick responses and quality of photo/video they took! From the initial phases of planning, they were quick to respond and eager to help in the planning process of making sure timelines were manageable. They were able to capture all of the milestones during the day and were even willing to hop on our party bus when we wanted footage of the wedding party driving around! We were so impressed by how quick the photos were delivered! We received a text while on our honeymoon the week after our wedding that our edited photos were done and one week later we received all our pictures!

Being behind the camera isn’t just about clicking a button and editing a photo and delivering it. It’s about making sure you capture each and every detail even if the couple doesn’t realize it. I’ve become passionate in what I do because I love the smiles that it puts on people’s faces and the happy tears that stream down their face when I deliver the most beautiful album that they get to hold on to for the rest of their lives. True love is real. Capturing my couples is like bringing a romance novel to life.

Marylyn, owner of Momentous Memories, has been my go-to girl for YEARS!! She never disappoints!! She knows just how to capture the most amazing moments and love between two people. Her photography is stunning and she creates such a fun environment to be in! My husband does not like having his picture taken, but she knew exactly how to get him to open up and pose for pictures. She was great at communicating throughout the pre-wedding process and ensuring that she knew how our day was going to go. Even though on our day it poured down rain, Marylyn worked her magic and created an album of the most breathtaking photos. I will always highly recommend her to anyone I know!

Their attitude and outgoing personalities were so fun to have on our day, they made us feel so comfortable and at ease with the amount of pictures we were taking! All my family and guests were raving about how much fun they were and how at ease they made everyone feel, and just how much they could tell they loved being a part of our day! As for the owners, Ashley & Luke, they very clearly love what they do and respect their customers. We had a bit of a snaffu early in our wedding planning process and they took care of it in such a professional and apologetic manner that my husband and I felt comfortable that we still would have them capture our wedding day.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

I had the most incredible experience with Kasiya for my wedding pictures! Not only did she have a great eye for capturing those special moments, but she brought such a fun and easygoing vibe to the shoot. What I loved most was her attentiveness to our preferences. It truly felt like she cared about making our wedding memories unforgettable. I can't recommend her enough if you're looking for a photographer who not only delivers amazing shots but also makes the whole experience enjoyable. You won't be disappointed:)
