The Indigo and Ivory team was amazing for our wedding! They made the photos fun for the group, even in the pouring rain! We were so happy with our photos, we really felt they could have been in a wedding magazine thanks to them! When looking for a photographer, we wanted a photography group that was very artistic when taking and editing photos and I really feel that Indigo and Ivory couldn’t have done better. I’ve had multiple people ask who took ours photos since we have received them. Eric has an amazing eye, knew how to read the venue to get the best shots, and added an artistic and cohesive final edit to the photos. There are so many photography groups out there but we really felt that they stood out from the rest!!

My cousin was recently married in Midlothian and she chose Stephanie to photograph her big day. With our very large family being from Massachusetts, I knew my cousin would have to pick someone fantastic, and she absolutely did! Stephanie was so wonderful to our whole family while keeping everyone on track with timing - we can get distracted! She was such a joy to have throughout the day. She made sure to take photos of everything my cousin requested and then some! I’m sure there’s plenty of candies of the officiant breaking it down on the dance floor!

People inspire me, YOU inspire me. I’d love to capture your story. I've grown to know this about myself when it comes to photography: my favorite style is a blend of documentary & journalism... the kind that takes you back and makes you feel a part of the moment when photo was actually captured. The type that TELLS A STORY, YOUR story. The kind that captures personality, messiness, and REAL expression. I'm obsessed with being able to do all of this through a lens and a camera. Beauty is in everyone, in everything, and everywhere.

About me? Well. I’m a wacky mixture of California valley girl and Virginia country girl. My friends think I’m goofy. I love to create things. Cooking is my passion. I’m a perfectionist when it comes to all things photography. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I am deathly afraid of spiders, but I love horror movies. I sometimes think less is better, unless of course it involves jewelry. My philosophy is the more it sparkles, the better. Impatient is an understatement. Music is a necessity. Red is my favorite color this week. Sleeping is overrated.Crossword puzzles rock my world. My faith and my family guide me in all I do.

I cannot say enough positive things about Holly and Amber. Before you even choose to book, Holly takes the time to talk through your vision of the day and boy does she listen! During sessions she is personable and gives great directions. The quality of her work is amazing and I was thrilled with every single engagement shot she took. Holly was always responsive and so willing to talk through details of my wedding day, making sure everything went smoothly. On the day of our wedding Holly and Amber came to party, even in the 95 degree heat. They were friendly and efficient, helping us execute our vision to a T. Within 24 hours we had a preview of our wedding portraits and we were blown away. They are both so talented and I will definitely be working with Xpression again.

Hi I'm Christian! I am a wife, and mother of four who loves any adventure with a passport involved. I am a huge travel junky who loves exploring new places, food, and culture. I fell in love with photography while traveling the world as a child. Years later, I tell the unqiue love stories of stylish, wanderlust couples, who are madly in love. I absolutely love photographing weddings and the relationships I build with the couples I serve. On wedding days you can catch me with two cameras on each hip making sure that every detail is captured.

I had the wonderful opportunity of working with Christian Nwuso Photography as her makeup artist for a client project. As a photographer, Christian proved her ability to be an asset to any client or project that she has worked on. Christian is diligent and extremely committed to her work. Her professionalism and organizational skills became apparent when we worked together due to an extremely tight schedule for the day. I witnessed how she was able to smooth out the “kinks” when scheduling delays occurred which allowed the day to run in a more efficient manner. Christian delivered proactive solutions in a highly stressful situation, which resulted in a positive response and work environment. Christian has demonstrated reliability, trustworthiness and has an excellent work ethic and passion for photography. I am constantly impressed with her dedication to her craft as well as her clients. I have witnessed her go above and beyond for them. In addition to these great qualities, Christian has displayed great enthusiasm and initiative; she has excellent people’s skills and has a very friendly and outgoing personality. I am sure that she will be a highly talented asset to any prospective client. Christian has an abundance of positive qualities and I respect her greatly. I felt honored to be asked to provide this recommendation and hope that the information that I provided helps to understand what an outstanding professional Christian Nwuso really is.

Working with Bethany from the very beginning was an absolutely incredible experience. Wedding planning can be stressful, but she took out 100% of the stress when it came to photography. Bethany is so energetic, organized, and kind. Words cannot describe how impressed I was by her attention to detail, her decisive and quick thinking as she arranged setups for poses and came up with ideas for shots in a matter of seconds. My entire bridal party was even amazed by her eye for detail and skillful work as she captured portraits and moments from the day. I felt like I was able to sit back and relax, knowing she had everything under control. She was by far my favorite professional I worked with while planning my wedding. I truly cannot recommend Bethany or her work highly enough.

We decided to hire Jen as our wedding photographer after talking with her on the phone (she’s SO nice!) and seeing that she had reasonable prices. We were so happy with our decision!! She was super friendly and easy to talk to. Neither my husband nor I had ever done a photoshoot, and she made us feel comfortable in front of the camera.

She is very flexible and I felt like she was willing to do whatever it took to make our photos special for us. I was able to tell her exactly what I wanted, and she delivered all that and more! She knows what she’s doing, and her photos turn out beautifully. I asked for “fresh, bright, and candid”. We just wanted the photos to accurately reflect the essence of the entire day, and they absolutely did. She was flexible and willing to do what we asked of her, but also used her professional opinion and guided us when necessary. I had some poses that I wanted to try and she was always on board, and then her ideas were always amazing! Also, we got our pictures back SO FAST!! Lastly, she was amazingly flexible given the circumstances of having a “COVID wedding”. We would recommend her to anyone!

Growing up I was always the one behind the camera! It was just natural for me to make it into a business. I started with families, then moved to maternity and newborns and now working with weddings. Being able to capture a couples special day is such an honor and one I don't take lightly. I love producing wedding galleries that couples can look at and relive their big day for years to come!

We had a wonderful experience with Sammy. She is responsive, professional, and talented. Sammy met with us to do a walk through of our wedding venue prior to the Big Day to get a feel for what we were looking for and to offer some insight. Sammy has years of experience that she is willing to share not only in her beautiful photography work but also in the wedding industry. We wouldn't have had our wedding day captured in any other way. We look forward to working with Sammy on capturing more of life's moments.

While I would have loved to begin my photography education and vocation in the glamorous studios of a household-name magazine like Vogue, my story started out discordantly. Like many of my peers and students, my artistic career started as a fantasy while I was plotting my great escape from the corporate world. As I felt uninspired and overwhelmed in my insurance-sector 9 to 5, I resolved I needed something more… something that would empower me to develop meaningful relationships with my future clients and serve them from my heart.

We looked at a lot of wedding photography and saw a lot of photos that didn't wow us. The Inmans' style immediately appealed to us, and our interactions with Ashley confirmed that it was a great fit. The Inmans were very responsive throughout, and we never had to wait long for an answer to a question. We were worried about awkward interactions with a photographer, but the Inmans were great at making us feel comfortable posing for photos or being photographed candidly. Planning was very smooth, they helped us get an early outline of a wedding day schedule and were flexible with any changes we wanted to make. The photos perfectly capture the joy of the day. They look natural and airy, and we will treasure them for the rest of our lives.

Wanting to make sure I documented every little thing he did so I could remember years after was important to me. That turned into what is Holly Johnston Photography today. My passion is to document all of the moments through out your day so you can remember them years after, when you look back at your photos. I want you to be transported back to that day and remember all of the emotions and love.

Awarded Best of Zola
Holly was absolutely fantastic. She was so attentive to everything we needed. When we did our engagement photo shoot, she even brought a blanket and let us use it because it was cold outside. She was so friendly and helpful- we felt like we had known her our entire lives even though we had just met. Holly perfectly captured every important moment of our wedding day. Her photos were clear and well-edited. She effectively got all of our family together for photos after the ceremony and got those photos done quickly. Then, she took us outside later during golden hour and captured some phenomenal photos with perfect lighting. Holly is absolutely amazing to work with and you will not regret choosing her to capture your big day!!

Let's be real. Weddings are wonderful and powerful and amazing days, but they're also big balls of stress. The best advice I ever received was from a friend who said, "find the photographer who can capture the amazing intimate moments, but also the person who you'd want to be a fly on the wall for them." After all, you spend about as much time with your wedding photographer as you do with your new spouse. Bethany was perfect for us. She captured engagement photos so stunning, so authentic, that I wish we could get a new set every year for our family. She captured perfect (occasionally hilarious) moments at the wedding that I would have completely missed otherwise - the way a friend helped you relax by pressing down on your shoulders as you got ready, the way your cousins looked at each other during a wedding toast, the way the cabin looked, it was perfect. And she created an amazing, dramatic photo that took full advantage of the rainy weekend. She's also just fun to be with; despite the stress around us, she was ready with a little joke that helped put us at ease. I think she's one of the only photographers who really got "me" in photos - not the person I try to be, or the awkward person who is trying to smile in the photos, but the person I am. I couldn't recommend her more.

Prior to our wedding, she made time to visit the venue and make sure she understood where photography was permitted. On the day of our wedding, Annemarie arrived early with her assistant. Even though the venue was behind schedule with set-up and I was somewhat stressed, Annemarie was calm and reassuring that everything would go fine.

We had multiple Facetime conversations with her and from the beginning, we knew she would be great to work with. She was one of those people we just clicked with and immediately understood what we wanted: Her style of photography, her personality, the charitable donations, etc etc. The day of our wedding was super humid (yay Maryland in August), but she did not skip a beat and did not rush us from one point to another - we tried out some posed and "classic" photos but overall she got the "documentary/candid" styles we were looking for.

He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.

Photography register moments for generations to come. It documents lives. It brings you back to the past. It reminds you of how you were feeling at the time those images were taken. This is why I love it so much. And the whole reason why I created “Luxy”. My goal is to help our clients feel the same way I do when I look at photographs of my life. The immense joy and pleasure of knowing that I - as everyone else - have a story to tell!

Tai did our wedding photos and they came out lovely. She was perfect for our budget and didn’t disappoint. My husband and I are long distant as I am so grateful to have these photos to look at while he is away for the next 4-8 months. Thank you, Tai!

Growing up, my mom would take pictures of us on her Kodak. On Saturdays, we would go to the Wal-Mart, have them developed and organize the images into our albums. Throughout the years, we would look through those albums together and those moments are very core memories for my family and I. This is what I want to share with others. Each emotional interaction on a wedding day is an intricate fiber weaved together to create a wonderful story. And I want to share that gift with others - to relive and feel that warmth all over again.

It wasn't until years later at art school in Kansas City that I realized how fulfilling and exciting wedding photography could be. It has been my focus ever since.

Asa is an absolutely amazing photographer to work with. My husband and I booked him for our wedding back in 2017, and we loved our photos so much that I invited him to be a preferred partner at a new event venue I helped open in 2019. He does wonderful work with lighting in particular. As a bride, he made us feel very natural, and we had a lot of fun with our photo session.

I was born and raised in a quiet seaside town on the South Shore of Long Island. I grew up in a place where good, strong love grows with parents who have been together since they were 16 years old. They taught me that true love grows in the face of hardship and, as strong believers in their faith, that love is, indeed, patient and kind. And so as soon as I realized that wedding photography didn’t have to be posed and mechanical; that I could shoot weddings from a more organic and authentic lens; that I could document a story, not direct one, I was hooked!

Having a good photographer was one of my priorities for my wedding. I knew the day was going to be a whirlwind and I wanted to be able to look back and at least have one photo where my eyes weren’t closed or something. Lauren absolutely delivered — I don’t think we’ve ever looked as good in pictures and I know I probably won’t again!! Lauren also recommended Elizabeth for our day-of coordinator and I don’t know what we would have done without her — I definitely would have lost my mind, of that I’m sure. First, I can’t overstate the importance of finding a photographer with whom you have a good rapport — Lauren has this charisma where you instantly feel at ease and like you’ve known her your whole life. It frankly made me less nervous and I think that translates really well in the photos. She’s also a master of making you look the best in posed photos - giving little positioning directions that you look elegant without looking stiff. Every time I look at the pictures I’ll notice another candid moment that Lauren managed to capture or simply marvel at how she somehow can translate emotion in a still picture — I find myself smiling and definitely not crying (jk definitely crying) because you can FEEL what we were feeling in these photos. Second, get you a planner who is superhuman. Elizabeth took over six weeks (!) before the wedding and it was like a literal weight was lifted from my shoulders. At our first meeting she went through her checklist (and mine bc of course I had my own) and said “I’ll take care of it” to literally everything... and then...did?? I was fully prepared to have to follow up with vendors and micromanage but I basically didn’t have to do anything. It was magical. Elizabeth and her team did so much work and went above and beyond in literally every way to ensure we had a perfect day. Anyway, if you’re struggling with choosing a photographer because there are 72525 million to choose from, and you like the style of Lauren’s photos, go for it ASAP. Lauren is incredible and I feel so lucky that we were able to work with her. And if you need a day-of coordinator (or a full blown wedding planner!) pick Elizabeth - she has the eye for design and the capability to pull it off and pull it off well!

At the heart of my process, I believe in being a calming presence who gives you room to be the most genuine version of yourself in front of my camera, gently guiding you with prompts while capturing sophisticated portraits and true moments. As a bride, you know how fleeting the moments of your wedding day will pass you by. So rather than worrying if you’re missing any of it you value being present, and will hire a photographer who will allow you to do just that. This trust grants you the ability to live in the moment while we’re documenting them for you telling the story of your relationships with a gentle authenticity.

My husband and I got married in December 2022 and realized a bit last-minute that we needed a Rehearsal Dinner photographer! Amanda was so accommodating and scheduled a conversation before the big weekend to go over all of our photo dreams and logistics. Not only is Amanda warm, kind, and easy to work with, her photos are absolutely stunning! Her work is light and airy with an incredibly timeless feel. With all the excitement and nerves of wedding weekend, Amanda was the calming presence we needed before our Rehearsal! We loved her photos so much, that we scheduled a Christmas card/one-year wedding anniversary photoshoot with her one year later in November 2023, with two large pups in tow! We give our highest recommendation for Amanda and her work and we are so lucky to call her our new family photographer!

Jenn's professionalism and communication skills are top-notch, making the collaboration process seamless and stress-free. She is highly responsive, consistently keeping me in the loop, which is extremely important to the running of a smooth event. The wedding we worked on together required a high-degree of flexibility, and Jenn was not only capable of handling last-minute changes, but she did so with grace and a positive attitude. And all this before we've even discussed her work. Jenn's photos were beautiful, elevated, and did a great service to every design vendor who participated. She turned around sneak peeks quickly, and even provided the venue with some footage for them to use in their marketing. Highly recommend Jenn for any couple looking for film-quality photos delivered with positivity and professionalism.

Spending my day with you and your closest family and friends brings me such joy, and creating art out of some of the best moments of your life is something I am truly honored to be a part of for so many.

Knowing how much of a financial investment a wedding photographer was going to be, I did not take my decision lightly. I reached out to several companies and had several questions when determining who would be the right fit. And I have to say, Marie was by far the most understanding and compassionate during that process. While many photographers seemed annoyed by the (many) questions I would ask before booking, Marie was patient and very thoughtful with her responses -- she even took time to arrange a phone call with me while traveling! And during that phone call, she made sure I didn't feel rushed and that she answered all questions I had fully, it truly felt like I was talking to a friend. That was when I made the decision to book with Marie. Beyond that, when booking the session for our Engagement photos, she brought several creative and adventurous ideas to the table and had the PERFECT locations to take us to. We had a blast together.
