Christopher Ginn Studios

  • Photographer
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Grand Mound, IA for additional fees

I bought my first DSLR camera in 2004 when my now wife, Tracey, and I were taking a cruise to Alaska. For a monumental trip like this, I HAD to get an amazing camera. Those 8.2 megapixels with nine four points had me in LOVE. Ever since then, the ability of a photograph to be able to freeze time; freeze an emotion; freeze a memory has kept me addicted. Whether it’s getting a great angle, finding light that tells the story, or capturing the true personality of someone; it all brings a smile to my face and hopefully yours!

Bringing unforgettable celebrations to life since 2021, Antidote Productions specializes in destination weddings along the breathtaking coasts of Washington and Oregon. Based in the heart of the Pacific Northwest, we design extraordinary events across Washington, Oregon, California, and Arizona—each one tailored to reflect the unique theme and vision of every couple we serve. Whether set indoors or beneath a stunning marquee tent, our weddings are bold, beautiful, and over the top!

We are so grateful for Kimberley and her incredible team- they were a huge part of what made our wedding day so special. While she wasn't technically our wedding planner (we chose to not hire one)- she absolutely filled that role and so much more, helping us create a personalized and unforgettable wedding night. From our very first call, Kimberley was warm, excited and genuinely interested in hearing our vision. Her experience in the event space was clear from the start. She helped us plan every detail- from celebratory champagne while getting ready, to beautiful florals (including my dream bouquet, which she made), coordinating all rentals through her vendors, and even picking up our wedding cake. After our Oregon coast ceremony, we had appetizers and a private chef dinner at our airbnb for our 14 guests- and the food experience was truly unforgettable. Kimberley's chef and sous chef, were incredible! The chef built a thoughtful, elegant menu that felt perfectly tailored to the setting and the occasion. Appetizers included fresh oysters, shrimp cocktail and ceviche- all beautifully prepared and displayed. Dinner was perfectly cooked steak, butter garlic mashed potatoes, tender asparagus and scallops, paired with a curated selection of local OR wines. Every dish was crafted with care and brought a sense of luxury and warmth to the evening. The chef and sous chef not only prepared everything to perfection but were also professional, friendly and seamlessly integrated into the flow of the night. The tablescape that Kimberley created was another unforgettable highlight- elegant, timeless and even more beautiful than what we imagined. It brought everything together in the most stunning way. Communication throughout the planning process was consistent and reassuring, especially because we live in Colorado and the wedding weekend took place in Oregon. Kimberley regularly checked in to make sure every detail aligned with our vision and because of her thoroughness and care, we felt completely at ease leading into the big weekend. On the day of, her team executed everything with precision and heart. They were warm, attentive, and brought such a calm, grounding energy to the space. Everything was timed perfectly and we were free to enjoy the experience of getting married without any stress. We truly can't thank Kimberley, Chef Michael, and the team enough! My husband and I, as well as our family and friends would absolutely recommend this team for any event. They created a wedding night that was intimate, elegant and deeply personal - a celebration we'll never forget!

Hey!! Congratulations and I'm so excited you're here! My name's Lissa (pronounced "Lyss-uh") and photographs are my jam! Also my jam? Bright colors, the lamest jokes, floral everything, weird history, and awesome ghost stories. I'm a total mother hen / perpetual big sister and I'm mom to Max, Henry, and Penelope. I love creating. I garden. I sew. I crochet. I design ridiculously cute tee shirts. But most of all? I freaking love creating photographs. A professional photographer since 2011 (eek!), my photographs are bright, happy, and totally meant to hit you in the feels. But most of all? They're a total party!

Awarded Best of Zola
It was such a pleasure having Lissa as the photographer for our wedding. She has taken several photos for me and my family throughout the years, and each time the photos have always been exactly what we wanted. Her photos are vibrant, full of color, and full of feeling. Lissa was sure to respond quickly to contracts, questions, and provided information in a timely manner. She listened to our desires and concerns, and when needed she provided feedback that helped us feel more comfortable and excited to work with her. She is incredibly easy to work with her. She was flexible with any photo requests that came up in the moment, and she guided and directed us for other shots she felt would turn out well when we weren't sure what to do next. She was professional and courteous to all of our wedding guests and yet always made sure to prioritize our (the bride and groom) desires and time as opposed to the rest of our wedding party. She had a happy, yet focused disposition while working with us. That focus was evident in the BEAUTIFUL pictures she took. She perfectly captured our joy that day. Turnaround time was better than expected, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We have no regrets with our choice of wedding photographer. She's amazing!

We are not joking when we say that we hired Saja from Mawaddah productions at 8:30 am on our wedding day after realizing that we almost made one of the biggest mistakes by not having a videographer.

We were amazed that Saja not only managed to travel two hours from Boston to Alstead New Hampshire with a last minute notice for the job, but also exceeded our expectations by capturing all these priceless and unforgettable moments with little to no preparation other than a timeline flyer a few hours beforehand. The cinematography is insane: she films so beautifully and candidly, and her attention to details is unparalleled. Through her art and vision, she was able to translate this day which needless to say, went by overwhelmingly fast, into such a beautiful beautiful endless everlasting memory that we can now forever replay. We ABSOLUTELY ADOREDDDD the teaser, the short wedding film and the feature film. We shared it with our entire families and friends and they are completely in love. The short wedding film is on constant repeat. We could not thank her and recommend her enough for her incredible work and talent.

I mix editorial and documentary style photography for a wedding gallery that feels nostalgic and luxurious. I am here to make the never-shot-before-couple look like they belong in a magazine spread and I will capture candid, living, details and moments on your wedding day that will bring you back to that first touch time and time again. We are a husband and wife team that offers wedding photography and super 8 films. We also have a team of associate photographers for those on a budget.

I chose not to have a videographer because I knew the quality and experience that Brittany and her husband would give us. And she went above and beyond our expectations. I still to this day look at my photos daily and am in awe of them. She captured every moment of the day beautifully and I couldn’t be more grateful to her. She continues to be a part of my life and took our maternity photos. Brittany is not only involved with our biggest life events & capturing those moments but she made our experience so personal before, during, and after. I continue to have contact with Brittany and I love the relationship we were able to build over the years. Her prices are always fair for the quality, personally I think she could charge more because of how amazing her work is. But she’s fair and understands the expenses of life. I can’t wait to continue to work with Brittany and love to see all her work.

If you’re looking to hire a wedding photographer who can capture your big day in a “not so traditional” way, then you’re in the right place. We are Alternative Portraiture & Documentary Wedding Photographers based in sunny (and sometimes rainy) South Florida, and we like to think of ourselves as friendly, honest, and quirky (the good kind, we promise). We are creative beings at heart and love to tell stories unconventionally.

From the moment we met Erika and Loy for our engagement shoot, we knew we had found something special. They made two self-proclaimed awkward people feel totally at ease in front of the camera. It didn’t feel like posing—it felt like laughing, dancing, and being fully ourselves, all while they worked their magic. The photos captured not just how we looked, but who we are. We walked away from that session with more than beautiful images—we walked away with memories. Fast forward to our wedding day, and they absolutely blew us away. Our friends and family keep raving about the photos: “absolutely stunning,” “so artsy,” “journalistic,” “soulful,” and “hilarious and beautiful at the same time.” The photos brought the emotion of the day flooding back—joy, intimacy, hilarity, and everything in between. Every little detail, every fleeting look, every big, beautiful moment—it’s all there. They somehow captured the energy of the day, not just the visuals. We’ve gone through the gallery more times than we can count, and each time we see something new to love. From my dad’s emotional first look to the spontaneous dance floor chaos to those quiet moments between us in Adirondack chairs—it’s all so genuine and full of heart. Working with Erika and Loy wasn’t just hiring photographers—it was inviting two incredibly talented, kind, and charismatic humans into some of the most important moments of our lives. We can’t imagine having had anyone else there with us. If you’re considering them—do it. Truly, 10 out of 10.

I have photographed over 400 weddings, and what I appreciate more than ever, are the real moments that happen on every wedding day. Those moments will never be replicated. It is important to choose a photographer that you not only trust to capture those moments, but will enjoy sharing that space with you as they do.

Stephen and his team are hands down the best wedding photographers in Indy! You will not be disappointed. I was a professional wedding photographer for over a decade & when it was time to hire a photographer for my daughter’s wedding he was my first call. Our photos were simply beautiful. Stephen is one of the best storytellers in the industry. He understands composition, lighting & captures emotions like no other. Hiring someone to capture such an monumental moment is so nerve-racking, but it you hire Stephen and his team you can sit back and relax knowing you will not be disappointed!!!!

Whether you're envisioning an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, we work closely with you to bring your dream wedding to life, ensuring that every moment is seamless and memorable.

My partner and I were married late summer 2024 and we (and our guests) couldn’t stop raving about Ariel and her team. Ariel went above and beyond to make our day run so smoothly. From set up, to greeting and paying vendors, to tear down, we were able to be so present in a day that could have been so stressful because we knew we were in great hands. We debated whether or not we would hire a day of coordinator and Xtraordinary Coordinations turned out to be the most important vendor of our special day! In the lead up to our day, Ariel met with us several times (including a venue walkthrough) and is so personable and charismatic, the meetings that could have been really stressful were actually really fun! I wish I was having another wedding so I could hire Xtraordinary Coordinations again!

We feel so lucky to have found Andrew as our wedding photographer. He has an incredible eye for the editorial style and makes his photos into works of art with golden light and chiaroscuro. So many photographers just rely on their high-res equipment but don't offer anything more--I don't want a macro shot of every pore or line on my face like an owl in a tree at 100 yards, I want to have a sense of magic and beauty in every photo. Andrew actually does that. I almost cried when I saw our first look photos because I don't feel very confident being photographed and I finally had dozens of photos of myself and my husband that I want to share with friends immediately and cherish forever. He delivered the first look so fast, even though I know he was busy working another wedding; I thought for sure we would have to wait longer. The wedding package we chose included very nice touches like polaroids so we had something in hand at the end of the wedding day itself, too. It was very thoughtful and left us feeling good about the whole experience right away. He was very personal and nice to work with, but not intrusive, and went with the little schedule changes we had, and was open to suggestions while we took post-ceremony photos around the city. I couldn't be happier with our experience with him and would recommend him highly to anyone looking for a real artist for their wedding photography.
