She's always on time, never cancels, makes recommendations and suggestions and works magic with whatever input or ideas you have, and her photographs come out beautiful. She has captured quite a few moments in my life thus far including my wedding and she will continue to be the only person I entrust all my family photos to.

I’m sure your mind is racing with all that needs to be planned. It’s all very exciting but it can also be somewhat overwhelming. You’re planning the day that you’ve been anticipating your whole life and yet you only get one shot at it! By the time you get the hang of it, the planning is over! My goal as a wedding photographer is to make this one aspect of the planning process simple. Photography is more than just images, it’s a real part of your day. Not only do you deserve beautiful images, you also deserve an amazing photographic experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
I absolutely LOVED working with Sarah as my wedding photographer! From the moment I booked her until the final gallery was delivered, I couldn't have had a better experience. Sarah made everything so fun, made me feel like her most important client, and most of all, genuinely cared about what my husband and I hoped for in our wedding photos. She brought so much energy to our day, and was an absolute joy to hang out with all day. My husband, not one for all the details and photos, even had the best experience of his life with her. Best of all, we are in LOVE with each and every one of the photos from Sarah! Each one perfectly captures a memory and a moment (in the most beautiful possible way) that my husband and I will treasure forever. We cannot recommend Sarah enough!!

I'm a Las Vegas based professional wedding photographer, working with couples from all over the world, as well as a travelling wedding photographer. Along with adoring weddings, I'm a serious hockey fan, with silver hair, and a terribly awkward smile. When I’m not photographing people, I love photographing Lego Minifigs on location, Darth Vader being a favorite (and personal hero) but I like expanding my collection of character portraits. I have a wicked sense of humor, a weakness for Rom Com’s & Spanish red wine. In my personal time I work closely with a local dog rescue, as a foster home and photographer, helping find their furever homes.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had never been to Vegas before getting married there and Victoria eased all my wedding planning and photography fears! She is super knowledgeable about the area and recommend the perfect spot for our pre-ceremony pictures based on what we wanted. They turned out beautiful! She was also great at navigating some big or difficult personalities flawlessly the day of by staying calm and fun and keeping everything relaxing! We are obsessed with our pictures and I can’t recommend her enough.

She did photos from getting ready (she even helped the bride with her makeup because she was melting), climbed up on tables, benches, playground equipment anything to get the shot.

I began my photography journey in 2008 and have been shooting ever since! My love of music and travel initially took me to Nashville, where I studied under some of the best celebrity and music photographers in the business. The City of Music lead me to tour with Jesse McCartney and shoot some amazing musicians including Blake Shelton, Outkast, and the Backstreet Boys (a personal childhood dream of mine). However, the mountains were calling (as they say), and I ended up moving back to Colorado, my home state, in 2015 to begin my journey documenting love in all its forms!

There is nothing I love more than capturing the special moments, that you will cherish forever. This is what inspired me to become a dedicated Wedding Photographer since 2008. My mission as your wedding photographer is to capture the fleeting moments in life, celebrate the value of marriage, and create luxurious images that will last a lifetime. My main goal, when you look back at your images 60 years from now, we want you to remember how you felt, the love between you, the beauty, the real and honest moments and emotions.​

If you're reading this review, don't walk—RUN to Mary. She's a true master of her craft, capturing moments that make you feel like the most perfect bride imaginable. It's not just about the photographs; it's about the entire experience and atmosphere she creates during the session. For many, posing for photos can feel awkward, but with Mary, you're in expert hands. She knows exactly how to put you at ease, guiding you effortlessly through each shot to ensure both your comfort and the stunning results. While her portfolio speaks volumes, I'm here to share my firsthand experience as a recent bride : Mary made my day absolutely unforgettable. Her sneak peeks knocked my socks off, so I can only imagine what the full album will look like. Invest in Mary without hesitation. She's not just a photographer; she's a born artist, destined for this profession. My heartfelt thanks to Mary and her team for creating nothing short of perfection on my special day.

Picking a wedding photographer is honestly one of the most stressful parts of wedding planning simply because there are so many options and it’s hard to find one you trust. We were so lucky to run into Nicole at a wedding show and we instantly knew she was not only professional and kind, but that we can trust that she would put her all into her work. Nicole constantly met and exceeded my expectations. She is extremely organized, thorough and creative. You honestly cannot find a better wedding photographer out there. Not only for her wonderful personality and the ease that you will be able to work with her, but her style and art are truly breathtaking.

I have been professionally capturing images for over 10 years.

If you close your eyes and think of your wedding day-- what do you see? Grandma smiling as she hands you her pearls to wear for the day. Your mom helping you into your dress, as a tear rolls down her face. Your fiance beaming as you walk down the aisle. Your dad kissing your cheek as he gives you away. The best man pats your fiance's back while your maid of honor fixes your gown. Your guests roaring as you're pronounced married! All of those smiles, tears, and cheering-- Curious Courtney captured it all-- plus some. They snapped a shot of your perfume as you spritzed it so every time you see that photo it's as if you can smell it. You can practically taste your cake again as you look at the photos of you smashing the cake into your significant other's face. Mia and Chris capture more than just a moment-- they capture the atmosphere, the emotion, and make you feel like you're reliving the whole day every time you look at your photos.

She makes sure to get the pictures parents will want and then makes sure there’s time for photos that really show our character. Prior to our wedding, she was helping to keep us on track with any tasks and she helped answer any questions we had along the way. Day of, she kept us calm and having fun with the photos. Emma is this great balance of buttoned up and professional and easy going so you never feel stressed. We got our first look gallery back just two days after our wedding and WOW.

If you are looking for an incredible experience, Azaria will provide that for you! She is an exceptional photographer. It takes great skill to take beautiful pictures, and to cater an experience to their clients particular taste and vision and then exceed all of their expectations. The amount of time and effort (before, during and after our wedding), Azaria put into our photos, astonished me. She provided structure to our chaos (there was a lot of it), support and solutions to our issues (there were even more of those), and more importantly, helped me go pee when I had a giant wedding gown on. In the age of overly filtered pictures, she will show you beauty in the natural. She is a genuine person with great talent and a beautiful heart. We are happy to call her friend and will be sharing ALL of our special moments with her in the future. We love her! Thank you, Azaria!

Mayah was such a pleasure to work with! She was incredibly professional and sweet throughout - from the first point of contact to delivering the photos. She makes an effort to understand what is important for you to leave the day with and what feelings are important to capture. The day itself felt very comfortable as she is very easygoing and nice, as well as knows how to give directions of what to do to get the right poses.

Emily and I have worked together on a number of occasions, and I have always had so much fun and learned a ton! While there are tons of great photographers out there (and Emily certainly stands out as a top-tier photographer), the thing that makes her so incredible is how she is on the day. She has the ability to predict what you need before you need it, keep everything running smoothly, and make the day about you. I remember the first time we worked together, my shoes were giving me blisters so she just pulled out these tiny high-heel bandaids that IMMEDIATELY took all the pressure off and let me work efficiently for the rest of the night! Emily is there when you need her, and in the shadows when you don't. She is professional, kind, and courteous. Ultimately, you really just don't find many other photographers like her. If you're on the fence about it, just hop on a call with her. You'll see for yourself :P

She was able to help us with poses, as we were not exactly sure what we wanted or how we wanted them to look and had no idea what we were doing! She helped us begin to come into our own a little and made the entire process engaging, relaxing, and really fun! As for the results, they were just amazing.

She made us laugh the entire time, got just as excited as I did (if not more) over details for the flat lay, and was the perfect match for my husband's sarcasm. What more could you want in a photographer? What drew me, initially, to Natalie was her bright and light photos that captured candid moments beautifully. My husband and I have a very fun-loving personality and to find a photographer that captured every laugh was an instant-win. Natalie took our engagement photos and our wedding photos and we could not be happier, as every photo was absolutely amazing and told a story throughout the engagement session and wedding.

When you hire me, you hire not only a photographer, but a planner and a cheerleader as well ;) If you like dogs or cats, coffee (oat milk lattes FTW), thriving plants, outdoor adventures, dancing, and sunsets, I think we'll get along great ;)

I can’t say enough great things about Helena! We found her by briefly searching through Instagram and were in awe of her work. What stood out from the start was her unique ability to capture the happiest of moments, nothing ever looking staged or forced. She was so incredibly responsive right away! I proceeded to “interview” Helena and from the first phone conversation she put me at ease. I had “interviewed” at least 5-6 other photographers, and kept coming back to her galleries. On the day of our scheduled shoot, the Bay Area fire season led to some unpredictable issues - air quality, smoke and hazy sky. Helena worked with us through changing the original location two hours before the shoot and her positivity never skipped a beat. Throughout the photoshoot, it felt like we were hanging out with a close friend - Helena has a true talent for making people feel comfortable! She directed us through the process and contributed to many laughs along the way. Her beautifully captured photos were delivered in such a quick manner - I’m honestly stunned, don’t know how she does it! Thank you, Helena. We will be sure to work with her again in the future!

I cannot recommend Amanda/Salt Ivy Photography enough. When choosing a photographer for our wedding and for our post-wedding mountaintop shoot (instead of an engagement photoshoot), we wanted a photographer who had a unique artistic vision who produced dynamic and emotional shots. We wanted photography that really stood out and was not the run of the mill wedding photography. Most of all, we wanted photography that captured the authentic emotional connection we have and the incredible energy of our big day. When I saw Amanda's work, I knew she was the one. Not only was her work absolutely STUNNING, but she was incredible to work with. We had to change our wedding date 3 total times due to Covid... and even moved it out of state halfway through... Amanda was always flexible, understanding, accommodating and encouraging. The day of the wedding she was calm, loving, fun, and her energy really made the day even more special. Our post-wedding hike/photoshoot the next day was one of the most enjoyable parts of our entire wedding experience. Amanda is not only a phenomenal photographer and artist, but an even better human. 10000000000000/10 recommend.

I’m so glad you’re here. Really. My name is Katie Griffith, I’m 25 years old, living in the gorgeous mountains of Utah. Although it gets so cold and snowy here, you really can’t beat the Utah outdoors. The mountains feel like my second home. Ive been married to my best friend for over 3 years now, and our lil pack consists of our baby girl and our Golden Retriever. These three are my whole world! Honestly, I never knew this level of happiness existed before they came into my life. Ive been photographing weddings and elopements for 5+ years now, and I love what I do! I couldn't imagine doing anything else! This is truly my dream job.

Katie was the best choice ever and the most amazing wedding photographer. We couldn't have asked for better wedding photos! She was so organized and energetic day-of - all of my family members commented how great she was to work with. She made everything run very smoothly. I was able to run a million questions by her ahead of time regarding the timeline and other details, she always made herself available and was super responsive. I am absolutely obsessed with our wedding photos, she did an amazing job and I can't thank her enough!

I first met Danielle when she put together a styled shoot and my boyfriend and I used the shoot as a date opportunity. Lol She did such a wonderful job and we loved her so much when he proposed to me a year later she was the first person I KNEW I wanted to photograph our wedding. She worked with our budget and helping me figure out how much time and how many photos I could afford. She got every photo on my list and my husband and I felt so comfortable with her too. She was so fun to have at our wedding with us. When I got pregnant she was our first call to take maternity photos. It had been pouring rain in the desert and she still captured BEAUTIFUL shots for us and even brought a dress for me to wear. Again, she took photos for us when our daughter was born and with my entire family which included 9 kids under the age of 15. Every single person ended up with stellar shots and we had several photos as a full group of 17 people where everyone was looking and smiling. Lol strongly recommend her, Danielle is someone you’ll want to keep with you through the years. As a photographer and a friend!

Any questions we had she answered, so it was great to have quick communication with her, as most of our vendors took almost a week to get back to us! We go through our photos all the time, and I can honestly say our wedding photos are so much better than my friend's photos! We also had a full album and parent albums in our collection. Our main album came in a gorgeous wooden box. Our parent's album were custom created for them, instead of a replica. We even got a few large photos to decorate our home. They are absolutely gorgeous! We were very happy we did purchase them and Angelica delivered them within two to three months from our wedding! Thanks to her always following up with us, we were able to get our albums designed, our wall art photos chosen, and helped us guide our parents as to what photos to choose for their albums. I have friends still waiting for their albums and photos and it's been almost a year. You can't go wrong with Angelica Criscuolo Photography.

I'm a huge lover of the outdoors and quiet mornings with a huge cup of coffee and reading on the balcony.

I'm thrilled you're here and planning one of the biggest days of your lives! I've had the privilege of capturing weddings at some of the most beautiful venues San Diego has to offer. Whether you're planning your big day at a beach resort, a winery, or even the zoo, you can count on me to capture both stunning portraits and raw candid moments of you and your loved ones on your wedding day. My style uses natural light and vivid colors, while keeping skin tones rich and true to life. I also love to emphasize storytelling with a few black and whites for an overall feel that is magically timeless yet still modern.

I don’t even know where to begin to start singing Alyssa’s praises other than to say, hire her immediately if not sooner! My partner and I got married at Stone Brewing Liberty Station in May 2023, and Alyssa captured the day (and more) so beautifully and in a way that truly captured us. We looked through a lot of photographers recommended by our venue and others, and none of their work really stood out to us until we saw Alyssa’s photos. Her photography is truly stunning and exudes warmth and depth. We wanted someone who could capture us, not make things feel overly forced, and emphasize candid moments. Alyssa did that and more. From the moment we reached out to her to the end of the evening at our wedding, she was a true gem to work with. We even ended up doing an engagement session with her, as it was part of her package, and an opportunity to meet. She took time to get to know us, helped make sure we felt comfortable, thought through timelines with our other vendors, made wonderful suggestions that helped make the photos (and day) even more memorable, and truly was all around such a joy to work with. Lastly, multiple friends and family members came up to us throughout our wedding and said how they could truly feel so much love and warmth in the air. Alyssa’s photos captured that feeling for a lifetime.

I’m an introverted extrovert. And although I’m a terrible singer, I love to chant my favorite songs – everything from T. Swift to hip hop – when I’m in the car! I love tiramisu and coffee with too much milk. Scarves are one of my must-have accessories! I’m addicted to design of all kinds – interior, landscape, graphic, food, fashion, all of it. Childhood memories include Strawberry Shortcake dolls, Fashion Plates, and Fruity Pebbles cereal. And I always had a camera nearby, just like my Dad. Little did I know what an impact these early days would have on my future!

Stephanie is so awesome!! She was able to capture every moment on our day, big and small! Aside from the obvious talent she has to take amazing pictures- she’s an even better person and so fun to work with! She also has so much knowledge about weddings, and she really helped our day run smoothly.

We’ve worked with Jada several times, and each time has produced a wonderful session! She’s a fun, upbeat person who brings the energy, and she’s a unique photographer who delivers unique photos that are tailored to each of her couples. Our engagement session was actually taken in the near dark, but she edited the photos wonderfully and you could never guess! I recommend her to everyone!!

Hey! I'm Emilie, photographer, world traveler and story teller. I am currently living in Florida while building out a bus to live in and travel the country (and maybe even the world) photographing and telling love stories! I started photographing weddings 6 years ago but I have been capturing memories for as long as I can remember, I can't go anywhere without a camera! I've traveled all over the world telling love stories and every couple I meet is just as inspiring as the last. If you'll have me, I would love to be a part of your story too!

Awarded Best of Zola
Emilie did so amazing I can't even begin to describe how happy we are with her work. The energy she gives off is so positive and welcoming, it feels like your shooting with an old friend. She is so passionate about photography, every photo was creatively and thoughtfully planned out. She truly has a heart for adventure and it translates into the photos she takes, with the most unique locations and truly original ideas. So grateful we found her for this special day.

Wedding photography for unconventional people. At the core of my practice as a wedding photographer, I believe: - that if your wedding traditions are not authentic and meaningful to you, then you deserve the freedom to build new traditions. - that men, women, and people of all genders are beautiful and deserve to have that beauty celebrated. - that we are most beautiful when we love fully and without reserve. - that no wedding or elopement is too small to commemorate. - that photographs are the record of memory and of personal history. - that you deserve to remember this.

My husband and I hired Kate to capture our civil ceremony at SF City Hall. We had our symbolic ceremony abroad a few more weeks out but wanted to sign the papers ahead of time first at home. She was very professional and so organized. Loved knowing I could rely on her guidance and expertise which was so needed given how much was going on around that time. Some of the photos took my breath away and she made both of us feel very at ease throughout the process. Highly recommend.

Hi I'm Patty, your wedding photographer. I am based in West Michigan and spend over 50% of my season servicing Detroit & Chicago couples. Along with servicing the Michigan and Chicago market, I have slowly begun to expand my territory to include destination work with places like Texas, Virginia, Florida and Spain. I serve couples who understand that this season is one worth being celebrated and remembered. The couples who embrace their family and their people however that looks. Most importantly I serve those who see these photographs as an investment into their legacy.

Choosing Patty to be our photographer was the greatest decision we’ve ever made! From the moment we met her to receiving our wedding photos, Patty was INCREDIBLE. She made a wonderful effort to get to know us before our engagement shoot. Not only is Patty a phenomenal photographer, but she has also become such a sweet friend - going as far to lend me her Hulu password so we could be caught up on How I Met Your Father together. I felt like she understood our style and matched our energy wonderfully. During our engagement shoot in Saugatuck, Michigan, I was insistent we went to the beach to take some photos. Little did we know it would be a nearly mile hike in the heat of summer to get there. Despite sweating our butts off, Patty had a smile on her face the entire time and was incredibly professional. The photos were breathtaking and exceeded our expectations. During our wedding day Patty was there for every special moment, big and small. We didn’t worry once about the photos because we knew we were in wonderful hands. We had about 225 guests and both have big families, Patty was able to manage all of us during our family portraits! Patty is such a genuine person with a remarkable eye and talent. We can’t recommend Patty enough to be your wedding photographer!
