As a young couple getting married, it was scary to trust a company to provide everything we needed, but we felt very confident when we talked with Steve. The communication with Steve was great and smooth! They offered a Photographer, Videographer, DJ, and Photo booth! Ron, Austin, and DeAndre were the dream team. If I could give more than five stars, I would.

It all started with a hand-me-down camera and my obsession with weddings. I discovered my passion for photography as a teenager, and I’ve been hooked ever since! After earning my degree in Paralegal Studies, I decided it was time to pursue my dream. There’s something about photographing weddings that brings me true happiness. I love capturing the genuine connection between couples on their big day. When I’m not behind the camera, I’m spending time with my family! I have a beautiful little boy and one precious, fluffy dog. I also love reading books and taking weekend road trips with my friends and family.

I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.

My name is Elliot Stokes and I am a photographer located in the Madison, WI area, but I work all across Wisconsin and Illinois. I have been drawn to the camera since I was young, but becoming a father has really shown me the magic behind capturing the most candid and beautiful moments of our lives. I started my journey into professional photography officially in the summer of 2019 and received my Bachelors of Fine Arts degree with honors in Digital Photography in the spring of 2022. I absolutely love what I do and look forward to every new experience and opportunity this journey takes me on!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Elliot was, hands-down, the best decision we made while planning our elopement. We were worried he'd not want to hike with us at Starved Rock State Park after our ceremony, but he was stoked to go on the adventure with us. He got to our ceremony spot with time to spare and was able to capture us gathering our 5 witnesses and walking them to the ceremony spot. Our ceremony pictures are so emotional. Elliot has a gift for capturing the depth of emotion being felt. He got beautiful photos of us with our parents that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. After the ceremony, we hiked for THREE HOURS!!! in and out of the canyons at Starved Rock State Park. The photos we got can only be described as fuc*ing epic. There were two canyons in particular I wanted to have photos taken and we were able to do both and so much before, after, and in between. We also got an insanely gorgeous video shot with drone footage, that we used to announce our elopement to our family and friends. We also got our sneak peaks back so fast! He was really good at directing us, especially as a couple who has never taken professional photos together before. He just made the whole process, the entire day, so much fun. We genuinely had such a great time and they are memories that we will never forget! Elliot was on time, professional, friendly, an expert in his field, and he did an absolutely outstanding job at capturing the most magical day of our lives. I still cannot believe these are OUR wedding photos. Thank you for everything, Elliot!

TWA Photographic Artists were straightforward and direct in their communication, and kept us on schedule throughout our wedding day. Their work was great, capturing many timeless and detailed shots. However, at times they seemed a bit hurried when working with our wedding party and guests, though they remained attentive and eager to get the right shots. For example, the photographer remembered the little details that made our photos special, but we felt a bit rushed after the ceremony and didn't fully capture the joy of those moments. Overall, TWA provided solid photography services, but could have been a bit more patient and attuned to our desired pace for the day.

We specialize in documentary-style micro weddings and elopements, which means we focus on capturing your day as it naturally unfolds. Instead of staging or posing moments, we observe and photograph the real, unscripted emotions, connections, and intimate details that make your celebration unique. Our goal is to tell your love story authentically, preserving the genuine moments that reflect the true essence of your special day.

My husband and I were beyond impressed with our entire experience with Debra Aslanidis Photography. From start to finish Debra made my experience as a bride so smooth and stress-free. Wedding planning can be a stressful process, but Debra provided excellent communication about what to expect leading up to the wedding and the day of, so we felt very at ease the entire time. When I ran into an unrelated issue (a problem with another vendor), Debra reached out and sent me recommendations and offered support while I dealt with the situation. It was unbelievably kind and not at all expected, but it really made me feel cared for and I appreciated Debra going above and beyond for me! On the day of our wedding, Debra and her partner Jeremy were absolutely phenomenal. For one, they worked so perfectly together. We had guests complimenting how well they worked and coordinated together! I seriously can’t thank them enough for not only being amazing photographers, but also helping with other tasks that they voluntarily did. I seriously felt like they assumed the role of our wedding coordinators at times, since we didn’t have one, by providing suggestions and opinions since they’re the experienced ones when it comes to weddings! I couldn’t be more thankful for their confidence and comfortability in doing so! Finally, I am seriously blown away by the fact that we got our photos about a month after our wedding day! Debra has worked weddings, engagement shoots, and other photoshoots every single weekend and has a family, yet still managed to bust her butt to finish our photos, and it was the best surprise to get our photos back right before celebrating one month of marriage. I am so in love with our photos and have looked at them every single day, multiple times a day, since getting them back. Photos are the one thing you keep from your wedding day (besides your memories!), and I am absolutely in love with the final photos! The editing is beautiful, and I’m so happy we prioritized finding a photographer who emphasizes the behind-the-scenes and candid moments. I love that our pictures are 100% in the moment and capture the real, raw emotions of everyone! There were several detailed shots of our venue and decor and I love those just as much as I love the ones of me, my husband, our families, and our friends! They’re all so stunning!! Our photos made me laugh, cry, audibly say “awww,” and smile the biggest, cheesy grin. I absolutely believe your photographer is one of the most important vendors you choose for your wedding day, and I would 1000% recommend Debra Aslanidis Photography to everyone I know!!

They personally captured all of our most important details, and made us feel so comfortable throughout the day. We enjoyed having them there, and they were so sweet and kind to our whole family. Leading up to the wedding, they were incredibly thorough, asking all the right questions to ensure they focused on the things that mattered most to us. Even with our small micro-wedding, they knew exactly what they were doing and kept our timeline on track while allowing us to fully enjoy every moment. We couldn't be happier with the incredible service and value 505 Media Company provided on our special day.

I've always been an artist, but my love for photography truly took hold when I photographed my first wedding in 2007. That day, I fell in love with everything about weddings— getting to work with all kinds of people and personalities, capturing every moment and each detail, and even getting to bust a move on the dance floor every now and then.
