I love to provide timeless imagery, delivered through a seamless and joyful experience!

Since meeting Jaimie in 2019, we have had nothing but positive things to say about her!! We used Jaimie Lauren Collective for our engagement and wedding photos and have now used JLC for our newborn and family sessions - all have been great experiences! Not only do Jaimie and her team produce quality photos and video, but Jaimie herself is a wonderful presence to have at your event or special day. She is kind, calm, patient, knowledgeable, and helpful! She instantly makes you feel comfortable and at ease. We got married in 2020 and had to deal with all of the craziness of a Covid wedding. Jaimie was extremely sympathetic to our situation and was so easy to work with! For any occasion, we highly recommend Jaimie Lauren Collective!

Hey! I'm Tess! I'm a photographer based out of the Twin Cities Metro serving couples and families in Minnesota and Wisconsin. With nearly 15 years of photography experience and 9 years working with couples, I'm dedicated to making you feel relaxed and comfortable on your wedding day.

As a wedding planner, I've had the opportunity to work with several photographers. That being said, Tess was a joy and a pleasure to work with! She followed the timeline very well and communicated throughout the event with any pertinent information. Following the event, she sent a fully edited gallery within the requested timeline. The gallery was absolutely stunning and you can see the amount of effort that went into each photograph. Tess was wonderful to work with and I highly recommend working with her! I would be lucky to work with her again in the future.

Zoe Yates Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves New Richmond, WI

As both a photographer and writer, I've found my niche focusing on the bits that make up each love story and wedding day. The quiet moments, the fierce ones, the happy and nostalgic ones. While I make sure clients get all the shots they need, my focus is to simply capture the day as it happens, documenting the moments that will fade from memory as time goes by. My style has a modern twist on classic photojournalistic-style—true to life color with a bit of mood, at times sharp and others soft, with creative composition and approach.

Zoe is an empathetic creator that listens. She made us feel relaxed and listened to our wants and needs for our day. She supported us by helping to create a timeline for our wedding, and took the time to check in with us several times throughout the process. Not only are her photos beautiful, but she doesn’t shy away from trying new things. The way she captured emotions from our guests and us on our day made us feel so blessed that we found her as our photographer. We actually cried seeing the photos that came back to us after our wedding. So stunning. Photographers really can make a difference on your wedding day, and Zoe definitely did.

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!

We hired VIDART for our wedding in Palatine, and honestly the photos turned out way better then I expected. The ceremony ran late and we lost some daylight, but he was super quick with lighting adjustments and somehow made everything feel warm and moody. My only regret is not booking an extra hour because the dance floor shots are incredible and I wish we had more. Highly recomended.

Awarded Best of Zola
The photographer, Jonathan, and his assistant, were absolutely amazing. They arrived early, were flexible and really accommodating to our vision. They also really hustled! They took advantage of every spare moment they had to get additional photos, and kept us on schedule super tightly. They even carried around things like bottles of water for me (the bride) as we took lots of photos in the hot upper floor of the venue. Many guests also mentioned how beautifully the photos turned out. However, we did have an issue in which, due to an injury to the editor's hand, we did not receive our photos in the agreed-upon timeframe. Had we been informed of this delay ahead of time, we would not have had any issue just waiting a bit longer. The main concern was that we weren't alerted of this delay until after the initial deadline had passed. We did request a discount due to this, which they accommodated. And the photos did still turn out amazing!

Devyn is absolutely amazing! She is so fun to work with. She effortlessly made me feel instantly comfortable, and she was so encouraging and wonderful throughout our whole shoot. I have a bigger body, so I was a little nervous going in, but I’m in LOVE with my gallery— she really made me feel so beautiful and captured me in a way I didn’t even know was possible. She made me fall more in love with myself, and we had the funnest time together. We then did a very cool moody lights session together which I loved! She’s so great at communication, too! Any time I get to work with her, I know it’s going to be a great experience with beautiful results. I’ve been a fan of her work for a long time, and I highly recommend her for any of your photo needs!

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
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Maurissa was without a doubt the BEST DECISION we made for our wedding day! I literally cannot say enough good things to do her and her services justice. Even our whole wedding party and family that interacted with Maurissa throughout wedding day have also shared how awesome she was. She was fantastic from the moment we had our first introduction – she was so communicative and reassuring and worked with us to make sure we knew everything about Mind of Mo services prior to booking. That first impression is what helped us make our choice with booking her, and boy-oh-boy did she follow-through more than we could have imagined! Maurissa was also extremely patient with me - as a Type A Bride, I had sent her a lengthy list of desired photos prior to wedding day. I joked that it was a lot and she made me feel like it was totally normal. I know now that I never had to do this because her vision was magical - our favorite and featured photo is from our Sneak Peeks and was all her! What you want in a photographer is not only someone who will capture amazing photos, but also someone who will guide you through your wedding day. This is the person you will have the most interaction with all day long. Maurissa made the day fun, breezy, and even when we did have those anticipated mishaps occur (we knew there’d be at least one) she swooped in and literally saved the day. I am not being dramatic – my false eyelashes fell off not once but TWICE. The first time was right before my first look with my husband which caused a delay in our Timeline, and Maurissa flawlessly pivoted to make sure we stayed on track with time while they were re-glued onto my face. Then the second time the eyelashes came off, it was Maurissa herself who stepped up to the plate to make sure those babies were glued on right before I walked down the aisle. In this moment of panic for me, Maurissa had a confidence and calm demeanor that quickly put me at ease (and those eyelashes didn’t move again the whole night). On top of everything, our wedding was also on the far East side of Michigan, and Maurissa is based in Minnesota. We are extremely thankful that her services were offered at this distance! Our Sneak Peek photos are STUNNING and we are so excited to see the rest of them when they are ready!

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Grace was a pleasure to work with during the wedding planning process. She was timely in her responses and upfront with pricing. On the day of the wedding, it felt like we were herding cats, but she remained professional and efficient. Even though we were running behind schedule with getting dressed, she managed to squeeze in a few dress shots and some first look photos. Grace remained patient even as some of our friends and family showed up late for photos! As we moved between locations, she made sure I was holding my dress in a way so that I wouldn’t fall on my face. She also helped my MOH bustle my dress after the ceremony (again, so I wouldn’t fall on my face). Grace was always cognizant of the lighting on location, and how it would affect photos. Her assistant, Joey, was lovely and accommodating as well. All in all, a wonderful experience!
