Searching for a wedding photographer can be really overwhelming but finding Madison was the best thing that could have happen to us! She was absolutely amazing—so sweet and attentive. She took our engagement and wedding photos and we are blown away at her skills. All her photos turn out bright and beautiful, capturing every moment perfectly. My husband and I have different styles in photos but she took the time to understand our preferences and made sure to photograph everything just the way we wanted. We are very awkward in front of the camera and never know how to pose… but her instructions make it easy and seem like we are naturals. We 10000/10 recommend Madison as your wedding photographer. She’s a true gem!

A little about me: I am a Tampa Bay grown, soflo living videographer, a master's student in mental health, hold a BA in media from PBAU, and surf in my free time. I love God, people, family and friends above all.

Joel was extremely responsive from the first contact to the last. He was on time, prepared, and took over a thousand photos and promptly forwarded us the raws. We had the edits in a few more weeks -- more of them than he promised -- and they are beautiful. He did a great job composing the photos, capturing them, and post-processing them. I recommend him without reservation, he was great!

We are so happy that we went with Sound Originals! The process was extremely smooth and their online platform was so easy to use and update. Everyone on the team was transparent and helpful. We wanted to add another photographer a month before our wedding and Sound Originals made it happen. After my wedding I was able to change the editing to timeless from emerald after realizing I selected the wrong style. Our photographers were extremely professional and easy to work with and we cannot recommend this company enough!

Berkley McGaughey Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Serves Palm Beach Gardens, FL

Thanks for stopping by! My name is Berkley and I am a photographer based in South Florida.My journey to becoming a photographer has so much meaning to me. Several years ago my dad took me on a wine tasting trip to Napa Valley. I brought a camera he had given me for Christmas on the trip to California. As we were enjoying our time together, I took some photos of flowers at a winery. My dad complimented my photos from the trip and suggested that I should start a photography business. So I did! I began primarily capturing graduation portraits which led to photographing families, engagements and weddings.

WOW... it's hard to put into words how thankful we are for Berkley McGaughey Photography. The photos truly speak for themselves. They are absolutely incredible, but what makes Berkley so special goes far beyond her talent behind the camera. She genuinely cares about her couples, and it shows in every single moment she captures. From the very beginning, she made us feel so comfortable, like we had known her forever and she was part of our family. On the wedding day, she went above and beyond to make sure every single photo that mattered to us was taken, and she did it all with such warmth, kindness, and professionalism. We even had sneak peek photos back in less than a week (which was the best surprise!), she shot film photos for us, and she even put together a beautiful video. She has an incredible eye for detail and makes sure she captures everything. Her genuineness and love for what she does shine through in every image. Berkley didn’t just give us photos.... she gave us memories we’ll cherish forever. We feel so lucky and grateful to have had her as our photographer, and we cannot recommend her enough!!! We love you Berkley!

Photography to me is much more than just photo taking – it is telling your unique story and helping you to relive those special moments forever.

From start to finish Sunny was a joy to work with. Our engagement session was the perfect way to get know each other before the wedding. Our sneak peeks are a dream and SO excited to see the rest. We loved Sunny!!

At Faith Rowley Photos, we create art that captures the raw beauty of life’s fleeting moments. Through the interplay of emotion, light, and connection, we reveal the essence of your celebration—unscripted, authentic, and profoundly real. Our work is not about posed perfection, but about preserving the soul of your story, crafting timeless images that allow you to relive the magic of your day for years to come. For those who seek more than just photographs, we offer a rare opportunity to witness the beauty of truth in its purest form.

I can’t put it into words how amazing of a person and photographer Faith was for our wedding July 2024. From getting engaged, to picking a venue, and trying to find our next most important vendor (photographer) it was stressful. Once we found Faith, i was passed feeling stressed and i was feeling relieved. She understood my vision, was receptive to my opinions. Faith was available for phone calls and answered so many questions i had along the whole way. She helped me with things big and small, and the day of the wedding her magic really began. She made me, my fiancé, bridal party and family feel SO comfortable, and my fiance said “i feel like a model” because the way Faith was directing and perfecting every shot. She made it fun, and memorable and we couldn’t have imagined our day without her. She was on her feet all day, hustling and was always excited to capture that next shot and hype us up. AND THEN WE GOT THE SNEEK PEAK, and i had to pick my jaw up off the floor. I was and still am speechless at her work. She captured moments we thought we would forget one day, and now we never will. Faith is everything we could have wanted and more. Thank you Faith for all you do. Can’t wait to book you for baby showers, birthday parties and have you be apart of our life’s crazy journey!

Samantha Farmer Photo + Film

  • Classic style
  • Serves Palm Beach Gardens, FL

Samantha Farmer Photo + Film is a husband-and-wife photography and videography team based in South Florida, specializing in weddings that feel elevated, emotional, and full of life. We believe the best images come from a balance of thoughtful direction and real, unscripted moments, allowing couples to feel comfortable, confident, and fully present on their wedding day. Our style is true-to-color and story-driven, focused on preserving the energy, emotion, and details that matter most. We’re passionate about creating an experience that feels seamless and personal, so our couples can relive their day exactly as it felt, not just how it looked.

Samantha and David and their team are beyond professional. I literally mean they checked MORE boxes than the term “professional” can encapsulate. We had seen their work before and were so impressed with it that we made sure our wedding date would line up with an opening in their schedule, and we are so happy that we were able to book them. “World class” is a term I would use to more appropriately define this team of photographers and videographers. They love what they do, and it’s obvious in the outpouring of work and love that they put into each detail, as well as what they’re able to pull out of the raw photos and footage to immortalize some of the most precious moments in our lives. There is truly no comparison.

She did my husband and I’s engagement pics and they are my fav pics ever! She truly captured our love in the photos and I couldn’t be happier. Her guidance throughout the shoot was flawless and effective. Our photo shoot is one of my fav memories because we had such an amazing time. You aren’t just getting photos, you’re getting an experience and memories with your loved one that you won’t forget. My husband and I have since given mini photo shoots with her as gifts to our couple-friends for holidays. My best friend got engaged recently and I am MOH helping w planning.

Hi, I’m Katherine, a wedding photographer documenting weddings in a natural and honest way. My work is a balance of candid moments and gently guided portraits, with a strong focus on real emotions, connection, and the details of your day. For me, wedding photography is not only about beautiful images. It’s about memory — how the day felt, the emotions you lived through, and what this moment truly meant to you. A wedding day is not just a timeline, but a lived experience — the moment when two people become a family.

We had the absolute best experience with Katherine. From the very first moment, she made us feel so comfortable and relaxed, which is not easy on such an emotional and busy day. She has an incredible ability to capture genuine moments, real smiles, and all the little details that made our wedding special. Nothing felt forced or staged – everything was natural and full of life. When we received our photos, we were truly blown away. They were romantic and elegant. Looking at them feels like reliving every beautiful moment again. We are so grateful for preserving our memories in such a magical way and would highly recommend her to any couple looking for a photographer who truly cares and delivers stunning results. Thank you!

From our very first interaction, it felt like chatting with a friend - their communication style was warm, personable, and made us feel at ease. Their work is truly professional, with an eye for detail that captured all the candid, original moments that made our day so special. For example, the photographer literally brought me my wedding dress that I had forgotten at our Airbnb - talk about going above and beyond!

WOW. Where do I begin? So I booked a photographer for our elopement who ended up GHOSTING US and blocking me on everything… I made a post PRAYING for a miracle a week before our elopement and Linney was available, ready and willing to make sure all my dreams came true. We changed plans THE MORNING OF, to a different beach and she rolled with the punches like a trooper. I also ended up being late due to hair and makeup (like 30 mins late) and she was still there, on time, smiling and ready! She also brought her assistant who was also amazing and perfect. She made sure I got every single photo my heart desired and then some. She was so fun and personable and had the biggest, sweetest smile the entire time. Linney legit saved my wedding day disaster and got me the precious memories I will cherish for a lifetime. I truly cannot say enough good things about her. She’s AMAZING and will literally jump through hurdles to make your big day the best day ever. She traveled an HOUR to photograph my wedding AT SUNRISE and then WENT TO WORK AFTER!! BOOK HER FOR ALL YOUR MILESTONES!!! You WILL NOT regret it I promise!!!
