Kyra and her team are nothing short of amazing. She was always quick responding to emails, providing timelines, and very thorough and detail oriented. She was amazing at making sure to get all the photos we wanted done and we loved the poses she has us do. All of the photos we got back were gorgeous and genuine. Throughout the process Kyra felt more like a friend than a vendor, she was always there to offer a helping hand, provide advice and just radiated positive energy. 15/10 would recommend to everyone!

We are photographers for hire with a love for candid moments and a modern, fine art aesthetic. Evan is your point person and lead photographer. He has been shooting weddings, portraits, and brand work for over 6 years. Gabrielle’s background lies in visual arts and theatre, and comes well into play during creative decision making. Her attention to detail and eye for beauty is unmatched. We look forward to partnering with you to create and capture, whatever the story.

As a wedding planner of 15 years, I don’t review fellow vendors without 100% confidence. I without a doubt have that in Evan Taylor and his team from my clients initial contact through the many logistical transitions on wedding day, Evan’s professionalism and communication excelled beyond any expectations (and I’m pretty particular). It didn’t stop there. A couple of weeks later, Evan delivered the most beautiful gallery from our couples wedding day. No detail, or expression missed. Truly awe-inspiring at every capture. I highly recommend Evan Taylor and look forward to referring him to my future couples.

Corpus Christi, TX
  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Rensselaer, NY for additional fees

Photography truly has a full grip on my soul– I love EVERYTHING about capturing special moments to be forever held in time! I consider my style to be way more candid, as I truly adore capturing an authentic experience that is almost tangible to the person viewing the photo. I want the viewer to feel the emotion and as if they were there with us right back in that moment. I love realness of a perfect candid shot…my goal—especially with couples—is to get to the heart of their connection and connect with my couples, as well, to truly make them feel comfortable in front of the lens so that we can get to those authentic magic shots!

Working with Shannon was truly amazing. Before I even booked her, she took ample time to respond to my emails and answer all my questions. After booking, she provided very clear expectations in her contract, which made it so easy to work with her! Her prices were more than fair for the quality of photos and work that she did for us. Shannon responded to text messages and emails, and her client portal was so professional and easy to use. Shannon took the time to figure out what type of shots we wanted, and made sure we got them all on our wedding day. Shannon was very professional, and honestly working with her felt like working with someone you've known a very long time, like an old friend. I cannot recommend her enough!

Tiffany was so easy to work with. I know a lot of people say that when giving reviews but it couldn't be more true! Tiffany wanted to know every-way she could help. She helped us find our cake baker who I am still ordering cupcakes from, She helped us find an epic videographer, and she helped us create/finalize our timeline and kept everything in order the day of our wedding. Tiffany made wedding planning 100% stress free and we can not wait to book her again for big events or little sentimental shoots.

Norton, MA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Rensselaer, NY for additional fees

Kelsey Sheehan Photography was founded in 2019. I made the jump into being a professional photographer to follow my heart and work in a career path that I love! When I am not working you can find me baking with country or 90s/00s R&B blasting, sitting by the fire with my neighbors, doing yoga, kickboxing, jiu jitsu, or hiking with my family. Okay, and maybe binge watching Schitt's Creek, Gilmore Girls, or Grey's Anatomy for the hundredth time.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kelsey is one of a kind! We were a bit nervous about the engagement photoshoot and many things went wrong that day, but she managed to calm us down and put us in a right mood! She was there for us and made us enjoy the photoshoot so much. We had a blast! And then when we saw the pictures I almost cried-she captured such genuine moments. She is highly professional, friendly, accommodating, and just a fun person to be around. We loved our photoshoot so much that we ended up booking a wedding with her too! We highly recommend her services!

Hi! I'm Chrissy. I've been lucky enough to photograph weddings and meet tons of awesome couples since 2014. I'm based in Boston, MA but I'm always more than happy to travel anywhere your adventure takes you. My work has brought me as far as Tokyo and I'm so ready to explore more new places! In my down time I love to surf, paint, go to concerts, and watch horror movies. I'm full of useless astrology facts and I always have extra snacks with me.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I are so lucky that we found Chrissy as our photographer. We wanted someone who would bring a unique approach to taking photos and be able to capture special moments that would happen during our wedding, both big and small. Chrissy checks the boxes for both. Not only is she extremely talented, but she also has an amazing eye for detail. She is also very easy to work with, and makes us both feel comfortable to be ourselves. I will admit I was a little nervous before our engagement photoshoot, but after meeting Chrissy, I immediately felt at ease and had so much fun. She also photographed our revised "micro-wedding" in our backyard last October, and was very flexible and accommodating in changing plans. We're looking forward to having her capture our bigger wedding once this pandemic is over, because we know the quality she delivers every time and she is just such a pleasure to work with. We can't recommend her enough!

Agawam, MA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Rensselaer, NY for additional fees

Hi, my name is Juan, AKA Jay, I am a Western Massachusetts based photographer. I first began my interest in photography in grade school. While my teacher would conduct the class I would be interested in the images so I could make more of a connection. I was also dubbed the "family photographer" whenever there was a family function. I am more of a non-traditional photographer, meaning, I enjoy control candid photos vs traditional posing photos.

Working with Pix by Jay was an absolute blast. As a DJ it is nice to work with professionals that "get it." We did not have to spend any time at all letting them know when and where to be. Jay was right on the money every time the client needed them. I look forward to working with him again!!!

Hi, my name is Ryan, thanks for checking out my work! I am very passionate about photography and I am extremely fortunate to make a living doing it! I’ve held a camera in my hands almost all my life, but I’ve been a professional NJ wedding photographer since 2005. Getting married? I’d love to be a part of your day! After capturing hundreds of weddings in the NJ area, there are very few venues that I’m not familiar with, chances are I’ve been to yours multiple times! I’m also available for engagement shoots, portraits, head shots, and family photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with Ryan. He was wonderful and he made us look amazing. He really knows photography and his love for the craft shows. We had an engagement shoot and our wedding photos with him. He is so much fun to work with. We were nervous for our engagement shoot and he showed us how to pose, how to stand, chose really great spots, and the hours just flew by. Then when we got the pictures back, we knew we made the right choice. I didn’t think I could look so beautiful. My husband loved his composition, creativity, and professionalism. For the wedding, Ryan was fun to work with, flexible, and made us both look like a prince and princess. We asked him to do 2 nerdy photos for us (sailor moon for the bride and bridesmaids and Green Lantern Core for the groom and groomsmen) and they turned out AMAZING. We’re now having trouble choosing which photos to frame because they all looked great. If you need an amazing wedding photographer with a fun, professional personality, and who will make sure you turn out great in every shot, and knows how to throw in a little extra something magical, go with Ryan. I hope we can work with him again.

Cassie made everything so easy. She stayed in communication leading up to the wedding. She texted to let me know she was ready for the first look. She positioned us to get the best pictures, directed us when we didn't know what to do, suggested locations for pictures, and was a joy to work with. The pictures included black and white, color, and live pictures. We just had our favorites blown up and framed.

QH CONCEPT is a photography and videography service in the Boston and New England area, our mission is to make your memories last forever. With us, your experience will be stress-free, allowing you to fully enjoy your special day. We understand that everyone has their own unique style preferences, which is why our talented photographers and videographers offer a wide range of options. Whether you prefer a natural style with minimal flash, a glamorous look with off-camera flash, or a vintage vibe with direct flash, we can cater to your needs. You name it, and we'll bring it to life.

Awarded Best of Zola
The QH team is a professional and compassionate couple who want to bring joy to their clients through scheduled and compassionate sessions. They will get to know you and your family, a sense of what you would like the session to be, find the perfect setting, and the rest is just magic. Whether you want a family session like we did, wedding photos, professional headshots (which we also got), or a photographer for an event - QH will bring their "A Game" wherever there is a skilled photographer needed. They are able to deal with adults who can't be photogenic (like us), kids, pets, and most likely unruly adults. Their methods are top notch and you never feel like you are being bossed around during the session, more like a collaboration between the pros and the subjects. We got a more than adequate session for the price, and the location was picked based on what we were looking for but at the suggestion of the coordinator. We met in Boston Common and traversed most of the common and gardens with our dog, 90 minutes in total. The team was energetic, focused, and very professional with how we grouped shots and areas so we didn't have to go back or waste any time. It was one of the most efficient shoots I've done, which between weddings, family sessions, etc. I probably have 2 dozen sessions under my belt (the quality of the photos due to the subject are questionable at best :P). We had a list of shots that we wanted to do, but the real value added by the team were the suggestions and shots that have worked with them in the past in these familiar locations. The turnaround time on the photos can vary depending on how many edits you would like, but the team is constantly in touch and giving updates on the estimated delivery of your photos. Ours was a little over 2 weeks, but we were not in a rush and the wait was well worth it. Pricing is competitive and beyond reasonable for what you get. We paid a flat rate that was 25% of another quote we got, and I will be honest - I was worried about the differences in quality because of the significant difference. Those worries were put to bed as soon as we had the session and received the "sneak preview" through Google Drive (their storage and delivery method). As you can see in the attached pictures, we are beyond thrilled with the results. I couldn't have asked for a better experience, team, or price than what QH brought to the table. They are now my go-to recommendation for photographers and we plan to use them again and again in the coming years. I can't recommend them enough between the overall process (initial contact, quote, session planning, location selection, session, sneak preview, and final delivery), the skill of the team, and the value proposition. They may just be growing their business right now, but I've worked with lifelong photographers who don't have as good of a process or product as QH. Highly recommend - 5 stars, 11/10, A

Corrina was a fly on the wall that day and I am blown away by the sneak peeks I have seen! She really captured the essence of the day and is super easy-going and brings a good vibe to the wedding day.

I photograph love because I believe in it. I don’t believe in it in the way that a little girl believes in ferries or unicorns, a hopeful “I think it is real” kind of a belief, I believe in its power. I believe that love is the most important emotion we will feel in this lifetime and I believe it has the greatest ability for good. I believe that each human on this earth should have the opportunity to feel deeply loved and to love another deeply themselves. I believe that love is something that should be treasured, cared for, and celebrated.

My husband and I loved working with Allison she understood our vision and had the best personality. She was organized and helped us to prepare for the day with a plan of the photos we wanted. She definitely understood our vision and captured amazing photos of us in all the places we wanted.

I've always been a creative at heart, my own mother is an artist so maybe it's genetic? However, photography was never on my radar. One fateful day, a friend reached out to me requesting engagement photos for her and her love. My iPhone and I were absolutely honored at the opportunity! After the debut of those beautiful, phone quality captures, the inquiries came rolling in! I was pleasantly surprised and within months decided it was only right to invest in proper gear. Officially established in 2021, I've been beyond blessed with the chance to meet so many wonderful people and capture their once in a lifetime moments! Anya Grace 🖤

Anya is a highly talented photographer. I struggle with following simple directions, which may be due to the language barrier as English is not my native language. However, Anya was extremely patient with me. I hired her twice for my wedding and graduation pictures, but I actually worked with her three times, including engagement photos, the wedding, and the graduation shoot. She made me feel like a celebrity in all the pictures. I highly recommend her to everyone.

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
Chris was great to work with start to finish! He did our engagement photos and then our wedding photos. My husband is not one who likes to smile normally for pictures, but Chris was able to always keep the mood fun and got smiles out of him! He communicated all information in a timely fashion and was always available when I had a question. He worked with my venue and the DJ to ensure all aspects of the wedding day were covered. The pictures turned out great and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture our special day! Highly recommend!

My style of photography is a mix of journalistic for most of the day and classic/fashion for the portrait session. When looking back on your wedding day we want you to relive those special moments through photographs, the happiness, love and fun had with family and friends.

Awarded Best of Zola
The complete package! From the moment we started to work with Al and his team we knew we were in good hands. He started with a questionnaire that asked questions we didn't even think of as far as photography was concerned. On the day of our wedding he was right there for all of the important shots, but also out of the way so he was not intruding on the moments. When the photos were presented we had the hardest time deciding what to keep for the album since ALL of the photos were truly amazing! The album is something we will treasure forever. In addition to the album we received a memory stick with all of the photos, two small albums, and thank you cards.

Plus our reception venue was pretty dark and had weird lighting so a lot of our guests photos didn't turn out, so it was a real gift to have Josie's incredible photos at the reception.

Hiring a Wedding Photographer is tough—I get it. You need someone who is experienced and professional enough to handle any situation. This could be a sudden downpour on your wedding day or seamlessly diffusing tense moments between separated parents during family portraits. Most importantly, they do this with grace, oftentimes without you even noticing. More importantly than the behind the scenes things, a great Wedding Photographer will handle the grandparents with charm and class, and be a little goofy with the kids to create timeless and authentic portraits of your most cherished people.

Having Chris do our wedding was literally fate. We found out two days before the wedding that the photographer we booked would not be available due to a family emergency. Luckily, he connected us with Chris, who immediately did a call with us the next morning (the day before our wedding). Chris had been given our engagement photos, so he had a sense for our style, and he walked us through the day and the information he needed. Most importantly to us was to have our photographer take charge, and keep our families on task, while paying attention to the details so we didn't have to. To say that Chris did that would be an understatement. He arrived at the hotel even earlier than we asked, and immediately brought positive energy into the space. Once we moved to the venue, he efficiently directed our very lively friends and family through all of the poses and photos we wanted without us needing to say a word. My wife and I were truly able to just enjoy the day, knowing we'd get everything we asked for. Chris edits all of his photos individually by hand so that we got only the best, and he truly captured the New England fall essence. Chris gets our highest recommendation and we feel so lucky that we got to work with him!

I started my journey as a portrait & fashion photographer, primarily in London, England working with modeling agencies before moving to America with my husband 6 years ago. I would describe my style as modern, moody, and timeless. More so after raising my two boys, I began changing my photography direction toward couples & their unique love stories. I strive to capture each raw moment that truly captures this memorable day for you both. With an editorial background from the likes of Vogue, I also incorporate romantic poses that truly make each couple shine. This guarantees beautiful imagery to look back on for years to come.

Heather was incredible. She was professional, meticulous, and was extremely easy to work with. She sent us a mood board with colors and tones we love, and we felt totally prepared for pics. With kids, photos can always be stressful. Heather brought a speaker with songs and the kids had such a great time. She took her time with poses and let the kids run and play and got amazing candid shots of us. We were thrilled with the final shots and we absolutely would recommend her to friends and family!!

I cannot even begin to describe how amazing it was to work with Jacqueline for our wedding this past weekend. She was extremely easy-going, communicative, professional, and always quick to respond for the entire year leading up to our wedding. So it came as no surprise that on our wedding day she absolutely crushed it. She captured our day so seamlessly. She was never in the way, never made us uncomfortable and just blended into the background in all the right ways. She made the wedding party and family photos process quick and painless which I know from experience can sometimes prove to be a disaster or just unorganized and chaotic at weddings. I was even MORE blown away when she delivered some photos the morning after our wedding after probably being up super late after getting home from our wedding. Talk about going above and beyond and exceeding expectations!!! I could not have asked for a better photographer to play such a huge part in our big day and I would recommend Jacqueline to ANYONE.

She came with all of the right equipment and gear to get the best quality photos as our outdoor gardens wedding progressed from afternoon, sunset, to night lighting. She also worked quickly and efficiently to get all of the shots we wanted in a short time - she even photographed our venue, wedding rings, and garments in tasteful ways without us having to put any thought or stress into it. She really listened to our preferences and made us feel comfortable while taking photos that might otherwise feel awkward to pose for. She also had a great talent for candid photos and capturing the fun of the night with all of the guests. Her editing was very natural and completely matched the style that we were hoping for.

Awarded Best of Zola
Ish was such an amazing photographer; professional, warm & friendly, and most of all, flexible and adaptable to any and all changes or hiccups. We didn't have any the day of, but he was always willing to work with whatever we gave him, which is so rare in photographers nowadays. So often they have an almost overly-assertive attitude, but Ish knew just how to balance getting the best shots with giving us freedom to ask for pictures we personally wanted. His prices were very reasonable for the market, and his wife Maya was such a sweet support during the whole day. Ish's photos were professional, consistent, and absolutely beautiful, and he has a great sense for the mood of the wedding. I have seen him do darker, moody pictures to our own lighter, brighter ones. I would recommend Ish & Maya Photo and Events to anyone and everyone who asks!!

I love mexican food, cats (and dogs!), and iced coffee. Books are my best friends, and I also double as a yoga teacher when I'm not doing photography related things. I have a weird obsession with fuzzy socks and I prefer movies over TV shows. Now on to the typical things you want to know about my journey in photography...I got my first camera in 2009 and basically haven't put it down since! I studied photography at Savannah College of Art and Design and started my freelance photography career when I graduated in 2016!

If I had to describe Cayleigh in one word, it would be fantastic! When I was look for a photographer I really wanted someone who would mesh well with my husband as he is not very photogenic, or should I say camera shy. Cayleigh worked very well with him and got him to come out of his shell! We did and Engagement shoot, 10 hours for our wedding, and will be doing some maternity photos here in a couple months as well! If you are looking for someone who is friendly, and gets creative with any type of person she is your girl!

I’m Erika and I am a self-taught photographer, hiker enthusiast, travel lover and proud dog mama! I started my photography journey at 18 years old. I always loved art, but I never thought this newfound love would lead me down an exciting path where I get to do what I love for a living. Thanks to the trust that my clients put in me, I get to do what I do best — and that’s create.

Erika is wonderful! We are both shy and she made us feel comfortable the entire time, she has the craziest most creative ideas for her pictures and she doesn’t care if she has to go in the woods to get the perfect shot. We highly recommend Light Sky Photography and we will definitely hire Erika again ❤️ Like

You know those first few months that you fall in love & everything is so wonderful & terrifying & just so damn GOOD? It's that “new love” feeling & I’ve never been able to replicate that feeling with anything else, except photography. Your wedding day tells the story of your love. From that “new love” to the more comfortable kind, it is the culmination of all those moments leading up to “I do.” I consider myself the narrator of that day, telling that story and documenting your connection through my photographs.

Jenny Lebron is MA-GI-CAL!! She did our engagement photographs and they looked like something straight out of a magazine. My fiancé and I are a bit camera shy but she made us feel SUPER comfortable taking such intimate pictures. She was happy to direct the shoot when necessary but also encouraged us to share and try our own creative ideas to make the pictures super personal. She is such a kind person and I couldn't think of a more perfect photographer for us. I would (and do) recommend her to anyone who is looking their wedding photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

My all-time favorite thing is to sit by the fire with a glass of good cabernet or watch the ocean waves hit the beach. I love to garden and to build things (but I let my husband to finish all my projects LOL). I enjoy good food and will likely refer to a stand up comedy routine at least once in a conversation. I am also a football mom, lacrosse mom and basketball mom. Wife to a very understanding husband and emotional support person for my big puppies.

If you're on the hunt for a wedding photographer who not only captures every intricate detail but also brings a sense of ease and joy to your special day, look no further than Silvia Gilbert Photography. From the moment we met her, we knew she was the perfect fit for our wedding, and boy, did she exceed our expectations! Silvia] has an unparalleled knack for capturing the essence of each moment, from the stolen glances between the newlyweds to the delicate lace on the bride's gown. Her attention to detail is simply remarkable; every shot she takes feels like a work of art, meticulously composed and brimming with emotion. But what truly sets Silvia apart is her easy-going personality. Despite the inevitable chaos of a wedding day, she remained calm, cool, and collected, effortlessly putting us at ease and allowing us to fully enjoy the festivities. Her warm demeanor and infectious enthusiasm made the entire experience feel like a breeze, and her presence felt more like that of a dear friend rather than a hired vendor. Not only did Silvia capture all the big moments beautifully, but she also had a remarkable ability to capture the small, fleeting moments that we may have otherwise missed. Looking through our wedding album, we were transported back to that magical day, reliving every laugh, tear, and heartfelt exchange. In short, Silvia Gilbert Photography is a true gem in the world of wedding photography. If you want stunning photos and a stress-free experience, entrust her with your special day—you won't be disappointed.

Booking Rachel Stenger was one of the best vendor decisions that my husband and I made for our wedding day. Even from the first meeting we had with Rachel, she has such a calming and warm presence which we knew was what we would need the day of. She has such a unique way of photographing and capturing moments that make her so special and unlike a lot of other wedding photographers we met with. We did an engagement session with her and she made us feel so at ease, like most couples we're not naturally in front of the camera but she was able to easily talk us through poses throughout the session. We had a call the month of to discuss details with her - e.i, timeline, shot list, etc. This was a great call because it helped all of us get on the same page for day of. Forwarding to the wedding day - Rachel arrived early to start on capturing details. She helped us stay on-time during getting ready and first look since my DoC was at the venue setting up. She was able to capture SO many images throughout the day from getting ready all the way to the dance floor. Aside from the staged/traditional photos you'd expect from the wedding, she captured so many beautiful candid moments. She moved in SILENCE, I truly didn't see her for most of the day (in a good way!) yet we ended up with 750 images in the 7 hrs we hired her for. She captured everything and more. When we finally got the full album - my husband and I spent had an amazing 2 hours reliving every single moment! She blew us away and we were not prepared by how beautifully she captured the day - all of the details, the emotions, and the aesthetics, were EVERYTHING! Her talent is remarkable and we couldn't have asked for anything more. I'd recommend her to anyone - in fact, I already have a friend that's hired her for their day.

Photography was a hobby but when my friend found her self with no photographer days before her wedding, she asked if I could shoot her day and from the first wedding I was hooked! 11 years later and I think I have the best job on the planet. I have been married to the love of my life Jordan for 6 years now and she is the extra magic in Swiger Photography. We have a lil rescue pup named Furgie and spend our free time trying new bourbons and exploring Philadelphia!

I have known Amanda both professionally and personally for several years, and when the time came to choose my own wedding photographer, there was no question that she was it. She is incredibly professional, personable, and has a way to bring the light out of every person who stands in front of her camera. She works with such ease and confidence that there was not a single moment that I felt stressed during our day, because I knew our moments were being captured. Leading up to the wedding, Amanda made sure that she really understood our vision for our day, and absolutely delivered! If you are looking for a photographer that can make even the most shy family member absolutely shine, who brings laughter and joy to your wedding, and who will unequivocally give her all to capturing your precious moments, you would be remiss not to hire Swiger Photography!

I’m a Sunshine State native, a Pisces, and a lover of the outdoors. Photography is my favorite way to connect with people. The ability to freeze a memory to look back on for years at a time is what kept me wanting more. I am forever in awe that taking photos allows me to create art, while also giving people stories to reflect on down the line.

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely love Sufia! Not only are her work and editing skills 100/10, she made our wedding photos feel great and fun to take. We both felt like we were just hanging out and enjoying each others company during shoot time. Just from the sneak peeks, we love how the photos turned out!

I am an internationally recognized award-winning fine art portrait photographer. My goal is to guide couples into poses where they will transform from an everyday couple into one that would be seen on the cover of any luxury wedding magazine. The one thing I treasure most is my wedding album. I've been married for 18 years and it is my most treasured item. Our wedding was small, intimate, and filled with love and family. We had one photographer and beautiful flowers, during our winter ceremony. We planned a lot of the details ourselves. Innately, that's what I loved about my wedding, and is what I want to capture in yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
Love working with Joanna Booth Weddings on wedding day! She is easy to work with and a breath of fresh air! I would highly recommend her as your photographer on wedding day! You won't be disappointed.

There are three words that describe my style: Modern, Elegant, and Vibrant. My end goal is to create the most artistic and beautiful photographs for my couples while keeping the experience fun and not interrupt the timeline of the wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Amazing is the first word that comes to our minds when we think of Daniel! Within an hour after we contacted him online he reached out to us to collaborate about our wedding. Throughout the entire process, Daniel listened to our vision while incorporating his own flair. The finish products received were that of a fairy tale wedding. From the original planning, to the calls, to the engagement shoot, to the engagement album, to the lead up to the wedding, during the wedding, and after he was extremely easy to work alongside. During the wedding, we were not “bothered” by him and we barely knew he was there. He captured moments during the day that we couldn't even dream about. When we received the proofs we couldn’t imagine all the angles he, and his second photographer, Ryan, were able to capture. Daniel offers the highest quality product, amazing vision, and results that are out of this world. Daniel offers such extraordinary professionalism in his art that it left us speechless. There aren’t enough stars to give Daniel a true rating. Above and beyond, unprecedented results, and a lifetime of memories. Haley and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!

Mario Oliveto Photography is genuine and heavily focused on real emotions, always believing that everyone has a story. Our photography makes you feel as if you were connected with those in front of the camera. Wedding photography is capturing real, raw, emotions, in the most beautiful fine art style.

If you want to look like you belong in a magazine, book Mario! He’s as pleasant and easygoing to work with as he is talented. I’m already trying to think of other reasons to book him post wedding.

There are many things I can say about Michaela and 3leafphotography but the most important is how comfortable you can be around her. She is such a kind soul and she will give you the best pictures. She’s a photo wizard and I wouldn’t have anyone else do my pictures. She knows her stuff. If you are looking for someone you can instantly connect with and feel your absolute best, you can trust her to give you that.

I began, 2017; ‘Editorial Fashion’ working with modeling agencies. Then doing my 1st wedding by request in Taiwan for a Luxury Editorial style wedding. I completely fell in love with wedding imagery and the process that all goes into the experience. From there ‘I’ became ‘we’ as my team grew. Having refined our Luxury Editorial Image over the years!

Britney was so easy to work with and had a great plan for getting pictures during the moment of the surprise proposal. She gave us ALL of the raw photos (600 for us) in addition to her edits. We have so many good photos, highly recommend!
