Alex & Jeremy were the BEST. I cannot believe the number of compliments I received from friends and family who were at the wedding. They were the most professional and interacted with our guests all night long. During the day, we moved through our timeline so smoothly but never felt rushed in my special moments with my husband. We laughed, we cried, we danced- every moment was captured by them and we are so thankful! I was hoping that the weather would cooperate for some golden hour portraits- not only did Jeremy get the most BEAUTIFUL golden hour photos but he grabbed us just as the sun came peaking out of the clouds and got a few photos of us with my veil in the wind. I am OBSESSED with both sets of these portraits. I’ve already recommended OLAS to friends and family who are getting married. They were the best vendor I could have asked for to capture our special day!

I feel so lucky to have found these amazing people! Heather and her incredible team feel like family to us, even though we only met a few months ago. They really care about their clients and want them to have the best photos possible. During the wedding, Heather would always make sure I was comfortable by giving me flattering poses and pointing her portable fan at me when I was too hot from dancing at the reception, ha! She stayed in communication with me, the other vendors, and her own team flawlessly, so I didn't have to worry about a thing. Not only was everything organized and efficient, but it was also fun! Our whole wedding party had a great time making jokes and messing around with the photographers, and seeing them have fun made the whole vibe a lot better. They hyped us up in every pose and made the day nothing but positive. I would highly recommend Heather and her team to anyone who wants a photographer who cares about them! I felt like a million bucks on my wedding day, and I have to say it is mainly because of these incredible photographers. Finally, the results speak for themselves! The pictures we received literally look like they're out of a movie. Their talent is unmatched and should be talked about more. The feelings and emotions of our special day were captured in such a natural and beautiful way. I am so grateful to have these pictures for life, and I can't wait to show my kids one day. I will never be able to forget what it felt like, thanks to these incredible people with unreal talent. I also cannot believe how easy it was to book her and for such a reasonable price! Booking Heather and her team was truly the best decision we could have made. I recommend them to anyone from all walks of life. You will be welcomed and taken care of like a friend or even family!

The result is beautiful, sentimental photos that preserve meaningful and true-to-life moments.

I believe that photography should be more than just a following social media trends or taking a quick photo for your profile picture. Photography to me is an artform and something close to magic. My goal with every couple is to create photos that act like a portal back in time to that moment. I want to capture your day so timelessly and authentically that you can feel the way your partner looked at you, feel the chills that you got from the words spoken to each other during your vows, and get those excited goosebumps all over again.

When looking into a photographer for my engagement photos I was so nervous due to lack of exposure being in front of a camera. Both my fiancée and I had an AMAZINGLY comfortable time with Stephanie. Not only did she listen to EXACTLY what we wanted, she found an amazing venue for us to capture them. We spent one of the hottest days frolicking around KC’s botanical gardens capturing some nature shots. Stephanie guided us through all of the photos and posing effortlessly, making sure to capture all the shots we wanted. She was even amazing with keeping all of our personal items together while we posed. I HIGHLY recommend choosing this company for any photo needs. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed!!

I’m Nikki. A Florida-based wedding photographer documenting the wild, sacred, beautifully imperfect parts of getting married. My approach is documentary, nostalgic, and a little bit undone. I’m there for the moments you didn’t plan for: your dad trying not to cry, your friends losing their minds on the dance floor, the quiet five minutes alone together, the weird little in-between moments you won’t realize mattered until years later.

Nikki was my college senior picture photographer. I wanted to do 3 very different photo shoots, as well as incorporate my college friends and my dog. Nikki was able to execute my vision perfectly!!! She knew the perfect locations and captured the vibe I was going for in each session perfectly. I am very detailed oriented and she made sure to capture all the small personal details I wanted included as well. These are my favorite pictures I’ve ever had taken. She was so encouraging and made me feel extremely comfortable behind the camera. Whether you are wanting something more traditional or something completely unique, Nikki will execute it beautifully!!

I am a photographer and artist from the Pacific Northwest with Costa Rican and Scottish roots. My favorite things are dinosaurs, exploring new cities, board games, soccer, National Parks, and whiskey. I have been fortunate to photograph 200+ weddings in my PNW home, to ruins in Scotland, cityscapes in Vietnam, to the beaches of Maui, and beyond! I live in Portland, Oregon with my two dogs and three cats | 🏳️‍🌈🦖⛰️✈️📸⚽🫶🏼🌈🌲🦕🏝 Fun Fact: I was born on Leap Year Day so I'm 9 years old 🥳!

Working with Leah was such a wonderful experience! She manages to walk that line between laid back and completely professional so well that I was instantly comfortable working with her. She immediately understood our vision and delivered beautifully. She was communicative and on the ball with dates/times/contracts & very responsive to any questions. Day of she did a great job directing my husband and I, helping us feel comfortable in front of the camera even though that is very much not our comfort zone. The photos are gorgeous and I can’t get over how well they turned out. Thank you Leah!!

Get To Know Me: I'm a destination wedding & elopement photographer based in Arizona, but I travel globally! I've been doing photos for 8 years now and I'm in LOVE with it! When I'm not doing photos I'm singing/karaoking, going on hikes/nature walks, playing board games with the fam, watching movies/binging shows, listening to music, and doing anything outdoors! I'm also a total foodie, avid reader, and love animals. Fun Fact: My favorite weddings to do are outdoorsy, nature filled, boho, romantic, modern, elegant, or adventurous weddings! Also, heads up I will fangirl with you over your dress!

Working with Adriana was SUCH a blessing to our whole planning experience! From the start, she was so genuinely friendly & easy to work with! We were planning a wedding out of state and being local to the area that we got married, Adriana went above and beyond to help us! She even knew the venue we were renting and helped me understand what to expect so I could plan with ease! Adriana was always available to schedule a call with & was so patient with my communication through a busy summer! She was even willing to book last minute bridals following our wedding weekend to make our dreams come true of capturing the Teton scenery (not to mention, her immaculate vibes during the shoot!). On top of being the kindest person, she is so talented & captured every emotion from our wedding day in ways we couldn’t have imagined. We are so grateful for Adriana’s talent and kindness and absolutely recommend her to everyone!! Having a small and intimate wedding, Adriana truly felt like a friend celebrating with us! She is just the best!

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!
