Awarded Best of Zola
Evan exceeded all expectations for our wedding photographer. He was communicative leading up to the wedding, asked for a pinterest board to get a feel for our aesthetic, and scheduled a walk-through of the venue where he shared his insight on best photo locations and times. He helped us schedule the ceremony to have the best lighting for the time of year, months in advance! This guy's a professional. Day-of he was like a ninja--we barely ever saw him, but in most of the guests' photos there he was in the background with his camera. And once the photos were delivered we knew he was everywhere, capturing us and our families and guests in the perfect moments. Thanks to Evan we have absolutely gorgeous photographs that preserved the magic of our wedding day. Cannot recommend him enough! Book him now!

Albuquerque Wedding Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,950
  • Serves Santa Cruz, NM

I photograph weddings in Albuquerque and Santa Fe with a calm, documentary approach focused on real interactions, honest emotion, and the natural flow of the day. Timeless, joyful photographs are the foundation of my work, but just as important is how the experience feels. By taking time to understand what matters to you, I work in a way that feels comfortable and unforced—so you can stay present and walk away with photographs that feel true now and meaningful years from now.

Albuquerque Wedding Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography needs. Guillermo and his team had a relaxed yet thorough and clear communication style that put us at ease throughout the entire process. Their work is truly magazine-worthy - modern and not at all posed. Guillermo was incredibly congenial with all of our 200 guests, and everyone commented on his professionalism and ability to manage our large, somewhat chaotic wedding party with ease. To top it off, he delivered our fully edited photos in just 4 days - an unbelievable turnaround time. We couldn't be happier with the memories Albuquerque Wedding Photography captured of our special day.

I photograph and film weddings across New Mexico, from the adobe chapels of Santa Fe to the sprawling desert landscapes of Albuquerque. My approach is documentary and cinematic. I focus on real moments, honest emotions, and the kind of light that makes a frame feel timeless. Every couple gets both photo and video coverage, so nothing from your day is lost.

We cannot recommend Casey enough!! He was our photographer for our engagement shoot and for our wedding. Casey has the perfect balance of being professional while still keeping things fun and light. His photos are beautiful and he has an extremely fast turn around time (we received our engagement photos that same night and wedding photos two days after the wedding). He also is very responsive and would answer our texts within the same day. Everyone we talked to after the wedding raved about how fun and fantastic Casey was. He truly captured the joy of the evening. Thank you so much, Casey!! - Kendall and Liam

At The Photography Friend, we specialize in wedding photography that feels as natural and genuine as your love story. Our approach is centered on capturing real emotions and candid moments, ensuring that every laugh, tear, and tender glance is preserved authentically. We believe in creating a relaxed environment where you can be yourselves, allowing us to document your day as it naturally unfolds.

I was nervous about spending money on wedding photos and video because everything else already felt so expensive. But let me tell you, this was worth every single second and every penny. When I saw the finished photos, I gasped. It didn’t feel staged or forced, it just felt like us. They captured every laugh, every tear, even the little side glances we gave each other when no one was looking. The video made me feel like I was watching the best movie of my life, except it was my life. My family cried, my friends cheered, and even my grandma who doesn’t like technology said it was beautiful. That meant everything to me. They didn’t just take pictures, they gave us something we can hold onto forever. I’ll never stop being thankful for that.

My name is Ali Cushing; a NY-based photographer working in a blended documentary and editorial approach, emphasized with a cinematic method, and a personalized, true to life editing style. I am honored to be entrusted with depicting genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizing precious memories. I see beauty in the subtle details as much as the wide, epic scene, while I see glory in the mundane in-between moments as much as the heart thudding highs. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the most amazing time working with Ali! We had kind of a long engagement and we initially started working with Ali over a year and a half before our wedding to get our engagement photos done. Not only were the photos beautiful, but Ali made us feel super comfortable and at ease throughout our session. Leading up to our wedding day, Ali was amazing at coordinating the day of timeline with our coordinator and making sure that all the elements that were important to us were included so that we had enough time to capture the moments. One of my favorite things about working with Ali is her calm presence. Every time I was stressed about something in the planning process about the timeline I would talk to Ali and she would immediately make me feel at ease. She was constantly reminding me that the most important thing on my wedding day was to be present with our friends and family (and as a type A bride this was a much-needed reminder!) Ali also came to take photos at our rehearsal dinner and welcome party which was great because she got to know our families and our family dynamics before our big day which was a huge help! On the wedding day Ali and the second shooter Scottie were rockstars! They went above and beyond at every opportunity from helping the boys tie a bow tie, climbing out on my fire escape to get a crazy photo that I had in mind, moving locations at last minute, dealing with rain, helping bustle my dress, and of course capturing all the beauty of our perfect day. I will not hesitate to work with Ali and her team again! She’s amazing, a true professional, and I hope we have the chance to have her capture our big milestones in the years to come.

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
From the moment we met Isaac, we knew we were in the best hands. He has an incredibly calming presence and a natural way of making you feel comfortable, which meant we were able to be fully present on our wedding day. Our Sonoma farm wedding unfolded with a gorgeous outdoor ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner reception, followed by music and festivities in the barn. Isaac captured every moment with such artistry and intention. The images feel effortless yet elevated as every frame tells a story, from quiet, emotional moments to the joy and movement of our guests celebrating into the night. The photographs from our first dance in the barn truly took our breath away. The way Isaac used the natural light, textures of the wood, and atmosphere of the space made the images feel cinematic and timeless. Working with Isaac was seamless, professional, thoughtful, and genuinely joyful. Looking through our gallery feels like reliving the day exactly as it felt. The images are beautiful, emotional, and full of life. We are endlessly grateful for his vision and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone dreaming of a wedding that feels both authentic and artfully captured.

We planned our wedding from all the way across the country (Florida to California) so we already had challenges. From the beginning, the price was great and the photos looked promising, so we decided to go for it and we are so glad we did! Turned out to be well worth it. Michael connected with us immediately, assured us he would make it happen and not to worry about a thing. We communicated over the phone and through email, he always answered every time I called, ready to listen and note my requests. The day of, the photographer Michael booked for us, Michaela Gardener drove hours to be there for our special day and even brought an assistant. She was willing to be hands on all day, treated my children like family and even stayed late to capture extra shots. Her experience shows from her work. Both the DJ and Photographer arrived early to set up and are experienced business owners. The photos are great quality and high resolution. They came out so beautiful, even with our imperfect family and little ones running around, she somehow made us look great. We are so satisfied and blown away by how the pictures turned out that every little thing that didn’t go as planned that day just melted away because the photos just perfectly captured our love and the great time our guests had. Wedding planning can be very stressful and chaotic and so I’m very glad we found someone to make this part of the wedding easy. All within our budget.

Grace is an amazing photographer! If I could give her 10 stars I absolutely would. She was amazing working with both of our crazy families and from the very beginning I knew that she’d do a great job capturing the special moments of our special day.

She also was absolutely wonderful with our 2 year old son who would’ve climbed in the car and went home with her if he could.

I had numerous family members and friends come up to me to tell me how amazing our photographer was throughout the night and in the weeks that followed. She laughed with our loved ones, she cried with our loved ones and she broke it down on the dance floor with everyone all while taking the most beautiful photos. And don't even get me started on the film! I will never run out of good things to say about Felisha. She photographed moments that we will cherish forever. She took the time to get to know us as a couple and on the day of our wedding she knew exactly how to capture all the special snippets of our day that would mean the most to look back on. We love Felisha and if we could do it again we would absolutely choose her!

Hello there! I'm Andrea, owner of Amative Creative, and every weekend we're so blessed to be able to tell the love stories of so many amazing couples. Like many others in this industry might say, we simply adore weddings. But what makes us a little different is our entire brand is centered around telling love stories specifically curated to reflect your vision and aesthetic. "Amative" means to be prone to love, so as you can see, we want nothing more than to tell your love story! But what makes us truly unique is that we understand every love story looks different. And we personalize every aspect of how we document your wedding day!
