  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Santa Cruz, NM

I'm an award winning photojournalist by trade who's been shooting weddings in my spare time for the last decade. I'll bring a calm and steadying presence to your wedding day, making sure your day goes smoothly and letting you focus on celebrating your partnership with those you love most. I'm based in Santa Fe but happy to travel wherever you need me to. If my packages don't exactly fit your needs, reach out and we can make something custom just for you.

It was wonderful to have Evan as a part of our wedding day. He was warm and respectful with everyone, gently engaging them to get the best images. We appreciate his eye for the moments that become the memories of the day, not just the well-executed portraits. If we’re lucky, he’ll be available when our children get married too!

Dear Lizzie, We can’t thank you enough for the amazing work you did at our wedding. Each photograph is like a piece of art; you didn’t just capture the moments, but also the emotions and the magic of the day. Every time we look at the photos, it feels like we’re reliving those moments all over again. This is truly invaluable to us. Your kindness and thoughtfulness made our wedding even more special. You weren’t just a photographer, but someone who shared in the most important moments of our day. Your interactions with our guests, your warmth, and your professionalism deeply impressed us. It felt like having an old friend with us, which put us at ease. Seeing how perfectly this job suits you made us realize once again that we chose the right person to work with. Photography is a profession that witnesses the most special moments in people’s lives, and it’s incredible how well you fit into this role. Working with you was such a joy, and we savored every moment of it. We want to thank you once more, and we truly congratulate you for your dedication and sincerity.

Working with Heather & Andrew was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the moment they arrived, they brought such a calm, encouraging energy that instantly made us feel comfortable. They captured every detail, every emotion, and every moment we didn’t even realize we’d want to remember. Our photos are absolutely breathtaking!!! They somehow managed to be everywhere at once without ever feeling intrusive. The candid shots, the portraits, the tiny in-between moments… all of it feels like a perfect retelling of our day. We will genuinely treasure these photos forever. If you’re looking for someone who is talented, professional, kind, and truly invested in your vision, definitely go with Heather & Andrew! We booked photographers and got magicians!!! I didn’t know we could look that good! Not only did we get amazing photos, we got new friends! They’re the best. Absolutely 11/10 recommend!!!

Debra Aslanidis Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Santa Cruz, NM
  • Offer

We specialize in documentary-style micro weddings and elopements, which means we focus on capturing your day as it naturally unfolds. Instead of staging or posing moments, we observe and photograph the real, unscripted emotions, connections, and intimate details that make your celebration unique. Our goal is to tell your love story authentically, preserving the genuine moments that reflect the true essence of your special day.

My husband and I were beyond impressed with our entire experience with Debra Aslanidis Photography. From start to finish Debra made my experience as a bride so smooth and stress-free. Wedding planning can be a stressful process, but Debra provided excellent communication about what to expect leading up to the wedding and the day of, so we felt very at ease the entire time. When I ran into an unrelated issue (a problem with another vendor), Debra reached out and sent me recommendations and offered support while I dealt with the situation. It was unbelievably kind and not at all expected, but it really made me feel cared for and I appreciated Debra going above and beyond for me! On the day of our wedding, Debra and her partner Jeremy were absolutely phenomenal. For one, they worked so perfectly together. We had guests complimenting how well they worked and coordinated together! I seriously can’t thank them enough for not only being amazing photographers, but also helping with other tasks that they voluntarily did. I seriously felt like they assumed the role of our wedding coordinators at times, since we didn’t have one, by providing suggestions and opinions since they’re the experienced ones when it comes to weddings! I couldn’t be more thankful for their confidence and comfortability in doing so! Finally, I am seriously blown away by the fact that we got our photos about a month after our wedding day! Debra has worked weddings, engagement shoots, and other photoshoots every single weekend and has a family, yet still managed to bust her butt to finish our photos, and it was the best surprise to get our photos back right before celebrating one month of marriage. I am so in love with our photos and have looked at them every single day, multiple times a day, since getting them back. Photos are the one thing you keep from your wedding day (besides your memories!), and I am absolutely in love with the final photos! The editing is beautiful, and I’m so happy we prioritized finding a photographer who emphasizes the behind-the-scenes and candid moments. I love that our pictures are 100% in the moment and capture the real, raw emotions of everyone! There were several detailed shots of our venue and decor and I love those just as much as I love the ones of me, my husband, our families, and our friends! They’re all so stunning!! Our photos made me laugh, cry, audibly say “awww,” and smile the biggest, cheesy grin. I absolutely believe your photographer is one of the most important vendors you choose for your wedding day, and I would 1000% recommend Debra Aslanidis Photography to everyone I know!!

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Awarded Best of Zola
Mae was an absolute pleasure to work with. I knew I liked her from the very first call. She was thorough and asked good questions to make sure she could capture what we wanted. I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough. I loved all the photos and the video made me cry. Mae is the type of person you want to be friends with after everything is done. Trust me, book Mae!!

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

Awarded Best of Zola
People often debate what's most important for a wedding: is it the venue, the food, the flowers... ?  It's the memories, and putting them in the hands of artists who can show you the heart and soul and feel of every moment - moments you can't plan for, you can never adequately take in, and many you would simply miss. Jarrod and Taylor are certainly technically gifted photographers and videographers, but more importantly they are artists whose true love is capturing yours.  The name says it all: The Narrative. My bride Ali and I will be forever grateful that we found and convinced them to tell our story.  I could imagine a thousands different weddings, but none without them by our side. Thank you, Jarrod and Taylor, you beautiful humans, for your truly awesome and unbelievable care, vision, and talents.  You've given us more than we could have ever imagined or even hoped for, through your perfect lens. With love and a lifetime of gratitude, Mike & Ali

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Offer

My name is Katelyn, I’m 26, and I’m based out of the Portland, Oregon area! I am beautifully, unapologetically, and loudly queer, and my pronouns are she/her. On any given day, you can find me meditating and reading by the water somewhere. I’m deeply into all things spiritual—moon phases, energy work, astrology, you name it—and I try to bring that sense of intention and magic into everything I do. Photography has been my outlet, my healing space and my rebellion for as long as i can remember. But I am inspired by all forms of art. I write poetry, I paint, I make pottery. I love making playlists.

t me start off with saying I inquired with Katelyn before I even secured my wedding venue because I HAD to have her capture my wedding day. She was the first vendor I booked. She immediately felt like a friend, and once my day arrived and we finally met, I felt like I’ve known her forever. I fell in love with her photos and her artistic eye and I anxiously awaited my wedding day because I knew she was going to capture it better than I could imagine. You can feel the emotions just by looking at each photo, as if they’re telling you the story right out of a book. When it came to my wedding day she kept asking the vibe, the mood, what I did like, what I didn’t like for photos, but I didn’t want to give any direction because I knew I could fully trust her and her vision. No matter what is in front of her lens, she’s going to capture it in the most creative and beautiful way possible. My wedding was just a few days ago and she already had a handful of photos ready and edited so exquisitely that it made me, my husband, my family and my friends tear up all over again, just like we were there reliving the moment over again. I never doubted or questioned for a moment that anything would be missed or not photographed to tell the whole story because if you so much just look at her instagram, you know that she puts all her passion into every single one of her photos. She wants to show the world your love story thru each photo and make sure that when you look back on them that each one is a small glimpse into the emotions and all the love that filled the air that day. I will recommend Katelyn, Yara and her team to any and everyone for the rest of my life. My special day was beyond perfect and I am so grateful that Katelyn and her team were apart of it. I will cherish my day, our friendship and my photos for the rest of my life. We love you Katelyn!! Love, Jordan & Seth

Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.

Met Nicole while working at a wedding in February 2024. She was very kind to our staff and not in the way at all. She allowed everyone to enjoy the party without blocking views or being rude. Yet managed to do her job with a smile the whole time! She is very pleasant!

Matthew took our wedding photos back in February 2024 and we could not have asked for a better photographer. Before the wedding we had several calls and he made sure he knew how the day was going to run and what type of photos we wanted him to prioritize. We really wanted a lot of candid moments of us and our family and Matthew delivered! He captured some amazing and beautiful moments from our ceremony and many fun moments from our reception as well a little details that we did not have time to appreciate because we were so busy being the “bride and groom” in the moment! We are finally taking some time to print our photos and looking back through our gallery makes us feel like we are reliving our beautiful day over and over again. Thank you Matthew for capturing so many beautiful moments that we will look back on and cherish for the rest of our lives.

I’m Kirstin! An emotionally driven, film-forward wedding photographer based in the desert Southwest. I work with wildly-in-love couples who want their wedding to feel like them: artful, offbeat, deeply intentional. I photograph elopements and micro-weddings with a storytelling lens- capturing not just how your day looked, but how it felt. My work blends digital + 35mm film to preserve the honest, unposed, heart-full moments in all their textured, tear-filled, windswept beauty. My couples tend to be nostalgic, a little nontraditional, and full of feeling. If that’s you- you’re in the right place.

These aren't just photos. These are stories. They're your story. My approach is natural. I don't force moments, but I do know when to help direct. I want you to feel comfortable enough to come as you are, and let me capture the true essence of "you", because that is what matters the most. I am a natural light wedding photographer, which means I use solely the natural light outside or inside a building. I know what types of light situations are best, and I know how to combat the ones that are out of our control. I think natural light brings out the creamy tones to skin, makes your eyes sparkle, and makes for an organic photo.

Awarded Best of Zola
Danielle was AWESOME. We loved working with her from quick zoom calls to the actual day, she was there for us the whole time. She was also incredibly accommodating and was flexible on options (had her photograph our welcome event vs. engagement session). She is fun and makes you feel comfortable when she is shooting you! Couldn't recommend her more to everyone!

Hi, we're Jonathan & Abbie, a couple deeply rooted in New Mexico, where we both grew up and fell in love. Married for 12 wonderful years, we've been blessed with three incredible children who fill our lives with joy and adventure. Despite being raised in New Mexico, our hearts belong at the ocean, and we seize every opportunity to escape to the coast and immerse ourselves in the beauty and tranquility of the sea.

It took my husband and I a few weeks to write this review as we wanted to make sure we found the right words to describe our experience with JT Photography. When we were looking for our photographer we met with a few and they were all nice and I’m sure would have done a great job, but as soon as we met Jonathan and Abbie we knew they were perfect for us. We hung up the phone call and looked at each other and said “that’s our photographer”. Communicating with them was easy the entire time and really just felt like we were talking to some friends. The photos we received are absolutely stunning. Jonathan captured every second of the day and did such a beautiful job. He was so fun and easy to work with. He made sure the day ran smoothly and that taking all our pictures was fun and easy. If you’re looking for a photographer that will blend in with your guests and take the dreamiest photos you could ever imagine, look no further. I’m so grateful we could trust Jonathan to capture our memories and we couldn’t be happier with the results!

I love the color purple, crazy hats, funk music, & all things outdoors! Traveling is my number one passion! I LOVE connecting with couples and getting to tell their love story authentically. I like to connect my subjects with nature and use natural lighting to create breathtaking images that emphasize my love for the natural beauty we find outside every day!

Brigette was so beyond amazing to work with, a true gem of a person. My husband and I did an elopement style wedding in Chicago and it truly felt as though Brigette went above and beyond for us, making our day so perfect. Our photos were absolutely stunning, they are perfection; we are so grateful and in love with how they turned out, she is a true master of her craft.

I'm a formally trained commercial photographer who would love to chat with you about photographing all of the moments that make your wedding day so magical. I specialize in a photojournalistic approach that aims to capture the essence of your day in an honest way.

Bob Wooley Weddings was a dream to work with for our session. Their communication was clear, quick, and low stress, which was so appreciated during the busy planning process. The final photos they delivered were high quality and dreamy, perfectly capturing the special moments of our day. They were adaptable and skilled at photographing my fiance's beloved motorcycle into some of the shots. We couldn't be happier with the memories Bob Wooley Weddings helped us create.
