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.

We loved having them there to memorialize us not only on camera but in polaroid and super8 as well. Mae is so skilled at capturing their client in the moment to create beautiful and unique photographs that will be cherished forever.

Here at Vick Photography, we want to give you the ultimate wedding experience from start to finish. We live for the happy moments that keep you curious and we are here to listen, laugh, and create intentional photographs for you. I have been photographing weddings for over 15 years and can't wait to bring you into our Vick Photography family.

We hired Vick Photography for our wedding and Andrew delivered solid work from start to finish. He showed up with positive energy and a cooperative spirit that made the day feel smooth. Andrew takes a high volume of shots to ensure nothing gets missed, which gives you confidence in the coverage. That said, communication before and after the wedding was slower than we hoped, and during the day it felt like the direction was mostly his call rather than a collaboration with us. He's clearly experienced and skilled at what he does, though the process felt a bit more transactional than personal. If you're looking for a seasoned photographer who will capture your day reliably, Andrew is a solid choice—just know that you'll want to discuss your vision upfront since he doesn't ask for much input once the day begins.

Hey there! I'm Eric, an outdoor-loving, laid-back wedding photographer based in the Midwest who lives for capturing those real, unfiltered moments that make each love story unique. When I'm not behind the camera, you'll probably find me hiking trails or discovering new local breweries.

The best photos happen when couples feel completely at ease and free to be themselves.

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!

At Studio Twelve:52, we believe your wedding day deserves to be captured as authentically and vibrantly as you experience it. As a married photography duo with over 14 years of experience and 600+ weddings documented, we specialize in creating true-to-life/timeless imagery that tells your unique love story. Serving Minnesota and beyond — we combine a 50/50 fine art approach with a documentary eye to capture every joyful, heartfelt, and beautifully unexpected moment while creating stunning portraits as well. Our couples are modern romantics with impeccable taste -valuing experiences, personal touches, and, of course, their beloved furbabies!

WOW, where do I begin. Kasey and Tyler are masters at what they do! From two different engagement sessions to our wedding day, they knew exactly how to get the "perfect shot". Our wedding day came with a small amount of "conveniently timed" rain (during our first look and wedding party photos!), and they knew exactly how to work with what we had (a tall tree to hide under and an umbrella..). The attached photo was taken during a downpour rain and it STILL looks beautiful!! They were incredibly organized and all photos were pre-planned so they had a set plan in order to avoid wasting time. They listened to what my husband and I wanted, and made sure we were taking care of ourselves (eh-hem, reminding us to eat multiple times throughout the day..). They were so easy going but didn't have a problem putting their foot down if a random family member or other vendor were "problematic" (per the brides request!!). I cannot wait to work with them again! THANK YOU Kasey and Tyler for being the best in the business!!! 3

I am the heart and soul behind Dakota Layne Photo. Based in western Wisconsin, my love for photography started as a seven-year-old girl as the flower girl in a family wedding and has now become an extension of who I am. I approach my clients from a place of empathy - understanding who they are, what is important to them, and how I can bring their story to life in a significant and meaningful way.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment I inquired with Dakota, she was prompt. We instantly jumped on a call and we literally talked for a hour! I instantly knew she was going to be our photographer! Throughout the planning process, she consistently reached out to check in. Her thoughtful and uplifting voice messages were such a light midst the stresses of wedding planning. I would get so excited when I saw her name pop up on my phone, her bubbly personality and genuine care in her messages meant everything to us!! Our engagement photo day was a scorcher--95 degrees and pure sun!! But Dakota made the absolute best of it, even as we took breaks to cool down. Despite the sweat and crazy heat, our photos turned our magazine worthy--seriously stunning!! In the weeks leading up to the wedding she checked in almost daily, which was so reassuring. Her online website and questionnaire were very thorough and incredibly helpful. At one point, I even called her to vent about a difficult wedding situation (that had nothing to do with her), and she listened and reassured me through it all! She is truly a wedding industry professional!! On our wedding day, her presence was incredibly pleasant and everything flowed perfect. We fell a bit behind due to hair and makeup, and she continued to reassure me that we would be just fine. Her photography style is absolutely stunning, with great attention to detail that captured every important moment for us. We received our sneak peeks just a day or two after the wedding which was one of my favorite memories ever!!-- getting to reminisce on the stunning photos with my now husband on our first day of our honeymoon. It meant the world to us! The full gallery was delivered within the timeframe discussed in our contract as promised, I even had a few questions about different angles and additional photos and she delivered on all of my requests. Her gallery website was very easy to use and share. Overall we had a 1000/10 experience with having Dakota as our wedding photographer. Not only is she an incredibly talented photographer, but she is also so personable and was one of the best decisions and investments we have ever made! When it is your special day, you want to be surrounded by the absolute best, and that is Dakota!!

My art is dedicated to capturing genuine, raw human emotion through playful and experimental photography. With a background in photojournalism and 17+ years of experience photographing couples, she tells the story of both the wedding day and the couple in a unique combination of candids, details, and portraits.

Finding a photographer who clicks with your family is a game-changer, and we hit the jackpot! Her bubbly personality lit up the room, making everyone, especially my toddler, feel like they were part of a fun playdate rather than a photo session. It’s not just her warm vibe but her exceptional talent that captured our moments so beautifully, making each photo a treasure. Working with her was a breeze; she’s accommodating, genuinely caring, and has an amazing eye for capturing life’s little wonders. If you’re looking for fun and stunning photos, she’s your go-to.

We're Ray and Kelly, a husband-and-wife team who's spent twenty years photographing weddings documentary-style: candid, unscripted, closer to journalism than posed portraiture. You won't find us posing your bridal party for forty minutes. We're watching for the real moments instead, like the look between you two before you walk down the aisle. We're based in Wisconsin's Driftless Region and shoot weddings from Madison to Door County and the towns between. Most of our couples want a day that feels like them: good food, real people, minimal posing. If that sounds right, we'd love to hear from you.

Ray and Kelly Photography made our wedding day feel like they genuinely cared about capturing our story, not just checking boxes. From the initial consultation through final print delivery, they guided us through every decision with expertise and warmth that put us at ease. Their input on our photo timeline was invaluable—they helped us make the most of our schedule, and the golden hour shots they delivered are absolutely stunning. What really sets them apart is how personalized their entire process is, tailoring everything to what matters most to us as a couple. We highly recommend Ray and Kelly to any couple looking for photographers who will go the extra mile to make your vision a reality.

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 hired Katie for our extended family photoshoot, as I had met her in the wedding world. I am a wedding florist and I've seen her work for a while now thought she'd be a good fit for family photos, and I was so right! I had some anxieties about the photoshoot and Katie went above and beyond to ensure I felt comfortable and I ended up loving the photos! She was so clear and great at directing our big family on where to stand and how to pose. Loved our experience!

Hello! I'm Denae! I am an MN-based photographer but always open for travel! There’s something so special about being trusted to document such meaningful moments, and I love capturing your story in a genuine, intentional way as it naturally unfolds. Being a part of those memories is truly an honor.

From our first conversation, Denae was consistent and thorough in helping us plan every detail. She walked us through creating a timeline when we had no idea where to start, and showed us that we didn't need a ton of poses to get stunning shots. On our wedding day, she was more than a photographer she behind the scenes helping as well —she captured moments we never would have thought to ask for and kept things fun and relaxed. Her directing style is calm and confident, which made us feel at ease the entire time. The photos are beautiful and we've gotten so many compliments that we booked her again for another event. Denae knows what she's doing, and we couldn't recommend her enough.
