Awarded Best of Zola
Jennifer Christi Photo & Video was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. Their communication was timely, easy, transparent, and they were always flexible from start to finish. The quality of their work was truly professional, efficient, intentional and excellent. This team made our day so much fun and felt like we were hanging out with friends. They listened to exactly what we wanted, were great at communicating, and were also very detailed which we really appreciated so there was nothing overlooked. They even went above and beyond when some family members didn't show on time for pictures, taking them a little bit later which we didn't expect but very much appreciated. The results were everything we hoped for and then some! We would definitely recommend Jennifer Christi Photo & Video to any couple planning their wedding.

My partner and I hired Sean for our engagement photos and we were extremely impressed! He was super helpful in helping us pose and very skilled in the ways he used lighting to capture our best features. He captured really genuine moments with such skill. He also made sure the job was well done and he got all the photos that we could have wanted. We had a blast working with him! The photos are stunning and I genuinely can’t stop looking at them!

Cannot recommend Cece enough! First and foremost the pictures turned out AMAZING. Most of my guests didn’t take photos throughout the event simply because they saw Cece everywhere and knew she was getting the shot AND SHE WAS. She was so communicative and fun to work with. We are also new to the area and she was amazing at helping us find other great and reliable vendors.

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!!

Like many people, I spent 10 years within corporate America and although I am thankful for my experience, it wasn't feeding my soul. I can be honest and say that I learned so much- my customer service skills, high-level organizational & strategy skills, and my overall work ethic comes directly from my experience within a regular ol' 9-5. However, I've been able to pair what I learned the last 10 years with my passion for photography, and have built this business to provide a stellar experience, the same one I would expect if I were getting married. Below I'll dive into what sets Loui apart, and I hope to hear about your upcoming day!

Hayley and I are wedding videographers (Sublime Exposures Films). We meet photographers all the time and know what it's like to work with normal ones, bad ones, and now even great ones. Meg of LouiPhotography was the most decisive AND remained flexible. She was the most communicative about what she was going to do and why, and was extremely transparent. We're originally from Fargo, and working with her made us want to move to the cities to hang with the real professionals. Thanks for making us feel so welcomed and working with us so well to make our jobs easy. All teams should be able to collaborate like that to make the day the least stressful for the brides and grooms as possible and we shall always strive for this standard. Hope to work with you again soon!

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 never saw myself having a wedding. Never imagined the venue, the flowers, or the centerpieces. Never had any ideas about what my hair would look like or the dress I would wear. One night I was sitting with my mom and she said “I see you getting married on a beach somewhere, with just a few friends. Then afterwards we have a bonfire and music, and we laugh all night.” It’s like she was living in my brain- that felt so right to me- and I had never seen a wedding like that. I didn’t know that kind of thing was allowed? From then on that’s the only way I’ve pictured my wedding to be one day. That’s what I want to help my couples find.

Awarded Best of Zola
We highly recommend Lily and her work is amazing! She took our engagement photos and then our wedding photos on a rainy day and they turned out so good. I have received so many compliments on my photos and we aren't sure how they turned out so incredible in the rain, but she is magic! If you are looking for a fun time and moody, earthy photos Lily is your girl! She is incredibly talented and won't let you down.

Hello Hello! I'm Eleanor, a Wedding Photographer Based in Minneapolis. I specialize in documentary-style, artistic, and timeless wedding and portrait photography. I bring a calm energy to wedding days that my clients appreciate. My work is centered around capturing moments in an honest way.

Let me save you ALL the time by telling you to BOOK SEVERINA STUDIOS NOW! I spent countless hours searching for wedding photographers on wedding apps, IG, etc. and Elle's portfolio is unmatched. She was everything we hoped for and more! She kept everyone at ease during photos and captured so many moments and details we'll cherish forever. She worked so well with our coordinator to keep our timeline on track and kept us laughing all along the way. Our venue is known to be difficult for photographers, as it's very dim and intended to be candlelit. It was no challenge for Elle - her work was stunning! Seriously - end your stressful search for this critically important role and book Severina Studios!

The purpose of documenting your wedding is day isn't just to relive it for the rest of your life but also to pass your legacy down for generations. Of course, your legacy isn't just those photographs of you smiling at the camera. But it's all the people you surround yourself with on your biggest day. All those little moments that build not only your wedding day but your life. Trained with a photojournalist's eye, I work to get all the candid moments on a wedding day. While also small chunks of time throughout your day to get those beautifully posed photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rachel Newville Photography was the best at capturing the love on our wedding day. From the sweet little moments shared, the big laughs, and encapsulating those timeless moments. She did absolutely phenomenal work! Our bridal party loved working with her, and said it was like she had know us our whole lives. Rachel had great ideas and just told is to trust her and I’m SO glad we did because looking back at those pictures makes me feel that investing in her work was the best way to relive that best day.

As both a photographer and writer, I've found my niche focusing on the bits that make up each love story and wedding day. The quiet moments, the fierce ones, the happy and nostalgic ones. While I make sure clients get all the shots they need, my focus is to simply capture the day as it happens, documenting the moments that will fade from memory as time goes by. My style has a modern twist on classic photojournalistic-style—true to life color with a bit of mood, at times sharp and others soft, with creative composition and approach.

Zoe is an empathetic creator that listens. She made us feel relaxed and listened to our wants and needs for our day. She supported us by helping to create a timeline for our wedding, and took the time to check in with us several times throughout the process. Not only are her photos beautiful, but she doesn’t shy away from trying new things. The way she captured emotions from our guests and us on our day made us feel so blessed that we found her as our photographer. We actually cried seeing the photos that came back to us after our wedding. So stunning. Photographers really can make a difference on your wedding day, and Zoe definitely did.
