My name is Elliot Stokes and I am a photographer located in the Madison, WI area, but I work all across Wisconsin and Illinois. I have been drawn to the camera since I was young, but becoming a father has really shown me the magic behind capturing the most candid and beautiful moments of our lives. I started my journey into professional photography officially in the summer of 2019 and received my Bachelors of Fine Arts degree with honors in Digital Photography in the spring of 2022. I absolutely love what I do and look forward to every new experience and opportunity this journey takes me on!

Absolutely incredible. He scouted out our shoot spot after a storm hit, incredible response time and turn around time but above all, just absolutely kind and you really felt like you got to know him in the time span of taking your photos. As people who have never had professional photos done and don’t like getting our photos taken at all, it was an incredible choice and we are SO glad we went with Developing Diamonds. Our family and friends loved them and couldn’t believe how well he was able to capture the moments where we were posed but it didn’t look like it. We recommend to everyone.

Hi there! I'm Sara, a wedding photographer based out of Madison, WI. All love is welcome! 🏳️‍🌈 I am all about the story-telling aspect and candidly capturing every one of those special moments on your day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sara blew our expectations out of the water! She managed a lot of chaos effortlessly and really took the time to listen to everything we wanted out of our wedding photos. She controlled the chaos of the wild groomsmen, got the absolute best pictures of my mom who needs more support and can be difficult to photograph, and got perfect pictures of our fur baby! There wasn’t anything she couldn’t handle! She got the coolest party shots of the night and captured some really emotional photos as well that we will treasure forever. You won’t regret working with Sara, only that you didn’t have a reason to book her sooner!

Kim at Collective Grace was incredible to work with. She did an engagement session as well as our wedding and both were such a great experience.

Hello! I’m a wedding photographer based in Madison, Wisconsin. Weddings are one of my favorite things to photograph because they are filled with so much love, joy, and meaning. Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime moment — a day when everyone you love is in the same place, celebrating you — and it deserves to be documented beautifully and authentically. My favorite memories are sitting with my kids, flipping through photo albums, and reliving those big milestones and everyday moments. I believe your wedding photos should be just like that — something you’ll look back on for years and be transported right back to how it felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have gotten to work with Nick Garcia Photography several times over the last year and every time it has been phenomenal. He not only captures amazing images, but does so in a kind and professional way. Very prompt as well. I highly recommend Nick!

Hi, I’m Cheyenne, and I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a photographer based in Southern Wisconsin, specializing in earthy, warm, and romantic tones. Photography has always been a passion of mine, and I’m incredibly excited to turn a longtime hobby into a fulfilling career doing what I love most—capturing meaningful moments. When I’m not behind the camera, I work full-time as a medical assistant. Outside of work, I love spending time with my wife and our family, soaking in the little moments that make life so special.

Cheyanne Jo Photography was the perfect choice for our sweet Summer Session. From the very first interaction, Cheyanne's sweet, kind, and professional demeanor put us at ease. As a queer couple, it was so important to us to have a photographer who would make us feel comfortable and capture our love in an inclusive, whimsical way. Cheyanne exceeded all of our expectations - she was truly dedicated to ensuring we had the most beautiful, high-quality photos. Cheyanne's loving approach and ability to make us feel safe and natural in front of the camera resulted in photos that are nothing short of amazing. We will be using Cheyanne Jo Photography for all of our future photography needs!

I'm a self proclaimed music enthusiast, homebody, & a love-your-photos advocate who promises to be with you for every single step to i do. On days that I'm at home, I'm usually curled up on the couch with my golden doodle and a good book. If the weather is nice, you can find me at the pool, hiking, or downhill skiing in the colder months! Oh.. & I LOVE food.

How do you put into words a service that is absolutely perfect and everything you’ve ever dreamed of? Caitlin is absolutely incredible. She has gone above and beyond other photographers I’ve worked with in every way. She helped us from the start with all sorts of information, tips and tricks and helped us create a timeline that worked for everyone and kept the whole day flowing. From engagement photos, to boudoir photos to our wedding – Caitlin was there and documented every step of the way. She truly is a godsend. She is so talented and every photo is crisp, beautiful and shows the true emotion of the day. She has one of the fastest turn-around times I have ever come across for wedding photographers. (We had our sneak peak 14 hours after she left our wedding and our entire gallery in 5 DAYS!) and every photo is perfect. She’s so quick and efficient and the groomsman didn’t complain once! She’s got a wonderful personality and she’s got jokes and makes every situation light and so enjoyable. She’s like a ninja and sometimes I forgot she was there! She’s so thorough and doesn’t miss a beat if something changes on the fly. We truly love all of our photos and recommend her to all of our friends who are getting married. She made the whole experience a breeze and so enjoyable and we love our photos and her so much!

Working with Ashley was such a dream! Her attention to detail and vibes are amazing. We felt a little bit awkward during our engagement photo shoot just because we had not taken professional photos together before and Ashley was able to break the ice and keep us giggling the whole time. Do not question any of the silly things she has you do because your photos will be that much better for it. We would love to work with Ashley again in the future & cannot wait to display her work around our house!

Mayah is the absolute best photographer in Chicago, and I couldn't recommend her and her team enough! Mayah was the very first vendor I booked when I began wedding planning as after I saw her portfolio I knew she would be able to capture our engagement and wedding photos exactly how we envisioned (and actually infinitely better than what we envisioned). From the first phone call with Mayah I felt confident and at ease that we was the best choice for us, and every text/email/call afterwards was an absolute joy. She is SO creative, genuine, and talented and she makes the photo experience FUN (even if you're camera shy like me and my husband :)). Her photography style seems to capture the uniqueness of each and every one of her couples as she truly takes the time to get to know them and their vision. 10000/10 recommend Mayah Lee Photography for any kind of photo needs you can imagine!

I cannot put into words just how instrumental Lauren and her team were to our wedding day. I truly do not think it would have been possible without her. In case you need convincing, here are the top 10 reasons why you should have hired LAR Photography for your wedding yesterday: 1) (the most obvious reason) She is a genius behind the camera. She has a true talent for finding the beauty in every moment and capturing it. 2) She has a knack for making getting your picture taken not feel awkward, something we were very afraid about as people who don't often find themselves in front of a camera. 3) She has a wonderful team of people behind her. Shout out to Jared and Ashley as our second shooter and day-of coordinator respectively! 4) She goes above and beyond to make sure the final product is perfect (ie: color correcting every picture for my beautiful, wonderful maid of honor who unfortunately ordered the wrong color dress). 5) She is an expert on all things weddings. Lauren was the one who answered most of our wedding questions throughout the year-long process. This was not limited to photography questions. She knows how weddings work and gave us invaluable information about our timeline, our rehearsal, coordinating with other vendors, and the logistics of set up and tear down. 6) With Lauren, we felt like we were her only clients. Whenever we had a question, Lauren answered. She truly spent hours with us on the phone during the planning process. 7) On the wedding day, she is not just a photographer. Her and her team took care of literally everything that went wrong. They handled decor that broke. They made sure everyone in the wedding party was taken care of. Lauren even bustled my dress on when my mom and I couldn't figure it out. 8) Lauren is dedicated to her craft and her client's vision. We tasked her with taking a group picture that included every guest at our wedding. Was she too short to do this? Yes. Did she stand on a chair to get the shot anyway? Also yes. 9) The sheer volume of pictures that we got back from our wedding is outstanding. We have hundreds. During our first look through, we saved pictures that really stood out as favorites. We ended up adding 121 pictures to that favorites album. 10) Lauren is just an amazing person. She is dependable, professional, dedicated, compassionate, flexible, and a powerhouse behind the camera. We are so glad we found her.
