Eivan's made our wedding day wonderful! Alexander Schmidt was our photographer, and our videographer was Noah. We got our pictures back sooner than expected, and they suited the exact style we had hoped for. Communication was great, photos were easy to access, and we were allowed free download for so many pictures! One family portrait had one person not looking, otherwise people were smiling and looking in everything. Many people commented on their professionalism as well as their kindness at the wedding. Thanks, Eivan's!

George street is AMAZING! We could not be happier with them from start to finish. Our initial consultation was informative and from that day forward they were always available to answer any questions we had throughout the process. I love that they work with so many different photographers and videographers. Being able to view each persons photo style and tailoring to exactly what we wanted and envisioned was awesome. Our photographer and videographer both reached out a week before the actual wedding to ensure they had all of the details and any special requests or must have photo ops from us. The turn around time for the photos and video was quick! 1 month for the photos about 2 months for the video. Multiple friends said some of our photos should be in a wedding magazine. And the cherry on top is the pricing which is super reasonable! Absolutely would recommend George Street!

Hanel, the studio manager, really helped structure our day's timeline and he was integral for helping everything run smoothly. Mike, our main photographer, was so masterful with his lighting and he really went above and beyond for our engagement photoshoot and wedding day as well! The staff had the mindset of prioritizing our needs as the couple first and foremost, which I really appreciated when there are a lot of differing opinions going on leading up to the day.

Lauren is truly an incredible artist. She knows how to pose her clients and never made it feel awkward or forced. It’s like there wasn’t even a camera there, just a couple of friends hanging out! :) Lauren joined us for our elopement and then a couple days later for a reception with around 40 people. She was very thorough in helping us decide where we wanted the elopement to happen, and was very patient when I changed my mind 10 times. She brought me a bouquet that matched my dress and champagne bottles for us to pop. She is incredibly thoughtful and you can really see how passionate she is about what she does. She was so quick to edit and send us the photos, I seriously cannot express how much of a joy it was working with her. I never once worried about capturing these special days with Lauren there, and now we have such beautiful photos to cherish forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
Scarlet Oak Studio could not have been better to work with. They came recommended by our venue (Log Haven) and almost seemed too good to be true. Our photography and videography package was the same cost as just photography elsewhere and included multiple shooters and lighting. Linsey was our lead shooter and I truly can’t say enough good things about her and the rest of the team! Linsey is so full of joy and kept things fun and light but also on track. She called us prior to the wedding day so we could walk through all of our shots and make a detailed schedule. We had some concerns on timing and Linsey worked out a “fake send off” to capture the photos without stopping the party or having to add another hour to our package. Pictures can be tough for both me and my now husband so I was worried the photos would feel uncomfortable on the actual day but that could not have been further from the truth! The entire team was so kind and thoughtful, they captured every moment without feeling intrusive. They gave helpful direction without making things feel too posed or staged and gave us space during a private vows reading while still capturing the love in that moment. I wanted photos that felt true to the spirit of the day and I definitely think the joy radiates through each picture. I have had multiple friends message me specifically about how great the photos turned out - and I know you might be thinking everyone says that to the bride, but I’m talking about photos taken of my friends that they’re loving! So if Scarlet Oak Studio seems to be too good to be true don’t question it, just book it! :)

Allison and her husband was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From the very beginning, Allison was organized, energetic, and incredibly helpful in guiding us through the photography planning process. On the day of our wedding, when the weather unexpectedly changed and threw off our timeline, Allison remained calm and professional, quickly adapting to the new circumstances and finding creative ways to capture beautiful photos around our venue. She was also a rockstar during the family photo portion of the day, efficiently directing everyone to ensure we got all the necessary shots. Allison's hardworking, organized approach and the high-quality, professional results she delivered made her an incredible value. We are thrilled with the photos from our special day and would highly recommend Allison Lauryn Photography to any couple looking for an amazing wedding photographer.

Hi, I'm Candace and I have a thing for weddings! I didn't start as a wedding photographer, I actually started as a BIRTH photographer surprisingly! I was addicted to capturing real and raw moments for families to have and relive over and over. I actually was nervous for weddings, which is why I didn't start doing them. One thing led to another and as people started asking me if I WOULD shoot their wedding, I decided to give it a try. Fast-forward to dozens and dozens of weddings later and I am obsessed!! I am a full fledged wedding photographer and I LOVE capturing every single moment of your day. The addiction is real!!

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
