Hey yall! I am Laura. I am a lover of Jesus & ALL people. I am obsessed with sunrises, a collector of junk & antiques, a wife & mother, & an artist. You will always hear a mix of Dolly, Loretta, Jinks, Randy, Waylon & Willie playing near me as well. As a family we love to travel, camp, hunt, & enjoy the outdoors. Please take me out WEST! One thing I have learned in the past 12 years is that I was created to see God's beauty & to share this experience through my work. Whatever you find here that is good, or beautiful is not to my credit, but God's.

“Laura has a great eye for detail and is super fun to work with! We love our wedding photos so much and will cherish them forever!”

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 
Rating: 4.9 (106 reviews)
  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves West York, IL

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
“If you really want to save money on florals, then go with Flower Moxie! Just a heads up, IT IS A LOT OF WORK, but they give you very clear email instructions of what to expect and there are MANY resources they provide through articles, videos, etc. I was mistaken in thinking that all I would have to do is arrange flowers in vases. You are actually cutting, cleaning and processing everything. We refused to spend money on flowers through a florist, but with Flower Moxie, we were able to incorporate some florals for a very reasonable price!”

We'll turn all your raw footage into a beautiful, nostalgic Modern Day Home Video® you'll actually love to rewatch. It's raw, real, and totally you.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I cannot recommend PressRecord enough! From start to finish, the entire process was incredibly easy and completely stress-free. The camcorders were simple for our guests to use, and everything was clearly explained, making the whole experience foolproof. What truly impressed me was their customer service. They were unbelievably kind and responded to every email so quickly. They even re-edited our wedding film **twice** to make sure it was exactly what we envisioned, and they happily searched through all of the footage to include very specific moments that were important to us. The most meaningful thing they did was incorporate a photo I sent them of our memorial table honoring my mom and my husband's grandparents who had passed away. Including that tribute in our wedding video meant more to us than I can express, and I'm so grateful they took the time to make it happen. Our final 5-minute home video feels so personal and captures the heart of our wedding day perfectly. If you're considering PressRecord, do it—you'll not only end up with an amazing keepsake, but you'll also be working with a team that genuinely cares about preserving what matters most.”

Hi, I’m Connie—congratulations on your engagement. Thank you for being here and for considering me as your photographer. I take a thoughtful, hands-on approach and believe the experience matters just as much as the final images. I’m involved well before the wedding day—collaborating on vision, timelines, and details to ensure everything feels intentional and effortless. I love curated Pinterest boards, open communication, and creating imagery that feels elevated, timeless, and personal. This is your day, and it should reflect you. Let’s talk!

Awarded Best of Zola
“We cannot recommend Connie enough! We worked with her for both our engagement photos at The Art Institute and our elopement at City Hall/Garfield Park Conservatory, and she was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. Our engagement session happened to fall on one of the busiest days that I've ever seen at The Art Institute. Despite the crowds and chaos, Connie was completely calm and made everything feel so easy. Looking at our photos, you would never know how busy it was. Every photo is beautiful and feels so effortless. On our elopement day, Connie was just as amazing. She navigated the craziness of City Hall with ease and wasn't fazed by anything, including rain and a protest that happened right in the middle of our photos! She stayed calm, flexible, and positive through it all, which made such a difference on a day that could have easily felt stressful. She was also incredibly communicative throughout the entire process, gave us helpful tips and direction, and somehow made two people who are definitely not naturals in front of the camera feel comfortable and confident. And most importantly, our photos are absolutely beautiful. Connie has such a talent for capturing genuine, authentic moments while making the entire experience feel relaxed and fun. We feel so lucky that she was there to capture both of these special days!”

Believe it or not, we often have people ask if our pictures throughout our website are showing a mix of fresh and faux and…no they aren’t! Although fresh florals are pretty, we are totally in love with poser-blooms all the way here and that’s what we design 100% of our orders with.

Awarded Best of Zola
“We were so delighted to use The Faux Bouquets for our wedding. We ended up having a family emergency that forced us to downsize the size and budget of the wedding just a few months before the wedding, and the team at TFB were so accommodating and helped us to find a solution that still allowed us to use their flowers in our (modified) ceremony. We were a bit concerned about the flowers getting smushed in shipping, but they arrived looking absolutely STUNNING and with plenty of time before the big day. Even my gardener of a grandma couldn't tell they weren't real flowers! We were so happy with how everything looked on the day, and in pictures they look just as lovely. Can't recommend The Faux Bouquets enough! There's no visual difference compared to real bouquets and they are much more affordable. The last big selling point that I would advise future brides, and I did not really consider this, is that because the flowers don't wilt, we could set the decor out the night before--which is a LIFESAVER to not have to worry about on the special day! Anything that will save you time and stress on the day of the wedding is a big win!”

They have unfortunately raised their prices and partnered with a very well known company (they won't let me put the name in this), which are known scams for wedding vendors. Please reach out using my website if you are interested**** Hiii! I'm Heather Schoolcraft - owner & CEO! I'm a small town gal from WV who LOVES traveling and pops of color. I've designed my entire company around creating authentic + magical love stories. On your wedding day, our goal is to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and to focus on the raw + real moments on your day. Don't settle for less because you have to; let ME help you get the photos + video that you've always dreamed of.

“We are obsessed with our photos. Heather is seriously the coolest, most genuine person to work with. From the second she showed up for our engagement session, the vibes were perfect—fun, calm, organized, and so, so caring. You can tell she truly loves her clients and pours her heart into what she does. Her team made us feel comfortable the whole wedding day and captured everything so naturally and beautifully. Our photos feel effortless, real, and completely “us.” If you want a photographer who’s not only insanely talented but also your hype-woman and calm presence all in one, she’s it. 10/10 recommend. We’d recommend Heather and her team a thousand times over.”

Hey, hey my name is Ali. NY-based, but working nation-wide, I'm a wedding photographer who captures experiences, genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizes precious memories. I focus on visualizing how it felt to live your wedding day, while also crafting editorializations simply for the sake of intentional, living art. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

“My husband and I cannot recommend Ali enough to anyone looking for a photographer!! We first got in contact with Ali last year for our planned wedding, but due to unforeseen circumstances we were unable to have our big day, BUT we were lucky enough to transfer her services over to my sister and brother and law! After meeting Ali in person on their wedding day and seeing the magic she can do, it was an absolute no brainer that she would be there for our big day and any and every other event we need photography for! She truly became family and we cannot thank her enough for everything she’s done! She goes above and beyond in her work and truly makes the day so much easier and more fun than ever!”
