About Developing Diamonds Photography LLC
Developing Diamonds Photography LLC
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!
I am a full time event photographer and capturing these monumental moments for all the great couples I've worked with has been such an honor of mine. I truly love being able to tell stories with my craft and freeze these beautiful moments for people. I take pride in my work and I take my craft very seriously. Wedding and event photography is everything to me and all i do, so I am always available for my couples and I take a lot of pride in my communication. I also provide same-day sneak peeks as well as a drone video so my couples can relive their day instantly!

The Best Photographer EVER
Elliot is ABSOLUTELY incredible. He is so fast!! And is photos look like a dream! I personally worry about myself in photos but booking Elliot was the best decision I made the entire wedding process! First, he is the fastest responder whenever it comes to booking, questions, ideas, and anything in-between. He is a texter and is so communicative and responsive. He has it down! Second, his photos! He took not only our wedding photos but our engagement photos. For our engagement photos, I had no set idea on where I wanted them done and he took us to the prettiest outdoor spot. Our photos were incredible! Every person was commenting how our engagement photos looked like a fairytale. For our wedding, he was snapping away like crazy. By dinner, he had already edited and sent me 25-30 photos that were jaw dropping. I cannot say enough positive things about my experience with Elliot and Developing Diamonds Photography. Thank you Elliot for helping my day be captured in the most incredible and beautiful way!

Please Hire Developing Diamonds for Your Wedding!
I cannot recommend Elliot at Developing Diamonds Photography enough for your photography needs. He is so detail oriented and has provided us amazing photographs. Our wedding party was a chatty group and Elliot kept us moving and got all the photos - plus some! He had fun ideas and caught a ton of candid photos throughout the night. Our engagement session was also amazing and he really captured us and our story well. He is so chill and funny and had everything. you could need on your wedding day. He could just tell when I was getting warm and would bring out a fan. He also had stain remover when the bottom of my dress got dirty before the ceremony. Truly a great photographer and I absolutely recommend him for your wedding!

We loved our pictures!
Elliot was absolutely amazing, and we couldn't be happier with our wedding photos! He made the entire process so easy and stress-free, which meant we could just enjoy our day without worrying about a thing. We received our sneak peek photos just a couple of days after the wedding, and our full gallery only four weeks later—which was incredibly fast! We highly recommend Elliot to anyone looking for a talented, professional photographer who truly delivers beautiful memories.

We had an amazing experience with Elliot as our photographer. He was helpful during our consultation, very professional, and provided clear directions during the photos. He was prepared for the day and didn't let a little rain stop him from capturing our moments. Working with Elliot was fun and by the looks of our first looks, we couldn't be happier with the results.

We love Elliot!
We couldn't be happier with our wedding photos! Elliot had so many creative ideas while still making sure every single thing we wanted was covered. From start to finish, he was incredibly easy to work with, professional, relaxed, and genuinely enjoyable to have around on such an important day. He made us feel comfortable and confident, and it truly shows in our photos. We're beyond grateful for the experience and the beautiful memories he captured. Highly recommend!
