HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts! (But I mean who isnt! I just cant help it!) FUN FACT: I speak switzerdütsch, aka a German slang. My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

Jason Snorlax Photography

5.0

Norwalk, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Charleston, IL

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.

Angela is a Destination wedding photographer capturing timeless memories. She loves providing couples with candid images that they can look back on for a lifetime. Her passion is to connect and tell couples’ love stories through the beauty and emotion of the moments captured.

We booked Angela for our Winter Park wedding in the spring. She bared with me through changing venues/planning an entirely different wedding. Angela and I really hit it off but even if we didn’t; her work is impeccable and she is so professional. She handled my insane MIL, lifted me up, and made accommodations that she didn’t need to make. Angela is a DREAM to work with and the sweetest of sweethearts. We received our sneak peek one week out and received almost 100 photos! I recommend Angela to anyone who wants a light and airy photography style.

Hey there! Since you are trusting me to capture these special moments in your life, I figured you should probably know a bit about me, right? I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

Awarded Best of Zola
Diana was so amazing throughout the entire process leading up to my Wedding, and of course the Wedding day itself! Dianna is professional, fun/funny, and knows how to calm you down if your nerves get worked up. She was also great in taming my crazy large family, which I really appreciated! Diana isn't just your photographer, she becomes truly your friend. I am so thankful for her and her quality of photos and talent are unmatched!! Honestly, I can say sooo much more about Diana and her team, but I will stop there and just say BOOK HER!!! You will not regret it!

Photography was one of the most important things for my wedding as that’s what you have years later so I was VERY picky when it came to selecting a photographer. I wanted someone I could feel comfortable with that I wouldn’t be awkward around and who could help give elegant and timeless photos in a style my husband and I would like. MaddyKate delivered that. She worked with us about everything from privacy, to added shots, to what kind of feel and photos would be important. She even offered to have a second shooter there for us which was a dream come true for certain photos I had wanted. Overall I would highly recommend and would book her again for photos in the future.

Authentic moments are what set our hearts on fire! We strive to capture you exactly as you are and bring out your personality. Think of us as your best friends that you haven't gotten to meet yet - we are known for dancing with our couples at receptions, snuggling babies to get a few solo pictures of the parents, and becoming lifelong friends with our seniors. We cannot wait to meet you!

Awarded Best of Zola
TL;DR: 15/10 -- She simplifies EVERYTHING about wedding planning AND takes the most beautiful photos I have ever seen. She will be taking our pictures for the rest of our lives. They are incredible. Kyra from beginning to end made everything absolute perfection. The pictures, my sanity, basically everything. We brought her to Crozet, VA for our engagement photos and our big day. Pre-Engagement get to know you session: We face-timed for 2.5 hours (not required just happened naturally). She cares about everything and anything you want to share and supports your vision. Engagement Session: She took the time (right after having a baby nonetheless) to come to us and make sure we were happy and comfortable in every way. Kyra got to know Dan (my husband) better and is the only person to this day that can make him smile naturally for pictures. Planning: Kyra provided anything and everything I needed or didn't know I needed. Refined/recommended timelines, pictures, hair styles, dresses, snacks for getting ready, laughter, you name it, she did it. If I had another vendor I needed a second opinion on, she reviewed their work. If I wasn't sure on chicken or crab cakes, she knew what would be a crowd pleaser. Basically she had wisdom and advice well beyond her years to accompany her incredible talent. Weekend of: Kyra and Heather came out early and scoped out the best locations for everything indoors and outside at the exact time the ceremony would be held to make sure the lighting was perfect. Day of: I would have fallen apart without her. Every picture she took was of real, candid, happy moments that my brain was too stressed to miss. When I ripped my dress, she and Heather whipped out sewing scissors to fix the problem. They kept the train moving and captured every moment beautifully. Best to have a photographer dancing with y'all to get the moment just right, and she does that. If I could give more stars I would.

Heyo! I am a lady (she/her) that adores photography. I describe my style as eclectic classic. I absolutely cover the basics, but add in a lot of fun and creative shots too. I am based out of Central Southern Illinois, but I am willing to travel to any location.

My wedding photos were the perfect depiction of my wedding day. I felt confident and you can tell him the pictures. I had told Sollie that I was self-conscious about how I looked at times. Sollie was conscientious of angles and trying to get pictures she thought look good as well as getting photos that were important to me. She included my family and got shots that were not necessarily planned, but turned out perfect. I have now used her for all of my family photos and photos of my children ever since and don’t plan on changing that. She is amazing.

Amanda is the best photographer I’ve ever known! She did a spectacular job with my daughter’s wedding photos. She was able to put all of us at ease while she was getting us into the poses that look so natural and so beautiful. Amanda is a talented and creative photographer that has a knack for finding the beauty in everything! Michael was able to take pieces of video throughout the day that was then transformed into an absolutely stunning video for my daughter and her new husband! Every time I see the video now I cry with joy! This team is so professional and they are great communicators that they can take a sometimes stressful situation and make it fun! When you find a professional that does an excellent job, you always want to use them again. I will be using Salt Ivy photography for all my photo and video needs and will recommend them to anyone and everyone!

Introducing myself, an Atlanta-based wedding photographer with a deep passion for capturing authentic and timeless moments. I am dedicated to providing couples with a true-to-life experience, ensuring that every aspect of their special day is beautifully documented.One of the aspects I love most about my craft is the opportunity to travel.

No distance is too far to document the love and joy that unfolds during your special moments.

Kim is always my first vendor recommendation to my couples. I have worked with her on numerous personal and professional events and always am in awe once I see the galleries. She knows exactly how to capture the images/memories many don't even have words to ask for. There is nothing better than truly being able to see how your guests enjoyed the wedding, along with their unscripted , raw emotion.

Husband and wife film-influenced Wisconsin wedding photographers inspired by bold colors, powerful connection, and the magic of an unrepeatable, unplanned moment. With cameras in hand & a quote from The Office on our lips, we deliver so much more than a gallery filled with images you’ll love...though you can count on us to deliver that, too!

Olivia was super easy to work with on the wedding day. I would love to shoot with her again. She was considerate of the videographer while also getting amazing shots. She didn’t try to over control the situation or monopolize the bride and groom.

In a nutshell - I am your giddy third wheel! I’ll travel anywhere for a great love story, I believe photography should be FUN, and that it should feel like an adventure because really, it’s just us, going on a little adventure together! This is also a no pressure situation! You don’t have to know “how to pose” — this isn’t about posing at all! This is 100% about us 3 out and about together, having fun, laughing a ton, and me giving you guys prompts and direction all in the effort of eliciting a natural reaction!

I can't recommend Elizabeth Ladean Photography enough!! I've had the opportunity to work together personally and professionally many times over the years. She truly is the best in the business!! She is extremely talented as a photographer and has a knack for making you feel comfortable and at ease. She is responsive, organized, and proactive. I've worked with many wedding professionals; she has always stood out in the way she runs her business! When you work with Elizabeth you'll get gorgeous, timeless photos but also a memorable experience!! Highly recommend!!!

Photography is my absolute passion and it shines through my images when I capture them. I live for the authentic moments... the raw emotions of the day. The tears that fall during a first look, the last hug with your parents before you walk down the aisle, and the ear to ear smiles once you've said "I Do". Those are the moments I promise to capture! I blend candid and guided shots, giving you the freedom to move about the day to enjoy it, while never having the thought of “what should I be doing” running through your mind. You'll be able to look back on your wedding photos years from now and remember it for every emotion and person involved.
