Abigail Saalfrank Photography

Fort Wayne, IN
  • Classic style

  • Serves Merced, CA for additional fees

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

I absolutely love working with Abigail and her partner!! Abigail was able to not only help keep us on track and on time with all of our timeline, but also was very helpful with questions or calming our nerves. We had a blast working with her and the photographs came back perfect! I appreciated the posed pictures along with the off guard pictures as well and it truly makes me happy looking back and being able to cherish all the memories through pictures. I will always recommend Abigial and her services, I know she does beyond great work with her time and dedication to her career.

Imagine Elopements Photography

Bend, OR
  • Fine art style

  • Serves Merced, CA for additional fees

Your earth loving, sun chasing Oregon elopement photographer. My work is ever evolving but my intention is always the same: to capture the essence of who you are and create timeless photographs that will always take you back to your incredible day.

We initially planned to elope at Crater Lake, which led us to Mia and Imagine Elopements. However, as the date approached, we opted to elope at our beautiful rented property to avoid added stress. Mia was exceptional throughout the planning process. She is not only an incredibly talented photographer, but she is also friendly, attentive, and highly responsive, going above and beyond in her follow-through. Her expertise regarding Crater Lake, including permits, trails, and requirements, was impressive. She even contacted the park on our behalf to ensure everything was in order. Mia also knows the surrounding areas well and recommends trustworthy local vendors and activities geared toward our interests. Mia truly understood our vision for a stress-free, enjoyable day with our kids in a natural setting. Her flexibility (including her willingness to officiate our ceremony as well) allowed us to experience the day our way, resulting in photos that perfectly capture all of the emotions of the day. We adore the photos and relive our special day every time we look at them!

Diana Marie Photography

White House, TN
  • Classic style
  • Serves Merced, CA for additional fees

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 is incredible to work with! She respects your time and wants to make sure your day is smooth as butter and captures the most magical parts. Not only that, but I witnessed her show love and kindness in minor ways with such a massive impact on her Couple and their friends/family. She is such a kind ball of energy and light. You would be lucky to have her as a vendor on your wedding day, Christmas cards, birth, whatever it is. Consider yourself lucky to know her.

Most of Daniela's work centers around the human experience, our shared existence, and the quest for revealing the truest form of each person that she documents.

Awarded Best of Zola
The day I met Daniela, I knew she would capture our special day perfectly. Daniela was constantly in contact with us from the moment we signed a contract with her. Before we even attended our engagement photo shoot, Daniela made sure we were prepared for what to expect and sent out questionnaires to get to know us. Our engagement shoot was in the middle of winter at lake Minnewaska and those moments were captured perfectly. She was very personable and made us feel relaxed and comfortable (she even allowed our pup to be in our shoot). As the wedding started to approach, she made sure we had all of our vendors and plans were all set. Daniela was always asking how we were feeling as our big day was coming. We were not nervous at all and beyond ready for her to capture this moment. We had our last zoom call the week of the wedding and planned out our timeline and picture list. Daniela showed up with her assistant on the day of the wedding and of course, it was pouring rain (as everyone says, rain is good luck). She was flexible with the weather and made sure I was okay with any changes. We were able to get our portraits done outside because the rain had slowed down, then took family portraits inside. Daniela and her assistant followed the picture list we had created perfectly and even dealt with my crazy family lol. We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. Even though the weather did not cooperate, the pictures couldn't have come out any better. Daniela captured all of the feelings from our special day. We are beyond thankful for her and her team. Thank you for all of the happy tears!

Awarded Best of Zola
My name is Kaci Mallat, and I am the owner of Xoxo Weddings. I have had the honor of working with Alexandra on plenty of weddings. Besides the fact that you will get incredible pictures, Alexandra is what I like to call a team player. Her goal besides taking pictures is to make the day run as smoothly as possible for the couple. She helps with this in many ways. For starters, she is extremely efficient! Everyone knows that weddings days fly by quickly. She shows up, does her job, and gives a wonderful product. Second, I never have to look for her to be ready...she is ALWAYS ready! Finally, I know she has my back! As a coordinator, I look for fellow vendors that will help in times of need. Yes, we run separate businesses, but on wedding day we work for the same person....the couple!!! Hire Alexandra...you will not regret it!!!

Seattle, WA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,200
  • Serves Merced, CA for additional fees

Like most children in the late 90's and early 00's, I grew up with a camera in my hand. I went through polaroids, video cameras, disposable cameras, waterproof cameras, and film cameras; all the cameras! I was so fascinated by photography and the ability to preserve moments. I'm an ENFP, 7w6, and extroverted-introvert who is not only thrilled but humbled to be a witness and historian to the significant moments in your life we are able to share together!

Lindsey photographed my wedding in June 2017. My fiancée and I at the time were running into some vendor issues because of where we live and the fact that we are a same-sex couple, so when Lindsey wanted to have lunch with us, we were nervous to say the least. However, it was only minutes into the conversation that I knew we’d found the perfect photographer for us. Lindsey shared her personal stories with us, and made us feel like we were talking with a friend we’d known for years. Wedding days are hectic, and we had a large wedding party, but Lindsey didn’t miss a beat from start to finish. Needless to say, our pictures turned out perfect, and Lindsey was able to photograph our special day wonderfully! We still get compliments about how beautiful our photos are almost 5 years later! Lindsey was professional, empathetic, and a joy to work with. 10/10 would definitely recommend!

My visual style tends to be soft with bright lighting, earthy/vibrant tones, a shallow depth of field (blurred backgrounds and foregrounds), and a mix of prompted and candid poses.

Words can’t express how important it was for us to capture our favorite day and our love and Amber did that and more.

Hi, I'm Ricky, owner and lead photographer. Wedding planning doesn't need to be stressful. And you don't have to do it alone. I GOT YOU! You want to enjoy your big day, so I make sure you have time for just the two of you alone and I try to get you back to your cocktail hour as soon as possible so you can enjoy your friends' company. More importantly, I promise through my mix of direction and “fly on the wall” style of photography, you will feel relaxed and excited in front of my lens. All I ask of my couples is to be open-minded, open-hearted, respectful, and unapologetically YOU!! Bottom line, be exactly who you are and I will do the rest.

Welcome. I’ve been a make-up artist, chocolatier, a barista, a pet-sitter, a bartender but I’ve always been “that girl with the camera.” (I’ve also been, “that girl who sleeps on our couch” or “that girl who’s booty I saw in the newspaper” but I digress…). Currently, I base my photography business in Petaluma, CA. I grew up in Sonoma County but in my early 20’s I picked up and moved to Manitoba and that’s where I stayed for many years. Upon my return to CA in 2013 I turned my passion for photography into a career. It’s been a journey to call photography my profession, but I’ve always been a photographer and I’ve always been an artist.

Awarded Best of Zola
Loren is incredible at what she does! From our proposal, to our special day, to our maternity shoot….she was able to capture the most special moments for our family in the most beautiful way. Her attentiveness to detail, down to earth personality, and warm energy are unmatched. She has this unique ability to make the awkward posed photos light and fun and her use of angles and lighting to create special candid photos is just simply amazing! We cannot thank her enough for the stunning photos that we get to cherish for years to come. There’s no question about it, we would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a high quality photographer! We have had a blast working with her and can’t wait for our next photo shoot!

I am honored to have the opportunity to laugh…to cry…to share your love story.

Awarded Best of Zola
The first part of wedding planning for us was finding the photographer because it was the most important to me (other than the man I was marrying). I was prepared to search high and low to find the perfect photographer, but Jessica found us! After attending a wedding expo she reached out and offered her services. We met for coffee and discussed our hopes and dreams for our upcoming wedding. There was an instant connection! I told Jessica wedding photos were at the top of my priority list, because they’re what lasts forever. I can look back on those photos and remember the excitement, happiness, and pure joy of marrying the man of my dreams. I told her I was looking for someone to capture the little moments along with the big. Jessica promised us everything we asked for and, man oh man, she delivered!!! I cannot speak highly enough of her. Every part of the process was made simple because of her organization and talent. Every communication we had was prompt, thoughtful, and respectful. She listened to our wishes, offered her expertise, and created unbelievable results!! Jessica and her assistant (Crystal) were fun to be around and made our sessions with them fly by. They made sure every detail was picture-perfect… even during our freezing cold outdoor engagement session. If anyone asks me for a photographer, Jessica is the name I give, every single time. She signed on to do our wedding, but we are now her clients for life because no one will compare to the incredible job she does. Let me squash any doubts you have and help you with the best decision you’ll make when it comes to finding a photographer… just hire Jessica Yahn!! We are forever grateful to have crossed paths with her!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I have a unique experience because I've had both Noelle & DJ! I originally booked Noelle in June or July 2022 for November 2023. We had a beautiful engagement shoot with our package in September, and got an email in November about a mix up with another couple's (who had booked before us) venue giving the wrong date, and were given the option to keep Noelle or have DJ shoot our wedding at the associate rate with an extra engagement shoot with DJ. I was super stressed about what to do as DJ was newer to NTCo at the time, but it truly *didn't matter* because the truth is, whoever you work with, you're going to get the same quality experience. From a personality standpoint, both DJ & Noelle have upbeat personalities that will put you at ease. From an administrative standpoint, various detailed surveys and timelines were put together to make sure the day ran as smoothly as possible. From a photo standpoint - pictures, regardless of the photographer, are taken in the same style and edited the same way. I haven't gotten my full wedding album back yet because it was recent, but I was very happy with both of our engagement shoots as well as our wedding sneak peaks. The bottom line is, you can see the portfolios and pricing on your own, but as someone who has been a bride working with these wonderful people, I can attest that you will have a quality experience working with NTCo!

Chris with Shipwrecked Creative helped capture our wedding day perfectly! The planning before the wedding was quite rushed as we booked just few months before the big day, but he helped coordinate our meetings and plan everything out, so we were on the same page. He was very responsive and detailed with everything. The questionnaire he sent us made it super easy to give him all the right information, so he didn’t need to ask 100 questions on the phone or via email. We had a very rainy day with few moments that the sun was shining. Chris helped us capture every moment perfectly. He guided our poses so it wasn’t awkward or unnatural, kept us laughing along the way, and helped us coordinate our timeline to fit in all our family photos, sunset photos (that miraculously worked out with the weather!) and portrait shots that we wanted of our big day. Between the chaos of the wedding in general and the crappy weather, Chris helped us really make our day special, even trekking out in the mud and rain to get some amazing sunset shots! I highly recommend Chris and his team at Shipwrecked Creative. Couldn’t ask for a better team!

She even saved us a huge disappointment by checking the time of sunset on our wedding day (it was the day before daylight savings time) on our first conversation! Had she not, we wouldn’t have known to move our wedding time up by an hour and we would’ve had all of our pictures in the dark! That was a major catch! She was so easy to work with, always made herself available to answer questions, and was totally on point on our wedding day. She stuck to our day-of schedule, made sure we got all of the pictures we wanted within the timeframe, directed us on how to pose and overall was a pleasure to work with. On a day that could be really stressful, we were totally at ease with her. I would hire her a million more times over!

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.

My heart burns with a fierce and undeniable love for photography. It's a passion that runs deep, rooted in the belief that every image has the power to speak to the soul and evoke emotions that can't be put into words. My love for capturing moments behind the lens encompasses all aspects of life. It's these moments of raw and genuine connection that ignite my soul and drive my creativity. Because to me, a photograph is not just about being aesthetically pleasing or technically perfect. It's about capturing the essence of a moment, the emotions that can't be replicated, and the stories waiting to be told.

"I can go on and on about the beautiful images that Dominque captured on my special day. The passion, love and effort she puts into her work; the talent that is evident in each photo she takes; her ability to capture moments (small and big)...the list could go on and on. I want to focus on what made working with Dominique so special to me. She is real. She is goofy. She is present. She is kind. She is fun. She makes you feel comfortable and beautiful and seen. Despite the chaos that is inevitable (atleast for me) on my very special day, she managed to remain focused on the joy in my friends and families faces, on the little kids frolicking down the grassy aisle, on the energy that exploded on the dance floor and most importantly on the true love that she captured in each photo with me and my husband. One of my best friends and bridesmaids said it best, 'she clearly knows what she is doing', just see for yourself. These pictures feel timeless and my gratitude to her is endless. So much love for her."

I am also a dog mom and I love animals in general, my puppy means the world to me! I am a dedicated, passionate, fun and caring person and I put love in everything I do. I can't wait to work with you!

I can’t explain how happy I am with Jenni’s work! I didn’t only love the results but I really appreciate how much she helped during the ceremony, especially by setting the livestream up so my family and friends from Brazil could watch this special moment. They also made us feel comfortable in front of the cameras, since we both are a little awkward in front of cameras haha Can’t forget to mention how nice and fun they were with everyone and this is very special to me! Thank you for making us look so hot on the pictures hahaha we love and appreciate your work!

That’s also how we spent our wedding day, and most other significant, life-altering moments in our relationship. We fundamentally believe that the best day of your life should be spent doing what makes your heart sing. You’re not here because you don’t care about your day, you’re here because you care more. You don’t want the ordinary and traditional. You want care more about experiences rather than material possessions. You want the authentic, intimate, and intentional day which focuses on YOU as a couple.

Natalie and Anton were fantastic. They were super easy to work with and made us feel very comfortable with all things COVID. Our wedding was smaller than originally planned and they just made working with them so easy. They did a fantastic job the day off and we got our pictures back way sooner than I expected. They are great!! Can’t wait to work with them again next year.

San Rafael, CA

  • Serves Merced, CA for additional fees

I have been professionally capturing images for over 10 years. During that time, I built a successful promotional marketing company in Canada, received my MBA in Ireland, and moved to the San Francisco Bay Area with my wife. My favorite part about photography are the stories that are captured, the frozen moments in time that each picture highlights. Over the course of my career, I have been asked to tell thousands of stories. With the ability to operate in the United States, Canada, and Europe, I’m no stranger to traveling for a good story.

Harrison surpassed our expectations with his close attention to detail, capturing every moment beautifully. We're a slightly awkward couple, but he was professional and made us very comfortable taking our formals after the ceremony. Highly reccommend for those in search of a very talented photographer who is great with people.

We feel so lucky to have found Andrew as our wedding photographer. He has an incredible eye for the editorial style and makes his photos into works of art with golden light and chiaroscuro. So many photographers just rely on their high-res equipment but don't offer anything more--I don't want a macro shot of every pore or line on my face like an owl in a tree at 100 yards, I want to have a sense of magic and beauty in every photo. Andrew actually does that. I almost cried when I saw our first look photos because I don't feel very confident being photographed and I finally had dozens of photos of myself and my husband that I want to share with friends immediately and cherish forever. He delivered the first look so fast, even though I know he was busy working another wedding; I thought for sure we would have to wait longer. The wedding package we chose included very nice touches like polaroids so we had something in hand at the end of the wedding day itself, too. It was very thoughtful and left us feeling good about the whole experience right away. He was very personal and nice to work with, but not intrusive, and went with the little schedule changes we had, and was open to suggestions while we took post-ceremony photos around the city. I couldn't be happier with our experience with him and would recommend him highly to anyone looking for a real artist for their wedding photography.

SUGAR RUSH ! WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT 2 PEOPLE WHO CAPTURED ME AND MY HUSBANDS SPECIAL DAY SO PERFECTLY? I MET LYNDI WHEN SHE SHOT ME AND MY SISTERS SENIOR PICTURES . I LOVED THE IMAGES SO MUCH I KNEW WHO I WANTED TO SHOOT MY WEDDING ! 2 YEARS LATER I WAS ENGAGED AND ME AND JORD TALKED WITH ROB AND LYNDI AT A FAMILY MEMBERS WEDDING THEY WERE SHOOTING . WE KNEW AFTER SPENDING TIME WITH THEM THEY WOULD BE A GOOD FIT FOR US . IT’S IMPORTANT TO BE ABLE TO VIBE WITH YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER / VIDEOGRAPHER SO YOU CAN REALLY EXPLAIN WHAT YOU WANT AND THEY CAN READ YOUR RELATIONSHIP AND PUT THAT FEELING INTO THE FINISHED PRODUCT. I FELL IN LOVE WITH ROBS WORK WHEN I SAW THE FIRST LOOK VIDEO HE HAD DONE FOR THIS FAMILY WEDDING . A FEW WEEKS LATER ME AND JORD DECIDED ‘ HEY LET’S GET MARRIED IN HAWAII CAUSE WHY NOT?! ‘ ….AND LET’S HAVE ROB AND LYNDI COME WITH US ! LET ME TELL YOU IT WAS WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY! FROM OUR ENGAGEMENTS AND LOVE STORY VIDEO TO THE FIRST LOOK AND RECEPTION ,WE ARE IN LOVE WITH THE WAY OUR LOVE WAS CAPTURED. WE WANTED TO USE THE SAME PHOTO/VIDEO PEOPLE THROUGHOUT OUR EXPERIENCE TO ENSURE THE COVERAGE FLOWED NICELY TOGETHER . WE ALSO WANTED TO DO OUR DESTINATION WEDDING WITH PEOPLE WE TRUSTED . WE FLEW PEOPLE OUT WHO WE HAD A CONNECTION WITH, RATHER THAN FIND SOMEONE NEW ON THE ISLAND, AND WE ARE SO HAPPY WE DID IT THAT WAY! ROB AND LYNDI WERE INCREDIBLE TO WORK WITH THEY ARE SO TALENTED BUT ALSO SO FUN TO BE AROUND. THEY MAKE BEING PHOTOGRAPHED AND RECORDED A BETTER EXPERIENCE . I THINK THE BEST PART ABOUT OUR EXPERIENCE WITH SUGAR RUSH IS HOW THEY PERFECTLY CAPTURED ME AND MY HUSBANDS RELATIONSHIP AND THE FEELING OF OUR WEDDING DAY. THEY TRULY GOT THE ESSENCE OF WHO WE ARE AND THAT MEANS SO MUCH ! ONE LAST THING . YOU WILL NEVER REGRET GETTING A WEDDING VIDEO DONE . EVER ! A LOT OF PEOPLE DON’T REALIZE HOW IMPORTANT VIDEO IS AND HOW MUCH YOU WILL WANT ONE AFTER THE DAY IS OVER . TO ME MY WEDDING VIDEO IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS MY PHOTOS . I GET TO RELIVE THE HAPPIEST DAY OF MY LIFE ANYTIME I WANT AND I CRY EVERY TIME I WATCH IT. PHOTO CAPTURES THE INDIVIDUAL MOMENTS AND VIDEO CAPTURES THE ENTIRE DAY. THEY ARE BOTH ESSENTIAL AND ROB AND LYNDI WILL NOT DISAPPOINT! WE LOVE SUGAR RUSH AND EVERYTHING THEY DO ! THANK YOU ROB AND LYNDI! LOVE, YOUR HAWAII COUPLE JOJO & LOLO

Words cannot express my appreciation for Alisa Sue photography. I wanted the best of the best for photography for my wedding and I came across Alisa Sue and stalked her Instagram for quite some time before finally booking - they were absolutely INCREDIBLE to work with, so easy to get along with, so pleasant, so fun and the photos - ugh - to die for. Timeless and beautiful. My now husband and I are so awkward in photos and Alisa Sue made us feel so natural and comfortable. I truly hate pictures and getting my picture taken and she was by my side every step of the way cheering me on. There is no one else you should book with, besides Alisa Sue! She is now my go-to photographer for everything in life - I can’t thank her enough for making our special day that much more special!

We are all here for you. All your family, your friends and I (yes, me too!) are here to honor you on your wedding day! As excited as I am to get to the dancefloor with you guys, I know a lot of planning goes into making your day special. As your photographer, I’ve been to a few weddings and am just a call or text away from any insight you might want. I approach every wedding with the same mentality, how can I tell the story of today in the most real way possible? I’ve found the best way to do that is to just be me. I allow myself to be present and listen to the stories unfold throughout the day.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were so pleased with using Gabe for our wedding photography. His work speaks for itself - beautiful compositions and use of light, and the ability to capture quick moments and candid shots. I felt super comfortable with Gabe which was very important to me because I'm camera-shy and awkward. He was very down to earth and easy to work with. Also, though he is based in PA he traveled to NY for our wedding and did an amazing job. We even travelled to PA for an engagement session, which I initially had no plans on doing - but those photos came out great as well and we had a lot of fun doing those to get warmed up. Strongly recommend Gabe, he's the best!

For as long as I can remember I have always loved to create. My passion for photography started when I was a teen. As I honed in on my craft I began to photograph on a more professional level right out of high school, but stepped away for academic pursuits. After completing both a bachelors and master's degree in Anthropology, I came full circle, determining that a career in doing something creative was where my heart lies. Whether it is your wedding, or any other special moment in your life, I cherish the opportunity to document it in a way that highlights the artistic elements, while still capturing an authenticness that is uniquely you.

Picking a wedding photographer is hard, when I found Alyssa I knew she was the one! She is so incredibly kind made me feel so comfortable. She is very accommodating and very helpful from the moment you start planning. This goes for my wedding and my engagement session. I can’t thank Alyssa and Sam enough for how beautifully they captured my wedding. They will forever be loved by me!
