Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Isaac’s photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking.

They weren’t just photographers, they felt like friends. They made the whole process fun and easy. We laughed so much while taking the pictures, and you can see it in the final shots.

The video is absolutely incredible, edited so perfectly with music that made me cry. They captured the real essence of the day, not just posed shots.

Those are often the memories couples cherish the most.

I have the coolest job in the world: I create emotional time capsules for my couples (and hopefully you too). That way, you get to be fully present on your wedding day and you get to relive that day over and over again with the same intensity, joy and love. My not-so-secret sauce is this: I get to know you. I find out what makes you and your lover tick, and then, I craft a visual story that's reflective of you. My utmost goal is to create joyful imagery for folks who want things documented exactly as they felt.

There are only good things to say about working with Maggie! We booked her for our engagement photos as well as for our wedding day. During the engagement session, she captured some true gems by helping us stay comfortable and true to ourselves. Leading up to our wedding day she was communicative, made sure she understood what our vision/priorities were, and worked well with our planner. On our wedding day, she was so fun to work with, got some beautiful shots of the big moments, and some incredible shots of little ones, too. Even just in our sneak peaks from our wedding, there are so many lovely candids amidst well-placed staged family/couple shots. She has great vision and good ideas and is fun to be around for the process! Regardless, her work speaks for itself. We highly recommend booking Maggie for your engagement and wedding photos!!

I’m AnaGabriele (Ana), and the owner of Unearthed Photographical! My partner and I have been photographing weddings since 2016, when two upcoming brides I’d gone to high school with, saw that I was still taking photos and asked me to photograph their big days! Those two events made me realize how much I absolutely love wedding photography. Since then, we’ve honed in on our craft, learning how to make the process as smooth as possible for all of our clients. We love riding out on the Harley, crafting, and hanging out with our toddlers.

Ana was so wonderful to work with. She made my daughter and son in laws day just perfect. We love her style. She captured every moment. I would highly recommend her.

Being behind the camera isn’t just about clicking a button and editing a photo and delivering it. It’s about making sure you capture each and every detail even if the couple doesn’t realize it. I’ve become passionate in what I do because I love the smiles that it puts on people’s faces and the happy tears that stream down their face when I deliver the most beautiful album that they get to hold on to for the rest of their lives. True love is real. Capturing my couples is like bringing a romance novel to life.

Marylyn, owner of Momentous Memories, has been my go-to girl for YEARS!! She never disappoints!! She knows just how to capture the most amazing moments and love between two people. Her photography is stunning and she creates such a fun environment to be in! My husband does not like having his picture taken, but she knew exactly how to get him to open up and pose for pictures. She was great at communicating throughout the pre-wedding process and ensuring that she knew how our day was going to go. Even though on our day it poured down rain, Marylyn worked her magic and created an album of the most breathtaking photos. I will always highly recommend her to anyone I know!

Her eye is incredible, her turnaround time is lightning fast, and her images are pure magic. She sees the emotion, the atmosphere, the small in-between moments, and translates them into art that feels cinematic and deeply personal.
