PHOTOS YOU CAN FEEL! We believe in the magic of the unscripted—the belly laughs, the happy tears, and every quiet vibration in between. Our documentary-style approach allows your day to unfold naturally. We capture your story in its most organic form—focusing on real interactions without stiff, awkward posing. If you’ve been searching for a blend of artistry and authenticity, you’ve found it.

I looked at a LOT of wedding photographers. There are a lot of people out there who do beautiful photos, but none really felt like a fit for us -- either the photo style was moodier/sexier than I thought we could pull off, or the price was too steep for the amount of hours we wanted to have the photographer available, or photos felt too “posed” and cookie-cutter. Then we found Randy. The first thing I noticed about Randy’s portfolio is that people were smiling and laughing. You’d be surprised how few photographers feature photos that look joyful! The second thing I noticed is that photos weren’t all the same; different couples had different looks and styles. I felt like I was learning something about the couple by their photos. When we contacted Randy, we discovered that his work was not only in budget, but that his pricing included a full day of wedding photos – no matter how many hours the day lasted! Our package included engagement photos, wedding photos, a small album, and we added a photobooth for the wedding day. Our engagement session and wedding ended up being two years apart (thanks, COVID) and Randy did an incredible job with both! The engagement shoot gave us a great sense of how Randy works and got us accustomed with posing. What I most appreciated was the fact that Randy caught the moments in between the poses – where my husband and I were laughing with one another or sharing a special moment. For the wedding photos, Randy joined me a little bit before 9 am and was with us until the reception ended at 11 pm! He had a second photographer there during most of that time, as well. I really wanted to capture the joy of finally being able to be together with family and getting to celebrate. After nearly three years of being engaged, I was determined to make the day as stress-free as possible and just enjoy myself. Randy picked up on our joyful, relaxed mood right off the bat and gave us the photos of our dreams! Our photos are bright and colorful (although he picks wonderful photos to do in B&W) and full of laughter, big smiles, and happy tears. Every part of the day is beautifully captured, but we are especially fond of the candid joy in our reception pictures. He got such wonderful shots of our guests that we sent everyone a photo in their thank you cards! If you want wedding photos that feel like you, your partner, and your loved ones, I cannot recommend Randy enough. He is professional, easy to work with, and so talented. We are so grateful to have found him!

We had an amazing experience working with Pluvia Studios as our wedding photographer and videographer. He was incredibly intentional and truly listened to the shots and edits we wanted, which made the final video feel so personal and meaningful. Especially since our wedding was at different locations in San Francisco, Presidio, and our local church, I loved how our package cohesively looked natural, fresh and beautiful. During our first intake call he was concise and walked through the package we were interested in. We were in awe by the timeless and beautiful photo gallery and videos we received that we’ll cherish for a lifetime.

Lindsay Stayton Photography LLC 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,900
  • Serves Dodgeville, WI

Lindsay Stayton began her career in the photography industry in 2008. Her first gig was photographing The Worlds Largest Music Festival, Summerfest. In 2010, Lindsay was asked to photographed her first wedding after a couple stated "If you can photograph Flava Flave, then you can most definitely photograph our wedding!" Most couples have requested Lindsay to continue capturing life’s candid moments for their growing families, which led to her tag line: “Your Family Historian”. Lindsay has a distinct and unique style which captures real human emotion and candid moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
It’s honestly hard to capture in words just how incredible Lindsay is—not only as a photographer, but as a person. From the moment we first connected with her, it was clear she didn’t just see her role as “taking pictures.” She understood what our day was truly about: love, connection, and community. That perspective came through in every single interaction and every single image. When we were prioritizing our wedding budget, we knew photography would be at the very top. We decided to skip a videographer and planner and crossed our fingers that the photos would tell our story in the way we dreamed. Choosing Lindsay was without a doubt the best decision we could have made. Her talent, dedication, and passion shine through in a way that makes it clear she should never be considered “just another vendor.” She is a true artist, and worth every single penny. One of the biggest reasons we chose Lindsay was the diversity of couples she showcased in her portfolio. It meant so much to see ourselves reflected in her work, and it reassured us that she could capture the beauty, uniqueness, and authenticity of every couple’s love story. From start to finish, Lindsay gave us everything we could have asked for and then more. She guided us through engagement photos that were stunning and full of personality, and then on our wedding day, she showed up prepared, energized, and completely present. She not only took photos—she kept the day flowing. She helped us plan the timing of the schedule, moved groups seamlessly for portraits, and brought a sense of calm and confidence that allowed us to simply enjoy being in the moment. She even connected us with other vendors, showing how much she genuinely cares about her couples’ experiences beyond just the photos. And the photos themselves? Breathtaking. They are stunning, timeless, endearing, and true to the moment. She captured the big, emotional highlights of the day while also finding those in-between moments we didn’t even realize were happening—moments that make the memories so much richer. Our family and friends have been floored, with so many saying things like, “I never thought I could look that good in a picture” or “I can’t believe she managed to capture me actually smiling!” Lindsay has a gift for seeing people as they are and reflecting back their truest, most joyful selves. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the day in the most beautiful way possible. These are the images we will share with family for years to come. Lindsay didn’t just document our wedding—she became part of the story, and the photos she gave us are part of our family history now. That’s why we know we’ll be returning to her for all of our future photography needs. She isn’t just a photographer; she’s a family historian, and we couldn’t be more grateful that she was the one to capture this chapter of our lives.

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!

Hey there! I'm Eric, an outdoor-loving, laid-back wedding photographer based in the Midwest who lives for capturing those real, unfiltered moments that make each love story unique. When I'm not behind the camera, you'll probably find me hiking trails or discovering new local breweries. My approach blends documentary-style storytelling with a touch of editorial flair—meaning I'll capture both those candid laughs during toasts and those naturally romantic moments during golden hour. The best photos happen when couples feel completely at ease and free to be themselves.

I’m someone who usually avoids being in photos and never let anyone, not even my partner, take pictures of me. But working with Eric completely changed that. Quinn and I were blown away by our photos. The entire experience felt effortless, like hanging out with a friend. Eric is incredibly laid-back and easygoing, which made the session so enjoyable. If you’re camera-shy or nervous about having your photo taken, I can’t recommend Eric enough. You won’t regret it.

The quality of Erik's work as a photographer is unparalleled. He truly captured the "light, bright, airy" aesthetic that I loved when I first started researching different styles. He is highly detailed oriented which is a must for somebody like me who really notices all the little details. He went above and beyond by traveling to our engagement shooting location all the way in Madison, WI! When it came to shooting the big day, Erik orchestrated everything perfectly including calming me down during a stressful moment, making us all laugh, and capturing all the "good angles". From the first few photos I received, his work made me feel absolutely beautiful.

I am the heart and soul behind Dakota Layne Photo. Based in western Wisconsin, my love for photography started as a seven-year-old girl as the flower girl in a family wedding and has now become an extension of who I am. I approach my clients from a place of empathy - understanding who they are, what is important to them, and how I can bring their story to life in a significant and meaningful way.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment I inquired with Dakota, she was prompt. We instantly jumped on a call and we literally talked for a hour! I instantly knew she was going to be our photographer! Throughout the planning process, she consistently reached out to check in. Her thoughtful and uplifting voice messages were such a light midst the stresses of wedding planning. I would get so excited when I saw her name pop up on my phone, her bubbly personality and genuine care in her messages meant everything to us!! Our engagement photo day was a scorcher--95 degrees and pure sun!! But Dakota made the absolute best of it, even as we took breaks to cool down. Despite the sweat and crazy heat, our photos turned our magazine worthy--seriously stunning!! In the weeks leading up to the wedding she checked in almost daily, which was so reassuring. Her online website and questionnaire were very thorough and incredibly helpful. At one point, I even called her to vent about a difficult wedding situation (that had nothing to do with her), and she listened and reassured me through it all! She is truly a wedding industry professional!! On our wedding day, her presence was incredibly pleasant and everything flowed perfect. We fell a bit behind due to hair and makeup, and she continued to reassure me that we would be just fine. Her photography style is absolutely stunning, with great attention to detail that captured every important moment for us. We received our sneak peeks just a day or two after the wedding which was one of my favorite memories ever!!-- getting to reminisce on the stunning photos with my now husband on our first day of our honeymoon. It meant the world to us! The full gallery was delivered within the timeframe discussed in our contract as promised, I even had a few questions about different angles and additional photos and she delivered on all of my requests. Her gallery website was very easy to use and share. Overall we had a 1000/10 experience with having Dakota as our wedding photographer. Not only is she an incredibly talented photographer, but she is also so personable and was one of the best decisions and investments we have ever made! When it is your special day, you want to be surrounded by the absolute best, and that is Dakota!!

Steff was fabulous to work with. I struggled to create my shot list and Steff had prepared ideas and poses so we could match and follow her lead easily. She got us our sneak peeks so quickly.

Photography has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. What started as a childhood passion grew into a lifelong pursuit of storytelling through images. I’m based in both Union, Illinois, and Florida, which allows me to capture weddings in a variety of beautiful settings. When I’m not behind the camera, I’m gardening, traveling, or spending time with my partner, Kenny, and our three pets. My work has been featured in many publications, but what truly drives me is creating honest, meaningful imagery for my couples—photos that will live on as part of their legacy.

Megan was fantastic to work with! I saw her work through some friends and really didn’t want to hire anyone but her for our wedding. She captured everything we hoped for and more. Her attention to detail and making sure each shot and setup was perfect really showed her passion. I highly recommend Megan for any photographic needs you may have!

Bonnie has had a camera in her hands since high school. What began as a quiet fascination with documenting life turned into a calling when she photographed her first wedding in 2017. Bonnie believes that some of the most meaningful moments in life are often the most fleeting, but photography gives us the rare gift of remembering them forever. Her approach centers on presence over perfection, leaving room for genuine laughter, quiet tenderness, and unscripted joy to unfold naturally. Her mission is to document your most cherished memories - the joy, the vulnerability, the celebration - to create photographs that become lasting heirlooms.

Bonnie is such a gem, we had so much fun working with her! During our engagement shoot and wedding day, we were constantly laughing and just having a ball, she made us feel completely comfortable. Bonnie is chill, down-to-earth, friendly, and so much fun. She had great suggestions and was down with our ideas, too. We're extremely appreciative of her communication, transparency, and flexibility, and we can't wait to hopefully work with her again for family photos! Could not recommend her highly enough, she's the best!
