Maria was amazing from start to finish! When we did our initial engagement shoot she made us feel so comfortable, and my husband and I are both introverted. She responded immediately every time we communicated with her and was very thorough with all our wants for the big day. I could go on and on… but the short version is just book her already!

I love photographing weddings and being around people. On your wedding day, that shows up as someone who remembers people’s names, keeps things fun, and knows exactly when to wrangle misbehaving bridal parties and family members to where the need to be. You don’t need to know how to pose or what to do when the camera is pointed your way. That’s what I’m for. I’ll give you some great prompts that will result in you laughing, kissing, cuddling, and generally forgetting you’re having your photo taken. The result is a beautiful gallery of wedding photos with connection and emotion that feel just like you.

From the moment we first spoke with Jason Hines, we knew we had found our wedding photographer. His communication was excellent and he responded quickly to all of our questions. Jason's professional, detail-oriented approach was evident in the high-quality photos he captured of our special day. He was there to document every important moment, from the ceremony to the reception, ensuring we have beautiful memories to cherish. Jason's patience and respect put us at ease, and he expertly guided us through poses to create stunning portraits. We are thrilled with the results and couldn't imagine our wedding day without Jason's incredible talent behind the lens.

My gift with the camera is capturing the beauty of the moment. I love telling stories through pictures to keep memories alive, using the click of a shutter to make time stand still. I was inspired to become a photographer when I was young, before the days of digital cameras and cell phones. My eye for photography was first developed along side film, and this fascination set me off to see what I could do with light and lenses. The images you see today are the results of my long, passionate love affair with the camera, developed by life's most precious resource: time.

Awarded Best of Zola
Mary made my proposal literally perfect. She was extremely professional, and communication was easy. She pretended to be a tourist taking photographs and played the part perfectly. Then, when we started taking actual photos, she was very well prepared and guided us through all different poses. My now fiance was so pleased and happy. Of the photos that she has shared with us, the edits are incredible. A few friends said “this is actually the coolest photo I have ever seen”. Thanks Mary!

Hi, I'm Candace and I have a thing for weddings! I didn't start as a wedding photographer, I actually started as a BIRTH photographer surprisingly! I was addicted to capturing real and raw moments for families to have and relive over and over. I actually was nervous for weddings, which is why I didn't start doing them. One thing led to another and as people started asking me if I WOULD shoot their wedding, I decided to give it a try. Fast-forward to dozens and dozens of weddings later and I am obsessed!! I am a full fledged wedding photographer and I LOVE capturing every single moment of your day. The addiction is real!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Candace is AMAZING! We had her photograph our engagement and wedding photos. She was a YES right away because she was immediately happy to capture us with our fur baby for engagement photos! Fast forward to wedding day, ALL of the photos were SO SO SO beautiful, carefully crafted detail shots, and just so perfect! Candace throughout both events was super friendly and personable, but still professional. She was amazing at corralling our large families for group photos, and seamlessly moving around the wedding day, and capturing everything! We liked how she sent a questionnaire a few weeks ahead of the wedding to ask us about minor details that she might not be aware of, and any photo inspiration to make sure we were on the same page. My husband and I love all of the photos Candace took and are so excited to have them forever! We are so grateful Candace was our photographer and you won't regret working with her!!! 3

Your wedding photographer should be a perfect mix of a fly-on-the-wall and a director. Not someone who’s going to yell cut during your ceremony or give you exact directions on how to deliver your vows, but someone who will guide you on this super important day and deliver the photos you’ve been dreaming of. Whether it’s through my specific formulas for creating ideal timelines or managing your family for hassle-free group photos, you’ll experience this direction throughout wedding planning (Pre-Production), your wedding day (Principal Photography), and delivery (Post-Production).

Working with Maya as our wedding photographer was an incredible delight! She has so much enthusiasm that it is impossible not to feel at ease and smile when working with her, even when you feel awkward taking lovey dovey photos! She is understanding and flexible, we had a few scheduling snafus on my end and she still made the effort to meet with us. She took amazing photos at our wedding and was incredibly efficient. I got to fully enjoy my wedding and cocktail hour without having to stop for a million photos, which was wonderful. My family loved her as well, she took charge and got everyone where they needed to be, right on cue. She takes the most amazing candid photos, which was one of the reasons I was drawn to her work in the first place. I adore Maya and hope I get to work with her again for all my professional photography needs.

She even knew the venue we were renting and helped me understand what to expect so I could plan with ease! Adriana was always available to schedule a call with & was so patient with my communication through a busy summer! She was even willing to book last minute bridals following our wedding weekend to make our dreams come true of capturing the Teton scenery (not to mention, her immaculate vibes during the shoot!).

I cannot thank Brittany enough for the amazing work she did on our wedding and engagement photos. She is so passionate about her work and I feel like that shows in her photography. To say that I was stunned when she brought us a tablet with at least dozen photos she had already edited while we were eating dinner at the reception would be an understatement. She is so thoughtful when it comes to her clients and made us so comfortable while we were posing for portraits. If I could give her a million stars I would. In the weeks leading up to the wedding she was very attentive and responsive no matter what I was messaging her about. Not only do I love her work, but I love her as a person. She is kind, thoughtful and caring. She is more than you could hope for in a wedding photographer and she will capture your day and memories in a way that you will cherish.

From start to finish, he was the epitome of professionalism, keeping a calm and collected demeanor throughout the entire day, even when unexpected changes to the schedule arose. His ability to adapt on the fly and still capture every perfect moment was truly impressive. We were especially grateful for the attention to detail he showed, not just in the photos, but in his approach to the whole day. He took the time to understand our vision our minimalist, black-and-white, old Hollywood vibe and truly brought it to life. The sneak peek photos are absolutely stunning and look like something straight out of a magazine! He captured every moment exactly how we imagined it, down to the finest details. He fulfilled my Pinterest board dreams. Beyond his incredible photography skills, Ricky was also such a warm and welcoming presence. He made an effort to connect with our parents and made sure everyone felt at ease, which was especially important on such a significant day. His thoughtful communication extended beyond just the wedding day he helped us create a day-of timeline and was in touch with our other vendors beforehand to ensure everything flowed seamlessly. When it came to the photos, the turnaround was incredibly fast! We were blown away by the sneak peeks, which we received much sooner than expected. It’s clear that he takes great pride in his work and is committed to delivering high-quality results. We feel incredibly lucky to have had Ricky capture our special day. If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also attentive, organized, and truly invested in your vision, Ricky is the one to hire. He helped make our wedding day unforgettable.

Hey there! You're probably overwhelmed with all the wedding information out there, but don't worry, you're not alone & I'm here to help! I'm a seasoned wedding photographer who is ready to document one of the biggest days of your life so you'll have beautiful memories to look back years! I believe in capturing moments as they happen and I love being able to share in the love of two individuals and feel blessed to work with wonderful people each day! How important is choosing a photographer? What will your family and friends remember 10....30 years after that special day?

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked Estelle Marie Photography for our engagement shoot and our wedding in March of 2024. Marie was the first photographer we spoke to when exploring our options and our minds always told us “yeah, but they’re not Estelle Marie”. That’s how we knew we made the right choice. Marie is extremely easy to work with and endlessly talented. She has a great mind for photography and seems to vision photos before they exist. What’s equally remarkable is her ability to share her vision by capturing the photo she envisioned. Our guests were awestruck at the photo preview that Estelle Marie Photography offers. Imagine previewing your wedding ceremony photos at your wedding reception. Estelle Marie does that, while still capturing the intimate moments like the post-ceremony photoshoot and signing your license and such. Do not hesitate to book Marie. We used her for our wedding and she’s our number one option for everything life has in store for us in our married life!

If I could give her 10 stars, I would! We first hired Isabella to do our engagement shoot in September and she was able to book us with only about a week or two notice as my husband (fiance at the time) didn't live in town and we were trying to go on his schedule. She was wonderful at helping us pick a location, directing us, and making us feel comfortable as this was our first time taking photos together. Isabella absolutely nailed our engagement shoot and got us a great amount of photos back (with variety) after just one week. We then hired her to do our micro wedding only 4 months later in January, and I cannot be happier with what she delivered. Again, she was great to coordinate/communicate with when scheduling and very clear on her packages. During our wedding she was wonderful at directing and giving us ideas for how to pose. We flew up to Sedona and took pictures at the airport and I loved how up for adventure she was! She got back to us within 3 weeks with a TON of pictures. She absolutely captured our day perfectly and I cannot be more grateful for the beautiful photos she delivered. We will cherish these photos and memories forever and will be hiring her for any photography needs moving forward. If you live in AZ, hire this girl!

I photograph with the understanding that one day, these images will become part of a family’s most treasured history. Long after the day has passed, they will hold the light, the emotion, and the quiet beauty that words cannot. My approach is rooted in presence—observing with care, honoring what unfolds naturally, and preserving the fleeting moments that often matter most. I believe photographs should do more than document how things looked; they should return you to how it felt to be there, surrounded by love, meaning, and connection.

We couldn’t imagine trusting anyone other than Mykenzie!!! I even checked with her before booking our wedding date just to be sure she was available because I knew that no matter what came up, she would save the day… and she absolutely did. We’ve booked Mykenzie for couples photos, family photos with our dogs, our engagement, and now our wedding, and every single experience has been incredible. She makes each session feel effortless, comfortable, and genuinely fun, and it truly shows in the photos. From start to finish, she captures beautiful, authentic moments while making you feel completely at ease. We can never thank her enough for documenting so many of our memories so perfectly, and we can’t wait to book with her again!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
After researching several photographer options in the area, the moment we came across Briana's Instagram page, we fell in love with her work. We were looking for a photographer who focused on bold, crisp pictures with some black-and-white photos sprinkled throughout the gallery, and that is exactly what we got. As soon as we sent our inquiry, Briana reached out promptly to set up an initial meeting with her. I love how she wants to make sure she is a good fit for her couples, the same way we look for a photographer that is a good fit for us. She was very detailed and responded to all our questions promptly. She continuously checked in during the planning process to see if we needed any help or any vendor recommendations, which was much appreciated. On the day of the wedding, she made sure to get all our must-have shots. Having her be prepared and organized with those was one last thing we had to worry about. After the wedding, we got our sneak peek and full galleries on time (actually earlier than expected), and she continued to keep us updated on her editing progress. My husband and I highly recommend Briana Lee Photography for all your photography needs. Although we are out of town, we would definitely travel to work with her again.

Hello there! My name is Lisa, I am the owner of Krone Galleries. I have been providing portrait & wedding photography service throughout the Phoenix valley & Northern Arizona regions for over 15 years, and loving every moment of it! My style of photography consists of ambient & natural light sources, with a elegant airy vibe, in both controlled & candid moments. While I work closely with other photographers for large events, I generally photograph events myself, to stay more artistically focused on the moments & keeping my rates reasonable.

Lisa's photographs posted on her website enticed us to select her for our wedding. Lisa far exceeded our expectations. She took a simple thought and turned it into a poetic presentation. We could not be happier with the outcomes and Lisa ensured to capture the most perfect pictures to memorialize our special day.

I’m a born and raised Southern California girl and am now based out of Chandler, Arizona. I've been married to my husband for over 10 years and we have 2 beautiful daughters together. I've been photographing weddings for over 10 years now and love it more than ever. What I love about photography and especially wedding photography is how I’m able to connect with myself and others. I believe that your soul knows when it’s onto something good. Brings a new meaning to the term “soulmate” doesn’t it? That’s why I’m so passionate about creating art with you and your loved ones in mind.

Alyssa Ryan Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding day. I have had the privilege of knowing Alyssa for quite a few years, and she is always so kind, professional, and prompt in her communication. Her work is truly breathtaking - she has a gift for capturing such personal moments. Alyssa made the photography process so easy and fun, and she has an incredible ability to make anyone feel at ease in front of the camera. In addition to our wedding day, Alyssa has photographed our engagement, rehearsal, and even some special equestrian moments for us in the past. We will always have Alyssa photograph our future life events, as she is truly an exceptional photographer and a wonderful person.

My love for photography started as far back as I can remember and has now become an extension of who I am. Serving couples from a place of empathy, hospitality, and deeper understanding of who they are and what’s important to them, while providing them a heartfelt piece of their family legacy.

Valerie is absolutely amazing. Obviously her work is so good, but she made the experience so much more! She was so incredibly easy to work with, so timely, couldn’t have been nicer, and overall an amazing photographer. I would choose her a million times over! My dad actually thought she was one of my friends from high school or college, because of how personable she was to all of our friends and family. She listened to everything we wanted and definitely delivered. We had a call a few weeks ago to discuss our timeline and she was so patient and helped us understand how the day would go / what we actually wanted. There were times when I was stressed and I can’t even tell you how calm she was and made us feel. My husband hates having his picture taking and didn’t expect to like the experience very much. He could not stop talking about how comfortable Valerie and her second shooter made him feel. We chose to do super 8 as well and I am so glad we did. I love that she has film option ad ons, as it definitely fit the vibe we were going for. Overall- Valerie is SO great to work with. She is so talented. I would absolutely recommend her- you won’t regret it!!!

Your wedding day is filled with once-in-a-lifetime moments: the quiet nerves, the happy tears, the laughter, and the love that brings everyone together. My passion is capturing those memories in a way that feels natural, meaningful, and true to you. If feeling awkward in front of the camera sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and that’s exactly why my approach is centered on helping you feel comfortable, confident, and fully present on your day. My goal is for you to enjoy every moment while I document your love story as it naturally unfolds. I want you to look back at your photos and not only remember how your wedding looked, but how it felt.

Irina Adams Photography LLC was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. From the very beginning, their communication style was responsive, professional, thorough, and clear. We felt reassured and comforted knowing we made the right choice in hiring them. Irina and her team were reliable and trustworthy, capturing beautiful, amazing, and talented photos throughout our special day. The quality of their work and value they provided was truly excellent. After dealing with some terrible vendors, having Irina Adams Photography as our photographer made me feel so happy and confident that we had made the right decision. I love her work so much that she has also taken my daughter's newborn photos and family Christmas photos. Highly recommend!!!!
