Once Like a Spark Wedding Co. was an incredible choice for our wedding photography. Their communication was quick and helpful from the very beginning - they were always available to answer any questions I had. The quality of their work was truly stunning, with gorgeous posed photos as well as amazing candids that captured all the special moments of our day. The whole OLAS team was so supportive and made me feel comfortable in front of the camera. It was also super convenient to bundle the photography, videography, and DJ services through them at an amazing price compared to booking each service separately. I'm thrilled with the beautiful memories they were able to capture of our wedding day.

I didn’t expect to be so emotional looking at my wedding photos, but wow. Every single picture tells a story. From getting ready with my girls to the last dance, it’s all there. The smiles, the happy tears, the goofy moments all of it. I still can’t believe how beautiful they made our small venue look. The colors are so vibrant but still soft and romantic. Even my dad, who hates photos, said they’re the best he’s ever seen. These pictures are going to be in our family forever. I can’t thank them enough!

Love Knot Photography

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
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His 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. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

We had a great experience with Amative Creative for our wedding! One thing that really made them stand out was that they offer so many different editing styles to choose from, so we were able to pick exactly the look we wanted. They also got our photos back to us super quickly—about a week after the wedding—which was such a nice surprise. The photos turned out beautiful and they captured all the big moments and some great candid shots. I especially love how cool the dance floor shots turned out. We received tons of compliments on the pictures! Highly recommend!

The communication leading up to the day was incredible- we had our own text chain with the whole team and could ask questions at any point. They were constantly communicating amongst themselves the day of, to keep our day on track but also willing to switch directions on things if needed and took any suggestions we had to heart. We received our engagement pics back within a week and received our wedding pictures back in under 2 weeks and were blown away at what they captured. Truly an amazing team to work with- I'd hire them again a million times!
