Julianne Drake Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Cottondale, FL

I’m Juls Drake, a documentary-style photographer with an eye for emotion and a draw to film-like dreaminess. I have 5+ years of wedding photography experience and have had the honor of documenting hundreds of amazing couples since. It is such an honor and privilege to capture the unique happiness and energy of your special day. An investment in your memories is truly priceless. I deliver images that embody the essence of your love for generations to come. Your memories are absolutely worth it. I won't just be delivering a gallery that shows you how your wedding day LOOKED, but how it FELT.

We couldn't be happier with our decision to choose Juls for our wedding! Since we live in Nashville, it was so hard for me to find vendors— especially as our wedding was on Mother’s Day! From the very first email, Julianne and I connected and she was so professional, attentive, and genuinely passionate about capturing our special day. On the day of the wedding, she was such a calming presence, seamlessly blending into the background while capturing every important moment with such artistry and detail. My husband was so incredibly nervous and shy, but she made him feel so comfortable and not at all out of his element. I also absolutely adored her enthusiasm over all the amazing pictures she was taking of us and it was so obvious she enjoyed every second of our day along with us. The photos are absolutely stunning and perfectly encapsulate the love, joy, and magic of our celebration. We are so grateful for the beautiful memories that Juls has preserved for us. If you're looking for a talented and dedicated wedding photographer, look no further! Highly recommend.

Walsh Collective

Walsh Collective is a husband and wife photo/video team based out of Destin Florida. Hey, we’re Tabitha and Kevin, and we’re here to celebrate you no matter what you choose. We’ve documented large weddings at the most sought-after Florida venues, intimate beach elopements along the Florida coast, and everything in between.

I was drawn to Tabitha due to our mutual obsession with Harry Potter and as I expected, it was the best decision we could have made. We got married back in September and not only did Tabitha have a sneak peek available the VERY NEXT DAY but had our full album over to us in less than a month. Both our engagement and wedding photos look like they are straight out of a bridal magazine which isn't just my opinion, but our friends and family as well! She was a joy to work with, exceeding all our expectations. Tabitha is fun, quirky and will do anything to make sure you are comfortable. It was almost 90 degrees on our wedding day, so she suggested we take some photos in the bridal loft (which was beautiful) to stay cool. Not only did she stop us from miserably sweating, but the photos are just stunning. If you are uncomfortable taking photos, I promise Tabitha can put you at ease. Always trust the photographer! I cannot recommend her enough!!

Edwin made our special day very magical and delivered us a film that went above and beyond what we expected. On the day of our wedding, he helped us feel comfortable and set the mood just right with his guided interview. He also provided the idea for us to write letters to each other on our Wedding Day in addition to our vows, which was very sweet and clever. Since we eloped with absolutely no guests in attendance, this was truly a perfect way to give our loved ones the feeling of being there. Edwin's film captured the euphoria we felt on that day just wondefully. I highly recommend Parallax Intellect's wedding filmography. Originally, we were honestly not sure if it was something that we were super interested in doing. But even in initial communications, Edwin was thorough, polite, and reassuring that we would have everything exactly as we wanted. It was well worth the investment, and my wife and I couldn't possibly praise his work enough for how awesome he did with everything.

I am so glad you're here! I LOVE my family and I am OBSESSED with anything Kate Spade and if I could live in yoga pants, I would. My favorite thing to do other than photography is cook. I am lucky my husband and kiddos love eating as much as they do! We love the beach and anything Disney! I fully believe in having ice cream for breakfast and I cannot pass by a good Italian restaurant without going in. My heart melts when my boy says I love you or kisses my cheek. Being a photographer has allowed me to freeze some of our sweetest moments and I hope to be able to do that for you. xoxo

I don’t have enough words to describe how much we love Lauren! We were recommended by a friend to Lauren for our wedding in 2017. We had met with 8 (yes eight!!) photographers before Lauren and from the minute we sat down with her, we knew she was special. Her attention to detail and care about us and our family was exceptional. I don’t even really remember seeing my own wedding planner more than twice on my wedding day but Lauren was there every second keeping me calm and making sure I was ready for every moment of the day and night. A few weeks after our wedding, we received our photos and my husband and i cried tears of joy looking through the best day of our lives. Your wedding is the fastest day of your life and to be able to relive it from the outside through these amazing photos was the best gift we could receive. Since 2017, we have used Lauren for ALL of our family shoots for holidays and special occasions. We will never look elsewhere. Do yourself a favor and contact Lauren! It will be the best decision you will ever make for your wedding!!

I don’t even know where to begin…. My wife and I finally decided to have a wedding, and I took it upon myself to search high and low for a photographer that matched the look & feel that I envisioned (just me, not my wife, lol) for our wedding day. I’m not sure how we stumbled across Evermore Photography page but I thank the universe DAILY for them. When I tell you I was obsessed with their photography, I was OBSESSED. We had our initial call with Jess and from that day on we were inseparable. Last minute, my wife and I decided to take engagement photos ( a little less than two months prior to the wedding) so of course we harassed Jess for available dates. We decide on a location and her and her husband met us. First time meeting in person and the energy was the same as over the phone. I was overly excited to begin the session and of course the photos were stunning to say the very least. The wedding day 2/4/2024… when I say Jess knew my exact vision for the photographs without me even speaking… Jess knew!! Evermore captured every little detail and more. My wife & I can relive our wedding with cease simple by our wedding photos. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I still brag that I chose the best photographers, LOL

Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.

Hi! I’m Gabriela, but you can call me Gaby! I’ve been a photographer and storyteller for more than seven years. It’s something I’ve always been passionate about… Creating Art. I know love, I know how deep it is and I can see the undeniable connection between two people. I’ve always believed we all should love WITHOUT FEAR. I want my photography to be a storytelling, natural, authentic, and timeless piece of art that reflects what’s truly there. To make love transcend the screen and make people feel it, because… Love has NO BOUNDARIES.

Finding the right wedding photographer was incredibly important to us. We needed someone whose style and art matched our vision. Thankfully we found Gabriela. As soon as we saw her work and explored her page we knew she was a perfect fit. With our wedding being a destination wedding, communication was no issue. She made us feel comfortable and understood our vision perfectly. On our wedding day Gaby was amazing!! She blended into the background capturing all the special moments without us even noticing. I'm so glad we were able to enjoy our day without having to think of photos we needed since Gaby was able to capture every smile, hugs and intimate moments. After the wedding Gaby was so quick with delivering sneak peek photos and even quicker with the finished gallery. Each picture brings us back to that day, and we can feel the emotions all over again. I wholeheartedly recommend Gabriela for your special day. Thank you so much for giving us such wonderful memories to last us forever.

We are absolutely obsessed with our wedding photos and videos! This team seriously brought their A-game and made our special day even more magical. From the start, they were super chill and easy to work with. On the big day, they were like ninjas, capturing every awesome moment without being in the way. They have such a knack for finding those perfect, candid shots that totally show the real us. Plus, the way they set up the posed photos. When we got our photos and the video, we couldn't stop smiling and laughing. They caught all the love, laughter, and even the crazy dance moves (hello, epic dance party!). The highlight reel was like a mini movie of the best day ever—we’ve already watched it a million times! The whole experience was just fun and stress-free, thanks to their good vibes and clear communication. They really listened to what we wanted and made sure we felt comfortable and relaxed. Thank you guys !

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

Jarrod and his wife, Taylor, are truly a dream to work with! My husband and I really wanted some simple engagement photos taken, but were reluctant because we’re not totally comfortable in front of the camera and didn’t want the poses/photos to look cheesy. Taylor gave us plenty of suggestions to pose us naturally and kept us laughing which put us at ease immediately. Jarrod was such a professional and really worked every angle and background to make it look like we spent an entire day shooting. The editing was super crisp and clean and the photos came back incredibly quickly. They far exceeded our expectations and we can’t thank them enough for giving us beautiful, lasting memories from such an important time in our lives. This couple is seriously amazing - genuine, fun, and experts at what they do!! Book them!

Searching for a wedding photographer can be really overwhelming but finding Madison was the best thing that could have happen to us! She was absolutely amazing—so sweet and attentive. She took our engagement and wedding photos and we are blown away at her skills. All her photos turn out bright and beautiful, capturing every moment perfectly. My husband and I have different styles in photos but she took the time to understand our preferences and made sure to photograph everything just the way we wanted. We are very awkward in front of the camera and never know how to pose… but her instructions make it easy and seem like we are naturals. We 10000/10 recommend Madison as your wedding photographer. She’s a true gem!

Our style is artistic and documentary, and can be described in three words; Sincere, Scenic, and Inspirational. Sincere, we will never ask you to act unnaturally in front of our camera; we will adjust to your personalities and photograph you as you are. Scenic, because we love beautiful landscapes and love to incorporate everyone in such environments. Inspirational, because there is always a new way or a new idea to capture a photo but in the end it's capturing that special moment.

Sam was super talented and professional and made our day special by keeping everything organized and timely to make sure it didn’t impact our schedule. His artistic taste helped create great photos and poses. Definitely booking him again for our next special event
