Hi, I am Jessica, Owner and lead photographer at ATP! This year marks 10 years of being in business and I still love what I do! Photography has been something I have loved since I was a 9 year old kid, I just got lucky enough to make it a career. Weddings and Elopements are import life events that we can't redo. That is just one reason I am passionate about creating classic images that can be cherished for years to come. I want clean, classic images that can stand the test of time and take you back to your big day. I want you to look at them and remember the laughter, love, and all the smiles you had to come back in a flood of joy.

ATP did our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos. Jessica's attention to detail elevated the photos from good to excellent. ATP provided a packet to get to know us better and understand what we envisioned for our day. The time line ATP provided was so welcomed. It helped us to have a clear idea of the day and everything was as stress free as possible. Jessica was very personable and ensured everyone was where they needed to be for photos but also for the ceremony. ATP was a huge part of part of the best day.

At the age of 19 I left my small, strange hometown of Branson, Missouri to see the world. I began taking photos as a way to capture everything I was seeing. During this nomadic season, I continuously developed my style while creating as many new experiences as possible. While hitchhiking through New Zealand in 2014, I met the love of my life. Her name is Indy. After years of long distance and visa paperwork, we got married in 2019. We now are lucky enough to capture other folk's love story.

She was such a joy to work with from the beginning consultation call, to answering my questions throughout the wedding planning process, to the installation on our wedding day.

I had a specific theme and vision of what I wanted in mind, and she executed it perfectly and even did it better than I could have dreamed of! The week of our wedding, we had to change all of our ceremony plans to accommodate for storms. Charity was very flexible and encouraging and was willing to change plans according to what we needed for the weather while still giving me exactly what I wanted, despite the last minute change. I did not have to stress about how it would look because I knew it was all in expert and professional hands. After the wedding, I received countless compliments on how beautiful everything was from our wedding guests. I am so grateful I hired Charity! She has such a talent for what she does, pays close attention to detail, has such a kind and caring heart, and is one of the best choices I made while wedding planning!

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

We can't recommend OLAS enough! Our photographer, Victoria, was amazing—super bubbly and made us feel comfortable right away during both our engagement and wedding shoots. She was so fun to work with while remaining highly professional and knowledgeable. The variety in our photos was incredible, but some of my favorites were the natural ones that perfectly captured our personalities. The rest of the OLAS team was also fantastic, helping us develop a detailed timeline and sharing portfolios of potential photographers to choose from. We received our photos quickly, and they were beautifully edited and of exceptional quality. Be sure to check out OLAS—and definitely ask for Victoria!

Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Jenna the dj kept the party hopping all night! She literally was so great in ensuring the guests were kept in the loop the entire night. The couple loved x files and she was made aware and went out of her way to play the x files theme song as a surprise for them. Also, there was an inside joke with a cardboard cutout of Danny Devito. When they did a couples dance she even joked about how if someone didn’t have a partner they could dance with Danny. She was very personable and even helped clear plates in her free time. In addition, there was an issue where the hired officiant didn’t show up on time. I called Live Events as a back up and the owner Dennis told me he was an hour and a half away at another wedding but would come immediately. He rushed to our aid even when I told him the other officiant finally showed up. He showed up ready to help in any way he could. This company is top notch in all they do. Professional, polite, friendly, fun and ready to exceed your expectations. The only mistake you could make on your wedding day would be not hiring them.

Jen was AMAZING to work with! When it came to flowers for my wedding, I had NO IDEA what I wanted. She was very patient with me and helped talk me through my vision. She gave me flowers to pick from, talked about how big I wanted my bouquet and how much greenery I wanted, and then when I could find colors I liked in swatches, she color-matched the colors I wanted from an inspo pic I found online! She was very professional and patient with me, even when my plans changed or I needed to add to my order.  I am not the best at putting together a bouquet. I am also someone who likes control, especially when it came to planning my wedding. I was thankful that I was able to give Jen the reins, tell her what I wanted, and watch her make my dreams come true. When I first saw my flowers, I was speechless. She truly did make my floral dreams come true, and now I get to keep my bouquet for the rest of my life! A wooden flower bouquet from Jen is the way to go!

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
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

In fact, I haven't even gotten the final album for our wedding yet (just previews) and i'm STILL impressed! If you have the opportunity to work with this team, take it. I couldn't recommend them enough.

HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts! (But I mean who isnt! I just cant help it!) FUN FACT: I speak switzerdütsch, aka a German slang. My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

Hiring Ashley was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She’s bubbly, kind, and makes you feel like you’ve been friends forever. The day of our wedding went by so fast, but every single image she captured brings me back in an instant. She not only captured our love story, but captured our friends and family beautifully. Every silly moment, tender exchange and happy tear was published in our gallery — and for that, I am forever grateful. THANK YOU Ashley & Meredith, our wedding day was all the more special with your talent!

We booked Teyanna in 2022 for our August 2024 wedding and did not regret it one bit. It was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Teyanna was beyond accommodating and informative throughout the entire process. Her precise, creative, and professional "client-first" mentality shone through. From countless Zoom calls to meeting up in person to select flowers, it was more than we could have asked for and were expecting. Her professionalism and creativity showed through when we had to improvise our outdoor ceremony to an indoor one thanks to a horrific tropical storm. She called us on the morning of our wedding to ensure we were doing okay and went over every detail with both my husband and me to make sure she and her team didn't miss anything. We cannot wait to work with Teyanna again in the future.

I had the pleasure of working with Brooklyn Rain Brides LLC on several occasions, and Brooklyn consistently impressed me with her top-tier communication, quick responsiveness, and professional yet friendly approach. The quality of her work is amazing - she is well-organized, detail-focused, and excellent at maintaining communication with all vendors. For the styled shoots that I worked with at, Brooklyn expertly handled the setup, controlled all the details, and ensured seamless coordination with everyone involved. I can't wait to collaborate with them again on a real wedding day and see their magic in action once more.

5 Thousand Frames Films provided us with the best videography service we could have asked for on our wedding day. Their communication style was fantastic - they didn't overwhelm us with too many questions, and instead proposed perfect ideas to capture all the special moments. The quality of their work is unmatched, a solid 100 out of 5! They created an incredible same-day-edit video that was shown at the end of our wedding, and the quality, plot, music, and framing were all flawless. While I was getting ready, the videographer even took it upon himself to shoot all the necessary footage of the background details. I highly recommend 5 Thousand Frames Films - you're guaranteed to have the best experience, as their professionalism and quality of work is simply outstanding.

In addition, we offer a range of services such as extended hours and the option of a second videographer to ensure every detail is captured flawlessly. Check out our website and Instagram for more information!

We could not recommend Flower Oak more! Mark and his team were incredible throughout the booking process and answered all of our questions in such a timely manner. We booked them 18 months before our wedding date and they continued to check in periodically to be sure we didn’t need anything. Prior to the wedding, they have you fill out a pdf with all important information, preferences, etc which they follow exactly! The day of, we had Jesse as our videographer, and he was wonderful! He was timely, kind, professional, and fit right in with our group. He traveled to multiple locations with us to capture all aspects of our day. He independently got with our photographers and DJ to ensure everything worked well together. We just got our films back (only 8 weeks from the wedding) and they are STUNNING! The highlight film reflects our day perfectly and the editing is just perfect. The documentary edit is a great way to relive the day from start to finish. Not to mention it is so fun and amazing to have access to all the raw footage; there are so many tiny clips that we have found and truly love all of them. The audio quality is top notch. As a team, Flower Oak is truly amazing. We couldn’t have imagined our day filmed in any other way and now we have it forever to remember! Highly recommend!
