Oury Memories

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Ruidoso Downs, NM

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!

Oury Memories provided fantastic wedding photography for our special day. Grace was extremely responsive and dedicated throughout the planning process, taking time to understand our vision and priorities for capturing the event. On the wedding day itself, Grace and her team went above and beyond to get creative shots, even climbing on chairs and furniture 7 months pregnant! We're so grateful we chose Oury Memories to document memories we'll treasure forever.

From the moment we reached out to Birchfields, their communication was quick, thorough, and sincere. Their attention to detail and ability to make us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera resulted in exceptional photographs that captured every special moment of our wedding day. Birchfields truly went above and beyond, taking unique angles and perspectives that allowed us to relive the entire day through their stunning imagery.

We could not be happier with the final product and would highly recommend Steve to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable wedding photographer.

  • Serves Ruidoso Downs, NM

I'm an experienced wedding photographer who is passionate on capturing all details about my client's weddings. When your wedding is over, your photos & memories are what you will keep forever. This is what you will show your children and grand children about your special day.

Jesus was phenomenal to work with and overall Heras Creative LLC went beyond any epectations we could have had. First ande foremost he was very easy tonwork with as we wanted to make sure we had a LGBTQ friendly photgrapher! No complaints no issues there. He treated us like any other client. Also the pricing, wow! we went with their wedding package. It's fair, actually it much more than fair for the quality of the product, customer service, and overall professionalism that you recieve. Jesus is approachable, knowledgeable, and skilled. Taking photos and posing can be awkward but it felt very organic under his instruction. Plus the pictures, gosh were they pretty. If he makes a recommendation for the time of day, pose, or lighting PLEASE take it! Our guests LOVED every picture. You won't regret it. Our court had nothing but positive feedback. And let me tell you I was surprised by some of the moments he caught because the stress was high and myself and my husband were CONSTANTLY on the move. I can't thank him enough. I mean he was so impressive that one of our bridesmaids asked for his information and wants him for her upcoming wedding. We are all in with Heras Creative. At this point they will be our go to for any and every photo op. If you're looking for, quality. If your looking for quantity. If your looking for professionalism. If your looking for overall great people. You should be looking into working with Heras Creative

Jay Dee Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,800
  • Serves Ruidoso Downs, NM for additional fees

A Charleston Wedding Photographer with a fierce love for storytelling, fostering memories and capturing those moments that you will want to treasure forever. I get to tell your story. And, I think that’s pretty cool. I love traveling everywhere and anywhere, talking with my hands, buying plants (and attempting to keep them alive), and spending as much time as I can with my loved ones. I have lived in Boston, Paris, and New York City, and am now lucky enough to call Charleston home, while also still traveling the world for my clients. You can usually find me on my back porch in downtown Charleston, right next to my favorite little park.

tldr: Jessica is amazing and I don’t think you can go wrong with her if this is the style of photos you like I had a lot of difficulty picking a photographer as I’m pretty picky with photos. I knew I wanted something bright and light, with kind of a whimsical or ethereal vibe, but it was really hard finding the style until I came across the “fine art” style. Jessica’s name came up while researching this style and I decided to reach out to her among a few other fine art photographers. I definitely hoped talks would go well with Jessica as the others I contacted ended up either not responding or were wildly out of my budget. Pre-Planning: Jessica was wonderful throughout this process. She promptly responded to my emails and answered questions clearly. I never felt like I was left in the dark for any part of the process. When I sent her the timeline of the ceremony/reception, she quickly came up with a timeline to slot in all the photos to be taken ahead of time at the location (We had access to the venue for a little over an hour prior to the ceremony). She also asked for a list of family photos that we wanted to take. This made it very easy at the wedding as she could call out people’s name to make sure everyone that was supposed to be in the pictures, were in the pictures. Jessica also sent over a list of ideas for detail shots and explained she could do this ahead of time. We didn’t want extra pictures of these and decided against it, however, I still thought it was very thoughtful of her to offer. Wedding Day: I loved her energy at the wedding. She was very calm and felt very competent. She directed my husband and I throughout the pictures, showing us poses etc. During family and wedding party photos, even though we had many bodies to fit in the frame in quite a few pictures, she led us through them with ease and the entire experience was very stress free (or as stress free as can be at a wedding lol). The venue was quite dim at specific locations, but the final results did not reflect that at all. The pictures were bright and did not look like they were taken in the dark at all. (This is a little off topic but I loved the little apron with pockets she wore for her equipment. So cute) I’m not sure when Jessica had the time, but there were pictures around the venue which were so beautiful. I definitely feel like the day was captured through the pictures. Post Wedding: Jessica sent us a sneak peak 2 days after the wedding containing 23 pictures. They turned out great and were beautiful. You can see examples on her website so I won’t elaborate, but they really are that good. The full gallery was sent almost a month after the wedding (minus 2 days) with instructions on purchasing prints or an album attached. The full download contained 650ish files, including the sneak peek pictures. Half of which were black and white, so this matched up pretty perfectly with Jessica’s estimation of the amount of photos when we spoke in the pre-planning stage.

I'm Meghan Ann Imagery! I'm an artist, storyteller, and lover of love. It's fitting I ended up as a wedding photographer, right? I'm based in Connecticut but wishing for the dream inquiries that will send me to Alaska, Colorado, or some place new.

Meghan was such a pleasure to work with and we kept saying over and over again throughout the wedding process, “We are so how grateful we booked her!” Literally you ask any of our family and friends what was the phrase we said the most throughout our wedding process was, “We absolutely love our photographer!” She made us feel relaxed throughout the entire process and truly helped us get not just the photos that we desired but BEYOND that. She is an absolute artist at finding the perfect shot and her positive attitude helps you feel at peace while you’re planning all the details of your wedding day. I can not recommend Meghan and her team enough. Absolute professionals!

I have been obsessed with the look in a person's eyes when they look at the one they love, and the way a father looks when he passes his daughter on to her new husband since the first wedding I attended. I am here to bring your vision to life, and to have a little fun at the same time. If I am not at a wedding I am probably in the mountains somewhere eating ice cream and spending time with my boyfriend and our two dogs. I'm based out of Colorado but travel everywhere. I love chicken nuggets, a good book, art museums, ice cream, Snoop Dogg and colored bridal gowns.

We worked with Tyler Paige Photography on a wedding last year and I was absolutely blown away by the photographs that we got back. Not only was the love of the couple so perfectly captured, but we received so many gorgeous photos of our flowers!
