The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted. Alec truly went above and beyond, and we had such a great time working with him. I'm obsessed with the pictures and would give him an 11/10 rating!

Love Knot Photography

  • Serves Stratford, IA

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
Isaac’s 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.

Weddings are filled with moments of joy, laughter, and love, and I believe in honoring every genuine connection and fleeting glance that happens throughout the day. Every couple has a unique story, and my goal is to help you relive yours for years to come through images that evoke the same emotions you felt on your wedding day.

Hi, I'm Jess, and I run Jessica Smith Visual Arts, a professional photography business in the Quad-Cities area! I specialize in many forms of photography that is tailored to you and your theme with top notch quality!

When we were looking for a photographer we were struggling so much to find someone that wouldnt break the bank, but wouldn't deliver crappy pictures either. When we found Jessica Boone Visual Arts, we were so excited to get such a reasonable price. I got even more excited when I spoke with her, because I am telling you, it was some of the best customer service I have ever had. Always willing to answer questions or make time for me whenever I needed whether it was a phone call or email. Jessica Boone did our engagement and our wedding photos. I was absolutely blown away with not only how the pictures turned out but also how patient, helpful, and fun she was!! After seeing only a few of our engagement photos, I knew I needed her for our big day. Jessica worked with me and made sure everything was perfect! (She and her assistant even helped with my dress SEVERAL times throughout the day! Oh, and fixing my husbands crooked bowtie.) All of our guests keep commenting on how jaw-droppingly beautiful our winter wedding photos are. I truly believe Jessica Boone is one of the most creative and talented photographers in the area! She will work with you on your dream photos... whether it's location, style, or simply being great in front of the camera. Thank you again Jessica for the most beautiful photos I get to enjoy forever. We would rate you 100 on a scale of 1-5, seriously.

We are passionate about photographing kind-hearted people who are unapologetically themselves, and creating a safe and beautiful space in the wedding world for LGBTQ+ folx. Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

Awarded Best of Zola
When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

I’m Alyssa. You can call me Lys. (It rhymes with Kiss) ☺ I'm a photographer based in Des Moines, Iowa. I travel often. Couples, elopements, and small weddings are my speciality. My style leans documentary, timeless, and sincere, with some avant-garde editorial vibes, artsy influences, and good old fashioned weirdness mixed in. I love color, flash, film, and all things non-traditional. I got my start in music photography, which greatly informs my shooting style, and have been documenting Iowa's music scene and touring with bands for over 10 years!

I'm a micro-wedding venue owner and I recently hosted a gorgeous LGBTQ+ styled shoot. From beginning to end Alyssa was a pleasure to work with. She initiated correspondence - including overall vision, clear expectation, and a comprehensive schedule for all vendors. Her ability to pull a vision together and pay attention to detail are equally strong. She had the ability to manage a project while simultaneously making all vendors and models feel comfortable. She excels at bringing out the most of her models & left the venue in great condition. I will not hesitate to work with Alyssa again - She's an absolute pleasure!

Hey there! Since you are trusting me to capture these special moments in your life, I figured you should probably know a bit about me, right? I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

She made us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire day, and her professionalism and attention to detail were unmatched. She went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, and it truly shows in the final results. If you're looking for a photographer who is passionate, creative, and dedicated to capturing your most special moments, look no further than Diana Marie Photography.

You know that feeling when you meet someone that feels like a genuine ray of sunshine? That's Kendra. The wedding and reception went by so fast, the photos we received afterwards are almost as precious as the day itself.

We are so happy we chose Lucia to capture our elopement. Lucia is professional, fast to respond to emails and texts, helpful with decisions, accommodating to any requests, concerns, and excited to give advice. Duncan and I really wanted our photographer to capture our true emotion and to get candids of us, and Lucia DID THAT! The day felt blissful and a key point for us was that we got to enjoy the day without it feeling solely like a photoshoot which I think speaks to Lucias talent and confidence in her craft. She was good at giving guiding advice for posing without us feeling posed. I put together a Pinterest board and shot list which she really did a great job pulling inspiration from. The photos are stunning and the exact style we envisioned. Also, our sneak peak was huge and she got them to us very fast. If you are torn between photographers or are just starting your research, you're in very safe hands to stop here. We hope to continue reaching out to Lucia in the future when we start a family.
