  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Swarthmore, PA

Hey y’all! My name's Gabriella, I love sunshine and I'm a documentary-style wedding & engagement photographer based in Philadelphia. I'm a hopeless romantic and I adore documenting love stories with my camera in a beautiful & compelling way. Basically, I’m a down-to-earth gal from Pennsylvania who got hooked on the travel bug at college in Georgia (go dawgs!!), has a passion for storytelling and absolutely loves love. Running, biking and chasing sunsets are my favorite pastimes. I’m team coffee AND team tea. I dream real big and I’m full of ambition. Oh, and I'm not just you wedding photographer ... I'm your new friend :)

How do we even begin to say how amazing she was? As soon as we saw that Gabriella described her personality as the color yellow, we knew she was the one for us, and she proved time and time again that we were right. From our first zoom call to our finished gallery, she was a joy to work with. She made everything so easy, from questionnaires to our engagement shoot. She made our wedding day feel effortless. We were both worried about being awkward in front of a camera, but she gave lots of wonderful prompts and little games that were easy and fun for us to do, and left us with stunning pictures we were in absolute awe of. Gabriella does everything with such a personalized touch, which really made us feel special. On your big day, she is not just your photographer, she is your biggest fan and the best hype girl you could hope for, and she was willing to help with any aspect of your day, not just pictures. Need a hairpin tucked? Gabriella's got you. Looking for a guest? She is on it! Did you miss the milkshake shots as they went by? Gabby's got your back! From start to finish, Gabriella and her team really were more than we could have ever imagined. Big shoutout to Connie and Sam! Thank you for everything 3

Tara Whited Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,600
  • Serves Swarthmore, PA

Speed date: I love to go thrifting. Schitt’s Creek and HIMYM are two TV shows always on repeat. I really hate cooking. I love brunch and drink way too much coffee. I’m a mom and I’m obsessed with my kid. Words of affirmation & physical touch are my love languages. I have the WORST sense of direction. I try to always do my part to protect our environment. Aries is my zodiac sign. I’m Irish + Greek. I drink coffee like it keeps me alive. Taking a walk is the best way to spend a warm day. Like a true millennial, I have way too many houseplants. Greece, Ireland and Italy are at the top of my travel bucket-list.

When I say I searched high and low for a photographer with vintage style editing like Tara, I mean it. I spent months and months looking. She was always on my radar but was unfortunately booked for our date. After lots of contemplation and talking it over with Tara, we decided to go the route of having a “sub” photographer shoot the day and then Tara would do the editing herself. WOW did that work out for the best. The photographers that came for day of were two INCREDIBLE ladies, one I was highly considering when I found out Tara was booked, the other is now my business brand photographer. I brag all the time about how I was lucky enough to get the “dream team package”. It was like 3 for the price of one. As much as I would have loved to have Tara there on that day, I’m truly thankful for how she made it work in the best way possible. 10/10 recommend Tara!

I am vegan, and I care deeply for social and environmental justice. I love memories, analog media, and romance. I'm Brazilian and now I'm in Philadelphia. I started photography in 2017 when I worked primarily with female portraits. I am transitioning to a new chapter in my life where I moved halfway across the world for love. With that feeling, my desire to do this for others grows.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cauanne is the sweetest vendor we worked with. She treats you like a friend not a client and it makes you feel so special. You can tell she really loves what she does and cares about her work. On the day of our wedding she was amazing, always trying to keep us on the timeline without risking the photos. She gave us access to some photos a few days after the wedding and I already love them, I can’t wait for the rest! She has such a lived in and vintage feel to her photos that I love that so much. We also got super 8 of the day and I can’t wait to see how it turned out!

I’m a wedding and family photographer located in Newtown., PA. Like many good things in life, my love of photography took hold when I least expected it. I was living in New York, meeting new friends, and surrounded by some of the most creative and inspiring people I know. I was studying computer animation at the time, but photography was my excuse to take a break and go outside. After a few months, I knew it was what I wanted to pursue!

Alyssa at Life Like Rubys was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. We had a tiny wedding during COVID and Alyssa enhanced our celebration by being such a warm and sweet presence. Her photos are incredible; we are so so happy and we will treasure the art she created for us forever!

Sharyn Louise Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,900
  • Serves Swarthmore, PA

We only have one life; I believe in making it count, keeping it real, and showing off my terrible dance moves. I love animals, going to shows, eating tacos, cuddling with my children, and traveling. My photography style is raw, real, and authentic. I make it simple for you, keep it light, and focus on the precious candid moments that naturally occur between two people who are madly in love. Years from now, I want you to look at your wedding photographs and have all of those memories come flooding back; the bliss, sentiment, the fun, and laughter!

When searching for a photographer for our wedding, I was immediately drawn to Sharyn’s work. The clear, crisp images, beautiful colors, and candid moments among portraits were exactly what we were looking for. We couldn’t be happier to have chosen her as the photographer for our wedding in October 2023. Leading up the wedding Sharyn was able to answer questions, share ideas, and was responsive along the way. It was super helpful that she was familiar with our venue. She was a great listener and was very attentive to details - anything that mattered to us, mattered to her! On wedding day, she brought a calming energy with thoughtful guidance. This allowed for us to feel comfortable to just be our true selves. She managed to snap incredible shots and important moments without ever taking away from the moment. Sharyn was also SO organized and had all of our requested groups timed out perfectly so that we didn’t feel rushed. In fact, everything was perfectly on time. Sharyn was even thoughtful enough to extend her time with us to capture our “last dance” and sparkler exit - some of our favorite pictures came from these moments, so we are very thankful! We absolutely loved working with Sharyn and her team. She is kind, professional, organized, and someone you can count on to capture even the smallest moments of your most special day. Almost a year later, we can continue to revisit our album and find new hidden gems. We look forward to cherishing these captured memories and sharing them with loved ones for many years to come. Endless thanks to you, Sharyn!

She specializes in engagement shoots, boudoir, rehearsal dinner coverage, elopement, local and travel weddings, as well as day after portrait sessions. WES offers versatile packages & pricing; reach out and speak with Ashley about your needs.

Ashley and Wide Eyed Studios gave us something we couldn't find anywhere else. They were able to capture the totality of our destination wedding experience. On top of that Ashley and Rebecca were able to take the pressure off of couples portraits before the wedding by creating a unique, intimate, striking, outdoor day-after location shoot. This allowed us to enjoy the run up to our wedding with minimal disruptions and gave us a portrait shoot that exceeded our expectations. Having Wide Eyed Studios with us during our entire destination event helped us authentically capture all of the fun moments we had with our friends and family leading up to the wedding. They were able to capture so much more than I had expected, and we now have so much more to look back on with incredible photos. With all of the amazing imagery that was captured, the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception got even more love. The comfort level that was already gained with Ashley having been integrated with the group upleveled all of the content that was captured on wedding day. We are so thankful for all of the moments that were captured. Overall, the entire experience with Ashely and Wide Eyed Studios was so meaningful to us. They felt more a part of our celebration than a vendor we hired to support it. We couldn't have asked for anything more and the pictures we received still make us shake our heads with disbelief. Thank you, Ashley and Wide Eyed Studios for making our destination wedding the best it could possibly be.

Natalie and the team at The Finding Co. were an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first connected, Natalie was super responsive and punctual throughout our whole 1.5 years together planning the big day. On the wedding day itself, Natalie was more than just a photographer - she felt like a part of the bridal party, providing not only beautiful and creative photos but also a source of joy and comfort. Natalie made sure we got all of the shots we wanted, and also offered her own creative ideas to capture our special moments. It ended up raining on our wedding day, but her and her assistant were so comforting while we were stressing about the weather. She worked with the rain and made it look absolutely beautiful in the final product. We were always comfortable during the shoot and thrilled with the quality of Natalie's work, and the value she provided was unparalleled. We couldn't recommend The Finding Co more to any couples looking for an exceptional and creative wedding photography experience.

Hey there! I’m Aubrey, your friendly Delaware County photographer. I’m a classic car loving, Janis Joplin humming twenty-something. I am Mama to two wild boys and wife to a handsome redhead. Photography and the printed image are things that I hold close to my heart, right next to leather jackets, fuzzy dogs, vinyl records, and cheetah print everything. All of this nonsense information about me might not seem important, but trust me, it is. Your photographer should be more than just a somebody who knows their way around a camera— they should be someone you jive with. .

Awarded Best of Zola
I always said that we had to hire a photographer who I'd be comfortable seeing me naked (because, let's be real--chances are your photographer WILL see you at least partially naked at some point on your wedding day; and even if they don't, this is still a pretty good litmus test for how comfy you are with a person, and comfiness matters when it comes to someone whose job it is to make you look not-completely-awkward in photos). Aubrey IS THAT PERSON. Part photographer, part extra bridesmaid, part family drama-destroyer. Just call her a superhero. Also, her photos are perfect. Just do yourself a favor and hire her.

I’m a photographer, mom, wife, snowboarder, roller coaster enthusiast, former math teacher, and former mechanical engineer. I love the process of learning, which led to me earning my Ph.D. (but you don’t have to call me Dr.)! I have an extremely short attention span, am addicted to wearing beanies and headbands, and am fueled by chai tea. I'm socially awkward and I make weird faces when I concentrate to take photos. I dress for comfort and for rolling around on the ground, standing in creeks, and climbing into trees to capture the best angles for my photographs — but I do clean up reasonably well on wedding days!

We’ve all been in front of someone’s iPhone for a photo. You might not think anything of it until you see it later & you don’t look anything like yourself. My mom loves to snap family photos, so I’ve been there. It's terrible for confidence & it's stressful when someone at the party says “let’s take a photo!” I get it. That’s why I do this–for you to see photos of yourself that actually looks right & you see your own lit up smile, you see yourself in that moment and simply how happy you were. I photograph weddings for that freedom & relief that your creativity & mine are working together to craft authentic, artful photographs for you.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I are quite the awkward photo takers and have never felt 100% comfortable during a photoshoot- except with Jenn. She found a way to make us never want to stop taking pictures. Not only does she know what she's doing, she makes it so much fun. Our wedding photos turned out better than we could have ever hoped for. We were so lucky that Jenn was more than willing to travel across the country for our wedding. She's just a photographer, but quite possibly the most important aspect of our big day!

Janine is absolutely incredible to work with! From my initial email request, to the day of our wedding, and even now two years later, Janine has always been responsive, helpful, and amazingly talented. Our communication during the wedding planning process was always quick and extremely helpful. She made sure we were on the same page with our photo timeline for the day of the wedding (even with a few last minute changes the day of!) and visited our reception site a few days before the wedding to search for good photo spots. My fiancé and I knew we wanted a photographer who would capture not only the classic wedding portraits but also the candid, silly, and fun side of the wedding. And oh my goodness did Janine DELIVER! She made us feel super comfortable behind the camera and made sure we quickly but efficiently got through all of our formal shots so that we could have time to enjoy our reception where she captured the moments of love and pure spontaneous joy! We have so many favorite hilarious and lovely photos of moments that we didn't even know were happening until looking at the album months later. Her photography style is also gorgeous! The lighting and colors in our pictures are beyond beautiful and just what I had envisioned when thinking about the perfect wedding photos. She sent us a huge online album with both colored edits as well as black and white ones. We have been able to relive the best moments from the most amazing day ever all thanks to her incredible skills. I can't recommend her to other brides enough and am so excited that she will be photographing both my family friends and my sister in laws weddings this coming year! THANK YOU JANINE!

I’m Mike Williams, the guy behind the lens at DigitalFirst Photography. I currently live right outside of Philadelphia, and serve the entire tri-state area. DigitalFirst Photography was started in 2006 while I was in college. I always loved cameras and movies, but never really knew where to begin. So, I bought a camera and just started taking photos of whatever I could. One wedding turned into two, which turned into four, and so on and so forth. After 17 years and more than 800 weddings, I still love capturing moments in time. After your wedding day, all you really have left are your photos and videos. Let's make memories together!

Love working with Mike, he’s easy going and fun but professional!

Hi! I'm Meghan. I've had a love for photography since my parents bought me my first camera for Christmas in 2001. I took pictures of anyone and anything that sat still for more than .03 seconds. The more pictures I took, the more I loved it. It became a passion of mine, but it wasn't until later that I had the dream of starting my own business. In the meantime, I teach middle school - 7th grade Language Arts to be exact. Yes, it's exactly as crazy as you're imagining, likely even more so. Teaching has taught me two things: patience and how to laugh at myself.

Working with Meghan is always a treat. Clients love her because she is high-energy, hilarious, and just amazing behind the lens. Meghan has a creative eye for those candid moments and really captures the most important moments on a wedding day. Seeing her work first-hand, it's beautiful. Her images truly reflect the emotions shared between two people. I'm constantly amazed and inspired by her work. There is a reason she is my favorite photographer to work with. She knows how to read a room and a situation, so nothing gets missed. Wedding days go by quickly, but with Meghan, they go by even quicker because you're having so much fun. She's like that extra wedding party member you didn't know you needed. She's got your back. If you're looking for professionalism, stunning photos, and a good time, you want Meghan Luckenbill.

An open-minded creative with a love for love. Nice to meet you, I'm Liz! I'm a traveling wedding and portrait photographer based on the East Coast. My photography style can be described as classic, true to color, and candid imagery with an artistic focus.

Liz fell into my lap when my previous photographer had to cancel on me for my wedding. I had looked over Liz’s work and I will say, she was the only photographer I contacted who set up a FaceTime with me! Which I felt was so personal and we got to really chat. We clicked right away & I felt like I made a friend as well! She was so easy going to work with & was SO fun too! The turnaround time on our full gallery? The fastest. The gallery?! ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. So stunning! Liz caught so many fantastic moments. What a true blessing in disguise and having the ability to work with her!!

I’ve been photographing weddings for 11 years and I have so much love for this career. Weddings are never the same and it really keeps you on your toes. I still find myself tearing up during vows or parent dances, still always leave the day feeling like I am so blessed to do what I do. I love challenging myself to really capture the day in an unfolding storytale way so that when my clients look back at their photos, it feels like they’re right back in those moments.

Nellie did an amazing job for our wedding. The day of the wedding, her calming, relaxed presence made our day even more enjoyable. She delivered our photos quickly and we loved them all! She captured the joy and happiness we had on that day in a way we didn’t even know was possible. We would recommend her to anyone!! Loved Nellie!

Bill was amazing: professional but friendly. Really took time to hear about my vision for the photography. He also provided a script of which photos he would take and in which order, but he was open to me adjusting the script to fit my needs. He visited the ceremony and reception sites in advance to scope them out, and he told me about how the sunlight affected the timing of what photos he took where. He was also great fun taking engagement photos. I could not have asked for a better wedding photographer.
